positions of the British in that re
gion last night, the War Office an
nounced today, but the attack was
repulsed.
‘ Elsewhere, the official report stated,
‘the position on the Britieh front is
unchanged,
‘ For many days and nights there
‘has been great activity in the zone of
operations flanking the Albert-Ba
paume highway, north of Pozleres.
The Germans, alarmed by the loss of
trenches on the 160-yard high ridge,
have been making desperate counter
attackge but these have all proved
failures. Not only were they repulsed,
but the British have advanced their
lines still farther, principally by the
use of bombs. |

Flour Situation Also Subject ot
Investigation—Bread Prices
Are Being Watched.
(By International News Service.)
CHICAGO, Aug. 12-—Announce
ment that the Federal authorities
have an investigation under way to
determine if there has been manipu
lation in the recent skyrocket ad
vance In the price of wheat has re
vealed the fact that agents for the
Department of Justice for some time
have been checking up the wheat in
storage in the Northwest.
Men sent out by Hinton G. Cla
baugh, chief investigator for the De
partment of Justice here, a week be
fore the hullish Government crop re
port was made public, found there
will be 654,000,000 bushels of ,wheat
from this year's crop. Of the 1915
crop millers and dealers held out
160,000,00¢ bushels. The annual home
consumption lis about 620,000,000
bushels, Approximately 200,000,000
bushels can be exported without en
dangering the home supply, according
te these investigators.
. United States District Attorney
Clyne, who is conducting the investi
gation, also is looking into the flour
situation and a reported plan here to
Increase bread prices. Master bakers
declare the nickel loaf is a thing of
the past--that it costs just as much
so wrap and handle §5-cent as 10-cent
lnav?, and they expect to make their
profit in the future on the larger loaf.

From Heart Attack
(By International News Service.)
CHICAGO, Aug. 12.-—Funeral ar
rangements for Dr. John B. Murphy,
noted surgeon, who died yesterday:at
Mackinac Island, were being made to
day as the funeral party was speed
ing toward Chicago from the Michi
gan resort. It is probable that serv
fces will be held in Holy Name Ca
thedral, and that Archbishop Munde
lein will officiate. Mrs. Murphy was
the only member of the family with
the surgeon when he succumbed to a
heart attack, brought on by a long,
busy life of hard work and the recent
hot wave. Announcement of his death
was a shock to Chicago, as well as to
the medical world, as he was known
wherever advances In surgery are
known.
Dr. Murphy was 59 years old., He
was educated In Chicago and Ger
many, was president of the Medical
Asgociation in 1913, and was recipient
of the order of the Knighthood of St.
