associate Justice of the supreme court Of
the United States and the famous com
mcntator on the constitution. He gradu-

lion largely to the preparation Of law re-

Of both prose and verse TO the Boston Mis-
oellany and other periodicals.
Mr.. Story was the poet of his class, and
in 1874 he delivered the Phi Beta Kappa

In 1913 his fondness for art led to his

The Prospects Are That There WIN Not Be

Enough Cars to Move Them.
KANSAS CITY, Oct. S--Within the next
60 days there is likely TO be a car famine
on the western railways The movement
Of the crops is already taxing some OF the
lines to their full capacity, and shippers
are being urged to unload cars promptly
j. II. Veitch, division freight and passen-
ger agent of the Chicago, Milwaukee and
St. Paul, said:
Although we have 2s, 600 freight cars
Of our own and several thousand more un-
der lease, our system is l. 200 cars short
already. A present we are making strenu-
Gus efforts to handle the wheat crop of the
northwest, and every car that can be
spared from the various divisions is being
used in that service. The Iowa and Ne
braska corn crops will shortly begin to
move, and then we will get swamped un-
less additional cars can be secured. A
good share of the Kansas corn crop will
have to pass over the Milwaukee also. We
expect TO have our hands full rs far as
freight is concerned for a year to come"

arbitration, and requested the men
not to violate any law nor allow them
selVesto unduly excite passion during the
continuance of the strike. The remarks
were received with cheers, and express
sions of determination to persevere
peaceably were very generally ex-
pressed.
Tuesday evening the strikers held a
meeting down town in one of the halls.
They organized into body and the
work of the day was outlined. A COM
mittee had telephone tee Trades &
Labor council in Racine to keep men
away and similar actions had been TAX
en- with reference to Chicago and Mil
waukee. Committees were then appoint
ed to patrol the Brassville district to
see to it that no violence or law break
ing went on and to peaceably talk to
the rest of the men who remained at
work to see if they would not join in
the strike, and another for the depot to
stop any laborers who might arrive and
tell them of the situation of affairs, and
if possible, secure their return. These
committees are about their duties today.
The decision was arrived at this
morning to continue the procession at
about the same hour each day. The men
propose to stick together until theyeither
win or lose completely. The sympathy
of the entire community seems to be
with them.
Another meeting was called for /
o'clock this afternoon at the orchard.
Mayor Takes Hand.
Mayor Farr took a hand in the
matter this morning by requesting the
state board of arbitration to come here
to see if it could do anything in the
matter. He sent the following letter:
Mayors Office, Kenosha, Wiscon-
sin. To the State Board Of Arbitration
and Cancellation. Gentlemen: It has
been made to appear to the under
signed, the mayor of the city of Keno
sha, that a strike of certain of the en-
ployes of the Chicago Brass company,
to the number of about eighty, has
actually occurred in the city of Keno
Sha.
I" 1t has been further made to appear
to the undersigned, the mayor Of the
city of Kenosha, that the cause Of said
strike is a disagreement between said
employees and the Chicago Brass COM
pany as to the wages Of such en-
ployes, the employees claiming that liv-
ing wages are not being paid them by
said company.
"That said strike involves the bust
ness interests of the city of Kenosha,
and it is my desire that your board in
vestigate the same as provided by Sec
ton 9, of chapter 1854, Of the laws OF
Wisconsin for the year 1895.

THE COMMITTEE CALLS.
And Finds Mr.. futile Out of The City.

AAu Illus IA4' uUG4C OuV VI L AS WY
The committee appointed by the
Business Mems association to wait upon
the Chicago Brass company to see if
some terms of settlement might be
agreed upon called at the Office of the
Brass company this morning and found
that Mr.. Tuttle was in Chicago. Messrs.
Frost and Blackman were seen and
stated that they were very sorry the
men deemed it necessary to strike, but
added that they had no authority to
talk about increasing the wages Of the
men, Mr.. TuTtle being in full charge of
the works the matter rested entirely
with him. Mr.. Frost stated that the
wages now being paid are but ten per
cent lower than were paid before any
general cut was made, excepting in the
case Of some individuals, and as the
price of copper is very low the profit to
the company is much less than when
the old wages were being paid. The
committee made an appointment to
meet Mr.. Tuttle Thursday morning,
and until he has been seen nothing can
be known as to the probability of an
increase in the wages of the men.
