A society has recently been formed, the
members of which pledge themselves TO

Raw meat, raw potatoes, raw wheat,
raw eggs. raw everything, is the entic.ng

proposes to establish restaurants in the
larger cities where this delightful menu
may be served daily.

life's blood OF Sergeant Robert Doug
lass Of the Eleventh separate company
Of Mount Vernon, who was shot dead
by an unknown assassin while he was

The widest excitement prevailed
throughout the camp us soon us the
news OF the assassination spread to
the different tents, md the soldiers are
frantic over the crime.
Giovanni Brnnchi, the Italian consul
general. deplores the sending of troops
to the scene OF the strike.

which they have been paying some of
their men are based on n starvation

Fifteen more dollars day paid out
by the contractors In wages would set
tie the whole difficulty. But these men
resist. They refuse TO make nny con-
cessiOn. l asked them to pay $780,

strike instead OF S1.25, as before but

New York. April 17.-John W. Gates

pany says that twelve mills in the con-
stituent companies have been shut
down. They are ut Ifttsburg, Cleve-
land, Joliet. WaukegAn, Illinois; De
Kalb. Illinois: Newcastle, Indiana, and
Anderson. Indiana.
Mr.. Gates said the cause of the clos
Ing down of the mills was over-produc-
ton. He was unable to state when the
mills would resume operations, as they
first would have to ascertain the ex
teht Of the over-prOduction. When
asked as to his views as to the trade
situation and outlook. Mr.. Gates stat
ed that the shut down of the mills was
the best evidence Of the current situa-
ton.
Mr.. Gates made another statement
later. in which he said the twelve mills
which had been closed had daily ca
pncity OF from 1900 to 1000 tons. He
said slack business was an additional
reason for the suspension Of opera
tions. The best Information ia that the
mills will be closed indefinitely. -Four
thousand men. boys and girls will be
affected by the shut down.
