CONGRESS WILL Be
ASKED TO INTERFERE
In Anthracite Coal Strike--In-
vestisation Cannot be Made
Until December.

Washington, Sept. 24.-Congress will
be asked in December to institute an
investigation of the anthracite coal
strike and means are now~being taken
to get labor organizations, citizens as
sociations and various other labor and
industrial bodies to unite in making
request which congress cannot disre-
gard. This program was implied at
mass meeting of the Central Labor
union here last night and was specific
ally recommended by a Knights of La
Dor committee, which recently took
the matter in hand. The congressional
Investigation, it is maintained by those
who are now laying the wires for 1t,
would reveal a practical defiance Of the
laws of Pennsylvania, which forbid
railroads to mine coal. and would also
show that the control of the field was
an absolute monopoly. in spite of a
seeming play of individual forces.
1t is argued that the prospect of a
congressional investigation may con-
sole, the miners into giving up the fight
on easier terms than though they had
nothing to look forward to. The more
radical labor people here are urging, in
speeches and resolutions, 'the con-
demnation of the coal fields, by right
of eminent domain" and the sale or
this commodity by the government.
Hard coal could be retailed by the gov
ernment at the cost of government
production and delivery in normal
times at about 50 ton, assuming Its
usual ratio of added cost over private
enterprise.

Newark, O., Sept. 25. - Erasmus
White, father of Archie White, presi-
dent of the American Securities COM
pany, and late president of the salt
trust. was found naked wandering in
a corufield near Black Hand today.
He was unable to talk and an at
tempt to put on his clothes meeting
with determined resistance blanket
was thrown about him till he was
brought to Newark. 1t is believed
that his condition was caused by the
sudden stopping of alcoholic stimuli

lionaire, hut who was cash boy in a
Newark store few years ago, and an
other son, Rollin, of Cleveland, were

AUDITOR SKIPPED
Suddenly Diseovered That He
Had Business In Cincinnati
Rough Roads for the
Auto m obile.

Ottawa, o., Sept. 26.-The red auto
mobile had another rough voyage yes
terday and was four hours on the road
from Lima to Ottawa, less than twenty
miles. .s-
In spite of persistent penetrating
rain which had continued all day, the
tent was nearly filed by the faithful
Democrats of Putnam county last
evening. The day was, with but one
exception, the worst yet experienced.
Under these conditions the gathering
Of fully $500 persons within the tent
was the most complimentary audience
which has greeted the mayor of Cleve-
land on the present campaign. The
crowd in the tent was just about equal
to the entire population Of the village
rain, the gathering would undoubtedly
been record breaker, as the occasion
has been thoroughly advertised
throughout Putnam county. AS it was,
hundreds Of farmers came to Ottawa
over almost impossible roads to hear
the speakers. Throughout the even
ing, the crowd was extremely enthu-
siastic and responsive to the efforts
of the orators, thereby differing from
most of the rural audiences that have
been encountered by the campaigners.
Louis N. Welde. auditor of Putnam
county, climbed up into the tower of
the old court house few days ago and
scanned the southern horizon with a
powerful field glass. After a careful
scrutiny Of all the roads leading to
Ottawa he finally discerned the John
son caravan away down in Auglaize
county vending its way slowly but
surely towards the north. Then Welde
hastily descended from the tower,
packed his green carpetbag and took
the first train for Cincinnati. He said
that he was going to attend the fall
festival" at the ex-metropolis. And so
there was no auditor at the tent meet
ing last night. Welde is democrat
and is serving his second term as ALL
ditor. In general Welde is very un-
repentant in the matter Of passes, and
says that he intends to ask for them
whenever he chooses and to ask for no
ones consent. Welde also has not
hesitated to "boo-boo" at the name Of
Tom Johnson. Bearing these things
in mind. it is not difficult to account
for Welde's overmastering interest in
the Cincinnati fall festival at this
particular season of the year.

Cincinnati, O., Sept. 25. - Four lads
in their teens we're arrested yesterday
for breaking open bread box in froyt
of grocery and stealing four rolls.
They declared in police court that they
were very hungry and several ate two
loaves of bread. The lads had been
out all night.
IL don't think it's so bad for you to
have stolen the bread. A hungry per-
son can hardly be blamed for helping
himself to food, but you must not stay
out all night" said Judge Lueders aui
dismissed them. He ordered the boys
parents to pay for the bread.

LARGE GUAM Titles
OF Fruit are Being Put up by
Canton Housewlves--Grain
Rates Remain at Old
Figures.

Peaches are being shipped into Can
ton by the car load and selling readily
at from $1.25 to $500 bushel. Every
indication points toward lower prices
within the next few days, as the Cleve-
land rates are away off from former
quotations. AAs are quoted In the
lake city at slips, A at soc and $100,
b at 65 and 75c. c at SO and 60 cents.
The next shipments to Canton Should
be at these figures, which would mean
lower retail prices.
Pears are selling at from 81 a bushel
up. There is great scarcity Of plums
noted, very few being in the market.
One thing that helps out the ex-
pense Of canning fruit is the low price
of Mason jars. They sell at so cents a
dozen. Housewives of Canton are put
ting up great deal of fruit, in spite
of the high prices.
Grain rates remain unchanged, and
the same is true of standard groceries.
The indications are that potatoes will
not go any lower, and many are buying
them from farmers at 40 cents to store
