THE MILLERS ANSWER.
Reply to Workingmen's Demand for
Eight Hour Day.


Minneapolis, Mimi, Sept 27-Formal
answer was made today by the flour
mil managers of Minneapolis to the
demand submitted by their employees
union for an eight hour day. The re-
EIcnse says:
1T is not our intention to oppose you
or your union, but when 1t comes to
the question of wages and hours, we
must simply repeat our answer made to
you on May II, that Minneapolis mills
cannot pay for eight hours work, higher
wages than mills in all other sections of
the country pay for IL hours work. Your
work is mainly experimenting machines
and is different than the work done in
many other employments and you cam
rot, as is claimed for many other en-
Payments. do as much work in eight
hours as in twelve hours.
IF. however. you have fully made up
your minds that you want an eight
hour cay, we are willing to make the
change and pay the following wages:
Millers now receiving So to receive 35
cents an hour; machine men now receiv-
ing $3.50 to receive 20 cents an hour;
machine men now receiving $2.25 to re-
ceive 26 cents an hour; oilers now re-
ceiving 81 to receive 233k sents an hour:
sweepers now receiving $1.75 to receive
% cents an hour.
This gives you the eight hour sched-
ule you have desired, and in addition,
very large increase in the hourly wage.
If this proposition is turned down we
shall shut down our mills or employ
other men who are more reasonable in
their demands. ("

SAYS son is INNOCENT.
Father of William Hooper Young Dis.
cusses Young Mans Trouble.

Paris, Sept. PA representative of
the Associated Press has interviewed
John w. Young, father of William
Hooper Young. who is charged with the
Pulitzer, on the developments in the
case against his son. Mr.. Young said:
Il am now convinced, from what has
been published and from my own cable
advices that my son is innocent and I
shall do the utmost in my power to
help him, while if l thought him guilty
of such a horrible crime. I would not
move my hand to save him from JUS
tice.
He is wayward. but he never had a
criminal tendency. The only explana-
ton, to NV mind which can connect
him with his crime is that he fell under
the influence of some designing person
who peroetrated the murder and
through whom my son acquired a guilty
knowledge of the crime or possibly be-
came an accessory after the fact.
The boy is not insane. but his men
tai strength has been undermined by
vicious habits into which lie fell while
young.
THE dispatches say that suit of
my sons clothes was found in the trunk
with the murdered woman's clothing;
this itself is in his favor for the perpe-
traitor of a crime would not convict
himself in such an obvious way. This
was done by the real murderer. who is
using my son as screen.
II wish to say that my son is not
member of the Mormon church. nor
has he been connected with it for many
years. We have been estranged for Is
years. I helped him frequently through
my other son, but have not seen him
because of his waywardness and his
vicious habits, to which his unfortunate
failings are due.
1T was without my knowledge and
consent that my son was living in my
apartments during my absence"

CHRIsTENs A NEW CAR.
Prof Worrall Supervises Naming of
Latest Addition to Trolley System.

Latest Addition to Trolley System.
In the darkness of the Silly night, car
No. log. the last one of the new made
over cars to be put into service by the
Topeka City Railway company. was
christened last evening at the end of
its run on the Quinton Heights line
The christening was a most extra
ordinary event in several respects. The
car was named Pearl" in honor of Miss
Pearl Hull of No. 927 Quincy street and
the ceremony was planned and carried
out by Professor Harvey Worrall.
Only six persons witnessed the cere-
mony. They were Prof. Worra1l, Miss
Hull, who broke the bottle over the
bowsprit of the car, (the coupling rod
to which the trailer was attached), the
reporters for two Topeka dailies and
the motorman and conductor of the car
1t was an occasion that deserved q
larger attendance, and the event will
go down in the archives of the railway
company as important history. 1t may
prove to be the turning point at which
the equipment and service of the car
company may be improved.
On the outward trip Professor Wor-
rail- decorated the interior of the car
with small American flags. At the end
of the trip the vast concourse of pas
sengers went out and formed in semi
circle about the end of the car.
The night was dark and the ruddy
glow of the light from the headlight OF
the car, as it was held high by the
motorman. cast uncanny shadows about
the group. Miss Hull then stepped for
ward with determined air, bottle Of
rosewater clutched tightly in her hand.
AS she raised the bottle to dash it to
pieces on the iron work, Miss Hull ex-
claimed, II christen thee PEARL" and
the bottle was broken in a thousand
pieces as she crashed it down, splashing
rosewater over the car and the assem-
bled group.
The ceremony was over; the motor
man lowered the headlight, and the
witnesses to the ceremony entered the
car for the return trip.
Professor Worrall distributed Crack
erjack and chocolate candy on the
down-tow trip and the event was cele-
brated in feasting
