ILLINOIS CENTRAL BEAT THE
FREIGHT HANDLERS AT
NEW ORLEANS.

The Illinois Central has practically
beaten the striking freight handlers of
New Orleans. The longshoremen and
screwmen who had walked out Satur-
day went back to work, and yesterday,
with the thousand strike breakers the
company had brought in, there was no
trouble in loading the vessels lying at
the export terminals. Many Of the
strike breakers were from this section
of the country.

that the Illinois Central is gradually

the gaps that now remain between the
principal city on the Cumberland and

The company also has under consider
alton the erection of another bridge

A CURE FOR GROUP
A PADUCAH MOTHER TELLS OF
A SIMPLE REMEDY FOR
THIS DISEASE

Editor of The Sun; Last winter
while visiting in Ithaca, N. Y. famous
as being the seat Of Cornell Universe
ty,a friend told me of medicine that
was made there which had cured her
children of the worst attacks of Group
and which, when used IN time, had
prevented the disease. Naturally Ibid
not believe it would have any more
effect than the many things bad used
but / resolved to try it,and as my
youngest child Is predisposed 10
Group, whenever she seemed croupy
/ pinned to her night robe close under
the chin, on going to bed, piece of
flannel cloth dampened with few
drops Of Hyomei. This has thus far
prevented all attacks and feel sure
t here will he no more Group in my
home.
Ny sister and her little child were
visiting me last week and one night
after the little girl had been out Of
doors playing in the wind, she awak-
ened the whole house with a hoarse,
barking cough and it seemed as though
the poor little thing would strangle
to death. Immediately got my bot
tie Of Hyomei, put about 30 drops
of it on a piece Of flannel and held
il close to her face so that she could
breathe it freely. This broke the
spasm almost immediately and after
adding a little more Hyomei to the
cloth,I pinned IL to her night robe I'M
der the chin and she was soon asleep.
forgot to say that l also rubbed
the front Of her chest and neck with
Hyomei balm. The effect of this
treatment was immediate.
feel 80 grateful for my wonderful
relief that l have the most earnest
desire to let mothers know Of this
preventive and cure for one OF the most
dreadful diseases Of childhood.

Advance Of One Cent Last Week Was
Reported by Trust.
Another Advance Probsble-Shortage
IN Supply and Production
the Cause.
KENTUCKY VERY IMPORTANT

The advance of three cents per gal
lon in oil made by the Standard Oil
company in the last three weeks has
called forth a great deal of comment.
One who is supposed to know says
that the advance is due solely to the
fact that crude oil stocks are getting
low.
The same gentleman states that tho
Standard Oil company is looking to
the Kentucky field to furnish oil in
sufficient quantities to make up for
the decreased production of the Penn
sylvania fields. He cites the purchase
of thousands of acres of land by the
Standard company in the oil belt Of
this state, the building Of pipe line
and the buying up of numerous plugg-
ed wells.
1.-THE law of supply and demand
must rule, even in the oil business. "
said a well posted man, land as the
supply falls behind the demand prices
must advance. The only possibility
for slump in prices lies in the devel-
opment of new fields. The Kentucky
fields may Offset the decrease in pro-
duction, but they do not now produce
enough to alter conditions. The Stan
dard is spending millions to develop
these and other fields, and unquestion-
ably the production of high-grade oil
will be materially increased in time.
But in the meantime it is likely that
prices will go great deal higher than
they are today"
Oil went up one cent last week and 1t
would not be surprising to see the
price advanced two cents more with
in the next few weeks.
Crude oils are advancing more
rapidly than refined.

IN COURT 20 YEARS.
Last of Them Settled Some Two
Weeks Ago.
But Settlers Make Strong Plea
to Attorney General.
win Appeal a Few to the High
est Court.
N COURT 25 YEARS.

lola, Kan. June 3.-W. C. Perry has
been employed by the government to
look after the Allen county land cases.
For man years there has been a con-
troversy in Allen county over the title
to certain lands which were granted in
the latter sos to the M, K. & T. and
the I. l. and G. railway companies.
About rs years ago a large body Of
these lands was squatted upon by set
tiers, who maintained that the grant
under which the government patented
the lands to the railroads was Invalid
and that they were therefore subject to
homestead entry
The cases in one form and another
have been before the courts from that
time until about two weeks ago, when
the last OF them was disposed OF Dy
Judge Hook of the federal court who
held, as had the state and the United
States supreme court that the railroad
title was valid. The settlers have been
unwilling to yield the point, however,
and have made so strong showing to
the attorney general at Chicago, that
in order to settle the matter for all time
he has employed W. c. Perry, OF Kan
sas City, Mo, to carefully go over the
testimony and the law IN all these cases
and bring an appeal before the United
States court in such of them as he
thinks there is a reasonable doubt Of
the justice of the former decisions.
Mr.. Perry was employed by the de-
partment of justice to do this work be-
cause when he was United States dis
triet attorney for Kansas he had charge
of the cases for the government and is
therefore familiar with both the facts
and the law. In ordering him to take
an appeal however, the attorney gem
eraI cautioned him strongly against un-
necessarily clouding the title to a large
body of land and it is the understand
ing at the department that Mr.. Perry
will take an appeal in perhaps less
than half dozen cases, there being
probably no more than that number in
which the settlers may justly claim to
have an equitable title. Some of the
questions involved in this case apply
to controversies of similar character in
a number of Kansas counties, but Allen
county most largely interested.
