THICK WITH EGGS A POCKET REGISTER !
A Decided Oddly to Be Manufac-
tured in Minneapolis
FOR SHOPPERS AND DRUMMERs
A Company Is incorporated and
Manufacturing Will BE on
Il Large Scale.

A cash register to be carried in the
pocket is the latest novelty to be added
to the list Of Minneapolis manufactures.
1t is a device by which a lady shopper
may ring up the nickels as she spends
them. and thus keep exact tab on. her
financial status. Also the commercial
traveller. by simple wagging of the fin
ger when he pays a hotel bill, may avoid
the brain -racking ordeal of filling out his
expense account.
The pocket cash register was invented by
Ell Zimmerman, salesman for the National
Cash Register company, designer of the
famous slot machines used in Minneapolis and
inventor of the rail point manufactured in
West Superior.
~The register will record in amounts not less
than cents each up to a total of $100 before
resetting. In dimensions 1t is two inches and
a half long, and one and quarter wide and
quarter of an inch In thickness. 1t is made Of
aluminium and weighs very little. On the face
is the register, the first two indicators being
for dollars and the third for cents. On the
reverse side Is the key for registering.
~ Although the first few thousand machines
have been contracted for in the east, the
factory is to be established in Minneapolis
as soon as special machinery is made. The
Pocket Cash Register Manufacturing COM
pany, with a capital of $25,0o0 and a liability
limit Of $1,000, has heen incorporated for
the purpose of making and placing on the
market these registers. Headquarters villa be
in the Minnesota Loan and Trust company
building. The incorporators are Eli thinner
man, Bertrand N. Kager, Charles D. Sprague
and Frank l.. DitZler. $"-' '': g -
The officers are: President, E: Zimmerman;
vice president, c. D. Sprague: secretary and
treasurer, B. N Kager. The stock is fully
paid up and will not be issued for sale. -.

who have been held up to the community in
the light of prosecutors of officers, deem
1t advisable that you call the attention of the

lection and security: for maintenance of order
and for the enforcement Of the city's laws
and ordinances. -. ... f.,
l realize the encouragement that must come
to officers in the faithful performance of their
duties, when they are liable to have to protect
their very liberty from the malicious stories
cencocted against their honesty and fidelity
by criminals and acknowledged crooks: yet
each officer has a duty to perform, and it is
for him to do it Notwithstanding what. danger
threatens. :, g. ..@'s - - =
1 desire that the department be instructed
to use every effort and energy to clean the
city of all classes Of thieves and crooks, who,
am creditably informed have been brought
to the city through recent efforts to besmirch
and belittle the efficiency of the police depart
ment. Each officer has duty 10 perform in
this line and will expect him to perform it
at all hazards. -..s sz...
Those dealing in liquors must comply with
the rules and regulations Of the department
and follow them under pain Of prosecution.
/ desire further that you instruct your officers
to see that all violators of law be held to
strict accountability, and TO this end you may
call upon me for the heartiest cooperation
and assistance. -A.A. Ames, Mayor.

JULY 18th MEETING
No Important Developments in the
Coal Strike
BEFORE THAT DISTANT DATE
Attempts to Cut Down the Soft Coal
Production in Certain
Locat tions.

Wilkesbarre, Pa, June 19.-Now that
the call for special national convention
has been made for July II, it is not ex-
pected there will be any very important
developments in the ceaI strike situation
until that time. 1t is not unlikely, how
ever, that some of the bituminous dis
tricts will take action similar to that of
the Central Pennsylvania district which
last night decided to cut down the soft
coal production from that territory one
third. More soft coal is coming into the
ant hracite market from that section than
the labor leaders expected and they will
make a special effort to reduce the out
put.
They are handicapped in this effort to
some extent by the fact that not more
than two-thirds of the AZ, 900 workers in
the district are organized little dis
satisfaction was expressed by some of
the strikers because the date of the con-
vention was set month hence. They
feel that something ought to be done
without waiting thirty days.
While the leaders around strike head
quarters will not talk it is believed the
fixing of the date for July II was wise
move. A partial curtailment of coal pro-
duction or even total suspension would
have serious effect on the business in
terests of the country. and 1t is hoped
that, during the next month. some plan
may be devised by which such a state Of
affairs can be avoided. A total suspen-
sion of coal mining Is practically tmpos-
sible because the United Mine Workers
organization does not control all tho
miners in the country.
President Russell and Secretary -Treas-
urer Ryan Of the Illinois miners organi.
zation will arrive here to-day.
Conditions in the anthracite region re.
main unchanged. The entire coal belt ia
extremely quiet. Rain is falling to-day,
which Is not favorable to the companies
1t Will, however, cause no serious incon-
venience, because 1t Is not heavy enough
to swamp the pumps

NINE ST. .RY. MEN LET OUT !.
Men Say It's Because They Talked
+ OrEanizati tiOn.

Nine conductors and motormen In the en-
ploy of the St. Paul Street Railway company
have been discharged. The men say 1t Is on
account Of their connection with plan to
organize the street car employees OF that city.
A meeting to this end was held Saturday
night, and about thirty employees of the COM
pany were present and the matter was dis
cussed informally. The company learned OF
the meeting Immediately, and it is said that
nine of the thirty present have already been
given notice of their dismissal. Some OF
them had been in the employ of the company
for several years..
The men say they have no grievance on the
score of wages, but they do object strenu-
ously to the company's time schedule for con
ductors and motormen. They say that on
some. runs men remain on duty for sixteen
or eighteen~hours day and get not more
than ten or eleven hours of actual pay work
In that time.

JAlLs HERE And THERE
BY LIEUT.. CARL ERLER
Conditions in the Orient-He Is on
His Way From China to
Germany.

First Lieutenant Carl Erler, of the German
expedition corps in China, is in the city for a
few days visit with his relatives, among
VIII I'M are Mrs. julius Heinrich, Mrs. Henry
Hauschild and Robert Wieise. He has just
completed fourteen months service with the
German troops in the orient and is making
his way home and seeing the world en- route.
In the corps he was intenddantur- -sekretaer,
with the rank of .'oberl:eutenant.
This morning Lieutenant Erler visited the
Hennepin county Jail and the striking con-
trast between the local prison and what he
had recently seen in his journeys in the
Chinese empire irnpelled him to give a short
account of the condition of Chinese prisons
and prisoners.
The prisoners are herded together ten or
twelve In hole of a room, ,unprovided with
light or any means for ventilation. They are
chained together,\ poorly fed just enough to
keep body and soul together and their lot is
a miserable one in every way.
The lieutenant was rather more willing to
speak of the sights and scenes in China than
to speculate en- the foreign policy OF the
powers with relation to that country and the
future of the Chinese empire. All that he
would say on the latter point was that the
future would depend largely on the govern
ment itself ...r..- -..--.--

WORK OF ANARCHISTS

A Day of Riot md Bloodshed at
Paterson, N. j., Yesterday.
Paterson, N. j., June 1a-This city yes
terday was in the hands of a mob, and as
a result of the riots a number of persons
were shot and two at least will die.
The police did their work we'll, but they
were so few in number that they could
make little headway against the mob.
Mills were wrecked with stones and
bullets by the striking silk dyers' helpers
or roughs acting for them. There were
threats to resort to the torch. -.,
Among the leaders of the trouble was
man named Mcqueen and another named
Galleano, the former an Englishman and
the latter an Italian. Others, agents Of
ararchistic circles, have also been qui-
city tanning the flames.
After mobbing several mills the anar
chists were met at the Hull mill by a sin
gle policeman at the main entrance. He
was ordered to stand aside. and on refus
ing he was attacked. He drew his revol-
yer and begun to fire. Lora Salvino, an
italian "a years old, who lives and works
in Hackensack received the first bullet,
which penetrated both lungs. The mob
drew back and the officer regained his
post in the doorway. Several shots were
fred at him, but none took effect He
replied. firing directly into the crowd un
til his weapon was emptied, when five
more uniformed men and one in plain
clothes came on rum through Fulton
street. The mob kept on firing and the
officers charged, firing, when the strikers
broke and RAM Spectators say that fully
100 shots were fired. Salvino was left be-
hind and was taken to the hospital. One
hundred and fifty hats were picked up in
the street afterward which were lost in
the wild scramble to get away. There is
no doubt that several Of the rioters were
hurt. ,
It was about this time that Mayor
Hinchcliffe called on the firemen for aid
and men were detailed from each company
and armed, and during the afternoon they
rendered efficient service.
The shooting seemed to scatter the RI
oters, but it was not long before a dense
mob had formed again, this time about
the Gaede mill, on North Straight street,
where there was crowd of two thousand
Half of them were rioters and the rest
onlookers. The mill was bombarded and
before the mob stopped there was not a
whole window in the building.
Harry Harris, reporter on the Morn
ing Call. was at this point. He was
armed with revolver and had a camera
with which he attempted to take pictures,
standing on stoop a short distance down
the street. His act of training the cam
era was seen. He was knocked down
and beaten. He drew his revolver and
tried to use 1t, but 1t jammed and was
kicked from his hand. A man grabbed it
and fired at Harris, the bullet entering
his chest. He has a slight chance of re-
covery. - - ~. y.

WHO'S CUTTING RATES
Trans s-Michigan Not Getting Their
Share of Traffic.

Hoarse whispers are making the ROUNDS
of northwestern traffic circles that some
one is cutting the rates. In spite of in
functions and the vigilance Of the inter-
state commerce committee it is charged
that west-bound shipments OF mer-
chandise are coming into the northwest
at rates much lower than tariff. Investi-
cations have been the order for the past
week. Railroad lines which do business
through Lake Michigan ports are getting
little Of the traffic from the east. Lake
Superior ports and Lake Superior lines
are favored. Some of the northwestern
lines have discontinued their practice OF
filing reports with the secretary OF the
western trunk line committe and this is
regarded another cause for suspicion
The investigation is being followed with
interest by traffic men and shippers.
