CUT DOWN
OF WAGES
Members Of tho Various Tex.
tiIa Unions viii Probably
Meet at Fall Rivlr "Wednesday

Fall River, Mass. Nov. l2--The officials
Of the Textile unions have already pre-
pared to bring the question Of the ac-
ceptance or resistance Of the 10 per cent
reduction before the members, and TO this
end the Textile council. which is com
posed OF three delegates each from the
Spinners. carders. Loomfxers and
sashsrtenders' unions. Will meet Satur-
day evening at O'Clock.
The Weavers union is not represented
In this council, but will undoubtedly act
in concert with the other unions In what
ever course Vs. mapped out The Textile
council will DO nothing more Saturday
night than ask for conference with the
manufacturers IL this conference IL
granted II must be held early In the week,
In order that "A report may be made TO
the unions. which will hold special meet
ings for the purpose OF considering the
question, probably on Wednesday night.
IL is probable that the Textile council
will submit whatever IL has TO submit
without recommendations and it VIII be
up To the members themselves To say
what they will do
IL the conference Is not granted by the
manufacturers, or II held, no concessions
are granted. the question which the MEM
bers OF the unions will have TO decide
Wednesday---if the meetings are held on
that night-will simply be ''Will the re-
duction be accepted or Will we fight?'
InelT decision on lndt nlBnt VIII De
final as there will be no further opporl
tunity to consider the matter befofe Lne
reduction goes into effect on the follow
ing Monday. The general meetlngs-the
spinners and the carders-were held last
night and at hose the first expression OF
opinion was gained as 10 the way the
reduction notice is taken by the opera
tives. No action was taken because no
proposition to act on was submitted at
these meetings, but the sentiment IN each
was alike and that was against the ac-
ceptanco Of this reduction. The opinion
expressed by members OF both unions
was that reduction Of wages is not the
remedy TO be applied to the present sit
uation In the cotton manufacturing In
dustry; that reductions I'm wages always
bring about n reduction I'm the price OF
cloth and no one is benefited but the
buyer. SsA5s-t. @

The brawny athlete Of the modern
football gridiron is full of pluck,
nerve and muscle. He keeps his eye
on the ball during every moment Of
play, and that eye Is clear and never
failing. He has no fear; he appar-
emily has no nerves. He eats like a
horse and sleeps like a baby. His
muscles are like steel and his steam
never plays out. There Is no such
word as "faiP' in his lexicon. Ninety
nine out Of every hundred football
heroes are a success in life.
Why? They have stamina, health,
strength, nerve. Their stomachs are
in perfect condition. They are fitted
in early youth for the strenuous bat
ties Of life. If they get run down
they knew; what they need-a good
tonic. Perhaps they took it when in
training. If they had good Judgment
they used Walther's Peptonized Port,
which is the best tonic ever placed
before the public. It is palatable and
pure. It invigorates and strengthens

MILLIONS IN GIFTS
Cash Presents From Northwest to
Northern Europe Will Be
100000 This Fall.
Postofice, Express Companies and
Banks All Aid in the
Transmission.

More than 100000 will be sent
from Minnesota and the Dakotas this
fall 20 European relatives and friends
OF new Americans that are prospecting
here The greater part of the remit
tances will go thru Minneapolis.
AT the local postoffice the superin-
tendent of the money order depart
ment said yesterday that November
was the favorite month for trans
uniting cash to northern Europe.
Senders desire to give the recipients
time In which to buy presents before
Christmas.
Last November $50 postal money
orders payable in Europe were issued
here; their value was $4,000. This
month the number Of orders would
probably rise to 700, worth $4,000.
The American Express company.
wrich makes a specially Of foreign
money orders, has sold more such or
ders this year than it had sold up to
the same time last year.
The SWedish-American bank Of Min
neapolis has maintained for several
years arrangements with northwestern
and foreign banks that enable 1t to
transmit the bulk of the money pres
ents sent from the northwest to
Sweden. Norway. Denmark and Fin
land just before the holiday season.
Our business in this line has only
Just begun" said. an officer of the
bank yesterday, "but we have already
deposited about $150,000 to our credit
abroad We shall need q great deal
more before the close of the year.
The remittances are heaviest around
Dec. 1, but they continue abundant
until after New Years. Better late
than never. you know. The al punts
vary remarkably. It's not unusual for
a young servant girl to purchase a
money order for five kronor; that Is,
$3.50, and inclose it in registered
letter.
1--WE provide regular drafts to be
cashed at various foreign banks, but
the customer usually takes a special
money order. He sends the order in a
letter to Cousin Ole Swanson or to
Sister Hulda at some little Swedish
village. Twice week we transmit
lists Of these orders to our foreign
rrespondents-one big bank In each
country. A memorandum of Ole's or
der goes, for example, to Stockholm
bank. This bank forwards the money
thru the postoffice to the designated
village. The postmaster will have
something for half dozen Ole Swan
sons maybe, but we always mention
our Ole's trade or farm, and when our
Ole gets his letter from Fergus Falls
or Minneapolis he will have to wait a
day or two only before he can go down

MEAN Man DID IITWO GAMES In ONE
Harvard Pennsylvania Game to Be
Seen at Journals Football
Matinee Thursday.
Plays Will Be Shown by Moving
Pictures Between Halves of
Madison Game.

Rapid and extended Geographic
correspondence and a deal of hustling
upon the part of certain persons in
New York city have insured the pre-
sentat1on at the International audi
forum on Thanksgiving afternoon of
blograph pictures which will show all
the exciting portions of Harvard
Pennsylvania football game played
Nov. Z. at. Philadelphia.
Hundreds of, feet Of film will be
spun off, reproducing on the screen,
moving pictures of the contestfng
teams in the full excitement of the
gridiron battle. The pictures will
show men life size as they actually
appeared in the great game.
This feature of the entertainment,
offered by Il h j u n a and The
Minnesota Daily, in connection with
the bulletins from the Minnesota
Wisconsin game, will probably be in
troduced during the middle of the aft
ernoon, between the halves Of the big
game played at Madison. It will be
the first thing of the sort ever pre-
sented in Minneapolis.
Its appearance will, however, be in
cidental to the special bulletin serv-
ice on the Minnesota-W Wisconsin game
arranged for by 7 he Journ a and
furnished thru special wires from
Randall field, at Madison. BY a
unique stereopticon arrangement, the
Madison game will be played on a
screen twenty-five feet long, showing
all the lines of the gridiron and the
exact position of the teams and the
course Of the ball turnout the game.
In connection with this a running ex-
PLANTATION in detail of the game
will be given by an expert of the game
whose vocal powers will be increased
by the use of a megaphone.
Altogether, the arrangements made
by T h e ur n al for full and &C
curate service on the football game
Thanksgiving afternoon will be more
ambitious and even more satisfactory
than those perfected at the time of
the Michigan Minnesota game last
Thanksgiving.
The Journal Newsboys Band will be
in attendance and furnish music.
The success scored at that time.
| combined with the comfort and
! warmth of the remodeled building,
will combine to make T h ] r
n a IS coming football matinee a
most popular affair. The heavy ad-
vance sale Of seats which opened at
The Journal office, the Students
Book Store and the University Book
Store this morning, gives assurance.
| An admission of rs cents is being
charged with no extra charge for re.
served seats. The afternoons surplus
will be added to the fund now being
created for the erection of the student
soldiers monument. Many box par
ties have already been arranged and

meeting for the maroon and colo
rooters who do not go to Madison.

Scared Phone Girls Who Were

The thirty operators In the ex-

girls knew perfectly where the fire

CAMPAIGN AGAINST VICE
Begun at Big Meeting at Lyceum
Theater Yesterday After
noon.

"The Traffic in Girls and "The De-
bauching of Boys were the published
topics that brought to a, mass meet
ing at the Lyceum theater yesterday
afternoon q large crowd. So great
was the crush, in fact, that more than
licemen were absent, and the ushers
made no attempt to clear the aisles.
A fire in the building, or other cause
for panic, would have resulted In much
loss Of life. An overflow meeting was
held in the Hennep1n Avenue M. e.
church.
The first speaker, Rev. +. M Cleary
of st. Charles Catholic church, tell
ing of Pitfalls for the Young said
that the greatness of q city lay not
in its material splendor, but in the
character of its citizens; that Rome
withered despite its pomp; that many
a modern millionaire. tries vainly to
pated, worthless children. Every child
should be protected by his parents or
by the public against his own weak
ness and ignorance. Boys, continued
the speaker, are exposed in cities to
three special temptations-the sa-
loon, the cheap theater. and the gam
bling-room. More manliness is what
society needs. This secured, there
would be fewer strikes and labor
troubles.
Rev. Dr.. j. S. Montgomery Of wes-
ley M. E. church said, on the subject
of Jewels Stolen From the Home"
that, gilded by vice, Satan appears in
modern cities as an angel of light in
stead Of as a serpent. DR.. Montgom-
cry described the lures baited for girls
by the saloon, the dancing hall, the
disorde house. Among the cures for
these evils were reformatory or res
cue work, and the segregation Of vice.
But DR.. Montgomery did not believe
in segregating vice and allowing it to
remain as a scrofula in the blood Of
the city. Vice, he said. should be
suppressed.
Rev. c. H. Crawford, state superin-
tendent Of the Antisaloon league,
which was active in arranging yester-
days meeting, asked for a contribu-
ton Of $4,000 with which to hire de-
tectives and otherwise conduct a cam
paign against the traffic in girls.
d. G.. Bell and G. A. Smith each
gave 500, and when no one would
| offer $50. subscription cards were
passed about.

This removes the Y. P. S. G. E. from the

tempts to make this change in Hennepin
Avenue church were unavailing. Rev. Dr.
