legislation is largely due to Stevens

the members of the rules committee
that the rule for the consideration of
the Cuban bill could be passed.
If the bill were debated without the

introduction Of an amendment offer

STRIKE NEARS ITS END
Colorado Miners Probably Will Re
turn to Work Monday Eight
Hour Day Granted.

Louisville. Col, Nov. 14:-Repre-
sentatives of the miners Of the north ::
ern coal district and the operators
reached a satisfactory conclusion
early to-day after being in conference
for nine hours, and in consequence
the mines probably will resume oper-
alton Monday. The matter will have
to be referred to the various unions
of the district for a referendum vote
tonight and the vote will be counted
Monday. 1t is believed that the agree
ment will be ratified with practical
unanimity.
President Struby of the Northern
Coal and Coke company made the fol-
lowing propositions:
To settle the existing strike in the
northern Ignite field, the operators in that
field offer to resume work on an eight
hour basis with the understanding that II
the miners lose the present strike against
the principal operators fin the southern
Colorado field or if said operators shall
not accept an eight hour day, the miners
shall go back to the hours prevailing be-
fore the strike.
He also announced that the North
ern Coal and Coke company was wills
ing to pay the men an increase of
about 10 per cent.
After a secret consultation the
miners made counter proposal, the
principal difference being in the price
for mining the coal in veins of differ
ent thicknesses.
The final result was the acceptance
of the miners proposition by the OPP
orators practically as presented.
It's stated that the change will ne.
cessitate an increase in the price OF
Ignite coal.

New York, Nov. 14.-The Wall

large independent bank as saying
II do not believe in the theory adj
vanced by some of the Northern Sc
curities people, that q decision by the
supreme court against the company

ket. I think that whatever effect a
decision against the Northern Securl-
ties company might have has ALREADY
been discounted There might pc a
temporary furry, but it would not last
long nor do much damage.
Moreover. l am firmly of the opln-
Ion that, in the long run, Wall street
will be greatly benefited by decision
against the Northern Securities COM
pany. In fact nothing would be
more disastrous to it's interests than
the legal upholding of the monopoly
idea in railroads. The effect upon
the people would be very bad, and ma
tionaliza ton of the railroads might be
the least of the consequences of their
revolt.

favor of the Northern Securities COM
pany AS | figure it out, such de-
cision would elect democrat as pres

Chicago, Nov. 14.-While the police
force of Chicago guards the street
cars the city is left unprotected, alta
the mercy of thieves, highwaynen
and pickpockets and lawiessness
reigns supreme. Last night a carnival
of crime prevailed on the South Side.
Porch climbers, bold in the knowl-
edge of their safety, laughed at
women when discovered and pursued
their work in defiance of threats
Holding q baby in her arms and
looking from the front window of her
home at $3.50 o'clock last evening,
Mrs. Michael Butler saw her hus-
band shot down at the gate by a
hlghWayman who escaped.
Burglars driving in a closed car
riage with a footman made a tour of
the south side, They were caught in
the act but made their escape, as no
policeman could be found. The cab
was :, loaded d with, silverWare and china.
Shop lifters invaded the department
stores. Title Hanson was held up
by. a; highWayrnan and robbed of all
her savings. All the poor boxes Of
the Tenth Presbyterian church were
robbed of their cash. A negro, Frank
Thoronton, on a wager that he would
not be arrested, walked two blocks
along Illinois street with an open
razor in each hand, scattering the
crowd right and left. He was finally
captured.
| A burglar who entered the home of
George Hinchlliff was bold enough to
stop and drink a glass of milk while
Mrs. Hinchilif looked on.
These are but few instances.
There were 1856 cases Of thefts and
other outlawry reported in one day and
but ten arrests. Hyde Park citizens
ploring the conditions. petition
from the South Side was presented to
Mayor Harrison to-day, imploring
him to protect the citizens from the
army of outlaws.

OFF FOR SCHOOL
Send Youngster Away Well Fed.

Unless the school child has food
that nOurishes brain and nerves as
we'll as muscles, the child will not de-
velop as it should.
Brain wastes away daily just like
the rest of the body and must be
rebuilt, and the only way to do this
is by proper food selected for just
this purpose.
A school girl of Worcester, Mass.
wrote an interesting article about her
experiments with food to study on:
Two years ago / had indigestion SO
bad that food did not nourish me and
I lost a great deal of flesh and strength
and was always suffering from trouble
in my stomach. / could not study for
my head always seemed clogged UP.
Zone day at school I noticed that
one of the girls had a box of Grape
Nuts. I asked her about it, and from
what she told me, made up my mind
to try the food.
"As the result of eating Grape
Nuts three times a day in place of
improperly selected food, have at
last found the way to permanently
cure my Indigestion. Grape-Nuts food
is light, delicious and digest without
trouble, the heavy feeling-if1 my ston1-
ach is gone and / have been gaining
flesh RAPIDLY ever since I made the

fore. / used to feel so tagged out in
my brain and stupid and had head

II am absolutely certain that Grape
Nuts helps me get my lessons, because
fnow can sit for hours and study and
accomplish a great deal, while when
I was living on the old diet I would

TAX FERRET FIGHT
Arguments Made on the Application
for Injunction Against Spec
ial Attorney.
For the Petitioner, W. E. Hale
Makes Strong Point Against
the System.

w. p. Hale, attorney for A. e. Paul,
iT his suit against the county commits
sfoners, county auditor, county treas
urer and ]. j. Wooley, talked for
nearly two hours this morning before
the six district judges in support OF
plaintiffs application for a Temporal
ry injunction preventing the defend
ants from carrying out the contract
with j. j. Wooley, recently made Off
cial tax ferret.
Mr.. Hale contended that the con-
tract was void for want Of authority
in the board of county commissioners
to make it. He claimed it was void
for the following reasons:
First-Because the board of county
commissioners is not charged with the
duty Of seeing to it that all property is
assessed and placed on the rolls of taxa
ton.
Second-Because it is contrary to public
policy in that it will disarrange and set
at naught much of the machinery Of the
state for collecting personal property taxes
and paying bills against the county; that
% per cent Of the moneys collected is an
exorbitant compensation, and that it at
tempts to appoint j. j. Wooley assistant
county attorney for five years, which is
beyond the time for which any of the
present county commissioners are elected
and beyond the time for which the present
county attorney has been elected
Third-Bccause the number of assistant
county attorneys is fixed by law and that
number is now employed.
A. B. Jackson, as attorney for the
defendants, argued that under the
terms Of the contract no property ex,
cept that omitted entirely from the
tax rolls could be affected
