Seattle. Sept. 3.-The meeting Of the
street car mems union and the advisory
board consisting OF one representative
from each OF the 65 other unions did
not convent until 1880 this morning and
was still in secret session at s o'clock.
II Is understood that the majority OF
street car men are urging immediate
strike and appealing for support Of al
unions. but the preponderance Of senti-
ment among other union men prior to-
the meeting was plainly in favor Of de-
lay IL not indefinite postonement. There
seems little likelihood Of a general
strike at once. President Furth OF the
Seattle Electric Company arrived home
last night and the question of whether
the difference between the company
and its employees shall be submitted
to arbitration win probably he decided
today.
There is no change in the teamster's

Chicago, Sept. S.-The theory that
germs of an appetite for liquor are inn
parted to Chicago babies through the
medium Of milk from cows that eat the
refuse from Peoria distilleries has sug-
gested itself to Assistant State Food
Inspector r. M. Patterson. Mr. Pat
terson has just returned from Peoria,
where he found $50 distillery fed cows,
whose milk had been regularly shipped
to Chicago. He enjoined the dairymen
to sell no more milk from these cattle.

the corn mash had peculiar effect
on them and it is against the law to

months, transactions being on larger
scale and showing more confidence
among buyers. The influence OF GOOD

character. The east is at present the
least favored in this respect,
Prices of finished products are well

DEMAND FOR MILKMAIDs.
American Dnirymen Are BEGINNING
fo Learn That Women Are
Best Mixers.

A big dairy farmer was talking about
a Polish farm hand who had been in this
country only three months. and had
proved himself 10 be far above the aver
age laborer at nearly every kind OF farm
work on the farm. Il never saw better
man in the field" he said. than Stanis-
laus. hear he has done d mans work
on farm since he was u years old. but
he has never MIXED a COW" The New
York Sun gives the farmers views in
regard to the Importance Of milking:
In his country milking is work for
the women to do. If Polish peasant
man is seen milking ne is asked if he has
forgotten TO put on his petticoat Stan
islaus says be is perfectly willing &c
learn. but don't know that he will make
a good mixer. willing as he is.
Many American farmers seem &c
think that almost anybody can milk. bu,
our dairymen are beginning TO learn bet
ter. A mixer must be clean and he must
be quiet and gentle. An expert mixer
must have one other very important
qualification, he must be quick The
quicker the milking, the richer the milk
il the work is done well and completely
Il am inclined to think that it might
be better for our American dairy inter
ests if milking were a part Of women s
work, as it is in many European coun-
tries The dairymen of England are do
ing everything they can to perpetuatC
the custom Of employing women instead
of men as mixers. and to maintain the
efficiency of the milkmaids.
I'VE never hear of a dairy show in
England nowadays without its popular
milking contest, in which the milkmaids
contest with one another These con.
tests are the talk OF the British dairy
districts. and are proving to be very use
full. shall not be surprised If. in the
course Of the next ten years. the milk
maids OF America become very mucl
more numerous. Perhaps lot OF prize
winning maids of England should b.
