walters, calling out their orders in the
Jargon of the restaurant kitchen, there
was line of machinery against the wall.
There were indicators of various Sorts
which told when the custard pie slot was
empty and when there were no more
sandwiches ready for delivery. Every lit
tie while a bell rang back of the chefs
range and dime or a quarter came rat
ting down the slot The man who had
inserted it in the slot above received a
brass check, with which he drew his hot
dishes when the cook hoisted them in an
automatic elevator The bill-of-fare on
the day the Tribune reporter visited the
restaurant included conSomme royal, pu-
rec of pea, fish chowder, corn beef hash
lamb stew and Goldfish. The day hap
pened to be Friday.
There are thirteen sandwich machines in
all and two men are able to keep them
filled. One of these machines has estab-
lshed a record. selling 783 sandwiches in
one day. Each one held a dozen orders
at a time and they move up automatically
as they are drawn upon.
One thing the. automatic restaurant
shows. the possibilities Of the vending
machine. 1t is only question Of time
until all sorts of notions are disposed of
by automatic clerks, as chewing gum and
chocolate has been sold for some time.
1t is suggested that machines will eventu-
ally be used to deal out tickets in the ele-
waited stations and that considerable
saving in time would result The auto
matte idea is certainly one of poSSibili-
ties.-NeW York Tribune.

would be harder on the animal than

Further, no one could tell what
power of current to send through each
steer till 1T was tested. What would
kill one would only tickle another.
And, finally, the effect on the ami
NAL and its flesh and blood would pre-
vent this method if nothing else did,
One of the most important parts of a
steer is the blood, and if killed by
electricity this would coagulate and be
worthless The flesh, too, would be
calcined and prove useless as well. The
hair would be singed and damaged.
And the blood would not be drained
from the veins, as is now the case, and
thus the meat would be spoiled.
"And, last Of all, the death would
not be nearly so humane as is the
present one. 1t would, perhaps, occupy
minutes where the present one is In
Simultaneous. Therefore, what would
be gained, except danger to employees,
uncertainty, ruination of meat and by
products, and more pain?

most civilized way possible Of killing
cattle and hogs. Electricity can run

killing; it is useless in that operation"

HE INFORMS UPON
AN OLD COMRADE
Kansas City Man Delivers Joseph
HrdIica to Authorities for Desertion.

HrdlIca to Authorities for Desertion.
KANSAS CITY, Mo-, Jan. 11.-Jo-
seph w. Hrdlicka, formerly Of ST.
Louis, a deserter from the United
States army, was taken to the Leaven-
worth penitentiary today from here.
Seven years ago Hrdlicka was a
do plumber in st. Louis, and
was happy with his wife and little
girl. In the tornado of 1896 HrdIicka's
wife was killed. He began drifting
around the country. In 1899 he en-
listed at st. Augustine, Fla, in the
United States army. A comrade stole
his fatigue cap, Hrdlicka informed
against him and had him court-mar-
tailed and sentenced to prison. The
convicted man was popular, and his
comrades for revenge began systemat-
iCally to persecute Hrdlicka. His life
became so unbearable, he says, that
two years ago he stole out of camp
and became a deserter.
Hadlicka came to Kansas City and
went to work at the plumbing business
and each week sent a part of his
wages to his little girl, who lives with
her grandparents in ST. Louis.
William Rybarger, one Of the artll-
lerymen of Hrdlicka's company, was
recently hOnorably discharged. He
came to Kansas City to look for work.
At o'clock last night he was walking
down Main street, when he saw Hrdlic-
ka with kit of plumbers tools upon
his shoulder.
The old hatred came back to him.
He saw him go into Corcoran BOWS
plumbing shop, hurried to the office
of the United States marshal in the
government building and informed
upon Hrdlicka. An officer shortly aft
erwards arrested Hrdlicka.
His employers said he was an ex~
pert and most excellent workman, but
Hrdlicka had to go to prison. A dep
uty United States marshal took him
to the military prison at Leavenworth.
Rybarger went along to see that he
was safely locked up.
The deputy United States marshal,
whose heart was softened toward
Hrdlicka, asked of Rybarger:
'Why did you inform against him?"
The response came:
For revenge He sent a comrade
of mine-a good fellow-to prison.
Now let him take the same kind OF
medicine"
Hrdiicka will be court-martialed and
probably sentenced to a term at hard
labor in the military prison at Fort
Leavenworth.

HUMANE WAY Is TO
KNOCK IN THE HEAD
Why Cattle Killing by Electricity Is
Not Practicable,

moi FFdCCiCaDtSs
During the recent visit here Of a par
ty Of Hollanders, who inspected the
Kansas City packing houses, they no
ted with wonder that while nearly ev-
cry operation about the big plants was
performed mechanically, especially by
the aid of electricity, the killing itself
was still done by hand. Hogs, they re-
marked, were stuck in the throat with
a keen knife, while cattle were raped
on the head with a bludgeon or shot.
why do they cling to those prini
tive methodist" they asked, when cleo
tricity would do the work so much
more humanely?"
The question found an echo in the
mind of a Kansas City man, and he set
out to investigate and ascertain last
week. And he found out that, willis
the packers would doubtless be glad
to adopt electrocution as a means Of
killing the animals, it was not practic-
able.
'In the first place." explained F. M
Bernardin, an expert electrician, ''the
places where the cattle are killed are
very wet. Blood is everywhere. So Is
water. 1t would be exceedingly
dangerous to use electricity in such
places. A man might catch hold Of
an electrode and be killed before any
one could tell what happened. The
danger element is accentuated by the
dampness.
In the second place, 1t would be
necessary to attach to the animal two
electrodes, a positive and a negative.
The hair on leg and the forehead
would have to be shaved and the poles
attached very closely or the animal
would simply be struck by lightning,
and burned up. This would require
considerable time. and would compel

JOB FRAMEDU UP
FOR mr.. JOHNSON
National Believes 1t Has B.
Bancroft in a
Hole.

LOUISVILLE, KY, Jan. Is. - The
baseball cat is out of the bag. Barney
DreyIuss, owner of the Pittsburg club.
disclosed to a local friend why the Ma
tlonal league had apparently agreed
TO nearly all the demands of Ban John
son.
The National league magnates really
beI1eVe that they have the American
league In very bad muddle. If their
conclusions are correct, Mr.. Johnson
soon will realize that he has just com
pleted bout with buzz saw in the
shape of half a dozen men whose ex-
per1ence in baseball is practically UNI
limited. The facts in the case are
these:
Ban Johnson and the American
league magnates signed the peace
neither league is to change it's circuit
under any circumstances without the
majority consent of the other.
In the agreement the specified circuit
OF the American league includes New
York city, and the National league
magnateS who attended the Cincinnati
peace conference are positive that the
American league will be unable to
place ball club in the metropolis. If
Johnson is unable to put a club in
New York, it will leave the American
league with only seven clubs, which
cannot be increased to eight except by
the consent of the National league, and
the National league will see to it that
Johnson does not enter New York 1t
also will withhold it's consent for him
to enter any other city not named in
the peace agreement.
Brush, Ebbets, Hanlon, Rogers and
Soden, who have so strenuously OBJ
jected to the conditions Of the peace
compact, have not yet been appraised of
the real facts in the case.
THE American league will not have
club in New York" said Dreyfuss,
because it is impossible to get
grounds in that city. There is only
one spot on Manhattan Island outside
of the Polo grounds and Manhattan
field which is available for a ball park,
and that is the Lenox avenue site
which Johnson tried to secure through
the InterbOrough Rapid Transit COM
pany and failed. 1 am willing to lay a
big wager that Johnson's forces do not
play ball in New York.
Il am certainly pleased with the re-
suit of the peace conference. While
from the agreement it appears that
the American league has much the
better of affairs, there are a great
many things which will satisfy all the
National league people with the two
days work in Cincinnati"
Suppose Johnson is unable to get
in New York and desires to add an
other city in order to fill out his cir
cult, what position will the National
league take in the matter?" was ask
ed.

league magnates signed that agree

BOWLERS START
BIG TOURNAMENT
Forty Cracks Try for Place on Team
That Goes to indianapolis.

The first games Of the st. Paul ma

on the Pfister, Court, Doris and Acme
alleys last night.
The bowling competition is the tour
nament arranged for the purpose OF
sending a team of representative bowl
ers to the American Bowling congress
to be held in Indianapolis the last
week of February.
The opening of the tournament was
a most successful one. Forty-eight OF
the local cracks have entered for the
race to make the team, and but eight
failed to report for the games sched-
uled last night.
The average of each bowler will be
figured on the basis of twenty full
games, and the six men holding the
high averages at the close of the tour
nament will make up the team to go
to Indianapolis. The results last night

JEFFRIES STILL TALKS
ABOUT JACK MUNROE
Champion Declares Miner Would Last
Quick Before Kid Mccoy.

SALT LAKE CITY, Utah. Jan 10
Jim Jeffries says that Kid Mccoy will
knock out Munroe, the Butte pugilist, in
two rounds, if they ever come together.
''Munroe is a rank fake" declared JEFF
fries. He is not a fighter, has no science
and his sole claim to recognition is the
alleged fact that he put me down in Butte.
Some manager is going to get his hands
burned handling Munroe.
1.-The crowd was impatient that night
at Butte. The sport was tame and to
please the spectators decided to let
Munroe stay four rounds and forfeit the
$3.50 offered. Fitz advised against this
course, but persisted.
''Munroe can stand punishment 1 hit
him on two occasions with more force
than I put in the blow that laid Fitzsfn-
mons out. He is as clumsy as COW and
muscle bound. As skillful a man as Nc
Coy or aGrdner or Hart should stretch
