CLOTHES FOR BIG MEN.
s:verything from Hats tn Shoes Has to Be Made Specially for the
 Extra Large Ones.

A giant wanting to refurnish his wardrobe in Chicago would probably have to have most of his outfit made to order, although by a judicious hunt ing around he might find many things ready made on sale--that is, if he were not too much of a giant, says the Chi cago Tribune.
 Most of the department and ready made goods stores do not carry mem shoes in a larger size than 12. The big gest hat is seven and three-quarters in derby and soft styles, while in silk and opera hats seven and one-half is the largest. In socks 12 is the largest size, and in shirts IT and IS. Fat men have made it necessary for the stores to carry a size of collar far in excess of the size ordinarily worn, many of the stores carry size No. 19 in collars. In gloves nine and half is the biggest carried in most stocks. People who gaze at the feet of Chicago policemen know well that No. 12 foot in the po- lice department would be considered capable of wearing Cinderella's glass slipper, and they wonder where the hundreds of blue-coated guardians of the peace get shod. One store makes speciality of shoeing the police de- partment, and it carries shoes that run in size up to 14. Almost all of the Chi caago coppers can get fitted in this store, but some few require even a big ger shoe than 14, and these must have their shoes ordered for them from the factory.
 The policemen who have hands to match their feet have favorite glove dealer who carries gloves in sizes rang ing up to 12. and the giant might get 8 glove that he could wear.

STRIKE NOTES

The strikers and their sympathizers speak in high terms of the majority of the members of the National Guard quartered here a portion of the week.
 Tickets for the strikers benefit to be given at Polls theater on Sunday even ing, February 15, are going rapidly and indications point to q packed house.
 Those best acquainted with the situ- ation are of the opinion that there is little Likelihood of an early settlement of the present difficulties, and believe that it has settled down to test of endurance.

IMPORT WORMS FOR BIRDS.
A Chicago Dealer Receivec Large Quantities from an Old G,er-
 man in New Jersey.

Chicago is obliged to import it's meal worms from New Jersey.
 The worm most valued from com merciaL standpoint is the small, inch and half long specimen known as the meal worm, usually found in flour mills and kindred places. It is sold at all bird stores as a dessert or piece de re- sistance for the family canary or par rot. The retail price for meal worms is 25 cents per hundred, and large .quan-s titles are sold, says the Chicago Trip une. A man who sells large number of meal worms a his bird store in State street each year says that the supply used to come from various mills around the country, the mill boys being tempt ed by liberal rewards to put in their noon hours prying around behind the loose boards of the mill exhumiDg the worms and sending them to Chicago.
 But now the dealer receives all his supply from ansold German down in New Jersey. who runs sort of meal worm ranch. This man breeds the worms and ships them when they are fully grown and of proper weight and color. He has building fixed up to resemble an old mill, full of loose boards and with four and meal plenti- fully sprinkled around. The unsus- pectlng worms are led to believe that they are boarding in a real mill until such time as they are fat enough to cause a canary birds heart to dilate with joy. Then they are ruth1ess1y seized, packed into tins, and sent to mark

PRESIDENT WILL NOT
He Declines to Arbitrate Ven-
 ezuelan Question.
IT WILL NOW co TO THE HAGUE.
Protocols Referring Differences fo That Tribunal Will He Signed at Once, and Blockade Will
 Then Re Raised.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 7.-President Roosevelt has declined the invitation of the allied powers to arbitrate the question as to whether taey shall re- ceive preferential treatment in the set clement of their claims against Vene- zuela over the other creditor nations
 He reached this decision shortly be- fore 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon and instructed Secretary Hay to dispatch q note to the British embassy at once advising the British ambassador to that effect. The matter, therefore, now will be referred to The Hague tribunal.
 The administration, it is stated in official quarters, was unwilling to ap- prove the effort of the British govern ment to eliminate Minister Bowen from the negotiations, and moreover the president could not have accepted the invitation of the allies even had he been. so disposed without the consent of the other negotiator, Minister Bow en, and this the allies did not obtain or request in their note of invitation to the president
 Today preIiminaries with reference 10 the signing of the protocol referring ! to The Hague for arbitration are being considered.
 Immediately on receipt of Secretary Hays note announcing the presidents $ declination the British ambassador ad- dressed q communication to Minister Bowen stating that he was suffering from an attack of grip and would be obliged if MT. Bowen would call on him. The Venezuelan envoy went at once to the embassy. where the British ambassador explained that he had been too i'll to call for several days and an nounced the arrival of his protocol, which he was prepared to submit to MT. Bowen for signature. Later the German minister, Baron Sternburg, called on MT. Bowen and announced the arrival of his protocol.
 It has developed that two protocols lare to be signed by MT. Bowen with the Italian ambassador Signor Mayor des Planches. two with the British am bassador and two with the German minister Baron Speck yon Sternburg, The first protocol in each case will provide for the reference of the allies contention for preferential treatment to The Hague and the raising of the blockade simultaneously with the sig nature Of this convention.
