FOR GREAT CANAL
Prussian Cabinet to Propose construc
ton Of Gross Country Canal to Con-
meet the Rhine, the Weser and the


Berlin. Sept 10.-The Prussian cab
met has decided to again propose t.
the landstag the construction of a
great cross country canal to connect
the Rhine, Wester and Elbe. thus COM
pleting the emperor's proposed system
of internal waterways.
Congressman Burton, chairman of
the rivers and harbors committee of tho
house. who has returned here from his
inquiry into the river and harbor I'M
ern Europe, says this is the only cana
project seriously considered in Europe
that compares in expense to the pro-
posed Erie canal improvements. The
Rhine Elbe canal was estimated to cost
sec, 600, 900, tho it is now thought ii
Will cost considerably more.
Mr.. Burton, who is accompanied by
Major f. Mahan, United States engin-
eer corps, retired, and his secretary
Mr. Floyd. was received with the ut
most courtesy in the countries thru
which he passed. Russia provided gov
eminent steamers for his transporta
ton, and Professor Timonoff and other
engineers went with Mr.. Burton and
his party on the Volga and visited
several Black Sea harbors, the Danube
and the upper Elbe.
Speaking of his investigations, which
were begun early in June, he said: w
found Illustrations throwing light upoI
almost every proposition in the rivet
and harbor works of the United States,
Everywhere in Europe there is a dispo-
sition to make increased use of the in
land waterways, whether rivers or ca
nails. The value of this means of
transportation is coming to be realized
more and more. In France and Ger
many and portions Of Russia the
quantity Of freight carried by waite
is increasing more than that carried
by rail. There is strong movement
for the Improvement of the inland
waterways and there is a growing dis
position also, tho not as potent o.
universal, in favor of tolls on the wa
terways which are improved. 1t would
seem that Europe affords better OPP
portunities than America to study tn
proper relation between railroad and
waterway transportation, because fire.

AN IOWA THURMAN?
lSioux City Tribune.l

typical follower of the turf, slouchy
dark skinned and keen, is the owner OF
Prairie King, Ed Bales, of Des Moines,
who stuffed his horses nose with
sponges Wednesday afternoon and
then bet his money on an opponents
horse instructing his jockey to pull
Prairie King. Ed acknowledges he
is tricky and considers it part of his
trade. "All trades have tricks, you
know" says Ed.
Bales has won and lost fortune In
the race horse business, and although a
man past so years of age, is still fol-
lowing the races with a passion as
eager as in his more prosperous days.
In his younger days Bales made quite
a good deal of money. from horse
named Fillmore, which he bought at
the close of a Chicago derby, appar-
entity broken down, for $50. Ed took
the limping, old horse back to his farm
in Warren county, and there began a
systematic effort to bring the animal
back to his former glory. He succeeded,
After several months of rest and care,
Fillmore began to surprise even his
owner, with his wonderful speed
The first race in which the old Chi
cago turf horse was entered after ne
had been discarded as practically
worthless by his Chicago owner, was
in the Warren county fair, held at In
dianola in the fall Of 1890 All OF the
Bales family from the country were at

subject taking the ground that the
lecture was all wrong because it was
not of a religious character, but
strangely enough the editor does not
object to the delivery of the lecture in
itself providing that 1T had been deliv-
cred by somebody who would have Sc
lected for his subject some religious
text, and under that guise had perpe-
trated a long string of abuse of every
thing not strictly orthodox. 1t is pos
sible that one Sam Jones would have
been all right in the estimation of the
Record editor, although he had befoul-
ed the SABBATH with all manner of
profanity and vulgar abuse of the
world and the poor sinner. The facts
are that Bryan was dated to lecture at
an earlier date on a week day, but was
unable to fill his engagement on ac-
count of the necessity of attending the
funeral of friend in Connecticut, and
the Chautauqua management accepted
the Sunday date in lieu Of the one
originally made. Many people do not
believe as does w. ]. Bryan in politics,
but there has never been breath Of
scandal in his personal life and he has
never DeSH accuseu ol pelaS HilAy III
his speech or being immoral in his
views and why 1t should be any worse
for an intelligent audience to listen to
Bryan than it is to any other man. is
pretty hard to conceive by the ordi-
nary liberal minded man. If Chautau-
quas are justified at all in holding
Sunday sessions in which admission is
charged. and they all do this without
protest. as they are run for the money
that can be made. certainly they should
be given their moneys worth and w.
j. Bryan as lecturer does this as we'll
as any man before the public.

End Of Street Car Trouble in
Chicago Not in Sight.
Police Force Is to Be Increased b. Five
Hundred Men and Screens Protect
0rpmen From Flying Missiles.

Chicago, Nov. l8.--Encouraged by
the successful operation of regular
service on the Wentworth avenue line
today, the manageent of the Chicago
City railway announced tonight that
an effort would be made made tomorrow
to resume traffic on the Cottage Grove
avenue cable line. The intention is to
start trains carly in the morning, and
unless too much opposition is met with
the service will be gradually extended
later in the day.
Five hundred policemen will be
added tomorrow to the number already
detailed to guard the property of the
company. This additional force will
be assigned to the Cottage Grove aven-
ne line, and the cars will be run under
s-ie same protection as those on Went
worth avenue. Screens have been
provided for the grip cars to shield the
gripmen, and the trains will be run at
high rate Of speed in an effort to pre-
vent crowds from blocking the tracks.
Although considerable interference
marked the operation of the Went
worth avenue branch today, still five
minute service was maintained through
out the day, and an attempt will be
made tomorrow to install a closer
schedule. Riots were frequent all
along the line, but the police charged
on the crowds with such quickness and
force that but one serious blockade was
met with. When the last of the 25
cars that had been in the service reach
ed the barn at 430 o'clock tonight, it
was decided to suspend further traffic
until tomorrow morning.
The inquiry Of the state board of ar
bitration asking that the difficulty be
settled by arbitration, it was announced
tonight, would be replied to tomorrow
by s. K. Bliss, counsel for the company.
The communication, it is said, will
agree to arbitration of the wage oues-
ton only, and will entirely ignore the
demands of the men that the recog-
milton OF the union also be submitted
to the board. As the latter clause in
the demands of the men has been the
stumbling block all along to peacea-
BILE settlement of the trouble. it is said
there is little chance, for the present
at least, OF conciliatory adjustment Of
the controversy.
Reports to the effect that union men
were going over to the company and
DESERVING the organization are declared
by both President M. G.. Buckley and
Secretary L. d. Bland, of the union, to
be falsehoods.

RARE STAMPS STRAY AWAY.
Postoffice Department Seeks to Find
Leaking Place.

Washington, Nov. 1S-The postoffice
department is pressing the investioa-
ton OF published allegations that rare
postage stamps have illegally found
their way from the department to
stamp spectators.
Postoffice Inspector Fosnes, ex-direc-
tor general of posts of Cuba and fourtb
assistant postmaster general Bristow's
chief assistant in the postal investipa-
ton, and Inspector Williams are in
charge OF the stamp investigation
They have not only gone through the
records OF the department, but have ex-
amined number of persons in the de-
partment and in the bureau of eneray-
ing and printing, which prints tbe
stamps, and have questioned philatel-
lists, including prominent dealer in
this city, with view to ascertaining
the Identity OF persons who have sold
stamps to the dealers in those articles
1t has been the practice of the office
Tor number of years to distribute
among department officials and other
prominent persons specimen" stamns
distinctly marked, so as to prevent
Their use as postage, as an official cour.
,tesy, and it is known that a large NM
Der OF these stamps have found their
way INTO the hands of the dealers.

INCREASE IN COST OF LIVING.
Bureau Of Labor Takes Interestins
Comparisons.

Washington, Nov. 16.-The bureau
OF labor has issued a bulletin on the
cost OF living of workmen's families
showing that of 1867 families in So
states, from which data was obtained
the average income per family was
s827.l9; average expenditure for all
purposes, $768.54; average expendi.
ture per family for food, $500. 80; aver
age size of families, 1851 persons. The
last figure is above the average of pri-
vate families in the whole country, Is
shown by the census of 1900. The food
expense is more than 4216 per cent Of
the expenditure for all purposes.
An extended investigation covering
the years 1S90-1892 shows that the cost
OF food reached its highest in 1892, the
average then being 1919 per cent above
the average for the decade 1s90-1sss
and an increase of 1911 per cent CON-
pared with 1895, the year of lowest
prices. 1t is announced as a eonsers-
tive conclusion that the increase in the
cost OF living, as a whole. in 1909,
when compared with the year of lowest
prices, was not over 1871 per cent, the
figure given as the increased cost Of
food, as shown by this investigation.
This assumes, of course, always the
purchase of the same articles and the
same quantities in years of low prices.
low wages and more or less irregular
employment, as in years of higher
prices, higher wages and steady employ
ment.

CAIN suaAR GAINS.


Washington, Nov. ls.---The depart
mcnt OF agriculture, In its official crop
report for November, announces that
the indications are that the world has
entered on new era In the production
Of cane sugar. The department quotes
estimates placing the total sugar pro-
duction OF the world in the year 1904
at 10, 1925 800 tons OF 2240 pounds each
including 1892 800 tons OF cane sugar
and 0,0s3, 900 tons Of beet sugar and
says rs TO cane sugar:
During the past five years the
worlds output of this product has in
creased from 5000 900 to more than
1000 900 tons, quantitatively the
greatest increase ever made in any five
year period In the history OF this in
dustry. Moreover, for the FIRST time In
a half century the ratio OF increase In
the worlds production Of cane sugar
has exceeded that OF sugar made from
beets, the percentage of increase in the
former product for the five years being
about that Of the latter.
1.-THE four years from 10000 10
10000, inclusive, were each in it,
turn record-breaking years for the pro-
duction OF sugar. The previous high
record crop $3.50, 900 tons) was that
OF is04-95, the crop made Just before
the outbreak OF the revolution In the
most important producer--Cuba.
The high-record crop In the history
OF the worlds beet sugar production
was that of l902-03. Since that date
there has been decline in production
in Europe, amounting In all to about
| ,0o0, 900 tons, but the present years
estimated output still shows consider
able increase over that of five years
ago.
The report says that about 80 per
'ent Of the cane sugar of the world is
now annually produced In tropical and
'emi-tropical islands.
