Important Meeting Last Night
of Carnival Committees
Soliciting Committee Begins Work at
once-Other Prepar-
ations.
CARNIVAL CoLORS WANTED

The chairmen of all the carnival
committees held meeting last night
with the carnival executive committee
at Hotel Lagomarsino, and outlined
some Of the work to be done. All be-
gin at once to prepare for the big
show. The soliciting committee,
which is composed of the following,
will begin work today; Chairman T.
b. Harrison, Messrs. AL Foreman, W.
O. Gray, X. O. Benner, George Good
man, Dave Levy and Henry Bailey.
The committee will select one day
of the carnival week for 1.-THE big
day" but has not yet decided ON what
day IL will be. On this day the festiv-
titles will resemble those of Mardi
Gras, and people who desire will go
en- masque. There will also be a mon
ster parade.
The music committee has not de-
cided on band as yet. II satisfacto-
~ arrangements cannot be made with
local band Of sufficient numbers. it
will have to get a band elsewhere.
The Fersri company carries two bands
but this will not be sufficient.
Another matter that is to receive
attention is a selection Of the carnival
colors. Heretofore, because the car
nivals were given by the Elks, the
Elks coiors, purple and white, have
been used, but being given by an asso-
citation this year. other colors will be
adopted. and any suggestions as to at.
tractive combinations will be appreci.
ated by the committee.
The chairman OF tho "spielers' com
mittee has not vet been decided on.
but he will have the appointment OF
all "spielers" for the carnival. just as
Mr.. Ernest Lsckey. chief ticket taker,
will appoint all ticket takers.
Preparations will be made as rapid
ly as possible in oil the committees.
There is not Ms much work to do this
year as heretofore, as no enclosure is
TO BE- built.

DAILY MARKET LETTER.

Wall Street. New York, March &c
Stocks opened at about last nights
closing prices, but shortly after the
opening more selling pressure was
brought to bear on the market and
prices declined sharply, the most pro-
nounced being in Amslgamated Cop
per, New York Central and Pennsyl-
vanis. Later in the day, however,
sentiment was not so bearish, and the
market rallied sharply. Transactions
to noon were quite fair in volume,
sales being $40, 200 shares. London
also displayed a little more strength
for American railway securities, but
reported very weak market for cop
per metal. Banks have lost 10 SUBJ
treasury since Friday last ss3s, 900.
Money rates were not quite so firm,
call money ranging from ga TO 4per
cent. There was some renewed SELL
ing on the ok that the Pennsylvania
would shortly put out s66, 600, coo
new stock. This amount of stock
coming on a market which is already
staggering under load of undigested
securities could have bu- ono effect.
and that will not be favorable TO the
market. We still feel that great eau
ton should be exercises and believe
that for some time to come stool
should be sold on all hard spots.

The Board of Health Probably
Against New Move.
Does Not Think Police Officers Can
Successfully Make Sanitary
Inspections.
WILL TAKE UP THE MATTER

The board of health will probably
take up the matter of placing the san
itary inspections in the hands of the
police and use its influence to prevent
1t.
A member Of the board of health
stated today that the board would not
sanction the move, in his opinion, be-
cause he did not believe that the ar
rsngement would prove satisfactory or
effectual. The board apparently ia
vors letting the city keep hands off
the sanitation question entirely. It is
claimed that since the change in rules
which made it necessary for the sani-
tary inspectors to report to the health
officer instead of the mayor the results
have been much more satisfactory.
The board member mentioned above
stated further that If the sanitation Of
the CITY is left to the health officer
and the board OF health the city will
be better of, and the city would be
relieved of any responsibility in re-
gard to the public health.
IL is claimed that under the law the
board Of health has right to appoint
four inspectors, and that If the city
would allow the board to have four in
summer and two In winter the health
of the city would be all that could be
wished.
1t is believed that strong influence
will be brought to bear to prevent the
plan proposed in boards, to require
police officers to also be sanitary in
spectors, from being carried into
effect. The board Of health will hold
a meeting about the LIST of April and
then take up the matter.

Plans Said to be Completed for
Big Union.
Will Come Up in the Manufacturers
Annual Convention at
New Orleans.
TO FIGHT TRADES UNIoNIsM

Chicago, ILL.,, March 26-It is learn
ed on Rood authority that when the
National ASSOCIATION Of Manufactur-
ers meet in annual convention in New
Orleans next month plan will be
proposed for welding all the leading
manufacturers of the United States
into one formidable organization in
order that they may more effectively
act together in common defense
against the demands and encroach-
ment Of trades unionism.
The movement was given birth at
the convention Of the association held
in Indianapolis last year and since
that time the chief promoters have
been actively engaged in propagating
the idea among the manufacturers and
business men of the country until now
n is believed that the scheme has
made sufficient progress TO be launch
cd fairly and squarely on the sea of
public opinion.
The association is IN uch encouraged
in it, endeavors along this line by the
success that attended its efforts TO de-
feat in the last session Of congress the
two pet measures Of the labor lobby,
the eight-hour and anti-injunotion
bills.
For more than a year President
Parry, Of the association, has been in.
cessantly at work urging the manu-
featuring interests to get together to
combat the called menaciog attitude
OF the trades unions. At intervals he
has visited Chicago, New York ano
other industrial centers aud advocated
before meetings of commercial men
the scheme OF federation that he has
undertaken to push through. That
his endeavors have not ben fruitless is
evidenced by the fact that the employ
ers OF this city have lately combined
TO fight the labor organizations and
still more recently the iron and steel
manufacturers of the country have
combined for upited action against
the demands of the structural iron
workers unions.
Persons who see below the surface
Of things are convinced that the APP
preaching New Orleans gathering will
see perfected a defensive organization
of employers that in strength and
numbers will be fitted to wage a fight
to finish against organized labor.
That the latter is not blind to its i'm
pending danger is shown by the fact
that measures are being taken in all
haste to heal the differences between
various unions, to combine the small
or and weaker organizations into
stronger bodies and in short to mar
shall the labor forces into one solid
army for the coming battle.

Tomorrow anything the apper

This, indeed. is most momentous
hour. 1t is a time when reason,

A halter had just finished selling 4
hat to an Irishman.
THE Irish,' he said, "have heads of
a graceful shape-long and oval and
very large. The American has a head
shaped very much like the Irishman's,
only it is smaller and slightly rOunder
The German has a square head, fiat
on top and very wide between the ears.
A Germans hat always looks too big
for him. 1t looks so because it is so.
In order that it may encompass the
heads great breadth it must be bought
a little too loose in its other dimen-
sions. Some Germans who are particu-
lar have their hats made TO order on
this account.
Il sell hats all over the United States
and l find that heads run bigger in the
west than anywhere else. The Chicago
man has the biggest head in America.
The sOutherner has the smallest. We
s-Philadelphians, New York
ers and Bostonians-all have heads
about the same size. That size is. on

HUNDRED MILES AN HOUR.
That Is the Speed Scheduled For
Illinois Trolley Line.

One hundred miles an hour in q troll
ley car is what the management of the
Aurora, Elgin and Chicago Electric
Railroad company promises TO show
wondering suburbanites along its line
within few weeks, says a Chicago
dispatch. They will not be expected to
ride in the meteor car, at least not on
its first trip. The trial viii be made
with specially geared motor car now
under construction, with a view of
demonstrating the possibilities of the
trolley.
Since its opening this electric line has
in many instances developed high
speed in ordinary runs, sixty and sew
enty miles an hour for short runs be-
ing not uncommon. The roadbed is
rock ballasted, and the rails are of the
eighty pound type, making the line as
solid as a steam railroad of the highest
type. If a speed of 100 miles an hour
is attained at the test run it will estab
lish new record for a railroad in prac
teal operation.
