Chicago Schools Closed AS a Tribute

Chicago, Jan. 4.-To-day, the
fourth devoted to the funerals of the
Iroquoi5 fire horrors, witnessed a
repetition of the sad scenes of the
previous days. Many funerals, be-
lated because of inability to secure
hearses and carriages, took place to-
day. Although The occasional sight
of the slow moving Curte ges, III
with more tadn One hearse at the
head, was q reminder OF the pail OF

would take action Wednesday even

Solely from witnessing the horror
in the IroquoIs Theatre, Miss Rita
Wild, 20 years old, a teacher in the
public schools, is dead. Her death
brings the total of theatre fire fatal
tiles up to $50.
Pastors of many churches in their
sermons have turned their attention
TO the Iroquois Theatre horror. They
discussed the effect of the disaster on
the community, the measures which
had been taken for Furnishing the
guilty and the precautions necessary
to prevent a repetition of the cata-
strOphe. Attention was called to an
alleged official neglect and a spirit
of laWlessLeoo which Permit statutes
TO be ignored until the innocent are
made to suffer.

Edward Atkinson, professional

This plan Of MIR. Akin on'- read,
we'll, but in practical farming il IS n"
more feasible than a flight to the
moon. The soil of a farm IN New
England can be kept fertile because
it is neither washed in winter nor
baked III summer. 1t is locked UP

The soil in the South is not locked
up at all. This difference is not ta-
ken into account by Mr.. Atkinson.
Lands can be brought up to high
fertility and maintained in that con-
dition in the South, but it would not
pay to do anything of the sort, SIM
ply because the loss Of fertility in the
winter would be damaging to profits.
Fertilizing material for a particular
crop must, in short, in q good Part 81
the South be placed next to that
crop, for that crop and for no other
This may not appeal to Mr.. Akin
son and the other Boston farmers,
but it is the only way In which nine
tenths of lands in the South can be
proftably cultivated.
This difference between northern

Ianney of Knoxville, on the other
rand, picks up the real trouble in the
way of producing big cotton crops
it must be hand-picked. A machine
for picking would enable us to grow
crops as large as the world could o,

RUSSIAN OPINION.
japanese Objective Was Kuropatkin's
army All the Time

st. Petersburg, Aug. 4.-The army
organ makes no effort to fOreshadOw
events OF the immediate future in the
far east and gives no clue to General
Kuropatkin's intentions. but it de-
cIares that events OF the last ten days
demonstrate conclusively that the
Japanese objective since the beginning
of the war had been 10 strike the main
army of the Russians. and not as
popularity supposed, 10 take Port
Arthur.
The paper says the Japanese general
advance began July %, the taking OF
Ia Tche KiaO being signal for the
final struggle in the valley Of the Lao
river. On July 81 after six days prepar-
alton. the armies Of Generals Oku and
Nodzu moved against Haicheng. The
same day General Kuroki began his
advance upon Lao Yang, rushing the
position Of the Russian eastern army
at Yangse pass and that Of General
Herschelmann At Yushu pass, eqaivaf-
ent to the japanese s'YshulIntzi." This
psper estimates the strength Of
Kuroki's army at 10000 men of which
number 81. 900 are on the high road TO
Lao Yang, 10000 on the Simatsza-
Lao Yang road, 10000 on the roads to
Mukden and $4,000 in reserve. The
paper does not give the figures Of Cen
erals 0ku's and NoGzu's armies. which

japanese Await Tidings Of the Fall
of Port Arthur

Toxic, Aug. 4, 10 a. m.-The japanese
are hourly awaiting tidings of a vic
tory at Port Arthur with more inter
est and eagerness than heretofore dis
played during the war. From a pOIiti-
cal, strategicaI and a sentimental
standpoint the possession of the Rus
sian fortress and naval base is con-
sidered of paramount importance by
the Japanese. It is known that the
Japanese moose about the besieged city
is gradually Tightening. The japanese
guns are pouring fire into the diminish
ing circle and it is felt here that the
critical hour is fast approaching.
But the public here is ignorant OF
the hour when the final assault will be
made. and also of the details of the
work already done around Port
Arthur. 1t is believed that the fire
from the japanese batteries will COM
pei the Russian feet to leave the har-
Dor and accept battle from Admiral
Togo 1t is becoming pToverbial that
the Japanese infantry viii go any
where and will refuse to retire no mat
ter how great their losses may be. Tt
Is believed that Port Arthur could
have been taken before this time with
a heavy sacrifice of life. but it is evil
dent that the military leaders are
working TO effect the reduction and
capture of the fortress with the mini
mum loss of life There viii be no
charges Of great masses Of infantry
until the artillery has finished the
task of silenciug the Russian guns.
story is current to the effect that
the emperor has expressed the wish
that the capture shall be effected with
the smallest possible sacrifice Of life,
hence the care and precision taken by
the Japanese in approaching the Rus
sian defenses and the extensive use Of
the larger engines of war with which

PACKERS SEEM
To BE SATISFIED
VIII Not Again Confer With the
Striking Butchers.
PLENTY OF MEN AT WORK
ALL CONTRACTS AND CURRENT
ORDERS FILLED.

Chicago, Aug. TN a statement Civ
en- out tonight by the packers the re-
port that negotiations are in progress
To bring about another conference be-
tween the packers and the labor leaders
is declared to be unfOunded. The pack
ers assert that there is not the slight
est possibility of further conferences
with the strikers.
According to this statement the prog
ress making at the plants is satisfac-
tory to all the packers; more men are
employed daily; all contracts and cur
rent orders are filed, and there is a
normal supply Of beef, mutton and pro-
visions at all plants in the United
States, while sales are made at lower
prices than before the strike began. In
a table accompanying the statement IL
is shown that the total number of men
at work tonight at all points is more
than $4,000, distributed as follows:
Armour & Co. 9,I15: Swift. & Co. s.

al Packing company, 4.105; Libby, Mac
NELL & Libby, S2f; Sohwarzschild &
Suizberger, 1925; Cudahy & Co, 1,431-
With the number of men at work the
packers say they shipped S31 carloads
of fresh meats from all points yester-
day.
Beyond trying to enforce the order
fOrbidding the delivery of ice to retail
ers who have been hauling meat from
the stock yards themselves since the
teamsteTs' strike, the strikers did little
today. Up to date the ice supply Of 100
retail markets has been cut off.

STRIKERS POINT OF VIEW.
Allege Unsanitary Conditions at the
Packing Houses.

Chicago, Aug. 4-Officials of the

criticised today the utterance of a po-
lice inspector who is alleged to have
said that after this rioters would be
taken to the morgue instead Of to the
police station.

lessness than are the strikers. Such
bravddO IS enough to drive some of our
men, especially the hot-heads, to carry
