Mr.. Donnelly states that II the pack
ers can demonstrate thru this strike
that the independent packers, not con-
cerned in the strike. can feed the world,
then the people will believe there Is no
packers trust. 1t is a costly game, pu.
the kind the big packers play accord
ing to the strike leader.
"A thorough inquiry is being made
Just now by the government INTO lhe
business of the big packers. to ascer
tain whether or not they are comforting
the market to the detriment OF the
many and the profit OF themselves,
said President Donnelly. 10 ma IL
they are manipulating the market TO
keen the price of hogs and cattle down
and of fresh meat up is the object OF
the investigation. The men conducting
the investigation have been in chicago
for some weeks and have visited other
cities.
Mr.. Donnelly refused to give the
names OF the men on the commission,
but said that members OF the commls-
sion had visited hlm and obtained from
him figures as to the cost OF running a
steer or hog through q packing plant
and on to the market. They have gone
TO the packers and obtained their estl-
mate. When their Investigations are
finished they will report to the depart
ment of commerce and labor their find :
ings. Mr. Donnelly states that it does
N
than 81 to put a steer on the mraket,
at the most liberal estimate. He says
the actual cost of putting it through
the plant is 40 cents. while the packers
claim it costs s2.Il.
1t is Mr. Donnely's belief that the
big packers refused to agree to scale
with the unions III order to force this
very strike and through it create the
belief there is no packers trust
He was asked what were the pros
poets OF settlement.
II don't see that they are any better
than they were" said Mr.. Donnelly.
There is little change in the situation
now"
Upon what terms viii the men re-
turn to work ?"
That the butchers be taken in a few
days and the other men within ten
days." replied tho president.
Cause Of tho Strike.
He says that the real cause OF the
strike was the fact that the packers re-
fused this year to make an annual
agreement as had been their custom.

southwest bound passenger on the

a time it looked as if traffic on the
Rock Island road was to cease. Fin
ally, however. the engineer sent a man
back to the depot and a man was sent
to the crossing as aagman where the
officials Of the road promised that he
should remain until gates had been
installed or some permanent arrange
ment made.
The action comes as result OF the
road not complying with the various
resolutions and demands made by the
city council.
L
made by the city officials to have gates
put in at the dangerous crossing at
Fourth and Division street. The road
has paid little attention to the de-
mands, however. and a short time ago.
Mayor Phillips brought matters to a
climax by requesting the company to
have the gates In or have a fagman
at the crossing within ten days.
The ten days were UP few days ago
and this morning Mayor Phillips decid-
ed to bring matters to an issue inn
mediately Accordingly he gave Chief
Herzog instructions and the chief with
City Marshal Matt Lamb and Officers
Jensen and Palmer proceeded to the
crossing and when the passenger train
which leaves for the southwest at 1918
came along. red flag was waived and
the train stopped. Chief Herzog then
boarded the engine and informed the
engineer that the train could not pass
until the matter had been adjusted.
When the fiagman was secured the
train was allowed to pass. but not until
1t had been delayed some thirty min
utes by the trouble.

The Modern Way

To cure weak stomach is to take
Hostetters Stomach Bitter's at the
very first symptom. 1t does away with
starving and dieting yourself because
it puts the stomach in proper condition
to digest the food. In this way it cures
Indigestion, Dyspepsia, Constipation
BiIiousness, Heartburn, Insomnia,
Headache, Cramps or Diarrhoea. Ner-
vous and sickly women also find the
Bitters unequalled as regulator and

Oldest Known Coin.

Berlin Cablegram to the New York Sun,
 Pastor Losmann. chairman of the So- ciety of Scientific Research in Anato- lio, during a recent journey in North ern Syria, acquired coin of pure sil- yer in excellent preservation. Exam ination revealed a perfect Aramean in- scription of Panammu bar Rerub, King of Schamol, who reigned 800 years be- fore Christ.
 It is the oldest known coin in the world. Hitherto the Lydians have been regarded as the inventors of mon ey, but this find shows that the Semit- ic Arameans used coins two centuries before the Lydlans, as evidenced by the latters oldest known cotA.

political, social and racial themes. You are, of course, aware that l have no authority for assuming that your views will agree with mine. but feel sure you will believe me when say that I have here expressed my pro- found convictions upon a topic of high moment to my countrymen and of great interest to those of all lands who recognize the claim of all men of all races to justice and fair dealing at the hands of their fellowmen. What I have written Is likewise the result of my most careful personal observa- tion and my constant study for a per iod of but slightly less than forty years.
 In conclusion let me add that If am appalled, by the dangers and diff faculties which our problem presents, IL am by no means in despair. I be- lieve our common Anglo Saxon race is qualified and destined to work the problem out to a peaceful solution. No new devices or polices are need ed, though nostrums without number are proclaimed on many hands. De- portation. extrusion, segration, all forms of efforts to banish rather than meet and solve the problem, are mere dreams never to be realized, and ought not to occupy the waking hours of in- telligent minds. With the abatement and extinction through the action of the negroes themselves of the crime which first caused lynchings, only the old, tired, commonplace virtues are wanted on the part of the white race a deeply humane and Christian spirit; kindness of heart, manner and con- duct; readiness to yield and defend all the ordinary civil rights; helpful ness, to be shown in all practical and reasonable ways; infinite and unfail- ing patience of spirit and of act. These virtues exhibited towards the negro race will do more, far more, than schools or colleges, more, than chur- ches, or missions. to roll back the tide of bitterness and violence which has risen so high in the last two years, and will in due time bring peace and mutual respect between two races ex- actly suited, under normal conditions, to be useful to each other; exactly suited each to it's present habitat in our Southern States; between whom no natural hate or fear finds place. and whose present mutual antagonism is the wicked work of those who have sought to make a stalking-horse of backward, but kindly, pious and indus traily valuable race.
 Yours faithfully,
 D. II. Chamberlain.

In producing Harry B. Smiths musi- cal comedy, The Liberty Belles." which will be the attraction at the Montgom- cry Theatre on Friday night, Mir. Ber- ger. the manager. departed from the customary way of having the songs and music composed by one man. MT Berger considered that a greater var ietv of styles could be secured by calling in different musical geniuses Accordingly. the score of The Liber- ty Belfes' possesses wider variety than has ever before been noticed In d production sof this character. The songs for both principals and the mi nor members are of the merriest and most catching. In addition to some sixteen musical numbers there also will be seen a number of dancing specialities including the latest New York sensation, the Radium Ballet, which will be executed by the "Liber- ty Belles," Pony Ballet Girls. This feature has been added with consider able expense to the management but 1t has proven a powerful drawing card and the investment Is a good one.
