SALOONS MUST OBEY LAW.
Mayor Of Des Mones Sends Circular
Letter to Proprietors.

Des MONIES, August 1.-Proprietors
Ct saloons in Des Moines must clear
their windows. Mayor Mattern has
sent personal letters to all owners OF
saloons in the city calling attention to
that section of the Iowa mulct law
which provides that the windows OF
buildings in which saloons are con-
Quoted shall not be darkened by
screens or other distractions.
In this letter. the mayor made no
threats. His communication indicated
no hostility on his part to the liquor
interests of Des Moines, and reason
able saloon men themselves interpret
the letter as nothing more or less than
a courteous reference to the clause
of the liquor law which is most COM
monty violated. Yet, the significance
Of the letter to saloon proprletors. as
well as to others who read the letter.
is that Mayor Mattern intends to bring
about the strict enforcement OF the
phase Of the law in question.
The mayor begins the letter by say
ing that he desires to call attention
to" the clause which provides that the
windows shall not be INSTRUCTED. Pro
ceeding, he says:
Il am sending letter similar to
this to each saloon owner in Des
Moines. | take it for granted that you
know whether you are observing the
law in the particular mentioned"
Reference is made to the fact that
in many saloons painted windows act
as screens. 1t seems, consequently,
that the mayors action is because of
a desire to cause to be removed many
painted signs, shrubbery, palms, etc,
which may seem to be carelessly plac-
ed but which. in fact, are stationed
with care, and with single purpose.

APPEAL TO PRESIDENT.
Strikers Make Request that Executive
Interfere.

Chicago, August before meet
rng of the allied trades, it was disclos-
ed that resolution would be intro
duced demanding that President Roos-
eveit give word that the United
States district attorneys all over the
country begin criminal proceedings
against the big packing plants which
two years ago were permanently en-
Joined from combining to fix prices not
only upon finished meat products, but
upon live stock.
1t is TO be urged upon the president
that the best interests of the entire
country are rrejudiced- by the great
strike, which has affected all parts OF
the country and that widespread mis-
cry has been caused.
Addressed to President Roosevelt,
the original resolution for considera-
ton by the allied trades, but which It
was expected would be somewhat mod
flied after consideration is as follows:
Y, aware thai a strike OF over 10000
workmen engaged in the packing
plants of the United States is now
pending. and the packers have opened
a fight with the objects of disrupting
the ldDOT A'''''SN' N--N-
III this struggle continues it VIII
result in e. widespread misery and a
labor war that can only have disas-
trous effect upon the public as well as
upon those directly concerned;
Feeling that the crisis is o grave
one. we appeal to You for Intervention
to secure for us Just and equitable
settlement of our grievances, which
have been of long duration.
zone word from you will inevitably
bring about an adjustment of the pres
ent controversy. as the evidence on
which the government secured a per-
manent injunction against the meat
trust is also sufficient to indict before
federal grand jury every man en-
gagged in this conspiracy to control
the prices Of live stock and the meat
food products handled by the meat in
dustries."

EMBEZZLER IN THE TOLLS.
Edward SouIe, Iowa Falls Defaulter,
Captured.

Eldora, August although it has
been predicted that he would never re-
turn for trial, Edward O. Soule, under
Indictment for the embezzlement OF
$4,000 from the Home Savings bank
OF Iowa Falls, has been brought here
from Chicago and is in the Hardin
county Jail.
He was somewhat surprised when
Sheriff Mitterer approached him at a
brokers' office in Chicago, but came
with the officer without murmur. 1t
is reported that Smith Of Iowa Falls,
who is one of Mr.. Soules bondsmen
is lying nigh unto death. and desired
that Mr.. Soule be brought back and
thus relieve his bondsmen.
Soule is now endeavoring to obtain
new bonds in order that he may not
have to lie in jail. although the court
set August % as the date for his trial.
I The accused Rman's family has been
living with him in Chicago, and it is
said he made no attempt to conceal his
residence. Sentiment here is against
! Soule. and the feeling is that he ought
! 10 be punished and sent to prison.

RUSSIA PROTESTS TO, BRITAIN.
Formal Protest Against Contrabano
"M Sbinr Ia Filled.

London, July 30.-Russia has filed
a formal protest at the foreign office
against British shipments OF co~tr,
band to Japan. The Associated Press
learns that the Russian government
since the beginning of the war, has
carefully watched the manufacture OF
goods intended for the use of the Jap
anese government, and as soon as II
was established that such goods were
about to be shipped to hostile des
tination the facts were communicated
10 the British government with the re,
quest that measures be taken to put
stop to it. 1t is further asserted
that in many cases the government
has not taken action and 1t is under
stood that when the war ends Russia
proposes to present a bill for damages
to the British government, which will
offset the indemnities claimed for the
seizure of British steamers. lE q +

Anderson Horn and Jesse Horn.
of Everglade, have vrluable hound
which came very near getting them
into trouble Tuesdry evening. The
hound wandered away from home,
and Tuesday afternoon, they
started out to find it, tracing the
deg to near Morris. They arrived
here about six o'clock, and proceeded
to drive about town hunting for the
dog. Later they walked about town,
and fearing for the safety of their
team, Jesse got the buggy and road
about in the quest, and Anderson
continued on foot, the understanding
being that they would meet at the
court house cornor when they found
the dog or decided to give up.

turned to her seat in front. In few
minutes Mr.. and Mrs. jacobson
came along, and she explained what
she had seen and heard. On investi-
cation, Mr. jacobson found that two
lights OF glass had been removed
from a rear window, and suspected
that there might be burglar inside
of the house. Sheriff Delahunt was
aclos the street, and was hastily
summoned. As he and Mr.. Jacob
son were standing looking at the
window, they noticed man in the
alley. The sheriff followed him,
and halted him. He was not able at
the time to give satisfactory reason
for his presence in the alley, and the
sheriff of course took him for the
man who had ATTEMPTED to break
into the house. His name VS.

Horn, who soon happened along in
the buggy, was also arrested.
The first was held for the. night,
