New York, June 13.--In the recent
agitation here about the price of gas.
the demand for lower rates was sup.
ported by the argument that every
resident is as dependent upon a sup.
ply of gas as upon a supply of good
water.
II. has come TO pass that the day
laborer uses gas as his only fuel for
cooking, because of economy, and the
rich man uses gas on account of its
convenience. Gas for lighting, with
modern improvements in burners, is
cheaper, better and more satisfactory
than any other kind of light. Gas
sells at S1.00 per thousand cubic feet
in large cities and from that to as
high as $500 in. smaller towns.
The consumer of gas in the country
uses Acetylene pronounced a-set-a-
lenel, and each user makes his own
gas and is Independent of Gas and
Electric Companies. Acetylene is a
more perfect illuminant than the gas
sold by the big gas companies in the
cities, and the cost to the smallest
user is about the equivalent of city
gas at IS cents per thousand.
Acetylene is the modern artificial
light the latest addition to the many
inventions that have become daily
necessities.
The light from an acetylene flame
is soft, steady and brilliant, and in
quality is only rivaled by the suns
rays. If water and solid material
known as Calcium Carbide are
brought into contact, the immediate
result is. the making of this wonder
full gas. The generation of acetylene
is so simple that experience or even
apparatus is not necessary to make
1t. II it is desired to make 1t for prac-
teal lighting, and to keep 1t for inn
mediate use, then a small machine
called an "Acetylene Generator" is
employed. There are many RESPONSE
BILE concerns making acetylene gener-
ators, In practice, this gas is dis
tributed in small pipes throughout
buildings, grounds, or entire cities
and towns, in the same manner as
ordinary city gas Acetylene is the
only satisfactory means of lighting
isolated buildings located in. the coun-
try or suburbs at distance from city
gas or electric plants.

Tokio.-Toldo has calmly received

of assurance that Russia will accept

the knowledge that the final consum-
nation of peace involves the adjust
ment of a series of questions of para

careful diplomacy and extending over
weeks of negotiation, coupled perhaps
with the recollection of a previous ex-
perience in the thorny path of the

ton over the preliminary step and a
feeling of deep gratefulness over
President Roosevelt's action.
There is also genuine thanksgiving
at the thought that the carnage and
horror and waste of war will soon end
and genuine hope that the negotia-
tons will bring a satisfactory and en-
during peace.
The national rejoicing an< thsnks-
giving will probably be deferred until

Distorted Account Of Russian Riot
In London Newspaper.


Nihsk, Western Russia.-The report
published in a London newspaper that
100 persons were shot during the riot
ing here recently is incorrect. There
was a street riot here Thursday on
Cathedral square between soldiers and
Jews It was provoked according to
the official version by the theft of a
purse from soldier off duty. His
comrades heat a Jew, whereupon a
crowd of about coo of the latters CO
religionists gathered to rescue him.
The Jews used stones and revolvers
and the troops were summoned. They
fired into and dispersed the crowd
with the result that one Jew was
killed and twenty were wounded and a
soldier was shot. The chief of police
sustained a wound on the head by a
flying missile and one policeman was
severely wounded

Paris.-President Roosevelt's sue

THE TEAM OWNERS
REMAIN NEUTRAL
There viii Be No Extension Of the
Chicago Transfers Strike.

Chicago Transfers Strike.
Chicago-The Chicago Team own
ers' association, an organization en-
ploying 5000 union teamsters, has de-
cided to remain neutral in the present
labor struggle now in progress in Chi
cago. Ever since the commencement
of the teamsters' strike the Team own
ers' association has been anxious to
have the question of making deliveries
70 strike-bound houses submitted to
arbitration. The teamsters, by unani-
nous vote, refused to agree to the
proposition and for time it was be-
lieved that the team owners would
force a strike of these 5000 drivers
by ordering them to make deliveries
TO firms involved in the strike.
In an effort to learn the sentiment
of the members of the association re-
garding the matter, it was decided to
take referendum vote on the question.
This vote was completed Sunday and
resulted in 155 of the members voting
to remain neutral during the trouble
and in three members voting to com
pei the teamsters to obey orders. The
decision reached by the owners means
that there will be no strike of these
men and the threatened expansion of
the trouble in this direction has been
averted

Rebuff from Mayor.

The teamsters' strike 10 Chicago yes
terday was quiet, as storms OF wind and
rain drove the pickets from their posts.
There was little disturbance in the
business quarter. On the outskirts,
however, there were a few attacks made
on the drivers of delivery wagons. but,
with the exception Of one negro, who was
knocked senseless by stone. nobody
was injured.
A committee representing the Chicago
Federation of Labor received rebuff at
the hands of Mayor Dunno yesterday
afternoon. The committee waited on
the city's chief executive with request
that an order permitting policemen to
ride on the wagons OF firms against
which the tcamsters are on strike be
countermanded on the ground that the
police were being used in manner to
discriminate against the strikers.
The mayor told the committee that he
had issued the order enabling the police
TO ride on the wagons that he would be
personally responsible for the effect OF
that order, and in so many words said
that he did not consider that the
police were exceeding their rights or
bowers at all. He held that under
normal conditions the wagons would be
moved at pace that would preclude
the possibility of the police keeping
up with them on loot. He also de.
clared everything in the situation
warranted the police riding on the
wagons.

Limiting Size ofthe Family.

"The absolute limit of woman 8 ca
pacity for taking care of babies is eight,
and she ought never to have more than
six" said Mrs. Arthur NJ. Dodge, presi-
dent of the New York Federation OF Day
Nurseries, while addressing yesterday
the Eastern Public Education Assocla-
ton, which is holding its annual meet
ing in Richmond.
The words of Mrs. Dodge fixing the
limit we're received with laughter by her
hearers, the greater number of whom
were ladies, aud she herself Joined in the
merriment.
A doubt prevailed regarding her mean
ing. which was not cleared up, some put
ting her down as a not very ardent adhe-
rent of the antirace.suicide views of Presl'
dent Roosevelt, while others inclined to
the opinion that she simply spoke in her
official capacity asrresident of chain OF
nurseries, and desired to state that one
nurse could not care properly for more
than eight children.
Whatever the meaning OF Mrs, Dodge
she was sustained by the unanimous sen.
timent of those OF the fair sex who heard
her although some snclined to the opin-
ion that she had fixed the limit too high
and that from two to four babies would
be & sufficient number for one mother.
