Witnessed in the History of Chi

This Week viii See the Strike Ended

Chicago, Nay s -The week will
strike or one of the worst industrial
upheavals in the history Of the c. ty.
The present trouble now of two
weeks duration, has reached a point
where the business men appear to have
gained a decided advantage.
This advantage means that team
sters must either yield or decide to ex-
tend the strike by calling out thou
sands Of other workmen engaged in
affiliated unions
Commencing today the business men
will increase their efforts to bring the
strikers to terms.
Arrangements have been made by
every business house involved in the
trouble to at least double their force
Of non-union men during the day.
Last night it was said that all prep.
arations had been made to start out
1000 wagons manned by non-union
men.
Each of these wagons will be guard
ed by deputy sheriffs or policemen,
and each one of these men has received
explicit instructions to prevent dis.
turbances.
They are to use every peaceable
means in their power to quiet the
rioters, but if tlis means proves un.
successful, to use revolvers.
Yesterday the seven express com
panies made deliveries in all parts o.
the city
Each of the wagons carried two
armed guards and in a single instance
was asserted last night, had any OF the
wagons met with opposition.
During the day, several of the firm
involved in the strike succeed in repler
ishing their coal supply which in man.
cases had dwindled down to nearl,
nothing.
The Chicago Federation Of Labo
met yesterday and passed resolution
charging the Employers association
with conspiracy and asking that tn
States attorney start an investigation
of their business methods
The Employers association through
their chief counsel, Levy Mayer an
nounced last night that they would d.
everything in their power to assis
the committee appointed Saturday b
Mayor Dunno to investigate the caus
of the strike.

SEEKING A STATE CAMP SITE
The Decision Is to Be Left to Conr
mittee

New Orleans Picayune April IL: So
many cities and towns are anxious tc
have the next enCHmpment of the Louis
ara State National Guard held in their
vicinity that Governor Blanchard has
decided to appoint a committee of Of
icers from his personal staff and from
the line to examine all Of the proposed
localities and to render a report to him
on their investigation through the Ad-
utant General and chief of staff, Major
General D. T.. Stafford The Governor
has not yet decided how many staff Of
icers and how many line officers he will
appoint on this committee, but he has ex-
pressed his intention of having the COM
mittee mixed.
Adjutant General Stafford arrived in
the city yesterday from Alexandria, his
home town, and he will leave either to-
day or tomorrow for Baton Rouge He
says that among the places that have so
far asked for the encampment are Alex
andria, Covington (Which had it last
year,, Amite, Baton Rouge, Eake Ar
thur, Lake Charles. Shreveport and
Monroe.
General Stafford has visited Lafayette.
Alexandria, Lake Charles, Lake Arthur,
Baton Rouge and Amite. He says that
he found, from personal observation,
that all of these provide very good
grounds. He has not been to Coving
ton since the encampn1ent of last year,
but he believes that Covington could fur
nisl1 better grounds this year. If the
encampment is to be located in the vlcin
ity of Covington this year, it could be
located in better position than it was
last year. Just a few miles from the old
site would make a great deal of differ
ence and would make much better site
Governor Blanchard and General Stat
lord went over the grounds in the vicin-
tty of Alexandria last week when the
Governor was in the city to attend the
educational convention. The ground
proposed there is that formerly occupied
by the State University, and it would
make very good site for camp. Alex
andria has agreed to clean out the un-
derbrush if the encampment will be held
there, and it has also agreed, as have all
he other places, to furnish water. The
encalnpment will probably be held in
August, so there is ample time for dis
cussion.

Two gentlemen who had come into restaurant one day were scarcely seated at the table when the waiter rushed up and asked:
 "What shall l bring you, gentle men?"
 "Oh, dear" said one of the gentle men, impatiently, give us little re- spite."
 "All right" said the waiter and dis appeared. They had been looking over the bill of fare about five minutes, and were waiting rather anxiously for the waiter to return and take their order, when he came up suddenly, as if in breathless haste.

Given Severe Eye Tests.

Tests for defective eyesight on all members of railroad train crews are much more severe and frequent than they were few years ago." remarked 9 prominent railway official few days ago to representative of the Column bus Press-Post. "The reason for these tests are obvious, as the safety of every moving train depends mainly upon the clearness of vision of the men having it in charge. In these tests color blindness causes the most trouble and is a constant menace to all trainmen, as the inability to name correctly the different colors at a glance is followed by instant dismissal from the service.
 "A peculiar case wac brought to light recently when conductor on my road was being put through the test He had been running passenger train several years and never met with an accident, and was deemed one of the best men on the road. When the diff ferent colors were placed before him singly he called them correctly at a glance, but when two or more colors were presented he was wholly unable to tell one from another We were sorry for him, but, of course, were forced to let him go.
 Physicians seem to be unable to discover to just what cause this afflic- ton Is due. They claim that some per sons are born with 1t, while it comes upon others without warning at any time of life, and unless put to the test the victim will never know that he is so affected"

Over on the eastern shore of Mary land there was a man who was suffer- ing from a severe case of shakes" as they call fever and ague in that coun- try. One morning the local physician called on the patient and asked him how he felt. "Nn-not a bit b-b-bet- ter," was the shaking mans reply. "Your case is very peculiar one and hard to tfke hold of," remarked the doctor sympathetically "Yes, th-that's so," remarked the patient, trying to smile.

Der the vision like mirage falls The old log cabin, with its dingy walls, And crippled chimney with crutch-like

 wheel The dear old melodies that used to steal So drowsily upon the summer air, The house dog hid his bone, forgot his

 chance, Some cooling dream of winter time TO-
