INDIAN DAY AT FAIR
Receipt Of the Billboard Paper-Ths
 WOmen's Department.

The latest amusement feature pro- vided for the territorial fair next De cember is a program of sports to be given on Wednesday of fair week, which will be known as Indian day J. B. Alexander, of the Sacaton Indian agency, has been made the director of these festivities and he promises something good. At this time he can speak only in a general way, for he was only appointed to this office yes terday. but he knows of some novelties he can depend on and has others in view to be secured later if everything goes well.
 To begin with, the Indians have caught the white mans fever for fine running horses, and it is violating no confidence to say that they have some bloodless nags on the reservation that have been trained to throw their heels in a most lively manner, and there is as much rivalry between their own CTS as there is between the pale-faced sports. Their idea of a horse, though, is not only speed, but wind, and they want to run at least a mile when they run at all. A year ago they had a big
Arizona republican., 1905-10-14

two-mile race up at Lehi, the result of which was never satisfactory to those concerned, and the horse owners have been trying to get together ever since. They will have a chance to even things up at the fair. Then there will be mile saddle race for ordinary Tn jun" ponies; good, swift travellers, but not the Indian race horses.
 Another feature will be the Indian foot races, of which there will be sev- eraI. The most interesting one now proposed will be a mile sprint between representatives of the Maricopa, Pima, and Apache tribes. It is probable also that a football game will be arranged between elevens from the reservation, some with the long hair and some with the whiteman's hair cut; some who learned the game in school and some who never went to school, but all good, husky wrestlers for the pigskin The days program will be concluded with a military drill by the Indian school cadets and band, showing the contrast between the native and his educated brother of the same genera tion, all in one grand performance and for one price of admission.
 Superintendent Clark yesterday re- ceived from the east his billboard posters for advertising the fair. There are 800 large three sheet posters of two different designs, 500 sin gle sheets of five assorted kinds, and 500 half sheets of five assorted kinds. There are just 800 billbOards in the territory and it is proposed that each one of them shall be properly ornamented, for which purpose one man will be sent north and another south at once.
 The superintendent is also receiving daily, letters from various women ac- different towns in the territory ack- knowledging receipt of their appoint ment by Mrs. w. F. Nichols, who has charge of the woman's department. and accepting the responsibility of looking after the work of that depart ment in their respective localities. The letters indicate that the women do not propose to allow their exhibit to go by default.

MEAT roo HIGH.
Germany Finds Herself Worried Over
 the Situation.

Berlin. July 20.-The price of meat has risen in Germany from 20 to 25 per cent during the last six months. so that now prices are higher by 30 to 35 per cent than in the neighboring con- tinental States. The prices outside of Germany usually are 10 to 15 per cent lower. Popular appeals directed by the organized meat dealers are being made to the Government, both here and in the provinces. to raise a prohibition against the importation of live cattle Six public meetings in this connection were held at Cologne last night The Butchers Association of Berlin is plan- ning a number of agitation assem- the retailers today allowing for diff ferences in weights an dmoney were:
 Fillet of beef. 42 cents per pound; boiling beef. 27 cents; pork, 31 1-2 cents: veal. 31 1-2 cents.
 The agitation for cheaper meat by abolishing the exclusion laws recurs at intervals. The laws are based as in the case of American canned meats, on sanitary grounds: but the contention Is constantly advanced that the sanitary regulations are made unnecessarily se- were in order to prohibit cattle and meat imports in the interest of the German farmer. The Deutche Tages- Zeitung, the principal agrarlan organ, has a leading article in nearly every evenings issue affirming that Germany can and ought to raise all the cattle she consumes. and that in fact the rise 1 nthe price of meat is due to the butch CTS associations, to fine meat shops and to increased rents. The question for the moment engages general public at tention.

DEMURRER SUSTAINED. Original Indictment Against William T. Sheets Waa Quashed

On technicality the indictment against William Thomas Sheets, a white man. charged with the murder of his son, Claude Sheets. on the Red Bridge Road several weeks ago. was quashed in the City Court of Montgomery yesterday. Sheets. how ever, was held without bail to await the action of the next Grand Jury.
 It will be remembered that 1t was al legged at the time of the killing that Sheets had taken his sons life while both men were engaged in a drunken brawl on Easter Sunday.
 He was arraigned before Judge William H. Thomas yesterday to have his case set for a hearing. At that time flaw in the indictment was discovered. In writing the indictment, the solicitor overlooked writ ing the words with malice aforethought" Solicitor Dent admitted his error. The in dictment was thrown out. but Sheets was held to await the action of q future Grand Jury.
 Prisoners charged with capital feionies were arraigned and their cases set down for trial follows:
 July 31.-Gilbert Thomas. murder; Henry Harris, rape: Jim Captin. murder.
 August 1.--J. D. Glass, Frank Bedsole murder; Sydney Davis. murder.

STRIKE AT AN END
TRANSFERS MAKE COMPLETE SUR-
 RENDER IN CHICAGO.
Today the Erstwhile Disgruntled Driv- CTS Will Seek Their old PO- siti0ns, Without an Agree
 ment With Employers.

Chicago, July 20.-The end of the teamsters' strike that has so greatly disturbed business conditions in this city for the la tsthree months Is at hand. The strikers have made a com plete surrender and will tomorrow seek their old positions, without an agreement of any kind with the em- ployers
 The first break in the ranks of the strikers came this afternoon when the lumber teamsters voted to return to work. regardless of what action might be taken by an yother union. Tonight the department store drivers and the railway express drivers voted to cali off the strike and seek their old posi- tions fin the moning. It is expected that about SO per cent. of the depart ment store drivers will be reinstated and the express drivers declared to- night that they believed 100 of their number would be taken back by the express companies. The express com- paiies have declared all through the strike, however, that noe one of the men who struck would ever be rein stated. A Tomorrow the truck drivers and one Or two smaller unions will vote on the question of calling off the strike. but there is no doubt that they will decide to seek their old places again. The officials of the teamsters' union declare that they expect such action to be taken. :.-'
 The only concession that the men have gained by going back to work is in the case of the lumber drivers-the right to wear the union button. In the case of all others unions the men, by seeking their old places, tacitIy agree to the terms of the employers, which were that only such men would be taken back as were needed after non union men had been provided for, and that the question of wearing the union button should be left to the de- cision of the individual employer
 The strike has been one of the most annoying. bitterly fought and expen- sive affairs of its kind that Chicago has ever known. It originated las. winter over the demand of the Car ment Workers Association that the firm of Montgomery Ward and Com pany refrain from sending out any Work to non-union men, although there was fin the contract between Ward and Company and the unions no clause pro- workers employed by Ward and Com pany went on strike and their places were filled by non-union men, Four months after the strike of the gar ment workers. the teamsters union call ed on Ward and Company to arbitrate the strike. The refusal of Ward am! Company was followed by a strike of all the teamsters in their employ an1 the strike rapidly spread to such other business houses as attempted to msk deliveries to Ward and Company About thirty lives were lost during the strike and there have been hundreds of cases of assault, in many of which the victims were seriously injured
