Springfield. Mass, Feb. 6.-Fhe
STANDARD Oil company has reduced the
wholesale price of burning oil in the
Springfield district Y cent a gallon,
establishing a low level of cents a
gallon. Large dealers, by system of
rebates, it is said, are paying less than
5 cents.
The reduction, following a cut of II
cent last month. is construed to in
dictate that the trust is determined to
throttle the Four Brothers Oil COM
pany, which in a year has acquired
more than half of the local wholesale
trade of the monopoly. The independ-
ent company will continue to sell oil
at 7% cents. If the trust makes a
further cut the Independent company

MINERS RETURN TO WORK.
Accept German Governments Promise
of Adjustment.

Berlin, Feb 6.-Two to three thou
sand coal miners who struck in the
Silesian district returned to work to-
day believing that the governments bill
now in preparation Will Teadjust their
relations with their employers. The
governments proposed law limits tho
working day to nine hours in galleries
where the temperatures are about 20
degrees Fahrenheit, including the time
going in and coming out Of the mines.
In tempera tures of "a degrees Fahren-
heit and higher only a six hour day is
permitted. Within two or three years
the nine hour day is to be shortened to
eight and one-half hours. About nine
tentbs of the miners Of Germany come
within these provisions.
The disallowing Of entire cars of coal
because of the presence Of foreign sub
stances is to be forbidden. Fines may
be assessed but these must not exceed
81 to $1.50 per month. Overtime win
be paid for at the highest rate.
Workmen's committees shall be rec

ing the men.
Making the present condition Of this

TAILoRs MEET.
First National Convention Of Union in
Twelve Years.

Bloomington. ILL.,, Feb. 6.-The first
national convention of the Journeymen
Tailors' union in IL years opened here
today. John 3. Lennon, general secre-
tary in discussing the open shop said:
"A union shop is not under union rules
and practices a closed shop to non
unionists- We do not object to giving
employment to those who are not mem
bers. After, however, the non unionist
has been employed If an agreement ex-
lists with our union as to prices and
conditions Of labor we insist that the
non-union man or woman shall cast
their lot with our organization in the
maintenance of wages and other con-
ditions of labor"
Mr.. Lennon recommended a fedora
ton of tailors with the garment work
ers of America. During the year there
was a net gain of SO locals with a pres
ent total membership of 10000 members.
Strike or lockout benefits have been
paid to 81 locals. the total amount of
benefit expended being S84. 842. The re-
cent strike at Denver cost the organiza-
ton $4,000.
Samuel Gompers, president of the
American Federation of Labor, spoke to
the delegates at the afternoon session.

WOMAN WAS CRAzED.
Mailed Draft to Indiana Parties From
Coffeyville.

Coffeyville, Feb. 6.-The Record
says: Inquiry has been received in this
city by Postmaster Barndollar as to
the Whereabouts of Mrs. Edmunds.
The party asking for the information
lives in Wabash, Indiana
Last summer Mrs. Edmunds went to
a real estate dealer in Wabash, Ind.
and told him that she had heard that
the town was a desirable place to live
and she would like to purchase prep
erty. The agent showed Mrs. Ed
Inunds over the city and the woman
finally decided on a piece of property
belonging to August Wasman.
Mrs. Edmunds told the real estate
man that if he would prepare a deed
and furnish abstract she would mail
him a draft from this place for $500
as payment on the property which
was to cost $3.50O. She told Mr..
The Topeka state journal. [volume] (Topeka, Kansas) 1892-1980, 1905-02-06

Strands that her husband had just
died, leaving her considerable money.
The woman left and in about a week
a draft of $500 was received by the
real estate agent for Wasman- The
letter accompanying the draft which
was mailed at Coffeyville, told the
agent to hold another piece of prop
erty that she would buy for $500.
Then the woman mysteriously dis
appeared. Nothing has been heard of
her since. Letters were written to
this place in an endeavor to find sone-
thing of her wherea bouts, but so far
all efforts have proved futile.
Mrs. Edmunds' name does not ap-
pear in the city directory and no one
seems to know anything about her.
There is a possibility that the wo-
man was partially deranged.
The real estate dealer in Wabash
says that the woman was perfectly
rational when she made the contract
for the property. He can not account
for her strange action in the matter
unless there has been foul play COM
mitted.

COL. AsHBAUGH HEARD FROM.
Veteran Auctioneer Raises His Voice
Against Proposed State Bill.

/ "Col" J. NJ Ashbaugh, the veteran
iauctfOneer who has been heard in ana
about Topeka for many years, has
signed his name to an open letter to
the legislature entitled Don't Auction
Away Kansas.
He warns the legislature and the
public by saying:
Don't combine the auctioneers of
Kansas and force the farmers to pay
4 and per cent for selling stock and
farm implements at auction"
In his open letter Col" Ashbaugh
ITO the Members of the Legislature
and the Public:
"Gentlemen--From the press and
other information 1 am advised that
an auctioneerS' bill has been prepared
by a set of pretenders who claim to be
an organization of auctioneers, but
who should be, properly labeled an
orga nization of Would-be'S, seeking to
create a new office for themselves to
draw salary from. This can be the
only object of such a bill to create
board for the examination, control and
direction of auctioneers, to be known
as the state auctioneers' board of ex-
aminers' Such a bill proposition is
so ludicrous and ridiculous that It
ought not to require a condemnation
to Justify the sending of the bill to the
waste basket instanter. No one
thought of such a. preposterous propo-
sition except a few fellows who want
to create positions for themselves that
pockets of others for q sustenance.
"Auctioneers are simply crying ven
ders Of goods for public sales, ana you
might as we'll organize a board or con-
troll for every character of business. as
to provide one for auctioneers. There
would be more logic in a poultry
board or a swine board. or board
for kline culture or a board of grave
diggers,' or cemetery keepers or FOR
bath house regulation candy and
peanut venders.' or a board for the
regulation and control of 'bootblacks,'
or shoemakers.' or thousand other
things equally as important as auc-
tiOneers. 1 have been an saucuoneer
nearly all my life, and expect to con-
tinue in the business as long as I can
find persons to desire my services
need no certificate to establish my
qualifications or integrity, that is en-
tirely a matter between me and my
employer A lifelong resident of Kan
sas, I protest against such an imposi-
ton on the people of this state,
through it's legislature, or upon the
free pursuit of ones vocation with
honor, dignity and capacity.
THE person who is incapable of per-
forming the duties of public vendor at
vendues, or auctions. will not long OBJ
such a calling. The public do not en-
plOy persons who cannot perform these
simple duties for them. and why there
should be state control or regulation to
enable few to graft off of the public.
is beyond ordinary comprehension.
protest against the passage of such a
law, as an insult to the intelligence of
the legislature of the state of Kansas,
and its people.
I'VE have 362 auctioneers in the state
of Kansas, so of whom are members of
the Kansas Auctioneers' association,
the remainder have not. nor will not,
sanction any bill looking to the forma-
ton of an auctioneers' combination.
Yours sincerely,

The promoters are carefully guarding

are about perfected, the required capital
having been pledged by those interested in
the move as a last resort to combat the

names has secured control Of the oil mar

New York Storm Becomes More
Embarrassing to Traffic.

New York. Feb. with miles Of
resident streets in the upper part of
Manhattan island and in Brooklyn
piled high with snowbanks, the dis
comfort which the people of New
York have experienced from bad
weather recently, was increased today
when a snowstorm which began last
evening was changed into a heavy fall
of rain and sleet that covered side
walks and car rails with an icy coat
ing. Streets and crossings in many
sections of the citywere flooded. Travel
by either surface or elevated lines was
much impeded owing to slippery rails
and numerous minor accidents attest
ed to the difficulty under which traffic
was moved. Huge fields of floating
ice still filled portions of the rivers
and harbors and delayed travel by
ferry.

In these days of humbuggery and

is refreshing to note that the proprl-

any undue claims or false representa-

most excellent remedy for dyspe psia
and stomach troubles. They make but
one claim for it, and that is, that for
Indigestion and various stomach
troubles Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets is
a radical cure. They go no farther
than this, and any man or woman SUI

nervous dyspepsia, who will give the
remedy a trial will find that nothing
lis claimed for it that the facts will not
fully sustain.
