secured, that is by giving every one
who has any pride, and with that
pride the means, an opportunity to

the perpetual existence of our library.
The library is town affair, and the
proposed building will be presented
to the town when completed.

SODA Pop CRUSADE
CHANGES POLICE.

Captain of Police John Mooney of
the City Hall station is continuing his
icecream soda crusade against the
members of his squad with great vfgor.
He is playing the new game of discf-
pline so strong that yesterday he
called all his men before him and ere
they had time to figure out what was
going to happen he changed all their
beats.
Consequently there is weeping and
gnashing of teeth among. the members
of the City Hall brigade Men who for
years have strutted proudly along a
street where almost every man, woman
and child knew them by their first
names have suddenly found themselves
away out in the midst of the fog belt.
where they Will havesto begin all over
again and learn the lay of the land.
The only man on the payroll at the
City Hall station who retains his old
beat is Patrolman Charles Uhte. Moo
ney called the latter before him and
much to the surprise of that officer
confided in him that he is a faithful
worker and not given to the icecream
soda habit. Uhte is now the proudest
officer on Fillmore street.
Captain Mooney believes that his men
were becoming too familiar with the
free lunch route. He learned that many
of them were developing marked ap-
petiteS for water ices, SODA pop anC
other LIQUID delicacies that threatened
to bring on dyspepsia. The captain is
a considerate man, and, fearing that his
brayest might become i'll through over
indulgence in soft beverages, he de-
cided to give them one more chance tc
avoid the alluring nectars.
If the present plans of the captain
are carried out the men will be
switched around again in a few weeks
It will therefore hardly be necessary
for them to become ambitious In theii
tricacies of all the icecream stands
They will be forced hereafter to attend
to auenching their soda pop thirst:
when they are off watch and decorated
with fancy vests and loud hose insteaC
of big stars and brass buttons.

EVIDENCE FAILS IN
PF|TzNER CASE.

The failure of one link in the chain
of evidence connecting Ralph Seaman
and Louis. Taylor, alias Howard, with
the murder of Johan Pftzner, the Nc
Allister-street merchant. has caused
Captain of Detectives Duke TO delay
making a formal charge against the
supposed slayers. There is still enough
evidence to warrant holding them, but
the continuity of the proof has been
upset
Samuel Gordan of Angels Camp, who
identified the prisoners as men seen by
him on McAllister street on the after
noon of the murder, has been able to
fix the exact time at which he saw
them. The murder was committed at
3.45 o'clock on the afternoon Of August
20. sGordan remembered that he had
been there on that afternoon. but he
could not fix the precise time. Last
night he informed Captain. Duke that
through Wolf Davis, tailor, employed
by Frank Brothers he has been. able
to fix the time at L o'clock. three hours
before the crime was committed This
Will necessarily lessen the value of his
testimony and take away one Of the
strongest links,
Davis, when questioned by Detectives
Mulcahy and Matheson, declared that he
had met Gordan at 1 o'clock. He was
positive as to the hour. because at the
time of the meeting he was returning
from luncheon. and was obliged to be
back at the store by 1 o'clock. -
IT do not think" says Captain Duke,
that the failure of Gordan's testimony
will embarrass us in the prosecution of
these men. We still have stronger
clews to work upon. and within a
few days we will, 1 hope, be able. to
make a formal charge

WASHINGTON. Nov. ,2-The acci-
dent bulletin issued by the Interstate
Commerce Commission for the three
months ended June 30, 1906. shows the
total number of railroad casualties to
passengers and employees while on duty
to be ls,9S7, as against 1926 in the
preceding three months.
The numbers of passengers and en-
ployes killed in train accidents was
1874, as against PA in the preceding
three months. The total number of
collisions and derailments were 3l03
Of which 173 collisions and 1873 derail-
ments affected passenger trains. The
damage to cars, engines and roadway
by these accidents amounted to $2,373,-
924
The number of employees killed in
coupling and uncoupling cars and en-
gines was sixty eight being sixteen
less than the number reported in the
previous quarter.
For the year ended June 80 there
was an increase of SAC in the total

IRON AND STEEL
ADVANCING.
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2.-Bradstreet's to-
morrow will say: Clear and colder
weather has improved retail trade and
stimulated recorder business greatly. In
dustry is active. labor scarcity is still
feature; iron and steel markets are
advancing, and large imports are the
only apparent source of relief.
Wool prices are steadier after the
large transactions of the past two
weeks, which have lifted a load from
dealers hands and made manufacturers
more content in their minds, now that
large supplies of raw materials have
been secured. Copper is dull, but
prices are not being shaved.
Car congestion and backward grain
deliveries due thereto are having Sc
rious effect on that trade Dealings in
future business are restricted. and the
export trade is at a standstHl. Higher
prices for available supplies are a
feature

Canadian failures for the week num-
Der twenty-one, as against twenty last
week and twenty-siX in this week a
year ago
Wheat, including -four, exports from
week ending November l aggregated
4,492,974 bushels, against 6,2S3,399 this
week last year. For the past eighteen
weeks of the fiscal year the exports are
62,666.469 bushels, against 33,255,S27
in 1905.
r. G. Dun & Co.'S Weekly Review of
Trade tomorrow will say; Colder
weather has removed one of the draw
backs to seasonable distribution of mer-
chandise, but there is still much com
plant of traffic conditions. Retail
trade shows improvement in nearly all
sections, and mercantile collections are
more prompt. Eastern wool sales have
attained record proportions by the late
fall demand for woolens. Primary re-
ceipts of wheat are not in keeping with
maximum crop on account of freight
delays.
After much irregularity the wheat
market shows a substantial advance for
the week. Flour output increased
somewhat, but is still far behind the
production a year ago and mills find
profits curtailed by the firmness Of
raw material. Coarse grains are less
active and fiuctuate within narrow
margins.
