KILLED AT HEGEWISCH.

With the blood of Jacob Rokosz
still on the Nickel Plate crossing in
Hegewisch, where he had been killed
on Tuesday night NJ Mohaik, an
other foreigner, met his fate in the
same manner in the same place last
night, being struck by a south bound
freight, while on his way from the
car shops where he had been work
ing overtime. Like RolSosz, his fam
lily lives in Europe and he will be
buried and forgotten in Hegewisch by
the time that they hear of his sad
death.
Mohaik was not dead instantly,
like Rokosz. He lived long enough
to be taken to st. Margaret's hospital
where he died as he was laid on the
operating table.

WILL ROCKEFELLER
MAKE ALCOHOL 2

THE papers have printed accounts
recently, of an alleged attempt on the
part of John D. Rockefeller. to buy
out the distilleries of the country and
create a whisky trust. The idea is
preposterous on the face of it. The
formation of trusts is only successful
where it is possible to control the raw
material. The steel trust, for ex-
ample, where the most productive
mines are owned or leased by steel
magnates who are back of the enter
prise, the copper trust. the promoters
of which own all of the most pro-
duetive mines, the sugar and tobacco
control of the output in this country
and where the danger of flooding the
market with foreign raw sugar is
minimized by the erection of taffir
walls and the oil trust, the greatest OF
them all, is master of the situation
for the simple reason that it controls
so per cent of the output of all the
oil wells of the country When. how
ever. John ID. Rockefeller. with all
his millions and his unlimited back
ing attempts TO corner the corn crop
of the country and secure control oil
this, the raw material from which
alcohol is produced, he will find that
even a Rockefeller's fortune has linn
itations. He can never make the
farmers accessories to his trust max.
ing schemes. The whisky trust with
a financial backing that would in
itself have guaranteed the success OF
an enterprise where the raw material
= could have been controlled has beer
compelled to reduce its capital be-
cause of its inability to pay dividend:
on its capital stock The trust idea
has already reached the limit of its
possibilities and while trusts may in
crease in number, the indications art
that none will exceed in power ant
capital involved. the giants of tn,
business world that have already
been brought into existence.

Six automobile loads of Hammond

are not compelled to haul the other
three into La Porte.

Send Down Grace,

A little Portland miss, whose first
name is Grace, had never attended
church, being too little and too lively
to be trusted there, according 10 the
Kennebec Journal. But at last her
mother permitted her to accompany
an elder sister, giving her grave warn
ings beforehand The rector Of the
church was a frequent caller at Grace's
home, and her mother feared that on
this account she might take liberties.
You must sit STILL" she said, land
you must not say one word, but let
Mr.. Hammond do the talking. Now.

IMMATURE VIRTUOSO HERE.

Two little Chicago boys were in
Hammond yesterday, one carrying a
guitar and the other a violin. The
smaller of the two, was barely eight
years old but his ability to finger his
violin made him friends wherever he
appeared. Those who heard the
urchin predict a future for him. His
instrument was an old one and
weatherbeaten. the bow had prob
ably not seen rosin for the past week.
still the little fellow made music.
1t was rather pathetic to see him
sidle up to his larger brother and
with his own big eyes seemingly read
the tunes that he saw in his brothers
They went back to Chicago last night
where a sick mother waited their re-
turn.

THE recent bank failures are caus-
ing depositors in other institutions
to wonder whether they had better
trust their savings to the tender
mercies of the banker, or burglar.
The only way to determine the rela-
tive merits of a bank account or a
stocking in the bureau drawer is to
look up the statistics and ascertain
just what the ratio of moneys stolen
holds to those deposited for one year,
and then compare the result with the
ratio of money stolen by burglars in
comparison with the stocking savings
Add the amount spent because the
stocking is more handy than the saw
ing bank, divide by the number OF
stockings, multiply by the number on
savings banks and add the burglars
The result will be the age of Ann.

TT IS a curious analogy that most
of the failures of recent times in
wolves the character OF a well known,
respected and God fearing church
member. In the Philadelphia fail
ure. we are treated TO the inevitable
spectacle of a pillar of the church go
ing wrong. A trustee of various re-
ligious institutions. an honorable and
conscientious member OF one of the
most exclusive congregations in the
Quaker City, plundering and robbing
the people, and dissipating fortunes
of others in reckless speculations.
Why not, for experiments sake, fill
these high positions of trust from
the ranks of ex-conyicts and reformed
holdup men? If there is any
truth in the saying that there is
honor among thieves, it would cer-
tainl be worth the trial What a
pity 1t is we cannot put Jean VAL
jean at the head of our financial in
situations and safeguard the peoples

NEW YORK LETTER.

New York. Aug. 30-Shorts in
Union Pacifcs were given another
jar" today. This stock opened at
100 Il. fully a point and one-half
over last nights final sale. The buy
ing was mostly by brokers who have
been affiliated with the Hartman in
terests in their recent bull campaign
There were liberal offers of this Sc
curity 10 the shorts around 100 in
the early trade. After their urgent
wants We're supplied, the market re-
acted TO 1S9. Then another boom
was started in Union and Southern
Pacific. the former selling up to
1871 q, new high record and the
latter at 81 q On the advance over
191 for Union Pacific, the offerings
were simply astounding, one lot Of
$500 shares chanNng hands at one
quotation. This selling produced a
recation of two points from the high
est prices obtained and in the decline
it brought the balance of the market
with it. St. Paul broke from III q
the early high point, down to 49,;
Sugar from 14O1a to 1881; Shelters
from 1913 to 1851 and the general
list depreciating on an average of
one to two points.
For the first time in months there
was evidence of a stringency in the
money market. Call loans were made
as high as 8 per cent. This empha-
sizes the arguments recently advanc-
ed that the west would be compelled
to draw on Wall street for funds to
move the crops and these withdraw
ais will have an effect on stock mark
ct operations. 1t may only be tenn
porarily, however, but its effect has
tendency to restrain any undue
speculation by the bull leaders.
The market generally closed ex-
ceedingly irregular with losses appar-
ent in almost every active issue or
the list. Total sales 1926, 900
Money closed at Z per cent.

WHAT CAN A POOR GIRL Dor

A girl employed in the department
of agriculture at Washington at a

An exchange tells of an ignorant
fellow who was about to get married.
He wanted to be perfect in his an
swers to the questions propounded by
the minister, so he studied what he
thought would be the ceremony for
the occasion. But somehow he got
the marriage ceremony of the Meth
odist discipline mixed up with that
part of the ritual that has to do
with the taking of members into the
church. So when the clergyman
asked him in the church "Wilt thou
have this woman to be thy welded
wife?" The bridegroom answered in
a solemn tone, L renounce them all. -

piled, ''All this I steadfastly believe. -

MRS. LIMA BUTTNER
LOSES HER SUIT.

AnSOctuteu r1GbS 10 VRe EveuuD8 11meos
Pittsburg, Sept 1.-THE master has
refused to grant Mrs. Lima Buttner
divorce from her husband, DR.: Chris
tian Buttner, on the grounds of cuel
and barbarous treatment in that he
compelled her to eat health foods and
would not give her as much money as
she desired to buy clothes. The couple
were married In June. 1894, and sep
arated in October, 1902, Mrs. Buttner
leaving her husbands homie and go
ing to reside with her mother in Sen
AGA street, where she has lived since
DR.. Buttner was practicing dentist,
and both he and his wife are we'll
known musicians.
Among the charges made by the Ii
bellant, were that the doctor was
health food" enthusiast, and not only
ate the different foods continually but
compelled her to do the same. Mrs
Buttner also said that in eight years
of married life she had spent. with her
husband he gave her less than 500
with which to clothe herself, and had
habit of telling her she was spend
thrift. No physical abuse was testified
to by Mrs. Buttner, but she alleged
the doctors sneering and overbearing
ways made her life with him intol-
cradle, and caused her to leave him.
DR.. Buttner made general denial
Of his wife's charges. The master in
making the recommendation that the
libel be dismissed finds that the testi-
mony does not prove that Mrs. Butt
ner's condition was such that she was
obliged. to leave her husbands house.
