SUSPECTED MURDERER
SUICIDES IN JAIL

TOWNER, N. D., July 11.-Abner
c. Martin, charged with the murder
of Conrad Pfeister, near Anamoose,
N. D., on the night of July 4, COM
mitted suicide in jail here yesterday
by taking poison: Martin had the
poison knotted into one corner of a
handkerchief and 1t was overlooked
when the man was searched. The
evidence against Martin was purely
circumstantial, but is said to have
been strong. Pfeister, his victim, was
rs years old, and Is said to have been
a scion of nobility: his parents liv-
ing in Leipsic, Germany.
The dead body OF Pfeister was
found on the roadway near Ana
moose, with bullet hole in the head.
The pockets: of the dead man had
been rifed and $25 and certain pa
pers he was known to have had with
him, were missing. A few hours
afterwards another man was fired
upon at the place where Pfeister's
body was found, but escaped unhurt
His assailant was seated In buggy
and after firing three shots drove
away at: rapid pace, This latter
occurrence n1ystif1ed the authorities,
who at first looked upon the case as
one of simple murder for gain. Cir
cumstances later seemed to point to
Martin as the muEderer and he was
arrested. The authorities have not
yet determined upon the actual mo-
tive for the murder and suicide.

CHICAGO PACKERS ARE
MAKING IMPROVEMENTS
Secretary Wilson Says Sanitary Con

CHICAGO, July 11.-Secretary of
Agriculture Wilson having to-day fin
ished his work in Chicago stated that
he was satisfied that the packers of
Chicago are making every effort to
put their plants in sanitary shape, and
that the department will put the re-
vised regulations into effect August /.
Il have met the inspectors, in
charge of federal reconstruction, from
the different cities 7ef the country"
said the secretary. :, They report that
conditions are improving everywhere.
l told them that inspection under the
new law established Immediately In
those houses where: the sanitary con-
ditions which affects the food product
justify it. I also told. them that no
inspection will, be given; to, esta blish-
rnents where the sanitary 4 cdnd it1ons
which affect the food product are not
perfect. .'5's y ~ Il-~...
practically all Of the Strengthening
and packing establishments in Chi
cago are on the way to sanitary con-
ditions, which will justify inspection
under the new law. In some cases inQ-
provements of a permanent character
will take place, but where want Of the
projected changes does not involve the
healthfulness of. the product the new
inspection will be inaugurated without
waiting for their completion.
Il am satisfied that the packers of
Chicago are using every effort to put
their plants In sanitary shape. The
department will be prepared with ad-
ditional men and revised regulations
on August l. I shall expect the plants
to be ready at that time. Those who
are ready will get. the inspection,
others cannot expect it."

German Employer Tells why His
Nation Has Commanding .&
80 Place in Trade. 49, .
It Is not High Wages so Much al
Advantages Which are Ac-
~. corded Them. .rs,- j,

During a recent interview a German
manufacturer, whose products go to all
quarters Of the. globe, said that 1T is
not their patents, nor their technical
force, but their workmen which gives
them a commanding place in trade.
Although German wages are low, he
enumerated some of the advantages
which German laborers enjoy.
Many. German concerns own dwell
hing houses and rent them to workmen
at actual cost. They provide restaur.
ants and meals at actual cost. furnish
fuel at wholesale cost, give transporta-
ton in whole or part to employees Nv-
ing at distance, pay pensions in GER
tain cases, and workpeople's reading
rooms. baths, hospitals, savings banks,
and cooking schools for girls are
maintained. s
THE annual report Of the Imperial
Insurance department for 1906, re-
Gently submitted to the Reichstag,
shows the sum paid to beneflciaries
under the compulsory insurance laws
In force for the protection of work
men. For accident injuries $32,415,-
00C was paid to 1,034,773 persons in
jured, or their dependents, an average
of practically one out Of every sixty
of the total population Of the empire.
Sick and INDECENT persons received last
year $38,0s0,0O0. Annuities were
granted to 145,412 persons. To these
sums is to be added $%0,460,000 paid
yearly from the local sick funds
(krankenkasse) throughout the en-
pire as sick benefits under the work

During the same year 200 concerns

other provisions for their welfare,
apart from wages, $27.608.ooo.
reference is also made to the
measures adopted by the Department
Of Mining of Prussia for miners
houses, of which 1886, with room for
1926 families. have been provided
wholly or partly at state expense.
Thirty-two buildings. with 5o51, beds.
have been provided for unmarried
mine employees in the same manneR
and are furnished at low prices.
1T Is perhaps too soon to determine
how these forms Of state and private
benevolence may finally come to be
viewed by workmen. Large manufac-
turing concerns by whom much atten-
ton has been given to the class OF
work referred to, have not wholly es>
capped labor troubles during the last
year. The employee, class has In some
cases shown an apathy toward present
advantages, and has. resorted to strikes
