TALKED TO OLD SOLDIERS
Vice President Fairbanks Visits
Grand Army Reunion at
Dodge City, Kan.

Dodge City, Kan, Aug 31.-Vice-
President Charles w. Fairbanks de-
livered a patriotic address here today
to several thousand old soldiers and
others, drawn from all parts of the
state, at the camp occupied by the
veterans attending the annual reunion
of the Kansas c.. A. r.
Vice-President Fairbanks said in
part:
I'VE have daily an increasing proof
of the value of the service of the Union
soldier in the cause of the republic.
It's expanding power, it's growing
grandeur were only possible through
the victory won by the heroic efforts
Of the mighty army of the Union.
The Grand Army of the Republic
has demonstrated full we'll that the
great body of the people may be relied
upon to fight it's battles; that the
American private citizen is readily
transformed into invincible fighting
material. The members of that army
made forever glorious American arms.
not only because they achieved a great
victory. but because they won it in an
everlastingly righteous cause. They
have the consciousness of a mighty
work well performed"
Later I'm the day Mr. Fairbanks took
a train for the west bound for Boise
City. Ida.

MAY Be
SETTLED TODAY
Mayor of San Francisco Bring
ing Street Railway and En-
ployeS Together.

San Francisco. Aug. 31.-There is a very
favorable outlook for the settlement
within the next twenty-four hours Of the
strike on the United Railways. This
morning President Calhoun of the railway
corporation and his assistant ThornweIl
Mutually, held long conference with
Mayor SchmitZ. The outcome of this
meeting was the authorization OF the
mayor by President Calhoun to offer ar
bitration of all disputed subjects to the
carmen. Mr. Calhoun insisted however.
that the strikers must first return 10
work before the work of arbitrating the
demands of the Garments union will be
taken up. Mayor Schmitz then summoned
President Cornelius and Secretary Bowl
ing Of the union and for number of
hours discussed with them the proposition
of Mr.. Calhoun and the strike situation
in general.
At the conclusion Of the discussion of
the officials of the union, issued a call
for a mass meeting of the members of
the organization TO be held tomorrow
morning at o'clock in the Central the
alter to take action on Calhouns offer.
Mayor Schmitz thinks that the end OF
the strike IS near. The carmen have al
ready agreed to arbitrate the matter OF
daily work hours and it is thought they
viii make a similar concession on the
wage question and return TO work pend
ing the decision OF the umpires.

NO CONSOLATION
FOR THE PACKERS
Meat Products Must Be Truth
fully Labeled or They Can
not Be Shipped.

Washington. Aug, 31.-Secretary Will
son assured the representatives of the
meat packing interests of the country
with whom he continued his confer
ence today that he had no authority to
extend beyond the LIST of October next
the placing OF labels on canned or other
meat products. He told the packers
fatty that they must be prepared on
that date properly to label their goods
or they would not be permitted to send
them through the channels Of interstate
commerce.
The question was raised as to the
status of the goods now on the shelves
of the wholesale and retail merchants
Of the country. The secretary said
it was manifestly impossible for the
government to inspect them. The
owners or holders of the goods, he sug-
gested, would have to take their
chances on selling them. One thing
was certain: They could not be shipped
from one state to another.

GREAT CROWDS GREETED
BRYAN IN CONNECTICUT
Democrats of New England Gathered
on the Green to Listen to the
Nebraskan.
Speeches Made at New Haven and at Bridgeport Which Were
Appauded to the Echo.

New Haven. Conn, Aug. 31.-The
visit of William Jennings Bryan TO
Connecticut today must have strongly
reminded him of the strenuous days
during his presidential campaigns, for
he delivered four addresses, each of
considerable length. attended two re-
ceptions and was the center of hand
shaking bees whenever his admirers
could reach him. All this was crowded
into the hours between noon when he
reached this city. and the hour of his
retirement tonight as the guest of for
nser Senator Archibald Mcneil of
Bridgeport. Everywhere he was heart
lily received. although there was an
absence of street demonstrations both
here and in Bridgeport. His audiences.
however, at times were wildly enthusi-
astic and especially at the noon lunch
con here.
Mr.. Bryan in Deadly Earnest.
The features OF the day were the
luncheon and the conference of the
New England Democrats. At the for
mer Mr.. Bryan was welcomed TO the
city and state with cordiality that
for warmth has seldom been extended
to visitor. and at the latter he stood
before a representative body of New
England Democrats and with great
earnestness spoke of the problems
which the party must face in the COM
ing campaigns. Mr.. Bryan said in the
course of this address that New Eng
land never had been a good breeding
place for Democracy; jefferson had
never considered IL SO; neither did
Jackson"
Rush All Day Long.
A delay at the start of Mr.. Bryans
trip caused an overlapping of the three
meetings here, to the disappointment
OF many. The mass meeting on the
Green had 20 be started before the
luncheon was actually over and the
Democratic conference was not COM
pleted until it was time for Mr.. Bryan
20 deliver his third address of the day.
The chief change in the program here
was the inclusion of Ex-Governor Gar
vim of Rhode Island as one OF the 9TH
or speakers after the address he had
prepared for the luncheon had been
ruled out as being out of place as a
strictly non-partissn gathering, the
change being made at the last moment.
Mr.. Garvin spoke at the luncheon, how
ever. paying a tribute TO the upright
ness of MIR. Bryan.
Address at Bridgeport.
Mr.. Bryan left New Haven for
Bridgeport shortly before o'clock. i'm
that city going TO the home of Mr. Nc
Neil for dinner and later addressing
an audience at the armory. Both of
his main addresses at the mass meet
ings were along the lines of his adj
dress at Madison Square Garden last
night touching upon issues which he
has declared to be of paramount i'm
portance at this time. Tomorrow morn
ing Mr.. Bryan will return TO New
York. Most of the members of his par
~ who were with him today left for
their homes tonight.
