Of the complaints but enough was re-
vealed by persons high up in the service,
whose names for obvious reasons may
not be used, to say that the greatest
number of complaints have come from
the Independent Association Of General
Citizens, who, relying upon preseason
indications, purchased largely of heavy

making the usual January advance in

The recent weather will be an impor-

InduCement of $50 a Month
to 90 on Police Force Not
Attractive to Him.
WILL REMAIN AT STARTS
GENERALLY BELIEVED THAT
PAY OF PATROIMEN is TOO
LOW-IITTLE LIKELIHOOD OF
AN ADVANCE AT PRESENT.

Frank Farwig who a few days ago
was selected to fill vacancy on the
police force, has declined to accept
the place and will remain at the Starr
Piano Works where he is valued
employee. The inducements held out
to good men to go on the force are
not of a tempting sort. The force at
the present time is made up Of ex-
cellent men and the police commits
sioners are making an earnest en-
deavor when new men are to be ap-
pointed to maintain the standard of
efficiency.
1t is declared that the salary of
$50 a month with every night IN the
week on duty, is not causing a great
many men to leave positions in fac
tories for place on the police force.
The pay of policemen, it is believed
by many, should be increased. not on
ly in Richmond but elsewhere. One
of the arguments offered in support
of this is that while wages of factory
men, have as rule, been advancing
in the past dozen years the police
Years ago $50 was considered big
pay for policemen, when the salary
was compared with those paid to fac
tory men. Today it is below the
standard wages received by the skill
ed laborers in the factories and there
are but six days work There is no
likelihood that the salaries Of police
men will be increased, however, u1-
less the Legislature should show a
different attitude toward the matter
than it has in the past. Efforts have
been made for several years and
again will be made at the coming ses-
sion of the Indiana legislature to re

so long as there is contention or in
the legislature as to the merits or de- |
merits of this system, it will not bel

IA ON SUBJECT.

Washington, Nov S.-While on the
isthmus Of Panama President Roose-
welt will look into conditions affecting
employees and mechanics, data con-
corning which has been furnished by
President Gompers and President
O'Connell of the American Federation
OF Labor. Mr.. O'Connell talked with
the president, particularly about the
machinists, about 400 of whom are
now employed on the isthmus. Their
arrangement into classes is different
from that in vogue in the United
States, and which complexities mat
tiers. It also is alleged that the 8-hour
law respecting this class of labor is
being violated and President Roose-
welt was asked to take up this and
various other matters affecting the
housing, transportation, etc, of men.
Viscount Oako, Japanese ambassa-
dor, called at the White House to say
goodby to President Roosevelt before
the latter's departure for Panama.

post and retire from the British dip
lomatic service next spring. The fact
that Lord Curzon is now on the sea
between Great Britain and this coun-
try and has announced that he will
visit in this country for some time
lends color to the rumor of his APP
pointment to the Washington post.

COAST GUNS DEFECTIVE
REPORT OF GEN. CROZIER
Twelve Inch Guns Now Used i'm Most
of Coast Fortifications, it is Claimed
Would Not Last Through an En-
qagement of Two Hours.
Publishers Press

Washington, Nov. S.-That the r.
inch gun now in use at most of the
coast Notifications of the United
States would not last through an en-
gagement of two hours of the period
that would elapse from the time the
leading vessel of the fleet within the
range until the last vessel would pass
beyond the range of the guns is the
statement Of Brigadier General Viii
liam Crozier, chief of ordnance, whose
annual report was made public at the
war department General Crozier
thinks it is of the utmost Importance
that some method be devised whereby
the necessary gun power can be Sc
cured with less expense than that in
volving the very high velocities of
projectiles now employed, with the ac-
companying rapid wearing away OF
the rifling in such a manner as to de-
stroy the accuracy OF the gun after
q few rounds. The 12-inch gun will
last for about 60 rounds. and as the
gun is capable of firing for consider
able interval at the rate Of 45 rounds
per hour. it can be seen that the limit
of the life of this gun could be reach
ed in less than an hour and half.
BY lowering the velocity of the 12-inch
projectiles from $500 feet to $3.50
feet per second, the life of the gun is
increased to 200 rounds.
The chief of ordnance states that it
appears that by using in the situa-
lions requiring the greatest power a
14inch gun with 2,150 feet per second
velocity of projectile instead of the
Pinch gun with $500 feet per second
initial velocity the army would secure
better gun and a gun which would
last four times as long

CALIFORNIA; PROTEST.
Declare for State Rights on Japanese
Question.

San Francisco. = Resolutions de-
nouncing President Roosevelt's mes
sage to Congress on the Japanese stu
alton in San Francisco, resenting his
interference in the domestic affairs OF
the state, expressing want of conf
dence In Secretary Metcalf and declar-
ing that his report to the President on
the Japanese school question as being
utterly unworthy of credence in any
particular" and containing numerous
misstatements and Misrepresentation
obviously one-sided and grossly exag-
gerated," were adopted at a mass
meeting held Sunday afternoon at Wal
IONS pavilion under the auspices OF
The Japanese and Korean Exclusion
League.
Mayor Schmitz said that he was
willing to lay down his life by the
side of his fellow men in fighting the
Japanese hordes." He said that 1t was
4 question of self-preservation for the
merchant and business man, as well as
Tor the laborer and declared that the
Japanese were more of menace than
he Chinese. If naturalized, as proposed
by President Roosevelt, he said, they
would come to California in such nuIn-
oers that they would not only soon
control the state by their votes but
would make inroads into the pros
oerity of the country.
Walter Macarthur said that the "peo-
ole of California will defend their state
ghts against the assumption of these
after day federalists," and declared
hat the issue of state rights raised by
the Presidents message has super.
seded the issue of the segregation OF
The Japanese children.
The other speakers addressed the
meeting along similar lines, defending
state rights, and characterized the
Presidents attitude as "meddling in
he affairs Of this state"

clared that so per cent. of the cases OF
cancer which are brought to the atten-
hon of physicians In the first stages
may be cured. In the course Of his Ice
ture DR.. Sem advocated the establish
ment of some sort of bureau to keep
the public informed as to the nature
and the cures Of cancer, as is done in
some cities of Europe. Many OF the
victims OF cancer prevent cures by be-
coming respondent and keeping away
from good physicians, he said.
"If the disease Is detected in its
early stages cure may be affected" :"
said DR.. Sem, but il 1t is allowed to
go to an advanced stage nothing can

He said the fight started on the

the lioness jumped onto the deer,
which turned and fought the lioness
with its antlers and hoofs. They
rolled dowT the hillside into a gulch,
breaking down oak trees as they
fought. The battle did not last great
while, as the lioness was much the
stronger. The deer was badly clawed
and chewed and soon fell from loss OF

Some interesting experiments in
strawberry culture are reported from
the truck farming districts of the
southern states. The most recent re-
suits are announced from a small val
ley In Tennessee. There the fruit grow
ers have successfully produced sec
ond crop of strawberries which equals
the first of the season. The work has
been accomplished through cultivating
the beds and forcing the plants into
bearing for the second time every year.
AS a result the New York markets are
to be supplied with choice berries for
the holidays. The innovation prom
ises to make big difference in the
demand for cranberries and other
fruits.
