CAR BLOCKADE is DEADLY
Thousands Forced to Walk in Chicago
When "L" Suddenly Halts-Girl
Caught in Crush.

CHICAGO, H., Jan. 15.-Thousands
of persons were forced to walk to work
today by complete tie-up in the loop
district of all elevated trains.
Many passengers walked along the ele-
waited structure to the nearest station.
Officials of the road offered no reason.
The blockade was the indirect cause of
fatal injuries sustained by Miss Lillian
Dahlke, 10 years of age With many
others, Miss Dahlke was standing on the
platform on Canal street. When the
first train stopped at this station she was
pushed from the platform in the rush to
board the cars She fell between the
train and the platform. and it was neces-
sary to chop away a portion of the plat.
form to extricate her. Her spine was
fractured.

SELL GIRLS IN STATE
EVIDENCE AT LA CROSSE SHOWS
PRACTICE AMONG SYRIANS.
License Asked for Girl of Is Bid In
for $500 and Later Quoted
at $3.50.

LA CROSSE, Wis, Jan. 15.-[Spe-
cial. 1.-The county authorities today be-
gan an official investigation of charges
laid before them to the effect that girls
under the age of consent, which in Wis
consin is II years, are being sold to the
highest bidders in the Syrian colony at
North La Crosse.
The investigation was ordered as the
result of an attempt to secure a mar
riage license for a girl ID years old to a
Syrian transient merchant. Evidence
was then submitted that the girl had
been bid in for $500 in behalf of the
prospective groom, and that her parents,
on receiving a bid of $3.50 in a later
mail from a Syrian at Oshkosh, were at
tempting to repudiate the first sale.
The Wisconsin law provides a severe
penalty for traffic of this kind and an or
der has been issued to sft the case to
the bottom.

NATION OF SALT EATERS.
A Barrel Year Is Consumed for
Every Three Persons.

A Barrel n Year Is Consumed for
Every Three Persons.
The United States consumes 26,S72,-
700 barrels of salt annually, or bar
rel for every three persons in the
land. Last year it went abroad for
only 1,151,133 barrels. In 1880 63.5
per cent of the salt used in our coun-
try was Of home production. Last year
o5.7 per cent Of the product consumed
was produced within the borders of
this country. In 1880 the consumption
in this country was only 9,3S4,2 bar
rels. Thus we see that the people Of
the United States are using annually
three times as much salt as they used
twenty-six years ago.
ONLY 1851 900 barrels were pro-
duced in this country in 1880, and the
consumers were forced to go abroad
for 3,427639 barrels Last year the
total production at home was 1885,
122 barrels
The chief salt-producing States are
Michigan and New York. Statistics
recently gathered by the government
show that the combined output of these
two States amounts to more than two
thirds of the total production Of the
United States.
No attempt has ever been made to
ascertain what per cent of the salt
consumed in the United States is used
for culinary purposes. The annual
output is consumed in the industries of
Matchmaking, fish curing, dairying and
the like. The chlorination Of gold ores
demands large quantity, and great
quantities of salt in the form Of brine
are used in the manufacture of soda
ash. caustic soda and other salts. Salt
is cheap. The average price for 1903
was a little over % cents barrel,
which is lower than that reported In
any previous year. Dry salt, of course,
brings a higher price than brine. The
average price for dry salt last year
was 31.51 cents a barrel.

FIGHT AGAINST DISEASE.
Madison Milkmen Take Steps to Retaliate
for Drastic Measures for Bet
ter Milk.

MADISON, Wis, Jan. 15.-[Special.l
Madison will probably suffer from
milk famine, as result of the action of
the city council in passing an ordinance
providing for careful examination of
COWS, to prevent the spread of tubercu-
losis through the milk of unhealthy ami
mails.
AS consequence, farmers who supply
milk to- Madison dealers are planning a
boycott insisting that they cannot af-
ford to lose their cattle as a result of
what they consider drastic ordnance
and rather than take chances they will
not bring milk to the capital, declaring
that Madsonians can seek their supply
elsewhere.
Local milk dealers are using every eff
fort to block the proposed boycott, but
are thus far helpless. The farmers ap-
pear firm in their purpose. They further
declare that milk will be raised from &
to cents a quart, beginning February
l, and even if the dealers succeed in
stopping the boycott, it seems inevitable
that this raise in price will be made.
