 similar strike of brewery workers took place in East St. Louis. III, this afternoon. two breweries being affect. ed and forty men walked out The demands for increased wages were first presented by the brewery workers about ten days ago and a cons ference with the boss brewers waa
 held. but no agreement was reached.
 second conference was arranged for
 last night at which the boss brewers offered to compromise on a general per cent. increase.
 The workers demanded a sliding scale increase of from to so per cent,
 and upon rejection of their demands
 the strike was called this afternoon :.
 The boss brewers learned of the de- | StoAOA OL lHo brewery WOTk6TS 10 strike and hurriedly called a meeting this l morning to effect a means of forestaII- ing the impending strike.
 After a brief conference they decided to offer fiat advance to all empIoyeS | of sf a week in wages This offef was quickly conveyed to the represent.
 atives of the workers, but not in time to prevent the walkout.
 Soon after noon the workers began | to walk out from breweries all over the city. The brewers and maisters
 were the first to quit work, but the
 demands affect all employees, including
 drivers. cellar men, wash house men,
 engineers, firemen, oilers and bottlers. It is estimated that the strike will | involve loss In material to the brews cries. if 1t continues for any length of time. of more than $100,O00. The to- tai increase in wages demanded Is esq timated at s500.O00 q year. The bosa
 brewers state that they hope their ofs
 fer of a flat increase of $1 a week will
 be considered by the workers, nots
 withstanding the strike and that it will
 lead to some proposition under which
 the dtfnculties may be taken up foS arbitration and the complete closing
 or the brewing plants prevented. There are but two breweries in Easf
 St. Louis. Twenty-Five workers walks

the stick except Connors. who is show ing up in great shape both in his feld- ing and at the bat. The team may De a winner this season--and 1t may be punk--but this knocking should be cut out for few weeks anyway. The chronic kickers have six months ahead of them in which to do their growing and it won't harm them to hold up a while.
 From the looks of things now. the only serious trouble will be in regard to the grounds which are very uneven i. There is a difference of several inches in height between the pitchers box and the home plate, while at third base is dip enough to almost form a small lake on wet weather. =
 It looks as though the fans will have to resign themselves to the loca- ton of the bieachers and the walk from the car line to the entrance.
 At the meeting of the Cotton states League in Mobile today the schedule will probably be adopted. They have been trying for some time to. get schedule, $100 being offered for the most satisfactory one.

QUARREL DENIED.
Gridiron Club Makes Haste to Deny a
Morning Paper Story.

Washington, Jan. 2s.-The executive
committee of the Gridiron club today Is
misleading an article printed in several
newspapers this morning which carried
the clubs dinner on Saturday night, In a
running comment on the features of the
dinner, said:
Senator Foraker quoted the line also and
added, And all other persons look alike
to me-"
The committees statement continues
What happened was that President
Roosevelt read from the CLUBS Joke book
which appeared under cartoon. Senat-
tor Foraker quoted it and then added,
And all white persons look alike to me
Also and went on with his speech"
The committee says:
at is ar invariable rule of the club
that no reports of the speeches of It's
guests shall be printed and it places It's
guests On honor in that regard. The story
was represented at the dinner.

SUES ON BARNES POLICY.
Sons Bring an Action Against Mod
ern Woodmen.

H e. Barnes and his brothers, E. R
and F. E., filed suit in the district court
this morning against the Modern Wood
; men Of America, an insurance order for
81, coo life insurance, a policy carried by
; their father, Samuel Barnes, who died
on the 10th of December. The petition
( states that the policy was issued on the
18th day of the preceding September
but an nvestigation shows that the po-
hey wos written in 1890 or over Is years
ago but that the beneficiary was chang
ed at the time the petition states the
policy was written.
Mr.. Barnes had been sick for a num-
Der of years before his death and pro-
baby would not have been considered
three months before his death. In speak
ing of the allegations in the petition
M. W. Saxon, clerk of Modern Wood
men camp. number 536 said: The policy
for the payment of which suit was filed
this morning was issued over 16 years
ago and it Is but fair to presume that
at that time Mr.. Barnes was in a fit
physical condition to pass an examina-
ton for insurance in any old line COM
pany. While the petition filed indi-
Gates that the policy was issued but
three months before his death it was
simply renewal of an old policy which
was issued Is years ago and one on
which the insured desired to change the
beneficiary.
The Modern woodmen lodge does not
deny its liability and is willing to pay
the face of the policy $4,000 into the
court, but by refusing to pay 1T to the
beneficiaries named, who are the three
sons of the deceased it is striving to
avoid litigation. Mr.. Barnes filed suit
for divorce shortly before his death in
which sensational charges of poisoning
were made aaginst his wife, and the
matter of the distribution of his pro-
perty is now In court and if this mat
ter were settled between the heirs
named and the Modern Woodmen, trou-
Bile would probably result between the
order and his wife who is claiming a
share in the property"

JOHNSON MET DEFEAT.
Topeka Heavy Weight Negro Pugilist
Knocked Out in Philadelphia.

News has been received in Topeka
of prize fight before the Broadway
Athletic club of Philadelphia last
Friday night in which Jack" john
son, the Topeka colored heavy weight
and baseball player, and Morris Har-
ris, a colored heavy weight of Phila-
delphia, were the participants. The
result was a clean knockout for Harris
in the second round. Johnson lasted
through the first round but came into
the second round in a groggy condi-
ton and after about a minute of fight
ing Harris landed on him with a
heavy punch which sent Johnson to
the floor and caused HIM to take the
count.
Johnson will be remembered as the
heavy weight who won from Jim Nc
Cormick, a former sparring partner of
John L. Sullivan, in a match in To-
peka last winter. Previous to his en-
counter with Harris, Johnson had
never been defeated

FINE NEW BUILDING.
Catholics VIII Erect One to Cost
Twelve Thousand Dollars.

Plans for extensive improvements
on the property of the Church of the
Assumption at Eighth and Jackson
streets are being formulated. The old
stone building which has been used
for several years for the teachers who
teach in the Assumption Parochial
school will be torn down and a new
building erected upon the site. The
new building will also be used by the
sisters who teach at the school and
will be a much more expensive build
ing. The contract for the building has
not yet been let but will be in a few
days. AS soon as the contract is let
the work OF tearing down the old
building will commence. The building
will be completed by the first of July.
This new building will be one of the
handsomest residence buildings in the
city and will make a neat addition to
the already expensive holdings of the
Church of the Assumption.
Plans are also being discussed for
an addition to the church which will
extend this building to the rear of the
property on Eighth avenue. About
three years ago an addition to the
school was built.

Robert Stone Proposes Return OF
Obsolete Justice Courts.

Robert Stone this afternoon introduced
bill which has the effect of restoring
Shawnee county in mfsdemeanor cases.
This is done by repeating section of
the law creating the city court of To-
peka. The change is desired by the
temperance people who want the right
to bring liquor prosecutions in the JUS
tiee courts in Oakland and North To-
peka.
Mr. Stone also presented the appro-
priation bill for the Topeka industrial
institute 1t carries the following items

The house went into committee of the
whole with F. B. Wheeler of Crawford
in the chair.
The first bill taken up was the Potts
bill to prohibit the killing of quail.
Hendricks of Rawlins moved that
the committee recommend that the
enacting clause be stricken out.
Mr.. Potts said that he believed the
farmers of Kansas are in favor of pro-
tecting quail at all seasons of the year
Bird of Shawnee said that the pro-
posed law is too drastic: that is use
shooting of quail at all seasons of the
year.
Tannehin of Phillips county said
that the shooting of quail should be
stopped altogether, as the hunters al
most exterminate the quail in the
short open season now allowed.
The motion to strike out the enact
ing clause was carried by a decisive
majority and the quail bill died.
