MUST Be A REPUBLICAN |
Choosing a Successor to Pa
trOIman Hebb!e.
HARD TO GET GOOD MEN

Since the resignation of Harry Heb
bic the police department is shy POI
lice officer and applications for the po-
sition are now being received at police
headquarters. Hobbies successor
must be a Republican as there is now
one more Democrat on the force than
there are Republicans. Several appii-
cations for the vacancy were made to-
day but the new officer will not be
appointed until the police commission
ers hold their regular monthly meet
ing, the first Friday evening in April
Good Men Are Scarce.
There was formerly time when
there were more desirable men who
were applicants for places on the po-
lice force than there were places to
fill, but at the present time there has
been considerable difficulty in finding
the right kind of men for the force.
Salaries of police officers have re-
manned stationary for several years,
but on the other hand wages in other
fields of business have increased year
by year.
Three Men on Day Duty.
During the past twelve months
there have been several designations
by veteran members of the force who
have accepted positions which have
given them a better livelihood. 1t took
the commissioners considerable time
to fill these vacancies with suitable
men. Until another officer is APP
pointed there will be only three men
on day duty. Officers Winters, Vogel-
song and Lawler.

NO CHANGE IN J. A. CREIGHTON
DIR. Patrick of Chicago Sent for
to Consult with Local
Physicians.

The reports from the bedside of John
A. Creighton last night were not of ma
ture to give greater alarm than his con-
dition during the previous twentyfour
hours excited, but neither was there any
thing in them to increase the hope for the
patients recovery. The case seems now to
rest upon the question whether he can Sc
cure the proper natural rest and sleep. II
he can, 1t is said, his chances for recovery
will be excellent.
Mr.. Creighton has been resting --nll for
the last few nights, but the r. .Nation
and sleep have not been natural. with the
aid of anaesthetics he was again resting
quietly and asleep early this morning.
There is an added determination on the
part of the family and other relatives to
put forth greater efforts and leave no stone
unturned which might better Mr.. Creigh-
toms condition. This afternoon DR.. Pat
rick, the noted specialist of Chicago, will
arrive and examine the patient, making
whatever suggestions he may deem ex-
pedient. He will act In conjunction with
the local physicians In the case. The sum
moning Of DR.. Patrick was done as the
result OF a conference between relatives
and the physicians. when It was decided
to call into conference some doctor of note
and experience In other cities.

MAY TIE UP PACKING PLANTS
Labor Organizations Decide to Again
Demand Recognition from
Meat Kings.

CHICAGO. Jan. 2a-The labor unions
have decided again to demand recognition
from the meat packers and unless the pack
ers make concessions the workmen declare
they will go on strike TO bring the em-
ployers TO terms. AS entering wedge.
II was announced tonight that demands
for nine-hour day and a minimum wage
scale of $3 are to be presented to the big
packing firms in Chicago and In all
branches throughout the west by the In
ternational Association OF Machinists.
Since the strike OF butcher workmen in
1904 the packers have made no arrange
ments with any Of the labor organizations.
Most OF the unions which went on strike
with the butchers were disrupted. The
officers OF the machinists union now assert
that they are in position to call out
every one OF the 800 skilled mechanics en-
ployed by the packers.
The movement was started by the In
ternational organization and local officials
in St. Joseph. Kansas City. East St. Louis.
Omaha and Sioux City have been notified
to hold themselves in readiness to call out
their men In their respective localities,

FACTS REGARDING VOLCANOES
Scotch Climber Gives Interesting Re-
suits of Observation of Erup-
tiOns of Earth.

GLASGOW, Jan. B-(Speclal)-w. Her
bert Garrison, F. r. G. s., who has climbed
volcanoes in all parts of the world and who
the other day paid flying visit to Edin-
burgh, has just been interviewed upon the
subject of volcanoes. Here are some OF
the conclusions which he has arrived at:
THE greatest noise on record was made
by the eruption of Krakatoa, in the Straits
Of Dunda, between Java and Sumatra, in
1883.
1T caused a cloud seventeen miles high.
TT was heard 1900 miles away.
"If It had taken place in Edinburgh It
could have been heard in New York, Con-
stantinople, St Petersburg Cairo and
Greenland.
THE velocity Of the explosion was three
times that of the Armstrong gun.
1T raised tidal waves 100 feet high that
invaded the land for five miles.
"It created dust finer than any rock can
be ground by man.
"'rhis dust was carried round the earth
for three years in the air.
1T caused air waves that encircled the
earth seven times.
~ 1T broke windows 100 miles distant.
'The volcanoes of the world form belt
OF fire around the globe and are rarely
more than 800 miles from the sea. In the
few exceptions to this rule the volcanoes
are near large sheets of inland water. This
tends to prove that the proximity Of the
water is one Of the main factors in the
cause Of the eruptions, and that It is the
percolation of the water through the sur
face of the earth that leads to volcanic
activity"

W. T. STEAD NOT PLEASED
Champion of Peace Says Program of
the Hague is Not Broad
Enough.

THE HAGUE, Jan. 26. Especial )-Mr.
w. T. Stead has issued a letter in connec-
ton with The Hague conference. He points
out that nearly forty powers, all Of the
nations of the world, will be represented,
as compared with twenty-six in 1893.
He complains that the official program
falls far short of the expectations of the
peoples represented and submits two sug-
gestions as TO the program for a league of
peace at the conference. The first is that
at The Hague the governments of the
world should formally undertake the active
propaganda of peace, of internationalism
and of the brotherhood OF the peoples. The
conference should recommend to the sigma
tory powers the creation by each of a
peace budget for the purpose OF carrying
en- this work the amount OF which should
bear small fractional proportion OF the
annual expenditure on the war budget The
second suggestion is that the conference
should make obligatory article viii Of The
Hague convention which advises before
drawing the sword disputants should place
their case in the hands of neutral friends,
who shall act as seconds or peacemakers.
who for a period not exceeding thirty days
shall act together with the object of avert
ing war
