and privileges not enjoyed by dealers
in Tennessee.
Action on the bill was indefinitely
postponed, which practically means its
Einish.

STOCK is WORTHLESS.
Toledo Railway and Terminal Cos.
Property Sold Under the Hammer.

Toledo, O.. May 2S.--Ghe Toledo Rail-
way and Terminal Cos. property was
sold under order OF federal court today
to Andrew J. Sullivan, chairman of the
bCndholders committee, at the upset
price of 100000. No other bid was
made. Most of the $3,5G0,0GG of stock
is owned by J. Pierpont Morgan and
according to Mr.. Sullivan, the stock is
entirely wiped out and worthless.
Mr.. Sullivan said there are no agree
ments with any outsiders regarding the
disposition of the road although 1t is
said that the road will be sold CIR leased
in steam reads entering Toledo and
used by theri on the cooperative plan.
The property consists of a belt road
which circles the city with a passenger
and freight station centrally located.
Mr.. Sullivan said if Mr.. Morgan
should purchase the road from the
bonders he could probably make the
stock good Mr.. Sullivan said it would
take $3,S0O1O0 to buy the property in
order to reimburse the bondholders.
All but $4,000 of the $3,500,C00 ter
minal bonds have been deposited with
the committee.
The road was built by st. Louis and
Toledo capitalists and later became a
part Of the Great Central system.
Then Morgan got it when he took the
Cincinnati Hamilton & Dayton road
back from the Erie system. Later the
bonds were allowed to go to default
and Judson Harmon was appointed re-
ceiVer.

COMMISSION MEN SCORE.
Big Chicago Packers Buy New "Cow
Stuff" on Monday.

Chicago, May 2S.-Because of the en-
forcement by the big packers of their
new rule requiring post norton inspec-
ton of the cows and heiferS as con-
dition of purchase, only the high class
grades Of beef were sold at the stock
yards yesterday for the Chicago trade.
1t was the first day of the enforce
ment of the post norton rule and the
first skirmish between the packers and
the shippers of livestock and the COM
mission men. The big packing firms did
not succeed in buying solitary cow or
heifer. according to the returns made
to the commission men at the close of
business. None of the 5000 animals
numbered in the list of the days re-
ceipts as "cow stuff remained unsold
however, all being sent to other cities
and on this showing the commission
mon insisted that the big firms were
routed i'll the first skirmish. The sales
however, were at prices from 10 to q
per cent. below the range of prices al
the close of last weeks market.
Causes that contributed to the sue
cess of the commission men in their eff
forts to sell out everything were the
cooperation of the shippers in the
country and the demands of the ''inde.
pendent" trade. Renewed appeals to the
country buyers and shippers to "keer
their cows and heifers" out Of the Chi
cago market for the present, were sent
out over the wires

BookBINDERS STRIKE.
Two Hundred Employees At HoIyoke,
Mass, Quit Work.

Holyoke, Mass, May 2S.-Owing to
difficulties with the management of the
company, 200 employees of the National
Blank Book Co. are out on strike. The
binders employed at the factory make
the claim that when one of the depart
ments refused to do Il certain piece OF
work for the price named they were
told no other work would be given
them until the first work was done,
this, in the opinion Of the binders,
causing q lockout.
The Bookbinders' Union took up the
matter and asked for a conference with
the management of the company, but
the management refused to treat with
the union. although expressing will
ingnesS to confer with the employees
as individuals.
1t is feared that unless the difficulty
is settled soon the entire plant may
have to cease operations as the other
departments are dependent in great
measure on the work of the binders.

ARMAMENT RESTRICTION.
Japan Will Support It If Question Is
Introduced At The Haque.

Victoria, B. c., May 2S-Japanese news
papers received by the steamer Empress
of India, from Yokohama, contain an in
terview with Count Okauma, one of
Japan's most prominent statesmen, re-
garding The Hague peace conference, in
which ne says:
IF Great Britain introduces an arna-
ment restriction proposal for debate
Japan will support it and possibly the
United States also. 1t would be difficult
to speculate, though, upon the probable
attitude of the European powers upon the
proposal. With regard to the regulation
of military and naval battles, rights and
duties of neutrals, regulations of wire
less telegraphy and contraband of war,
Japan and Russia had a claim to advance
their views in view Of their practical ex-
perience. AS far as Japan is concerned
the conference affords the best oppcrtuni-
ty of promoting her position in interna-
tional politics.

AGAINST Uniform of the Navy-At
jamestown This Time.

Washington, May 2S.-Discrimination
against the blue jacket uniform of the
navy at the dancing pavilion of the Pine
Beach Amusement park, resort adjacent
to the jamestown Exposition, has led
Sec Metcalf to vigorous action.

partment by Lieutenant J. V. Babcock,
commanding the U. S. S. TruXton. on

the position taken by Secretary Metcalf
in the matter is given by him in the fol
lowing letter to Governor Swanson Of
Virginia, dated March %:
THE commanding officer of the TruXton
states that the dancing pavilion of Pine
Beach park refuses admittance to men III
blue Jacket uniforms and at the same
time grant unqualified admittance to SOL
diers in uniform. On receipt or conf
plants from well-behaved and self-re-
specting men of the vessels first class
petty officer was instructed to apply 1or
admittance and If refused to see the man
ager and ask reasons for such action.
Such direction being carried out, ). Il.
Lane gunner's mate of the first class,
was refused admission to the dancing pa
yi,ion. the manager stating that under no
circumstances would men in blue jacket
uniform be admitted; that the men were
not objected to but their uniform was
and if they wished to go in and dance
other clothes would be furnished them.
REQUEST was made to see the other
clothes mentioned, and the petty ofnceS
was shown a dressing room where a stock
of white clothes were kept, very much
similar to the regulation mess attendant
uniform. -.
"As the ravy is doing everything IN It's

of apparent discrimination against the

able to participate in generous requests
owing to the UNCONVENTIONAL clause in
