L.. T. Cooper. whose theory that the human stomach is the cause of most i'll health and who created a furore in Chicago, St. Louis and other Vest ern cities. Is meeting with the same remarkable success with his. medicine throughout the East. Cooper has con vinced an immense number of people that his theory is sound and his medi- cine will do what he claims.
 Perhaps the most interesting fea- lures of the discussion this young man is causing are the statements made by responsible people who have taken his medicines and have become enthu- slastic converts to his beliefs.
 Among statements of this character, the following. by Mir. August Wittmer, io4s Rockwell Court, Chicago, Is char acteristic of the widespread faith in Cooper. which has grown up In conn parativeiy short time. MT.

Hen LAYS AT NIGHT
OTHER BIRDS STRIKE
HER cAckLEs KEEP OTHER
FOWLS AWAKE.

Tacoma, Wash, Jan. 23.-Tacoma
has a freak hen. She Is q nonunion
bird. according to other hens for she
works overtime. Her popularity Is
laying eggs at night,
The hen 10 owned by M. ]. La
.Vergne OF East Thitty-ifth street. He
bought her several weeks ago. At
first she absolutely refused to lay
eggs. but, as her shyness In her new
surroundings wore OF. she became
good and worked like the others.
La Vergne thought she was going to
prove one OF the best layers In his
flock. but several nights later the
family was awakened by an unusual
cackling. Thinking a thief was at
work. La Vergne rushed to the chick
en- houses but found no one, though
the hens were making q big noise.
The next morning an egg was found
In the new hens nest. The next night
the same performance was repeated.
This kept up q week, and always
there was a new egg in the hens nest.
She still is at 1t, and IS proving a
valuable layer. But all this Is play
ing havoc with the other hens. Loss
lot sleep has made them cranky and
they have gone on a strike. Eggs are
getting fewer in the La Vergne chick
en- house every day.

Police A'Iege That Shooting Was Re
suit Of Well Formed Plot 70 Muir
der Observation-Disclosures Claims He
Thought Intruder Was Burglar.

Philadelphia, Jan. 23.-The trial OF
Andrew Jackson Detsch for the kill
ing Of Harry Fprree, whom he shot
in a boarding house here on the night
of November 6. was commenced to-
day, a jury having been secured yes
terday.
Ferree occupied a second story
room in the house and Mr.. and Mrs.
Detsch, with an IS months old child,
used a third story apartment. Ferree
was shot down while standing in front
of the closed doorof the Detsch room.
When policemen reached the scene
Detseh and his wife were found In the
room, the husband holding a revolver.
Thought Him . Burglar.
Detsch said he mistook Ferree for a
burglar and shot through the bedroom
door. But in searching Ferree's room
the police found letters that had
passed between Ferree and Mrs.
Detsch and some suggestive photo
graphs. When the wife was confront
ed with them, she confessed that she
had been guilty OF misconduct with
Ferree and that her husband had
learned OF 1t the day before the shoot
ing. The authorities then charged
Detsch with murder, OF the theory
that he caused his wife to lure Ferree
to her room so that he could kill the
intruder.

building occupied BY the Arm Of J..
REGISTER & Sons, at the southeast
corner q Holiday and Saratoga

by q general one, calling out all the
apparatus IN the city. Then, because
of q high wind from the northwest,
the fire spread rapidly and IN an In
credibly short time the north wall OF
the building fell into the narrow Sara
toga street. =
"A four.story building in the rear,
occupied BY d. B. Reed & Sons Co.,
soon caught fire and burned fercely.

FIGHT OVER BUDGET
"outs" Wanted to censure the Gov.
eminent, But Could Not Quite
Make censure Go Throush-Discus-
sion is Intense.

Toxic, Jan. 23.-A motion to cen.
sure the government was defeated in
the lower house of the diet today, 177
votes to 1913. The debate on the mo-
ton lasted for three hours and q
half.
The debate turned entirely on the
budget, no mention being made OF
the emigration question or the gov.
ernment's policy thereon. An unus-
ual feature Of the vote tonight was a
combination Of the representatives OF
the ~progressives with the Daido club
and the Yuko-Wai party. This com
bination presented a determined ef.
fort upon the part of the ''outs' to
defeat the government and force the
resignation Of the cabinet.
Cabinet to Stay.
Their failure to effect this now In.
sures the cabinet remaining in power
and the passage Of the budget.
The opposition speakers in the de.
bate blamed the government for lack
OF foresight, while the constitutional.
lists held that the government was
unable to predict any extraordinary
conditions.
Marquis saionji, the premier, re.
peated in the house the speech he
had already made before the peers.

San Francisco. Jan. 23.-James
Treadwell Of the insolvent California
Safe Deposit & Trust company this
morning before Superior Judge Dunno
asked, through his attorney, former
District Attorney Byington. that the
indictments against him be dismissed
because the grand jurors who found,
the indictments were depositors In the

that q personal feeling entered into
their findings, and that they had 9
feeling OF malice toward the defend

situation by the court and the request
was denied. The court granted Tread

CONFERENCE UNLIKELY
Mine Owners Of Anthracite Il Btu
minous Belt Said to Oppose Wage
Scale Conference at This TINE.
Mitchell Presiding.

indianapolis, Jan. 23.-The conven-
ton of the United Mine Workers of
America took adjournment until to-
morrow. None of the committees
were ready to report. The delegates
were addressed by Miss Laura e.
Gregg Of Kansas, fraternal delegate
from the National Woman's Suffrage
association. The delegates endorsed
the movement by a rising vote.
President Mitchell announced that
the credentials committee would take
up this afternoon the claim of Pat
rick Dolan, former president Of the
Pittsburg district miners. to be adj
mitted as a delegate.
He has credentials from his local
union at Reading, Pa.
No Wage Scale.
It is considered probable that the
convention will not formulate a wage
scale until after it has been de-
termined whether the operators will
meet the miners in joint conference
on January 20. 1t is also considered
probable that a joint wage conference
way not follow the convention imme-
diately and possibly may not be held
in this city.
1t is said by prominent miners that
indications are that the operators are
in no hurry for a wage settlement
and are nov averse to the stimula-
ton to the market that would amend
uncertainty as to the future Of coal
production, in view Of the fact that
an open winter has cut down the de
mand for coal and the industrial de-
preston has reduced the consumption
of steam coal.

VI Ia Idle Rolling stock on Arneri-
can Railroads-Forces Have Been
Reduced.

New York, Jan. 23.-F1gures pre-.
pared for one Of the large railroad
companies, says the Tribune, show
that a week ago there we're 100000
idle freight cars in the United States
and about 5000 locomotives which
are laid up on account of the falling
on In trafic.
AS there are 100000 freight cars
IN the country, this would show that
ia per cent of all the cars owned by
railroads are stored on railroad tracks
waiting for loads. Figuring the value
of cars at $1,000 each and Of locomo-
tiyes at SIS, 900, the statement shows
that the railroads have $240,000,000
tied up In rolling stock for which
there Is no present use.
May Cut Wages.
1t is estimated that more than, 3d.
900 men less are needed than If all
these cars were In service. Many of
these men have been laid of-the
New York Central, for example, since
the beginning Of this month has laid
OFF enough to make a saving Of $780,
900 a year In addition to previous cut
ting down of its force-and many
others have been placed on short
time.
But fixed charges Of a railroad must
be met In dull times as well as In ac-
tive and maintenance must be provid-
ed for and in view Of all the facts, the
management Of all the railroads are
understood to be discussing the ques-
ton Of reducing wages, much disliked
but a necessary measure.
