BETHEL.

The Bethel mills. operated by A. y.
Washburn & Co., have sawed out about
350"D feet Of lumber in the last SIX
weeks. Fisher tanncry is giving employ
ment full time, six days IN IA week, to
one hundred men, with an average week
~ pay roll of 3l,l0o Seven hundred and
fifty sides Of leather are turned out
daily. three -fourths Of which are finished
here into mat leather. The large increase
in the Central Vermont railway business
at this station has made it necessary to
Increase the trackage. A survey has re-
Vealed the fact that some of the build
ines are located partially on railroad
land. The lumber sheds are said To be
entirely on land owned by the road and
the owners of the sheds have been notl-
fled that they must be removed.

Special Correspondence to The Press
CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-When the
shadow of death fell upon the dis
ease ridden body Of Col. William F.
Tucker, in Army and Navy hospital,
Hot Springs, Ark, his wife, daugh-
ter of Gen. John A. Logan, with
drew a complaint upon which the
dying man had been arrested, and
thus ends another chapter OF an
amazing story.
For years Colonel Tucker. chief
paymaster of the department of the
lakes, has been at war with his
wife. The friends of the distin-
guished couple were dumbfounded
when, two years ago, Mrs. Tucker
petitioned Secretary of War Taft
to order a curt martial for Colonel
Tucker on charges of conduct I'M
becoming an officer and gentle
man. She charged infidelity. Taft
Investigated and exonerated
Tucker.
Mrs. Tucker, however, has con-
tinued to fight her husband. Two
months ago the colonel fell i'll in
this city and went to Mount Glenn
ems in search of health. Mrs. Myrtle
Plat, an army nurse, who met
Colonel Tucker In the Philippines,
has been much in his company for

two years, the wife claims.
Recently Mrs. Tucker decided
that she must be eXonerated and
she applied for warrant for Tuck
er's arrest, charging desertion. The
warrant was served upon him at ST.
Louis, where he was lying very i'll
and being cared for by Mrs. Plat,
her brother and Filipino servant.
The deputy who served the warrant
refused to bring the prisoner to
Chicago, declaring that the trip
would prove fatal. and 81 did not
want to have that mans death on
my conscience"
Mrs. Tucker and her mother,
Mrs. John A. Logan, still insisted
that the colonel be locked up until
physicians affidavit, declaring
the colonels condition fatal, was
produced. Then they relented and
the charge was withdrawn.
Colonel Tucker, now at Hot
Springs, is, according to his friends,
making a desperate fight for life
that he may justify himself before
the world" Should he recover. Mrs.
Tucker says she will demand his
arrest.
Thus strangely does death and
domestic tragedy buffet two hearts
torn in hate and vengeance.

IN THE LABOR
MOVEMENT
BY PETER, POWERS

There is great interest in the or
ganized labor world in the forthi
coming general election among the
miners, who are numerically the
strongest, organization on the
North American continent.
President Thomas L. Lewis OF
Ohio will be opposed by John Walk
er of Illinois, warm friend of
John Mitchell, who has been presi-
dent of the miners up to the pres
ent year, when Lewis won over
Mitchell's candidate, Congressman
w. B. Wilson. by a narrow margin.
Last year Lewis received the al
most solid support of the radicals
In the United Mine Workers, and
the election demonstrated the fact
that the radicals held the balance
of power between the Mitchell and
Lewis forces in the big union.
Walker is himself a radical, and
yet will probably have the support
of the Mitchell followers. Lewis has
also somewhat weakened his
chances by becoming entangled in
a controversy with the Indiana
miners, and President Van Horn of
the Hoosier state will add interest
to the fight by being candidate
for vice president or secretary
treasurer.
AS was predicted in this paper
several weeks ago. Alabama miners
are emigrating to other sections of
the country in great numbers. The
southern refugees claim that, with
their union defeated by combina-
ton of the Alabama state govern
ment and the United States steel
corporation, their lot has become
unbearable and that they are being
treated as little better than slaves.
AS if the American Federation
of Labor hasn't enough troubles in
being buffeted by the angry waves
of politics, now the executive coun-
Gil of the federation has issued a
circular letter to state and city
central bodies. commanding them
to exclude all unions of the Amer
lean Flint Glass Workers, on the
ground that the latter are en-
croaching upon the rights and do
ing the work of the green bottle
blowers union.
During the past few days the
Indiana State Federation and the
Ohio State Federation, as we'll as
a number of city central organiza-
tions, have defied the mandates of
the A. F. of l.. executive council.
The Indiana federation elected a
flint" vice president, and the
Ohio federation chose General

Chicago Grain Market.
CHICAGO, Oct. 20.-There Is
strong hint of change of feeling
in the foreign trade in the cable
this morning, which is higher, fol
lowing the break of yesterday and
the strength is based on confirmed
reports of frost damage in the
southern provinces of Argentina.
These features were Offset by re-
ports of larger Russian shipments
and free offerings of new wheat.
Unfavorable weather or indiffer-
ence on the part of corn raisers to
sell at present prices may easily
bring about light movement and
a strong speculative situation when
least expected. There has been a
great deal of talk of an early move
ment of new corn from the new
crop, but this has to be demon
strated as yet

MARRIED MEN
BEST BEHAVED

BUT Wl0OWERS DON'T GET
INTO TROUBLE AT ALL, AND
sWEDES ARE UNLUCKiER
THAN THE IRISH.
1t has always been held that the
Irish are the most extemporaneous
class In the city. But Bill Lewis,
keeper. Of the police department
records, takes exception and has
the figures that the Irish are not,
and that the Swedes are. (Bilrs
Irish, by the way.) When this
statement was challenged by half
the officers of the force this morn
ing, Lewis dug up the records Of
the past month and showed that
his claim was true-true by only
one arrest, however. During the
month 26 Swedes were hailed be-
fore the bar Of justice against rs
Irishmen.
The most unlucky class figured
on occupation, aside from the gen.
eral labOrers, are the cooks, rs of
whom were arrested on one charge
or another. Associates of the
cooks. walters, come next with Is
arrests Then follows merchants
II, farmers 10, clerks II, bartend-
ers ~, transfers 10, soldiers 8,
carpenters 7. Those who gave &C.

cludes all occupations not regard

Der 143.
Bill Lewis advice to the unruly
men is 'get married." for Of the
total of 400 men arrested only "
were married Taking Bills fig
ures as basis for argument, it
would be still better to be vivid
over" for not one widower was
arrested during the entire month.
Sixty-three women were arrest
ed, too, bringing the total males
and females locked up during the
month to 1853. From 81 to 80 years
of age is the time when the man
is more unruly than any other time
In his career. Between those ages
there were 1877 arrested; 30 to 40,
1876; GO to 20, 5. Only 80 were
unable to read or write. Thirty-four
