Disappoints; Will Re-
sumo Soon.

Rail Mill No. 2. of the Illinois Steel
company, did not open up yesterday

however, say that this mill will posi-
lively open up next Monday and pos
sibly sooner. Blooming mill No. 1, will
also be among the mills to open up

consideration, the outlook so far is
very promising and the officials be-
lieve there is a possibility of the en-
tire plant running full force within the
next three months. Should this be the
case, it will bring joy to the hundreds
of ment that are now out of employ
ment in this city The Jackson Con-
struction company of Milwaukee, who
have been installing a new cooling ap-
paratus through the furnace depare-
ment, are about through with their
work and expect to pack stakes and
leave for the Wisconsin city the last

NEW BRAND MOTOR
CAR IN So. CHICAGO
G. Mellus Passes Through
City in Auto Of Own
Construction.
SAYS ITS THE BEST ONE MADE
This One Built for Raeing-Later
Win Manufacture Tourers
and Runabouts.

With his machine profusely decorated
with Los Angeles Examiner advertis-
ing, and the name of his car, Charles
Mellus, yesterday passed through
South Chicago on his way to New York
City, where he will demonstrate his
car before the automobile world there.
Mellus recently constructed the ma
chine in his machine shop in Los Ange-
les, and he believes that it is better
than any other car manufactured dur
ing the present time. The MelIus ma
chine, while only a twenty -four horse
power and weighing only 1920 pounds,
is capable of making speedy time and
carrying no little weight The ma
chine has a ball bearing motor alum
mum body, two complete ignition sys-
TENS, perfect spring suspension and
contains everything that has proven
modern in motor construction.
The machine which was in South Chi
cago is constructed on the racing or
der, but it is the intention of the
manufacturer to put out cars on the
runabout and touring car pattern.
While in the city the California man
stopped on Ninety-first street and
Commercial avenue, where his machine
was the object Of much interest to
those who care for motoring. Mr..
MeIlus was accompanied by his right
hand man, Thomas Caffery, who helped
him build the car. Several copies of
the Los Angeles Examiner, containing
accounts of the car and its owner, were
distributed to the bystanders.
Mellus left South Chicago for Vaipa-
raise, Ind, where he has friends.

The Mockino Bird.

OF song birds the hooking bird is
easily king. The skylark and night
ingale deserve all of the praise that
the poets have given them. They are
sweet songsters, indeed. but when it
comes to contest with the hooking
bird their famed laurels wither away.
In its variety, range volume and
sweetness. the song of the hooking
bird has no equal in the feathered
kingdom. To hear the falling song
OF the hooking bird on a moonlight
night in June is to hear that which
never yet came from throat of skylarE
or nightingale-N. Y. American.

IN EXPLANATION.

Al every election of inrnrtancc, for
many wears past, tie News" has been
criticized for partiality, generally by
extremists OF al rurucs,and the present
campaign which, Fortunately, IS almost
ever by this time, is no exception to
the general rule. though the complaints
have been fewer than on some former
+ occasions. We have heard some COM
plants, however, from both Republican
and Democratic friends
We therefore, take this occasion to
say that the News has endeavored
to5be perfectly fair 10 all parties in the
publishing of news items concerning
the campaign. Reference to the News
Tor the past few weeks will furnish ann
pie proof for this statement lIditorir
ally the t'Ncws'' has not taken sides in
the controversy between Democrats
aud Republicans; it has not sought 10
influence the opinion. one way or an
other. on any questions that divide the
national parties; II has not given any
advice as TO how TO vote or not to,
vote.
The News" has been criticized for
/ refusing 10 print certain campaign doc
nments, but there has been no partial
ity. or fayoritlsm. shown With regard -
this, All parties have been treated
alike,
The News has also baen criticized for
having given more space to Republican

trary Is, perhaps, the fact but if ii is
not, there is sufficient reason which
every Intelligent reader Will feadil,

campaign the Republicans have mad
