INDIANAPOLIS. Sept. Id. NJ.
Parry, ex-president or the National
Association of Manufacturers and a
prominent Republican and manufac-
turer of Indiana, in reply to letter
from John w. Kern. Democratic nom
inee for yice-presidenI, announced
himself as opposed TO the posting Of
so.rHifed prosperity pfacards III fac
tories In behalf OF Taft's election, and
against business scares" gotten up
for political effect.
In his reply. Mr.. Parry says:
1T is poor business judgment, on
the face OF 1t, TO post promise 10
run factory full time in the event
of any ones election, for there is a
chance, you know, that the promise
may have to be made good In the
face OF adverse business conditions.
Should the promise for any reason
not be made good the employer
would be guilty of bad faith with his
men, and II the employer does not
keep faith with his men he cannot
expect his men to keep faith with him
II no more sympathize with the
statement that Mr.. Bryan is the en-
envy OF industry than | do with the
statement that Mr.. Taft is the Great
ure of the trusts, and as for Mr..
Kerns possible election being a men
ace to business. 1t Is positively absurd.

try Is TO be congratulated that both
parties promise its readjustment

THEIR BAD CROOKS
ONLY PAIR OF BUNS

Alex Canuelle, No. 654 Beaubien-st..
and Theodore Katie. No. $40 Monroe
ave., young men doing business as the
United States detective agency, were
neatly taken In by two suspicious
looking characters who posed as
much-wanted crooks, but who turned
out to be only pair OF travelling ho'
hoes of the lowest type, according to
the police. The boy sleuths fell In
with the two men. who are known as
/ James Burns and Thomas Clark, alias
"foronto- Slim on Cadillac square
Sunday, and spotted the pair at once
as suspicious characters. To gain
their confidence the youths posed as
bicycle thieves and the suspected
crooks then laid bare a plot TO rob a
store In Trenton, in which the boys
were invited to join. Clark told OF
big quantity OF swag he had buried
about Ii miles east of Detroit and
that he was wanted all over the coun-
try for various crimes.
Carefully concealing their identity
the boys stuck with the pair until an
opportunity presented Itself TO tip or
to the police. The opportunity came
Monday night and on the boys tip,
Detectives High and Larkins. OF the
central bureau, placed Burns and
Clark under arrest. Then it developed
that they had simply been stringing
the youthful Hawkshaws, and AZ
neither were known TO the police ex-
cept as buns, they were released on
their promise TO get out of town on
the first freight When not hitting
the ties Burns and Clark make their
headnuarfers in Buffalo.
