SIOUX CITY CREAMERY SUES
Finds Its Business Being Damaged by
Norfolk Companv

Sioux City Tribune: Damages of
$4,000 are asked by the Blue Valley
Creamery company for the alleged vic.
lation of a contract, from j. l.. Kudrlc.
whom the company claims has engaged
in similar business at Norfolk, and
is taking its trade. The suit was filed
In the district court, and an injunction
is asked restraining the defendant
from continuing in the buying and sell
ling of butter, milk and eggs.
The petition recites that a contract
was signed between the plaintiff and
defendant, whereby the latter agreed
not to enter into business within ra-
dius of 100 miles of Sioux City within
a period of five years. Kudrle organ
lied the company at Norfolk in May,
and charges are made that since that
time he has induced patrons of the
Blue Valley Creamery company to be-
come customers of his company.
Since the organization of the Sioux
City company in 1907, lucrative
trade has been built up within 100
miles of Sioux City. Kudrle was man
ager when the new company was
founded, and by his office became &C
| quainted with the customers and the
methods by which they were handled.
| He left the company last April and
| according to a contract it is said
| agreed not to engage in the same bus
mess within the territory reached by
the Blue Valley company. This CON
tract the petition recites, is being VIC
lated, and the company has suffered
$4,000 damage thereby.
The apparent object of the action
of the Sioux City company is to force
Mr.. Kudrle to resign as manager of
the Norfolk Butter company.
The suit is accepted locally as
merely indicating the success which
is attending this new Norfolk institu-
ton. The Norfolk company is estab-
fishing itself firmly in this section and
| is of course encrOaching not only on
the territory of the Sioux City com
pany but also on the big creameries
of Omaha and Lincoln. The Omaha
creameries have taken considerable
notice of the Norfolk organization and
one business man in Norfolk sug-
gested today that they might be back
of the action brought in Sioux City.
The Norfolk company has been ship
ping a car of butter east about every
ten days.

Washington.-The American battle
ship fleet Is to visit Japan. The de-
sire of the emperor of the island king
dom to play host to the fleet was laid
before Secretary Root on Thursday
by Baron Takahira, the Japanese en-
bassador. The invitation, which was
couched in most cordial terms, was
made the subject of extended consid-
Grafton by President Roosevelt and
his entire cabinet on Friday. Secre-
tary Root was directed to accept the
invitation, and the acceptance was
laid before the japanese ambassador.
1t Is regarded in official circles here
as more than likely that China Will
be next to bid for look at the fleet,
and that should this be the case, the
invitation will be accepted.
Secretary Metcalf and Admiral
Pillsbury, chief of navigation, are ar
ranging the details of the new itin-
erary. With the exception of China,
1t Is determined that all other invita-
tons, should any be received, will be
declined, for at the best the feet will
not be able to reach the Atlantic sea-
board before the first of next March.

washington-The navy department
has received word that the old war.
ship Monongahela had burned to the
waters edge at her station at Guam
tanamo bay. No lives were lost In
the destruction of the boat. She was
one of the old unserviceable wooden
vessels of the navy, having been con-
structed at Philadelphia during the
civil war. She was used as station
and store ship at Guantanamo. The
Monongahela took prominent part
in the operations on the Mississippi
during 1868, and at various times dur
ing that period was commanded by
the then Lieutenant George Dewey
and Lieutenant Winfield Scott Schley,
and was for a time Admiral Farra-
CUTS flagship. Following the civil
war, the Monongahela was used as
training ship for midshipmen and ap'
prentice seamen.

makers.

Washington.-Presi Roosevelt
has determined on legislative pro-
gram, the enactment Of which will be
urged upon congress in a special
message. Each of the measures to be
proposed involves perplexing difficult
ties. and each will have far-reaching
effects in business and economic con-
iitions of the country. The program
Is the product of important confer
onces, through which the president
has been put in possession of the
views of all interests concerned. Like
wise the attitude of the leaders in
both branches of congress has been
made known. Its success depends
upon the combined effort which he
believes can be brought to bear in be-
half of the whole plan by those at
fected especially by some one of Its
features.
The program includes:
A declaration in favor OF revision OF
the tariff in a special session to be
held after March 4, 1909.
An amendment to the Sherman anti
trust law so as to make important
concessions to combinations Of both
labor and capital.
Limiting the powers Of certain
courts in the use of the injunction
in labor disputes.
Passage of an employers liability
bill.
Passage of the Aldrich financial

CALLS JOURNALISTS SWINE.
Member Of German Reichstae Causes
Excitement During Debate.

Berlin.-There was an uproar In
the reichstag on Thursday. During
the debate on the colonial budget,
Herr Erzberger, centrist, made a
speech in which he referred to the
governments treatment of negoes in
the colonies and made use OF the
phrase: "A negro also has an !mmor-
tai soul" AS the speaker paused
after this remark, joking expressions
we're heard from the gallery, some OF
which appeared to come from the d.
vision set apart for the press. The
entire centrist party at once rose to
its feet in indignation, and Herr Broe-
Der, the center leader, pointed to the
journalistic tribune and shouted the
word Swine" The journalists are
very indignant and have voted to go
on strike unless an adequate apology
is made for the insult to the news
paper profession.
