Washington, Oct. 13.-A practical
ending TO the incident involving allie
cations of indiscreet conduct against
Charles r. Crane of Chicago, who
was recently appointed American
minister to China, came when Secre.
tary of State Knox virtually forced
Mr.. Crane out of the diplomatic ser
vice. Mr.. Knox asked Mr.. Crane to
tender his resignation, but the latter
declined to hand ii to Mr.. Knox and
instead notified President Taft by tel
egraph that 1t was at Mr.. Taft's dis
posal. Realizing how the laud lay,
Mr.. Crane sent his telegram to Presi-
dent Taft before he received a note
from Mr.. Knox saying that Mr..
Cranes resignation would be accept
ed. While technically Mr.. Crane is
still the American minister to China
President Taft's acceptance of his
resignation is expected at any mo-
ment.
In statement given to the press,
which was issued after Secretary
Knox had been in consultation with
Henry NJ. Hoyt. the counsellor of the
state department. and Fred w. Car
penter, secretary to the president,
Mr.. Knox indicated that the sole
cause for desiring to revoke Mr..
Cranes commission was that the lat
ter had been guilty of furnishing cer-
tain information to a Chicago news
paper in regard to the proposed atti.

its diplomatic dealings with China.

cites President Taft as having given
him authority to speak freely Of the
relations between China and the
United States. Mr.. Crane quoted the
president as saying. with reference
TO invitations received by Mr.. Crane

"do not miss any Of them and when
you go 10 one, insist on speaking
and let them have It red hot"
Mr. Crane also accuses Mr.. Knox

While denying that all the informa-

Crane declares that, in his judgment,
what he did say to the newspaper
correspondent was In accordance
with the spirit of the presidents
wishes that he should talk freely.

Guardsmen Not Permitted In Home.
coming Parade at Washington.


Washington, Oct. 13. - Organized
labor, representing many parts OF
this country, Canada and Cuba, paid
a notable tribute in this city to the
homecoming from Europe of Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor. The occasion
was featured by a monster parade,
followed later by big mass meeting
at Convention hall. Estimates of en-.
thusiasts as to the numbersof men
aud women who participated In the
parade ran as high as 10000.
An incident in connection with the
parade which occasioned consider
able comment was the action of Pres
fdent Gompers in refusing to allow a
company of the National Guard of
the District of Columbia TO partici-
pate. Although the Central Labor
union went on record in favor of the
guardsmen taking part in the cele-
bration, there was some opposition
on the ground. II is said, that the or
ganized militia of the country was
used only to shoot down strikers
and union men," II was thought that
the matter, however, was settled, but
protest was lodged with Secretary
Morrison against the action of the
Central Labor union lie immediate
ly communicated with Mr. Gompers,
and the latter directed that the
guardsmen should not parade.

TRADING STAMPS
A TRADE EVIL
Declares George E. Green of
Peoria in Address Before
Business Men.
is LIKENED TO FLYPAPER
State Secretary of the Retail Mer-
chants Says That Every Man
Who Gets i'm Is ''Stuck."

Trading stamps were characterized
as one of the worst trade evils by
George E. Green of Peoria, state sec
rotary of the Retail Merchants asso-
citation, in his address before the Rock
Island Business Mems association last
evening at Maths hall. He urged that
the association do all in its power TO
get rid of the practice of giving re-
bate stamps to the customer.
Mr.. Green declared that the trading
stamp system is not unlike the COM
mon flypaper The first fly sees the
nice. sweet, seductive surface, land
goes in. The second fly, seeing the
first on the paper, never stops to N
quireI about the first iy's condition,
but, assuming that if the first fly did
not like il, he would not be there, and
so he, too, goes on the paper. And
finally the paper is covered with flies
all of the flies are stuck.
The Illinois Retail Merchants asso-
cation has for years waged fight
against trading stamps as trade evil,
and according TO Mr.. Green there are
not many places in the state where
the leading firms use the stamps.
Mr.. Green gave figures tending to
show that the trading stamp is likely
TO prove simply a big item of cost
with no corresponding return to the

two profits, he failed to get even one
but finds himself money out instead.
There is now pending in the Illinois
legislature an act by which it is pro
posed to prohibit the manufacture and
distribution of stamps in the state
The legislative committee of the state
association is considering the measure
and may support it and urge it's pas
sage in the legislature. The associa
ton has repeatedly condemned gift
and premium schemes of all kinds.
Takes scripturaI Text.
Mr.. Green's talk dealt with the pur
poses of the organization he repre-.
sents, and he announced that he would
apply a ~scriptural text. Therefore
let us not become weary in we'll doing
for we shall reap IL we faint not. -
From the first part of the text he
drew the lesson of activity, and he
pointed out the necessity for active
support, of every member. The neces.
sity for a big purpose, and an un
selfish purpose, was the lesson he took
from the second part of his text, and
in this connection he took occasion tC
praise the high purpose of the Rock Is
land Industrial commission and of the
men back of it. Boost the city, make
the general conditions better, and YOU
