News of the Courts
CHANGE OF STREET NAME
BRINGS VIOLENT PROTEST
"Kalamazoo" Said to Be Far Better
and More Harmonious to Local
lty Than "Dozier"

Property owners living on Kalamazoo
street are up in arms because the board
of supervisors changed the name of
that thoroughfare to Dozier street sew
eral days ago. While Kalamazoo may
excite laughter, they say Dozier is
meaningless and don't even cause a
smile. Kalamazoo, at least. provokes
a second thought, and even though
that thought may be humorous, the
name has something to distinguish
those associated with IL.
kalamazoo is all right" said Mrs.
Sara NJ. Birdsall at the supervisors
meeting yesterday. IF you must
change the name we want it changed
to Lockwood avenue or Erie street"
Mrs. Birdsall added that the name
Dozier was inharmonious. She added
that the petition for the change was
signed by many residents to please a
man named Zimmerman and not with
any idea that it would be made. She
had with her a counter petition CON
tanning the names of nearly all those
living along the street. which the board
said would be considered later.

BLACKMAlL SINGERS

DETECTIVES TO BREAK UP
NEW SCHEME
Famous VocaIists Pay Money to Gang
to Receive Applause In Place
of SIbiIatlons-Ma anagers
Indignant

NEW YORK, Sept. 20-Detectives
have been retained to break up an or
ganization of men who are said to
have netted a considerable income
from grand opera singers, who prefer
applause to Kisses.
Rumors several seasons old that GER
tain opera singers employed persons
in the audience to applaud them were
given credence by the members of the
Metropolitan and Manhattan opera
houses, when they declared that such
singers had been the victims of black
mail and that whatever money they
had given was more to prevent being
Kissed than to obtain applause.
According to several we'll known
singers they have been approached by
members of this band, who had plain
ly informed them that unless they paid
for applause their singing would be
met with Kisses.
Experience showed that those who
did not pay We're hissed. The managers
declare they will break up the practice.

Presidents Letter.

The following letter from Presi-
dent Taft was read:
My dear Sir:
II greatly regret that am unable
10 attend the coming National Peace
congress at Chicago and there to ex-
press my earnest sympathy with the
object of the assembling OF so many
distinguished men in the interest OF
world peace. That progress has been
made in the matter OF peace every
where by international action and by
the moral pressure OF the peoples OF
the earth. anyone who has examined
the record must admit. IL II true
that ornaments go on increasing in
cost. but IL Is also true that the bur-
dens presented by this competition
in armament are growing heavier
and heavier. and the problems for
solution consistent with their In
crease become more and more Diff
cult. The possibilities OF war now
arising come chiefly from irresponsi-
bilities of government. and In those
countries where stability OF internal
control is lacking. The United States
has contributed much TO the cause OF
peace by assisting countries weak In
respect to their internal government
so as to strengthen In them the
cause of law and order. This reln-
tionship OF guardian and ward as be-
tween nations and countries. in my
Judgment. helps along the cause OF
international peace and indicates
progress in civilization. The policy OF
the United States In avoiding war
under all circumstances except those
plainly inconsistent with honor or its
highest welfare has been made so
clear TO the world as hardly TO need
statement % my hands. ! can only
say that so far as my legitimate infiu
ence extends while at the head OF
this government. II win always be
exerted TO the full in favor OF peace.
not only as between this country and
other countries. but as between our
sister nations.

HEAVY DUTY
IMPOSED ON IMPORTS OF TO.
BACCO BY ENGLAND.
New Budget of British Government
May Have Marked Effect ON
Dark Tobacco Trade.

OF considerable interest to tobacco
dealers is the information from Liver
pool that the government budget pre-
scented to parliament proposes TO
raise the tax on tobacco imports from
"A to so cents per pound. This is
the heaviest tax ever imposed on to-
bacco imports by the English govern
ment. II comes at time when Eng
fish stocks are lower than they have
been for many years. The high prices
OF the past two or three years have
had a tendepcy TO hold down exports.
England takes about $4,000 hogs
heads a year. postly dark tobacco
II md 1onsensus OF opinion
among dealers that the big advance in
the English import tax will exert a
further depressing effect on the mar
ket OF dark tobacco, which has been
on the decline for several months, ow-
ing to the abnormal production last
year. II is felt that the tax will adj
vance the price to consumers 10 such
a point as to seriously curtail the con-
sumption.
About three years ago. the English
import duty, on stemmed tobacco was
advanced to such an extent as TO al
most wipe out the stemming business
in Kentucky. 1t became more adj
vantageous TO send to the English
markets unstemmed tobacco.
The object of the English govern
ment in raising the import duty is TO
help meet the deficit for the fiscal
year of over $4,000, 900 incurred
largely by the building of warships
and by the old age pension fund.
