On the heels of this gener ous offer the Poster Printers As sociation donated S2ooo00 worth of work upon paper to he printed for the campaign.
 The officers of the association say they have assurance that the rail roads and express companies will car ry free all the paper for the work and that the allied printing trades will be asked to do the printing free. Frank F.. Fitch, of Albany, N. Y., was the author of the resolution and President George l.. Chennel of the Billposters. left the chair to urge it's i passage.

Accident That BefeIl M. R. Lewis, Cot ton Belt Employe, Was Due to Conn., pany's Negligence, Says the Su- preme Court.

In affirming the verdict of a jury i'll gave NJ. R. Lewis $1, ,500 as damages for injuries received while at work for the Cotton Belt near Bearden, some months ago, Justice Battle, in the supreme court, says:
 .M k. Lewis sued the St Louis Southwestern Railway company for damages on account of injuries caused by the failure of it's servants to properly inspect its cars. The evidence showed that Lewis was en- ployed by the railway company as conductor on one of its gravel trains: that he had caused a line of ears to be moved to the steam shovel at the Rearden gravel pit, and was stepping from one Ct the cars to a step suS- pended under the sill on the side of the car, when the step gave way and a hernia in his left side, which has caused him much pain and suffering. The car on which the defective step was attached had been inspected by the company.s inspectors but short time previous to the injury. The evi dence was sufficient to warrant the jury in finding that these inspector. could, by the exercise of reasonabl care, have discoS ared the defect i, the step and thus prevented the in jury; and that they were guilty c negligence in failing to exercise sue care

FAMOUS LABOR SUIT
 FOR BIG DAMAGES.
How Trades Unions Masked Their
 Plays in Alleged Boycott.


 Hartford, Nov. 1S.-Testimony in the form of dispositions, presented for the purpose of showing how the trades unions masked their plays in the all legged boycott of the firm of D. D. Loewe & Go. of Danbury, was a fea- ture of today's trial of the famous la Dor suit in which 240 union matters in Gonnecticut are being sued for s24O,-
 In general. the evidence showed that after the fight against Loewe was be- gun, firms in various cities through out the country were approached by labor representatives and requested to stop selling the Loewe product. In many instances their appeals were successful. The head of one Philadel- phia firm testified that his business dealings with Loewe before the trou- ble amounted to $33, 900 annually. and that it dropped to $4.000 in 1903.
 A Chicago hat finisher told of a conference he had with President Moi fatt, of the hatters union, in which he was told that if he did not stop hand ling Loewe's hats the union labor would be taken away from his factory. The spirited reply made to this sugges- tion was composed of three words.
 On December z, 1908, the dispositions of a number of matters in Philadel- phia were taken. which the plaintiff said were of little value. In the deposition of M. E. Marsh, buyer for the Gate City Hat company of Omaha, Neb., Marsh said that delegates of local unions called on him, saying Loewe was non-union and that they were going to boycott all non-union firms. The cigarmakers also sent a man from Denver with a similar mes sage from President Moffatt of the United Hatters. The case will be con- tinued tomorrow

ISN'T IT STRANGE :?

ELIoT's RELIGION
But Copy of Reformed Jewish Belief,
 Says Rabbi.


 That the much advertised new relig- ion of Dr. Charles w Eliot, formerly president of Harvard university, is nothing more or less than an ada pta- tion of the creed of the reformed Jew ish church. was the interesting state ment made Sunday morning at the Orange street temple, New Haven. by Rev. Dr. HiEschberg of Milwaukee, one of the most distinguished rabbis of the country. Dr. Hirschberg took up the Eliot creed as set forth in a recent publication, and categorically pointed out it's similarity to that of the ad- yanced Jewish church.
 Dr. Hirschberg branded the veteran Harvard mans religion as a mere. copy of which the author was probably ig- norant of his own religion.
 He compared Dr. Eliot's views up- on the future life with those of the Jews and showed the remarkable sim ilarity. He pointed out how Dr. FL iot's repudiation of the personal devil is the same as that of the Jewish church. In both Dr. Eliot's and the Jewish religion the existence of a place of torment after death is dis puted.
 Another point of similarity pointed out by Dr. Hirschberg was the disbe- lief of the Bible and the writings of the ancients. Dr. Eliot's views coin eide with those of the members of the Jewish church in that the Bible is lit- tie more than a collection of tradi- tions.
 In both religions the miracles are repudiated. stated Dr. Hirschberg and throughout his creed in all but minor details Dr. Eliot practically copied the reformed Jewish religion

Uniform Code Of Demurrage Rules
Adopted by Railway Comn,isso Applicable Alike
 to State and Interstate Transportation.

Washington, Nov. 18.--Despite oppo- sition to the ''forty-eight hour free time rule" and the failure to embody "a reciprocal demurrage rule,' the Na- tional Association of Railway Commis- sioners in convGntion yesterday adopt ed a uniform code of demurrage rules to be applicable alike to state and ln- terstate transportation. This code was incorporated in q report of commit te, headed by Commissioner Lane of the interstate commerce commission.
 The object of the association in iDl- proving the code was to facilitate its actual application to all transporta- tion on the ground that demurrage rules, loosely drawn and laxly enforced, constitute one of the last strongholds of those who seek to render the law against discrimination impotent.
 The fight against the adoption of the code was led by O. F. Gothlin of Ohio. who with William F. Rhea of Virginia and John A. Webb of Mississippi. mi- nority members of the special commit tee. had prepared a number of amend ments.
 3 Instead of advising allowance of only forty-eight hours free time for load ing or unloading cars with all com modities. as reported by the majority of the special committee, the three minority members reported in favor of seventy-t two hours on cars contain ing naore than 66OO0 pounds. Their recommendation was defeated by a votefof 2 to 1.
 h the debate which consumed all the afternoon except for a brief period spent in calling on President Taft, w. P Hall, chairman of the Massachusetts commission said that the custom throughout the six New England states was to allow ninety-six hours free time, and he asked that the association go slowly in recommending forty eight hours only. To this Commissioner Lane said that while Mir. Hall was a member of the committee which draft ed the. report he never attended a meeting

 The majority of the committee re- ported that it considered the question of reciprocal deinurrage" of fines against railroads for failure to deliver cars after they were ordered did not come within it's province. The minor ity members took the opposite view, but the association upheld the ma jerity. The report of the committee, including the code, was adopted by a vote of 35 to 15.
 Protest Against Uniform Demurrage
 Code.
 Washington, Nov. 1S.-The feeling of resentment by some state railroad commissioners against what they term the wish of the interstate commerce commission to hog all the supervis- ion over railroads, reached d climax al the convention of the National Asso- ciation of Railway Commissioners to- day. when the convention was asked tc approce the Esch bill of the last con- gross to empower the interstate com mission to investigate all accidents or railroads engaged in interstate com merce.
 . Commissioner Earle of South Caro- lima led in the denunciation of the bill
 The discussion finally resulted ii Commissioner Clark of the interstate commerce commission and Commis- sioner Burr of Florida offering sug- gestion that the bill be approved. i amended so as to specify it was in nc way to interfere with the right Of tn, states. This course was pursued.
 When Secretary Moseley of the in. terstate commerce commission finished the report of special committee rec. ommending the approval of the Escl bill, Commissioner Earle said, shakins his finger at Mir. Mosely: "We hay, heard you ask for uniform classified. ton. uniform demurrage, uniform this and uniform that We are gettins tired of it. Are you going to talk, everything? I'll tell you right now. as a railroad commissioner of Soul Carolina, am not going to accept you uniform demurrage code"
 T don't care if you don't" retorteC MT. Mosely. Mir. Mosely subsequentl, explained that at present railroads ar, required to report on wrecks, and f is desired to have these reports nor, accurate and more in detail, with view of preventing the railroads iron lying about them. as 1t has been con, tended they sometimes do.
