CONTESTANTS WILL EAT
TO PROVE FOOD VALUES
Candidates Record Weights Near
Chicago and Prepare for
Novel Rivalry

CHICAGO, Nov. 11.-An eating con-
test began yesterday at Park Ridge, a
suburb, when the first candidates
weighed in" on the scales at the
Northwestern station, and it will con-
tinue for thirty years. During that
space of time eating in all it's forms
and ramifcations, from the best fat
tening methods to scientific dieting, will
be the main topic of conversation in
the suburb.
1t is a contest framed to work both
ways; the contestants may declare
their intentions whether to gain or lose
avoirdupois. The men who do their
best in their chosen parts will be de-
clared winners.
The contest, as far as the eating con-
test is concerned, is "for men only" but
the women are interested equally, for
there will be prizes for cooks and train
ers of the winners.
A $100 fireless cooker will go to the
wives or cooks or trainers of the two
winning candidates, and the winners
themselves will be presented with
smoking outfits. A condition of the
contest is that every contestant must
weigh in every Friday night, and so
have his gain or loss recorded.
One hundred and twenty-five men
were gathered in during the day. and
this number is expected to reach 250
when the weighing ends tomorrow
night

POLITICIANS ANTICIPATE
GENERAL ELECTION SOON
Party Activity Follows Failure Of
Constitutional Conference

LONDON, Nov. 11.-Following last
nights announcement of the failure Of
the constitutional conference, there
was the greatest activity at all the
party headquarters, where the decks
were being cleared for action in view
of the possibility of an almost imme-
diate general election.
The government stalwarts urged a
prompt appeal to the country on the
ground that the sooner they struck the
better would be the chances of over
whelming the opposition, but Premier
Asquith is believed to be in favor of
quickly winding up the business of
the parliamentary session before plac-
ing the resignation of the cabinet in
the hands of the king. Much will be
dependent on the attitude of the Irish
and labor parties upon the reassem-
bling of parliament next Tuesday.
The stock market was weak today
as a consequence of the conference
failure.
Consols for money today sold off
half a point to rs ga, the previous low
record, on failure of the conference.
The home securities also were weak.

STILL BAFFLEO
BY INFANTILE PARALYSIS
Professor Tells Chicago PhySi-
clans Experts Have Learned
Nothing of Dread Disease

CHICAGO, Nov. 11.-"The medical
profession of the world is still handi-
capped before the seourge of infantile
paralysis"
This statement was made last night
at the meeting of the Chicago Neu-
rological society by DR.. II. E. Robert
son, assistant professor of pathology
in the University of Minnesota.
I'VE are up against it, said Dr.
Robertson. I'VE have not been able
to cultivate the germs in laboratories.
We cannot learn anything from anal
ysis. We cannot even diagnose the
disease before the first certain symp-
tom, the paralysis of the patient, oc-
ours.
1.-THE disease attacks the strongest
and most active children. 1t is not
confined to infants. Many victims are
adults. The high fatality is caused by
reaching the acute stage in three or
four days. Up to that time the symp-
toms might indicate any infectious
malady. There are no definite symp-
toms and the first warning the prac-
titioner has is the paralysis of his pa
tient."

NAVAL OFFICERS WILL SEE
FLIGHT FROM WAR VESSEL
Trial to Be Made by Ely on Scout
Cruiser Birmingham

WASHINGTON, Nov. 1.-THE pro-
posed aeroplane flight by Eugene Ely
of San Francisco from the deck of a
naval vessel will be observed by the
navy departmnet as an unusual test OF
the value of the heaVier-than-air ma
chimes for usages of naval warfare.
This announcement was made today
at the navy department, together with
details of the proposed test. The point
which will be determined will be the
practicability of launching an airship
from a scout cruiser at sea.
The trial will be made on the scout
cruiser Birmingham by Ely in Curtiss
biplane. The machine will be placed
on the vessel in Hampton Roads and
taken up Chesapeake bay for quite a
distance, where the airship will be sent
away. The distance the cruiser will
be carried from shore has not been
determined.
The president previously has refused
permission to aviators for the use Of
naval vessels for airship tests but it
is said at the navy department that
this will be a government trial de-
signed to determine the war useful
ness of the airShip.

SAVINGS BANK DEPOSITS
SHOW INCREASE FOR YEAR
Report Says More Persons Have
Accounts for More Money

WASHINGTON, Nov. 11.-If the
prosperity of the nation can be reflect
ed in its savings bank deposits, the
year ended June 80 must have been a
banner one for the Amer can people.
The high cost of living does not ap-
pear to have diminished savings, ac-
cording to figures compiled in the treas
try department.
Deposits in 1859 savings banks during
the year increased to more than four
billion dollars. The average deposit
or's account was $445.22, just $24.77
above the average of the year before
There are 100000 more savings bank
depositors than there were year ago,
and the total of deposits has swelled
S257, ,000,0 900 during the year.
Capital employed by banks of all
classes in the United States increased
$50, 900 during the year. Individual
deposits in the banks increased more
than $2,24O, 100000, and the aggregate
assets increased 1856, 100000
The banks, however, are holding
about $31, 100000 less in cash than they
did in 1909.

France and Italy and resumed nego-

is held here, cannot fail to affect ad-
versely the commercial relations be-
tween Portugal and the United States.

Ends Own Life

MAYOR GAYNOR's STATEMENT

When the decision OF the Jersey lily
men became known to the brotherhood
officials, General Organizer Ashton
called on Mayor Gaynor. At the end
of the conference Mr.. Ashton had moth
ing to say, but Mayor Gaynor ex-
pressed himself succinctly.
"They can reject the agreement If
they want to-" he said, but l beg
to say that a man of their own selec-
ton came to me voluntarily, at no re-
quest of mine, and made the honorable
agreement. If the men reject that
agreement 1 shall teach them that eX-
press wagons can be run without their
help, even if we have to man every
one of them with policemen"
Judge Coke in the United States cir
cult court decided today that all ex-
press wagons may be run in this city
under conditions that have hitherto OBJ
tained-that is, without municipal IL
censes-until the status of driver IN
charge of interstate express matter
with reference to a municipal ordln-
ance has been fixed. A further hear
ing will be held next Friday.
There was little violence in the
streets today.
Ashton issued a statement tonight,
in part as follows:
1.-THE consensus of opinion was pro-
nounced that the terms were so vague
and meaningless tnat the proposition
was rejected in Jersey City, even ap-
preciating the kindly influence of the
mayor. Read between the lines and
no proof or assurance of men not being
Disseminated against for affiliating
with our teamsters' organization will
be found.
Until some proposition definite and
specific is offered the express drivers
strike will continue, and any man who
goes back to work will be considered a
strike breaker and expelled from the
teamsters' union"

NEW YORK, Nov. 1.-THE striking
express drivers and helpers of Jersey
City nullifed this afternoon the agree
ment reached early this morning be-
tween the New York strikers and the
five express companies. That agree
ment was conditional upon the consent
of the Jersey City men to return to
work. They have refused.
The situation now is as 1t was be-
fore Mayor Gaynor took a hand-with
this exception, that the mayor is angry
and resolved to temporize no more.
Some of the drivers and helpers who
believed the Jersey City men would
ratify the agreement were on their
wagons today, but If the international
brotherhood of Teamsters makes good
it's word they will all be called out
again.
The chauffeurs are fighting their own
battle and it promises to be bitter. Five
hundred cab drivers went out to aid
them today and they declare they will
never go back until the union is rec
ognized.
