MAY end BIG
LABOR WAR
Only One Condition Between
New York Leaders
In EXPRESS DRIVERS STRIKE.
AT AN EARLY HOUR TO-DAY 1T
APPEARED PROBABLE THAT
The BITTER CONTEST WOULD
SOON BE ovER-DEPENpEp ON
NEW JERSEY STRIKERS.

New York. Nov. 11.-Favorable
action by the New Jersey section of
the striking express company en-
ployees on a settlement agreement
was all that was wanting today to
bring the express strike to an end.
The terms of settlement agreed on
by the representatives of the strik-
ers and of the companies were endors-
ed early today by a meeting of ex-
press companys men in Manhattan,
called to consider a peace compact.
The only conditions were that the
strikers on the New Jersey side of
the Hudson river should endorse the
agreement which are essential with
fairness.
The initial hitch seemed unlikely to-
day, and men were expected to return
to work next Monday.
The settlement provides that the
express companies take back their
striking employees without discrimina-
ton against the men who belong to
the union and that conferences begin
at once between the employees and the
companies looking to an agreement
on wages and hours.
The old rates of pay will prevail
until Dec. /, when new terms agreed
upon shall take effect. The settle
ment between the express companies
and their men does not effect the en-
ployes of other concerns, who are
as a result of the sympathetic strike
movement.
More Drivers Quit
Five hundred hackmen employed by
four Of the big cab service companies
were called out today In support Of the
taxicab strikers. Some OF the men
formerly employed by the big express
companies and who have been out on
strike resumed their old positions to-
day. 1t was generally understood that
the men should return to work be-
tween this morning and Monday. ~

COUNTY OPTION
LOST in MINI.
WILL PROBABLY HAVE CONTROL
OF THE HOUSE BY A MAR
II ROW MARGIN.

Minneapolis. Mimi, Nov. 1.-THE
county optionists have lost the fight
for the new legislature. They still
claim the control of the house by a
narrow margin, bur admit that the SEN
ate is against them. The Anti Saloon
league now announces it's intention to
ask the legislature to submit the op-
ton law TO vote Of the people in
1912.
I'VE will certainly fight for the pas
sage of the law this winter" said p.
j. Youngdahl, superintendent of the
league. But If we are defeated on
that issue we will ask the legislature
to take the question out of politics by
submitting it TO a referendum vote at
the next election"
The anticipation organization. headed
by #. w. zollman Of st. Paul. claims
that the county option issue is dead
in Minnesota. The overwhelming de-
feat OF James Gray for governor and
the loss of both houses of the legisIa-
ture. says Mr. Zollman, can only
mean that the people do not want
county option and that the cause is on
the down grade.
Lost the Senate.
c. w. Stark, at Anti Saloon head
quarters. today admitted the loss of
the senate. sclaiming only 20 votes
there out of So, but says that of the
40 house members they win have So
and perhaps more. I'VE have elected
81 house members who were publicly
endorsed" said Stark, and in addition
there are IL and perhaps Ia elected
who will vote with us. but we are not
in a position yet to give names"
The Minnesota legislature shows
slight gains for the minority parties
over the last session, but the repubr-
cans Will have 131 members out OF 1873
on Joint ballot for the election of
the United States senator, assuring the
reelection OF Senator Moses e. Clapp.
Several democrats are also pledged TO
him. The republicans also retain a
two thirds majority in each house.
They have lost two members of the
senate one to the democrats and one
to the prohibitionists. and six mem
bers of the house. The democrats gain
four house members, the prohibitions
lists one and the socialists break into
the legislature for the first time with
a member from Two Harbors.

Look After This Branch

P. c. MacFarIane of Kansas City,

100 men of the congregation of the
Christian churches of the tri-cities last
evening at Memorial Christian church.
Fifteenth street and Third avenue at

by the ladies of the church. Mr.. Mac
Farlane spoke briefly on the subject.
Aims of the Brotherhood" in which
he explained the work of the Organiza-
ton. The remainder of the hour was
spent in transacting business.
Several important matters were TAX
en- under consideration. City evangeli-
zation of the tri-cities will be taken up
by the brotherhood. Some leading
evangelist of the Christian church will
be engaged to conduct revival services
in the Christian churches of the tri-
cities next summer or fall. City mis-
sions will be established at several
places in each of the cities and a city
evangelist will be permanently engag-
ed to look after the work.
For Tri-City brotherhood.
The first steps for the organization
of a tri-city brotherhood were taken
last evening. A nominating committee
consisting of T S. Foster, A. NJ Par
ker and F. o. Canedy was appointed to
nominate officers. A committee on
membership was also appointed These
committees will report at the next
meeting, which will be held in April,
shortly after the trt-city convention of
laymen. The final arrangements for
the federation of the brotherhood will
then be made.
Mr.. MacFarlane also spoke at the
revival services which were held after
the mems meeting. The men who had
attended the supper marched from the
dining room to the church auditorium
in a body, singing, Onward, Christian
Soldiers" There was a large attend
ance at the revival services. These
services will continue through the
week. Mr.. MacFarlane left for his
home in Kansas City last night.

is STRENUOUS PLAY.

Because THE House of a Thousand
Candles" Is a strenuous play, it is not
by any means a melodrama. 1t is in
the very same class with The Lion
and the Mouse" and The Man of the
Hour" and is enjoying equally as
great a success as these famous plays.
Its triumphs have been entirely due
to the oddity of its story which is
without parallel in the annals of the
stage 1t is altogether unusual to find
a story that is at once weird, fascinat-
ing. thrilling and decidedly amusing.
All of these elements have simply
made THE House of a Thousand Can
dies the drama of the season and it
is doubtful if any of the so-caned book
plays are enjoying the vogue that is
being accorded Meredith Michelson's
delightful novel The dramatization IS
satisfying in every way because those
who have read the book find the same
characters which they have pictured
on the stage while all the incidents
which are so wildly described in the
story are seen back of the fOotlights
with even more sharpness. The com
pany and production have been accord
ed the warmest praise. The House
of a Thousand Candles" will be pre-
scented at the Illinois next Saturday,

The principal coal carrying rail-

officials, are beginning to cease stor-
ing coal in anticipation of a strike
on April l. having come to the con-
clusion that differences between the
miners and the operators will be set
tied in an amicable manner. Rail-
road officials insist that the annual
talk of a coal strike has done great
injury to the coal trade as well as to
consumers, and openly charge that
much of such talk has been done to
advance prices during early months
of the year.

CAUSES OF CONSUMPTION
Chicago Health Bulletin Tells How
People Contract Disease.

Chicago Health Bulletin Tells How
People Contract Disease.
"COnsumptives who observe the
proper precaution against spreading
the disease are safe consumptives and
should be encouraged"
From this word of sympathy the
weekly health bulletin of the Chicago
department of health turns to an emu
meration of some of the reasons why
persons contract consumption. Here
they are:
l. They breathe or eat the germs.
2. They live in foul, dusty air.
8. They work or live in bad houses.
4. They are in right condition to
catch the disease and to have it spread
in their bodies.

Husband Drowned in Mississippi.

Mrs. w. Z. Smith of WinOna,
Mimi. writes that the people of this
vicinity be notified of the disappear
ance of her husband, w. E. Smith,
who is thought to have been drowned
in the Mississippi river. She thinks
that probably when the ice breaks up
in the spring the body may rise to
the surface and may be conveyed
down the river a considerable dis
lance and she wishes to be notified in
case any such body is found in this
vicinity. Mrs. Smith says that her
husband wandered away from home
while in a delirious condition and
she has reason to believe that his
body is in the river. He was without
coat or hat at the time.

STILL ON REBATE
Bluff Improvement Association
Will Hear Report of Spec
ial Committee.
CITY CLERK STANDS PAT
Living Up to Law, but People Feel
They Ought to Be Allowed to
Do as They Like.

Plans for the Improvement of the
East End park will be discussed at a
meeting of the Bluff Improvement as
ISOLATION to be held tomorrow evening
at the Horace Mann school on Four
teenth avenue.
William Jackson has been invited
to give an address on the development
and beautifying of public parks. The
committee appointed TO investigate
the disposition to be made of the Tri-
City Railway company Fourteenth ave
nue. paving rebate will report to the
association. So far 1t is understood
there are but two property holders
who will demand the return of the re-
bate. The city has voted to donate
its share to the park fund, with the
understanding that it is to be en-
ployed in purchasing Fairgrounds
equipment for the east end park. The
amount that any one individual would
be entitled TO under the apportionment
of the rebate is so small that it is al
most inconceivabIe that any one,
knowing the purpose to which the
funds is to be devoted, could demand
his share.
Hole in the Total.
City Attorney J. F. Witter, at a re
cent meeting of the council, volun-
teered his services gratis as commits
sioner in the apportionment of the re-
bate due the property holders, but his
work was to cover only those who
would demand the return of the sums
due them. However, the city clerk
to be in accord with the law, has in
sisted that the apportionment be COM
plete, including all of the benefciaries.
This will require the appointment Of
a paid commissioner, whose compen-
satiOn will make a large hole in the
total. 1t would seem that there was
70 way around the difficulty but to
live up TO the legal requirements. al
though ignoring of the technicality in
q matter in which sentiment was all
one way, would not seem to be such 4
serious thing to do.
Giving Away Their Own Money.
The people of the east end who are
"Giying their claims that they may
assist in the equipment of their newly
acquired park assuredly ought to be
