Chicago. Dec. 1-Federal investigation
into the existence OF colossal rubber
trust. representative OF millions OF dollars

ness OF this country. which has been car
ried on secretly in the East. was under
way IN Chicago to-day,
Joseph Darling, special agent of the
United States Department Of Justice, who
came 10 Chicago Tuesday. admitted the

STAGE WANTS LL0YD-GEoRGE,
Vaudeville Oner Made 10 Chancellor
OF the Exchequer.

New York. Dec. If the Right Hon.
Lloyd-George, the British chancellor Of
the exchequer. wants TO quis British pol
itics and British finance fou time and
begin "Lime-housing' IN the United
States. he has the chance. A well-kaown
theatrical firm this afternoon sent the
following cable TO the distinguished
Welshman:
"Offer you new theater and guarantee
e. COO week support for purpose organ
izing American campaign 10 aid you
againsS -ords Must be twice daily from
your repertoire on Lime-housing' lines
which novelty here"
The peculiarly vigorous and original
invectlve which Mr. Lloyd-GeOrge uses IN
his campaign speeches In attacking the
Lords and wealthy men generally has
been termed 'Lime-hOusing.' ever since
he made a speech a few weeks ago IN
the Lime-house section Of the East End
OF London. The theatrical firm that
cabled the offer thinks from the samples
that have been cabled 10 the United
States that "Lime-hOusing' on the vaude
Vile stage in this country would be
greater drawing card than George AIDES
slang.

He does not show this book to
parade his virtues, bat he does
show it to illustrate how hard it
is TO sift the wheat from the
chaf, because many OF the adver-
hsements, on their face, look all
right, but THEY COULD NOT
CHECK UP ON INVESTIGA-
TON.
The publisher has found that
occasionally advertisements have
been specially written for his pub
llcation-written so cleverly that
they appeared genuine. But the
system he has in his Office gen
orally detects these pretenders to
lntegrity-and their advertise
ments are refused.
While was in the publishers
office the advertising director of
a big firm dropped in. He told
me that this same publisher had
once upon time sent him a no
tice, notwithstanding he was
spending with him about $780,
900 a year, to the following eff
feet:
Your grocery department is
CROOKED. STRAIGHTEN
IT OUT"
The firm, instead of resenting
the message and stopping adver-
Using, STRENGTHENED IT
OUT" selling only articles that
are GUARANTEED TO BE
PURE.
Aren't ALL STRAIGHT AID
VERTISERS BENEFITED BY
the attitude of this publisher?
And the number of honest adj
vertisers is very great. because
his paper is filled TO the muzzle
with advertising.

ADVERTISING TALKS.

Last week | visited A PUB
LISHER~one of the publishers
who accepts these advertising
talks because they are in line
with his policy-just as they are
in line with the policies of all
other publishers who print them.
have known in a general way
how PUBLISHERS ARE
GUARDING THE INTER
ESTS OF THEIR READERS
by refusing to print untrust-
worthy advertisements, but l
never realized the extent to
which publishers are going in
this line until my visit TO this
particular publisher.
He forbids the use of his name
because he says he does not want
gold medal pinned to his coat
lapel just because he is trying to
do his duty.
He showed me in closets in his
Office all sorts of things that he
had bought for the purpose of
analysis. There were bottles OF
pickles and ketchup, all sorts of
candies, wines, &c.-all of which
had been analysed and found to
be impure.
The manufacturers of these
articles have all been told the
facts and have been advised that
they cannot advertise in his news
paper.
In a scrapbook which he keeps
for his own information are past
ed proofs of advertisements that
have been rejected because they
are not the kind he will permit to
go before the readers of his pub
lication.

the Railroads Cause.
BRANDEIs PREPARING ATTACK
Attorney for PIasatins VIII Bring
Chairman's Address Before Inter
state Commerce Commission in
Final Arguments Against ship
pers as showing Prejudice.

Chairman Knapp. of the Interstate
Commerce Commission. and his recent
speech at New York. which the shippers
regard as favorable to the railroads
cause, viii be the targets of the ship
pers' attorneys when the arguments
are presented against the freight increase
on January 2. This IS the information
that came from an authoritative source
Al the conclusion OF the hearings yester-
dap.
Attorney Louis R. Brandeis, represent
ing the shippers. will bring the speech
before the commission in the final argu-
ments, aud, It is reported, will endeavor
to have it placed on record. Since the
address was made q week ago before the
Business Mems League in New York
shippers have been aroused. and have
taken the chairman's utterances as q
foreTunner OF an announcement by the
commission IN favor OF railroad rate In
crease.
Shippers who attended the hearings
here have been especially interested in
Chairman Knapps remarks and Judge
Juds0n c. Clements later refutation of
them as representing the views OF the
entire body.
Claim OF Prejudice.
II is claimed by the shippers that
Chairman Knapp's remarks placed him
IN the light OF being prejudfced TO their
cause. IN their efforts TO prove this, the
speech win be brought before the body
and possibly to the attention OF the Pres
ident. according 10 reports current last
night.
Attorney Brandels would not discuss
this phase OF the rate controversy yes
terday. and left last night for New
York, where he viii prepare arguments in
the case. Attorney Walter I. Fisher.
OF Chicago. who represents shipping in
terests in the Middle West, was reticent
on the subject. too, but that there is
an eruption due when the arguments are
presented was conceded by others.
To Chairman Knapp the story or the
uslbrage taken ar his speech was new.
4 do not believe the shippers. after
having digested my remarks, are as
much perturbed as they first thought"
said Judge Knapp last night.
The taking of testimony ended yester-
day. The investigation just completed
is the most comprehensive that the IN
terstate Commerce Commission has ever
undertaken. The carriers contend that
upon the outcome Of the investigation
depends their future credit and WE'LL
being, while the shippers have commended
that the Increases were not necessary.
