 In discussing the matter of this pavement with the taxpayers We found universal satisfaction Fl Paso has paved her residence districts. as we'll as the business districts, with bitulithic pavement, this class of pavement being in our judgment an unnecessary expense where the traf- fife is light.
 Riverside and Pasadena have in the past constructed many miles of oil dirt roads. without rock base, but owing to the high cost of mainte- nance on this class of road, and its comparatively short life. we do not recommend such construction. where improvement is desired.
 After consideration of the facts developed during our investigation. we unhesitatingly recommend an oil ma cadam street from 30 to 3i feet in width, on residence streets. the amount of rock to be used varying from four to six inches. according to traffic. and we believe that the Riv- erside specifications should be fol- lowed.
 In the business districts. where the traffic requires more substantial pavement. we feel that without delay the service of an expert in street pay ing should at once be secured. who. after a personal inspection of our local conditions, including soil and road materials, should prepare speci-

GOMPERs CASE SETTLEMENT
Agreement Between Labor Lead
ers and Bucks Stove Company.
United States Supreme Court Will De-
eide Contempt Cases Despite
the Peace Pact.

Cincinnati, Ohio. = Samuel Com
pers; president of the American Fed
Grafton of Labor, announced here that
the Bucks Stove and Range Company,
of st. Louis, has agreed to abandon
its open shop policy and hereafter to
employ none but union labor.
Representatives of the Bucks Stove
and Range Company, of st. Louis;
Samuel Gompers, of the American
Federation of Labor, and representa-
tives of the several unions having
workmen at that company's plant,
reached an agreement on the case
which was up in the United States
Court at Washington a few months
ago, and which resulted in the sem
tence to jail of President Gompers,
John Mitchell and Frank Morrison
for contempt.
William H. Cribben and Thomas l..
Hogan represented the company, Pres
ident Gompers the federation, and
joseph Valentine, John Frey, T. M.
DAILY, Charles R. Atherton, Frank
G~rimshaw, j.. H Kaefer and George
Bechtold for the four unions, which
have been in dispute with the stove
concern.
BY the terms Of the agreement en-
tered into here the union men say
that their representatives will go to
st. Louis to confer with the employers
of their men within thirty days, and
that then the hours of labor, wages
and conditions of employment of the
laborers will be considered.
TIL tn%4 Of fho4
time shall become effective ninety
days after the date of their being
signed. The third specifies that the
labor organizations shall make known
and publicly declare that all contro-
versies are at an end with the Bucks
Stove and Range Company
The Bucks Stove and Range Com
pany, through its representatives at
this conference, "agree to withdraw
its attorneys from any case now pend
ing in the courts which has grown out
of the dispute between the American
Federation of Labor and any of Its
affiliated organizations on the n
hands and the Bucks Stove and Range
Company on the other, and that the
said company will not bring any pro-
ceedings in the courts against any In
dividual or organizations growing out
of past controversies between said
company and organized labor"
Mr.. Gompers said here that this
agreement does not alter the case
against him in the courts, and that
these cases are now before the SUI
preme Court of the United States.
The only way this alters the case is
that no attorneys for the company
shall have anything to say regarding
the final disposition of that litigation.

Lowery, Of the Utica National,
Found in Philadelphia.
Former Assistant Cashier Valves Elk.
tradition and Goes Back to Face
Charges-Lost Specializing.

Philadelphia. - After eluding the
police of several cities and private de-
tectives for more than two months, j.
Howard Lowery, alias James H. john
son, wanted in Utica. N. Y, on a
charge of embezzling $144,500 from
the Utica City National Bank, was be-
trayed into the hands of a detective
here by his bride and taken to New
York State before the local authori-
ties were aware of what was going on.
His arrest is the reward of patience
and perseverance on the part of Dan
lei j. Kelleher, a detective of the New
York force of the American Bankers
Association, who had spent many days
on the case.
Vice-President James S. Sherman
Is one of the directors of the looted
bank. Lowery disappeared from
Utica on April Is, and his capture
was effected by detectives acting for
the American Bankers Association.
The advent of a bank examiner put
Lowery to flight last April. Accord
Ing to the charges, he had been steal
ing from the bank for foul years.
All the time Lowery was counting
Miss Bessie H. Sanderson, a pretty
young steno grapher in a law Office in
the same building as the bank.
He married Miss Sanderson three
weeks before his flight. The marriage
was kept a secret by both. He con-
tinued to occupy the old Lowery FAM
lily house alone and she kept to her
small apartment.
Lowery disappeared last April
while an examiner vas going yer
the banks books.
Detective Kelleher established to
his own satisfaction that the woman
was in communication with Lowery,
and that his man was in Philadelphia.
He followed young Mrs. Lowery from
Wilmington to Philadelphia, and on
the train accosted her and questioned
her so relentlessly that she broke
down and told him where her husband
was living.
Lowery was downcast when cap
tured. He waived extradition and
went back to Utica in the hands of
two detectives. He says he lost the
money in Wall Street.

shamelessly seizes, be it ever so little.
nelson's his blood" This is a bottom
fact-theft, graft, extortion. poisons
the blood; it makes a bad character.
We think that a little dishonesty is a
definite thing that goes no further
than the act itself; that a person IS
guilty of a little theft. and that is an
it amounts to; that the sin is located
like a scratch or a pimple. But no;
the dishonesty germ gets into the
blood and poisons that, and makes the
fault constitutional, ready to produce
all kinds of faults.
There is the harm. 1t is not IN

County became serious. A Woodbury.
dealer had to beg, almost, to get a
supply for his customers. In one in
stance he was compelled to pay seven
cents a quart, bottle it and deliver 1T
around for eight cents. A farmer
gives this version of the situation:N
For a long time calves have been so
high that farmers have sold them to
butchers. and have not raised the
usual milk-producing number of cows.
Again, butchers pay such a high price
for a COW that as soon as she Stacks up
In milk the butcher gets her at $50 or
more. This farmer adds that at the
present rate this is being carried out
in a few years consumers will be pay
ing twenty-five cents a quart for milk.

Buffalo, N. Y.-Henry Schultz, a
farmer living on the Nash road in
Tonawanda, Niagara County, had an
experience in aviation when a small
tornado struck the load of hay on
which he was seated, driving to
market, and lifted the hay and farmer
from the wagon high into the air
and then deposited Schultz, still on
top of the hay, several hundred feet
distant from the wagon. The tornado
did considerable damage to crops and
destroyed several orchards. AS far
as could be learned, no persons were
injured by it. The tornado came
from the Niagara River and swept
across Niagara County, touching the
earth at various points and doing
damage.

Reports From Henderson. Union and
Webster Counties Indicate That
Damage Approximating $4,000.
900 Was Done.

Louisville, Ky.-Widespread dam
age in several counties in Kentucky
and Indiana has been caused by the
cloudbursts which broke after about
three weeks of almost daily rain.
Henderson, Union, Webster and Mich
olas Counties in Kentucky suffered
most. Estimates of the damage have
been variously estimated, but 1t Is
known that it amounts to at least
s2.000,000.
A quarter of a mile of the Louis
Vile and Nashville track, between
Paris and Maysville, was washed
away, and three steel bridges were to-
tally wrecked. Many houses were
carried off by the waters and a large
acreage of tobacco, corn and wheat
is a complete loss. Live stock also
suffered heavily.
In Carlisle, KY, tobacco stored IN
warehouses of the Burley Tobacco
Society was soaked and damaged.
Eight blocks of the city and lumber
cars were inundated and much timber
was washed away. The loss In Car.
isle and Nicholas County alone is es-
timated at 100000. Two inches OF
rain fell in Maysville, KY, and the
waters swept the houses, carrying on
furniture and everything movable,
while tobacco plants were washed out.
The bridges at Needmore and MO-
ransburg were swept away.
Washouts occurred on the Monon
and the Indiana Central railroads in
Indiana, and traffic will be tied up to
some extent. All trains in the Monon
were detoured.
Practically all the low lands in
Jefferson County (Louisville) are I'M
der water.
Henderson, Ky.-Reports reaching
here from Henderson, Union n
Webster Counties indicate that dam
age approximating 100000 was
done by the cloudburst. 1t is esti-
mated that $4,000 acres Of pooled to-
bacco In Henderson County alone
have been destroyed and one tobacco
plantation of 200 is a total loss.
Hundreds of heads of cattle, sheep
and hogs were swept away by the
floods. 1t rained nearly every day
for three weeks, and the cloudburst
continued from 10 o'clock P. m. until
daylight.
