Chicago, Dec. 2.-TShe offer OF the

berths were priced more than $l.5O

Opposition to the plan was offered
on the part OF the railroads In the
allegation that they would have to
stand a part of the brunt OF the less
ened prices, and by the attorneys gen
eral on the claim that the reduction
was not sufficient.

Everybody does want TO wear Endicott-
Johnson shoes as soon as they know about
them, and nearly 10000 stores arc selling the
goods. 8i ~
Some dealers are not as quick as others to
fall into line.
A retail shoe dealer has his friends and his
old business associates from whom he has
been buying goods fory years.
He has store full of other shoes perhaps,
and he doesn't like to break into his lines
with another make
Sometimes a shoe dealer likes to have his
own name on every pair of shoes and keep
the wearer from knowing where they are
made. This enables him to keep the matter
OF profit entirely in his own hands.
1t is not always the shoe dealers fault
Some large wholesale shoe houses pay expert
salesmen $4,000 to $4,000 year lust be-
cause of their ability to go Out and sell the
retail shoe dealer and keep him satisfied.
Endicott, Johnson & Co. do not employ
fancy talent on their selling for,e; and they
are somewhat particular as to the kind of
dealer that sells their shoes,
After they have worked so hard to reduce
the cost of shoes to the wearer and cut out
Inc four intervening profits they want TO DO
business with the shoe dealer who is willing
to sell their goods at fair living profit-a
dealer who would rather make his money by
small margin on many sales than big profit
on few sales
The selection OF the right dealers to handle
the Endicott- Johnson lne is a problem just
as was the building Of their tanneries and the
getting rid OF the shoe iobber
Endicott Johnson & Co. can sell all the
shoes they make each year But their bus-
ness is growing every year and the future of
their business depends upon the service they
render to the wearer.
Now as buyer and wearer Of shoes every
reader of this paper has right to vote on
this question Of buying shoes independent Of
all trusts.
Are YOU content to go on paying four
profits on every pair of shoes you buy
Are YOU satisfied to pay tribute to the hide
trust. the leather trust, the leather jobber and
the shoe jobber-and about how long do YOU
think you are going to submit to it?

Today Endcott, Johnson & Co. are in
dependent of all Trusts. They are the only
shoe people in the United States that do not
pay tribute to the leather combination.
They buy the raw hides in the open markets
of the world and tan every foot and pound OF
leather they use This not only means big
saving in cost and better tannage, but il means
tanning every lot of leather with All eye to the
particular shoe that is to be made from ta
great advantage in the working quality of the
stock andthe wear Of the shoes.
Endicott- Johnson Co. have developed proc
esses that double the life Of some feathers
They tan Il 900 skins of calf leather every
day.
They tan nearly 1000 sides Of the finest
upper leather and 200 sides of sole leather
every day.
Last year, nearly 10000 shoe stores sold
the product OF the Endicott- Johnson CO. fac
tories, which is the largest output of any in
dividual concern.
A beautiful town has grown up around this
enterprise--the town of Endicott, New York
where five thousand people depend for
their livelihood upon the Endicott- Johnson
factories and tanneries.
Established in their tanneries, Endcott
Johnson & Co. save the wearer three profits on
the leather in his shoes--the Hide dealers
profit the Tanners profit and the Leather
jobbers profit.
Their last saving to the wearer was 10 cut
out the profit OF the wholesale shoe house and
sell their shoes direct to the retail store in
every town.
The leather in Endicott- Johnson shoes will
wear as leather used to wear twenty years ago
in the days Of honest tanning
Endicou- Johnson make shoes for the work
ingman and dress shoes as fine as any man
wants to wear They sell school shoes and
shoes for women. And because they have cut
ont four profits between the Tanner and the
shoe store they can save the wearer from SOC
to ST 90 on every pair and give him a leather
that simply cannot be had in any other shoe
Now the reader will naturally say. why
doesn't everybody wear Endcott- Johnson
shoes and why doesn't every shoe store sell
them?'

right TO persuade the strike breakers to
give up their positions Conductor
Wheeler made a brief statement of the
conditions which caused the strike. Ed
ward Hurd spoke briefly. Mr.. Crosby
spoke again, urging the necessity of a
10-hour limit in the railroadman's day.
After the general meeting the strikers
held brief conference
Conductor Burke Arrested.
The biggest sensation of the strike yes
terday was the arrest and trial OF the
conductor of the New London passenger
train on a charge Of pointing a revolver
at a group of women. The crowd at the
station was wrought up to a high pitch
OF excitement and it was well for the man
that he was in charge of Chef-of- Police
George Wilson. In talking with news
paper men before the hearing the man
told a story which shed interesting light
on the methods which are being used to
secure strike breakers. The man said
that his name was John Burke and that
his home was in Jamaica, Long Island.
He had been employed as a plumbers
helper in New York and was out of
work. An employment agency offered
him "a place a freight handler at New
London and he went there with 800
others When they arrived they We're
informed that their duties would be run
ming passenger trains on the New Lon
don division. They We're u receive So
each way, or $40 for the round trip. This
looked like n princely salary to the New
York men, many Of whom had been out
of work for months Burke was assigned
to duty as a conductor and he brought
the train up Wednesday afternoon He
was among the number of strike break
ers who promised to give up their po-
sitions when dealt with by the strikers
Wednesday. He said that he had no
intention OF coming back TO Brattleboro
Yesterday but he was told in New Lon
don that he would have to run to Palmer
only. When the train arrived there he
had orders to come on to Brattleboro.
Burke was arraigned before Judge +.
W. Gibson of the municipal court late
yesterday afternoon on a town grand jul
ror's complaint charging him with -four
ishing revolver and pointing it at Jane
Clarity. According to the testimony of
the first witness, Miss Nellie Anderson,
the respondent was standing on the plat
form Of the car shortly after its arrival
when she and four other young women
came over and called him scab among
other things. She said that he drew a
revolver and pointed it at them. Her
version of the story was similar to that
Of other witnesses, Mrs. Winnie Bar
bette, Mrs. Agnes Smith and Mrs. Nora
Anderson. Joseph w. Cline testified that
he went into the car and found a revolver
on a seat. Chief Wilson testified to find
ing a box of cartridges on Burke which
fitted the revolver passed over to him by
Cline. No other witnesses were called
by the state, and Harold f. Whitney, who

conducted the case for Clarke c. Fits
on behalf of the Central Vermont rail-
road, asked that the hearing be con-
tinued SO as to give opportunity for the
defense to secure witnesses. most Of
whom had returned to New London. The
hearing was continued until Saturday,
July 80 Bail was fixed at $40 and Mr.
Whitney became surety.
Locomotive OF the Rail-
While the hearing was in progress last
night another excited crowd gathered at
the station to receive the strike breakers
who were to arrive at S o'clock on the
train from New London. Chief Wilson
stood guard at the car entrance when
the train pulled in and the passengers
alighted without any inconvenience at
the hands of the crowd The strike
breakers stayed on the car and the strik-
ers and loafers all went down the plat
form to see the new men get off It was
with great glee that the crowd saw the
locomotive run off the rails and stick fast
at the switch as it was backing down
to the yard. Just how the accident hap
pened is not certain. but it appears prob
able that the strike breaker who jumped
off the train to open the switch at the
siding was in too great haste to get to
a place Of safety and did not throw il
over far enough. The engine and ten
der were wedged in fast between the
rails ana n s there was no WrecklnS crew
to put it back on the rails 1t had to be
left there. The engine blocked the main
line, but luckily a siding was free and
the Boston & Maine trains could get
past. The strike breakers were told
some rather spicy things and ii was re-
ported that a few stones were thrown
at them Later in the evening the strike
breakers were escorted by the railroad
detective force to the village, where a
curious and ieering crowd gathered to
see them eat their luncheon. One of the
restaurants declined to furnish food for
them, but another restaurant keeper
took them in. He was subjected to a
mild boycott the rest of the evening.

which has been standing in the yard
since the strike began. No further trou-
