,CHlCAGO'S POOR
SUFFERING FOR FUEL
UNITED PRESS LnAsnD wIRn. |

Chicago, Jan. S.---Rich and poor
alike are suffering from the cold to-
day. The majority of the coal yards
of the city are down to their last
bunker, and there is little likelihood
of fuel supplies reaching Chicago for
many days.
The conditions existing among the
poor is pitiful, and there can be no
relief until charitable organizations
can secure fuel from some source.
Thousands of applications for relief
were received by the police today,
but none was forthcoming.
The chaotic conditions of railroad
schedules, due to the storm and cold
of the last week, has made impossible
the transportation Of coal from the
mines.
Thousands of men are idle as a
result of closing down of factories
and Office forces will be reduced to-
day until the big downtown build
ings are again heated.

Jackson, Mich, Jan. S.--Former
Mayor Dunno, of Chicago, in a speech
at the annual luncheon of. the Jack
son Society, today soundly fayed
President Taft, his cabinet and the
Republican party, and made a fer
vent appeal to insurgent Republicans
and Democrats to stand shoulder to
shoulder in the struggle he believes
is approaching.
Dunno was scheduled to speak on
the Democratic position In regard to
the Payne-Aldrich tariff. His re-
marks led to an attack upon Presi-
dent Taft, whom he charged with
breaking his promises of tariff re-
vision downward
"The people," he said, "had hoped
Taft would select cabinet advisers
who had honor and manhood enough
to advise him to keep the pledges he
made during the campaign.
Judge of the amazement," he
said. ''when they read the following:
"Knox, the handy man of the steel
corporation and other Pennsylvania
monopolies
"Nagle. Standard OIL attorney.
Strict Construction Ballinger,
who believes In the strict construc-
tion of every law against the govern
ment, where the interests OF private
syndicates are involved, and who is
now under investigation by con-
gress.
Hitchcock, the past master OF
practical politics.
{" Illinois Central Dickinson and
Swell Canned Goods McVeagh, an
ex-Democrat of most exclusive, aris-
tocratic and plutocratic predelic-
tion."
Dunno further charged that the
Republican party sold its policies and
leadership to the mrn and corpora
tions who had contributed the most
generously to its campaign fund.

will probably be contested. 1t is all
legged by Mr.. Fendrick that the in
spectors called at his shop yester-
day and took possession of a can Of
lard which was not for sale to the
public, it having been prepared for
his own personal consumption,
Peter Reylts, the proprietor of the
Peoples Market, on South CONNER
cial street, was visited yesterday af-
ternoon by the inspectors, and, after
examining his stock of lard, left ap-
parenty satisfied, but this morning
the inspectors called again and Sc
cured bucket of the lard for analy-
cation in Portland. At first sight,
the inspectors appeared to be satis-
fed with Mr.. Reyelts' lard, but later
came to another conclusion. The
proprietor, however, strongly main
tains that his lard is free of other in
gradients than pure hog fat, and that
the inspectors are at liberty to an
alyze his stock thoroughly, as far as
he is concerned.
1t is not the general contention
that the violators were producing
unwholesome or unclean goods, and
it is the universal opinion that lard
containing a mixture of what is
known as compound and beef tallow
is as sanitary and serviceable as the
ordinary hog fat. The local markets
are creditably spoken of by the COM
missioners as being neat and clean,
and about the only fault that can be
found with the present action taken,
is that certain amount of deception
has been practiced in that the buck
cts which contained tallow were
marked lard.

lurrrrp pnnsa nnAsno w1nn.1

Anderson, Ind, Jan. 8.-The chill
dren of Mrs. Maggie Stroud, mother
of eighteen, were hungry and cold
today because their mother and
bread-winner languished In jail.
Mrs. Stroud was arrested for steal
ing coal from railway cars with
which to keep her family from freez-
ing. She was hailed before the police
Judge today and held to the circuit
court.
Mrs. Stroud wept bitterly when the
decision was given and begged to
be released. There was no one to
care for her sick and half-starved
children, she said. She had been un-
able TO get work with which to buy
fuel and food. and only resolved on
theft when her olde rchil,ren were
thrown out OF employment and her
money ran out.
Mrs. Stroud did not have time to
warm up her home with the coal
she took from a coal car standing
on the tracks near by.
Some one had seen her and the
police took her 10 the city Jail be-
fore she reached home with her load.
