IS PRIME Z
REQUISITE IN KITCHEN

! There may sometimes be observed
in the cooked dish loss OF favor,
not a bad taste, but a lack of what
is appetising. 1t would be interest
ing to know in how many cases this
comes from lack of cleanliness in
utensils and methods s=
Personal cleanliness is OF course
essential in the kitchen, and every
good housekeeper endeavors to main
tain a high standard in such mat
tiers. Some food manufactures make
special efforts to secure cleanliness
and hygienic Surroundings, and the
good example they set should be gen.
orally followed.
Food and fingers are carriers OF
contagion." The proper way OF
washing the hands, If seriously
taught and seriously practiced, IN the
market and in the Kitchen, would go
far to remove the source not only
of infection but of such additions
to the food as are disgusting to think
Of. In this matter some food manu.
factories are cleaner in their methods
than are our kitchens. In one large
bakery, where information was col
lected, the rule is in force that every
employe shall wash his hands on re-
turning to the room after leaving 1t
for any purpose whatever.
The running tap, like the shower
bath, offers great Improvement
over old methods of washing. Few
will have patience to fill and refill
the hand basin until the hands are
bathed at last in clean water, but
this result is easily accomplished un-
der the tap. The nail brush and nail
cleaner must have their place in the
kitchen, and their use must be in
sisted on before bread or cake is
mixed and after work at all soiling
in character.
Every one will admit that there is
need for exercising great care in
coughing and sneezing wherever such
necessary acts may be annoying to
Others. When one recalls that ex-
pertinent has shown that a fine spray
of saliva may be thrown in all di-
rections for distance of four OF
five feet by a violent sneeze or cough,
and that often the cause of the cough
or sneeze is something which can be
thus communicated to others, it Is
evident that there is abundant reason
for caution. Particularly is this es.
sential wherever food is prepared, ex-
posed or served

HUNDRED INJURED IN
IRISH RAILWAY WRECK
Coupling Breaks, Runaway Cars
Crash Into Passenger Train

DUBLIN, Ireland, Julq 19.-Four-
teen persons were injured in an acci-
dent on the Great Southern railway at
Roscrea in the northwestern part of
Tipperary county today. None was
killed.
Several cars of an excursion train
on the road broke away from the loco
motive, and, running down an incline,
crashed into a passenger train.
Many persons jumped from the run
away cars and tumbled down the en-
bankment. About 100 persons were in
iured, most of them slightly. A score
of the injured were brought here for
medical treatment.
1t is thought that none received
fatal injuries, and the casualties would
have been fewer had the eXcursionists
clung to their seats instead of taking
chances Of leaping before the collision
occurred. The heavily loaded eXcur-
sion cars gathered momentum rapidly
on the down grade, and the impact
with the train ahead gave the occu-
pants a tremendous shaking up.

U.S.. SIGNAL CORPS HEAD
DECLARES FOR AIRSHIP
General Allen Says Forces With
out Aircraft Would De-
serve Defeat

NEW YORK, July 19.-Any nation
which sent an army into the field for
actual fighting today without COM
plement of air machines-aeroplane
and dirigible balloons-would not be
properly equipped and would deserve
defeat.
This is the conclusion reached by
Gen. James Allen, chief signal officer
of the United States army, after an
exhaustive study of the pros and cons
of army aeronautics. General Allen,
whose position makes him head of mil
itary air navigation in this country
is in New York on a brief business
visit
THE equipment of no army is COM
plete today without air machines" he
said in an interview given out today.
MANY improvements doubtless Will be
made soon, but even with their present
capacity air machines can perform ser
vices of the greatest value.
Two years ago, when experiments
were started at Fort Myer, air navi-
CATION was considered impracticable
by many. 1t is now an accomplished
fact. Germany and France have taken
the lead in aviation because these gov
ernments have granted large appro-
priations for the work. We asked con-
gress for 100000 two years ago and
100000 last year. but nothing was ap-
propriated. But the development of
air machines in this country will con-
tinue because private interests are
taking up the problem with inCreas-
CTeaSing enthusiasm"

ADJUSTMENT OF EASTERN
FREIGHT RATE EXPECTED
Settlement to Be Agreeable to
All Concerned

WASHINGTON, July 19.-An adjust
ment of the eastern freight rate sit
uation probably will be made soon,
The settlement, it is said will be salts
factory alike to the interstate COM
merce commission, the railways and
shippers. The plan involves volun-
tary suspension for several months by
the railroads of the advanced rates.
Chairman Knapp of the interstate
commerce commission had a con-
ference today with a committee repre-
senting the eastern trunk lines and
the roads of the Central Traffic as
sociation concerning the suspension OF
the rates, which are effective Au-
gust 1.
Last week it was announced that the
policy of the commission was to sus-
pend such important tariffs as made
Increases pending an inquiry by the
commission.
To facilitate the work of the com
mission in this regard the committee
of the railroads discussed the subject
with Chairman Knapp.
The committee was headed by G. G.
Mccain, chairman of what is known
as the trunk line committee of New
York city.

PASSENGER TRAINS

BOTH SIDES ARE CONFIDENT
Offer of Minister Of Labor Sug-
geSting Settlement Cold
Iy Received
BOTH SIDES ARE CONFIDENT
Associated Pressl

MONTREAL, July 19,-The end of
the first twenty-four hours of the strike
of conductors, trainmen and yardmen
on the Grand Trunk system finds both
sides confident of victory. The COM
pany succeeded in keeping its through
passenger trains moving.
Vice President Fitzhugh of the Grand
Trunk said tonight that when the mails
and passenger trains are moving with
out friction the freight business will
be moved.
This is not going to be strike of a
day or two" said Mr. Fitzhugh. The
company went into it knowing what 1t
was facing, and is determined to see 1t
through to the end. 1t cannot afford
to lose"
Vice President Murdoch of the train
mems union said they had never ex-
pected to tie up the passenger service
and pointed out the incorporation OF
freight trains and suburban trains as
proof that the men had cause for sat
isfaction over the results of the first
day of the strike.
Members of the union claim to nave
information that members of their
organization in the United States will
not handle freight cars or passenger
coaches turned over to their roads py
the Grand Trunk.
So far the only attempt made at
settlement has been the offer of the
minister of labor to do anything pos
sible to secure peace by arbitration.
The offer of mediation was coldly re-
ceived.
1--WE are the arbitrators now,' de-
clared the strike leaders.
There has not been the slightest
disorder in Montreal.
Vice President Murdock announced
tonight that $50 men had been added
to the strikers by calling out men en-
ployed on the Wabash, which has run
ming rights over the Grand Trunk
tracks from Windsor to Niagara Fails.

Hear Plan

NEW YORK, July 19.-Within fort
night a meeting of national bankers
will be called at the New York clearing
house to hear the details of plan for
the formation of a national currency
association, along the lines provided in
the Aldrich-Vreeland law, as suggested
recently by Secretary of the Treasury
MacVeagh. 1t is regarded probable
that this action by the New York banks
will be followed by the establishment
of similar associations by the national
banks of other cities and states
According to members Of the bankers
committee, Secretary MacVeagh's sug-
gestion meets with general approval
and Endorsement. 1t is not believed,
however, that there is any great like
lihood such system will be called
into use within the present foresight
of any one. But the opinion appears
to be that the general good of such a
system for the steadying effect its eX-
istence would have could not be over
estimated.
The law provides for the issuance of
additional bank notes in time of emer-
gency by an organization of ten or
more national banks, having capital

of the trainmen and conductors on the
Windsor Niagara Falls division of the
Wabash system has resulted in a COM
plete tieup of freight traffic on the
windsor end of the line. Passenger

face while standing in the train vesti-
bule Two of his teeth were knocked
out and his face cut badly. The police

REAL STORY OF YOUNG
SHOOTING IS To COME
Coroner Says Certain Persons
Can Tell Much More of
Chicago Tragedy

CHICAGO, July 19.-'I don't think
the real story of the shooting of Mrs.
Emma Young by Charles w. Rigdon
and the suicide of the latter last FRI
day has yet been told" said Coroner
Peter NJ. Hoffman last night. And
there are certatian persons who can
tell much that has been left unsaid.
We will get to the bottom of the af-
fair If possible"
Many conflicting statements have
been made by all parties in the case.
Mrs. Young declared yesterday that
Rigdon shot her and killed himself
because he was jealous of two men.
One of them, she said, is John c. Fet-
ger, millionaire, in whose Office the
shooting took place, and the other is
S. W. Tanner clerk in downtown
hotel. Both men denied her story to
Police Inspector Gavin that she feared
that Rigdon's original intention was
to murder both her and Fetzer. She
said she was afraid to go and meet the
man alone and for that reason she
took her half-sister, MARY Theresa
Turner" with her to FetZer's office.
Mrs. YOUNG assured me that Rig
don's discovery that she had written
letter to Mr.. Fetzer was the imme-
diate cause of the tragedy" Inspector
LAWN said. "She also insisted that
Rigdon had threatened to take the life
of Fetzer day or two before the
shooting and that Fetzer had sent her
word, For Gods sake, see Rigdon
and straighten this out
at was afraid to meet Rigdon alone
in Mr.. Fetzer's offices after I had
agreed to go there the woman said,
so / took my sister with me. When
T Sdon came in l showed him let
ter and old him he had been perse-
cutting me-
THAT was about all that was said as
far as she was able to tell" concluded
the police official. "She said that Rig
don remarked We'll, 1 suppose that
you don't want anything further to do
with me- dropped his head in his
hands and then reached for his gun
in his desk and began to shoot at her
and her sister as they ran out of the
room and Mrs. Young fell. He turned
the revolver to his own head and fired"

UNIONS DETERMINED TO
REMOVE PICKETING BAN
Continued from Page Oneo

the Union Labor temple auditorium
last night, Job Hartman, another
union attorney, said: 49,.
you strikers are up against tMhe M
enemy, now, you are up against the
sharp bayonets OF the anu, anu -Pichevin1 that un1
had them whipped They knew that
they they could never get men to take your
places % if you got to them first to tell
them the truth of the situation. The
ordinance is a war measure. 1t is up
to you to test it"
Hartman advocates the plan OF
filing the jails with violators or t1e
law and clogging the courts with trials
of arrested pickets. If Hartman $
advice to the strikers is carried out
picketing will go on, and then, as
result of the arrests which would fol-
low, the city will be embarrassed with
the expense of jury trials by the score
