SLUMP IN AUTO BUSINESS.
People Are Not Buying Reduction in
Prices Coming.

New York.-Indications point to the
bottom having fallen out of the auto.
mobile business. The manufacturers,
it is reported in trade circles, are
making strenuous efforts to keep up
a show of continued prosperity, but
it is also said that they are not sell
ing their products, but are storing ma
chimes throughout the country at their
various agencies to prevent the pub

the market.
Several large concerns are laying
off men and giving all sorts of rea-
sons for so doing except the state
ment that they are overstocked. Two

Gently closed entirely, ostensibly for
the purpose Of taking inventory, but
the workmen were not given any def
mite time at which to again report for
work, and it is not expected that
these factories will again be in oper-
alton this year.
A well-known automobile agent OF
this city said that all cars would I'M
doubtedly be selling at from rs per
cent. to 80 per cent. less than present
list prices within the next two or
three months. He added: a
'"The trouble with the automobile
business is that the farmers and peo-
pie of the smaller cities and towns
have not taken as kindly to the idea
as was anticipated. The farmers find
that the cost of keeping them. in re-.
pair and operation is more than the
cost of keeping horses to perform the
same work, and while there was, for
time, a tendency among the farmers
to invest in the machines, the demand
for cars from this class of buyers has
practically stopped, and venture to
say we will not again sell to the farm
ers to any extent until prices are ma
terially reduced"

the largest parade of knights Templar

elaborate and Michigan boulevard was
most deliberately decorated. The sir

the entrance to the city, and as the

Moving south to jackson boulevard,
the knights again turned west, and
near the federal building passed be-

which accommodated Governor Deneen

Of the grand commandery of Illinois.
This was a beautiful structure de-
signed by one Of Chicago's most IA
nous sculptors. Upon its top stood
the figures of mounted knights four
teen feet high. At the new city hall
on Washington street the parade was
dismissed, after marching forty-three
blocks.
Care For the Marchers.
Everything that could be thought
OF for the comfort Of the paraders and
the spectators was done by the local
committees. In nearly every block
along the line Of march were station
ed physicians who were also knights
templar, with trained nurses and
equipment fo1a emergency cases. In
addition, emergency hospitals to be
kept open day and night during the
conclave were established at many
points in the center of the city, and
at the West Side ball park which was
selected as the place for the competi-
tive drills.
Wednesday and Thursday were the
days set apart for the drills for which
handsome trophies are awarded, and
band concerts, sight seeing and many
receptions were on the program.
Enhancing Scenes at Night.
The scene in the streets at night
was especially beautiful, for all the
arches, festoons and columns of the
decorative scheme were brilliantly IL
Illuminated, and on State street, in ad-

chants had put up decorations that
transformed the great shopping dis
