HOT AIR ABOUT
The CONDITION
OF The STRIKE

Los Angeles, CAL, Sept. 2.AFol-
lowing the receipt Of a telegram from
San Francisco today, the contents of
which are being kept secret, local la
Dor leaders today appear to be conf
dent that General Manager Krutt-
schnitt, of the Hartman lines will
soon recognize the System fedora
tion' as body, and that all Difficult
ties will be amicably adjusted.
Upon the arrival of the message,
which is believed to be from Presi-
dent Kline, of the Blacksmiths'
Union, a closed meeting was held by
local leaders, and they emerged smil-
ing, and apparently confident of ul-
innate victory.
AS evidence that the conference in
San Francisco between Kruttschnitt
and labor representatives was not a
failure President Misner, of the Cen
trail Labor Council, today stated that
If the meeting had been fruitless
word to that effect would have been
received here. On the contrary, he
said, things now look brighter than
ever before for an amicable settle
ment of all difficulties.

along the Midlothian turnpike on
the night of the murder. He STOP
ped at the scene of the crime, or
nearby, and refilled his radiator,
while a Richmond woman accom-
panying him, stood on the running
board. The fact that his car STOP

told his story before, as he was
afraid it might cause him domestic

admitted he was guessing as to the
time his car stopped near the scene
of the Beattie murder. He said that
he did not know the name of the wo-
man with him; that he had picked
her up in front of local hotel and
took her riding. He said he never

Loss Was $1,000.

San Francisco, Sept 2.-The Port
land express arrived here today, and
reported a loss of $1,000 at the hands
Of train robbers north of Reddlng.
The train crew reported that the
Ten loaded their booty into sacks and
took to their automobile which they
believe the thugs must desert on the
Dunsmuir-Kennet road to escape into
the hills. This would leave the ma
chine for a valuable clue.
The OFFICERS are puzzled as to how
the men forced their way into the
Portland express car, which was sup
posed to be under lock and key. They
did not dynamite their way into the
car.

tress.

Indigestion or any chronic stomach
trouble leads to loss of vigor and vi
tally; half the nervous wrecks in
America today can blame Indigestion
for their condition.
Fermentation of food means that
your stomach is rundown; that your
food does not digest and that the
blood, not being supplied with nutri.
t1ous elements cannot supply the va.
rious organs of the body with suff.
cient nourishment.
That's why indigestion often causes
eye weakness, brain flag, palpitation
