against present injustice of the Com

tie better off than poems. The de-
mands of the Alaska canneries are
urgent. but enough idle labor is to
be found in San Francisco If the
packers would only pay a fair wage
for the work But they have under
taken to go into the Orient for the
men to run the canneries.
On the rugged coast of Alaska the
packing crews are as effectually i'm
prisoned as in a stockade. For If
they should try to escape there is
nowhere to go. The canneries
only exist on that part of the coast,
and there the Chinese bosses drive

o'clock in the morning, and ends at
8 at night. The Chinese contractors
are supposed to feed them, but the.
willy Celestial knows that he is not
expected to take his contract at
loss, and he gives his men as little
to eat as possible. And if that were
not enough there is a 800 per cent
profit to be made on the food which
the men have to buy in order to
exc out the scanty fare at the COM
pany's tables. An illustration is Civ
en- that a can of condensed milk
costing here about cents wholesale
is sold at the fishing grounds for %
or 80 cents.
AS a result, it is said the men of
the canneries generally come back to.
port with no wages due them after
their bills at the stores are deducted.
Yet the laborers from the islands de-
clared they would take passage for.
Alaska if only they were guaranteed
the fulfillment of the hard terms Of
their verbal agreements.
The contractors can not stand many
more such losses as they have al
ready sustained, and as the officials
of the Packers Association are being
given a most unenviable amount of
distasteful publicity, it is pretty safe
t. assume that future efforts to steal
laborers from the Hawaiian planters
will be few and far between.

BLACK ACCUSED
OF CHICK THEFT
HELD FOR LAcENY FROM BUILD
ING IN NIGHT TIME THIS
MORNING..

Charlie Black, now serving thirty
days in the county Jail for stealing
coal, was accused of the crime Of lar.
ceny from q building in the night time
in police court this morning. Black
lis alleged to have been implicated in
the theft of four chickens from q
chicken house on South Vine street
the same night that he stole the coal.
Dave and Rufe Chesser have been In
dicted by the grand jury for the same
theft. Both accuse Black Of having
committed the robbery, despite the
fact that the feathers Of the birds
were found secreted in Z. stove In Rufe
Chesser's house the day following the
theft.
Black maintains that he knows moth
ing OF the chicken deal and declares
that the Chessers are the guilty par
ties from what has been said to him.
Blacks hearing was set for January IL
when, the grand jury will investigate
his case. His time expires January
6 and the police thought it best to file
the charges against him now. Chief
Deeman states that he believes oil
three men are concerned in the rob-
berry. Chicken stealing under any Cir
cumstances has recently been made Z
penitentiary offense. This charge,
however, is still more serious Al the
theft constituted larceny from . build
ing in the night time.

NIL WAuKEE May
LENCTHEN TRAINS
ACCOMMODATION BETWEEN OF.
TUMWA AND SEYMOUR MAY
~ GO 70 sEWELL

{ Talk is rife in certain railroad
quarters that change in time or at
least in service will soon be made ef-
fective on the Kansas City division OF
the Milwaukee, and that the present
Ottumwa-Seymour trains, Nos. 80 and
"a, will be operated as far south as
Kansas City instead of terminating 1t
Seymour as at present. Nothing
could be learned to confirm or deny
the story at the local division Office
except that Trainmaster H. w. Druen
is in Chicago, presumably going over
the matter with the general office.
The story as told by the Milwaukee
men is to the effect that the crews
that run on No. SO will go to Sewall in
stead Of stopping at Seymour, and lay.
ing up for the night at Sewall, will
continue to Kansas City the next day,
returning to Sewall the same day,
when they again lay up for the night.
This will afford service between
Sewell, Chillicothe and Kansas City
similar to that enjoyed for some time
past between Ottumwa and Seymour.
The return of No. "a will be made
ahead OF No. ~ out of Kansas City
and into Sewall, and will run through
Ottumwa as far as Cedar Rapids. Be-
tween Ottumwa and Cedar Rapids the
trains will be run as Nos. Is and 81
with the same crews. 1t Is not
definitely known when the change
takes place, but it is looked forward
to within the next ten days.

BINCERMAN HAD
IT OQPED WRONG
THOUGHT HE WOULD GET FREE
DOM WHETHER GUILTY OR
NoT-JupGE WOKE HIM UP

Earl Bingerman of Bloomfield, line.
man who came to Ottumwa to cele.
brate Christmas, had the Ottumwa po-
lice court doped out wrong this morn.
ing. He missed Judge Hendershott
by mile. He had formed the opin-
ion that no matter whether he was
tried and found guilty or pleaded gull
ty, 1t would all be the same-he would
be released. Bingerman and girl
of about eighteen, Pearl May Manos,
were arrested together by the police
at house in the East End and were
charged with being inmates OF dis
orderly house. Bingerman was disin.
clined to plead guilty. He asserted
that he wanted to take the best course
tc get out OF Jail that he might go
home and get to work. He had no
money, 80 he said. When asked when
he wanted his trial he stated just as
soon as possible, that he might go
home. The Judge informed him that
he had no money and the evidence
was likely to be. against him, so how
could he get away.
"You will probably stay here and
visit us for awhile, young man." said
the court. Guilty or not guilty do not
mean the same in this court"
When he saw how the cards were
stacked, Bingerman changed his mind
and pleaded guilty. Judge slapped 9
$40 fine on him. Then the Bloomfield
lineman tried another game. He stat
ed that he had no money and that
he would have to telephone to Bloom
field for it or be allowed to 80 home
and send it to the court. But Judge
Hendershott said SO or jail. Seeing
that he could not work it this way,
Bingerman reluctantly went down in
to his shoe and brought forth a crump-
led ten spot. The Judge came near
him for lying but he took
the ten spot and said nothing. Be
cause OF the temporary quarters OF the
SO in Bingerman's shoe, the court
was forced to put the money to air.
The girl pleaded guilty to the same
charge and agreed to pay so fine.
At first she was ordered out of town
but her request for another trial In
Ottumwa, to 60 to work and behave
herself, was finally granted.
