BUTTON STRIKE
At MUSCAT|Nt
IS ON A GAIN
Workers Decide Not to Re
turn to Work AS At First
Agreed Commissioner
Van Duyn Returns.

Musiatine, April 19.--Work will not
be resumed in the local button factor
les tomorrow pending settlement o.
the difficulties between individual EN-
ployers and the men, the program
agreed to yesterday by both sides.
An official statement issued this aft
ernoon by the union declares that EN-
ployes of the various shops in meetings
this morning decided not to return tc
work pending the arrival in the city Of
Commissioner Van Duyn, to whose ct
forts yesterdays short-lived agreement
was due. Failure of several small shops
to resume operations tomorrow and a
misunderstanding regarding the ma
ture of the agreement presented by
the manufacturers to Commissioner OF
Labor Van Duyn" are given by the
union as the reasons of the action
taken in shop meetings.
The union states that upon the ar
rival of Mr.. Van Duyn an effort to
reach better understanding and ar
rive at settlement Of the difficulties
will be made. Failing in this. the situa
ton will stand where 1t did when the
negotiations with the manufacturers
were broken, March 13.
Urick to Address Mass Meeting.
A mass meeting of the workers will
be held tonight. President Urick OF the
state federation Of labor, will address
the meeting.
The cause Of the renewed break to.
day in the local situation is believed to
be statement, made public this morn
ing in which the manufacturers as
sured their non-union employees that no
men who had remained loyal" to them
during the controverosy would be dis
placed as a result of the agreement
which statement the union men are
said to have considered unnecessary
and an evidence of bad faith.

NAL speech to the president. In re-
ply, President Taft said that tho

state department today from Ambas-
sador Wilson, at Mexico City.
In connection with the delicate
boundary situation, the ambassador

WHITE WAY TO
COVER MUCH

G O m m e rcial Association
Committee to Endeavor
to Secure Great Improve
ment to Business Streets.

A beautiful white way covering all
of the downtown business streets, Is
the goal sought by the electrolier com.
mittee OF the Ottumwa Commercial as:
sociation, the members of which are
now bending all their efforts toward
the accomplishment Of this excellent
Improvement to the city w. f.
Raber, member OF the committee,
is now compiling the cost Of installa-
tion and maintenance Of the white
way and within week or ten days the
scheme will be presented to the prop
erty owners on the streets selected
and to the city council. One Of the
plans suggested and now being
worked out is to replace the present
trolley poles lining the streets on
which the cars run with handsome
combination white way and trolley
posts. The posts will have a cluster
of four or Ave white way lights and
also serve as supports to the trolley
wires. The poles will be placed some
sixty or seventy feet apart and all
the lights are to be burned until mid
night and one on each post all night.
The suggested white way district is
as follows:

ington.
One of the schemes is for the prop
erty owners to pay two-thirds and the
street car company one-third of the
cost of installation. To maintain the
lights, the city will be asked to pay
the same as it now pays for arc
lights.
The committee is composed Of j. K.

Fear OF TOTuddoes.

Washington, May 31-!"Because the
path,is too narrow and the department
cannot tell accurately what townships
1t is likely TO pass over, the Weather
Bureau has decided not to send out
warnings of tornadoes in the future
said Wills l.. Moore, chief of the
Weather Bureau at Washington.
"The Weather Bureau predicted the
st. Louis tornado and at that time saw
the individuality of repeating such
warnings.
"a few days after the tornado hun
dreds of letters were received at the
main office in Washington, telling of
people who had died through fear and
of others who had been i'll by worry al
though they were not near the tornado
he said. "I, therefore, came to the
conclusion that forecasts concerning
tornadoes frightened more people to
death than they saved from death.
"If you see u black cloud in the
southwest that appears to be touching
the earth and hear tremendous noise
you will know ii is tornado.
