 RIOTINC STRIKERS
lSneciaI frorn united Press.

Especial from United PreSs.)
 Lisbon, Jan. 14-As result of the action of the government, today, in calling out troops to disperse several gatherings of rioting strikers and in arresting a number of Anarchistic speakers, there is great prospect of the railway strike being officially de- clared off within few hours.
 Negotiations between the govern ment representatives, the railway managers and the strikers were re- sufAed, today. The strike committee is willing to accept the railroads terms. for patriotic reasons, but the question will have to be left to the strikers for final settlement. Labor leaders who have been trying to in augurate an industrial strike also took part in today's conference showing an inclination to abandon the general strike movement. A denial was issued today, of the report that the soldiers in the Elvas fortress had mutinied. It is adm tied, however, that the soldiers have demanded increased pay and that the workingmen of Elvas are sup porting them.

JAPAN YIELDS TO JOHN BULL ON
 TARIFF
Especial from United Press.)


 London, Jan. 14-A diplomatic set back for Japan is the view generally taken here, of the tariff concessions accorded England, by Japan. which are now being made the basis of a special commercial treaty. Until within the last few days Japan had refused to treat with England re- garding a renewal of their commercial treaty which expires on July 12, on which day the Japanese tariff goes in- to effect.
 English merchants brought tremen- dous pressure to bear-just how strong it is probably the public will never know-to have Japan recede from hel stand of heavily increasing the duty on practically all the goods that Eng land imports into Japan. Japan held out on the ground that England's free trade practically shut her out of con- sideration on an equal basis with France and Germany.
 While no details of the treaty are published it is said that Japan has yielded on most of the material points

SAVING THE DOLLARS
 WITH THE BUSINESS WAGON

WITH THE BUSINESS WAGON CCharles E. Duryea, Special Techni-
 cal Correspondent for A. l.. A. M.)
 The commercial section of the great double show at the Madison Square Garden which opens Monday night. will present the finest opportunity ev CT given business men to inspect trucks, delivery wagons, large and small, and make the selection tha. will save them money by delivering their goods quicker and at less cost than any other system. Wherever the horse and mechanical power come into competition the horse has to give way. The rapidly rising price of horses and horse feed, the in !. creased cost of living and the demand for more work in a given time and space are all loudly calling for the power transportation service in our cities. The little car pulled by a single mule managed by one man has long disappeared in our progressive cities and the team of two. three and even five horses is fast following.
 The horse is limited in both speed and power. With any sort of load he is. slow. Even if lightly loaded he cXhnot do more than or miles per hour. If heavily loaded this to or miles with frequent rests and re- quirements for attention such as feed, water, DlduhGCllS anu OIu0T ClIne Idk- ing needs not to mention frequent wis., its to the shoer and the veterinary
 But the auto business vehicle has no such limits. For the lighter work, the Brush. Courier and Rec runabouts with 500 and 600 lbs load capacity can speed faster than the horse and con- tinue it hour after hour and day after day without suffering or worry. Slight ly larger are the Buick, Hewitt, Ran dolph, Sampson and other light deliv- cries fitted to the needs of most small CT stores and businesses and specially adapted to the lighter work of even the heavier businesses.
 Jumping into the ton and ton and one-half classes We find the Autocar, Franklin, Garford, Grabowsky. Knox, Mack, Overland, White. Rapid and many others. Still larger and bring ing more goods into the control of a single man are the two or three ton trucks of the Alec, Courier, Reliance,

WHAT TO SEE AT THE AUTO
 SHOW.
 (Chas. B. Duryea, Special Technical
 Cores. for A. l.. A. MI
 In a great gathering of beautiful and we'll made autos such as are sell dom seen together as they are now presented at the great double show in progress at Madison Square Garden, one is likely to overlook the many special features which are we'll wor- thy of attention unless they are spe- cially pointed out by some one who has searched for and found them. The Exhibition Hall to the right of the entrance should not be missed by any visitor for it contains a goodly num- Der of exhibits of rather more than usual interest. There is to be found the Mercedes made by the original Diamler company and therefore des- cendant from the very father of them all. It also shows foreign practice better than most unless the Hotchkiss is included. It's special feature is the use of a differential on the propeller shaft where the strain is less instead of on the rear axle where because of the lower speed the strains are larg- CT. It has two complete ignition sys- tems including two magnetos.
 At the Mercer exhibit is to be seen a
