WHISKEY CERTIFICATES NOT
LEGAL TENDER, is DECISION.

PITTSBURG, Feb. 4.-Whiskey ware
house certificates issued by distillers,
heretofore regarded as equal to n as
good as government notes. are practi-
cally worthless, as a delivery of the
goods, either actual or constructive, or
for the making of an effective sale or
pledge, according to a decision recently
handed down in the United States Cir
cult Court for the third district.
This so seriously affects the usual
custom of the distiller, of issing certi-
ficates and either selling them outright
or pledging them as collateral for loans
from banks, for the carrying oil of
business, that the utmost efforts are
now under way by distillers to have the
decision reversed.

George Jonas Glass Company

tion-0pinion Filed.
[specIal to the howard star.l

TRENTON, Feb. 4.-Organized labor
New Jersey will be deeply interested in
the opinion filed today by the Court of
Errors and Appeals sustaining the in
junction granted in the Chancery Court
to the George Jonas Glass Company.
restraining the Glass Bottle Blowers
Association OF the United States from
interfering with employees and the
business of the company at Its plant
In Mineola during the protracted strike
among the glass workers In South Jer-
sey which began about four years ago
and lasted for two years. The decision
was announced in November, 1908, but
the opinion was just filed.
Findings of Highest Court.
Because the findings are those of the
court of last resort in New Jersey, and
therefore, Is the recognized law
from his time on, the subject Is of
Importance. The majority opinion was
written by Chancellor Pitney, while
Justice Minturn wrote a minority opin-
ion. The litigation was the outgrowth
of e boycott of the glass works at
Mineola.
The object of the boycott was to COM
pei the company to conform 10 certain
working conditions demanded by the
Glass Bottle Blowers Association. To
get away from the adverse influences
of the methods of the glass workers
organization the company went into the
Court of Chancery, and after a bitter
legal battle the famous and somewhat
sweeping ~chancery injunction was Is
sued.

Open Worlds Series.
Chief Bender Chosen by Mack

BOTH TEAMS FIT.
Regular Lineup Will Start in
First Zig Game.
MerkIe and Flyers Declare They
Are in Condition.

New York, Oct 11-sManagers have
their troubles but the physical condi-
ton of the players probably will be the
least of them in the worlds series Of
1911,'' remarked John McGraw, mana
ger of the New York Nationals, as he
dropped into the clubs headquarters on
Broadway today I'm this respect at
least, the coming games between the
Giants and Philadelphia Athletics will
be unusual for both teams expect to
take the field with their regular l1neups
in fine form.
If the weather clears the Giants will
play Brooklyn a double header today
and the games will be nothing more
than exercise for those whom McGraW
wants to keep on edge. The New YORK
club has no players who will be inca
pacitated from crossing bats with the
Athletics.
ssCharIey Horse and Staleness Gone.
Fred Merkle, first baseman, sprang
Charley Horse last week but has
about worked it off. He said he did not
think it would slow him up much. The
Indian Meyers grew stale toward the
close of the National league season and
McGraw gave him rest Meyers says
he is fit.
McGraw probably will announce the
following batting order for the Giants
on Saturday:
Devore l. f., Doyle 2b., Snodgrass C. f.,
Murray r. f., Merkle 1b., Herzog 3D.,
Fletcher S. s.. Meyers G., Mathewson p.
Reports from the Athletics camp in
dictate that First. Baseman "Stuffy''
McInnes will be back on the bag when
the team meets the Giants. McInnes
received severe welt on the wrist
from a pitched ball in one of the recent
Detroit games. Manager Mack's bat
ting order probably will read as fol-
lows:

BUILD new BAKERY
To Be the Most Modern Plant in the
State.

The transfer was made today for the
plot of ground seventy-five feet by one
hundred and thirty numbers lol-s-li
Vest Tenth street, where the Royd'
ba l5erv, Nose and Sam Alexander pro-
prietors, will erect a two story building,
the entire structure to be arranged ana
equipped for the making of Thoro
Bread and other Royal bakery pro-
ducts.
The building will occupy the entire
plot with two stories and basement.
This will be the third move for TIE
ROYAL bakery, each time to secure
needed room to supply the increasing
demand for their products
we began the bakery business at SS3
Kansas avenue about four years ago
and were making about $500 loaves a
day with an old style oven," said MI
Alexander this morning WITHIN SIX
months we moved here, 617-619 Quincy
street where we erected three modern
ovens and equipment as the case de-
manded to keep up with the bakery
needs. Today we are making seven
thousand loaves daily and in the new
bakery we expect to construct four
ovens, three continuous steam of the
most modern type and one pastry oven
which will give us a 10000 loaf capacity
daily if needed
The Royal bakery, when in its new
home. will have practically all new
equipment if plans are followed. Speci-
fications for the new bakery building
provides for abundance of light and
air. PROBING rooms for the raising of
bread dough will be finished so that an
equal temperature may be maintained
at all times. insuring uniformity and
certainty of products.
we are going in for a strictly san
itary shop" explained Mr.. Alexander,
plenty of light, plenty of room and
strictly modern and new equipment
whereby the entire operation of max
ing bread will be done by machinery
and human hands will not come in con-
tact with the materials except in d
very small degree"
Construction on the new bakery
building will be started within few
weeks, as soon as detailed plans are
completed. The site purchased seems
an extremely favorable location as it
is within seventy-five feet of the ave-
nue. and opposite the new Memorial
building.
The Royal bakery is one of the sub
stantial and progressive manufacturing
of the city, at present employ
ing twenty-five men and a weekly nav
roll of approximately $500.

government of the city and the prefec-
ture.
The province of HUI Peh-a name
which may be translated ''NorthIake"
is considerably larger than England
and Wales put together and has a
population of 100000.
WI Chang and Hankow, as great
trade centers and ports for ocean
steamers, have both felt to a consid-
cradle extent the influence of western
civilization on ideas.
Within the last five or six years both
cities have thrown their idols into the
street or into the river, clearing many
of their temples of priests and all en-
blemS of worship to make room for
public schools. The movement has not
been a religious one, but has been
purely materialistic. The leaders of it.
stimulated by the example of Japan in
adopting western methods of teach
ing. have been seized with the idea
that education is the one thing needed
to make China great.
The outbreak of revolution in WI
Chang appears to have come with the
suddenness of rain from clear skies,
and it can only be taken as an indica
ton of the widespread disaffection
throughout China, The last previous
outbreak Of revolutionary activity was
in the presence of SEE Chueun, five
hundred miles up the river, and it ap-
peared at Cheng Tu, an interior town,
175 miles north of the river. 1t is
noteworthy. however, that Cheng Tu
also is a provincial capital.
Students of Chinese affairs have be-
lieved for a year or more that the
signs pointed to long series of out
breaks which pessimistic observers be-
Iieve will lead to the ACKNOWLEDGMENT
of the empire. The struggle is said to
be in it's essence a test of strength be-
tween the great central government
and the provincial baronies, in this
way resembling the feudal wars of
Europe in the middle ages.

MUlRHEAD is NAMED.
Attorney Generals Relative Alleged to
Have Taken Money.

Concordia Kan, Oct. 11.-Dr. Beach,
the county health officer. fumigated
the Barons house, early last spring.
while the owner, Charles Martin, was
running the house. He presented a bill
of something over hundred dollars to
Martin for the work, which Martin re-
fused to pay. DR.. Beach presented the
claim to the county commissioners for
payment and they refused payment, on
the grounds that Martin should pay it.
NJ. Muirbead, Attorney General Daw-
sons brother-in-law, and the special
representative of Governor Stubs sent
here to do this sleuth stunt for the
governor, stopped at the Barons house
while here, and Martin called his atten-
tor to the matter of the charge against
him for fumigation.
Muirhead told him that for pay
ment to him of twenty-five dollars he
would guarantee that he would not
have to pay the bill. Judge Rigby,
whom Martin has retained as his at

against him by DR.. Beach for the bill.

that Muirhead gave him receipt and
