MAKERS ARE NOT TO
RAISE PRICE OF SHOES
National Association Declares Competi.
ton Too Fierce to Do

New York, Jan. l0.--0ffcials Of the
National Boot and Shoe Manufacturers
association, meeting in their annual con
vention here yesterday, declared no dis
cussion OF proposals for raising the price
of shoes would be entertained at the
present sessions Three hundred repre-
sentatives of the big shoe manufacture
ing firms are in New York for the gath
ering, which has for its object "the
discussion of ways and means for cor
recting the abuses in the trade"
According to statement by officials
OF the association, the idea Of shoe
trust is 'preposterous." The statement
explains:
"Shoe manufacturers would not raise
prices if they could, and they could not
If they would. Competition is too fierce
in the shoe business to attempt to con-
troll prices. Our organization never has
raised the price of a shoe, and it never
will. 1t is a fact that no matter how
materials have risen in prices cor
responding increase has never been OBJ
tanned in the selling price of shoes. The
shoe manufacturers have always gotten
relief by the exercise of various econ
omies"

PAYS $3.50 FOR RARE
HOE LIBRARY BOOK
A London Connoiseur Purchaser of A.
Kempis' Limitation of

New York, Jan. l0--Bibliophiles and
dealers from all the world started Mon
day to bid on the second part of the
great library of the late Robert Hoe,
and when the gavel of the auctioneer
fell at IL o'clock that night they had
assimilated $64 ,59l worth of it. The aft
ernoon session yielded S9,469; the even
ing session sos, l22.

were, it was thought by the experts he
had not paid extravagant sums Mr..
Quaritch gave the highest price of the

This is believed to be the highest ever

1t became known Monday evening that

NEW HAVEN DEAL OPPOSED.
Rutland Railroad Minority Stockholders
Will Protest Against Transfer.

New York, Jan. l0.-Fair sailing will
not be encountered by the deal to trans.
fer the control of the Rutland railroad
from the New York Central to the New
York, New Haven & Hartford.
The public service commission yester-
day heard at Albany the protest of mi.
nority stockholders against the project
Mr., Delevan's circular to stockholders
upon the subject was as follows:
1T appears that the price at which
the controlling stock of your company
is being turned over to the New Haven
is about Sl06 share, although Rutland
railroad stock sells in the market at $40
a share 1t is the purpose of counsel for
the committee to oppose before the pub
lie service commission the granting of
authority to make the transfer to the
New Haven, except upon condition that
the minority stockholders be accorded
fair treatment. A vast number of in
stances of unfair division of joint rates
have been testified to. 1t is obvious that
with fair treatment Rutland railroad
could pay substantial dividends to its
preferred stock"
The committee demands that before
of the road New York Central
should make an accounting to Rutland
who claim 1897 per cent
of accumulated dividends.

MOVE TO EXCLUDE EVIDENCE.
Packers Lawyer Asserts Pratt's Testi
mony Is Unproven.

Chicago, Jan. l0--Jerome II. Pratt
veteran employee of Armour & Co, be.
gan his third day on the witness stand
yesterday. when the trial of the ten
Chicago packers charged with operating
an illegal combination in restraint of
trade was resumed yesterday morn
ing.
At the opening of court, Levy Meyer,
representing the Swift group of defend
ants, moved to have excluded from the
record all the letters and papers pro-
duced by Pratt and all the latter's tes-
timony on the documents on the ground
there had been no proof. Pratt acted
under direction of the defendants in the
transactions described.
Mayer read from the indictment to
show the defendants are charged with
knowingly operating a combination in
restraint of trade.
at is an axiom in criminal law that a
defendant cannot be found guilty of an
offense committed by another unless the
defendant directly and consciously par.
ticipates in the crime" said Mr.. Mayer,
who cited a number of United States SUI
preme court decisions.

ENGLAND FACES STRIKE
OF ALL COAL MINERS
Vote Now Going on Expected to Result
in Men Quitting Work; Ad-
miralty Alarmed,

London, Jan. l0--Strike ballots were
distributed among the coal miners Mon
day night with the expectation that the
result of The vote which is to be an
nounced on ian. Is, will show deter
mination on the part of the men to quit
work. This feeling is clouding trade
and is causing general depression.
1t is reported that the admiralty office
il so sure that colliery strike will
materialize that it has chartered num-
Der of steamships with view to replen-
isbing the coal supply of the British
naval stations all over the void before
the strike can take place on March l..
This is the earliest date for which it
can be fixed.
The admiralty, it is understood fur
Tier, will not only take at once the full
quantity of coal to which the govern
ment is entitled under its contracts for
1912, but viii add more to which it holds
claim under an emergency lieu.
Meanwhile, whatever prospect for a
compromise between the employers and
miners has hitherto existed has van
ished for all practical purposes.
Strikes have occurred at Leicester, in
the hosiery trade, at Bradford. in the
wool trade, and at Carlisle, in the ship
building trade, and other strikes and
lockouts are feared.

BRITISH LABOR HEATED.
No Settlement Reached in Lancashire
Lockout in Wool Trade Expected.

London, Jan. l0.-The English labor
troubles had threatening aspect Mon.
day night A fresh hitch has occurred
at Manchester in the efforts to reach a
settlement between the cotton mill own
ers and the operatives, who were locked
out some days ago in many of the Lam
cashire mills. Instead of the expected
compromise, it is reported that affairs
have reached a deadlock. Only Sir
George Askwith's persuasion induced the
masters TO adjourn the conference again
Monday. In the meantime small strike
of 500 wool combers at Bradford is
expected to develop into lockout OF
10000 combers, and fears are increas-
ing that it will be impossible to avert =

GOV. WILSON'S
BOOM GROWING
Strengthened by Meeting in
Washington
GOOD POLITICS SELECTION
The People at Home Favor the Gov
ernor-Bryan's Compliments
for Him Attract
Attention,
GOOD POLITICS SELECTION

Washington, Jan. l0,--Woodrow Will
sons presidential boom is about foln
times the size it was when the gov
ernor brought it into town Monday
morning. This is the one important
inference from the meetings here of the
Democratic national committee and the
jackson day banqueters. All Washing
ton is talking over the peculiar comp!i-
ments lavished on Governor Wilson by
William Jennings Bryan at the jackson
day banquet and the intimate friends Of
the Nebraskan who mingled in the crowd
where the national committee was meet
ing plastered up the crevices of the
Bryan position by declaring that Mr..
Bryan knew what he was about in his
treatment of Governor Wilson. Bryan's
prestige was little if at all injured by
his defeat in the committee Monday,
when the committee by an almost 2 to
vote seated Colonel James NJ. Guffey
over Bryan's protest. The committee
had law and technicality on its side and
Bryan had good politics. The incident
was interesting, however, in illustrating
again that Bryan is relying rather on
the people than on the machine. This
also is the basis of the Wilson candi-
dacy, for while the members Of the
national committee have leaned back
wards in their refusal to commit them
selves as TO the presidency, their testi-
mony has been almost unanimous that
Wilson is the favorite candidate of the
people at home. A canvass of the com.
mittee indicates strongly also that good
politics will dictate the nomination of
Wilson if Taft is the Republican candi-
date and OF Judson Harmon If Roosevelt
wins. As a prominent member of the
committee put it yesterday morning.
There is not room in this country for
two radical or two conservative par
ties"
A story has been set af1oat that Bryan
will oppose Wilson ultimately on the
ground that he solicited pension from
the Carnegie trust fund for educators
Wilson's friends pricked up their ears
when they heard it and promptly al
lowed that they expected no opposition
on that score, particularly from gen
tleman who fought sturdily for his legal
rights when a Connecticut admirer died
and left him large sum of money with
which to preach the gospel of reform.
