BIC Strike

AVERTED
Sailors and Firemen Decide
Against Tieup of English
Shipping.
DOCKMEN ALL
FAVOR STRIKE

London. England, May 3O--The move
ment tending toward declaration Of
a national strike received a serious set
back today, when the executives Of the
Sailors and Firemen's union, which is
the strongest body in the National
Transport Workers federation, the or
ganization which would declare such
strike. decided against it. Notices
were sent out by this body that there
would be no stoppage outside Of Lon
don, unless the order were signed by
the secretary Of the union.
This appears to indicate that split
has arisen in the ranks Of the trans
port workers federation, which en-
gineered the big strike Of last year ana
aimed at combining. all the trades IN
ions Of the united kingdom
The secretary of the lockers union
stated early in the day that there
would be an immediate national strike

borers. to be followed by an interna-
tional strike, unless a result favorable
to them was reached at a conference
tomorrow. To this conference the
trades unions viii send their delegates,
although the employers. including the
port of London authorities, have re-
fused TO take any part in it.
The continental workers have al
ready decided to strike said the or
ganizing society, and il is only a ques-
ton Of now confirming their decision
by the international executives"
The employers do not take much no

to get the additional work coming to
them as the result of British strikes

can, an exceptional stellar event near B. C. 6
with which it may be identified
Johann Kepler, in his peculiar genius (for he
showed that the births of Enoch, Moses, Cyrus
Caesar Charemagne, and Luther preceded
by important astrological eyents), led the way in
calling attention to the astronomical phenomena
that preceded the birth of Christ. He pointed
out that there must have been conjunction of
the planets Jupiter and Saturn at about the
time Of Christs birth, and even made few pre-
limnary calculations to prove his case. The con-
junction occurred in the sign Pisces, from time
immemorial identified with the destinies of
Israel. a conjunction in that sign always signi-
fed the rising of mighty master of the
Jewish Such a conjunction of Jupiter and
Saturn occurs once in about 500 years. 1t was,
therefore, sufficiently extraordinary in Keplers
eyes to herald the birth of a Messiah
Not until 1926 was Keplers suggestion seri-
ously considered by astronomers In that year
Professor Ideler of Berlin, computed the posi-
tions of Jupiter and Saturn and proved that they
were actually in conjunction in B. C. His cal
culations showed that they at no time over
Tapped to form a single star, but that they
separated by distance equal to the apparent
diameter of the Accordingly, Ideler had
the temerity to suppose that the wise
the two planets star, because they were
miraculously nearsighted In justice to Ideer
it must be stated that he abandoned his theory
when Encke, in 1881, repeated the calculations
and found that the actual distance between Jupi-
ter and Saturn. when nearest each other In B. c.
7, more than the apparent diameter of the
moon
Apart from the fact that Jupiter and Saturn
were never sufficiently near each other to be
seen as one body, two planets In conjunction
can hardly oe called star. Nor Is 1t likely that
experienced Chaldean astrologers would so re-
gard 1t. Moreover, there were other planetary
conjunctions at about the time. Professor
Stockwell has demonstrated that a conjunction
of Venus and Mars occurred on May Sth, b. G.

Closed Season on Game.

The Clark County Fish and Game
Protective Association, the largest in.
dependent organization of it's kind in
Ohio, will petition the next legislature
to pass law providing a closed sea-
son on quail, rabbits, squirrels and
doves for two years and the members
will ask the state and county oranges
and the gun clubs over the state to
join hands in this movement. This
step is taken because of the scarcity
of game during the hunting season
just closed.

Ohio Ranks Among Foremost.

Ohio ranks foremost among the
states of the nation in the report of
the government bureau of internal
revenue, just published. This state is
mentioned as being third in the manu-
facture of cigars weighing more than
three pounds per 1000, with produc-
ton of 664, ,701, ,917; third in the manu-
facture of chewing and smoking to-
bacco, with production of 42,660,256
pounds; fourth in the volume of cor
poration tax collections, contributing
the sum of $1,962, ,765.SS; fifth in the
production of fermented liquors, hav-
ing produced during the fiscal year of
1912 4,742,6 665 barrels, and sixth in the
amount of internal revenue receipts,
having contributed $23,S6S, 1892. The
report shows a gratifying decrease in
the number of cases of fraud during
the year, excepting alone the practice
of "moonshining" and "bootlegging, -
which seems to continue to increase
in certain sections. With this excep
ton the industry of manufacturing and
selling distilled spirits shows as few
| cases of attempted fraud as any with
which the bureau of internal revenue
has to deal The production of beel
| during the fiscal year 1912 was 62,
1864 barrels, or a decrease Of LOG,
429 barrels as compared with the fis
cal year 1911. The number of brewer
les operated during the year was 1,461
a decrease of 81 breweries, as com
pared with 1911. There was a phe
nomenal increase in the tax paymen
of cigarettes, according to the report
11,239,5S6,SOS having been tax paic
during the last fiscal year, while onl!
9,254, ,251,722 were tax paid in 1911.

new rules DRAFTED
ARE PATTERNED AFTER THOSE
IN USE IN CONGRESS.
Edward w. Hughes Prepares Draft
After Studying Rules of Nearly
Every Legislature in America.

Columbus.-to expedite business Of
legislation, to place every member on
record as to his position on every
piece of proposed legislation, and to
curtail the power of the lobbyist and
at the same time to force real consid-
Grafton of measures are the objects
sought to be attained in new rules for
the Ohio general assembly to be sub
mitted for adoption when the legisla-
ture meets in January.
The rules have as their central idea
the notion that methods of procedure
should look to the death of a bill un-
less it can demonstrate it's merit to
the members. In this regard they pat
tern after the rules of congress.
The drafting was done by Edward
W. Hughes, parliamentarian of the
present house of representatives, un.
der resolution of the Seventy-ninth
general assembly. He has studied the
rules of nearly every Legislative
branch in America, and has sought
to select from each the best Pro
gressive ideas, he says, have been
adopted wherever possible, and
Hughes stakes his reputation on the
proposition that if Gov.-elect James
M. Cox expects to finish with the reg
ular session of the legislature in 60 Of
80 days, as he has frequently declared
he can do no better than to recon
mend the proposed provisions fo
adoption.

Disbursements Of State Crew.

Despite the economies effected in
many departments of the state govern
ment during the present administra-
ton the total disbursements of the
state grew during the year 1912. This
is shown in the report of State Treas
urer d. S. Creamer. In 1911 the total
expenditures, which include univer-
sity common school and sinking fund,
raised by a general tax levy, were
S12,932, ,343.97, but in 1912 they were
$13, ,122, ,1SO.63. The largest reduction
in the year between November 10,
1911, and November 10, 1919, was
made in the state institutions. The
reduction was from $4,455, 1915 to
$500, 0,O66.44, or $535, 5,073.12. The Ohio
National Guard also spent $124,6S1.3S
less than in 1911, while the Board of
Agriculture spent $71,96527 more.
The Board of Public Works spent
1901 ,43S13, or S23,511.56 less than the
previous year. The State Tax Com
mission, with all the work that it has
done, spent only $50, ,455.55, and proba.
