Witness at Salem Attacks De-
PENDANT.
SAYS ITALIAN WAS IN CROWD
This Was When Annie Lopizzo Was
Killed-0thers Testify That Ell
tor Tried to End the
Strike.

Salem, Mass, Nov. 1.-Two surprises
came in the Ettor, Giovannitti and Ca
russo murder trial yesterday, when
Thomas Kanda testified he saw the de-
PENDANT, Joseph Caruso, stab Policeman
Benoit in the back during the riot in
which Anna Lopizzo was killed.
| He also said he saw Policeman Mar
shall there with revolver in his hand.
Kanda positively identified Caruso as
Benoit's assailant and said he kept the
knowledge of the stabbing quiet so long
because he did not want to testify.
| His statement that he saw Marshall
with a revolver drawn created surprise
because the policemen at the riot have
declared they did not draw revolyers.
Caruso himself took the stand and de-
MED he was near the scene Of the riot.
and declared that while he was in Law
renee Jail officers had tried TO fasten
other crimes on him.
| Harry G. Wiggin, comptroller of the
American Wooden company, appeared
yesterday, as the first representative of
the employers called by the defence.
Frederick L. Atteaux, head of chemi-
cal company, who rs under Indictment
for conspiracy in connection with the
dynamite planting case in Lawrence,
also testified, both telling of peace con-
ferences during the strike.
Wiggin, who was present at confer
ences attended by Ettor and other strike
leaders, testified that Ettor at all con-
ferences expressed a desire to settle the
strike.
AT conference in Boston January 26,
Mr. Wiggin said President Wood asked
Ettor what the demands of the strikers
were.
'Ettor said that they wanted 10 per
cent increase; adjustment of the pre-
MUM system and time and half for |
overtime"
Il remember" continued Mr.. Wiggin, |
that Ettor said he regretted it was nee
essary for him to go back to report moth |

difficult to hold his people,

MORE HOSPITALS ARE NEEDED
Situation Improved, but Further Work
10 Needed to Stamp Out
tuberculosis.

Only four states, Mississippi. Ne
vada, Utah and Wyoming, have no
beds whatever in special hospitals or
wards for consumptives. Eight years
ago when the National Association for
the Study and Prevention Of Tubercu
losis was organized, there were 26
states in which no hospital or sanito-
rum provision for consumptives exist
ed, and the entire number of beds in
the United States was only 10000.
While these figures would indicate
a remarkable growth in anti-tubercu-
losis activity" says DR.. Livingston
Farrand, executive secretary of the
National association, in commenting
on the subject, there are still prac-
tically ten INDECENT consumptives for
every one Of the 10000 beds, including
those for pay patients. In other words,
we have from 100000 to 100000 con-
sumptives in this country too poor to
provide hospital care for themselves.
If tuberculosis is ever going to be
stamped out in the United States,
more hospital provision for these foci
of infection must be provided

GOOD NIGHTS SLEEP
No Medicine So Beneficial to Brain
and Nerves.

Lying awake nights makes it hard
to keep awake and do things in day
time. To take "tonics and stimulants"
under such circumstances is like set
ting the house on fire to see if you
can put it out.
The right kind of food promotes re-
freshing sleep at night and a wide
awake individual during the day.
A lady changed from her old way Of
eating Grape-Nuts. and says
For about three years had been
a great sufferer from indigestion.
After trying several kinds of medicine,
the doctor would ask me to drop off
potatoes, then meat. and so on, but in
few days that craving, gnawing feel
ing would start up, and ! would vomit
everything l ate and drank.
When l started on Grape-Nuts, vom-
iting stopped and the bloated feeling
which was so distressing disappeared
entirely.
My mother was very much bothered
with diarrhoea before commencing the
Grape-Nuts, because her stomach was
so weak she could not digest her food.
Since using Grape-Nuts food she is
well. and says she don't think she
could do without it.
1T is a great brain restorer and
nerve builder. for can sleep as sound
and undisturbed after a supper Of
Grape-Nuts as in the old days when
could not realize what they meant by
a bad stomach. There is no medi-
cine so beneficial to nerves and brain
as good nights sleep, such as you
can enjoy after eating Grape-Nuts."
