PACKERS ON UNEASY SEAT.
Men Worth Millions Nervous When
Miles Testifies,

Chicago. Jan. 4. - When the name
"W. u. Miles" was called in the Unit
ed States district court here in the
packers trial ten men, every one de
clared to be worth millions and all un-
der indictment, gripped their chairs
and hastily moved toward the witness
stand TO hear what mysteries the for
mer packers manager was to unfold.
Miles for years was general manager
for the Armour Packing company at
Kansas City He has been proclaimed
as the governments star" witness.
1t is even hinted by the defendants
counsel that he for years has been a
government investigator.
He followed Henry Veeder, former
secretary Of the old pool which the
government maintains was the origin
Of the alleged price fixing combine in
fresh meat.
Until the moment Miles took the
stand Attorney Pierce Butler Of st.
Paul conducted the examination Of
the witnesses. Miles, however, he
turned over TO Assistant Attorney Gen
eral James Sheean.
Mr.. Sheean tried to lead from the
witness anything he might know about
papers issued from the offices Of the
old pool when the witness was a mem
Der Of it and at times its chairman.
When Miles began his testimony
spectators leaned forward to catch ev-
cry word spoken. Mr.. Miles turned
his back to the ten indicted men, fac
ing the jury all the time he was on
the stand During a ten minutes re-
cess he remained in the witness chair.
no move or nod Of recognition Of any
of his former associates escaping him.
The attorneys for the government in
sist that Miles is not and never Las
been in the secret service connected
with the case. His testimony is eager
ly looked forward to by all connected
with the case.

Burns Again Accuses Head
of Labor Federation.
B00KWAlTER TOLD OTHERS.
Former Mayor Of indianapolis Cited by
Detective az Passing on Results Of
Dynamiting Probe to Labor
Leaders That lronworkers
Were Guilty. II
B00KWALTER TOLD OTHERS.

indianapolis, Ind, Jan. 4.-The fact
that Detective william j. Burns is in
vestigating the action Of former Mayor
Charles A. Bookwalter in connection
with the destruction of four buildings
in this city with dynamite brought out
story to the effect that Bookwalter
told Samuel Gompers soon after the
explosions occurred that the ironwork-
ers were guilty Of the outrages and
that Gompers thus became possessed
OF the facts that the mayor obtained
through his investigation of the explo-
. sions by the local police and detective
force.
1t also appeared that Bookwalter
soon after became partner in print
ing business which does the work of a
number OF the national and interna-
tional unions.
Bookwalter did not deny when the
story was told to him that he knew or
suspected the ironworkers of causing
the local explosions, and he says he
told number of labor leaders of his
knowledge. but he did not speak to
Gompers on the subject. He denies
that GOmpers is interested in the print
ing business with him or ever has been
or that his company does any work for
the American Federation of Labor.
Mr.. BOokwalter said he had often
discussed the Indianapolis explosions
and the facts brought out in the inves-
/ tigation with union labor leaders in In
dianapolis prior 20 the arrest OF Nc
Namara and had told them that the
ironworkers were guilty. In reply to a
question as to whom he had told about
the facts brought out in the Won
| Spreckelsen investigation he said:
II told every one who asked me about
ii, including some of the labor men,
that the ironworkers had caused the
explosions on account Of labor trou-
/ bles.'
In answer to the question as to when
/ he had told this he replied he had
talked of the matter at the time of the
investigation and subsequently.
The grand jury investigation the dy-
namiting is in session again. AS soon
as the grand jurors disperse Judge An
derson places a guard at the door to
prevent intrusion.

Managers For Wisconsin Senator
Deny He Will Withdraw.
Chicago, Jan. 4. 49, Senator La Fol-
lette's invasion of Chicago was pre-
ceded with an emphatic statement
from his campaign manager that he
will not withdraw from the race for
the Republican nomination for presi-
dent until the gavel falls in the Chi
cago convention that will name the

the La Toilette managers gave to re-
ports that he was considering getting
out OF the race.
Walter L. Houser, the La Toilette
manager and chairman OF the national
Republican progressive committee,
spoke for the Wisconsin senator after
he had conferred with the La Toilette
party leaders in Kalamazoo, Mich.
"Once for ALL" said Mr.. Houser In
his statement, II wish to set at rest
the reports and rumors that Senator
La Toilette will withdraw, or that his
friends will withdraw his name as a
candidate for president Senator La
Follette's name will not be withdrawn
The campaign will continue until the
gavel falls declaring who is the nomi

No Chance For Peace, Fighting VIII

Shanghai, Jan. 4.-There is a general
belief here that fighting will soon be

Shao VI as government commissioner
to the peace conference practically
terminated all negotiations for cessa-
ton Of hostilities. DR.. WI Ting Fang,
the leading Republican commissioner,
has invited Premier Yuan Shih Kai to
come to Shanghai himself and carry on
the negotiations, but nobody expects
the prime minister to comply, and the
revolutionists will certainly not send
representatives to Peking.

CLEAN EGGS ARE ALWAYS IN
DEMAND AT HIGHEST PRICES
Keep Nests in Sanitary Condition an,
Free From Dirt.

The following press notice hal
been issued by the Department q
Agriculture, Washington, ID. c.:
while there are a few egg prd
ducers who take the best OF care a
their product, the average tarmel
considers the eggs produced on til
farm a by-product and makes ven
little provision for their care, asidl
from gathering them. A large los|
is caused by dirty eggs, the numbei
being enormous, and according
the estimate of Secretary Wilson q
the Department of Agriculture, thu
money loss to the farmers in th|
United States amounting to abol|
$5,0U0,00O annually.
This loss is very largely brougl|
about by not gathering the eggs oil
ten enough. In wet weather mon
dirty eggs are found than at AM
other time. This is caused by tn
fact that the hens feet are ofte|
covered with mud or other filth, AM
in going on the nest to lay she soil
the eggs already in the nest.
AN insufficient number of nests
often the cause of many of the dirt
eggs found. Eggs are laid on III
ground and around the hay an
straw stacks. becoming stained, al
classed as 'dirties.' Again, when I'd
many eggs are allowed to remain |
a nest some are broken and many
the others become smeared wiz
broken yolks. This condition Is oI
ten brought about by allowing III
broody hens to use the same nesI
with the layers. On a farm whet
one nest to every four hens Is prl
vlded and the nests are kept clea|
and we'll bedded, 1t is found tht
very few dirty eggs are produced.
After gathering the eggs, cal
should be taken not to put thei
where they will become heated,
near oil. onions or other vegetable
as they readily absorb odors.
