Separate Labor Department

Washington, February THE bill for
the creation of separate department oil
labor with a cabinet officer at it's head
was taken up in the Senate late to-
day and made the unfinished business In
that body. Senator Borah will attempt
to have immediate consideration given TO
1t within the next few days In the hope
that 1t may be passed before March 4
The bill has passed the House and has
been altered in only minor respects by
the Senate committee. Its approval by
the Senate will undoubtedly mean the
establishment of a new cabinet office be-
fore President-elect Wilson is inaugurated.
The proposed law would transfer many
bureaus now dealing with labor. immi-
grafton and economic questions to the
new department.

MINERS FIRE ON
EXPRESS TRAIN
Serious Trouble in the Cabin
Creek Mining
District

Charleston, w. Va, February T.
Serious trouble broke out again tonight
in the Paint and Cabin Creek coal dis
trict when striking miners fired upon
a Chesapeake and Ohio passenger
train and poured fusillade of bullets
into the town of Mucklow. The train
was kept under almost continuous fire
during the time 1t was travelling half
mile and the engineer and two pas
sengers were struck by bullets.
Mucklow is situated among the
mountains and a rifle fire was turned
into the little town from the 'hillsides.
II is reported TINT a majority of the
houses were pierced but no one hurt.
AT midnight striking miners gathered
rapidly at Mucklow with more coming
in every few minutes. Sheriff Hill
asked Governor Glasscock for troops.
The district legally Is under martial
law, the governors proclamation un-
der which two regiments were sent to
the districts some time ago still being
In force although all the soldiers have
been Withdrawn.
Governor Glasscock said tonight he
would not send troops for the present,
but would take the matter up with the
legislature tomorrow
| government business does not justify
larger balances than have been left there
| in This makes net increase as stated
of $350,00O in the banks. the total amount
in banks being s4s.Too,0oO. and the ad-
| justments are now practically complete"
The plan requires custom and internal
revenue collections to be deposited in ma
tional banks Assistant Secretary Bailey
of the treasury testified that the order
was not designated to concentrate money
in national banks, h,st to increase the
number of depositaries, that the holders
of government checks might cash them
without paying exchange.
Formerly the sub-treasuries had TO
handle nine-tenths of the government
checks eventually said Secretary Bailey.
Now so per cent of the disbursing is
done by depositaries.
Secretary Bailey thought the treasury
ought to keep a working balance of not
| less than 25,0o0.0o0, and that about $780,
100000 should be kept in the national
banks to aid in handling government
business from day to day. At present
the government has a balance of about
s9oOOo,Oo. with approximately S46,oOo,OOO in
national banks.

MUST WEIGH ICE
ON TESTED SCALES
Inspectors Receive Instruc-
tons From State Com
missioner Barnard.

Instructions have been received by
inspectors OF weights and measures
operating in Richmond and Wayne
county TO require that all ice be
weighed on delivery on scales which
have been tested and sealed. The in
structiOnS are issued by H. +. Barnard
state food and drug commissioner.
Commissioner Barnard has also in
structed all inspectors TO require that
the customers be delivered the amount
OF ice for which the ice wagon must
weigh each cake of ice Immediately
prior TO placing it in the ice box and
charge for that weight.
Mr.. Barnard calls attention TO the
following section in the weights and
measures law:
All commodities shall be sold by
standard weight or measure. Any per
son, firm or corporation, who by him
self, or by mis- servant, or as the ser
want or agent of another violates the
provisions of this section shall be
guilty of a misdemeanor and shall be
punished upon conviction by a fine Of
not less than ten dollars nor more
than one hundred dollars, to which
may be added imprisonment in the
county Jail for not more than three
months, upon first conviction, and up
on second or subsequent conviction,
he shall be punished by a fine of not
less than twenty-five dollars, nor more
than five hundred dollars, to which
may be added Imprisonment in the
county jail for not more than six
months"
Mr. Barnard has also instructed
such inspectors to allow the use of the
coupon book in payment for ice only
when the unit check is five pounds or
less.
The practice heretofore frequently
followed of selling coupon books con-
tanning twenty-five and fifty pound
checks is fair neither to consumer nor
ice man." says Barnard and makes it
impossible for either party to get or
give full value. Delivery men and dri-
vers should be instructed to take
checks in units of not more than five
pounds to the nearest weight shown
| by scale at the time of delivery. That
is, if fOrty-seven pounds of ice is de-
livered, checks to the amount of as
! pounds should be taken; if As pounds
of ice is delivered, checks to the
amount of so pounds should be taken ::
if 50 pounds of ice be delivered so
pound checks should be taken; if SO
pounds, SO pound checks.
In ordering check or coupon books,
or in arranging for next seasons bus
/ mess, please see to it that these in
stluctions are carefully complied with
to the end that the business of hand
ling ice may be conducted on the same
lines as those followed in the case of
other commodities"

Dissatisfaction with the heat from

squad will have it's hardest fight
against the DePauw bunch for the
Methodists are the secondary cham
pions of the state. Odds on the game
are two to one IN favor Of DePauW.
Those faVoring the Quakers realize
hat the Yellow and White team can
never defeat the Methodists in straight
line football, but on the other hand
there is no telling just what may hap
pen until the contest ends.
The Quaker squad viii be at it's
strongest, as all the seasoned men,
except Williams, will be in the lineup.
thornton, the George town (Ill) half
back, who was out OF the game last
Saturday because of scholarship, will
take his place behind the line against
the DePauW squad. Williams, the
husky fullback, has not been able to
put up the game he should for the
Yellow and White squad owing to a
sprained ankle, and his absence has
been felt along the line. Thornton
and Trueblood will be switched to all
the fullback position.
No Change in Line.
The line which Coach Reagan will
take to Greencastle is the same as
has participated in the majority Of
this seasons games. ThistlethWaite
the charging tackle, will be the strong
link in the Quakers' offense. 1t is
likely that Thistlethwaite will be given
the position of right tackle on the all
state team.
The scrubs were given their fnal
discharge papers yesterday after prac-
tice. Coach Reagan will not send his
players into scrimmage this afternoon.
