aas eA Ga ley, former vice president of

company had entered into a contract with
its rival, the Federal Steel company of
which Judge Elbert II. Gary was presi-
dent, under which the Federal Company
granted the Carnegie company a rebate
of 10 cents ton if the Carnegie COM

"cANNED" FOR LAUGHING

"CANNED" FOR LAUGHING
IL is dangerous for any employee of
julius Rosenwald to pause long
enough from his grind at the Sears
Roebuck plant to laugh.
1t will be remembered that a young
girl employed by Sears-Roebuck
went on the stand before the O'Eara
vice commission and testified, while
sitting alongside of julius RosenwaId,
that a system of slave-driving was
used at his big plant.
She said that men stood over girls
and boys while they worked and
forced them to speed up. Those, who
from exhaustion could not keep up
the pace, were fired.
Thursday one of the bosses en-
ployed at Sears-Roebuck. heard two
young boys laugh. They were imme-
diately fired.

positively that the child labor evil

To this Nelson replies: LET me

nor do the records of this department
substantiate the statement contained
in the alleged interview. On the con-
trary the records show that during

in the city of Chicago alone last year,

McCallsburg, Aug. At about 4
o'clock the people on the street were
surprised by seeing a large volume OF
smoke emerging from L. II. Bakkas
barn north of his residence, on West
Main street. A general alarm was Civ
en-, and il was but very short time
until crowd had gathered, and COM
menced to flight the flames in order to
keep it from spreading to the neigh
boring building. otherwise there is nc
question but that the whole business
street would have been entirely de-
stroyed
AT the time of the discovery of the
fire it was generally believed by most
of the people present that the fire had
been started By young man who had
for some time been working for Mr.
Bradfeld hauling tile for the county
bitches. since he had been seen by sew
eral persons leaving the building short
ly before the blaze started. but it was
impossible to ascertain mediately as
he could not be located. Later when
he was found and questioned he adj
mitted having set fire TO the building
but would give no reason for so do
ing.
Axel Haugenes, the young man re-
ferred to. is Norwegi who has been
here for about month or six weeks,
having come from Roland where he has
spent most of the time since arriv
ing in the country eleven months ago.
1t is known that he had little diff
Guilty with Mr.. Bradfeld a few days
ago. and 1t is thought that he set fire
to the barn believing that 1t belonged
TO his former employer, who used 1t
to house his horses. 1t is general
belief among the people here that the
fellow is demented. and that he will be
deported or placed in an insane asylum
for safe keeping.
Axel Haugenes was taken to Nevada
in the evening where he was placed in
the county Jail until his case is called
for trial He will then most probab-
~ be placed in an asylum.
The barn at the time OF the fire,
was empty. with the exception OF a
small amount of hay in which the fire
was started. The barn burned to the
ground but was entirely covered by
insurance.
