to be the fault Of his long game.

previous to that time the only appre-
ciable change was in the extreme nor

Roulers is again unofficially reported
to have been occupied by the allies,
but this is not borne out by official
dispatches.
The British troops that advanced
near Armentieres, and the French that
attacked the invaders near La Bassee
have unquestionably suffered heavy
losses, as the Germans in that region
hold strongly fortified positions along
the canal near Douai.
A st. Omer dispatch says that the
Germans in their counter attacks
north of the Ypres-Menin highway on
Friday used their method Of assaulting
in mass formation. They have ap-
parently adopted the method of the
British of charging in extended lines
with plenty of space between the

A KICK ON OIL INSPECTION
Legislature Will be Asked to Change
Law, Making it Compulsory
and Equalizing Fees.

Des Moines, Nov 11.-Now that the
oil companies have forced the state
to stop making inspection OF gasoline
they are now fully satisfied, but are
making overtures to the state officials
for a revision of the law that will
place gasolene and kerosene inspec-
tion on the same basis. The oil in
spection bureau, as every one knows,
has been immensely profitable to the
state. Last summer the oil compan-
les complained and cut off the gaso.
lene inspection, which, as it was
handled, was hardly fair nor in &C
cordance with law; but the only eff,
feet of the change was to help out
the oil concerns with $4,000 a year
or more and to deprive the state OF
just that much revenue. But there
| is actual need of the inspection of
| gasolene, for fraud and deception is
| in vogue regarding this fuel oil, and
only by inspection can there be pro
lection for The public and the honor
able dealers. Therefore the move is
being made for revision of the in
spection law so that lower charge
be made on inspection OF kerosene
and a normal charge for inspection
of gasolene.

AN ALARMING BLAZE
Fire In Rear Of Business Block
Threatens Big Loss.

One of the liveliest and most threa,
ming blazes that has confronted thu
ire department for many Ions
month called out the boys at four o
clock this morning to a barn at the
forth of No. All High avenue west
fhe building, a good sized from struc
,ure, was we'll afire and blazing high
when when the trouble was discov.
cred and the department called. In
few minutes three other barns ad-
Joining, several sheds and out build
ings at the rear of the stores in the
block and one or more dwellings
were ablaze and there was the max,
ing of serious and costly fire. Few
people were on hand at the hour and
the department could rely upon mo
assistance.
Two lines of hose were laid as
quickly as possible and the fire was
controlled in an incredibly short time
considering the head way the flames
had gained before water was thrown.
Considerable damage attends the
fire. The barn was occupied by y. 5.
Hensyl, drayman who loses four
horses, a quantity Of feed, harness
and equipment. Damage to adjoining
properties was considerable Little or
no insurance was carried on any OF
I tho losses
Cause of the fire is not known. The
barn was not locked and it is under
stood that the building has been re
sorted to by drunks. Not long since
the patrol was summoned to the
place to remove an intoXication case
That the fire was the result Of inten'
is not charged. Mr. Hensyl has ne
enemies to suspect. The fire lads are
to be commended for the sharp anc
decisive fight they put up against
odds. They we're short of equipmen
for a big fire and while all men were
out the department needed help. Coco
fortune also favored them. Wha
wing was blowing at the time tool
the heat and the flames in one direc
ton to cause the least trouble. Will
a heavy wind from the north results
would have been different.

Fort Madison, Ia, Nov. 11.-Tiring
of the monotony of being good at the
prison, one of the onvicts, James
Canes thought the guards needed ex'
ercise so he took to the wods and is
even yet hiding in and about them.
At the noon hour he was assigned
to Guard Hanson's gang Of men en-
gagged in doing work at the brick yard
north of the prison. He took very
short time to size up the situation and
having evidently determined to hot
foot at the first good opportunity, he
seized the chance when the guards
eyes we're turned In another direction
and hiked for the bushes. His absence
was noticed very quickly, but the
guards lost some time in making sure
which direction he had gone, and by
the time they got fairly on the trail
he had sought hiding place. Il.
The prison authorities believe that
he will be apprehended within a few
days, and surprise is expressed by
them that he ran away inasmuch as
his time was due to expire next June.

FIGHT MADE FOR YEARS PROM
IsEs VICTORY IN FUTURE.
MUCH OPPOSITION AT PRESENT
older Leaders Believe Labor Best
Serves Interests Keeping Out of
Politics, More Radical Say Time
is now Ripe for Organization.

Philadelphia, Nov 1.-THE consid-
Grafton of resolutions covering every
conceivable proposition affecting or
ganized labor occupied the attention
of the American Federation of Labor
to-day. None of the resolutions were
of a character intended to result in
any serious differences of opinion.
In accordance with a time honored
custom, the resolutions committee
deferred action on the more import
ant questions until next week, when
the new delegates will have had time
to become acquainted and there will
be less bitterness in debate than at
the present time. ........
Labor Political Party.
The fight which has been made by
certain delegates for the last few
years for the organization of labor
political party has only slight
chance of being won at this session.
1t is already plain, however, that
many men who in the past opposed
such plan have seen light and
that labor party in the United
States is sure very soon.
Older leaders oppose such action
believing that labor best serves its
own interests by supporting such can
didates as are favorable to it., re-
gardless of party.
The radical members and especial
ly those from the western states in
sist that this plan has had a fair
tryout and has proven a failure,
pointing to Michigan, West Virginia
Colorado and similar states as indi'
eating that as rule present day of
fice holders are opposed to organ
lied labor.
Were the socialist members to vote
with the advocates of the plan, they
would be more than enough to carry
the proposition through, but the so
Cialists oppose the plan which is
naturally in opposition to their move
ment and are likely to be lined up
with the conservatives.
Industrial Unions.
The question of industrial instead
of crafts unions is also certain to
result in debate. James F. Morris
of the Illinois State Federation OF
Labor has introduced a resolution
changing the present method of or
lganization. This resolution Is back
ed by several international bodies
who feel that the unions would be
stronger were they formed on tho
basis of the Industry rather than the
craft
