Sees PROHIBITION WAVE
sweeping ACROSS Land

The Rev. George A. Cooke, pastor of
Wesley M. e. Church, preached a
stirring sermon last night from the
text "Woe Unto Him That Giveth His
Neighbor Drink"-Habakuk q; 15.
Pastor Cooke said in part.
THAT this refers to strong drink is
clear from what follows in the same
verse, 'Maketh him drunken also. This
makes It plain that the Judgment of
God rests upon any and all who are Ia
any way responsible for putting strong
drink to the lips of his fellow men.
This applied to the voter who votes
for It, the retailer who hands It over
his bar, and the brewer or distiller
who manufactures It. II applies to
Wilmington, Delaware, as truly, as
Il did the Jews in the days Of the
prophet.
There are two ways of fighting the
liquor traffic; one Is by moral sua-
sion, by appeals to the drunkard, and
the tippler 70 abstain for his own sake
and for the sake Of his family. The
other is by the passage of laws CAL
culated to cripple and destroy. the
traffic. To succeed in the fight. both
methods must be used There are
many signs that a prohibition wave is
sweeping over the country The peo-
pie are making up their minds to de-
stroy the liquor traffic. The argument
OF personal liberty must go down be-
fore the argument of public welfare" 4"
Mr.. Cooke paid high tribute to the
citizenship of Delaware. mo state in
this union has finer class Of people" Z"
he said. 1T is time for the God-fear-
ing men and women 10 arise in their
might and swing this grand old Dia
mond state into the dry column. There
are signs Of progress. The liquor deal
ers are getting nervous. They are or
ganizing here in Wilmington in self
defence. Evidently they see the hand
writing on the wall"
Mr.. Cooke read extracts from the
report OF a meeting held last week by
the Delaware State Liquor Dealers
Association, in which it was shown
that the liquor dealers are pushing
hard for a powerful organization to
protect their own interests. "Next
meeting they are to form a law and

are turning patriotic and will demand
that their own members keep within

be at handl
u would suggest to the liquor deal
ers' association that there is a better
way for them to show their interest in
the community. Let the brewers close
down their business and turn their
breweries into factories. Let the sa-
loon keepers turn their saloons into
places of legitimate business. What
would become Of the brewers big

FIRE DAMAGED STOCK
TO Be Offered AT sale

The stock that was damaged by the
fire that occurred at the Ogden
Howard Company's warehouse, No.
3, on the night of June IL, has been
sold by the insurance companies to
the Salvage Company, of Michigan
II was a difficult matter to arrange.
az It was hard to get a concern to
handle such a large stock Of furni-
ture, bedding and floor coverings Of
all kinds. amounting to $4,000. Al
though this concern is capable OF
handling this immense stock. it was
their intention to send it to one Of
the large cities in the west, where
they have a number Of large stores,
and dispose Of 1t there.
Here is where the Ogden-Howard
Company asserted themselves for the
people Of Wilmington, by demanding
that the sale should take place here,
SO that the people of this city and
vicinity should be given the oppor-
tunity OF the great savings to be had
on stock that they know Is of a
reliable sort and was damaged only
slightly by smoke and water
The generosity OF the Ogden-H How
ara Company was shown when the
Salvage Company claimed that they
could not get a building suitable to
conduct the sale and the local con-
cern, TO make sure that it would be
held IN this city, consented to give
the use of the enormous sales rooms
al Fifth and King streets, for ten
days.
The deal was therefore consummated.
The Ogden Howard Company will
hold sale on their regular stock
during the coming week, so as to
make room for the fire stock. This
company wants 1t understood that
none of their regular goods will be
offered In conjunction with the FIRE
sale. The manager for the Salvage
Company today would give no other
information except to say he will
give information through the daily
papers when the sale will be held.

some CONDUCTORS
TO GET VACATIONS
Pennsy Men Who Are In
der Old Rates Of Pay Re-
tain Privilege
APPLIES ONLY TO THE
PASSENGER SERVICE

Some misunderstanding has cropped
up over the announcement that some
Pennsylvania railroad conductors and
trainmen will no longer enjoy the priv
ilege Of vacation with pay. An official
Of the company, TO clear away the err
roneous impression, today made the
following explanation;
"For number of years passenger
conductors on the Pennsylvania rail
road, approximately 1000 Of them east
Of Pittsburgh, haye been given vacations
Of two weeks with pay. When the
award was handed down in the recent
arbitration between tie railroads and
the conductors and truinmen, article p
provided that conductors and trainmen
IN any class Of service could not com
bine the new rates of pay with old con-
ditions Of service that were better than
those provided for in the award. In
other words, the conductors and train
men were instructed by the award to
decide whether they desired the new
rates and accompanying conditions. or
the old rates and accompanying condi-
tions.
Following the award the Pennsyl-
vania railroad announced to its conduc-
tors that those who elected to receive
the rates Of pay provided by the arbi-
traitors, could not also have the two
weeks vacation with pay Vacations
with pay will still be given to those
passenger conductors who choose to
work under the old rates of pay.
This vacation with pay is what is
known among the men as feather.
bed They win be found in some form
or other in nearly all of the railroad
wage schedules. Vacations with paw
for conductors on our railroad are not
based on length of service or anything
else, and are only applicable to ras-
senger conductors. Why and how this
came about is something that can pos
sibly be explained by the general man
ager who made the wage scale providing
for it,"

new Mexican President
is The STUMBLING BLOCK

BY The United Press.
NIAGARA FALLS, Ont, June %
Efforts to patch up the tottering medi-
ton program we're made today The
A. B. G. mediators met with the
American delegates and believed that
later in the day they might have a
full conference.
Modified proposals for settlement Of
the Mexican embroglio were sub
mitted by the A. B. G. group. Selec-
tion Of a provisional president-the
snag in the proceedings-w tempo
rarily laid aside. Consequently. the
proceedings looked more hopeful than
at any time for more than a week
Ambassador Naons plan today was
based on his own ideas, coupled with
suggestions he CLEANED in Washing
ton from President Wilson and SecreA
tary Bryan Carranzas reply, reiter-
ating his refusal to agree to an armis-
tice, was expected today, but the me-
diators were prepared to ignore fur
ther communications in this tenor.
There was prospect, however, that
rebel delegates would come here for
further talk with the American dele
gates, thus having a semi official rep
resentation in the conferences. The
A. b. G. group and the American
delegates were more confident today
that the rebel difficulty would be
swept aside in a solution satisfactory
to all parties.

JOHNSON'S TRAINERS PUT
HIM THROUGH TANGO STUNTS
By The United Press.

BY The United Press.
PARIS, June 22.--1f Jack johnson
whips Frank Moran, he personally
can take all the credit for getting in
to condition, fight fans today agree.
The reason, they said, was that John
son has bunch of French trainers.
whose fighting Is "a Turkish bath
tango. or standing massage" They
are afraid OF him. They confine their
efforts to running and gymnastics
chiefly.
Moran reported today "plenty of
work and absolutely no worry" Jack
sons condition is variously reported.
but most OF the fans agree he Is
working off his paunch and doing a
heavy training stunt. They believe.
however, that inroads of dissipation
may tell on the black giant, and that
Moran may whip him If he can stand
johnson off for ten rounds.
