WORK OF BLACKHANDERS
NEAR PENSACOLA

Pensacola, Aug l5,--Mr Will
liam p. Bronson who owns large
mill properties and a good business
at Dolores. ncar Molino, has received
during the past three years a num-
Der of the most threatening black
hand letters, the writers asking for
large sums of money, threatening
the destruction Of property and even
physical violence to Mr.. Bronson,
He did not meet the parties at the
places and times suggested and as
result he has suffered losses to the
amount Of sixty thousand dollars in
five incendiary fires and one dyna-
mite explosion during the last three
years. A few days ago new and
expensive steam shovel was blown
up This followed almost immedi-
lately upon Mr. Bronson ignoring
request for a large sum to be paid

DENIES WAR is REASON
FOR RAISE IN MEATS

Chicago, Aug. 15.-A vigorous
denial that packers have made the
European war an excuse to put up
meat prices was made today by j.
Ogden Armour, president of Armour
and Co., in statement lle said
that the reason for the advances
was that receipts at the stock yards
here for the last two weeks have
been approaching famine basis.
In that time, the statement cX-
planned Armour and Co. have killed
fewer hogs than during any similar
period in the history of the concern.
"The nine Armour plants killed
only ll,73S hogs last week, AGAINST
70,33S head the week before the
war" the statement reads: They
killed only l7,5l2 cattle last week,
as AGAINST 2l,S3G head the week be-
fore the war, and only 30,3ll sheep
last week, as against 1885 head
the week before the war
Mr.. Armour said the packers have
contended with shortage OF live
stock for a year, and lately with the
natural tendency Of the producer to
hold back his stock in hopes Of war
time prices.

exists there. The chief said that
$3.50 was being spent every day In

About 5i5 men are engaged in the
work of eradication. Up to the time

TERRIFIC BATTLE IN
NEXT FEW DAYS

Cincinnati, O., Aug. ia terri
fc battle between the main French
and German armies within the next
two or three days will logically be
BROUGHT about by the present posi-
tions of the convcrging hordcs OF
each nation, Consul Pocioy stated as
his opinion yesterday.
German plans for invasion OF
France have been thwartcG. Time
has been given for the thorough
grouping of the allies The war
forces Of the two nations are NOV
inc near each other, though only
portions Of each have engaged J
do not wish to predict, but it is
natural that movements on tho part
of one or the other Of the armies
will make if necessary to engage
that plans may be carried through
and the conycrgcncc of the armies at
nresonf indicate to me that the en-
aaaomont will be a terrible unleash
inc of rho full war strength OF each
nation one upon the other. Ono army
must retreat, says Mr. Pociey,
"Thc French have advantage Of
the situation since the burden Of the
war is on the invading army The
French have strongholds Of defense,
q line of fortifications and fortresaes
Innon which to fall back on. The
opostion is whether German can
break through the French army and
canture the fortresses. If that can
not bo done, Gemany is whipped, and
might as we'll terminate the war by
going back to her own territory.
The German people will not tolerate
useless slaughter that has marked
tho orening of the war, In 1870 the
French people did not want to fol
low Napoleon. and when the leaders
led to useless slaughter the people
arose and made for themselves a re-
nublic. That will be the result in
Germany should the kaiser and the
powers Of the army continue 10 sac
rifice men without result. The Ger.
man people do not want war, it Is
the greed of the kaiser fer the
French colonies in Africa, the Con
90 and for other selfish gains that
has brought about the strife. The
people will rise up and declare a re-
public." said Mr.. Pociey.
