Naming The Baby.

She ransacked every novel,
And the dictionary, too,
But nothing ever printed,
For her baby's name would do;
She hunted appellations
From the present and the past,
And this is what she named him
When they christened him at last
Julian Harold Egbert
Ulysses Victor Paul
Algernon Marcus Cecil
Sylvester George McFall.
But after all the trouble
She'd taken for his sake,
His father called him Fatty
And his schoolmates called him Jake

But a man who rushes the growler is
never in hurry himself.
A thirst for liquor beats an umbrella
for keeping some men dry.
Man proposes, woman accepts-and
the neighbors all say: 81 told you sol"
A man never knows what he can do
until he tries-and if he is wise there
are lot of things he will not try.

Old Poems ReWrit

There was ease in Casey's manner
AS he stepped into his place.
There was pride in Casey's bearing,
And a smile on Casey's face.
No uniform distinguished him,
But all along the street
They knew he was a copper by
The size of Casey's feet.

mentioned, the representations in
Great Britain are based on the state
ment of the British foreign office JUS
tifying the use Of neutral flags by her
merchantmen to oSescape capture. The
American government points out how
frequent the use of the strategy might
be the cause of serious results to
American ships on the high seas.
In the note to Germany. it is un-
derstood that the United States asked
how the German admiralty proposed
to carry out in practice Its recent pro-
clamation Of war on merchant ships
and it's warning that on account of
the misuse Of neutral flags by bellig-
erent vessels neutral ships could not
always be distinguished when an at
tack was made. The introduction of
the submarines into warfare produces
a situation not covered by any exist
ing declaration Of international law,
but the United States has made it
clear, 1t Is understood, that an attack
on a vessel flying the American flag
without at first ascertaining definitely
that such was fictitious could not but
be viewed gravely by the American gov
ernment and bring about serious COM
plications.

BRITAIN PLANS REpRIsAL.
Government to Take Stringent Meas
ures Against Trade Of Germany.

ures Against Trade Of Germany.
London, Feb. 11.-Premier Asquith,
in an announcement made to the house
Of commons this afternoon said, that
the British government was about to
take more stringent measures against
the trade Of Germany.
In reply to question from Admiral
Lord Charles Beresford whether the
government will place all food and raw
material used in German industries ON
the absolute contraband, the premier
said:
THE government is considering the
question of taking measures against
German trade in view Of the violation
by the enemy of the rules Of war. I
hope shortly to make an announcement
of what these measures are to be-"
Little Prospect Of Peace.
"The recent public utterances in
Germany give no reason to suppose
the purpose in view will be prompted
by adopting the course suggested" was
the answer Of Sir Edward Grey, the
British foreign secretary, to question
in the house Of commons when asked II
owing to the great loss Of life Great
Britain was willing to declare the basis
on which the allies could declare
peace.
Dealing with the food question in the
house of commons this afternoon, Pre-
mier Asquith said that determining
factor in the price of wheat was spec
ulation on the New York and Chicago
markets. He said these markets were
in "jumpy' condition. He anticipated,
however. that this fever of speculation
would abate after June.

Commerce Commission De-
cisiOn Favors Transc0n-
tinental Lines.
MAY NOW COMPETE
WITH CANAL TRADE
Permitted to Establish Certain Com
modify Rates From Eastern Points to
Pacific Coast, Lower Than Those to
intermediate Points in Inter- N oun-
tain Points-RuIins Beneficial to
Chicago Territory.

Washington, Feb. 11.-To meet new
traffic conditions which have arisen
since the opening of the Panama canal,
the interstate commerce commission to-
day permitted transcontinental rail-
roads to establish certain commodity
rates from eastern points to Pacific
coast terminals. lower than those to
intermediate points in inter-mountain
territory.
This explanation of the order which
brings into prominent notice the revo-
lutionary effect of the canal on trans
continental traffic, was made at the
commissions headquarters:
Under the original in the inter-
mountain case, carriers were required,
from the Missouri river westward not
to charge more to inter- mountain
points than to a Pacific terminal. From
Chicago to inter mountain points the
excess charge permitted over the rate
to the Pacific coast was per cent;
from Pittsburgh, Is per cent; from the
tlantic seaboard, 25 per cent.
Carriers in Serious Straights.
THE shrinkage of rates from New
OTk VIII tue CcIlldl u S3dIl II TdIClSCO,
put the transcontinental carriers in Sc
rious straigf1ts. On certain heavy COM
modities largely moving by water, II
the carriers reduced their rates to the
Pacific to compete, a serious shrinkage e
in thru earnings was inevitab BILE. In ad-
dition to this loss on thru revenue the
carriers would have to take a double
loss on revenue to inter mountain
points, because the inter mountain
rates would have to be lowered and be-
cause the percentages over the terminal
rates would have been calculatd on a
lower basis.
Chicago Territory IL Benefited.
Had no additional relief been af-
forded on inter-mountain rates. an
abandonment of much rail carriage e
from Atlantic sea board territory was
imminent and had relief on inter-
mountain traffic not been granted
there was reason to think the Atlantic
seaboard in future would have supplied
by water the Pacific coast the COM
modities in question. and many in
dustries in the Chicago territory would
have lost their Pacific customers or
would be compelled to migrate nearer
the Atlantic seaboard. The net result
of the greater relief is that industries
in the Chicago and middlewest section
will continue In the business of sup
plying customers on the Pacific

PLUMBERS TRIAL
TO LAST MONTH

Government Has More Than 100 Wit
nesses to Examine IN Anti Trust
Suit-Federal Records Introduced as
Evidence.
Des Moines. Feb. 1.-THE introduce
tion of government records by B. F..
Welty, a special assistant 20 the attor-
ney general, was to be continued today
in the trial of thirty-six master
plumbers, charger with violation of the
Sherman antitrust law. whose case
is being heard by Justice Pollock.
w. Emmett Crosby, of Philadelphia,
executive clerk of the National Asso-
citation of Master Plumbers, was still
on the stand for purpose of verifying
the records introduced by Mr.. Welty.
Attorneys were agreed today that the
case will likely consume the greater
part of a month in it's trial. The gov.
ernment has more than 100 witnesses,
and the defense has about an equal
number.
Objection by the defense's counsel to
the reading by government counsel of
excerpts Of speeches made at national
or state conventions and remarks Of
individual delegates to the conventions,
was overruled by Judge Pollock in to-
days session. 1t became evident that
the case is to be fought bitterly. The
court was obliged to intervene in
clashes of attorneys several times.
Mr.. Welty continued the reading of
the governments records. A letter
from the Brooklyn association pur-
ported to show the plumbers had used
force to drive Independents away from
that City.
In another record it was shown an
infant Chicago firm had sold an sS7
bill Of goods to an independent plumber
and later had been forced to write the
organization a letter of apology.
Another letter showed "a system of
boycotting" seemed the only way out
for the plumbers if they would pro-
tect themselves.
