Railroads Turn Down Demands.

RAILROADS Iurn Down DemanoS.
New York, June 16.-The railroad
managers today notified the heads Of
the four railroad brotherhoods of en-
ployes that they could not meet their
demands for an eight-hour day and
time-and-a-half for overtime work.
They proposed arbitration as solu-
ton of their difficulties, or submis-
sion Of the dispute to the Interstate
Commerce Commission.
This was the final answer given by
the railroad men after nearly two
weeks of discussion in joint confer
ence with the brotherhood heads, and
probably means that strike vote of
employees will be taken.
A. B. Garretson, head of the con-
ductors' organization, announced on
receiving the railroads answer that
the arbitration proposition was not
acceptable and that the proposition
to submit the matter to the Interstate
Commerce Commission was impracti-
cable, because the body had no power
to settle the dispute.

Americans arriving from Sonora

because of the monetary situation
which has developed since the new

Clerk Hubbard.

County Clerk H. B. Hubbard Is not
inclined to be over-enthusiastic about
the new law requiring all who practice
optometry in Rock Island county to
register at his Office Not that he has
any objection to the provisions Of the
measure, but because all the county
gets out of 1t is a fee Of 25 cents for
each name, and to date eight have
filed certificates, so that the munifi-
cent sum of 81 has been collected
from applicants, while the registry
book which is required for the work
cost about S.. Mr.. Hubbard thinks
that with three or four more entries
the entire list of "eye doctors" in the
county will be chronicled, for that at
this rate it will take perhaps a score
,, Of years to pay even for the price of
the book.
What Law Provides.
The new law, which went into effect
Jan 1, provides THAT the practice of
optometry is defined to be the employ
ment of any means other than the use
of drugs, medicine or by surgery for
the measurement of the power OF
vision and the adaptation Of lenses for
the aid thereof"
Anybody already practicing may Sc
cure registry inside of three months
from Jan. 1, for S. fee paid to the
state, in case he has been in business
three years. Those who fail to take
advantage of this provision must take
an examination later on. The fee in
| this case is $40 The certificate of reg
istry must be displayed in the place OF
| business and when away from home
such a practitioner must have a re-
ceipt for sales of glasses, showing his
| registry number.

Watch, But Timepiece is Found
on Him BY Police.

When Emile Bope accused a wo-
man in a saloon at Ninth avenue and
Ninth street last night of having
stolen his watch there was a battle.
Police were called.
When Bope was searched at the

tempted the ruse for his own financial
gain.
Bope lives in East Moline and was
with Vic Seys, friend, at the time.
The two had been drinking for sew
eral hours in the saloon. The woman,
whose name the police did not know,
was with the men when Bope first &C
cused the woman people in the sa-
loon took the matter as joke, but the
East Moline man was so firm in his
charges that others soon realized
that he was serious.
A fight occurred and officer Lib

COTTON INDUSTRY
American Manufacturers Trade With
China Completely Shut OH By
Orientals.

Washington, Jan. 2S.-Japanese
manufacturers have captured the
American cotton goods trade in China
completely, says department of COM
merce report issued today, that all
hope of renewed American business
lies in an entire change of the class
of goods manufactured for oriental ex-
port.
Ten years, the report declares, has
seen American cotton goods sales
dwindle in China as the Japanese
business grew. Now, American mills,
it says, hopelessly distanced by the
Japanese, either must extend their
trade by selling another class OF
goods at the expense of England or
dismiss hopes for further Chinese bus
mess.
Increasing cost Of production in
! England because of the war, the re-
port says, has created an opportunity
| for American mills to introduce into
China lines of cotton goods they here
tofore have not sold. Sheetings and
drills, formerly sold, must be left to
the Japanese and to new Chinese mills
built and building. China for many
years has been the largest market for
cotton goods in the world.
Tables contained in the report show
that from 1902 to 1913, II years, the
Japanese cotton goods trade in China
| increased nine times, while the Amer
lean trade dropped to one-third what
it had been.
Reasons for this as given in the re-
port are better selling and distribut-
ing methods introduced by the Japan
ese and lower prices for japanese
goods, dependent on quality alone for
their sale and with no one to push
/ them, were sold in smaller and smaller
| quantities. British trade has remained
stationary.
The Japanese began, the report
says, by initiating the American pro-
duct in cheaper material. This allow
ed the Chinese dealer a wider margin
of profit and gave the consumer a fab
ric that compared well in appearance
with the American cloth.

10 do, maintaining that the present
homestead fulfilled their needs in ev-

and thaw. Mrs. Du Pew considered
This the last straw and insisted that
they move.
Last evening after supper Mrs. Du

"If We cannot agree, either you or l
