ARTHUR BURRAGE FARWELL
LIKES CITY HALL CROWD

LINED Vii F1HLE SNOVND
Arthur Burrage Farwell, leading
professional reformer of our village,
has come out as a defender of Big
Bill, Chief Healey and the LuHdin ad-
ministratiOn.
His latest outburst of approval is
his endorsement of Chief Healey's
plans to curb the New Years eve cell
ebration. Yesterday he visited Chief
Healey at his office in the City Hall.
He shocked the chief by praising him
for his work as police chief and his
stand on the New Years eve qUes-
ton. Healey hasn't been used to very
much praise during the past few
months. The shock was almost as
hard to bear as the shock of Hoyne's
rejection.
But Arthur has been a person of
good standing among the Thomp-
sOn-LUndin men for some time. He
was one refOTmer who stuck to Big
Bill, But Farwe1 and the Chicago
Law and Order league have been
rewarded for their constancy.
VIM. F. MulvihiH and Arthur B.
McCOid, two of Arthur's pals who
draw nice salaries as legal guides to
the organized refOrmers of Chicago,
have been taken care of by Bill and
Fred Lundin. Eighteen months ago
they were among the harshest crit
les of the Lundin system of running
the city.
But since then they have been ST.
fenced. And if they do chance to
speak it is to use honeyed words in
their reference to the Thompson
Lundin-O Oscar De Priest machine.
The reason? It's rather hard to
say definitely. But MulVihill was
given a nice fat job in Corp. Coun-
sci Ettelson's Office and Arthur Nc
Cold was appointed attorney for the
Municipal tuberculosis sanitarium
and has used his voice to defend Big
Bill for the treatment accorded the

YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, Jan. 10. - Riot murder and arson held sway in this city Saturday night, when the striking laborers of the Republic Iron and Steel Company, and the Youngs- town Sheet & Tube Company went on the rampage, and scenes of inde- scribable disorder followed. The men are on strike for increased wages, and heretofore have been conducting themselves in an orderly manner, so that the authorities were not pre- pared for the outburst which hap pened at at time when the streets of the city were packed with the Sat urday evening marketers.
 The strikers were assisted in their work of destruction by all the rough CT element of the community. AS near as can be learned the trouble started in a saloon. The place was crowded with drinking men. in various stages of intoxication, when an altercation arose between the bartenders and some Of the strikers, because they had no money to pay for further li- quor. The Lquor was refused them, and they insisted they should have
 {, and on a continued refusal, fight started which ended in general me lee, the saloon being sacked, and af- terwards set on fire.
 The rioters then started out and attacked other saloons in similar manner, drinking the liquor and bra9- dishing the bottles in wild carousals, as they plunged and staggered through the streets. The appearance of the police and fire department only added to the disosder, and soon all most the whole of East Youngstown was a wild mass of raging, Cursing and shrieking men. The police seemed helpless before the mob, and in an effort to disperse the rioters shots

WOMEN V0TERS TURNED DOWN
 BY SENATE

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. - The ad- vocates of woman suffrage received a rude shock Saturday when the Sen ate committee reported favorably on a bill providing for an amendment to the constitution prohibiting woman suffrage. The purport of the measure is not yet fully understood by the women at the suffrage headquarters here, and considerable mystery seems to surround the measure. The women declared that the bill had no chance of being enacted into law, as they felt that there were sufficient congress- men in the House favorable to their cause to prevent the bill from getting the necessary votes.

were fired in the air. This did not affect the men, and the police were almost swept away in a mad charge, which continued to gain headway and aid was summoned from surrounding cities. The flames spread from build ing to building. and the most serious conflagration in the history of the town resulted. The fire is still burn ing, but is now under control, and the police, with the aid of hundreds of deputies, are preserving order. One rioter was killed and about a hundred wounded from the firing by the po- licemen. The property loss from the fire is conservatively estimated at one million dollars. Besides the po- lice and the deputies, several com panies of state militia are now on the scene, and all danger of further trouble has passed Not a single vuilding remains in the business sec ton of East Youngstown.

GERMANY CEOES
 CONTENTION IF ]. 5.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 10. The state department announced officially today that advices had been received from the Berlin foreign office, noti- lying the United States that another phase of the Lusitania controversy had been settled in favor of this countrys contention on the matter. In regard to the sinking of passenger and freight vessels by submarines. the question of assuring the safety of non-com batants had been agreed on, but what constituted an assured two countries widely differed. Ger many asked the United States to agree that the placing of the non combatants in life boats would be considered an assurance of safety. Lansing, for the administration, re- fused to accede to this proposition. and insisted that this was not suffi- cient Germany now admits the strength of the American contention in regard to the placing of non-com- batants in the life boats. The state department is much gratified with this victory. and it is now felt that the final solution of the entire sub marine question with Germany is not far off.

 LONDON, Jan. 10. A- From what is Altering through the official channels at Petrograd, it is believed that a big battle is being fought in the Austrian province of Bukowina. The fighting is centering around Cernowitz, the capital, which has changed hands sev- eral times in the present war and is now held by the Austrians. The Rus sians have continued their strong Of fensiye, and are steadily gaining ground, as the Austrians had not an ticipated such a move in force against their positions. The Russians are

dressed ores can take the haul to the outside. This obviously, is no country over which to transport low grade ores for long distances to a market place.
 The district tapped by the Copper River railroad is fortunately one in which the ore is generally high grade, In any of the southern mining camps 20 per cent copper ore would be a high grade In the Copper River district it is not so considered. But even so, and against the present transportation rates to the smelter, note the potential value of a vein or deposit lying anywhere within 20 miles of the railroad Such an ore carries 400 pounds of copper to the ton, worth, at the present market, gross, $92. Under exceptionally ad- verse conditions it would not cost over s20 a ton to double ender or bob sled the ore to the railroad in the winter season. It would cost S24.50 to the shelter - total transporta- ton cost, mine to shelter, of S44.50. The mining cost and treatment charge would not exceed $1O a ton, leaving net to the owner of $37.50 a ton, or $1,S75 a car load. If the ore averaged 10 per cent or less hand sorting CT mechanical dressing would cheaply produce a product that would stand a tariff much higher than the one now in effect, and make good to the own CTS.
 "The trouble does not appear to be so much exorbitant rates or the gen eral cussedness of the. Guggenheims as it seems to be a lack of dynamite and dynamic force on the part of prospectors and mine owners in nov ing the ore to the railroad"

HUNGARY FACES SHORTAGE OF

ZURICH, Switzerland, Jan. 1o-All efforts to prevent the extortionate prices of foodstuffs in Hungary hav- ing SO far lGi'ed. the government has now determined to prohibit entirely he export, even to Austria, of any articles of food which are scarce, and has also fixed miximum prices that are to be imposed throughout Hun gary, according to reliable advices received here. Local authorities are to be empowered to seize with mili- tary force all stocks of grain and other provisions that are being kept for higher prices.

one entering complaint who ever of fered ore to the road for haulage or who has ore ready to offer. When shown a tariff sheet a few explain that the printed tariff is a blind to cover discriminations and rebates in favor of the Guggies. To these it is a waste of time to point out that the rates embrace a joint tariff under the scrutiny and control of the ln- terstate Commerce Commission. and that discrinimations or favors of any sort between shippers are not tOler- ated.
 Tt is near to an 1900 mile haul from interior railroad points to the smell ter at Tacoma. The joint tariff now in effect provides a minimum charge from interior railroad points to Ia coma of $11 ton of ore not exceeding in value $25 a ton. The rate moves upward according to the ton value of the ore: Forty dollar ore pays $14 ton; $50 ore pays $17 a ton; s65 ore pays $20.50 a ton; $50 ore pays $22.50 a ton; $200 ore pays $24.50 a ton; $500 ore pays $2910 ton; s40O ore pays s31.40 a ton; $500 ore and upward pays $33.7O a ton. These rates apply to Chitina, Kotsina, Strelna, Chokosna. Moose Lake. Long Lake, Porphyry, Mccarthy and Kennecott. The minimum rate from Alagnik to Tacomo is $5.75 a ton; from Brem- ner $9.S5 a ton.
 "Of course low grade ores cannot be moved against these rates, And if they could there is no smelter market place for such ores on the outside. Mining men who enter this district know we'll enough that only the high grade ores or mechanically

The United States has sent a note to the British foreign office, vigorously pro- testing against the interference of the British admiralty with the passage of mails between America and neutral countries. The administration has been engaged in the preparation of the message for the past two weeks, and the entire legal force of the state department has been devoting it's time to examining the legal status of the matter. The chief trouble has been with the mail addressed to Hol- land and the Scandinavian countries. Many packages have been removed by the British warships, on the

"A great railroad begins at COrdova and ends in the foothills of the Wran- gell range great, not in mileage equipment or schedule, but for ob- stacles overcome, and the grit, ener- gy determination and vision of the builders and operators" said J. L. Harper, who has force of men em- ployed in developing the copper pro- perty of the Lakinaw Mines Company near Long Lake, in close proximity to the Copper River railway. These men pushed aside the dog pack and the double ender and pioneered their way to the interior with a modern railroad, bringing opportunity to the mine owner and the prospector by opening the door to the outside smelt- ing centers.
 What is the answer?"
 You will hear it in almost every prospector's cabin, roadhouse, saloon or wherever a hot stove is on duty, in Alaska. The answer takes many forms and variations, but it generally hoils down to a condemnation of the Guggenheims. The Guggs or Guggies have tied up the country; their field engineers have put the "siwash" mark on all the meritorious properties of the district until they can, some time in the distant future, be gob- bled up by the Guggenheims; the freight rates are too high and the railroad refuses to build branch lines to the new properties. These com plaints and others of similar import make up the answer.
 This widespread sentiment seems to give little concern to the alleged offenders--they say nothing. Metbo- ideally, determinedly, they go ahead

developing and moving ore from the most marvellous copper mines the world has ever seen. The hurt to the district and to Cordova as the gate way to the district comes from the reports circulated in the States - reports directly traceable to this sen timent. New capital is frequently ad- vised or warned that 1t is a waste of time and money to acquire or develop mines along the Copper River rail road - that ores, if offered, would not be hauled. or if hauled, would only be transported at eonfiscatory rates. These reports are often believed.
 "An examination of the facts con vinces one that so much error and prejudice could not have gained such wide currency unless abetted and 'peddled' by interests with axes to grind - political, no doubt, for bait ing the Guggenheims in Alaska seems to be considered good vote getting DO litics.

The we'll travelled person is not slow to see this. The schedules are reasonably certain, the trainmen are competent and courteous and the rates are not out of proportion to other Alaska prices.
