LIQUOR LICENSE REQUIRED
FOR SELLING "NEAR BEER"
Announcement Made Following Con-
ference Between Excise Board
and Agents of Brewers.

No more near beer will be sold to es-
tablishments in Washington not provided
with liquor licenses.
This announcement was made today
following conference between the excise
board and representatives of large brew
ing interests.
1t means a peaceful carrying out of the
recent order of the Commissioners that
prosecutions be entered in the cases Of all
dealers found selling near beer or other
beverages containing alcohol, who are not
provided with licenses issued by the ex-
else authorities.
A test case under this order Is now
pending In Police Court, but the agree
ment reached today precludes violations
and Is believed to effectually solve the
near beer problem.

UNION MEN ASKED
TO STAY At HOME
"Sympathetic Wa|k-Out'' in
New York Scheduled for Next
Wednesday Morning.
NOT A CALL TO STRIKE,
BUT JUST A SUSPENSION
Unwilling to Risk Their Lives by
Riding c. c:zs Operated by
Green Crews.

NEW YORK, September 2:3.--
Trade unions in this city and
Westchester county today began
to vote on the question of ratify-
ing the action of eighty delegates
who yesterday called for gen
eral suspension of work. next
Wednesday morning. The labor
chiefs appealed to all union wage
earners to stay at home until the
traction companies make it pos
slble for them to ride in the street
cars without offense to their
union allegiance.
1t is asserted that no such action
heretofore has been taken by the trades
unions of this country, nor has strike
involving so many trades ever been
called. Its maximum effect would call
from work 10000 men and women.
Not "sympathetic Strike"
Leaders of the movement refrain
from calling it sympathetic strike.
They declare that many of the unions
already have voted to ratify their rec
ommendation, and that. any union man
who does not quit work Wednesday
will be denounced as traitor.
To what extent they expect the unions
to respond to the suspension call was
not disclosed. How can 1 tell? 1t is
up to the unions" said Hugh Frayne,
general organizer of the American
Federation of Labor in New York
state. 1t is pointed out that wednes-
day Is the beginning of an important
Jewish holiday. when many workers
ordinarily would stay at home.
The call for cessation of work is
based on the grievance that men of
union affiliations cannot ride to their
except in cars manned by
non-union conductors or motormen and
under the protection Of the police.

dicate that they are incensed by Mayor
Mitchefs warning that he stood ready
to use the military power to restrain
violence. and that they consider the

Detailed plans for the collection of

today.
The papers are to be sold by the

the plan outlined by The Star and ap-
proved by the board of education at its

At this meeting =. is probable that a
certain day will be set aside each week
for the collection Of the papers from
schools Of certain groups. Schools that
are near together will have collections
made from them the same day, of
course.
The children will be asked to deliver
the papers at their school building the
day prior to the day on which col

lar building. The papers will not be
carried to the schoolrooms. but will be

Unwilling to Risk Lives.

The call is based upon the proposition
that union men cannot maintain their
self-respect" II they ride upon cars
operated by strikebreakers. according
to a statement issued by Ernest Bohm.
secretary OF the Central Federated
Union. In cases where contracts exist,
Bohm said. the employers will be noti-
fed that the workers have no means of
transportation, and IL the employers
cannot provide transportation the
workers must remain at their homes.
Union employees will not risk their
lives by riding on cars operated by
green motormen and protected by po-
licemen." Mr.. Bohm said. Neither can
they ride on such cars and retain their
self-respect as union men.
The general tie-up will come be.
cause employers of union labor will not
provide their employees with means Of
transportation to and from work to en-
able them to stay of the dangerous
strike breaking cars of the several
traction lines"

OUT TO A SUGAR CAMP

On Wednesday afternoon party of
ladies enjoyed pleasant trip to the
Dessert sugar camp, which is located
six miles east of Mosinee and about
twenty miles from Wausau. The trip
was made in the Dessert auto, and the
warm sunny day made the ride most
enjoyable. Mr.. Dessert has recently
installed new machinery for sugar
making, which makes the industry
both scientific and satisfactory; and
watching the boiling white sap in the
receptacles as it passes through the
different degrees and stages until it
gradually changes into delicious gol-
den maple syrup was most interesting.
Three delightful hours were spent at
the camp. The party included Mrs.
Louis Dessert and daughters, Misses
Louise and Blanche, Mrs. c. H. Ingra-
ham. Mrs. R. H. Johnson and Miss
Hermione Silverthorn.

LUNGMOTOR DEMONSTRATED

B. d. Weyand, a representative from
the Life Saving Devices Co., of Chi
cago, was in the city recently and
gave a demonstration of the lung
motor at Fire Engine house No. /. A
lungmotOr was purchased by this city
some time ago, and the demonstration
by Mr.. Weyand was given for the bene-
fit of the public. This representa-
tive claims that many lives Nave been
lost from poisoning from gases and
fumes, electric shocks, apparently
drowned, strangulations, asphyhia of
newborn, ETC., which could have been
saved by using the lungmotor. This
device also relieves people suffering
with pneumonia, whooping cough,
scarlet fever, diphtheria, etc. During
Mr. Weyand's stay in Wausau he sold
one infant device to DR.. S. NJ B.
Smith. The ladies in charge of Baby
Week here will have sample infant
lungmotor on demonstration at that
time.

POWER LINE

The electric power line connecting
Wausau and Merrill has been complet-
ed. The Wisconsin Electric company
had a large crew at work the past
few weeks setting poles AMI stretch
irg wires. The line consists of three
eavy copper wires and :, steel wire
Stretched across the tops of the poles,
for a lightning arrester. Now, Mosi-
nee, Rothschild, Wausau and Merrill
are connected up with the power line,
and should any of the places meet with
trouble so that power should be cut
off, it could be supplied from the other
powers, as it was in July, 1912. At
the time of the freshet, Wausau and
Rothschild were able to be supplied
from Mosinee.
