Without putting on sale sin

clared Thursday that he had al

over the makers trust In Tacoma.
A canvass of downtown stores
and bakeries by representatives of

tailers are not only refusing to
handle the trust" bread, but are
underwriting the trust prices with
Independent bread. he says. Sew
eral stores are selling five-cent
loaves at cents, and 10-cent
loaves at cents, 1t was found.
Fawcett's desk was piled high

Seeing behind Seattle's Of

to build up Seattle manufac-

city, as they believed, the
council Thursday morning
fatty turned down the entire
proposition.
1t was learned on good author

council, that ship-building con-
Germ had planned to establish an
immense plant in Seattle II that
city could provide it with suffi-
cient electricity. Seattle did not
have enough available current.
Now that Tacoma has refused
to sell the current, 1t is rumored
strongly that the ship-building
plant will be built in Tacoma har-
Dor.

of the Seattle offer Thursday, and
aside from the question of COM

Tacoma, Thursday replied to the

are robbing their patrons by set

HELD FOR
CATCH Of
IS TROUT

E. Festyn Davis. Tacoma tenor,
was hailed by the sporting editor
of a Tacoma evening newspaper
recently as 1.-THE champion trout
fisherman of Pierce county,
The champ fisherman Was
crowned with . photograph of
himself on the sport page OF the
Sunday edition, and held up as
Q living model for all hunters OF
the willy trout.
"A basket of 81 trout taken
fron the waters OF Chambers
creek Wednesday" said the ad-
miring editor, brought his total
for the season up to 1,1S0, and
every one of the fish were caught
with flies used"
The noted Tacoma tenor
and champ angler was ang-
ling i'm Chambers creek, his
favOrite haunt, yesterday,
when Deputy Game Warden
j. Y. Reed happened upon
the scene and saw, he says,
some small glittering objects
disappear into the noted ten.
Or's vest pockets.
The game warden asked the
champ angler to let him see his
catch.
Mr.. Davis showed him the trout
in his basket, but Mr.. Reed was
curious about the vest.
A search of the pockets, says
the warden, revealed 16 tiny un-
dersized trout, some of them not
more than three inches long.
Then the noted tenor was ar
rested. The understood trout
were in the safe-keeping of War
den Light Thursday.
But the alleged catching of the
small fish is not the only charge
against the noted tenor. The
warden declares he was standing
right on top of the dam and cast
ing his bait, contrary to law.
But to go back to the sporting
editors interview with the champ
fisherman of Pierce county:
"Davis carries little book
eAouhu On
ing trips and puts down the
number of fish caught i'm the
stream and the date of every
trip. Davis figures show
that about 400 of his trout
were caught in Chambers
creek"
Then he quotes the noted tenor
In the following language:
Chambers creek is about the
finest rout stream around here.
1.-THE fish are there in millions.
II have followed up parties who
couldn't get a strike and have
come away with basketful."
Then the sport ed adds:
"Mr. Davis has the highest
praise for Washington as a sports
mans paradise"

BILLIONS

ON LABOR

Omitted Press Leased Wire.D
NEW YORK, Nov. 10. -
Prospects of the greatest in
dustrial struggle i'm history
were increasing today.
The capital-and-labor situation
arising from the railroads &C.
termination to fight the Adam
son eight-hour law was accentuat-
ed by formation of vast organt-
cation of employers to be known
as the National Industrial Confer
ence board.
This new body, representing
$S,000,000,O00 capital and en-
ploying 100000 persons, pro-
poses, its organizers set forth,
that Industrial legislation shall be
watched more closely, that legis-
lators shall be guided by public
information and that favoritism to
labor shall be eliminated.
1t will fight such measures as
the Adamson law; and it believes
that the election showed Their is
no labor vote" and hence legis-
lators hereafter need not curry IA
vor with labor leaders, which it
1t claims has been done in the
past.
The significance of the new
alignment increased with receipt
of word in United Press Baltimore
dispatches that the brotherhoods
will join to force the eight-hour
day in all industries-not by leg
islation, but by the force of or
ganized labor. '--------
The railroads kept up their
preparations for trying to prevent
operation of the Adamson law.
More suits, covering all lines and
all districts, will be submitted to
courts all over the nation in the
next ten days.
1t Is apparent in railroad cir
cles today that the managers
have virtually given up hope of
coming to terms with the broth
erhood chiefs.
