IS SHOCKED

b. b. McBurnett, an employe of the
city waterworks department, had a
narrow escape from serious injury, if
not electrocution, yesterday afternoon
while working on water pipes beneath
the store occupied by the Bullard Dry
Goods company. In attempting to
force a displaced water pipe into po-
sition, Mr.. McBurnett grabbed. the
pipe in his hands, finding out, too late
that the conduit which carried the
electric lighting wires into the build
ing, had come in contact with the wa
ter pipe at point where the insula-
ton was broken on the conduit.
The water pipe was heavily charged
with electricity from the short-circuit-
ing of the conduit and Mr.. McBurnett
was unable to turn loose of it. The
voltage was sufficiently heavy to
throw McBurnett about the compart-
ment in which he was working, but
not sufficient to shock him into insen-
sibility or to burn him severely In
finally releasing himself from the
charged pipe. McBurnett pulled the
fixtures which held it loose from the
wall and broke the connection with
the conduit.

DUTCH WAR
MOVE DUE
TO ALLIES
By United Press.

By United Press.
The Hague, May 2.-(By mail)-De-
spite the statements of certain pro-
English newspapers, it is now known
authoritatively that it was fear of the
allies, and not of Germany, that
prompted the Dutch government to
take war-like measures a month ago.
Certain reports reaching the Dutch
government about steps taken by the
allies at the Paris conference caused
grave concern here.
The minister of war informed news
paper men that the government was
expecting an economic crisis of great
importance, though he refused to go
further in his statement.
Evidently in anticipation of sharp
measures by the allies, the govern
ment chartered several steamers and
sent them to America for wheat.
Measures taken by the British gov
ernment to enforce the blockade of
Germany arc steadily becoming more
irritating to the Dutch.
This does not mean, however, that
the anti-Gernan feeling of the greater
part of the people of Holland has been
lessened.
Hollanders are generally convinced
that Germany has respected Dutch
neutrality in this war only because she
depends upon Holland for her food
supplies.
The people blame high food prices
upon Germany because expectations
to the kaiser's realm have lessened
the supply here.
The people of Holland want to be
let alone by both sides.

'TRUSTLAW

DEFECTIVE
President Van Hise Says Act Must Be
Amended; Business Men Want Line
Drawn Between Cooperation
and Monopoly
BY United Press.

BY United Press.
Chicago. ILL.,, May 31.-Declaring
the Sherman antitrust law should be
modified to permit business interests
to cooperate and promote, not re-
strain, trade. President Charles r..
Van Hise of the University of Wiscon-
sin was applauded long and loud at
the opening session of the National
Lumber Manufacturers convention
here today.
The address was declared particu-
larly appropriate at this time, when
business men in all lines of American
trade are trying to have the new fed
eral trade relations committee given
authority to pass on cooperative con-
tracts between business concerns.
They want the line drawn between
advantageous cooperation and blight
ing monopoly.
President Van Hise, who went be-
lore CUHlUllllec Ol CDHBIbbS IcCChtiy
and asked the amending of the anti
trust law to permit the lumber manu-
facturers to cprtail production, under
federal regulation, to point which
would make it possible for them to
profitably conserve their forest sup
plies for future generations, explained
his views on this point. He declared
that under present conditions 1t might
be possible for an industry TO waste
its entire future natural supply to meet
present demand.
Mayor William T. Thompson OPEN
ed the convention. r. A. Long of
Kansas City responded. The annual
address Of the president was then
made by President r. H. bowman of
New Orleans.
ft the afternoon session DR.. Her
man Won Schrenk of st. Louis read a
paper on tests of fire-resistent paints,
in which he touched on the latest
move of the nations lumbermen, to

SALE TO U. S. EMPLOYEES
AT COST PRACTICABLE
So Secretary Baker Reports in Re
spending to Gallinger
Resolution.

Secretary Baker Of the War Department
today sent to the Senate reply to the
Gailinger resolution calling upon him to
inform the Senate what food supplies are
sold by the governmnet TO the officers and
men of the army and to civilian en-
ployes, and to state whether in his opin-
ion the sale of such supplies could be ex-
tended to other civilian employees of the
government in the District and elsewhere.
Secretary Baker stated that under the
law food supplies are now sold TO enlisted
men and officers of the Army Navy and
Marine Corps at cost for their own use
and for the use of their families and also
to civilian employees with the army, such
as shoemaksrs and taiiors.
The Secretary estimated that the
sales by the government at cost are
about 10 per cent below the prevailing
market prices.
sale of food supplies by the govern
ment to the civilian employees, he said,
but it would largely increase the "ork
at the army posts ana necessltate an
increase in the clerical force. In con-
clusien he said:
Tn view of the fact that complaints
have been received at various times
from proprietors of stores throughout
the United States with respect to the
sales of supplies by the government 10
civilian employees the policy has been
adopted by the War Department re-
stricting such sales to government EN-
ployes stationed at remote places
where provisions cannot otherwise be
obtained, except to few officials OF
the War Department in Washington.
