TIRES COST MORE
EXPENSE OF OPERATING AUTOS
SCARS AS TIRE PRICES
GO UPWARD.

Madison dealers in automobile ac-
cessories this morning received notice
of a general advance of 10 per cent
in the price of practically all makes
of automobile tires. The advance is
effective today. 1t applies TO all
types of solid and cushion tires and
to inner tubes.
The higher quotations have been
expected for some time by dealers,
but the action of the big casing man
ufacturers came as a surprise to the
automobile owners. With the ad-
anc on accessories the upkeep of a
car will be materially increased. In
making the announcement of the in
creased price Of the rubber products
some of the factories gave no eason
for the step.
Dealers say that there has been an

tervals he was accustomed to brood
over his trouble, but eve would dis
cuss his affairs to any extent.
He appeared to be in excellent
health, but when last seen alive by
Egan acquaintance he apparently
was having one of his brooding spells
and no doubt ended his life while In
one of these moods. He had been
around Egan since midsummer work
ing at odd jobs, and in the fall he
worked for a time on the farm Of
John Willard, near Egan, and for the
past few weeks had been boarding at
an Egan restaurant.
A double barreled shotgun had
been left in the pumping station.
Only two shells were in the pumping
station and these were in the pocket
of an old sweater. Frutchey wander
ed TO the pumping station when no
one was there, and secured the shot
gun. He also found the two shells.
The first shot he fired at himself

While he Reads Message, Women Ask

Them; Demonstration is Very Brief
PAGE EIGHT.

Washington, Dec. 6. = President
Wilson's address to congress yesterday
was marked by a woman suffrage
coup in the galleries and by great
demonstration of congratulatlon to
the president upon his reelection, in
which many Republicans joined with
the Democrats.
After acknowledging the pro-
longed cheers and applause which
greeted his entry to the hall of the
house, the president launched into
his address. reviewing recommends
tions for railroad legislation. a cor
rupt practices act and had passed to
his recommendations for broader
government for Porto Rico. He was

bearlng in great black letters the in
scriptlon:
president Wilson, what will you do
for woman suffrage?"
The suffra gists said afterward it
was their protest against the presi-
dents plea with congress for broader
suffrage for the men of Porto Rico.
while he did not mention their own
cause in his address.
President Amused.
AS the banner rippled down, the
suffragists sat smiling and unper-

utive page. raised on the arms Of men
directly under the gallery, grasped the
edge of the banner and snatched it
down. President Wilson. attracted by
the stir, looked up from his reading
and apparently taking in the situation
at Il glance, smiled broadly and with
out hesitation or interruption turned
his eyes back to his manuscript and
continued his address to it's end with
out further demonstra tons.
Policemen and gallery guards sour

but contented themselves with watch
Ing the party, as i. to prevent a
further outbreak.
the suffragists filed out unmolested by
the police, who said they had no or
ders other than to prevent any
further infringement OF the rules Of
the house. The banner remained
trophy with the sergeant-at-arms.
Plans We'll Laid.
AS it turned out, the women had
their plans laid with precision and
sprung their coup almost on the sec
ond. Evidently in possession Of an
advance copy Of the presidents mes
sage, they had timed the document
at the speed they expected he would
read, and anticipated he would reach
the Porto Rico section in eight min
utes.
Miss Mabel Vernon of Nevada, who
heclilcd the president here at his
American Federation OF Labor speech
last July. and who smuggled the
banner into the house gallery under
her coat today, kept time and gave
tho signal for the unfurling Of the
banner
Press Agent Busy.
Before the police could get to the
gallery the suffragists' press agent was
busy handing out canned" reports
of the affair replete in detail, giving
the names of the militants and inter-
views with each.
The consensus of their opinion was
summed up by Mrs Abby Scott
Baker of the Congressional union,
who declared the incident was "ex-
pressive of the indignation that
women feel at the stupid and sense
less opposition to granting the right
of self government to one-half the
people of the United States"
Ten Concerned.
The ten women who participated in
the coup marched off, acclaimed
heroines. to Congressional union
headquarters. where they held a re-
ception.
Miss Mabel Vernon Of Nevada, DR..
Caroline L. Spencer OF Colorado, Mrs.
Florence Bayard Hilles Of Delaware,
Mrs. John Rodgers of New York. Mrs.
Anna Lowenburg Of Pennsylvania,
Mrs. Bessie H. Papandre and Miss
Maud Gilbert Of California. Mrs W.
l.. Colt of New York, Miss Lucy
Burns of the Congressional union.
and Mrs. Townsend Scott Of Maryland
composed the suffragist party. The
women had carried on their prepara-
tions SO carefully that none Of the
hundreds of spectators surrounding
them had any inkling Of their plans.
The coup. say the suffrag gists,
worked we'll enough to suit them even
If it failed to draw any acknowledge

startling the next time.

1T was a most excellent demon

smiling happily. Certainly we may
in the future adopt various measures
not dissimilar to the one we used
today to keep congress reminded Of
our cause"
