No TROUBLE.
FEARED HERE
Forty Special Deputies to
Be Sworn in This
Morning.

Forty special deputies will be
sworn in this morning. and a meeting
will be held at the office of the sher-
if in the county jail building, when
specific instructions are expected to
be given out. These specials will
all be authorized to carry arms, and
a special meeting of the board of
county commissioners has been call
ed for the purpose of approving their
bonds. Acting Chairman Soderlind
ordered the meeting for 1 O'Clock this
afternoon.
The sheriff has been asked by the
Louisville &, Nashville Railroad Com
pany to furnish this number of spe-
cial men, and it is sad they will be
distributed at points where they will
be required to afford protection to
the railroad company's property. "No
trouble is looked for, but there is no
telling what might come up, and it
is just as well, anyhow, to be ready
to meet any emergency which might
arise" said one official yesterday.
Railroad men in local circles, while
looking to enginemen and other train
men to remain loyal and obey the or
der as affecting their local positions,
apparently do not anticipate any
trouble. It is said that less than so
men would obey the first strike order
at this point.

THOUSANDS OFDOLLARS
LOST BECAUSE OF TICK
QUARANTINE ON CATTLE
DAIRY BUSINESS MAKING
RICH RETURNS IN
LEON COUNTY
SPECIAL TO THE JOURNAL.


Tallahassee, Fla. March To-
Leon county is now supplying all
of the dairy products used by
this county, is shipping as much
butter to the towns between here
and Pensacola as it has for the
past ten years, and is supplying
nearly fifty per cent of the milk
used by the city of Jacksonville
and canned in condensed form
by the Purity Ice Cream Com
pany of the Florida metropolis.
Leon is one of the few counties
of the state that even attempts
any dairying. Now that the
refrigerated cars are operated
daily to Jacksonville by the
SeabOard Air Line Railway, a
market is provided and all of the
dairymen of this county are in
creasing their herds instead of
selling them off as in the past.
Leslie R. Brown, in charge of
the milk industry here, reported
to the Tallahassee Boosters Club
last meeting that the volume of
business brought to the local
producers during February by
the new Jacksonville market
amounted to more than seven
hundred dollars and that Febru-
ary's aggregate business would
pass the twelve hundred dollar
mark.
The outlook is most encourag-
ing, and as the market is a per-
manent one, the only thing that
stands between the people here
and rich returns from this indus
try is lack of effort to develop
the dairy herds and faculties
and take full advantage of the
opportunity offered. 1t is be-
ieved that the shipments from
Tallahassee alone (milk cans
are now picked up at several
points east of here) should reach
five hundred cans daily in a
very short time.
Inquiries are being received
daily at-the Boosters Club from
prospective settlers who say that
they have already heard that
this is the dairying section of
the state.

Or Enough to Feed All
West Florida for
Five Months.
STRIKE TIE-UP
IS NOT FEARED
Home Gardens Would Also
Assist Pensacola in
Such a Siege.

Pensacola's preparedness in the
matter of foodstuffs, in the event of
a long railroad strike is shown by
rough estimates of the amount of
staple products in the large whole
sale houses in the city. totalling an
amount sufficient to feed the city
alone for at least nine months, and
West Florida for about five months.
EXaCt figures are not obtainable,
but with shipments cut off, and re-
celpts impossible, the CITY would be
forced to feed itself. Communication
by water and shipments by boat would
be possible to smaller coast cities,
which in turn could supply interior
towns by road hauls.
The agitation for home gardens and
the wide distribution of vegetable
seed conducted by The Journal is also
an important factor in estimates of
food supplies, for in this respect Pen
sacola would be fully capable of sup
plying fresh vegetables for some
time
Enough for Nine Months.
The following estimates of the sup
plies of large wholesale houses are
based solely on rough figures:
Consolidated Grocery Company
Larger supply 81 foodstofSs tl1an 5s-
ual, and larger than at time of pre-
vious strike threat. Approximately
1900 barrels of flour, and proper
tionately the same amount of all 9th
er necessary articles. The supply, it
is estimated, would last Pensacola
alone three or four months, while if
distributed throughout West Florida,
by boat and teams, would last prob
ably two or three months.
The Lewis Bear Company-For
home consumption alone the supply
of this warehouse would probably
last for two to two and half months.
For the territory embraced in this
company's usual business activity the
supply would last probably four to
six weeks.
Welles-Kahn Company-Of staple
products this company has a supply
which is estimated to last for Pen
sacola consumption about thirty
days, with a large supply of other
goods which at the average now
maintained would last approximately
four to five months.
Jennings Naval Stores Company
The supply of staple products now
held by this company would be suffi-
.cient to feed the city of Pensacola for
about a month Of other products,
the length of time is proportionately
longer, some being possibly enough to
last for four months.
Union Naval Stores Company
Without shipping to any other point
by water, this company would be
able, it is estimated. to feed Pensa-
cola for thirty days on staple pro-
ducts. Other goods held in lesser
quantities would last proportionately
longer.

Secret Police Doomed.

London, March '16.-Practically the
entire archives of the Russian secret
police were burned by the revolu-
tionists, according to a Times dis
patch from Petrograd.
When the building in which the
notorious third section had its head
quarters was captured, eager crowds
sacked the offices, blasted open safes,
wrecked strong boxes and rushed into
the streets carrying masses of docu-
ments which were quickly converted
into blazing bonfres. Not all the
documents, however, were destroyed.
The new government has obtained
possession of lists of spies and in
formers who are being fast run to
earth.
Although the populace is strongly
disposed to wreak summary ven
geance on those who incurred their
hate in the days of the old regime,
the prisoners are safe once they are
under the protection of the soldiers,
and are marched through the streets
to the duma or to the district sections
of the provisional government.
The strongest antiGerman feel.
ing animates the population, and all
highly placed personages who are
suspected of German proclivities, or
who bear German names or titles,
are being Systematically hunted
down.

Petrograd, Thursday, March 15.,

planted by government of liberals.
M. Kerenski, the new minister of JUS
tice, is a Socialist. He accepted the
portfolio on the stipulation that there
should be absolute freedom of speech
and of the press and full political am
nesty.
The cabinet has been chosen ex-
clusively from present and past mem
bers of the duma. It was named by
the executive committee of the duma,
in conjunction with other deputies
and representatives of the working
men and the soldiers which held an
all-night session.

mands," he said. eve shall have this,

The new cabinet contains men who

government and enjoyed full conf

and M. Shingaroff. the new minister
OF agriculture, have become especial
ly prominent as champions of the
rights OF the people. 1t is due to
Prof. Miluhof that revelations re-

While the duma and the WORKING,

SETTLESTR|KE
BY MEDIATION
WILSON
Two Cabinet Officers, Rail-
road President and
Gonpers to Confer.
WILSON MAKES
PERSONAL PLEA
Postpone Strike on Account,
of National Emergency,
He Urges.
By ASSOCIATED PRESS.

Washington, March 16.-President
Wilson and cabinet have appealed to
the railroads and brotherhoods to
avert, or at least, postpone the
threatened strike because of the ma
tional emergency. The cabinet meet
ing and the council of national de-
Tense considered the subject and later
Secretary Baker, as chairman of the
council, designated Secretaries Lane
and Wilson, Daniel Willard, president
of the Baltimore & Ohio, and Samuel
Gompers, to go to New York to con-
fer with both sides. President Will
son sent a personal appeal to the
railroads and brotherhoods urging
them to do everything possible to
cooperate with the mediators, The
president said a general interruption
of railway traffic would entail a
danger to the nation against which
have a right to enter my most SOL
emn and earnest protest"
The presidents action came with a
dramatic suddenness late this after
noon. The council of national de-
Tense, including in its membership
several cabinet members, had met at
the war department. and, deciding
that with the United States appar-
emily on the verge of war, a railroad
strike would be national disaster,
and proposed sending mediators.
Against the advice of his physician,
the president, who has just recovered
from cold, summoned a cabinet
meeting and in a short and decisive
session, approved the course.
The president then sent his mes
sage to representatives of the rail
roads and brotherhoods. Prior to
taking up the question President
Wilson had been informed the broth
erhoods and railroad representatives
were waiting in New York to see
if he would take some action, and
also had been told of reports that
at least some of the brotherhood
members were not ready to abide by
last years strike vote. In a formal
communication to both sides, the gov
eminent did not seek to lay the blame
for the present situation on either
side. 1t is known that the president
believes there is no good reason why
compromise is not possible.
Gompers has been out of the city
two days and it is thought Secretary
Lane was unable to advise him to
go to New York 1t is thought Comp
ers will get there tomorrow, however,
if not late tonight.
