A crowd quickly gathered, and
when somebody yelled, "Get that Mig
ger!" the spark had reached the pow
der.
The mob swept through the streets,
stopped and searched street cars for
victims, and tried to break into the
Jail, where a number of negroes
were rushed for safekeeping. Am
balances followed in the wake of the
mob, picking up bruised and uncon-
sciOus negroes.
Police gave up attempts to cope
with the situation, and 125 members
of two companies of the Sixth Illi-
nois infantry, under Major R. w.
Cavanaugh, was called out by Mayor
Fred Mollman. The soldiers were
swept from their feet, and when it
became evident the small force was
inadequate, Adjutnat General Dick
son was appealed to for aid General
Dickson responded that he was pow
erless to call out the federalized
guard units, pointing out that they
were under direct call of President
Wilson.
Dozens of saloons were wrecked
in the colored district, and every
negro found was beaten. Many beg
ged on their knees for mercy. Hun
dreds escaped across the free bridge
to st. Louis, carrying bundles and
suitcases.

Recipient Is Now Rich Man, But
Check Is Accepted.
VALLEY CENTER, Kan.-Fifty-
three years ago R. L. Carnahan, a
private in a regiment of Illinois in
fantry, was mustered out of the SER
vice of the government. He had not
been paid for several months, and
according to his figures was entitled
to $67.67.
When he went to the office of the
army paymaster he received $57.67.
1t was a case of government account
ants against a private in the army
and the affair was settled as all such
affairs eventually are settled in the
army-Carnahan accepted the $751;
81, signed the pay roll and forgot
the incident.
He came West, located here, and
the matter, with scores of others of
his army career, was obliterated from
his mind. Carnahan is rich now and
has retired.

SMITH AMENDMENT TO INTER.
STATE COMMERCE OPPOSED
The House Committee Has Made an
Adverse Report on Ii.

Adverse Report on 1t.
WASHINGTON, D. C.-The house
committee on interstate and foreign
commerce declined to-day to agree
to the senate amendment adopted at
the instance of Senator Hoke Smith
OF Georgia, which would put the bur
den upon the interstate commerce
commission in the case of every ap-
pllcation for an increase in rates, to
conduct hearing where the rail
roads would be required to prove
that the rates asked for were lust
and reasonable.
Senator Smiths action was design
ed to block the Is per cent. advance
IN rates asked for by the railroads
because of increasing costs of all ma
terials.
The original Adamson bill, which
the house committee insists upon,
merely provides for increasing the
membership of the commission to
nine members. This is of immediate
Importance, says the report submit
ted by Chairman Adamson, to pre-
vent the commission being over
whelmed with work.

WOMEN SACRIFICING THEIR

Collection Being Made by Prussian
League for Use in Munition Works.
The Women's Patriotic league, of
Soligen, Rhenish Prussia, is making
collection of women's hair from
which to weave betting for use in
munition works. There is such a
dearth of leather that none can be
spared for belt-making and expert
ments have shown that human hair
makes a splendid substitute.
The shorter hair donations will be
used in the making of felt for mill
tary purposes. The Woman's Patriot
ic league has called upon all the fe-
male population of Rhenish Prussia
to make this sacrifice for their coun-
try.

Bradstreet's says: Trade as we'll
as industry turned into March at an
active gait, accompanied, nevertheless,
by such restrictive influences as high
prices, railroad embargoes, poor coun-
try roads, and a tense international
political situation. New financial ex-
hibits, signs of uncertainty, and fresh
buying in regular trade channels dis
closed caution in regard to far off COM
mitments. Yet house trade and or
ders sent in by road statesmen, spring
trade, in fact, exceeds a year ago. A
scarcity of staple goods is marked and
renders it difficult for jobbers to fill
orders. Industry is operating at full
capacity, except where paucity of la
Dor or scarcity of raw materials or
fuel checks energies, but the main
point is that many lines are sold
ahead, the iron and steel industry with
business well into 1918 being con-
spicuous in this respect. Weekly bank
clearings, 1891 900.

Other Fruits-Oranges moved well
this week owing to the Orange Day
campaign, and quotation remain the
same as for several weeks, the fancy
holding at 1925 and choice at $2.5O@
2.75. Grapefruit is still quoted at
$3.50, but the market is firm and may
go higher. There are still few cram
berries on the market, but no change
in quotation is noted.
Potatoes spud market is on
off s. this week, making the figure
$3.50 per cwt.
Other Vegetables - Spinach is
easier at S1.25, while turnips and car
rots are firmer at 81 and S125 per
cwt. Head lettuce is easier at S5c
per dozen and 1925 per crate, while
the dollhouse variety is quoted at 81
per box
Wheat-While the wheat market
has been rather a quiet affair, the un-
dertone of the situation has been a
strong one. 1t is impossible to work
new business at the present time, be.
cause of the practical embargo on
eastern shipments by rail and the fact
that here is no tonnage available for
Pacific seaboard clearances, but hold
ers who have not yet relinquished
their offerings are very firm in their
position and inclined to demand ad-
vances from ruling quotations. The
mills are buying only against imme
date requirements, and these are not
large at the present time, most plants
being either operating on limited time
or partially closed down, because OF
the practical impossibility of making
deliveries on export account. Blue
stem is held nominally around 1872
with the usual differentials on other
grades, the market being about COO
per bushel higher than a year ago al
this time.
Feed-Feedstuffs have been ruling
steady, so far as cereals are con
cerned, and there are no changes in
prices. Hay, however, has weakened
again, and is quoting lower, but it is
believed that the market has touched
bottom

WILL ARM MERCHANT
SHIPS OF AMERICA
PRESIDENT WILSON ISSUES Or
DER TO SHOOT SUBMARINES
ON SIGHT.
EXTRA SESSION OF CONGRESS
April 16 Opening Day-FulI Backing
Of Congress Assured Now in Pro-
tecting Shipping Under Uncle
Sans Flag.

hington.-President Wilson, from
a sickbed Friday, ordered the arming
of merchant ships against Germanys
submarine warfare, and at the same
time issued a proclamation calling an
extra session of congress to meet
April 16.
The presidents decision came fol-
lowing the action of the senate in re-
vising It's rules to permit prompt &C
ton on important questions and the
submission of formal opinions by
Secretary Lansing and Attorney eGn-
eral Gregory that he has the power
to arm merchantmen without action
by congress.
The American government Saturday
began the actual preparations to arm
American merchantmen against Ger
many's submarine warfare.
When the vessels sail under the pol
icy of armed neutrality they will do
so with the full backing of the ad-
istration-expressed in the form
of war risk insurance and naval guns
anu IL was SiCdi odb-
urday that in the background will be
the entire resources of the United
States-ready for action should Ger
many attack an American ship in VIC
lation of the warning of the American
government.
The state departments view of de-
fensive armament, as expressed, was
that the mere appearance of Ger
man submarine of its periscope near
an American armed vessel would en-
title the vessel to take all measures
of protection, on the presumption that
the submarines purpose was hostile.
This was based on Germany's an
nouncement that her submarines
would attack without warning any
belligerent or neutral merchantmen
encountered within the barred zone.
