kee Brewers Entered Plea
Of Not Guilty to Murder.

killed had been in several scrapes.
and that being q powerful man, was
in a position to do bodily harm to the
baseball manager, who was seated at
the time Of the shooting. The man
tourist who was seated with Shay is
an important witness for the defense.
Alleged foul words used by the negro
when ordered to bring more sugar,
also are said to be important features
which win be brought out at the trial.
Shay - confident that he will be ac-
Quilted Of the charge against him. and
predicts that he will be freed. Prison
life at the jail has been made as COM
Portable a possible for him.

WARTIME ECONOMY INHOLLAND
FACTORIES IS FORCED BECAUSE
OF THE SCARCITY OF COAL.

Consul Mahin, at Amsterdam, re
ports as follows:
The great van Houten cocoa ant
chocolate factory at Weesp, near Am
sterdam, has been forced to stop work
for lack of coal. 1t is hoped that 8
the situation is uncertain.
Two boats have been withdrawn
from the municipal ferry service a
cross the Amsterdam Harbor and 9TH
er5 are making a reduced number OF
trips, because of the fuel shortage
The result is that the former service
of boat every II minuter each way
is changed to 10 minutes during the
day and 20 minutes at night.
The scarcity of coal forces the gov
ernment to limit the quality allotted
to the Dutch company which produce
es paper in rolls to such an extent
that the company must entirely close
one of its factories. This will reduce
by 25 and possibly even by so per
cent the quantity of paper available
for Dutch newspapers.
To Reduce Consumption.
Accordingly. an association of i'm
portant journals resolve to reduce
their consumption, beginning Octo-
ber l. 1917, by rs per cent in COM
parison with their use of paper in
1916. A committee of this associa
tion will act in conjunction with the
company producing paper in rolls, in
order to insure proper distribution
and consumption.

BIG OUTPUT OF CANNED PEAS.
No Excuse for Extortionate Prices
Food Administration Says.

The Food Administration issues the
following:
According to reports made to the
Food Administration, the canning in
dustry has responded nobly to the de-
mands for food conservation. The
1917 output of canned peas has
reached the enormous total of nearly
100000 cases of dozen tins each
as compared with the previous record
of approximately 100000 in 1915
and an output of about six and one
half million in 1916.
While there is some shortage in
the highest-priced grades, there is a
surplus in the medium and larger
sizes of peas. which have not most
nutrition and which are in most gen.
eral demand
Most of these peas were sold by
Gamers before the declaration of war
to be delivered this fall after canning
and at prices to the wholesale trade
raging from 80 cents to 81 per dozen
for the medium size and price. There
is accordingly no excuse for the ex-
tortionate prices being asked in some
markets.
