Combing Out Process for

gineers Volunteering.

London, Eng. Feb. 16.-Notable i'm
provement in the last two or three
weeks in what he calls "the comb-out
atmosphere" is remarked by the la
Dor correspondent OF The Times. The
"combing out" or drafting OF men
from protected occupations under the
military service bill is now in pro-
gress.
Nevertheless, the correspondent
says. the past week is the first in
many months in which there has not
been a stoppage OF work in any part
OF the country in consequence Of
grievances among the workers. More
over, large numbers Of young engi-
neers are coming voluntarily TO the
recruiting offices and are not waiting
to be summoned.
The correspondent. while not admit

moved, says that events show that re-

tact With Chicago
Authorities.

-. T.. Beat, manager Of Taugbol's
ladies' furnishings establishment, re-
turned this morning from a trip to
Detroit, and Chicago, and
told how he had been held in Chicago
Saturday night as a suspected draft

Mr.. Beatt who had been spending
ing at the Michigan Central station in
Chicago Saturday when suddenly
three men approached him, asking
him to show his registration card.
He said he had forgotten 1t at home
in Grand Forks, but that he was duly
registered and had, nc intention Of
evading his duties as a citizen.
Seemingly satisfied, the men let
MI. Beat go. hack to his hotel, and
plainclothesmen were waiting for
him. Once more he was asked for
his registration card or satisfactory
explanations, and finally Wasa taken
to the city hall for a hearing before
the officials of the American Pro-
tective league.
Arrived there. Mr.. Beatt found that
two or three hundred men were al
ready waiting, having been arrested
that the league had 5000 operatives
in Chicago. Mr.. Beatt feared that
he would miss his train and was pre-
pairing to cancel his. reservation, when
suddenly informed that an immediate
hearing would be granted him. Thus,
with a delay Of n and a half hours,
Mr.. Beat was permitted to continue
his journey after having convinced
the authorities Of his honest inten-
tlons as q citizen Of military age, and
he had to pledge that he would tele-

OF the business men Of the city will

ment Of agriculture will be the
speaker OF the occasion at this meet
ing and will represent the govern
ment on the labor proposition with
regard to the ability Of the help at

The meeting will be an open dis
cuesion and business man and farmer
the help they have. and the help they
will need to take care of the work
that must be done. The importance
OF this question can be easily realized
when the government sends a special

matter. AS Clarence ousley, assist
