STRIKERS RETURNING
IN CHICAGO DISTRICT

Chicago. Oct. 2.-(By A. P.)--
Further defcctions from the ranks OF
the steel strikers in the Chicago district
were reported today, although union
leaders declare that largo majority OF
the men who have returned to work are
laborers and that the mass of skilled
workmcn are standing firm. At the
plant of the Indiana steel Company at
Gary, Ind, 1900 additional strikers are
reported to have returned to work,
while at Indiana Harbor, Ind, about
5000 of the 1000 striking employees of
the Inland Steel Company and the Mark
Manufacturing Company arc said to
have expressed desire to return as
soon as proper protection is assured.
The American Steel and Wire Com
pany, at Waukegan. H., started its
rolling mills today for the first time
since the strike began and is reported
to have force of about 800 men at
work.
In the South Chicago district the
Illinois Steel Company is said to have
about 1000 men at work and operating
units in number of departments.
Plants also were reported to be in
operation at Joliet and other points
with reduced forces.
The only violence reported was at
Gary, where Jacob Great, n striker who
returned to work yesterday, was found
severely beaten by three union men.

Burleson Helps Mail Order Houses.

Burleson Helps Mail Order Houses.
Washington, July %. One Of the
questions which will come before con-
gress this session will be the read
justment Of the pay OF all employees
of the postal service, including first,
second, third and fourth-class post
masters, clerks, and employees of the
railway mail service. Although those
members of congress who are interest
ed in postal legislation are largely Of
the opinion that readjustment must be
made, involving increases which, in the
aggregate, would amount to a great
figure, they are greatly at variance in
their plans for bringing this about
without creating a deficit in the opera
ton of the postoffice department.
However, it is probable that the ini-
tial steps toward securing additional
postal revenue to defray the expense
of increased salaries will lead the pos
tai committees Of congress to scru-
tiny of many Of the regulations pro-
mulgated by Postmaster General
Burleson, which, it is claimed, have re-
suited in great monetary loss to the
government One Of these regula-
tons is that which covered books and
catalogues into the parcel post CLASH
fication, which has resulted in stupen-
dous profit to certain large mail order
houses and a corresponding loss of
revenue to the government. This
regulation made it possible for the
mail order houses, by sending their
catalogues to postal zone centers by
freight, and then distributing them by
mail, to reduce their postage bill from
8 cents per pound to less than cents
per pound. The profit of one concern
in this manner amounted to 81 100000
in one year, which, it is claimed was
distributed to stockholders as interest
on $20,000,000 worth Of new stock Gre
ated to take care of this additional
profit. -.
Chairman STEVENSON, of the house
committee on postoffices and post
roads, is firm in his contention that the
postmaster general did some desper-
ate figuring to bring about an alleged
profit of $44,ooo,0oo in the operation
of the postoffice department.. He be-
lieves that Mr.. Burleson made a
marked underestimate of the addi-
tional revenue accruing to the wal
fund through 3-cent postage, thus
showing large general surplus, and
it is probable that some very interest
ing facts will be produced in this con.
nection when the time comes to con-
slider increased pay for postal EN-.
ployes.

Lice Add to Cost of Pork Raising

According to tests made by the
United States department of agricul-
ture at Beltsville, Nd, lice add a cent
pound to the cost of pork produc-
ton. Two lots of hogs of 10 each as
nearly equal as to the quality of the
animals as possible were used in
these tests. The two lots were man.
aged and fed in the same way except
that one lot was treated for the pre-.
vention of lice. In the other the lice
were allowed to have their way. AT
the end Of the fatten,ng period it was
found that the hogs infested with lice
cost cent pound more to fatten
than those which were not.
