before the German court overwhelm-
ing, evidence against her husband and
will be able to prove against him
many instances of the grossest cru
city. His infidelities were numerous,
and there is abundant proof Of them.
His brutality was atrocious. On more
than one occasion my daughter was
treated with actual violence. She
was bruised and her face was disf1g-
ured by her husbands blows

.JOURNEYMAN TA|LORS'
STRIKE TO CONTINUE
Failure to Reach Agreement At
tributed to Interference" by
Garment Workers Agent.

The striking tailors and their en-
ployers. the Merchant Tailors' Ex-
change, have failed to reach an
agreement, and the former will con-
tinue on strike. they said today, until
their demands are acceded to-
The counter proposal sent yesterday
by the striking tailors to the employ
ing merchant tailorS was rejected.
Failure to reach an agreement, the
striking tailors say. was due to the
interference of a representative of
the Garment Workers Union, who
sought to sign up the Merchant Tail
ors' Exchange shops for a wage scale
similar to the terms offered the strik-
ing tailorS.
The matter has been called to the
attention of officials of the American
Federation of Labor and the govern
ing body is expected to take some ac-
tion.
Striking Tailors' Statement.
In defense of their position the
striking taiIors, through their busi-
ness agent. D. G. Biggs. issued a
statement saying:
"At the conference of committees
between the Merchant Tailors' Ex-
change and the journeyman tailors
last Tuesday the Merchant Tailors'
Exchange asked for reductions on
several garments. 1t also asked for
a large number Of reductions on 'ex-
tras.' In many instances the reduc-
ton was SO per cent and over. On
some items it amounted to 100 DER
cent
"In answer to this the journeyman
tailors passed the following resolu-
ton and sent an official copy of it to
the exchange:
THAT in consideration of the fact
that this union thinks the wage scale
and other conditions of the bills of
prices are fair. considering the time s
and the city, and as this contention of
ours has been reinforced by fifteen
merchant tailors who have resigned
these agreements without contro-
versy, the union asks the Merchant
Tailors' Exchange to resign the bills
of prices as they now stand
However, we accede to your con-
tention that certain employing tailors
should be given second-class bills
OF prices in place of class,
and we will make this change if you
meet US on the above proposition
Alleged Act of Garment Worker.
while waiting reply from the Mer-
chant Tailors' Exchange a represen-
tative of the Garment Workers
Union got in touch with the exchange
This union makes the cheaper class
of clothing. He offered a proposition
to make work for some Of the firms
and to take the whole exchange into
his union.
This was gross violation of the
ethics of unionism. Immediately fol-
lowing the Interference of the gar
ment worker the journeymaa taiIors
received a Short note of two lines,
saying: Your communication deliv-
cred to me this am. was read before
meeting of our exchange today and
voted down as unsatisfactory"

need of immediate transportation
of supplies and ammunition is in
fnitely less pressing, ard the end
of the administration is in sight,
the railroads naturally balk at the
idea of purchasing cars at the alb
normal price. Therefore, pending
the completion of the order-there
are 1000 cars yet to be made-the
railroad administration is holding
the cars here and is not assigning
them to railroad companies.
Probably when the late summer
grain begins to move. busy time
for the railroads, many of these
cars will be sent to relieve the
scarcity. The Bettendorf company
claims that in putting them out
at the price they are charging the
government, the gain to the manu-
facturer is less than that made in
producing cheaper cars under nor
NAL conditions Of prices, wages,
and labor supply. The company at
present is not operating up to it's
capacity, which is 25 cars per day,
because furnishing storage track
for $500 cars would greatly crowd
the local yards, if indeed it would
be possible, and so the cars must
be moved away before a great
number more may be made.

MANY HUNDREDS
OF CARS AWAIT
SHIPPING ORDER
Tri-City Yards Full of Them With
More TO Come, But They Are
Not AppOrtiOned.

Nearly 500 box cars of the finest
kind ever produced are being held
in yards of the Rock Island lines
and the Burlington railroad in
Rock Island, Moline ard Daven-
port. while awaiting assignment to
railroad companies.
They were ordered in May by
Railroad Administrator McAdoo
from the Bettendorf company.
which is at present turning out
between II and Is cars per day.
The order of the government call
ed for 5000 cars, and of this num-
Der 900 have already been produc-
ed. The Carolina, Clinchfield &
Ohio railroad was allotted 800 OF
them some time ago, while those
remaining, with, the Gaily addi-
lions, amounting at the present
time to 500, fill side tracks in the
local yards.
The peculiar superiority of these
cars lies in the amount of steel
used in their construction, as they
have steel frames and much steel
reinforcement along the sides.
They are 40 feet in length and of
the standard width, with a capacity
of 100000 pounds, a Bit above the
average. Their cost &c the govern
ment is $4,000 each.
1t is believed that this price, in
being so per cent above the prices
normally charged for freight cars,
is one reason for their not being
assigned to railroads. as the rail-
roads do not wish to take on the
more extensive rolling stock As
a war measure, supervised and
paid for by the government, they
thought It all right. Now that the
