Connection With Making of
Bevo.

In connection with the reopening
OF the Bevo manufacturing plants
August A. Busch, president OF An
heuser- Busch, announced that he had
completed plans to establish a ifiixed-
feed manufacturing plant that will
produce 100000, 900 pounds OF cattle.
horse and hog feeds annually and
give employment to 100 or more men
and women.
Busch said that in the readjust-
ment OF his business, on account OF
the suspension of brewing. plans are
being worked ont to utilize the cir
tire dried grains by-products of the
Revo. malt candy and malt strip
business. amounting to more than
100000 pounds a year, as the base
OF mixed feeds. Dried grains, used
| in breweries. contain approximately
Is per cent OF proteins, one of the
| necessary constituents of balanced
iced manufacturers as the basic in
gredient for their products.
| Since the suspension OF brewing
| December | there has been a. short
age ri dried grains for mixed-feed
purposes. Busch said that at re-
cent convention of the Association
of Feed Control officials of the Unit
ed States at Pittsburgh, it was dis
closed that one of the serious prob
lens confronting the feed manufac-
turers was how to find substitutes
ior dried brewers grains.
Since. with the addition to our
Revo business of our malt candy and
malt strip business. we shall produce
a larger quantity of dried grains than
ever before. we have decided, in Or
der 10 give employment to the great
est possible number OF St. Louis peo-
pie. to go into the mixed-feed bust
ness on a large SCALE Busch said.
The .AnheuserB Busch plants have
ample manufacturing and transporta
ton facilities for four new St. Louis

BERGER WITH SOCIALISTS
GETS 20 YEARS
Defendants Make Long Pleas for
Party, But Judge Lands Gives
s Maximum.

Chicago, Ill.,, February 2o.-.A'
maximum prison sentence of twenty
years was imposed by Federal Judge
Lands today upon Congressman
elect Victor l.. Berger of Milwaukee
and four other Socialist leaders, who
in final tfeas ffiitkened themselves to
historys greatest martyrs. The
given men, convicted tof conspiracy to
obstruct the draft in violation of the
espionage act, succeeded in obtain
ing release on $4,000 bail from
Judge Aschuler, and declared they
would carry their legal fight to the
United States Supreme Court, if nee
essary.
Besides Berger, publisher of the
Milwaukee Leader, the other convict
ed men are:
Rev. Irwin St. John Tucker, lectur-
err and writer; Adolph Germer, ma
tional secretary of the Socialist par
ty; J. Louis Engdahl, editor OF the
American Socialist, and William +.
Kruse, head OF the Young People
Socialist League.
Judge Lands overruled motions
for new trial, for a stay OF execu-
ton and for bail, but granted the fill
ing of petition for writ OF error.
Counsel for the convicted men then
went before Judge Samuel +.
A1schuler of the United States Cir
cult Court OF Appeals and asked for
bail.
Judge Alschuler said he hesitated
to grant the motion for bail lest the
defendants continue their socialistic
agitation. He interviewed each of
the five and then granted them bail,
increased from $4,000 to $4,000,
with the understanding that they re-
frain from resuming their former
acts and utterances during the PEN
dency OF their case. William Bross
Lloyd, Chicago millionaire, who was
Socialist candidate for United States
Senator at the last election provided
surety for the five.
Berger and his former assistants
took full advantage of the customary
inquiry of the judge, whether or not
they had anything to say before sem
fences were passed, and the Milwau-
kee congressman elect finished read
ing his 2ooo-word typewriter state
ment.
The MAR was an inpefialistie and
commercial one. Berger declared,
and over hall the white race is in
a chaotic state of evolution out OF
which must devotion an orderly So
cialist reign within five-years."
He declared that if the present
System" continued, the Capitalists
will surely create anarchisn' and
would prepare this country for a
revolution such as the world has
never seen before
THE so-called League OF Nations
is simply thin screen behind which
the capitalistic classes OF the winning
side are dividing the spoils. said
Berger, who also declared that
"Americansm is now synonymous
with capitalism"
Irwin St. John Tucker in his plea
compared himself and the others to
Jesus Christ before Pontius PLATE.
U,uge Lands. at the conclusion o:
the defendants statements, without
other comment, sentenced the five to
Leavenworth Penitentiary, each for
twenty years.

New York, Oct 1S.-When you are
all wrapped up in one of this winters
stunning new wraps you certainly are
bound to be some prize package.
The loveliest ones are fashioned out
of that eXquisitely supple velour fabric
family which varies in name only in
the length and thickness of its pile or
nap, and is called respectively duve-
TYNE, and duvedelyne with a silk fin
ish beachbloom and cashmertine with
a wool finish. In either caSe-silk or
wool-it is bound to be quick finish
for your bank roll to indulge too reck-
lessly in these desirable materials.
Evora and fortuna are two other sort
velvety fabrics striped in corduroy
fashion-the evora vertically and the
fortuna diagonally. How typically
true of anything apertaining to fortuna
that 1t should go off on the bias rather
than keep to the straight and vertical
path.
In combination with these materials
lavish adornment of mole. beaver,
squirrel, sable or grey. Kolinsky, cara
cul and Australian opossum make of
each mantle a thing of beauty and
joy for the cold months of the year.
Coats Along Cape Lines.
Many of the coats cling to the cape
or dolman lines and wrap volumi-
nously and drapefully about the figure.
One striking exception to this rule
is a taupe duvetyne trimmed in mole.
1t is made in rather basque effect
with a deep cape collar of mole and
narrow strips of this neutral toned fur
stripping it at close intervals. The skirt
with huge pockets of the mole is
gathered to the basque just below the
natural waist line and shows a cart
ridge arrangement of the gathers over
each hip.
Two startlingly fearless furless
oil in nf fin ri 1aG
mantles is an Anac peachbloom and
Pompeian duvetyne. The first has as
sole trimming a deep cape collar
reaching to the waistline. its entire
surface diamond stitched in self-toned
silk. This collar, soft and supple, may
be crushed up close and high about
the neck and the face to meet the fury
of wintry blasts and the approval of
the passerby. The deep cuffs on the
sleeves are stitched the same. More of
peian duvetyne picked out here and
there with striking oblong motifs of
black chenille.
Far be it from me to give away any
secrets of the trade, but owing to that
strange psychology of the tickle fe-
ever something different and new"
little old last years colors have all
been re-christened with a nice new
set of names.

WANTED TO Be FAMOUS"
Pierre Plotted Death of Both Wilson
and McAdoo, Evidence Shows.

Leavenworth, Kan, Oct. 1S.-It was
brought out in the testimony intro
duced in the United States district
court here Friday in the trial of Pietro
Pierre, a former prisoner at the fed
eral penitentiary, that he had serious
intentions to attempt the ASA ssina-
ton of President Woodrow Wilson and
William C. McAdoo. former secretary
of the treasury. The testimony showed
that Pierre is an italian anarchist and
member of the italian branch of
the Industrial Workers of the World,
with headquarters in Chicago.
Pierre was the first I. w. w. pris-
oner brought to the penitentiary here
to serve sentence for attempting to
obstruct the American army draft. He
was convicted in Minnesota and was
brought in on an 1S-months' term.
John Lovullo, an Italian prisoner,
serving a sentence for violation of
interstate shipment laws, was the
first witness for the government, and
he testified that Pierre had frequent
conversations with him in which
Pierre urged him to join the l. w. VS.
and that Pierre informed him that he
had been chosen by lot at a secret
meeting of 1. w. WIS to kill President
Wilson. Lovullo said that Pierre
mentioned that he had no relatives to
live for and that he would become
famous like the assassin of King
Humbert of Italy if he would kill
President Wilson and Mr.. McAdoo.
Lovullo communicated this to the
prison officials. who had Samuel Sem
pravino, another Italian prisoner, get
in with Pierre. and he was made a
confidanL of the same information, the
testimony showed.
An Italian I. w. w, who was
brought here from Chicago a year ago
with ninety 1. w. WIS, was named as
the man who conducted the drawing.
This man had a year term and got out
two months ago. He was in the court
room this afternoon, having come here
to watch the trial.
Pierre. the defendant, tried to take
notes when the Italian prisoners were
testifying against him and he showed
uneasiness.
Ten of the eighteen former soldiers
and disciplinary barracks prisoners
who were indicted by the grand jury
Thursday. were brought into court this
morning and arraigned for trial. They
all pleaded not guilty to printing and
passing counterfeit government pay
vouchers. They also asked for Inn
mediate trial Judge Pollock in
formed them that they would all be
tried at one time and that a special
term of court would be held for the
trial in the near future.
