WHITES QUIT AS
NEGROES RETURN
TO ST CKYARDS

Chicago. Aug. Guarded by
state troops, the police and deputy
sheriffs, 10000 negroes who have
been exiled in their homes for
nearly two weeks because Of race
riots, returned to their work in
the plants of the packing compan-
les at the stock yards today.
A majority of the negro work
men were transported to the stock
yards from the black belt" in
special elevated trains.
One hundred and fifty white ma
chinists employed by Swift and
company. walked out as the ne
groes entered the plant. This was
the only manifestation of race
prejudice exhibited during the
early hours Of the day.
Three hundred negroes who ap-
piled to the packers for work were
turned away and it was announc-
ed that no additions to the negro
forces would be made at present.
When the negroes went to work
100 white workers went on strike.
Officials Of the stock yards labor
council announced at noon that
the return Of the negro workmen
might result in a general strike.
The white men, It is said, objected
to the negroes largely because
majority were not members of the
union. The white men also COM
planned tLat white workers were
searched for weapons while ne
groes were not.

COUNTY TEACHERS
GIVEN IL PER CENT
MORE LAST SEASON

Annual report of the county SUI
perintendent of schools demanded
by the state before Aug. 10, has
been completed and is ready for
forwarding, according to G. E.
Plat, Mercer county school head.
The summary shows some in
teresting figures. For instance
the average length of time lost
during the last school year, 1918
1919, due to the influenza epidemic
was 80 days.
Comparison of season salary
average for 1917-l91S shows
$547.S2 and last year, 191S-1919.
$593.53, an increase estimated By
Mr.. Plat at IL per cent. 1t is
interesting to note that during this
time salary paid men teachers
came down because of the shortage
of male instructors. This was due
to the fact that the majority of
men sought other, more lucrative,
positions.
Year before last 100 teaching
positions were filled by the various
district boards and the county SUI
perintendent. Last season the
number was 1856. Mr.. Plat esti-
mates the number to be about the
same this year
The report shows that in 1917
1918 total enrolment in county
schools, including grades and high
school was 1850. A decrease, due
to the war, was noted last year
when the aggregate was 3,765.

SOAKING RAINS
ARE OF Benefit
And Rock Island Southern Runs
Right Along To the Wonder Of
All BehOlders.

Probably the heaviest rainfall of
the year was recorded yesterday
when the countryside about Aledo
was deIuged by what closely re-
sembled a cIoudburst.
And miracle of miracles, through
it all the Rock Island Southern
rode serene-not on time it's true,
but only about a half hour or an
hour off schedule. And at other
times recalled distant thunder of
an approaching storm caused the
deepest CONSERVATION at the Ed
wards river power house at Math-
erville, followed by a cessation of
power and a tieup of hours-even
days-befoFe normal conditions
were resumed.
The autoist who happened to be
unlucky enough to be out in the
country during the storm yester-
day found it hard going on roads
which resembled veritable boys Of
mud and water.
But it was a most welcome rain
to all, nevertheless. 1t brought
cooling breezes and proved of thou
sands of dollars value to farmers,
benefiting both corn and pasture.
The latter, due to the hot, dry
weather, was becoming more and
more scarce and many farmers
had already been forced to begin
feeding hay and other winter
feeds.

Chicago, Aug. MANY people
are disappointed at the failure OF
$176 wheat. A big row about liv-
ing costs is created but nothing is
done at the root The 8 cent open
ing upturn killed the bear side
yesterday. Locals also cannot fg-
ure the rail strike outlook If a
rail strike, western shippers may
not be able to fill September con-
tracts. This means refusal to
make further sales until the rail
trouble is settled. q. s. leaders are
evidently under desire of pleasing
the farmers and yet If the rail
unions go much further they will
run the country, 1t is between
the rail brotherhood and the grain
belts. The recent attack of nerves
may be repeated at any time. Corn
and oats are deemed break pur-
chase. No. 2 mixed corn is $1.69
and apparently has further bull
life of IL cents. Two dollars for
old corn being the limit. Traders
would like to put December corn to
$170. They like the buying side.
The southwest was hot yesterday,
Kansas 1O2, Missouri and Oklahoma
100. Cash corn was unchanged to
2 cents higher and oats unchanged
cent higher. There are no de-
tails as to the claims Of 212 million
ats worked in past five days.
The railroad strike is so serious
that all who have oats sold for
August shipment should make spe-
ciaI effort to get them out now.
The Illinois state grain inspec-
ton department is unable to obtain
samples of grain from cars ON the
c. M. & St P. tracks. Strike APP
pears to be on and strikers will not
permit inspectors to open or close
cars on track, there are about 76
cars on track previously inspected
with doors open.
The railroad wrangle is bulling
corn shorts afraid Of small re-
ceipts. Very hard to trade in Sep
TENDER corn.
September corn strong on senti-
ment Of strike at Argo. About
100 white employees of Hammond &
Co. at U. S. yards walked out this
morning as negro workers re-
turned.

The Day in Davenport

Glad to See Car.-"Why 1 was
actually lonesome for the old bus"
This is what the first Davenport
mOtOrman to take a car out of the
barns yesterday said. He is w R.
Balloon, 1924 Rockingham road.
Il want to take out the first Oak
dale car. Believe me, it's the best
run in the city and you can say
for me that I'm mighty glad to
get back to it."
Mr.. Balloon has operated a car
in Davenport for the last II years
He actually beamed all over as
he climbed onto the car platform
and gave the controller a slap OF
real comradeship.
Mr.. Balloon and E. r. Steckel,
2404 Bowditch street, were the first
of the street car employees to get
back to the barns.
GirIssAre Back.-Vera Thompson

signs and the hope of a star-lit ca
reer with the movies is gone. They

AGAIN JUSTICE
HAS SLIPPED UP
Rock Islanders Held as Bootleg
gers in Mercer County Jail
Said to be Wrong Parties.

Witnesses brought here for the
purpose of Identifying William En-
mer and Alexander Lawrence, Rock
Island men held in the county jail
for bootlegging, declared that En-
mer and Lawrence were not the
men who peddled booze from an
automobile throughout the country
side south of Aledo several weeks
ago.
Emmer and Lawrence are held
under $500 bonds each. They viii
be released as soon as the neCes-
sary legal steps can be taken. The
pair has been in custody for about
two weeks.
Just preceding the arrest OF En-
mer and Lawrence by members Of
the sheriff's force Of Rock Island
county, Sheriff John P. Fleming re-
ceived a telephone message from a
point about four miles south and
east of Aledo, the speaker giving
the name of a well known farmer
OF that vicinity. He stated that
two men in an auto were selling
intoxicating liquor to whoever had
the price on a certain country road.
The birds had flown when the
sheriff arrived on the scene, how
ever. but the number OF the ma
chine was secured from farmers
who had observed the strangers.
Sheriff Fleming notified Sheriff
John Miller of Rock Island and
within a few hours Emmer and
Lawrence were picked up as occu-
pants of the car bearing the fate
full number. No liquor could be
found however. There seems to be
a slip somewhere. but where, is the
question puzzling Sheriff Fleming.
Testimony of the witnesses and
the Identification trial took place
before Assistant States Attorney
D. A Hebel yesterday.

PICNIC IN A PARK

members of the Aledo high school
class of 1918.
About twenty-five members of
eighteeners gathered this morning
at North park for the first annual
meeting, out of which a permanent
alumni organization is hoped for.
There were SO members Of the
class, but several have scattered so
as to make attendance today i'm
possible.
1t was first, planned, according
to Miss Nina Yanatta, president Of
the class, to motor to the country
where picnic baskets prepared by
the girls would be spread. Due TO
yesterdays heavy rain, however,
this plan was abandoned.

SCARED and flabby pigskin, laid
away reverently in some dark cor
ner.
One team-11 good men and
true-stars of AIedo high school
teams of 1916 and IT, has already
been organized. Chestily they have
come forward with a challenge to
any and all Mercer county grid
iron aggregations that may be
formed in the interim preceding
fair week.
There should be sufficient ma
terial in and about Aledo to fur
nish a formidable opposing eleven,
with former stars of William and
Vashti who may be located here
as a nucleus.
If another team is formed for
the game with the. high school
men, the contest will probably be
staged on sport day, Saturday.

CORN NERVOUS
DUE TO WIDELY
VARIED CAUSES
Governments Policy Causes In
easiness as Does Supply
Threat of Rail Tieup.

Chicago. ILL.,, Aug. Although
nervousness in the grain and pro-
vision markets over the govern
ment's wheat policy continued to-
day. price changes depended chief
-ly on other factors. In corn, the
principal influence was the pros
pect that receipts would be shut
OF by the increasing railroad
strike. Opening corn prices, which
varied from the same as yester-
days finish to 1%c higher, with
September 1S21z to 1887, and
then by material upturns all
followed by a temporary sag and
December, 1.5113 to 1.521z, were
around.
Later the market, except for
September delivery, reacted sharp
ly, owing to the federal commits
sion report that foodstuffs were
plentiful The walkout of white
employees at the stock yards exert
ed a bearish influence and so, too,
did talk of railroad embargoes on
wheat, so that perishable freight
might be handled The market
closed unsettled, IL cent net low
er to AS cents advance, with Sep
TENDER S1.86 to s1S69s, and De-
cember $3.50 to $1.509s.
Seaboard buying gave independ-
ent strength to oats. After open
ing &c to 1Ac up, including Sep
TENDER at 1874 to TAG, the market
continued to harden.
Provisions were lifted = by ad-
vances in the hog market. The
main rise was in pork, which in
some cases commanded LIS a bar
rel more than on yesterdays
finish.
