LIQUOR RAIDS IN RUTLAND.
Much Liquor Sold in Egg Shells and in
Grape Fruit.

RUTLAND, Sept. 14.-Fedcral
agents in this city Saturday raided the
establishments of Nicholas Valenti,
corner of West and Evelyn streets and
Charles Lapointe, West street, and Sc
cured large quantities of whiskey, dis
titled spirits and hard cider.
Valenti's store travels under the
name of fruit market but liquor has
been sold over the counter masquer-
aiding as bananas and grape fruit. The
prohibition officers raided the place at
the end of fair week after several
drnnks had been nabbed on the street
as a result of free flowing hard
stuff. -
Under the pseudonym eggs" egg
shells filled with spirits were sold on
the fair grounds at so cents an egg.
The hen fruit sold in large quantities
and many healthy man was taking
his fall tonic by sucking eggs.
Liquor was sold over the counter
freely for the entire fair week and
transient visitors had no difficulty in
locating it. 1t is believed that two

MEAT PACKERS
WANT MORE CATTLE
viii Try to Devise Plans to Get Farm
ers to Raise More-Have Made
Their Business Public.


ATLANTIC CITY, Sept. l4.-Disin-
eliuation on the part of farmers to raise
cattle, owing to the cost involved, Is
causing a meat shortage in this country,
according to speakers at the opening ses-
sion here Yesterday of the annual con
yention of the American Meat Packers
association. ..a.
The convention, it was announced by
Thomas E. Wilson, Chicago, president OF
the association, will endeavor to devise a
plan to overcome this shortage. Mr.. Viii
son declared that the restriction of credit
and general financial stringency have
forced many producers to market their
livestock with resultant losses in money
as well as in production.
L. F. Swift, ir., Chicago, told the con-
vention that the big packers had made
every effort to give the American people
a clearer idea of the "unfailing, economi-
cal service rendered by the packers" I'm
the last II MONTHS he declared, mo
group of business men have disclosed the
fundamentals of their business so COM
pletelv to the public as have the Ameri-
can meat packers. After directing your
public relations for year and becoming
conversant with your affairs, ] can say
honestly that the whole packing indus
try, including the so-called small packer,
the middIe-sized packer, the big packer
and every other packer has as little to be
ashamed of and as much to be proud of
as any industry in the world. That is
why our policy of full self revelation has
paid dividends"

In Butte, after talking with some Of
the 4radicals. the writef gca the impress
sion that large vote would be cast for
both Debs and Christensen if their
names were placed on the ballot. 1t
takes 5000 signatures to do this, some
thing quite easy to get in the mining
camps. But it would take connivance on
the part of the Non-Partisan league and
labor chiefs TO start such a movement
and the consequence might be fatal to
the chances of Mr.. Wheeler and the
Non-Partisan league state ticket. For
the latter cannot win the state by their
vote alone-they must acquire at least
half of the Democratic ticket.
All these OBJECTIONS from the Demo
cratic ranks are expecting to. be made
up by the new votes that will be east
by former Republicans who are part
of the Non-Partisan league movement
and who in their anxiety to put the said
league in power viii vote the straight
Derpticratio ticket presidential electors
and all. Governor Cox's chances of car
rying the state are unquestionably bet
ter than those of Senator Harding.

SUPERB SINGING.

Wilson was exceedingly well rep
resented in Raleigh last evening and
heard marvellous singing by Amelita
Galli-C CurcI, the renowned Italidni
singer, who is accounted today as
possessing the best female voice in
grand opera.
Galli-Curci is most pleasing in ap-
pearance and manner as well as IN
voice She reminds one of the
lady in ye olden time ,as represented
in an olde daguerreotype.
She is exceedingly graceful with a
splendid figure, and ample pep and
demonstrates appreciation of all the
APPLAUSE given her and responds ac-
cordingly. She appeared several
times with encores, and sung for the
audience the old familiar songs so de-
lightful to the heart of every south
erner in perfect English and pro-
nunciaton.
Her voice accords with flute per-
fectly, and her support on the flute
and the piano by Manuel Berenguel
and Homer Samuels was most haTmo'
nious in their cooperation.
These entertainments are being
brought to Raleigh by the Rotary
Club which is contributing much tc
the development of the love for
high order of talent among our
people.

Approve Tex of Letter to Dutch
Government.

Paris, Jan. 21.-The supreme coun-
Gil has approved the text of letten
to the Dutch government asking for
the extradition of the former German
emperor. The general expectation in
French circles S that Holland VIII re-
fuse to deliver the former monach.
1t is pointed out in supreme coun-
Gil circles that in case the Dutch
government is disinclined to deliver
Count Hohenollern it has a founda-
ton for its resistance in the fact
that offences named in the peace
treaty, namely, Grimes against in
ternational morality and the sacred
ness of treaties" are not provided
for in the Dutch laws nor the treaties
between Holland and the allied pow
ers regarding extradition.
1t is said that the lettep to the
Dutch government was drafted by
Frenchmen, who used clauses from
a similar letter drafted last July by
the American delegation At the
same time the supreme council ap
proved the text of letter to Ger
many demanding the surrender of
those guilty of wan crimes, as pro-
vided for in the peace treaty.
