me tell you something of why they
are detected, disillusioned and why
they may easily fall prey to radical

He then told of how he was
aroused to the necessity for this
work by some poignant experiences
he had going through Ellis Island
disguised as an immigrant, just to
learn something of the circum-
stances under which thousands up
root themselves from their homes,
sacrificing everything they own, in
order to come to America. that
magic land pictured TO them in rosy
hues by exploiters more interested
in stufing their pockets with gold
than in humanitarian motives.
Understanding their own language
Mr.. Schlact mingled with the imml-
rants throughout their trials at ad-

thousands had been induced to mi

which has swindled them of every
thing they owned before taking them

The preliminaries are now being COM
pleted for the very important conference
in reference to the railroad labor con.
troversy. There is a general feeling OF
confidence that somehow or other the
matter will he adjusted, though we must
proceed on the theory that the subject
can not be disposed of in moment.
There will, no doubt, be many con
Trajectory reports sent out as to the
proceedings. There will lie moments
when it may look Ike a settlement, and
then AGAIN like a disagreement. And the
markets of this country win fluctuate
from time to time in accordance with
these rumors.
Today the stock market was firm dur
iag the greater part of the session, with
but a few exceptions, which have been
under pressure, especially from the To-
cal professional element. Among these
NAV be mentioned American Sugar and
Republic Steel.
The oils continue to be the popular
group, with Pacific Oil and Texas Com
pany occupying the position Of prom
inence.
Among the specialties' Corn Products
and Famous Players have been leading.
The rails have been well supported and
with any encouraging news from the con-
ference the demand for this groun VIII
more than likely increase materially.
We continue to look forward with con-
fidence and would take advantage of re-
actions to accumulate stocks.

sion of the county council today.
All Of the councilmen voted to authorize
The bond issue for the road work on
West Washington street, Indiana avenue,
Madison avenue, Sherman Drive, River
side avenue and others.
Councilman Byers in opening the dis
Cussion on the Snider & Rotz contract
with the county, said:
"It has been charged IN the public
print and not denied that the county has
a contract with Snider & Rotz similar
to the one held by the CITY school board
which has been declared Illegal by the
State board Of accounts"
County Auditor Leo X. Fesler said two
contracts had been made and he pro-
duced the records which showed that on
Jan. 13, last, one contract was made
with Snider & Ritz as consulting engi-
neers for the making of all plans and
specifications for public buildings and
TO assist in seeing that all work was
done according to contract. For this
work the contract provided that the firm
should receive per cent as fees. The
records showed that another contract was,
made with J.. a. SniCer as professional
advisor and for that service he was to
receive 1 per cent of the total cost
Of the construction Of buildings.
1--WE have Snider & Roach employed
as a firm in the capacity of consulting
engineers, and then we have a member
of the firm receiving 1 per cent as adj
visor. That makes the total Of per
cent" Mr.. Byers said.
Mr.. Fesler stated that no claims had
been filed under those contracts.
Il don't care to put this down on rec
ord" Mr.. Byers said, "but l think we
should not enter into contracts that have

The Pullman dividend for the present
