DIG KANSAS COAL STRIKE COST HUGE
Is IncaIcuIable But Staggering,
Officials Say.
WOrkmen Have Lost $90,0OO,.
600 in Wages Alone.

Washington, Aug. 1.-THE cost of
the railroad strike is incalcuIable. but
staggering.
This was the opinion today of gov
ernment officials who sought some
comprehensive idea of how much the
strike is costing the country.
The striking railway shopmen have
lost forty working days since laying
down their tools on July l. Approx
nately 400. 900 men are out, according
to union officials. and on basis of an
eight hour day. they have lost 12S
million working hours. At 70 cents an
hour this would have netted them
S89.600,000.
What the strike is costing railroads ).
thru impaired equipment, loss Of
business and strike guards. can only
be a matter of conjecture.
What the strike is costing shippers,
particularly shippers of perishables
like fruit and vegetables. also is prob
lematical. All authorities are agreed.
however. that it is staggering.

Five Pittsburg Companies in
Agreement to Operate.
Several Other Operators in
Peace Negotiations.

Pittsburg, Kan, Aug. 17.-Agrec-
ments have been signed with five coal
mine operating companies or firms for
the resumption of work, it was an
nounced by George l.. Peck, provi-
sional president of the Kansas district
U. NJ. w. A, this morning.
Mr.. Peck said that the mines affect
ed would eventually employ 300 men.
About 100 men will go TO work i'm
mediately.
The operators concerned are inde-
pendents, that is, not members of the
Southwestern Interstate Coal OPP
orators association. Their mines are
in the class between the big deep
mines. practically all of which are op-
Grated by association members, and
the "dinkies'' which employ only a
few men and are sunk to work out
small areas left between workings of
the big companies A considerable
part of the product of these secondary
mines is purchased by the large COM
panies altho some of the coal is put on
the local market
The companies or firms which have
signed up are: Sinlion & Cumiskey,
P. & r. G. Coal company. Liberty Coal
company. Fleming & Kilger and the
Stocker Coal company.
President Peck said that he was
conducting negotiations today with
several other operators
At the mines affected by the agree
ment some men were at work today
cleaning up preparatory to production
of coal. It is probable that actual
digging of coal will begin tomorrow
or Saturday

under par-but he slowed up consid-
erably on the homeward journey and
finished two up on Bob Cruikshank
of Westfield. n. J. French was four
up on John Golden of Tuxedo in a
mediocre match.
Sarazen 30 equalled the course rec
ord for the first nine. Beautiful ap-
proach shots, followed by deadly put
ting. gave the Pittsburgh youth his low
score He was four upon Cruikshank
at the turn and increased his lead at
the tenth but the New Jersey star got
under way and took the twelfth. thir-
teenth. fourteenth and fifteenth holes.
This cut Genes lead to one up, but
he won the seventeenth and halved
the final hole.
Cruikshank is the first golfer to
outplay Sarazen on the last nine holes
of the course during the tournament.
Gene shot a SO for the morning round
while Cruikshank's card totalled IL,
three strokes under par.

GIRL SHOOTS HER SISTER
Tragedy Occurs on Farm When Chill
drcn Are Left Alone.

Fort Scott, Kan, Aug. 17.-While
Mr.. and Mrs. Fred Baker. living on
a farm ten miles south of Fort Scott,
were in Garland yesterday afternoon
their 12-year-old daughter. Mildred
Febe Baker pointed a shotgun thru a
window of their home and shot and
instantly killed her S-year-old sister,
Margaret, who was playing with n
broom in the yard. The top of the
child's head was blown off.
Seeing what .he had done. Mildred
gathered up the twin babies of the
family who had been left in her
charge and went to a coal dump some
distance from tte house. 1t is thought
by some she left home in an effort to
reach a neighbors house and report
the tragedy. but she was found hours
later in the dump with the babies.
A neighbor passing the Baker pla ce
discovered the body of tn child lying
in the yard and finding the house
abandoned reported the facts to the
parents in Garland.
Coroner Young. after investigating
the facts announced his conviction
that there was no intent on the part
of Mildred to kill her sister; that she
used the gun in play and is innocent
of any malice.

! was much about the educational side
OF the fair. Thus:
What They Want.
"A solid week of education and enter
tainment.
Thirty educational departments of
interest to every farmer and stock
raiser and their families.
The fair that helps boys and girls
be better farmers.
The fair that helps make life on the
farm more easy and profitable
A million-dollar livestock show.
The fair where you can learn and
gain new viewpoints, new ideas, and
form new ideals.
The friendliest fair on earth.
Eastman went on to say: I'VE try
to make this fair an institution of
learning for folks of all ages, as defi-
nItely part of the states educational
system as the public schools. If we
simply amused the people, or made
amusement the chief aim of this fair.
we would not grow as we do. and we
ore growing.
Mix Fun and Intcress.
but" continued Eastman, "a fair
must not make the mistake of being
too coldly educational, teachy and
dull; it must not try to cram educa-
ton into people; it must mix a lot of
fun and interest with its educational
features I can illustrate what mean
by describing the eight home-demoR-
stration displays we are to have at
the fair this year. SIX are to- be PIT
on by the farm bureaus of different
counties, and will be in charge of the
women demonstration agents of those
counties; two will be put on by the
State Agricultural college. All are
highly educational, intended to show
the development of activities for wo-
men in Nthe state, thru the farm bu-
reau, and yet they will be very inter
esting. Any county fair that is look
ing for new things to attract people,
especially women. can easily put on
displays similar to these
After going into county exhibits,
Mr.. Macdonald writes:
a Tribute to Phil Eastman.
The editor of one of the newspapers
in Topeka said to me: Phil Eastman
knows more men, women and children
in Kansas than any other man in the
state. We all know him as Free-Fair
Phil He is the best mixer 1 ever
knew. You've seen his smile; well,
it never comes off. During fair week
he sits every day, and all day and all
evening, at an open window in his Of
flee on the grounds, and there is not
/ a minute when he isn't shaking
hands. I've seen them waiting in line
to get to him, and even the children
cali him Phil He seems to know -ev-
cry exhibitor and conceSSionaire on
the grounds, from the negro boy SELL
ing peanuts. up to Colonel Hazlett of
Eldorado, who exhibits $4,000 worth
of pure-bred Herefords, and there
were 6s576 exhibitors on the grounds
la Il year, from seventy-two counties
of kansas and sixteen different states.
That is the spirit that makes our fair
bget across in such a big way.
When L repeated that to Eastman n
he said: That's the way. to run a
fair. I'd rather be short on exhibits
and long on friendliness than to be
short on friendliness and long on ex-
hibits. A fair should make every ef-
fort to have that friendly touch be-
tween patrons, and exhibitors and the
fair managers. 1 wouldn't have a
man on the grounds with a surly look
or a short answer"

hike GAS PRICES
Two Companies Want Increase
of 5 Cents Per 1000 Feet.
Application To Go to Kansas p.
q. C.. Late Today.

Representatives of the Kansas Nat
ural gas company and the Empire
Natural Gas company (the old Wicf-
ita NaturaD were in Topeka today to
file an application before the state
public utilities commission for per-
mission to increase the price of gas
i've cents a thousand cubic feet to all
distributing companies served III
Kansas. 1t was expected that the ap-
plication would be filed late this aft
ernoon by Maj. T. j. Strickler, con-
sulting engineer for the companies.
The filing of this application is in
the fight of the pipe line companies
to increase the price of gas to distrib-
uting companies at the city gates
When the decision was made to in
crease the price some months ago the
public utilities commission went into
the state supreme court and asked for
a restraining order to prevent the in
crease unless approved, by the stnte
commission. The state supreme court
held that the matter came under the
jurisdiction of the state commission.
Appeal to U. S. Court
Last Saturday the pipe line com
panies obtained a writ or error from
the United States supreme court.
However, representatives Of the pip ;
line companies stated today that in
asmuch as it might net be possible to
get a decision from the United States
supreme court for year or more 1T
had been decided to come before the
state commission and ask for permis-
sion to make the increase.
The pipe line companies contend
that it is necessary for them to in
efficient service and also earn a fair
return on their DrODprtieS.
