No Tainted Ads. NINTH'YEAR, NO. 18. CONTRIBUTIONS TO FIRE SUFFERERS REACH SI 4,000 t BALES OF GOODS BEING FOR WARDED TO STRICKEN DIS TRICT BUT MONEY IS REQUIRED MORE THAN ANYTHING ELSE. Money, more than anything; else, Is no* needed tor the relief of the flre siifTerers of the uorthern counties. This was the decision reached in the noon meeting of the citizen's commit tee which is directing the work of re lief from I>etrolt. The needs of the triokeij people ure such thut supplies and provisions must be purchased for them close at hand. Up to noon Wednesday, the total of money contributed, outside of th r city's appropriation of 18.000, which the council unanimously voted Tues day evening, amounts to SO,OOO. Hev eral times this amount ought to be contributed by Detroit, the committee thiuks. So far, while individual bankers have contributed, no bank has as a corporation, subscribed to the fund. Director Bickuell, of the Red Cross, sent a communication to the local committee la which he outlined the needs of the sufferers and told of thy relief work now being done. Definite advices from J. D. Hawks have not been received, but he is expected to give the committee complete informa tion by Thursday noon. The receiving department of the committee. located in the Owen bund ling at Lafayette boulevard and Wayne st., has been swamp'd by the gener osity of the people of Detroit. The big store room has tilled up with clothing and shoes of every kind and description. a Already 20 big packing case's of goods have i»een *e?tt away and the. lotal will be close to 76 cases by nesday night. Mrs. it. ,M. Campau and a corps of enthusiastic assistants have worked with little rest sorting and packing goods. Most of the stuff eent in has been found available, but some garments and bedding have had to be thrown aside as unsuitable for use. Although the delivery wagons of five firms, .1. L. Hudson, NVwcomb-En dlcott Cos.. Peter Smith fc Sons. Tay lor- WOolfenden Cos. and Burnham Sloepol 6 Cos. have been busy collect ing contributions of clothing and such things, they have been unable to take till that was offered.

Thompson, uud Mr. Hally ia look ing after the mayor's Interests, i The suit is down for Immediate hearing, but owing to the pressing na ture of Mr. Thompson’s engagement •at the present time, Mr. Hally is work i ing to have the hearing postponed. “It has always been the practice In this court wheu an attorney Is engag ed elsewhere to -postpone a case, par ticularly when-neither of the parties is suffering by the delay,” Mr. Hally argued. “The case is a political one, anyway.” I “It is political on your part, but not on ours.” Mr. Hall retorted. "Mr. Thompson is going about the city re peating his liber every night. And jthen this flour-flushing mayor of ours is using the city’s lawyer to flght a private case.

The attorneys were given until Thursday morning, Mr. Hall to show !that the mayor Is repeating the alleg ed libel against his client, and Mr. Hally to show (hat the mayor hasn’t mentioned Garner's name for weeks. “If Mr. Hall can show that the may or is repeating these charges I will bring the case on for immediate trial,” Judge Kohnerf announced.

NEW YORK, Oct. 21.—Just before the trial of Chas. W. Morse and Al fred H.

WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER ai, 1908. ABDUCTED JUDGE ESCAPES CAPTORS BY JOSE THRILLING STORY TOLD *Y MAN PURSUED BY FISHERMEN NIGHT RIDER*—SEES THEM HANG HIS COMRADE. MEMPHIS. Tenn., OcL 21.—Judge Taylor, who was supposed to have been killed by fishermen “night riders,” with Quentin Rankin, showed up near TlptonvUle, Tenn., 30 mlVwl from the scene of tne spot where ng was abducted, at 8 o'clock this morn ing. Judge Taylor, telling his story of the affair, says: “The night riders forced in our door at the hotel and at the polut of re volvers compelled us to dress. They then took us on horseback to. the edge of Reel foot lake. Here 1 watched them hang poor Capt. Rankin and then fire Into hla body. After they were satisfied that he was dead, they dlscused my fate and I had to stand by while they debated whether to hang me or keep me captive, hoping to force the Reelfoot Fishing Cos., stockholders, to concede free fishing on the lake. But those who favored hanging seemed to be winning the day when they pointed out they could not keep me prisoner without my know- Ing my prison and that this would lead to their being taken captive when I was freed. When 1 saw the day was going against me I determined to try for liberty. I broke from the two men who were holding me and ran. They followed slowly for they thought they could easily catch me. It was grow ing daylight and I knew that 1 made a fairly good target. 80 I plunged into the bayou that runs from the lake. Driven from the Water. L “1 used to be a good swimmer and I stayed under water as long as 1 could. When 1 came up they shot at me. 1 could not stay In the water longer and jumped on the bank. There came a volley of shots. God was with me and I was not hit, but 1 straight ened. threw up both hands reeled and fell face downward. 1 thought my ruse had failed wheu they fired at my piostrate body, but they missed. Thinking they had killed me. they de parted without crossing the bayou. “After an hour 1 cautiously moved and then got up aud walked through the forest. 1 spent last night in,the woods.” Gov. Patterson has already ordered soldiers to the neighborhood where the outrage occurred and the reward for the guilty ones has been increased from SIO,OOO to $12,000.

ICE FLOES GUIDES TO NORTH POLE, SAYS BALDWIN FAMOUS EXPLORER CALLS AT 4 WHITE HOUSE TO UNFOLD HIB UNIQUE PLAN OF DISCOVERY TO PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT. WASHINGTON, Oct. 21.—Satisfied that be haa at last solved the problem of discovering the north pole, E. P. Baldwin, the famous explorer, arrived at the White bouse today, to disclose his plans to President Roosevelt. Mr. Baldwin Is enthusiastic over the possibilities of success. He says the drifting ice floee will solve the problem. It bas been repeatedly dem onstrated that Ice packs follow a reg ular current from the Behring straits to Greenland. It Is his plan to go north in a steamship, Juat as Peary Is doing now. When he arrives in territory made dangerous by Ice, he would put on the ice floes which sur round the ship, casks of oil, fuel and food supplies. Then, when the break up comes lu the spring, if his ship should be crushed he and his meu would abandon the vessel and get on the floes, there to remain until the current had carried them around the pole. Mr. Baldwin says he would carry about 25 men and when the crush came divide them up Into parties and send them adrift on different floea. In this way, ho maintains, the discov ery of the pole would be an absolute certainty. CHILD DIES FROM SCALDS EIGHT-MONTHS-OLD TOT UPSETS POT OF BOILING COFFEE ON SELF.

NSW YORK. Oct 21.—011 and then aoaw more oil! That waa what every driver who took speed trials over the Vanderbilt cap course at daylight this morning said. And they had a right, too, for .they looked the part. Every man as |he c>»e In alter a trip around the 1 oouree looked as if he had stepped .from a swim In an oil tank. The reason was that the dust has j been so heavy oa the dirt roads of the course that the committee got busy last alfht and sprinkled them with oil. i They did more; they drowned the dust In oiL So much so that when the cats Started out this morning on speed trials they picked up so muck oil that fast time waa Impossible. The fastest time of the morning was made by Robertson la his Locomobile.! Ha made the course in 21:30, almost 1 three seconds slower than bis previous record. J. Florida, also driving a L»> J comobile, made the course la 24:63, f while Haapt, In his Chadwick, took bis I time after striking the oiled stretch, I aad flnlshed In II minutes. Foxhall Keene’s Mercedes started '■e# h fast round, but didn’t show up at the finish, passing up the trip over the oiled roads. Two Brasler cars made the rounds in slow time. Next to Robertson’s time was that made by Xmttgen. the German driver of Van derblit’s car. He went around the •malar part of the courae like a de mon aad repeated bis performance of yesterday morning, when he ran past the Weetbury .urn and had to come back.

AND'THK TRAM PLAYED THE NEW FOOTBALL FROM START TO FINISH. MIXINO IN FORWARD PASSES OF ALL SORTS AND PLAV INO THE MOST OPEN KIND OF A GAME. Watching the practice and humping along In lively style, though not In uni form, was young Mr. Watkins, the al leged victim of congestion of the brain. He it was regarding whom the corres pondents bad been sending out retire ment stories. He will be back at full back In a few days, never fear. It Is by no means certain that be will not play In the Ohio game. Capt. Schultz, fully eligible and In fine form, was passing the ball Following his men along as they swept down the field was the great Michigan coach, fat, happy, perspiring and enthusiastic. Such is the real situation on the uni versity field. t n Os course, the path to victory is still a long and thorny one when Penn’s obvious strength and ability are taken Into consideration. Yost's men are good, natural football players but they must make up a terrific handicap in experience before they can hope to cope with the great team that Is coming to Ann Arbor Nov. 14, bearing the hopes of the east. Yost’s aggregation contains but one man who has gone through the heat of conflict and shown himself as good In the real game as In the practice battle. Penn’s team will probably average 30 games of collegiate foot ball experience to the man. Michigan’s will hardly total seven by the time the whistle blows for the big test. COACHING CAN HARDLY MAKF UP FOR SUCH A HANDICAP AS THIS. REGARDLESS OF ITS ASTUTENEBS OR ITS FORCE. The mechanical knowledge, the lnatloct that leads each man to do the right thing at the right time without think ing can come only from habit and habit can be acquired In actual play only. It will take a lot of strategy to overcome thla deficiency. Last year a man who had gone into the big game for Michigan with but one actual collegiate battle under his belt, lost Michigan’s game by disre garding one of the coach’s instructions at a critical moment and nobody, not even the mentor himself, blamed the lad In the least This may occur again this year Perhaps Pennsylvania will run up the score on Yost’s green but willing hands even without such an error. From what ha saw of the men yes terday, however, the writer has been given ground to expect that, in tha remaining games of the aeaaon, Michi gan wUI have reaeon for nothing but pride in her team. If the preaent team can be kept together Penn will have enjeyed an awful football fight at any rata before aha gete through with tho game which Ann Arbor will aee noxt month. In the meantime Michigan has an In imunoss BOUT TONIGHT By TAD. NEW YORK.

CHECKER CHAMPIONSHIP NOW HOLDS THE STAGE KANSAS CITY. Oct. 2^. Ah a meeting of the Kansas City Cheat, Checker and Whtat cluo. the final arr angemeuta were made for a match game at cbeckera between Charles Y. Barker, of Boston, and Joseph A. Drouillard of Kansas City for the championship of America. The match has been pending for some time and the action taken yesterday makes it certain that the match will be played. With the championship at stake the two great checker generals will play 60 games, four games each day except Sunday, beginning Monday, Nov. 2. A side"bet of 92,000 in addition to the championship depends upon the outcome of the play. Flaying a 50-game checker match la no easy roarer and weeka must be spent in training for the event. The tax upon the mind and nerves is terrific and endurance is no mean factor in the contention. The matches are conducted in a very businesslike manner. A referee, two timekeep ers, and two seconds are a part of the equipment At the* end of five minutes the timers notify the player that hiH deliberations must come to an end and if he does not move wlthiq the next 00 seconds the game is forfeited. Charles Barker, the present holder of the title, has been its possessor for the greater part of 35 years. Onlyat Intervals have others been ahje U wrest the honor from'4ilm. The c.mmplonship of the world is usually the title of a Scotchman, as the minds of this race of men seems to be par ticularly well adapted to the intricacies of the game.

Stroh Brewery Co.jfsli DETROIT, MICH. league In baseball, placing under the ban «o many players that the cummin aiou will iu\e to levy its flues by the wholesale, If consistent. Ot course, it Is pretty certain tbnt nothing like this Is going to happen. The situation, however, serves to em phasise the fact that, In attempting to discipline players not under con tact, for their actions when on vaoa tion, the commission has bitten off more than it can masticate. Organised baseball undoubtedly de mands that ita playing forces remain obedient to their contracts and any lapses by which the Interests of the men s employers are prejudiced should naturally be punished. Further measures, especially when taJ<en in the case of ao trifling an of fense as that performed by tbe Sen ators and Sox, savor* strongly of per secution. As for the two champion clubs, their case only Illustrates the futility of an attempt to enforce the letter, though not the spirit of the law. In all probability this demonstra tion will do more than any other cause to bring leniency In the cases of the clubs hwich have already been form ally censured. Threats ot law gulls carry no terrors to the magnates. Their scheme of organization prohlb its interference by the courtH In this respects, for there Is no law which cun compel on employer to set to work and pay a man whom he does uot want. There hns never yet been discover ed a way to really beat the blacklist. The players’ union, a pet scheme of labor agitators and one often dis cussed in public prints, might be a weapon in the hands of the men, were they able to get together on a basis which would permit them to wield It. Past failures, however, made this scheme one in which the older heads among the players have little faith.

The footballs on their jerseys remind of an Indian hiding the ball under his Jersey against Harvard a few’ years ago and running the length of the field for a touchdown. Fake forma tions are helped by the Jersey decora tions. The wrong man has been tackled many times.

Hopke has all records beaten, to far Le known, the only Association player who in any way ap proaches his record being "Rabbit’’ Robinson, of Milwau kee. Hopke began his Association career in 1002 with Columbu". and then played with different Central league clubs. He was with Canton before going to In dianapolis a couple of seasons ago, since which time the only games that he has missed have been exhibition affairs before the regular eeaaon opened.

PHAETON FARES TO BELLE ISLE CUT, MAY BE ILLEGAL CONTRACT WITH PRIVATE COM PANY SAYS CITY SHALL MAIN TAIN SAME RATE—BREITMEY ER CRITICISES MAYOR. Phaeton fares to Belle Ule were attain Mayor Thompson's chief subject of discussion In his meetings Tuesday night. He paid particular attention to the clause In the contract of the city with the automobile company running to Belle Isle by which the city Is bound to maintain the same rate of fare as the auto concern. This contract was entered into by Commissioner BreitmeVer last spring after a series of meetings of the coun cil committee on parks and after that committee had decided that the (area from Jefferson ave. to the casino and aquarium shoul be five cents (luring the winter time. It Is, therefore, pos sible that the reduction to three cents ordered by» Commissioner Hlnchman may not be permanent. it was a rather expensive evening for the mayoral party, beverages of an intoxicating nature being on sale at each meeting place visited and the throats of the populace very dry from exposure to warm enthusiasm. The saloonlats do not overcharge the may •r much, though, so that Contracting Agent William Nagel got through Without “busting" the bank roll. Speechte. were made by the mayor it| Harnionla hall, Russell And Leland sts.; Schiller hall, Gratiot and St. Au* binaves.; Bush's Champlain and Bellevue-aves.; Tbeisen a, Van Dyke and Hendrle-aves., and In anlther sa loon at Harper and Gratlot-aves. To wind up the evening, the mayor danced a waltz or so at each of these halls: German Salesmen's, Duflleld, Golden's and the Detroit Wheelmen's. “Thompson must be a little familiar with graft or he would not he so quick to suspect It in everybody else." This Is the nearest approach to a bit ter remark against his adversary that Philip Breltmeyer has made during the campaign, and it came out in one of his meetings Tuesday night. There were seven meetings on the list, and at each the Republican candidate tol 1 hla hearers that Thompson had failed on the issue on which be was elected and haa no better prospect of succeed ing in the future. He criticised the mayor's methods in never consulting with Republican heads of departments on public matters, but only watching for opportunities to attack them. In two meetings in the Seventeenth ward, Breltmeyer ran up against ad verse sentiment created by his an nouncement that he will not reappoint Police Commlaaioner Smith. The big gest meetings of the evening were the tent gatherings at Mllwaukee-ave. and Beaublen-st., and at Trombly-ave. and Russell-st. “Thompson says he has held office 17 years and that the people should re elect him instead pf giving a business man a chance to solve the street rail way question," said Charles C. Simons in one of the tent meetings. “If any of you had been paying a roan for 17 <o work on a certain Job and he hhd not even made a start, wouldn't you put someone else on it?” BUFFALO BLOCK BURNS; LOSS AMOUNTS TO $300,000 BUFFALO, Oct. 21.—Fire destroyed a block and caused a loss of $200,00P In the business block bounded by Main, Washington, North Division and South Division sts.

WAGNER'S HERO. HANS SACHS. LEFT WRITTEN PROOF THAT THEY TAXED HIS PATIENCE. NUREMBERG. Bavaria, Oct. 21.—An interesting document has been discov ered here in the handwriting of Han* Sachs, the old Meistcrslnger and the hero of Wagner's famous opera. The cobbler had his troubles, as Is well known, but it has not been known that he had worries about domestic servants. Just as though he lived lu the twentieth century in New York or London. This is what the old poet wrote nearly four hundred years ago. “You cannot rely on them. You have to speak to them three time* boiore they reply to you. They turn their backs to their mistress and mak** mocking remartes about her, even In the presence of her guests. Their noses they carry so high that they .think they know everything better than their mistress. And they do exactly the opposite to what they are told. "They are only Industrious in the presence of their mistress, and when she Is away they go to sleep. You cannot trust them with the key. They eat whatever they can lay their hands on —they put their Angers In the pot. they nibble at eggs, cheese, butter, milk, bacon, fruit, and any other thing they can seize. And In the cel lar* they tipple with the beer and wffce and All up the vessels with water io that the loss will not be noticed. "If you scold them you are sure of mi Impertinent answer. Speak to them one W’ord and they answer you ten, and always Insist on haring the last word. And then when they are mad with their master or mistress they march off and cool their passion on the poor children with beatings and thwnckingß." ROBB LEAVES HOSPITAL; POLICE SEEK HIM Still herioufcly 111 from the bullet wound In his right breast, inflicted by tid. Chandler during a fight In the lat ter’s roadhouse Sunday morning, John Hobb paid bis bill in Orace hospital, Tuesday afternoon, and left without telling anyone where he was going. Kobb, it now develops, has been a fugitive for a month past, having es caped from Sheriff Peterson, of Al pena county, w-hlle being conveyed to Detroit to serve a sentence of VO days in the house of correction on a grand larceny Charge. He gave the sheriff the slip at Au Sable. Sheriff Peterson came to Detroit Tuesday on other business and was greatly surprised when he found that Robb had left the hospital, aa be ex pected to have the man turned over to the house of correction authorities as soon as he recovered. The police are looking-for Robb, but It Is thought he has been spirited away from the city by friends. There Is still anotber charge of grand larceny pending against him In Alpena, the sheriff says. Prosecutor Yerkes asys that the case against Chandler will probably fall through unless Robb is located. The case was not a strong one In the first place, he says, as the statements of wlftiesses all tended to show that Robb eras the aggressor. NEW COMPANIES INCORPORATED. LANSING.

The same artist's “Johannes Aeronlus” brought In Ber lin in 1786, one dollar at an aucLon of butch pictures. Now that the English travel so much It haa often surprised me that they have not Instated on a (treeter <l*. (tree of privacy and comfort In hotels. One family rises early, the other goes to bed late, and the chattering, laugh ing and coughing go on incessantly. All this discomfort comes from the communicating doors, which run through the whole floor of a hotel, and which are so badly fitted that ev ery sound can be heard through them.—'London Graphic.

Tha vanarabl* John Bigelow sent a latter to a meeting adareee ed by Messrs. Harmon, Francis and Herbert, of President Clave land’s cabinet In which he eaid there was need of an affective op position to tha Republican party, denounced a h.gh tariff, said no man was ever born who was fit to be Intrusted with absolute power and said Preaidant Roosevelt had “imposed” Mr. Taft’s candidacy on tha Republican party. Mr. Bryan, after making 16 speeches in Indiana to large crowds, made five speeches at night in Louisville, where he wae enthusiastically welcomed. He again said that purchase (of vot ers by the Republicans) ie now contemplated wherever a purchas able voter can ba found, demand ed that the Republican congres sional campaign commlttea say whether it would make public its receipts. Intimating that money “too much tainted” for the Repub lican national committee to accept wae being diverted to the “blind pool’’ of the congressional commit tee. He called the high tariff a panic breeder, saying all the pan ics of the forty-eight years had bean undtr high tariff. Mr. Kern, In Byracute, said commercialism had corruptad public, pulpit and press just as slavery had and that unless tha predatory interests were curbed national ruin was inevitable. Mr. Taft, tired by a strenuous day’s campaigning In Maryland and (West Virginia, will rest today and start out tonight for a tour of Indiana.

Y., upon which he proposes to erect a $75,000 playhouse. It will be R first-class vau deville house on the Keith circuit. Weber A Rush’s Bon Ton Extrava gant* company will be next week’s attraction In the popular Gayety thea ter. One of the surprises of the com pany's side-splitting closing burlesque, ‘The Bqurw Qirl’a Round-Up,” is the hair-raising, blood-curdling melodra matic finish. In which Quy Rawson, principal comedian of the company, does some serious acting which should cause him to be much sought after by the leading promoters of the “thriller’’ brand of plays next season. “The District Leader,’* Joseph E. Howard’s big success, will be offered iu the Lyceum next week under the di rection of Frank J. Sardam. While the piece is a musical comedy, It is claimed the dramatic Incidents hold the Interest of the auditor throughout. They have to do with the fight for a senatorshlp In New York, and inci dentally are two very prettily told love stories. Twelve musical numbers, all written In Mr. Howard’s catchleat vein, will be Introduced. In the Whitney next week will bo offered “Jack Sheppard, the Bandit King,” under the direction of A. H. Woods. The story tells of a young lad’s fight for honor against adverse circumstances; of how he Is falsely ac cused of crime and hounded by a poli tician who seeks to ruin him. He falls In with a crowd of bandits and be comes their daring leader, leading them through many thrilling battles and hold-ups, until he becomes the worst feared man of southern Cali fornia and Mexico. The play also de velops a sweet, wholesome love story and la enlivened with unctuous com edy. The action la fast, spirited and exceedingly thrilling. The program In the Lafayette this week Is a big success and Is drawing crowded houses. The realistic repro duction of the baseball game Is, of course, the principal drawing card, and It Is supplemented by numerous other features of a marked degree of excellence. Notable among the vau deville attractlona Is the work of Har ry Ouy and company in the “old tlmg clever owrk wit* the bottles and wine glasses, and hw wife’s singing are reminiscent of old-time minstrelsy. The moving pictures are all new and good, and the actologue drama. “The old, old story’’ Is a pro nounced hit. No better Investment foa a dime can bo found. “Everyone Is going Into vaudeville,'* has become a truism. But not every one gets there, and how very few are able to remain. Vaudeville Is a world by Itself. Democracy Is the slogan. You may have the greatest reputation in the theatrical profession and yet he no more respected than the merest beginner. Vaudeville has one rule— “make good.” If you can stand on your head In anew way, or put your feet in your breast pocket. If you can sing n song a little better than some one else, or Introduce anew step In your dance, you have a right to per form. Novelty! That's the secret. Porter J. White discovered It, and Is presenting the most daring and novel dramatic playlet in vaudeville. It Is called “The Visitor” and is the work of Oliver White, whose sketch “HU Wife’s Picture” is now being played by Emmett Corrigan. “The Visitor” la new in theme and In 20 minutes tells one of the moat human and appealing stories ever conceived. Mr. White’s Interpretation of "The Visitor” la con sidered by many to be his greatest 'work. It will be seen In the Temple theater next week.

When the Tigers won the pennant, Schneider and other rooters decided that a band must be had to welcome them home. He hired Stevens' band, obligating himself in the amount of s2(l. A big crowd gathered at the sta tion and all was joy. But Mayor Thompson had made an arrangement synje time after midnight to get the band of the Ancient and Honorable Artillery for nothing. The city's chief executive had his own parade and band. Schneider’s plea for recompense will be heard by the ways and means committee. Park Commissioner Hinchman in formed the council that he had cut the phaeton fare across Belle Isle bridge to three cents. The building commission asked for a stenographer to transcribe the building code. Aid. Wieber made a vain effort to se cure the opening of Charlevolx-st. Aid. Ellis was unable to secure re consideration of the vote by which John T. Healy's Fair view sewer bill was accepted. The board of health asked for ss,ooo to fight tuberculosis, having exhausted the fund of $1,200 previously set aside. Mayor Thompson vetoed the appro priation of S4OO to put cinders on the Alter road. Aid. Gadde offered a resolution that the council provide means of relief for John Bcherbeskl, who was crippled for life at the asphalt plant. The assessors were given SI,BOO to pay their clerks for night work. The claims and accounts culflmittee reported' that Russell A Jenulson, whose creosote blocks were rejected, have no ground for action against the city.

Under English law the succession to peerages is general ly to descendants of the "body male," but in some cases the feioale line is also included In the right to the title, falling a male hair. One curious feature of the succes sion f women to peerage* Is that If there are more than one female heir the title is held In abeyance until there is only one female heir left alive or unless (he specially Indicates which of the heirs is to Inherit the peerage. Our idea of a sane man Is one who can be In love without acting foolish. It keepa some men busy postponing things.

A peculiar condition has developed in the Thirteenth ward, where the four candidates for aldermen are hav ing a go-as-you-please battle. Lempke and Go eschel. the Republican nomi nees, are not Joining forces to t heex teut that usually obtains in that ward. Joseph Dederich haa xeconaldered hia Intention to withdraw and is making a hard struggle to be elected. James Daar, the other Democrat, also has hopes of sliding through the split field and winning a place.
Only legislative candidates through out the state will receive the atten tion of the liquor Interests, as em bodied In the Keep Your Mouth Shut organization. Arrangements had been made for this body to Indorse Gov. Warner and circulars advocating hia election were prepared, it Is stated, bur these were called in after it was fouud that the liquor men and allied trades did not waut to create any un necessary friction. The big struggle, therefore, will be to elect a legislature which will resist the prohibition move ment.
Arrangements for the count of votes of the general election, Nov. 3, were made In a meeting of the central counting board, Tuesday afternoon. Six hundred clerks will be hired, as in the primary ers of railway supplies. Including t)M McCord Journal box, bumping poets, J etc., and automobile accessories, prla- cipally radiators and lubricators, hftVP'l definitely decided to remove thMr j whole plant to Detroit. A deal for the purchase of a sits was closed Tuesday, juat in time for annomMS»jd menr at the quarterly meeting of thft s board of commerce, Tuesday night. J The committee on manufactures of ths board, of which F.H. Holt Is chairman, j has been working to get the new bust- ness for some months. McCord A Cos. Hre buying part of the present plant of the Hugh Wallace j Cos., on the North Grand Boulevard J cast, between Rlopelle and Orleana-ata. The factory building is 50x265 feet. J three stories iu height. McCord A Cos. employ now about 500 men, had a payroll last year of $225,000, and do a business of over $2,000,000 a year. It is expected that within a year the working force will be pushed up to 1,000 men and the gross yearly bual- ness doubled. One of the factors In In- and duclng the company to'locate here was j the fact that Detroit Is an automobile manufacturing center. McCord A Cos. established a tempor ary branch plant for the manufacture of automobile radiators here a feu months ago. securing a part of the plant of the Penberthy Injector Cos. on a ahort-tlme lease. Since the tem porary arrangement the advantages of Detroit as a manufacturing renter v have, through the hoard of commerce. been impressed upon the executive heads of the company so strongly that the permanent removal of the whole plant to Detroit follows. The sale of a part of its factory site also means improvements and ex tensions for the Hugh Wallace Cos. This concern has just let contracts for the adding of oue story to the present building on (he north side, 100x250 feet, and the erection of an entirely., new building In addition to the pres ent structure.

Shall the People Rule? You Do, Be Sure aod Vote Against Sun Time Mh f CheoM Central Standard or Eaet •rn Standard, If You Wilt, But jjj Waaao Spar* Ua the Other, Which Meana Two Kinds of Tima. KjttlOSt satisfactory in a test of many months in Detroit. There are arguments in favor of Eastern standard time which Benight make this kind of time even more popular after a trial, but it 1 Will prove most regrettable if the submission of the matter to the Ihptople in this three-sided form shall result in Sun time accidentally being indorsed by the voters. ■ft And this is very possible. There are those among Detroiters who have never become ireconciled to Central standard time and never have even changed i their watches or clocks. These will vote as a unit for Sun time, while the strength of L those who are opposed to Sun time, which amounts to a decisive jkinajority, will be split as they happen to be divided in tbeir choices of the two proposed Standard times. Should there happen to be an equal division of sentiment, or |T®aarly equal, Sun time would be likely to wut. Detroiters will recall that Sun time and Central standard were p both in use before the adoption of the latter as the official time for the city. With all railroads and boat lines entering and leaving Detroit on Central standard time and Sun time in use by the city, no end of annoyance resulted to both residents and non-residents. Detroit in the course of a year entertains hundreds of thousands of visitors, sight-seers and convention delegates, and the double Standard of time in vogue in those days was responsible for no end of adverse criticism and ridicule. Some stranger whose train was due to leave the city at xx .o'clock Central standard time would be passing the city hall clock ladmiring Detroit’s beauties and well-kept streets, and vowing to himself he would like to come here and live, when he would catch Sight of the hands pointing the time as 10:45. Rushing back to his hotel he would turn that institution upside down by dispatching one bell boy for his grip up in his room; an other for his overcoat which he had checked; and another to the 'phone to call a cab, the while calling upon the clerk for a lightning calculation stunt and the amount of his bill. Jumping into the cab he would order the driver to kill the horse jif necessary and arriving at his depot would bolt through the cab door, tell the “cabby" to keep the change and bring up breathless before the waiting room clock which told him that he had 38 minutes more than he thought he had. And then he sat down and cussed and forgot all about what a nice place Detroit was and about how he would like to live here. Strangers, however, were not the only ones put to this annoy Mice. v No resident of the city was ever any more sure of himself, either. It was first necessary for him to ascertain whether Central standard was slower or faster than Sun time. It was necessary next to ascertain whether it was 33, 38 or 30 minutes slower. And next, to get out a pencil and add 28 to 1 .26 to find out just -What time hi's train left Sun time, with the result, generally, that he would finally miss his train anyway. 1 We sincerely hope Sun time will never come to Detroit again. 1 Eastern standard time, the time that is proposed by the “More- Daylight" club, is one hour faster than Detroit’s present time. In case it is adopted the railroads would make this the official time for the arrival and departure of their trains. The object of its adoption would be to give Detroiters a longer period of recreation between the hour when their work would end -•ad darkness. Work begins in Detroit now it 6:30 Central standard. Under Eastern standard it would begin at 7 o'clock or one-half hour earlier than now, but this half-hour would be gotten back at the other end of the day, when work would be over at 6 o’clock or 5 o’clock under the present time. The half-hour of the evening would permit the workingmen to enjoy the advantages which nature has placed here to make this THE city where life is worth living and to enjoy them by daylight, whereas now, even in midsummer, darkness falls almost before the evening meal is over. There will be those who will go into this subject from the stand 'jpoint of the cost of light and other additional expense to a longer day, but this is poor reasoning, for the matlei of expense is bound to adjust Itself The f-Tejent time may suit many, but give us Central standard, Eastern standard, or any old time, 30 long as we are not compelled again to exist under two kinds, which would be the case should Sun time cqueexe in by the November vote. This question of time matters little, anyway, when all is %«iri and done. We are running on a schedule provided for the Great Time keeper end it is not of much consequence how wc measure down Jil*t it is our privilege, we believe, to say whether we care to jpead the most of the season allotted to us in figuring out what time It is, or whether we care to leave our survivors burdened by two times and in a quandary as to whether we got away 28 minutes ahead of time or a8 minutes too late. So that there will be left no doubt in the minds of those who outlive us as to whether we were dead 28 minutes before we were due to die, or whether we should have died 28 minutes before we Vote ior either Central or Eastern standard time, but at all \imee against Sun time.

They uncut »h*- afternoon amid me gloom of the hills, gradually threshing out together Strong's next step, anti to his joy Diana found his plans good. At 11 o'clock a» night they picked up Miss Hunt by wireless, and soon it became apparent there was something very much amiss. In brief Miss Hunt told hint she had received an urgent message from tlie THE WHOLE PEE-WEE FAMILY i editor oi the "Daily Wireless” saying he must decline to be any further I party to Strong’s proceedings unless I ho had definite assurance that his ac Dons would uot Imperil England's j peace. 1 Strong ticked a message for Miss Hunt to stand by the instrument while he rapidly thought out a means of dealing with the situatiou that was thus sprung upon him. It rook him but a few minutes to see that it would be far the quickest way to proceed to London himself aud settle matters with Mr. Sharp once and for all. The course of diplomacy which Diana had suggested to him would probably pacify the now alarm ed editor. Strong ticked tills message to Miss Hunt: 'Do you suppose that Mr.' Sharp would print from me an ultimatum to the world?” "I cahnot tell you,” was the answer, but 1 should think, knowing him as I do, it would he extremely unlikely. There are points beyoud which he will not go. and then mountains will not move him. 1 can send any message you cure to dictate, but i think it would i»e unwise, it would surely be lapped en route, aud In that case we should lose the 'scoop.'

H occurred to him, too,, that ;hi-> was the better way. Diana was seated beside hint In the light of the'great bonfire which the man had again built. Strong told her as quickly as he could the gist of Miss Hunt’s message. "The only thing that troubles ine,” h» said iu conclusion, "is that it Is waste of time. I cannot, even starting now, reach London tonight, and al though l have no fear of cither the •Victor* or the Td’ being seen, I can nm risk being seen myself, if I start tomorrow nt noon,” lie went ou.

Debs looked lulu friendly faces wherever he went; they were all ‘•Comrades.” Every mention of hta name in the preliminary speeches was the signal for a genuine outburst of applause.

A full hour before the meeting was scheduled to begiu, crowds began to straggle Into liumiltou ilubA, (he police succeeded at last In clearing u narrow aisle, and away went the candidate with the yelling, struggling mob following In his wake. The ride through Pitt-st. was one that Debs is not likely noon to forget. From every side street poured a multi tude of east side folk, who (tiled every crossing and brought progress to u dead stop time and again. People seemed to come from everywhere. They climbed on the steps of Debs’ machine aud shook him by the hand, and patted him on the back.
