She ^tothvillc (Enquirer J Entered at tbe PostofHce at York as Mall Matter of the Seeond Claa* 1 FRIDAY, AUGUST 8, 1819. * In view of the domestic trobles that S are now brewiag it would seem that the senate should be especially anx- F ious to settle its foreign troubles without any more delay. I ' .? . I Senator Ed Smith came very near hitting the nail on the head the other 1 day when he intimated that part of the trouble with the country is the cost of * high living, aa much as the high cost ef living. To be sure there has been 1 a lot of governmental extravagance and incompetence during the war, and J profiteers have made thousands where they were entitled to make only hun- < dreds; but along with it all there is too much general extravagance. Wide- ^ spread practice of economy by individuals would help the situation 1 wonderfully for individuals. 1 The one thing that contributes most to the greatness of Bngland is the sense of fairness and Justice that is so well developed in the hearts and ) minds of all Englishmen, especially a sense of fairness and justice as be- r tween Englishmen. Take a group of ' three Englishmen anywhere, let a difference develop between two of r them and the settlement will be referred to the third. Let there be more t than three and the dispute will ! always be referred to the judg- j ment of the least interested among the ' others. And the Judgment of an Eng- 1 lishman, the average Englishman al- j ways seems to be-sportsmanlike and , fair. There is seldom such a thing as I hung Jury in England, because gen- f erally minorities are willing to yield ,, to majorities. , , , i ( It is not an unusual notion among 3 Jurymen, which notion has been incul- ? cated through false teaching that a \ Juryman is perfectly justified in rend- j ? ? - 4k* . ering a verdict according iu uw i manner in which he would like to see : the verdict go. That is, that the Jnry- j man has a right to vote for which- ; ever side he would rather see win. The I oath of the Juryman requires him to ' render his verdict in accordance with the law and the evidence- There is responsibility on him ia interpreting i the evidence, of course; but hie duty i requires that his interpretation be < honest and sincere. The Juryman who ' would deliberately agree to a verdict _ that he knows to be wrong simply by so doing he may help a man he likes better than some other man. is no more fit for a Juryman than a hound j pup. , ] MERE MEIfTION.

Mr. Barron came t< Yorkville several days ago, STRIKE IN ROCK HILL The employes of the Aragon Cottor Mill in Rock Hill walked out last Tuesday night at 11 o'clock and the mil has since been closed. The difference between employes an<! employers is because of wages, thf employes having demanded an increas of 25 per cent, and the employee having declined to meet the demand. Mr. Alexander Long, general manager of the Aragon stated his posltlor in regard to the demand of the employes. in effect like this: "The mill is unable to grant a 2J per cent. Increase of wages. It can I not stand such an increase. The right of the employes to make such a demand is fully recognized. There is nothing for the mill to do under the circumstances but to shut down and await developments. There will be no effort to break the strike. There is no feeling of hostility or animosity. If later on the employes should see proper to change their minds, the old relations will be resumed as if nothing had occtlrred." The operatives of the Manchester Mill of which J. R. Barron is president and general manager also made a demand Tuesday for a 25 per cent, increase of wages. The demand was refused on the same general ground as that taken by the Aragon mill?that the business would not stand the in, crease demanded. No further action has yet been taken by the employes, - and there has been no published an! nouncement as to their purpose. It is , presumed however that they will , strike. The textile union that was organized i in Rock Hill more than a month ago has since been growing stronger and ' riomnnrl fnr hotter Stronger, u-iiu niia _ ' wages which has been generally antii cipated, especially in view of existing conditions, involves the first trial of strength that has yet developed. It was unauthoriatively reported on ' the streets of Rock Hill yesterday afternoon that notwithstanding the I declaration of President Long that there would be no effort to import I strikebreakers, the premises of the Aragon mill are being picketed by | i: med guards. ?,'#/ CLOVER WANTS GOOD STREETS , Recommendation for an appropriation of Federal aid in the sum of $22,! 000, $10,000 of the amount to be used within the corporate limits of the ' town of Clover was decided upon by the county board of commissions at their meeting Wednesday. A committee of Clover citizens consisting of Senator J. E. Beamguard, Dr. I. J. Campbell and Mr. W. T. Beamguard appeared before the commissioners and asked them to recommend Federal , aid in the sum of $10,000 for road i construction in the town of Clover, in ! addition to $12,000 to be used on construction work of the north road in King's Mountain township and lead' ing to the North Carolina line, f It is proposed to build a concrete road not less than twenty feet wide through the town of Clover. Freef -holders living along main street in the | town have signed a petition agreeing I to bear one-fourth of the expense of | this road construction provided the rej maining seventy-five per cent is borne . by the town and the Federal govern. ment. The distance traversed by this nronosed cement road is about a mile and a half extending from the southern to the> northern limits of Clover. Under the law the state highway commission which has charge of the apportionment of Federal aid in South Carolina may aid in road building in ) towns of less than 2,000 population ! where such town is on a highway rec; ommended for Federal aid. It is under ' this provision that Clover is expect' ing to receive aid in working the pub, lie road within her borders. A majority of the freeholders of \ Clover on Tuesday signed the follow. ing which was filed with the board of county commissioners on Wednesday. "We, the undersigned property owners on main street in the town of Clover, S. C., hereby agree to a propr erty abutment assessment of 25 per i cent or not exceeding one dollar and . fifty cents per running foot payable s in four annual installments for the , purpose of building a bithulltic or con crete road not less than twenty feet wide through the entire length of main street in the town of Clover under supervision of the state highway engineer on condition only that fifty per I cent, of the cost of the said road is to ; be furnished by the state highway' en' gineer and 25 per cent, by the com5 missioners of King's Mountain township and the town of Clover, S. C. In ' case 75 per cent, of the cost of said road is not furnished by the state 1 highway engineer and the commissioners of King's Mountain township k and the town of Clover, S. C., then this obligation is null and void and of L no effect whatever." The agreement was signed by the following main street property owners of Clover: J. Meek Smith, V. C. , Stroup, J. J. Wilson, Clover Cotton Oil and Ginning Co., by J. E. Beamguard, w t_ Beamguard, Mrs. M. E. r Campbell. T. F. Jackson, Jas. W. Campbell, E. C, Jackson, Mrs. Ida Robinson, Hawthorn Spinning Mills, M. L.

THE WESTERN ROAD. Citizens of Bullock's Creek and Broad River townships, more than one hundred strong, appeared before the York county board of commissioners Wednesday morning requesting that a general route of the West road of the county be designated so as to take in the towns of Sharon, Hickory Grove and Smyrna, claiming that such deslg~e n-sflQtaof nation wouia prove ui mc 6'c?iv?v ! benefit to the greatest number of t people in western York and guaran' teeing that rights of way weuld be granted the county commissioners if . they did designate such a route. I Dr. J. H. Saye, addressing the com1 missioners In the interest of a route leading through Sharon and Hickory Grove, said that in his opinion, such a load would be of benefit to a majority of the citizens of western York. The location of the west road to be built . under the county road law providing i for a north and south and an east and west road had never been decided up) on, the people of western York had been paying taxes for road purposes for years without ever receiving any 1 benefit therefrom, their tax money being spent on roads in other sections of the county. There had been many f rumors and much discussion of the . probable route of the west road and the western delegation had come be, fore the commission for the purpose j of asking that the route be designated fnr all nnrf that it oass through the towns of Sharon, Hickory } Grove and Smyrna. The question of where the west road would meet with Cherokee county was ' not a question of very great moment with most of the delegation present, he ' said. They cared not so long as the " road was built to take in the three 1 towns of westorn York. I'eople of western York county he said were growing tired of the delay in getting a good road. Year after year they had been looking forward to seeing such a road constructed through western York running through the incorporated towns. He and others who had been lighting for good roads for western Y'ork for years were now growing old without seeing any tangible results of their endeavors. \V. S. Wilkerson of Hickory Grove argued that the present road law had been operative for eleven years and that in all that time the western section of the county had received practically no benefit from it. The chain* gang had never been in western York county and from present indications it could not be for a long time to come. People in the western section Of York county, the great majority of them, felt that they were entitled to a road , connecting with the Cherokee line i leading through the towns of Sharon > and Hickory Grove. The matter of the junction point with Cherokee county, he said, was of not much importance and personally he was not so much interested in the junction point, i However he was strongly in favor of . an official western road through Sha. ron and Hickory Grove and thought it nothing but fair and just that such a route should be designated since it I would serve the greatest number of ; people in that section of the county. J. S. Brice, Esq., representing the i county board of commissioners said he did not think the commission should designate the route now because of the i fact that it would be necessary for an . engineer to first go over the ground. Furthermore the people of western i York county had come, he said, asking . for designation of a road through Sha ron. Hickory Grove and Smyrna, and 2 had railed to bring with them signed t riphts of way. He understood that a pe- 1 tiUon was in circulation asking the r county commissioners to designate the t Adair's Ferry road connecting with the c Cherokee county road at Smyrna, c as the official west road and he i did not think it right for the com- a 'nijsion to take official action until the t Adair's Ferry advocates had been f heard. : ! r T. J. Estes, a well known farmer a living on the Cherokee side of Broad t river who attended the meeting invited i York county to build a west road lead- t ing through Sharon and Hickory c Grove and connecting with Cherokee county at the Broad river bridge built by York and Cherokee county at Wilkinsville. Mr. Estes gave positive as- . surance that the Cherokee county com mlssioners had not yet definitely decided upon the point at which their < main road from Gaffney would strike the York county line. The Wilkinsville section of Cherokee county, he said is anxious that the junction of the York to Cherokee road shall be made at the Broad river bridge. A. L. Black of York township who is advocating the designation of the Adair's Ferry road as the official west road of York county said that the petitions were now in circulation regarding the proposition. One sought the signatures of freeholders along the proposed route giving rights of way and the other seeking signatures of York and King's Mountain township people asking that the road be officially designated on the ground that it was the shortest and most practicable route. The distance from Yorkville to the Cherokee county line by Adair's Ferry, he said, was only eleven miles whereas to the line through Sharon and Hickory Grove, is twice that distance or more. These' petitions, Mr. Black, said, would be filed with the county commissioners in a short while. Again taking the floor Dr. Saye declared that if a western road leading through Sharon, Hickory Grove and Smyrna were officially adopted the Broad River township people would go down in their pockets and contribute a sum sufficient to place the road leading from Hickory Grove to the Broad river bridge joining Cherokee in the best possible shape. He concluded his remarks with an argument that western York people who came to Yorkville, Wednesday well knew that the west road could not be laid out without the services of an engineer; but what western York wanted was a road leading through Sharon and Hickory Grove. They cared nothing for the details of the route. The western York county people, he said, wanted to go back home assured that the west road would lead through their towns. Taking the position that the day was not the proper time to decide upon the matter, the county commissioners an^> nounced that a meeting would be held at Smyrna or Piedmont Springs with the Cherokee county authorities within the next few days. At that meeting j a function point between the two counties will be decided upon. Then the official designation of the west , road will be made. , LOCAL LACONICS Purchased Gaffney Real Estate. i W. C. Thomson of Bullock's Creek ' township has purchased the T. H. J Westrope home on South Petty street ' in Gaffney. The consideration involved is reported to be $10,000. It is Mr. ? Thomson's intention to remove his 1 family to Gaffney. Railroad Shopmen on Strike. J The shopmen of the Southern rail- 1 way in Rock Hill and of the C. & N.- I W. in Chester, are on strike. While ' the situation is serious in both cases, < it is net thought that the effects will < be felt immediately. 1 York County Farm Sold. ( Messrs. J. D. B. and John L. Cur- , rence have purchased the Len Wood < farm in the Point section of York county from Mr. S. S. Shuford of Gas- j tonia, the tract consisting of about 562 acres. The Messrs. Currence have , also recently purchased the J. Hope j Adams farm at Ebenezer consisting of ] 1-60 acres or more. Ba rn Burned. A large barn on the Clover road in , Gaston county, belonging'to the estate , of the late J. F. McArver, was destroyed by fire Monday night with a loss of , several thousand dollars. Insurance in llie sum of $1,900 was carried on the property. The conflagration lighted up the country for miles around and was nininlv seen in Yorkville. Ne animals were destroyed. Auto Turned Over. An automobile driven by Mr. John i f. Thomas of Yorkville No. 1, waa 1 overturned Tuesday evening near the ! home of Mr. J. D. Clark. Mr. Thomas j attempted to turn to the right to make i room for a passing vehicle when he lost control of his machine, causing it : to climb a bank and overturn. He was badly bruised and the car wasdamag- I ed somewhat; but several children who i were riding with him were uninjured. < Warehouse For Rock Hill. Rock Hill is to have a large cotton ( warehouse to be erected by the Nation- j al Association of Cotton Manufactur- j ers of New York city. The warehouse j which will have an initial capacity of , 10,000 bales with an ultimate capacity ( of twice this number win De one 01 it chain of standardized cotton warehouses at strategic points throughout the south. Other South Carolina cities where these warehouses are to be erected are Spartanburg, Greenville, Columbia and Charleston. Fined For Assault and Battery. E. J. Arrant, white, was convicted before Magistrate Glenn of Ebenezer a few days ago for assaulting Bob Jackson, colored, and 1 wife, two share croppers on his place, and was fined $10 in each case. The evidence which Arrant made no effort to deny, was that Arrant tied JackBon and his wife to a tree and thrashed them with hickory withes. There was considerable interest in the trial . among both white and colored. Geo. G. Eaves represented the prosecution and W. H. Dunlap represented the defense. Held For Serioue Offense. Frank Adams, a negro of the Hickory Grove section was arrested this week by T. P. Ross of Rock Hill, special agent of the Carolina & Northwestern and Southern Railroads on a charge of throwing rocks through a car window of a Southern passenger train on June 21 last. Following a preliminary heading before Magistrate R. L. A. Smith of Hickory Grove, he was bound over to the court of general sessions on bond in the sum of $300. The negro furnished his own bond. The railway special agent has been working on the matter for some time and Adams was arrested after a care rui investigation. Employes Want More Money. Hock Hill, August 4: Employes of the Hamilton Carhartt Mill of this city have requested an increase of 25 per cent, in wages, according to announcement made today by B. L. Ivey, secretary of the mill. Mr. Ivey states that it has always been the policy of Hamilton Carhartt, president of the Carhartt Mills, to share with the employees a large portion of the mill's earnings. The employees have in the past, it is stated, been paid wages as high as the earnings of the mill Justified. Mr. Carhartt will not depart from this policy in the present instance. Mr. Ivey states. He added, however, that the present earnings of the Carhartt Mill do not justify an increase of 25 per cent, in wages. This would involve an increase of many thousands of dollars in the payroll, an ? fUof If la nltfifnthnr increase ?u h1 mm * ... ? out of the question, Mr. Ivey states. J The mill owners are willing:, it is stated, to give the employees an increase of 5 per cent, in wages, but feel that no greater raise than this can ho granted. Shooting at King's Mountain. King's Mountain, August 5: A most mysterious shooting affair occurred in east King's Mountain Monday morning, when 13-year-old Arthur Taunt, in company with 17-year-old Ed Gilbert, were walking down the road about 300 yards from Arthur Gantt's store, when a .22 calibre bullet struck Taunt in the back and went almost through him.

Smith and ather relatives and friends here. Mr. Wade H. Pursley, the popular ( md efficient carrier on Clover No. 4, is now enjoying his deserved vacation. , His substitute. Mr. James Faulkner is serving the patrons on the route. Mr. William B. Riddle, a well known citizen of Bowling Green and formerly representative from York county is able to be up and about after a long siege of illness. Mr. Riddle had the i misfortune to break his leg last January and had not recovered from that before he was down with pneumonia. < That disease kept him in bed a long while. He is still very weak; but is I sheerful in the belief that he is now well on the road to recovery. Several Clover people attended the educational rally at St. Paul Methodist church last Tuesday. Among those : who went from here were Rev. and I Mrs. H. A. Whitten and Mr. James A. Barrett Moffatt, little son of Dr. R. L. Wylie who has been undergoing treatment in i Charlotte hospital for some time past has been returned to his home here. His condition is very much improved, i Mrs. D. M. Parrott has returned to her home here after spending some ; Lime with relatives in Yorkville and vicinity. Messrs. T. M. Campbell and R. O. Clinton were visitors in Moore county, N. C., this week. , m , ] SHARON SHAVINGS. I Correspondence of The Yorkville Enquirer. Sharon, August 7?Sharon people 1 md those living in Bullock's Creek and ? * * ' ? 1-1 ? ? unATl ' Broad mver luwuampa wnu iuun u>>vu Sharon as their chief marketing point, ; ire interesting themselves much In the 1 matter of a good road for western , ifork, evidenced by the large representation of local people that went to yorkville, Wednesday to appear before the county commissioners regarding ( the designation of the west road of the county. , Discussing the road question Wed- ( lesday evening with The Enquirers' correspondent, Dr. J. H. Saye said that < lie proposed to agitate the matter in Bullock's Creek and Broad River ; townships of asking the legislative , lelegation at the next session of the general assembly to appropriate $50,- . 300 or $60,000 for the purpose of build- j ing a road through western York county. The doctor said that he be- ( lieved the delegation would act' favoribly upon the request and that two members of the delegation had already ( expressed themselves as being favor- , ible to it. I "I don't think it would be anything j but right," said Dr. Saye. "Here , western York has been paying taxes for years for which every other sec- , tion of York county has received bene- , fit, while we have received practically j lothing. We might possibly get the , chaingang over this way next year md we might possibly get it in the j next twenty years. There is no tell- , ing and we are not banking on it. There is no more reason why the eastern, northern and southern sections of the county should not help us to build i i good road through western York i than that we should help them build i jood roads through their respective ' territories as we have done," i T-nrrc ennereeations are attending i the series of protracted services that i ire being held at Sharon A. R. P. i church. Rev. J. M. Garrison of Anderson is assisting the pastor, Rev- E. B. Hunter. Two services are being held each day. The meeting will come to i close on Sunday. The tumble in the price of cotton .he past few days has taken all offerings off the market here. Not in several days has the sale of a single bale seen reported and tha outlook is that there will be no sales until the price foes back up to thirty-five cents or such a matter. Mr. J. G. Caldwell who has been unlergoing treatment for appendicitis at the Fennell Infirmary, has returned to his home here. He was accompanied home by his father, Mr. R. H. 3. CaldwellA. Lee Plexico has secured his discharge from the United States nary ind is now at the home of his father, Mr. A. F. Plexico in Sharon. J. C. Bankhead has secured his dis- 1 charge from the military service after < nore than a year's service and has re- : iumed his position with the Hill Bank- 1 ng and Mercantile Company. Mr. and Mrs. A. M. Erwin and child- ( ren have returned to Sharon after a ( . isit to Mr- Erwin's parents at Antre- 1 rtlle, S. C. Mr. W. R. Mccunougn is visiuns reativcs and friends in Georgia. Miss Sarah Love, assistant in the } First National Bank of Sharon is visit- 1 ng her father, Mr. Emmett Love at j auntersville, N'. C. Mrs. D. A. Whisonant and daughters f ire visiting relatives in Bishopville. A'ould be tested by the measure of genjrosity with which they came to its fl- j lancial needs. No action was taken * resterday as to fixing a minimum " irice, although somewhat strenuous c effort was made by E. W. Dabbs to lave the organization go on record as 'stimating 50 cents a pound as a rea- t lonable price. A meeting of all the e itate associations in the cotton belt is e o be held about September 1, at which a ime one of the chief objects will be c o agree upon a minimum figure. What c vas possibly the most far reaching ef- li ort of the day was the resolution call- i ng on each county to buy all cotton g hat would be rushed to the market 1 tarly in the fall before a minimum t >rlce has been set. Lang: D. Jennings | tl >f Sumter led the tight for the adop- n ion of this resolution arguing that F here was always a large block of cot- p on which was sold at the opening of c he season, which cotton was sufficient fi o meet the immediate needs of the si nanufacturers, and would thus present control of the market by the growers. Mr. Jennings made an elo- ^ luent plea for the resolution, saying hat no one would stand to lose a dolar and that each county was flnan- ^ dally able to take care of the cotton _ lurried to the market. The resolution d vas adopted. Another resolution was *( idopted calling in the president of the State Bankers' asociation and the pre- a# V? /ihamKana r\f r*r\m m nroo of Columbia and Charleston to call a meeting of bankers and business men of the state with the purpose of forming a trade acceptance corporation In South Carolina. Such a corporation svas formed a few days ago in Georgia with a capital of $2,000,000. It is 1 estimated that a capital stock of from 7, &750.000 to $1,000,000 would be necessary for the South Carolina branch ? P. K. White, vice president of Armour & Co., appearing before a senate a committee, denied that his company c tvas profiteering or using unfair methods in the distribution and sale of meai. He declared the company had made no profit on its beef business this year and that it would welcome an . Investigation of its books and records. r Mr. White denied also that his company participated in exorbitant profits In eggs, declaring the egg storage business was carried on more as an accommodation than anything else and that the company's average profit was \ not more than 2 or 3 cents a dozen, rhe witness told the committee that Monday his firm sold meat at a loss of from 1 to 1 1-2 cents a pound in eastern cities due to a fall In the market. Mr. White said the high cost of 1 living was as serious to business Interests as to the people. In this connection, he said, the cost to his company of production and distribution had greatly increased, labor costs alone having advanced 134 per cent in four years. Members of the committee " asked why meat prices were higher in Washington than elsewhere. Mr. White explained that his company : shipped a better grade of meat to this city than to other eastern cities because of a demand here for higher gictuca. iui. vv inic wuaigcu tuc icueral trade commission with withholding from the public that its investigation had shown the packers 'profits to be only 5.6 per cent and added that \ there would not be the present agita- ^ tion against the packers had those figures been announced." He told the committee that the consumer was to blame in part for the present high cost I of living. Asking why it was that al- ? though wholsale meat prices were low- a er, retail prices were higher, the wit- a ness said the retailer advanced his prices with each advancing market and held the prices up just as long as his customers permitted him to do so. j The witness suggested the imposition c of an excess profit tax against pro- c fiteers as a means of stopping that j practice. Mr. White told the commit- a tee that fetters received by Armour & a Co. indicated that the producers were v opposed to federal regulation of the t packing industry. ti ? Even if Victor Berger never sets foot in Washington again he has already benefited from the United t States government to the extent of nearly $4,500. Added to this is the cost of the inquiry to determine whether Berger is too disloyal to occupy the seat to which he has been elected in the house. The inquiry has been suspended until Sept. 15, by which Henry F. Cochems, attorney for Mr. Berger, is expected to file his brief. The sub-committee which has been hearing testimony will then start making up its report This report may not be ready until October. No matter : whether it recommends that Berger be thrown out of the house, and that body li sustains the report by October Mr. i r? <ii i < ii/i.r ?.,??? uei ger win nave uecu paiu a nu/ guui o by Uncle Sam. Last Monday was pay- i day for house members and Mr. Ber- a ?er received his $626 monthly salary as I "member elect." He has received sal- ? ary ever since congress convened, \ March 4, and his salary, In all, has c amounted to $3,125. Of course he will s receive salary while the house is in re- ? cess, and on Sept. 1 another $625 will t be due him. In addition to this, he g had so far received $371.20 in mileage c and his clerks have been paid accord- Ing to schedule. Up to Monday the clerk hire of the "member elect" was $933.34. Mr. Berger has received $3,125 for sal- ary, $371.20 in mileage, and $933.34 for clerk hire, making $4,429.54 In all. By October, outside of any additional mileage, this will be Increased by $1,250, two months' salary, and $533.32 in two months' clerk salary, making a total of . $6,31.2.86. j ? Fifty alleged race rioters of Chica- " $o will be placed on trial in October for murder, assault with intent to kill, conspiracy to riot and carrying con- * cealed weapons, it was announced by t the state's attorney last Wednesday, i Speedier trial would be urged, it was _ pointed out, but for a supreme court decision which declares that a person , charged with crime must be given a J "reasonable time in which to prepare a defense." While the legal machinery is working toward the prosecution of those believed guilty of participation in the recent race riots, which resulted in thirty-flve deaths and the ? injury of hundreds, ten thousand soldiers, policemen and deputy .sheriffs f are patrolling the "black belt." The calm which followed the advent of the troops, it was thought would permit thu withdrawal of soldiers in ten days. 1 Race hatred is still smoldering and It J might be necessary for the soldiers to p remain for several weeks. In several t. Instances troops have been hooted and g complaints have been made by white . pi rsons that they have been reviled and on occasions spat upon by negroes. J 1 ? ? By the payment of $35,176,123, Uieat Britain has settled her obligalions to the American government for munitions negotiated for during the / war, the war department has an- I flounced. Of the total sum paid $13,- , 500,000 was for liberty motors; $13,274,30o for airplane spruce; $2,887,000 for wood distillates; $4,690,000 for powder and $651,000 as the British share in the cotton linters pool, The announce- 1 ment was in the form of a letter adIressed to Sec. Baker from Chester W. o Cornell, Mr. Baker's special repre- ti tentative in negotiations with the k British minister of munitions. Mr. si Cutnell said the transaction probably was without precedent "in that a gov- jrnment has recognized obligations, based almost entirely on verbal state- ? nents, to contribute to losses sustain- -l 3d by an ally in the production of war g materials beyond its own needs. It is Cl ikewise without precedent in our country as to the amount of money in- _ solved, and because of the fact that to recourse was had to any internat- j ional tribunal." ^ q ? Six dreadnaughts of Admiral Rod* rl nan's Pacific fleet had an unusual ex- p< xrience with an earthquake, off the coast of Colima, Mexico, last Sunday Rtcrnoon. The flagship reeled under _ i sudden shock as if it had struck a eef. "Collision Quarters" was sound- , ;d from the ship's siren, officers, sail- / >rs and marines moved to their resjective posts. The situation was a " mystery for some time until Admiral ni tollman suggested "earthquake" as the r| cause of the alarm. Wireless messages ? wore sent to the other five ships and ? ill replied that they had felt the S shock. The ships pitched and rolled because of heavy ground swells, and J ifter fifteen minutes the "Secure sig- .. ml" was sounded by the siren. For L he first five minutes or so practically sverybody on the ship was sure that here had been a collision and careful tearch was made of all the ships to liscover the trouble. - ? Moved to action by food riots A hroughout France, the French government has announced its purpose to at establish through France government- m il barracks for the sale of food and fc ther absolutely necessary articles at ar ost. Retailers are coming forward In Ti arge numbers and offering their A daces of business and services to the m government in the distribution of food, .'he action of the retailers is influenced Ai >y the anticipation that otherwise ieir places of business might be com landeered. It is the purpose of th rench government to sell to the peo le the stocks of food and other mer handise that was recently purchase om the United States as surplus arm; upplies. ? Thanking his friends for the con dence and esteem evidenced In thel roposal of himself as a cuitabl indidate for congress, Mr. A. B.
