Interstate commerce commission,! announced today. Examinations of fragments of the broken rail by the government bu rea-u of standards disclosed a fissure about twenty feot long in the interior of the rail. It was thus weakened seriously.

W. H. Belnap, chief of the division of safety, says in this report: "Rigorous and vigorous track inspection is the only safeguard which can at present toe relief upon for the detection

rail defects of this type. The

large numlber of rail failures due to split heads point to the necessity of exercising greater care In track inspection to discover split heads as .early as posstble in their course of development and when discovered remove such rails from the track."

STRIKERS MUST PAY OR MOVE.

Ohio Miners Given Until January 15 to Settle Rent. STEIIBENVIliLE, O., Dec. 30.—Nbtlces were made out here today calling .ffefei

approximately 2,600 families of the striking miners in Jefferson county to pay to the coal companies by Jan. 15, .}X\ the ten months' house rent they owe, under penalty of eviction.. These fam-

Jj'

Hies constitute the bulk of the popula-

CHAFL1N STORES GIVEN POWER TO REORGANIZE

Receiver Miller Says Root Store Among Those Making Good Showing for Year.

Local interest attaches to the report from New York to the effect that Judge Hand, in the United States district court, has signed a decree providing for the sale, on January 14, of the assets of the H. B. Claflln company, owing to the fact that the company owns the greater portion of the stock of the Root Dry Gods company, of which Attorney A. L. Miller Is receiver. The assets of the company include all property, right and interest held by John Claflin in the insolvent company, which failed last spring. New York mercantile circles believe the property will be bought in by the Mercantile Stores corporation, successor to the Claflin company in the twenty-three different stores throughout the country, including the Root Dry Goods company.

The decree signed by Judge Hand is so drawn as to embrace the plan of reorganization presented in the interest of the Mercantile Stores corporation, which provides that creditors of the Claflln company are to receive fifteen per cent in cash and eighty-five per cent in notes and stock of the reorganized company.

THE WHOLE BODY NEEDS PURE BLOOD

The bones, t^e' muscles, and all the organs of the body depend for their stiength and tone and healthy action on pure blood.

If the blood is very impure, the bones become diseased the muscles become enfeebled, the step loses its elasticity, and there is inability to perform the usual amount of labor. The skin loses its clearness, and pimples, blotches and other eruptions appear.

Riley and Fayette Township Ejec-

vtions

to be Investigated.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind., Dec. 30.— District Attorney Frank C. Dailey has let it .be known that hd is^ not done with Vigo county's election proibe. While npthing has come out of the federal attorney's office relative to what line the investigation will take the district attorney is quoted as saying that when the federal grand jury, reconvenes it will immediately go into the activities of the progressive and republican politicians in the November election. So far but one progressive has been connected with the alleged election irrgularities. This was in the indictment of A. f. Giuia, Terre Haute liveryman, who served on one of the election boards.

It is believed here that among the matters to be investigated will be the elections in Riley and Fayette townships. The district attorney has said that the irregularities were not all in one party, but were in some cases tripartisan, involving election officials and candidates in all three parties.

The majority of the federal grand jurors have dispersed to their homes and it will likely be some time after Jan. 4 before there will be any new developments in the., matter.
