TEAMS® GRANTED INCREASE IN WAGES

Renew Contracts With Several Employers, and Continue Negotiations With Other Firms.

A special meeting of members of Teamsters' union, Local No. 144, was held last night to hear the reports of S. C. Syester, business agent, from the firms asked to sign the new wage scale contract to go into effect tomorrow.

It was reported that most of the firms employing the union drivers, including Bement-Rea & Co, Hulman & Co., Bauermister Co., The Furnas IceCream Co., and the Model Ice Cream Co. have signed the contracts. In the case of wholesale grocerers, the drivers recieve an increase of $1.00 per week and a specified amount for overtime.

The Torre Hlaut© Pure Milk & Ice Cream company and the several transfer companies, Syester reported, have objected to several of the clauses and have delayed signing pending further negotiations. The contract for the ice cream company calls for a week's vacation. with pay, $15.75, equivalent to an increase of 25 cents per week during the year. The contract for the transfer drivers calls for an increase in wages of $1.50 per week and several other minor details.

A committee composed of Business Agent Syester and Secretary N. R. Wolfe was instructed to wait on members of the milk company in an effort to reach an agreement. It was reported" that, the milk company would grant an increase in wages with the vacation on pay clause eliminated. The union decided to put the mater before the International Teamsters' union for a recommendation.

The transfer companies opposed several clauses and requested that a board be appointed to meet with them. The committee named is composed of 8. C. Syester, Homer Arnold, Earl Merrlfleld, Frank Dukes, Edward Hoves, Rube Summers and W. F. Boswell. They will meet with the representatives of the transfer companies Monday night in the C. U. hall.

GLENN HOME ORPHAN

Agents of Board Give Chase In Auto and Reclaim Child—Taken Away By Ruse.

With the return of Marjory "Lintz, a thirteen-year-old girl, from the home of her mother, near Marshall, 111.. Saturday by officers of the board of children's guardians, a story of a daring attempt at kidnaping and an equally daring rescue became known.

About three years ago, the mother of the Lint'z girl, then a resident of Terre. Haute, placed the child the Glenn orphans' home, at the time relinquishing all claims on her, it is aaid. After a few months the girl was given to Mrs. Pierce, an aged widow of Blackhawk, Ind., about 20 miles south of Terre Haute, where she has made her home since that time.

The mother, in the meantime, remarried to a man named Kline and moved to a home about three miles west of Marshall, 111. The latter part of last week, Mrs. Pierce received a letter purporting to be from the Glenn orphan home, and signed by the matron, Mrs. Lawrence, asking that the child be brought to the home for a visit

Accordingly last Saturday, Mrs. Pierce brought the girl to Terre Haute. At the depot, it is said, after Mrs. Pierce had left the child to arrange for transportation to the home, she was put on a train for Marshall. When Mrs. Pierce returned the child had disappeared.

Mrs. Pierce, after a vain attempt to find the girl, reported to Superintendent Lawrence and Matron Lawrence at the home, of the girl's disappearance, i Letter Called Forgery.

An. examination of the letter revealed that none of the officials at tho home had ever seen it before and Mrs. Lawrence branded the signature as a forgery. Officials of the board of children's guardians immediately began an investigation. The girl was finally located at her mother and step-father's home. It was found that on the girl's arrival at Marshall, her mother in answer to a telephone call, came to the station and took her to her home.

Friday morning, William H. Myers, placing agent, and John McMinn, investigating agent for the board, took an automobile and went to the home of the girl's parents. On their arrival, they at first found no trace of the girl. After a search of the premises, Myers found the girl secreted in an out-house in the rear yard of the home.

Upon the discovery of the girl, it is said, the mother became violent and attempted to wrest the girl from the officers. While the mother was detained by McMinn, Myers placed the girl in the machine, the engine of which was kept' running, to enable a quick start.

The officers succeeded in crossing the state line without intervention and the girl was returned to the home of her foster parent in Blackhawk. According to the board' officers, the girl said her stepfather forged the letter which brought her to Terre Haute.

ROOSEVELT ATTACKS WILSON

Speech Before Illinois Bar Association Devoted to Criticism of President's Foreign Policies.

CHICAGO, April 29.—Co]. Theodore Roosevelt was the guest of honor and chief speaker this evening at a banquet here of the Illinois Bar association that was the most largely attended banquet given by lawyers since the dinner of the New York Bar association three years ago.

Every one. of the original twelve hundred tickets issued was taken and an "overflow" banquet was held in a hall adjoining the main banquet room.

Col. Roosevelt discussed the present world war crisis, and though the dinner was non-political, he gkve his views as to what hei considered the duty of every citizen and as to what he thought was the course America should pursue. His subject was: "International Duty and American Ideals." Some of his utterances follow: "Americans won't follow those who would make right helpless before might," who would put a pig tail on Uncle Sam, and turn the Goddess of Liberty into a pacificist female huckster, clutching a bag of dollars which she has not the courage to guard against aggressiveness. America will fail if turned into a ployglot boarding house where dollar hunters of twenty different nationalities scramble for gain." "The politico-racial hyphen is a breeder of moral treason." "There is just one way to be a good citizen of frie United States—and that is to be an American and nothing else." "Our words, (referring to the German notes) have been like, a check Issued by a man on a bank—he has no funds, but expects some how or other he will get them by the time the check comes round." "The minute the effort is made to turn a battleship into an ambulatory school house, we spoil the battleship without getting the school house." "The Monroe doctrine will never be one particle stronger than the navy." "Peace with Mexico continues to rage with unabated ferocity and with all, the accompaniments of murder and violence." "The statement that preparedness incites war ranks oh a par with the hoary falsehood that it takes two to make a quarrel." "Preparedness is like fire insurance."

CITY WANS TO USEJtHDE

frontage of about 685 feet. It was impossible to acquire the additional land needed so the Rose Institute is to be erected elsewhere.

This land has therefore been platted into 180 fine lots and will be offered for sale on May 5, 6 and 7. The Rose institute has reserved driveways on the top of the bluffs east of the canal bed and will give this, together with the towpath, the canal bed and all land lying west to the river, in all a total of about four and one-half acres, to the city. The gift will be conditioned on the opening, by the city, of a river side drive extending from Fort Harrison south, just east of the canal bed, for a distance as far as practical.

This new project is a part of a .plan filed in February, 1907, by O. C. Syrr.onds, a landscapo gardener from Chicago, who came here following an Invitation by the city council to go over the grounds and design a river side boulevard. His plp.n was to start the driveway at the foot of Poplar street and extend it over the route supposed to be donated by the Rose Polytechnic institute.

Where Route Goes.

A feature of this new driveway will be that it will furnish an extension to a proposed "si&ht-soeing" route to be established in Terre Haute. This route will start north from Wabash avenue, along the water works' park, thence by the Woodlawn cemetery, through Memorial park, then north and through the beautiful Collett park. From here the driver can enter upon the river side drive, oh a road leading off of Seventh street a little north of Collett park. Along this road the autoist can get a good view of the river and finally come to Riverside park. After leaving this place the party can go north to Fort Harrison road, east to Forest park and Anally south to Highland Lawn cemetery.

By Special Correspondent. SULLIVAN, Ind., April 29.—While drilling an oil well on the farm of I. W. Burkholder, west of Shelburn, the drill struck a vein of coal at a depth of 318 feet. It was at flrpt thought the well would have to be abandoned, but after six hours of tedious labor the drill paBsed through11 the coal, which was several feet deep and was covered by a six-foot thickness of hard limestone, which would prove Ideal for a roof, in case a mine should be sunk there. With the discovery of the coal, there is considerable talk of sinking a number of coal mines in that locality.
