ARMY APPROPRIATION IHCSEASED BY HOUSE

Unanimous Vote Adds Total of $180,000,000 for Items Made Necessary by Guard Movement.

WASHINGTON, June 27—The house late yesterday passed the army approprition bill by an unanimous vote after it had increased its total to $180,000,000 through the addition of $26,000,000 for many separate items. Some of the principal increases made were:

For field artillery for national guard, increased from $3,000,000 to $8,000,000, d'vided equally between manufacture and purchase.

Artillery ammunition for national guard, $3,000,000 to $8,000,000. For citizen militia training, $500,000 to $2,000,000.

Horses, $800,000 to $3,800,000. Medical and hospital supplies, $1,000,000 to $2,000,000.

Engineering equipment, $500,000 to $1,000,000. Small arms ammunition reserve, $2,'500,000 to $4,500,000.

In a circular entitled "Why We Do Not Sell Cream of Wheat," which the company is distributing to its customers, it says:

For years we have been buying cream of wheat from the Cream of Wheat company, selling it in our stores at a price that enabled us t- make a satisfactory profit.

The Cream of Wheat company took exception to the price for which we were selling it in our stores (12c), and would not do any further "business with us direct.

We have, therefore, decided to discontinue the sale of their merchandise and have placed on the market Grandmother's Wheat Farina, a product known as purified middlings.

The money we save by our up-to-date organization we give to the consumer, an this the Cream of Wheat company endeavored to prevent our doing in the sale of their product. We believe it is unreasonable that the Cream of Wheat company should require us to .sell their goods at a higher price than we consider necessary.

It is the duty of every housewife to give oui1 Grandmother's Wheat Farina a fair trial, if for no other reason than to discourage the idea of manufacturers that they can control the retail price of their product.

WHEN IN DOUBT. Try The Tribune.

Today And A Generation Hence

The flight of time makes us think of ihe.future. The baby of today reflects what greatness may be acquired w en ho grows up. And any influence that brings relief to the expectant mother is the first an\ greatest of obligations.

Small arms, $2,000,000 to $5,000,000. Ordinance, $3,000,000 to $6,000,000. Machine guns for the army, $1,400,000 to $3,600,000, and a separate appropriation of $2,000,000 for the national guard, a' new provision.

Armored motor car5, $150,000 to $300,000. The house decreased some items, particularly appropriations for the national guard, whose supplies after federalization will be obtained through army appropriations.

EIGHTS PRICE CONTROL.

A. & P. Comoany. Refuses to Charge Higher Than It Believes Necessary, The Great Atlantic & Pacific Tea company has discontinued the sale of cream of wheat, and has placed on the market a wheat farina of its own which it is urging its customers .to buy, because, it says, the Crqam of "Wheat company insisted on fixing the retail price, and refused to sell direct to the A. & P. company any longer unless that concern would agree to charge two cents a package higher than it had been charging for the product. It urges housewives to giVe its new'.product a fair trial, "If for no Other reason than to discourage the idea of manufacturers that they can control the retail price of their prod uct."

CHATHAM SENDS NEWS

Former Terre Hautean Writes Prom Nogales, Ariz., That War Is Expected by Citizens.

The following letter waa received Monday by Mrs. Matilda Dwyer,

109

North Thirteenth street, from her brother, J. J. Chatham, who is now living about one hundred yards from the Mexican border at Nogales, Arizona. Mr. Chatham, who is a native of Terre Haute and who is well known here, writes of the actual conditions in the vicinity of the border. He says: "War with Mexico I think is close. Have thought so for a long time. All the women and children have been moved out of Nogales, Mexico, into the interior towns and troops are massed south of town. We do not know how many, but reports have it all the way from 4,000 to 12,000. On the American side we had about 1,800 infantry, cavalry, artillery and machine gun men and another train load reached here this morning from Douglas, Aria., 100 miles east of here and I am told that troops will continue to arrive until we have several thousand.

Citizens Organized.

"The able bodied men of the town are all armed and organized to aid the militia in case of attack by day or night. A careful patrol is being maintained all the time. The American soldiers are all anxious to get into action. One hundred of them are considered as good as

500

Mexicans.

"Lillie and the girls spent one night this week at the home of Lillie's sister, who lives on the north side of town and" I think I will send them there every night hereafter as our home is only a block from the line and stands on a hill overlooking the Mexican town. As I have a good Springfield rifle and a half bushel of cartridges, that will bore a hole in a man as big As an orange, I shall stay at home and look after the house. "Herbert, our youngest boy, is at Bouglas, still in the United States customs service. Before being sent there' he wa$ .promoted and now is as sistant* collector at the port of Douglas. He telephoned us last night of the departure of troops from that place for Nogales and keeps in touch with us by the telephone. "The Mexicans have confiscated the Southern Pacific railroad running from Nogales through the state of Sonora and along the west coast of Mexico through the state of Sinaloa and Tepic. They took over all the en gines and other rolling stock Saturday night and no trains are running on the line except military trains. "As soon as the American troops enter Mexico about the first thing they will do will be to take Sonora and

Sinaloa and keep the railroad open. The western part of Sonora is rather sparsely settled. "Have not heard from Tom for sometime. The only way I can stir him up is to write him a letter that will awaken him. All join me in love and best wishes. Will drop you postal occasionally. "Tours, J. J. CHATHAM."

HARKNESS' STATEMENT.

Says Hia Course Might be Misconstrued In School Board Matter. feditor of The Tribune:—The newspaper reports of the action of School Trustee Henry F. Schmidt left the impression that he had the support of the "whole hoard' when he advised Principal W. S. Donaldson to withdraw the invitation to Rev. J. F. Shea, of St Ann's church to speak at the Sandison school commencement. Such was not the case.

Mr. Henry Schmidt and I were standing at Seventh and Wabash avenue a few evenings before the incident discussing several things relative to school affairs. I remarked that I had. had a phone call during the day from a patron of the Sandison school wanting to know "If it would be necessary for his child to go to the school and listen to a speech by a Catholic priest (Father Ryves) in order foi the child to receive its diploma." In answer to the question. I told the patron that I was not sun» about it, but I did not think it was. Later I called Mr. Waits and put the name question to him and he answered "certainly not, the child will get its diploma whether it does or Soes not go tj hoar the speech." After relating the foregoing Mr. Schmidt remarked that he would see Mr. Donaldson about it. The conversation drifted to other school matters and we finally parted with no knowledge on my nart that lie was going to see Mr. Donaldson about any other matter than the clvld's diploma. The press reports might indicate that there had been concerted action taken in this matter when, in fact, I never discussed this question with anyone only as quoted above.
