NEW YORK, Sept. 14.—Leaders of the striking street railway employes estimated that more than ten thousand men would take part in a parade and mass meeting today, while city officials and the heads of both sides of the controversy hebd conferenpes in a further effort to break the deadlock which has partly tied up most of the surface car lines in Manhattan and

Bronx boroughs and Westchester county. The parade was planned to start at 11 o'clock and proceed from Eighth street to Union, Square, where a mass meeting will be held this afternoon. Samuel Gompers, president of the American Federation .of Labor Meyer London, a prominent socialist, and leaders of the carmen's union were on the program as speakers.

Mayor Mitchel admitted he had no plan which promised any settlement of the strike. Suggestions to grant a franchise to a motor omnibus company or to ask the governor to call a special session of the legislature to enact a compulsory arbitration law were rejected by the mayor.

Officials of the transit companies persisted in their refusal to submit their side of the dispute to arbitration and asserted that the service of the surface lines is being increased claily by tjie employment of strike breakers. Nevertheless the elevated and subway lines and steam railroad transportation between Manhattan and Westchester continue greatly congested.

An Old English Handbill

advertised a public warning about coffee in its early days as a beverage in England. It said:

"You are not to drink it after supper unless you intend to be watchful, for it will hinder sleep for three or four hours."

That was 250 years ago. Today it is a wellknown fact that sleeplessness, brought on by coffee drinking, is due to the presence of the drug, caffeine, in coffee. It is also known that coffee drinking is a common cause of various other ills.<p></p>POSTUM the delightful pure lootd-drink was devised especially for people who should not use coffee, but who like a hot beverage with meals. It resembles mild Java coffee in its snappy taste, but contains no coffee, caffeine, nor any harmful element.

questions and to report back to congress of their findings. This, he said, the republicans have had as a plank In their platforms for years but have failed to honor during their years in control. The tariff on dyk stuffs was then discussted and the various phases were explained, to be embodied in the tariff law as a whole which was strongly defended by such republican congressmen as Nicholas Longworth and Henry Cooper and voted for by" 41 republican members, all of the socialists and the one prohibitionist.

Eight-Hour Day Law.

Regarding the eight hour day, Mr. Moss declared that he has always been in favor of this legislation and showed under this heading the government employes and the employes of firms making government contracts are working under the eight-hour day plan created by the present administration". The child labor laws, which prevent any child under the age of 16 years from working in any mine or quarry a,nd then only for eight hours a. day, preventing children under 14 years old from working in any factory or mill and then for only eight hours a day and last but without doubt still the freshest. in the minds •'of the people, the eight hour railroad men's day. "Mr. Hughes has seen fit to attack the democrats for the passage of this law, declaring that it was enacted under compulsion. Back in 1907 when the representatives of the greatest banks in the country complained to the president that a great panic threatening to tie up every industry in the country threatening lives and property all because the republican banking laws were not adequate was not congress called upon to remedy the conditions and did not congress within 48 hours revise the entire banking law to- allow the government to send out enough currency to the banks of the nation and prevent the panic? Mr. Hughes has hot been heard to criticise this work as being under compulsion and the effects of the threatened panic were nothing compared to the injury to commerce, property and life by the threatened strike of the railroad men. And how was this strike averted? When Mr. Wilson was unable to get the heads of the railroads and the representatives of the laboring men to agree, he went before congress and

Beems clear. I can even read fine print without glasses." It is believed that thousands who wear glasses can now discard them in a reasonable time and multitudes more will be able to strengthen their eyes so as to be spared the trouble and expense of ever getting glasses. Eye troubles of many descriptions may be wonderfully ben­

asked for legislation which would enable the arilroad men to continue In their work. Congress, thanks to the republican members, forgot the partisan speeches and party strife for the cause of the people, and simply declared eight hours a working day, and then appointed a commission to watch the effects of the law on the condiitions of the country and on the railroad companies and report back to congress." "An attack pri the eight hour day Is like the mother who wants her son to learn to swim before he goes into the water. It cannot be done any more, than the effects of an eight-hour day could be determined before it was put into effect."

Mr. Moss declared that the only difference in Wilson's way of handling a. strike and that of the presidents of the past is that Mr: Wilson istopped them before they begin. He said the federal reserve bank act will stop panics, too, before they start.

The speaker admitted that the democratic administration has spent more money for the government than the republicans, during a corresponding time, but showed that it was for national defenses and that the governI ment has been operated with a saving in'all other respects.

In l-egard to the bill for the building of a government armour plate plant it was explained that the trust which has been supplying the United States with all of its plate went before the democratic congress and offered to sell their product to the government at 527 less on. the ton, if the bill was not put through the house. When the representatives of the trust were informed that the bill would be carried they changed their offer and,said that they were willing for the government to set a fair price on the plate and they would sell at that figure. The bill was yassed but it was left ko the judgment of the president whether or not the plant would -be built. The speaker declared that if the steel manufacturers keep their promise the plant will not be put up but if they fail the government will build and make its own steel.

Guest of Local Men.

Mr. Moss was the guest of a number of the Vigo county workers after his arrival at 5 o'clock Wednesday evening and he will make the trip to Indianapolis with the Vigo' county delegation to attend the Mashall notification Thursday evening.

In the absence of County Chairman George. A. Moorhead, Clark Oeser, secretary of the Toung Democratic Voters' club, presided over the Wednesday evening meeting and in-, troduced Mr. Moss. Lewis Levy, chairman of the young democrats,
