OVER INITIAL IMP

Words of Praise for Excursion Which Yesterday Invaded the Southern Indiana Section.

'Jlerre Haute boosters on the Chamber of Commerce "get-acquainted" trip Thursday reached the Union station at -11 o'clock last night after participating ift one of the most successful enterprises ever undertaken by the organization.

The stone quarries at Oolitic and the great stone works at Bedford were the chief point of interest during the day's trip, and the excursionists returned home loaded down with souvenirs, not only of the many places visited during the day, but many of these, too. were furnished by the merchants and the business houses represented on the trip.

Officials of the Bedford stone industry took charge of Col. Clifford's command at the quarries. The one hundred and eighty-five travelers perched "themselves high on the edge of the great hole in. the earth, and the workers with their portable, automatic engine drills sent the last strokes into a bulk of stone fifty feet long and twelve feet deep, and with a signal from the derrick men, the engines tugged and the great wall of stone toppled over into the base of the ^quarry. From there it "was hoisted in sections which, to the jslpectator, seemed about the size of a 'brick building, or some such bulk.

The banquet at Bedford was served in the Central Christian church. It Was an informal neighborly affair with ho speeches to halt the more serious purpose of the diners and the Terre "Haute crowd was joined by about one hundred Bedford men who participated

In-the dinner. The trip to Bedfo.rd was the first visit of many of the Terre Hauteans. The town has been called the "Stone City" and a visit reveals how appropriate is the name. Stone is the chief building material. There are stone streets, stone sidewalks ana J. N. Hickman even discovered stone roofs, slabs of stone making roofs that would seemingly be invulnerable to trie elements and the despair of the insurance agent.

Bedford folks had out their autos. There were fifty or more and every Hottentot who wanted to ride about the beautiful streets had but to hail a Bedford citizen and his oar. The roundVP was at the church where the ban-, quet was served.

H. V. D. King, secretary of the Indiana Limestone Quarrymen's associatjqjn, furnished every Terre Haute man jtoith a booklet^ excellently printed and illustrated, giving a history of the Ilinestone industry in Bedford.

Col. Clifford, of the Chamber of Commerce, said Friday that any of the ,*Terre Haute mein who intended makihg tt|e trip and Who were prevented by unlooked for circumstances,could have foe cost of their tickets refunded on return of the tickets.

dred million dollars would that have cost the people of the United States? "Viewed from any standpoint, the strike should haye been stopped. The railroad presidents never claimed the establishment of an eigh't-hour day would increase wages more than $60,000,000 a year. The men asserted it would not Increase wages $20,000,000 a year. The increase will probably have been nothing like even the latter sum.

Computes Cost of Strike. "But what would a strike have cost the railroads? No man capable of making any intelligent estimate will claim that a strike Qf one week's duration would not have cost the railroad companies more than $60,000,000. A strike of a month with the damages resulting direct to the railroads, the damages which would have been collected for failure to carry freight, the general disorganization of railroad business, coupled with the loss which would come to the railroads through the complete disorganization of the country's business, would beyond asiy doubt have entailed a loss upon the railroads of half a billion dollars. The strike, therefore, like war, would only have brought irreparable damage and injury to the railroads. "What was conceded in order to stop the strike? Congress already established the eight hour day 'in all government employments. It simply extended the principle of the eight hour day to the men engaged In the hazardous business of operating trains upon the public highways of the country."

Bell obtained such bad information," he continued. "The Villistas carried absolutely nothing away with them except some of the prisoners from the penitentiary, many of which have since returned here.

HUGHES "PLAYS HYPOCRITE." Schomburg Says So and Refuses to Join Candidate's League.

NEW YORK, Sept. 22.—Frederick H. Schomburg, recently progressive candidate for sheriff of Kings county, has declined an invitation to join the Hughes Progressive league. "Don't forget that I am on the side of Germans," Mr. Schomburg says, "but at the same time I believe President Wilson has acted with absolute Impartiality and neutrality, and that those citizens of German birth or extraction who oppose him do go because they want a president who will do something for Germany and something against England. "Hughes, to my mind, is playing the hypocrite and pulling wool over the eyes of his German-American supporters to get their votes. Roosevelt spoke straight from the shoulder: Hughes dares not, and the game he is playing to hold the German-American vote is un-American."

SOFIA, Sept. 22.—Only minor flghton all the Bulgarian fronts, with no change in the general situation, is reported in an official statement issued by the war office today.

ATHENS, Sept. 22.—Constantino Melas, deputy for Janina, has published an appeal to the inhabitants of Epirus asking them to join in the national defense movement started at Saloniki.

The committee of national defense was organized at Saloniki by Greek military officers and prominent civilians in the last days of August. The committee established what it termed the "provisional government of Macedonia" and addressed an appeal to the Greek people and a rimy urging them to drive the Bulgarians from Greek soil. On September 3, a Saloniki dispatch stated that the eleventh army division, the police and the liberal or Venizolist party in Macedonia had joined the revolutionary movement and that a general mobilization had been decreed in the province.

LONDON, Sept. 22.—The reports which have been current for some time that Bulgaria agreed not to attack Rumania when the latter nation declared war on Austria-Hungary are supported by a statement made today by a Rumanian official in London.

Averesco, formerly Rumanian war minister, who led the forces which invaded Hungary, was transferred from Transylvania to Dobrudja only after evidence had been obtained that they intended to break their word. "The German plan of capturing the town of Constanza anq the great bridge over the Danube has failed definitely," he continued. "The Bulgarians will realize the mistake made in following national instincts and being unable to keep their word."
