The Illinois Steel plant at South Chicago has shat down indefinitely, throwing 7,000 men ont of employment. There is no disguising the fact that conditions are not improving very fast in the business world, ana the cities are full of unemployed men. At Columbus, Ohio, in order to relieve the unemployed who have been thrown out of work in the factories, the city council has asked the board of service to employ as many as possible-on all public works. The men are to receive 10 cents per hour, and to secure work must have oertifioates from the factories that laid them off on account of the slack times.
Smith And Webb, the Winamac train riders oharged with burglarizing Marsh Bros, store at Burnettsville the night before Sheriff Oglesby of Pnlaski county was killed by the gang of tramps, were tried in the White cironit court last week and found guilty. It seems that the pushing of this charge was for the purpose of connecting then more fully with the more serious crime of the murder of Sheriff Oglesby, to show that they had committed the burglarly and therefore had good reason to want to escape from the officers when the sheriff attempted to arrest them. The death of the member of the gang who is supposed to have tired the fatal shot made this more necessary on the part of the state, it is said.
