The Chicago office of the Standard Oil Co.'s baseball team wilt meet the Whiting office team at the Grays grounds Saturday, Aug. 24, at 3:30 p. m., and a lively game is looked for. Dave Praeder, the colored shoe shiner who has his stand on New York avenue, evidently suffered from the effects of too much "fire-water" on Wednesday evening. After Indulging all day "D." as he Is commonly known, came down New York avenue, and seeing Thomas CerajowskTs automobile standing alone, climbed in the machine, placed his hand on the wheel and went peacefully asleep, evidently having visions of experiencing a fine joy ride. Pedestrians came along, and from appearances It looked as though the colored man was dead, but as It was, he

was only dead drunk. An effort was made to arouse htm, but after ordinary methods were resorted to, it was of no

avail, so an electric shock was given

him. This also proved of no use, as the dreams was too sweet to be awakened. Finally when the men who were

about at their wits ends as what to do. Officer Nlziolkiewlcz came to the scene and had Praeder hauled to the police station In a wagon. It was shortly after being lodged in a cell that "D" awoke and was much surprised to find himself wake up in jail, when he went to sleep in an automobile. In memory of my beloved husband, Hubert Ingraham. requiem mass will be hold on Aug. 24th, at Whiting. Ind. MRS. HERBERT INGRAHAM.

STEEL AND IRON ACTIVE "Nearby rather" than far future needs of buyers are the dominating factor In finished steel," says the Iron Age. "In pig Iron current buying is largely for the first quarter of 1913. There Is definite effort by important producers of steel to eliminate premiums and to keep the situation within bounds. Contract business for forward delivery Is more of a factor than in midsummer. Much of It is for car butlders. A Canadian car company haa placed 60.000 tons of plates and shapes with the steel corporation for the 6,000 cars bought by the Canadian Pacific. Western car works have been buyers of a round tonnage. There is evidence that car buying haa been greater than reported. "Besides the 220.000 tons of rail orders already reported for the next year Inquiries for more than that amount are pending at Chicago, In

cluding 80,000 tons for the Northwestern, a large tonnage for the St. Paul, 15,000 tons for the Great Northern and 75,000 tons for the Santa Fe. The Harrlman lines are In the market for 24,000 tons more for this year. The Kansas City. Mexico and Orient has bought 8,500 tons. In the export trade is an order for 12,000 tons for Argentina which will be filled at Pittsburg. "Some producers have advanced prices for bars and for plates and structural shapes $1 a toti, or to 1.35 1.40c, Pittsburg, respectively. The leading Interest Is allll selling bars at l.0c and plates and. shapes at 1.35c. Structural work Is being placed at higher prices. From low point fabricated steel has now come up $8 on large business. Contracts Just announced at oil bids Include 14,000 tons for the Baltimore hotel and 10,000 tons for the Western Union building, New York. Jn the east railroads have placed about 12,000 tons for

bridges. The largest western bridge contract is 5,000 tons for the St. Paul. "Buying of foundry pig iron for 1913 is going on In a large way. Prices on northern have advanced Irregularly, but the average is about 25c for the week. Southern Iron Is firmer at $13 Birmingham for No. 2 for this year, and $12.50 is the usual basis for first quarter of 1913." Mills In the Chicago district, accord-

LABOR NEWS

The cost to the union of the button workers' strike at Muscatine, Is., which was called off, was $79,000. The employes of the government printing bureau at Ottawa, Ont. have received an increase of $1.80 a week. A "lady barbers " union Is the very latest addition to the ranks of organised labor In 8an Francisco, Cal. A movement Is under way for the establishment of a home for disabled members of the Coopers' International union. In its work of diminishing the prevalence of disease and mortality the New York state department of health has asked the co-operation of labor unions throughout the state. Workingmen of Montreal identified with various local unions have de cided to honor the memory of J. A. Rodier, the founder of the Montreal

Trades and Labor Council, by erecting a monument. Railway car men on the 'southern railway and allied lines. In conjunction with other crafts of the system foderatton, have recently secirred a renewal of their agreement In which a substantial Increase In pay and beneficial working Tiles were secured.' '? Twelve members of the St. Paul Barbers' union went to St. Joseph's orphan asylum on a recent Sunday and cut the hair of eight-eight orphan bbys- there free of charge, making this sacrifice of their holiday for the good of the union and organised labor in general. Steps were taken at a meeting of wireless operators In Hoboken to arrange for' the organisation of a worldwide union of wireless telegraphers, and a resolution wag passed to put the question of forming such a union to a referendum vote of all the operators in the world. At the Retail Clerks' International union convention, recently held in Columbus, O., It was decided to Invade Canadaand organize it from one end to the other. An army of men will start out at once with the intention of placing a local union in every town and city In the Dominion. " According to the latest returns received by the statistical bureau of the state department of labor, at the end of March there were 3,454 labor organisations In New York state, with a total

Umembershlp of 497,665. This Is a de

crease of 6,649, or a little more than 1 per cent since Sept SO, 1911. From a report Just Issued by Secretary Frank Morrison of the executive council of the American Federation of Labor it appears that during the first seven months of the current fiscal year members of the federal labor and trades unions, which have no International organization, but are affiliated with the American Federation of Labor, have received In strike benefits, on the basis of $4 a week a man, an aggregate of $50,050.
