DPTiUll SECURED BY BOARD WORKS Secure a Site on West End of Lincoln Street for a Hose House. CHIEF MILLER DELIGHTED mm WE THINKS THAT THE END OF THE PRESENT YEAR WILL SEE THE BUILDING COMPLETED IS GOOD LOCATION. ' About the only real optimistic person as to the probability of a hose "house on the west side during the present administration is Chiet Miller. He believes there will be something really exciting doing within a hort time. The board of works, has an i option on a lot on West Fifth stfeet, land .Miller says he would not be surprised to see a new house up by the first of next year. . The option secured by the board is i on a lot in the Peacock addition, at the west end of Lincoln street A ninety-foot frontage would be offered s-nd a depth as great as desired could 1 obtained. The land is well drained, located on a hillside and would offer a beautiful building site. . Fifth street Is a little narrow, but this would not necessarily conflict any 'with a team emerging from the building as they tart from a standstill and gain no momentum by the time the door is reached. Fifth street . is believed advisable as it is a thoroughfare from one corporate limit to the other. So Biany of the West Richmond streets have offsets or are intercepted in some way. ; City Grows' Westward. ' The city is expected to grow westward and by putting the house on Fifth street it would be found centrally located ten years or so from the present. The eastern section , of the West Side ' does not need the additional fire protection as much as that farther west, north and south. Just now the question of a West Bide hose house is prominent in .politics. - The republican candidates are appealing for votes from that part of the city (there are about 4,000 residents west of the river) and the hose house proposition appears in the platforms. ' Yoa Will Enjoy Darning Gccd Cost west people hate to take care yt a fire and remove the ashes,' ut after all, everybody enjoys the , comfort and satisfaction ' that comes from burning bright new shiny coal such as ours.

LABOR LEADERS RECEIVED WITH BEAMING SMILE President Taft Yesterday Warmly Greeted the Chiefs Of Organized Labor Who Called on Him. THEIR ACTIVITY IN CAMPAIGN FORGOTTEN Executive Learns Views of Gompers and Others Upon Trade Unionism and Promised to Lend Aid.
Washington, April 17. Leaders of organized labor, some of whom took the stump last fall and advocated the election of William J. Bryan as president, had an amicable conference, lasting several hours yesterday afternoon, with President Taft. Its object was to enable the president to ascertain the precise views of trades unionism upon several important questions affecting its interests, in anticipation of the drafting of his annual message to congress next December. Samuel Gompers, President of the American Federation, whose activity in behalf of the democratic ticket in the last campaign was the greatest of all the labor chieftains, was among those participating in the conference, and his reception by the president was as cordial as that extended to any of his conferes. Set Forth Views. , The labor leaders presented a statement setting forth their views and desires as to new legislation and during the discussion which followed they had ample opportunity to advance all the arguments in their support. The president, without committing himself on any of the various proposi tions submitted, said he .would give consideration to all of them and make such recommendations as were consistent with his own views. ' It is not expected that he will go as far as the leaders do with respect to anti-injunction legislation or amending the Sherman anti-trust law so that it will not interfere seriously with boycotts. A Real Love Feast. Mr. Gompers declared that the president not only gave the spokesmen of the party all the time they desired to lay their matters before him, but joined himself in the discus sion from time to time to bring out fuller information on the various sub jects. When the conference reached its close the president told his callers that he would investigate such of the matters presented which seemed to him to require such action, and that he would be glad to help, as far as bis opportunities would permit, in arriving at a proper solution of the diffi culties in which the working people found themselves, while at the same time keeping the interest of the whole people in view. The labor leaders seemed pleased with their reception. Take up Problems. They took up with the president an imposing array of problems, including the matter of . injunction, the eighthour law, convict labor, the recent indictment of labor leaders in the South for alleged violations of the Sherman anti-trust law, the danger of a dissolution of all labor organizations under a strict interpretation of recent decisions by the Supreme court, the maintenance of international peace, labor problems on the Panama canal, the adherence to the right of asylum in this country for political offenders from other lands and child labor. President Taft told the labor leaders that he regarded the matter of an anti-injunction law as one of the most important phases of his administration. He added that he felt he had made his position clear on the subject in his speech of acceptance last July at Cincinnati, and had confirmed that position in his Inaugural address. The president said he would be glad to consult further with, the representatives of organized labor, as to amendment, &c, when a bill for the next congress has been framed". ' Mr. Charles P. Neill, the government commissioner of labor, was present throughout the hearing. fhe members of the executive council who called, besides Samuel Gompers, were Frank Morrison. James Duncan. John Mitchell, James O'Connell, Max Morris, William Huber. John B. Lennon, John R. Alpine and Joseph Valentine. Laud the Government. In beginning the interview with the president, Mr. Gompers said the council desired first of all to express appreciation of the action of the government in standing by the principles of the right of asylum in the United States for persons charged with political offenses in other countries, as exemplified in the recent cases of Pouren and Rudowitz. the Russian refugees. ' With reference to convict labor, Mr J Gompers told the president that organized labor desires only- that this class of labor shall be regulated, not prohibited. The idea is to prevent convictmade goods and work from coming into competition with the labor of free men. Coming to the present status of labor organizations, under recent decisions of the courts, the discussioned widened broadly. It centered about i the Supreme court decision, in the famous hatters case, V under : which ' certain phases of labor organization methods were declared to be In contravention of the Sherman anti-trust law. of that

Men can be arrested, indicted and sentenced to a year in prison and a fine of $5,000. Officers and members ef the union also can be proceeded against civilly and threefold damages assessed against them in any amount that may be complained of by any person claiming to have suffered by reason of men quitting work or withholding their patronage." President Taft was asked if there was any truth in the report that American worklngmen, principally - laborers belonging to American unions, are being laid off at the Isthmus of Panama to make room for foreigners. The president said he had not even heard of such a report and did not believe it could be true.

AHHEUSER-BUSCH IS BADLY SCARED Brewery Fears It Will Have to Move and Sets Up a Cry for Help. A FIGHT ON SUBMISSION MISSOURI BANKERS AND MANUFACTURERS ARE TO STORM THE LEGISLATURE TO HOLD UP STATE PROHIBITION. St. Louis, Mo., April 17. The Anheuser-Busch Brewing association, one of the greatest institutions of its kind In the world, is frightened at the pros pect of state-wide prohibition for Missouri. In a statement issued by Adolphus Busch, head of the company, an appeal is made to St. Louis financial and commercial institutions to aid in the fight against submission, the statement showing the possibility of the city losing one of its greatest industrial establishments. The- statement follows: "We have so much confidence in the good sense and liberality of the people of Missouri that we are not planning to move from St. Louis and the state. We do not want to move from the city where our world wide business has been built up. I personsally would deeply regret leaving St Louis, wholly apart from considerations of business, because I love the city, but if we are forced to go we will move across the river. "Our industry is a perfectly legitimate one one of the greatest revenue payers to the national, state and city governments and one of the largest employers of labor; therefore, why should it not be maintained and sustained? We sell in every country on the globe and must protect our business. "Adolphus Busch." Bankers to Storm Legislature. Forty St. Louis bankers and manufacturers will go before the legislature in person to protest against state wide prohibition. , , The real estate exchange, and the executive council of the Manufacturers' association adopted formal protests against submission, but the Business Men's league and the St. Louis Merchants exchange executive committees refused to place themselves officially on record against the measure, although -many members of each signed protests as individuals. The senate committee on judiciary at Jefferson City yesterday reported without recommendation the Humphrey bill providing for statutory prohibition. The measure will go on the calendar for engrossment, but its final disposition is uncertain. Lid Bills in Arkansas. Little Rock, Ark., April 17.

The Way Rajah Birbar Saved Hit Head by Ready Wit. . Rajah Birbar, a boon companion of the Emperor Akbar, the great contemporary of Queen Elizabeth, was a notable wit. The story gees that the emperor once seat Birbar with a message to the king of Persia.

He asked Birbar: "Which of us two Is greater la power and majesty I or Akbar? ' But mind you. if your an swer Is in any way unfavorable to me I will order your bead ' to be struck off."Tour majesty, replied Birbar without loss of time, "Is like the fall moon, while the emperor, my master, resembles the crescent" ; The king was highly pleased with his reply and let him go. This news was. however, carried to Akbar, who was wild with rage when he beard it- When Birbar returned to his master's court be was asked to ex plain himself on pain of death. -My comparison. said Birbar, "meant only this much and nothing more that the decline of the Persian king's power had commenced, just as the foil moon, after It Is fan,' goes on waning, while roar majesty Is destined to rise on and one till, like the crescent becoming the full moon In time. It wiD shine forth with magnificent splendor of glory. The emperor, who was a great patrca of wit and wisdom, heaped the rajah wtta rewards. .

Among the spectators were signor Sonnino, formerly prime minister.. i A Second Flight. The second flight began at 10:45. Mr. Wright's passenger being Lieutenant Savola, of the engineers, who will be the second pilot, both the army and navy desiring to have its own pilots.

In the second flight, Mr. Wright, instead of describing circles around the Pylone, flew over the plain of Centocelle. He approached so closely the villa of Centocelleres where he is stopping, that it was thought he was going to come down in the garden, but he flew further beyond the Torre Pignattara at a height of more than SO meters and came down after a total flight of 10 meters and five seconds. The Third Flight.. The third flight was accomplished with Captain Castagneris, secretary of the Aviation club, as a passenger. It lasted five minutes.
