POSTAL CARD IS TO BE MODIFIED

Hitchcock Admits They Do Not Compare Favorably to Those of Europe.

UNITED STATES IN UNION MIGHT AS WELL PUT OUT CARD8 THAT COMPARE FAVORABLY TO THOSE OF OTHER COUNTRIES IN UNION.

Washington, Aug. 4.-Convinced that the United States postal card is not the thing of beauty that it might be and that , It does not compare f avorabl y with those of foreign countries, PoseGeneral Hitchcock is studying upon plans to Improve both appearance and quality of the 1-cent message bearers. It is proposed to change the printing and probably the color of the postals. Government chemists are now engaged in analyzing the various samples of paper submitted. Postal cards are manufactured under a private contract, the present one expiring in five months. The postoffice department, however has already asked for bids for the new cards, the contract to run for four years from Jan. 1, . 1910. The value of the contract runs close to $1,000,000 and 75,000,-000 cards must be turned out each month. Up to the present time there are only three bidders. These are the West VlrLuke, Md.; the Universal Supply company of New York city and the Government Printing office. This government Is one of the countries composing, the Universal Postal union, which is about the only union that Uncle Sam has joined. . Inasmuch as we are in the union, however, reasons Mr. Hitchcock, we might as well put out postal cards that show up with those of other countries.

Gary, Ind.. Aug. 4. In accord with their assertion that they would suppress all vice In Gary, the local police today took up the crusade and raided two of the largest drug stores in the heart of the city. The raid which was conducted by Chief of Police Joseph Martin, came as a big surprise to Gary citizens, as it was thought that the police would confine their efforts in the "Patch, where a short time ago. more than fifty "blind pigs" were in operation. Charles Herboltz, proprietor of the. Gary Pharmacy, at Broadway and Sixth avenue, right in the heart of

the business district, and the Steele

Pharmacy, Fifth avenue and Virginia

street, owned by J. Steele of Chicago, were the places raided. These are in

ings, but the women put them to rout.

Some of the strike breakers were so

eager to get to the mills and inside the enclosure they forgot to get their

belongings.

The trouble took place' some dis

tance from the gates and was over so

quickly the officers at the gates were

unable to apprehend any of the wom

members are making every effort to

identify the offenders. It is probable

the line of South I street, where most

of the strike breakers travel to and
