n is MUCH WORRIED now Over the Possible Effect of Wiley:WiIson-McCabe Department Feud. (Palladium Special WASHINGTON. Aug. 19. Friends Of the administration are giving unmistakable signs of worry over the possible political effect of the Wilson- Wil-ey-McCabe fued. Before the Moss investigating committee took it up it was apparent that the public was overwhelmingly in favor of the doughty doctor as against the wily solicitor and with the evldency anything like even between them Dr. WIly would be sustained by public opinion. Llttle testimony had been taken before the majority of the committee was convinced of three facts; first that if Dr. Wiley was guilty of any infraction of law In connection with the appolntIment of Dr. Rusby as pharmacogocist. there were plenty of precedents .for Ibis action, created by Secretary Wilaon and Solicitor McCabe; second that 1f Dr. Wiley had erred he had done so on the side of the people and not on the side of the food-dopers; nd third, i that If he lost his position there would I be a howl from the American people fthat could be beard around the world, incidentally, the testimony showed 'that for some years Dr. Wiley had j.been completely shorn' of power In conectlon with the administration of the pure food act. The committee I was therefore ready to report exonerating Dr. Wiley a few days after it tbacan Ita investigations, but It was i on the track of too interesting material. "Doc" Wiley Is a Hoosier and "back Ibome" they think a heap of him. He et Indiana right on pure food before the left there thirty years ago to work ;for the government. Indiana glories :in what is probably the best pure food law In the country. .Certain manufacturers, seeking to force on the Hooslers their health authorities have condemned, have tried to upset the law nd have it declared unconstitutional. To assist them the department of agriculture loaned these manufacturers auch witnesses as they desired, Including the famous Remson board, the deparment paying the expenses. The state of Indiana had to furnish its own witnesses and was put to all the expense and trouble possible by the department of agriculture. These facta are percolating through the minds of the Indiana tax payers and voters and they are getting "all het up," and the longer the rumpus continues the hotter they are getting. At least that la about the substance of a letter addressed to the President by an Indiana Republican politician of considerable prominence, who believes the Wlley-WUson-McCabe row Is calculated to result disastrously on his party unless speedily and satisfactorily settled. - BURY HUGEJAMMER Enid, Okla. Knockers Have 1 'Sworn Off. ENID, Okla., Aug. 19. "He Is dead." "Who?" "Why, old hammer, emblem of the knocker, pessimist and grouch." The foregoing sentiment may be seen now placarded about Enid, where the people may read. Out.of the depth of dissension and discord the city has emerged with spirit renewed. Enid chose for the symbol of its former unhappy existence a gigantic hammer made of wood and cloth. A grave was prepared and while the band played and the people cheered the hammer was buried. 10,000 Witness Burial. The ceremony was witnessed by railroad officials, secretaries of commercial clubs of. the state and nearly ten thousand persons. Enid began a campaign this summer to overcome discord by uniting on a plan to build a packing plant by the sale of lots. The successful conclusion of the campaign was the occasion for an Immense hammer burial, the first to be held in the state. The hammer was thirty feet long and ten feet high. A wooden frame was covered with strawboard and draped with black cloth. The funeral car was a wide truck draped in black and drawn by four horses. The procession contained grotesque floats typical of the burial. , Ston la Erected After the old hammer was laid in the ground, the mourners marched around and threw In paper hammers. A stone was erected at the head of the grave. Engraved on it were these words: "In memory of old Hammer. "Died Aug. 18, 1911, from overwork." Prior to the burial the hammer was placed in state in the chamber of commerce rooms. Hundreds of citizens viewed the great black emblem, and during the week wore little paper hammers promising never to knock Enid again. , Almost every business firm in the city was represented by floats.

INSURGENT TYPOS LOST CONTENTION (National News Association) San Francisco, Aug. 19. Insurgency in the International Typographical Union lost its first battle in the convention here, in a test of strength, and as a result the regular faction of the organization is having things all its own way. Cleveland, Ohio, has been chosen for the next meeting place. Following a charge made by Delegate George Koop, of Chicago that a "ring dominated the Union. President Lynch called him down and dared him to press bis charges.
WILL INVESTIGATE HIGH MEAT COSTS
Cattle Raisers of Texas Will Hold Important Convention Soon. (Palladium Special) SAN ANTONIO. Texas, Aug. 19. The meeting of the cattle growers of Texas and representatives of various cities and other organizations at Fort Worth, September 12 and 13. for the purpose of Investigating the high cost of meats and the great discrepancy that now exists between the price paid for live stock on foot and the meat on the block, ia attracting nation-wide attention. That there will be something unusual doing at this meeting is indicated by the Interest manifest. Discussing the meeting and what it hopes to accomplish. Captain Charles Schreiner, of Kerrville, a prominent sheep and cattle raiser, said: "We shall attempt to find out why there is a variance of 300 per cent between what the producer receives and what the consumer pays, and will endeavor to take action to remedy this condition; at least we will start a crusade that will not stop until this question is equitably settled. There must be a solution of the problem, and for the salvation of both consumer and producer it must be arrived at shortly. When the producer is selling his cattle at a loss and the consumer is paying an exhorbitant price for his meat, the situation evidences an economic discrepancy that can not long continue. The trouble lies with the packer and retailer, and I am inclined to believe that the latter Is even more to blame than the former. However, it is hard to fix the blame at the present time, but it stands to reason that there is somothing radically wrong. This year the producer is receiving $2 per hundred less than he received last year, yet the price of meat has steadily advanced. So it appears there is illegitimate profit somewhere between the producer and the consumer. If profit was made last year when higher prices were paid for cattle and sheep, surely the profit is now excessive." Just what course will be pursued at the Fort Worth meeting is not known, but that something will be done to get at the facts in the case is evidenced by the widespread Interest in the coming meeting. Sporting Gossip KEEPING TAB ON THE MINORS Outfielder Biltz, of the Peoria team, is leading the Three I league in hitting. Pitcher Dale, formerly with Boston and Providence, is now back with the Dallas team of the Texas league. Second baseman Berghammer of the Kewanee Central association team team has been sold to the Chicago White Sox. President C. R. Williams has added Zeke Wilson to the staff of Virginia league umpires. Wilson is an old ball player. Very few minor league clubs will make any money this season unless they are lucky enough to sell a player for a good price. It is said than manager McGraw of the Giants had to dig to the extent of $4,000 to land outfielder Burns of the Utica team. Pitcher Wolfgang, of the Lowell, New England league team, has won 22 out of 26 games pitched this season. He goes to the St. Louis Browns next season. The St. John Marathons are leading the Provincial league in New Brunswick. Marathoners should be able to run the full distance in any old race. Manager Mike Kelly of St. Paul, who sold O'Toole to Pittsburg for $25,000, has strings on several minor league stars including George Oauss, Duluth's premier twirler. The "Bull" sign at the Jackson, hi: - 1 1 1 - 1 . iiiB3., pain una ueen nil eigni times I this season, and Cotton States league players has drawn $400 for performing this stunt. The Chicago Cubs paid the Youngstown $4,000 for Pitcher Earl Mosley. This is the highest price ever paid for a pitcher in the Ohio and Pennsylvania league. It is a pretty safe bet there will be two more Millers in the big show next season. Outfielder Miller of Montreal and Pitcher Miller of Atlanta are both wanted by major league clubs. Harry Truby, the old Chicago player, who is umpiring in the Mountain State league, had a run-in with a player the other day. When the player showed fight, Truby said: "Go and sit down. I can give you rocks and 111 take buns and run you out of this park." WITH THE BOXERS Maine women are becoming boxing fans. Several of them attended a bout in Augusta recently. Lew Bailey, the Philadelphia promoter, has conducted 500 boxing meetings in the Quaker City. Jim Cof froth may sign Battling Nelson and Freddie Walsh to meet in San Francisco the latter part of this month. Ad Wolgast and Packey McFarland may not meet after all. Seems to be some trouble over 1 the articles of agreement. A SLIGHT ACCIDENT AT THE GAS PLANT A leaky Yalve caused the bursting of a large gas pipi at the gas plant of the Light, Heat and Power company last night. No one was injured. The gas rushed back through the pipes and blew out a number of other valves. Slight damage was done, although It required several hours to place the pipes in repair. "

AVIATORS TO GIVE BEIIEFITJXHIBITIOII Chicago Meet Extended One Day to Raise Money for Mrs. Johnstone.
(National News Association) CHICAGO, Aug. 19. Chicago av- j iation meet will be extended for one! day not by the promoters but by the aviators themselves. This was fully determined today. The 'object is a "benefit meet for Mrs. SC Croix Johnstone, widow of the gallant aviator who was drowned when his biplane fell into Lake Michigan Tuesday. The entire proceeds of the extra day which is expected to amount to about $12,000 are to be banded to Mrs. Johnstone as a mark of the esteem the young birdmen held for her husband. Prediction was made today that more records will be smashed before the meet is over. Oscar Brindley yes terday soared 11,726 feet in the air, breaking the altitude record set two weeks ago by Captain Felix in France. The weather today is perfect and it was said that Brindley might at tempt today to beat his own record and set the mark a little higher. One of the remarkable things about the performance is that Brindley has been flying for only three months. He learned to operate a machine in three hours. Tom Sopwith, the English aviator. has carried off $11,670 in prize money so fap, exceeding his nearest competitor, Lincoln Beachey, by more than $4,000. Sopwith has made remarkable flights as he uses either a monoplane or biplane with equal facility. Aviators today are enraged at the promoters of the meet for a number of things. The continuance of the contest after two men had been killed on Tuesday started them. Then, on two days, they were compelled to fly in high winds, which were dangerous to life and limb. Talk of a strike, however, was to be declared to be without foundation. REPAIRING STREET Street Commissioner Genn is repairing East Fifth street. The road roller is being operated from Main to South A streets and the stret from Main to North A is being torn up. It will be rolled as soon as possible. For some time Fifth street has been in a deplorable condition. During rainy weather the street would be filled with water and the chuck holes were dangerous.
