Unless a plant engages in interstate

business the government has no authority to control irregularities in the plant or any violations, of the regulations. ; i . f ' The reason why inspection was retained at the plant of Anton Stolle last May and was withdrawn from the Hoizapfel plant is a matter of history. : i Educational Purpose. Federal inspectors , were sent to Richmond in December, 1907, as a re

sult of a personal visit which Dr.'Chas

S. Bond made to the federal authorities at Washington. Through his personal ; influence, Inspection .was given Richmond for an educational purpose. . In 1907 the bureau of animal industry, a branch of the department of agriculture, bad plenty of money in its treasury, and federal inspection for educational purposes was granted a number f cities, Richmond included. When -the inspection was first given Richmond both Stolle and Holzapfel said they were not doing interstate business.-. Last year the appropriation for the bureau ot animal Industry was almost exhausted, and the Washington authorities began . to withdraw inspectors from plants not doing interstate business. Holzapfel's plant belonged to this class, and the federal inspectors were ordered out of the plant by the government on May 4. Stoile Not Affected. Stolle was not affected by the order. In the summer of 1908 he applied for federal inspection under the interstate! clause. His petition was granted, and Stolle has been operating under inspection since. Federal inspectors will be stationed at his plant so long as he engages in interstate business and his plant, and methods comply w(th the federal regulations. Stolle las had federal inspection since 1908 under his own application and not b virtue of the personal influence of j Dr. Bond which resulted in bringing t ie first meat inspection to Richmond for educational purposes. Holzapfel has operated . under the

of the city council or the local health

authorities. The growth of Stolle's interstate business and his own satisfaction with the benefits and the necessity of federal inspectionhe says, prompted him to have a federal inspector at his plant. Dr. Benke Her. On February 12; 1912, Dr. A. E. Benke, of Washington, assistant chief of inspection In the bureau of animal industry, came to Richmond to inspect the plant of Henry Holzapfel. On April 17, Dr.' Benke made his second inspection of the Holzapfel plant. Shortly after Dr. Benke's second visit, Mr. Holzapfel went . to Washington to confer with the federal authorities. Federal inspection of his plant was withdrawn May 4. zBefore the government withdrew Its inspection it notified Dr. T. c Henry Davis, city health officer, of its. proposed action, in order that r the city might have sufficient time to appoint an inspector if it cared to maintain a watch over the health of its citizens. He Makes Repairs. Mr. Holzapfel began ' to make repairs to his , plant shortly after the first visit of Dr. Benke to this city. Dr. Benke outlined changes that were necessary to make the plant sanitary. It is said that these repairs would not have put Holzapfel to a great deal of expense. , ' , Holzapfel said today that he did not have a written communication -from the federal ? authorities outlining the changes he had to make and stating why federal inspection was withdrawn. He said the contempleted changes would cost his $2,300 if he were to carry them out. After the inspection, was withdrawn Holzapfel made an application for federal inspection , under the interstate clause. A government expert was sent here and he recommended the changes that were necessary before Holzapfel could i ship meat outside of Indiana. The government has not been notified of Holzapfel's attitude on these recommendations.

Baldwin, Clarence Palmer, Mark Duke and Arthur Palmer left this morning to attend the annual convention of the National Horse Thief Detective association at Martinsville. Although the association is a naUonal one, representatives from various parts of this state regulate the affairs, and little interest is taken by men outside of 'the state. An attempt will be made by the4 Richmond delegates to bring the convention to this city in 1913. Wabash is the only other strong competitor for the 1913 convention, t j

Charles Jordan, secretary of the Commercial club, in a- stirring . address after the lunch said that the work: of the Y. M. C! A., makes better young men and that it relieves the churches of part of their work." He paid a high tribute to Mr. Weed, secretary of th' local association. Fred White, an attorney, said that there were 100 persons listed on the teams and that if each one secured four .names the campaign would be a success. The, Rev. Addington . Parker voiced the sentiment of the mjembers.of the teams when he said that he believed that every person present is convincd of the efficacy of the mission of the Y. M. C.

(National News Association) ' VIENNA, Oct. 1. More than 1,000,000 soldiers are on the march today through the Balkans, Russia and Austria in preparation for war in which the actual participants will be Bulgaria, Servia, Montenegro and Greece allied on the one side against Turkey on the other. The mobilizations will cost $10,000,000 even If actual warfare does not result. The military movements in Southern Austria and Poland are in anticipation of an eventuality involving the great powers. Both the Austro-Hungar-ian and Russian governments are converging great masses of troops near the southern frontiers in proximity to the Balkan border. Reports received by the continental governments today from their diplomatic representatives in Constantinople and in the capitals of European Turkey constructed the situation as critical. An actual declaration of war, however, is not expected before the expiration of a fortnight if it comes at all. All the European chancelleries are working to avert an outbreak of hostilities. ' Business Affected. The European bourses today reflected the feverishness and tenseness of the situation.

All the battleships of the Greek navy have been summoned for "maneuvers." All the officers of the Greek army who have been absent on furlough are hurrying home.

DEALERS ADVANCE PRICES OF COAL Quotations Raised on All Grades of Coal in Rich- f

mond, Today.

, Coal prices In Richmond, following the advance all over the country, took a jump today. . i '. Dealers will not promise that the prices fixed today will remain stationary, but assert that other increases are to be expected. , - Mine operators advanced prices yesterday, and this was given as one reason why the reltall price went up here. A threatened car shortage Is said to be another cause ofr the increase. : 1 The increase today was general on all grades of coal. Anthracite coal was advanced from $8.50 to 8.75; twenty five ents was tacked on Pocahontas and stove and gg coal now cost $8.50, an Increase of twenty-five cents. The supply of these grades is said to be small. Local dealers say they bave been unable to secure the orders they placed at the mines, and that a car - shortage , means the delay of weeks In the arrival of shipments.' Mine operators usually advance the price of coal at the mines on October 1, but this year the first .increase in the price was noted in July. Local

dealers believe that this meant there ner accordInK to complaint for di-
