REDUCING THE PRICE OF FOOD J housekeepers, and Mayor Gaynor in
PRODUCTS.
The movement to lower the prlceB
of food to the masses of the people
Is a world-wide one, and its vitality,
strength and energy are maintained
by reason of the necessity of action.
In the majority of the cases in which
positive results have been secured the
reductions in prices have been ob-
tained by bringing the producers into
closer relations with the consumers,
cutting out' the middlemen, and this
plan Beems to be favored in ail dis-
cussions of the subject, says the Cin-
cinnati Enquirer. In Kansas City,
indianapolis and other places in the
' nlted States, efforts have been made
to bring the farmers, with their
producto, into direct touch with the

a recent address in New York advo-
cated the establishment of market
places in various parts of the greater
city looking to this elimination of
commission men and other classes of
middlemen so that the people could
be freed from the profits accruing
to the intermediaries.
So pressing are the demands of the
people of Germany for a reduction in
the prices of the necessities of lifp
thut the government has ordered all
duties off breadstuffs and lowered the
rates of freight upon the railways for
provisions to the minimum. The gov-
ernment has also effected an arrange-
ment by which the interior towns and
cities are to be supplied daily with
quantities of fish direct from the
ocean, which are said to be sold to
the people at a low price, thus at one
and the same time adding variety to
their markets and bringing the prod-
ucts of the sea to aid in the suste-
nance of the people. Many tons of
ocean fish were disposed of at fair
prices In Berlin last week through
this governmental agency, and it was
proved a most popular measure of re-
lief from the existing high prices of
meat and breadstuffs. In the Philli-
p-ne Islands the governor has but re-
cently arranged to smash the rice
combine, which has been hoisting
skyward the prices of that staple
food of the millions of people upon
the islands. He has planned for car-
goes of rice to be brought from vari-
ous Asiatic ports that will be sold to
the people at prices far below those
which the speculating rice combine
had hoped to realize. In all the coun-
tries of the globe it is obvious that
one of the most effective methods of
reducing the prices of foodstuffs i3
the elimination of the middlemen as
far as possible, thus making the deal-
ings direct between producers and
consumers. A combine, a trust, a
corner in foodstuffs will not be tol-
erated. Any restrain upon the free
exercise of the law of supply and de-
mand iii articles that are a food sup-
ply for the people should be imme-
diately removed.
A1 H. Wilson, aptly styled Amer-
icas foremost German comedian,
will be seen at the Becker Theater
on Fr'day, Nov. 3, in the stellar role
of "A German Prince," which is con-
ceded to be the best vehicle pro-
vided for this entertaining comedian
since the time that his star of as-
cendancy was first noticed in the
theatrical horizon. One thing in
particular can be said of a Wilson
performance—that it is alwals clean
and artistic, while the star is capable
of reaching across the footlights and
touching the heartstrings of human
nature with the tuneful notes of his
entrancing love songs, and he can,
with equal ease, start a cyclone of
laughter with his funny jests and
qulbs, made more humorous by his
quaint German dialect. No one can
hear Mr. Wilson in his German char-
acter without forgetting trouble, and
it is worth going far to hear him
.sing "When You Part from the Girl
JTou Love," "Her Smile." "Memory, '
and "Songs of the Fatherland."
Denison, Tex , Oct. 30.—It was an-
nounced here Sunday that on Nov. 4
there will be held a joint meeting
in Denison of the general chairmen
and grievance committees of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen
Order of Railway Conductors, Broth-
rhood of Locomotive Engineers and
Brotherhood of Locomotive Firemen
and Engrinemin of the entire Katy
system from Galveston to St. Louis.
A similar meeting was held at Se-
dalia, Mo., several weeks ago, at
which, it is said, the question of the
separation of the orders on the M.,
K. and T. system w&s brought up.
The first meeting was called by the
Brotherhood of Locomotive Engi-
neers, but later the other organiza-
tions sent their delegates to meet
with them. The question of separa-
tion was not settled at the Sedalia
meeting and it is believed that the
meeting here next Sunday is for that
purpose.
Since the Sedalia meeting the
Katy carmen have struck following
the refusal of the Katy to make a
system agreement with them, and as
the trainmen are asking for iden-
tically the same thing, it is not im-
probable that more labor trouble will |
ensue within ihe next 30 days.

Oklahoma City, Oct. 30.—E. L.
Hendrey, president of the All Night
and Day Bank of Memphis, Tenn.,
seems to be indictment and informa-
tion proof in Oklahoma County, for
Justice Sam Bartell dismissed tho
case brought against him on com-
plaint of Secretary Eckford of tho
Western and Southern Insurance Co.
Saturday afternoon. This makes the
fourth time a criminal suit has been
commenced against the Memphis man
since the convening of the recent
grand jury, and also the fourth time
the case has been knocked out of
court
The case being thrown out of
court Saturday rested on the fact
that the Western and Southern In-
surance Co. held a certificate of de-
posit for $6,180, from the All Day
and Night Bank of Memphis, which,
it was alleged, was turned over to
Abner Davis by Hendrey, without
any record of it being put on th.
books of the Memphis bank. Davis
deposited It with the Insurance com-
pany, of which he was an official at
the time, taking up a certificate of
deposit on the Union Savings Bank
of Shawnee, which was regular In
every respect.
It Is claimed by Hendrey that
while the amount of this certiflcat
of deposit doe6 not appear on the
books of his bank, it was lumped ii
with two others and the entry made
of the three items in one trans-
action. It Is also denied by Hendrey
that there was anything irregular
about the transaction, and that the
certificate of deposit is not good.
A demurrer was also sustained to
the information returned against Ab-
ner Davis on a charge growing out
of the same transaction, Justice Bar-
tell holding that neither of the in-
formations is a violation of the laws
In terms plain enough to justify him
In binding the two men. or either of
them, over to the District Court.
