strikebreakers removed from the vicin-
ity of this city anil reports that an ev-
en greater number held in St. Louis
for importation here had been sent
east fears that clashes might occur be-
tween the men and sympathizer of the
employes of the Kansas City Railways
company who walked out last Wednes-
day were dispelled for the time being.
The strike situation early today was
a complete deadlock.
The company nas offered some con-
cessions chiefly among them to main-
tain an "open shop" but the strikers de-
mand full recognition of their organixa-
Uon. Company Blame City.
The street car company Issued a state-
ment this morning that no cars would
be sent from their terminals until 'ade-
quate protection of car crews could
be guaranteed by the police depart-
ments. Charges were made by the
company that police and fire depart-
ments were lax in their efforts to sub-
due the crowd of rioters Saturday night.
A Joint committee of both houses of
the city council met today to work out
plans for an attempt to throw the street
car company in the hands of a receiver
so that the city might participate in the
operation of cars. At the same time
the company was understood to be pre-
paring to ask an injunction in the fed-
eral court restraining interference with
the operation of can.
Great Discomfort lo People.
Today brought the greatest discom-
forts to cititens of any of the seven
days of the strike. A heavy rain fell
throughout the rush hours motor traf-
fic was partially demoralised and few
persons were able to reach the down-
town district In other than wet and
soaked condition.

COULD HARDLY GET
ABOUT THE HOUSE
Couldn't Pour Out Medicine' Without
BpBflai II She Was So Ner-
vous Troubles Overcome.
"At the time I started on Tanlac I
could barely hobble about the house and
was so nervous I couldn't pour the med-
icine out in a spoon without spilling it"
saiil Mrs. Frances Hodges in an Inter-
view at her residence. 1900 Coekrell
street Dallas Texas. "Grandma Hodg-
es." as she is fondly called by all her
neighbors has lived in Dallas for many
years and her statement regarding the
improved condition of her health will
lie read with Interest by hundreds who
know and respect her.
T have had a bad case of stomach
trouble bothering me for ten or twelve
years." she continued "and I got so
nervous the least little thing would com-
pletely upset me. For the past three
years I have not lieen able to eat or
sleep to do any good. I never had
much appetite and the little I did man
age to eat would bloat me up with gas
and keep me In misery for hours. I had
a hurting In my right side and a burn-
ing In my stomach all the time Just
like fire. I could hardly sleep at all
and some nights I would Just lay awake
and toss and roll nearly all night. I
felt that I was right on the verge of
nervous prostration and my hands were
so trembly I couldn't raise a cup of
coffee to my mouth without sloshing
It out. I didnH seem to have a par-
ticle of strength and couldn't walk
a block without stopping to rest three
or four times.
"I sent for a .bottle of Tsnlar and
when I got It I couldn't hold a spoon
steady enough to iiour out a dose with-
out spilling It and my daughter h; tu
lour it for me. I have now finished
my third bottle of Tanlac and it has
helped me beyond words to express.
My nerves are more steady and quiet
than they have been in six or seven
years. I can pour out my own Tanlac
without spilling it and drink my coffee
without my hand shaking and trem-
bling. I don't have to stay awake and
walk the floor at night like I did. but
I can lay down and sleep like a child.
I have a fine appetite and am not both-
ered with Indigestion and gas on my
stomach any more. I have gained more
than ten iunds In weight and my
strength is built up so I can walk sev-
eral blocks without any trouble. 1 am
now sixty-four years of age and of
oourse don't expect to feel like a right
young person again but Tanlac has been
a wonderful thing for me and since
taking it I feel stronger and btttsf
and enjoy better health than I have in
many years. Everybody ought to know
what Tanlac is doing for suffering
people and I am glad to tell them what
It has done for me."
