NEW TIME LIMIT FOR RACERS

Modulation.
The light wind which prevailed at Lake
ftnnaun yesterday again prevented any de
cisive race between Kid nnd Andover. al
though two attempts were mado to sail tho
course within the time limit of ono hour
antlve minutes.
At a conference last evening between the
St. Joseph yachtsmen nnd the commlttco
of the Council Hluffs Yacht club It was
agreed to extend tho time limit to ono hour(
and fifteen minutes, tho limit for second
class bents. This ngreemcnt was reached
after Messrs. Vnn Brunt, owners of Kid,
had suggested that the time limit bo taken
off altogether, so that n race could bo
hnd Irrespective of tho vngarles of tho
wind. Tho committee would not ncccpt this
proposition nnd the tlmo limit wns extended
ten minutes Instead. .Mr. Van HrUnt agreed
that If ho should win the cup this tlmo to
return next year with a boat similar to
tha yachts sailed at Lake Manawa, ns he
conceded that it was almost Impracticable
to match two boats so entirely different as
Kid and Andover are.
In tho morning nn attempt was made to
sail the race, but ns Kid, which led, took
40 minutes io m'akb Ihe 'cnurte once". It
was useless with tho light wind prevailing
to 'sail It the second tlmo and expect to
come within the time limit.
In the afternoon tho tlmo consumed In
sailing tho courso onco was 40 minutes.
Kid crossed the line one mlnuto behind
Andoer, but rapidly overhauled It and
rounded the course tho first tlmo four min
utes and fifty-seven secor.Ss nhoad of tho
Manawa boat. Both races were pretty OX"
hlblllons of sailing and the skippers of
both ynchts got all they could out of the
light wind thnt was blowing.
J. II. Vnn Brunt left for St. Joseph last
night as his presence Is required nt Lako
Contrary today. This will handicap the
crow of Kid somewhat, ns Mr. Van Brunt
waH tho skipper nnd salllncmafitcr of the
St. Joo yacht.
Both W. T. and J. H. Van Brunt expressed
thomselves last night ns greatly pleased
with the treatment accorded them hero and
while disappointed at the failure to pull
off a good race, had nothing but words of
praise for the local yachtsmen.

Tho events to which the most Interest was
attached were the roadster races with own

race was won by Seth May, but he was set
back, as his horso persisted In trotting, and
tho event went to Al Wells with J. Booth
second. Alderman Billy Boyer had Intended
entering In this race, but backed out at
tho last moment when It was whispered
that Al Wells was provided with a syringe
nnd dope and that Seth May had fixed up
nn electric battery In his cart. Pome of
the Judges gave tho tlmo as 1:22,4, hut the
general opinion was that their watches
had stopped a trifle too soon. Tho crowd
anyhow enjoyed tho race and that was
what It wob for.
In tho hnlf-mlle trotting race John Crow
carried off tho first prize, with William
Allstrnnd second and Jack Plnnell third.
The time wns given as 1:49.

HICKEY SAYS STRIKE IS LOST
Former Vice Trepidant Tell" ny
vlew I.oilue. nn Much nnd
- ' Scornvfllinlttr.
MILWAUKEE, Sept. 1. Charges thnt tho
Amalgamated association has misrepre
sented the attitude of the United States
Steel corporation toward organized labor
In order to get the men out on strlko were
made by former Vlco President Hlckey nt
the meeting nf tho Bayvlcw lodge today.
In n cool, unlrapassioiied manner Mr.
Hlckey gave the members tho result of his
trip to Pittsburg, whoro ho went for the
purpose of Investigating the situation In
regard to tho steel strike nnd the situa
tion ns summed up by Mr. Hlckey was that
the strike nppcars to be lost and It may
take years to repair tho damago to tho as
sociation which has already been done.
Mr. Hlckoy's report was listened to' by
all tho men with respectful attention. Ho
mado no recommendation to tho lodge ns
to Its future action, but It is bellovcd thnt
bis speeches mny cause n change In senti
ment not only In Bayvlew but In other
places In the Fourth district.
Nearly all the members of tho lodge
were present when tho meeting wns cnlled
and a number thnt were reported to be
away working In other plnces turned up In
time to nttend the meeting. Among these
wan Corresponding Secretary Doley, who
had beon working fur Iho Republican Iron
and Steel company In enst Chicago, Presi
dent Joseph Bedford of tho local lodge pre
sided nt the meeting and when It had con
cluded he stated that there had been no
vote tnkon, although no ano had questioned
the accuracy of any of Mr. Hlckey's stato
msntH. That his remarks will bo reported
In full to the general olflces of the associa
tion nnd that It may result In bringing
Associate Secretary Tlghe here ngnln or
soino other representative of the grand
lodge, wns the belief of many of the mem
bers of the organization.
Will A unit (Wllcem' Order.
President Bedford stated that so far It
appeared to be the opinion of the majority
that the men should not return to work
until they had been ordered back by the
national ofllcers. Mr. Hlckey had nothing
to say of the conference In Pittsburg with
President SbafTer and other offlqers. The
conference wns mainly of a personal nature
tn which President Shaffer was charged
with violating tho constitution In ordering
the strike. Many other matter dealing
with tho past history of tho association
also came up for discussion. Mr. Hlckoy's
mission in tho east was mainly to ascer
tain the exact situation of tho strlko nnd
learn every detail of the New York meet
ing. "The object of the meeting," said Presi
dent Rodford, "was not to vote upon tho
question of returning to work, but to listen
to the mport of Messrs. Hlckey and Cop
per, who havo been In tho east to see. what
Is the real situation. Tho strike has now
been on hero for two weoks and during that
time tho members of the lodge here havo
heard absolutely nothing about the renl
situation from the national ofllcers, All
that wo have known we havo seen In tho
newspapers ami last week n number of thj
members had a meeting nnd decldod to senil
Messrs. Copptr and Hlckey back east to
find out these things. Their report was ab
solutely aatlsfactory and was well, received,
but I huve no Idea what tho action of the
lodge will bo or whether thcro will bo any
action taken."
Hlckey Milken ( ensure Thorough.
Mr. Hlckey opened his remarks with a re
view of the conferences of tho representa
tives of the United Stntes Steel corporation
preceding the strlko In which he snld that
Messrs. Morgan and Schwab outlined their
policy toward organized labor. Mr. Hlckey
went Into thesb details for tho purpose of
showing that Secretary Tlghe and President
Shaffer had misrepresented the facts when
they appealed to the members of the as
sociation to strike on the ground that the
steel corporation was determined to crush
organized labor and ruin the Amalgamated
association. He maintained that the prop
osition offered uy Mr. Morgan had beep fair
and should have been accepted right there
by President Shaffer If ho hnd had the In
terests of his fellow workmen at heart Mr.
Hlckey reported that 72 per cent of tho
mills were now working nnd that, In his
opinion, the strike Is practically lost.
"I obtained these facts from a man high
In office In the east," said Mr. Hlckey,"
who was present at the conference, and I
aftcrwnrd confirmed the statements by tho
members of the executive board. Judge
Gary, fotmer president of tho Federal Steel
company, was present at the conference and
he Is now a high official of the United States
Steel corporation. He himself was In favor
of slgn'ng the scale for all the mills In the
combine, but this did not meet with the ap
proval of Mr, Schawb, who thought It too
radical a move." ,
Hent Offer Kver Mode,
Mr. Morgan then offered Shaffer four al
dltlonal mills for which he was wilting to
sign tho scale as an experiment, and tten
he told Mr. Shaffer that If the organization
kept fnlth In these four mills nnd lived up
to the ng'-ecment he would pledge his word
that In two years every mill In the combine
would bo Included In the contract with th'
Amalgamated. This was tho most reason
able proposition which has ever been mado
to the association and It was clearly the
duty of President Shaffer to have ncepttd
It. Then, Instead of doing this, he turned
It down flatly In n speech In which he de
clared that nil must be signed or none. He
apparently wished to Impress steel officials
with tho belief thnt the nssoclatlnn wou d
compel them to sign, whether they wanted
to or not. The corporntlon would not bs
forced In this manner and they broke oT
the conference. Since that time there has
been no conference or offer of a compromlic
and the nenresf. anyone representing the as
sociation has been nble to get to Mr. Mrr
gnn or Mr. Schwab was by long dittance
telephone to their private secretaries "
Mr. Hlckey accused President Shaffer rf
having printed n coiitt'tut on rf the Annlga-
matcd nffsoclatlon in which three important
clauses were eliminated. He raid that
President Shaffer nssumcd nn nttltuile of de
flnncc during the Pittsburg confereneo la t
week nnd had little to say In answer to
questions put to him. The other members
of tho executive board, however, sremcd to
be In nccord with Shaffer's views.

CHICAGO, Sept. 1. Not over fifty men
attended tho meeting tonight called by tho
steel workers of South Chlcngo to explain
to the other labor unions the reason they
refused to obey the orders of President
Shaffer of the Amalgamated association.
Tho Iron Moulders' and HorBcshocrs' unions
wcro tho only outside organizations that
sent representatives to the meeting, al
though nil the labor unions In Chicago had
received Invitations. The meeting lasted
for hours and Presdcnt Shaffer came in for
criticism by a number of tho speakers. Tho
arguments of tho non-unionists centered
nbout their contract with the Illinois com
pany. Its sacrcdncss and ability.
No provision has been made for the South

tho Steel company has arranged a picnic
to take the men away from tho scene of

RIVER P0WERAT KEOKUK
loun I'lnn to IlnmeM MIInkIiI for
Benefit of Mnnuf ncturhiir
l'lnntn.
KEOKUK, Ia Sept. 1. Preparations arc
being made nt Keokuk tn utilize tho enor
mous power of the Mississippi river that Is
now going to waeto. Before reaching Keo
kuk the river flows swiftly through n gorgo
In tho llmeitone that Is twelve
miles long nnd from 120 to 150
feet deep; the current there is so
rapid that river beats are unable to pass
through except at high water. Plans for se
curing 50,000 horsepower at n cost of 13,500,
000 have Just been completed by Lyman U.
Cooley. Citizens of Keokuk believe that th-j
great power will mako their city the equal
of Lowell or Minneapolis as a manufactur
ing center. The work Is In charge of tho
Keokuk & Hamilton Water Power company.
Opposlto the upper end of the government
canal tho water power company Intends to
build a dam, extending nut Into the stream
from tho Illinois side of the river. This
dam will divert 10,006 cubic feet per second
flow of water Into a canal to be constructed
along tho east side of tho gorge. The i nnnl
will be flvo miles locg nnd will conduct tho
water with only 2.0 fect fall to a basin
three-quarters of a mile long nnd one-quarter
nf a mile wide.
At the lower end of this basin will be n
group of power houses, with turbine water
wheels and electric generators; on the vlver
side the plans provide for a bear-trap dam
similar to the one tn use at the lower end
of tho Chicago sanitary canal.
Tho wing dam Is only the first stago of
the projected construction; by extending It
across tho river as a concrete structuro fi,003
fect long and ten feet high the water sur
face can bo raised bo ae to provide 10,003
cubic feet continuous flow through the
powor canal and twenty-seven and a lialt
feet on the wheels.
DAIRY TEST AT PAN-AMERICAN
Ten Herd In Competition with Five
Anlmnla from I'noli Herd Fond
Kept t'lutei Lock and Key,
As many of our readers doubtless know,
nn interesting dairy contest Is under way
at the Pan-American exposition, says the
Rural Now Yorker. Wo have waited until
now before describing It, In order thnt
something llko dcfinlto results might be
glvon. There nro ten herds In competition.
The object of tho test or contest Is "to
demonstrate In n practical wny how cheaply
milk nnd butter can bo produced, under
certain given conditions, with tho vnrlciu
breeds of milch cows." Flvo animals from
each herd were selected. They are nol, pr
haps, the bent cows that could possibly bo
found, but they aro all good working ani
mals nnd quite rcpresentntlve.
A roomy nnd comfortable stable has been
provided. Each herd of cows Is kept to
gcther and all are given the best of care..
It might bo said that tho averngo cow in
the average barn Is not so comfortable; at
these cattle, and that therefore the test Is
not in "average" one. The nnswor Is lhat
these cows nre dally surrounded by strang
ers. Their work Is done In tho midst of
excitement nnd nolso quite unlike tho calm
life of tho cow In some cool and shady pas
ture, It seems to us that this test Is, on
tho whole, the most practical and business
like that wo have had. Each bord Is under
the earn of some person selected by thore
who own or manage tho cattle. These man
agers select the fexl and care which they
consider best for their cows, For exarr.plu,
those who are lesponslbln for tho Holttilns
or Brown Swiss cows may consider that
they can make a better showing with more
roughage and less groin. They havo a right
to feed twice as much hay as tho oiher cows
recolve If they llko, but every pound cf
feed or fodder Is charged to them, and ac
curate accounts are kept with each cow.
The following values per ton have been
placed on what the cows eat: Oil niral,
135; bran, 115: ground oats, 118; cotton
seed meal, 125; cornmeal, 116; gluten food,
116; peameal, 125, clover hay, 17; ellage, 12.
green food, 11,75.
The food Is kept under lock nnd key add
accurately weighed out at each ftedlng,
Each cows receives what her manager thinks

Careful arrangements nre made that
no drugs or medicine ore given any nf the
cows without the content of tho superin
tendent. As each cow Is milked the milk
U ghen to the superintendent, who welg.is
and nampU-8 It. Tho dally samples arc
mixed and tested each week by the llab
cock tester. Tho cream from one day's
milking of each herd Is churned once each
week nnd precautions are taken In testing
nnd sampling to Insure ncouracy. Tho value
of tho dnlry products Is figured nt 25 cents
n pound for butter, allowing S5 per cent of
butter fat to the pound of butter. One ut
tho most Interesting things In lonnectlnu
with the test Is the exhibition of samples
of (butter from the cream of tho different
breeds. No nrtlllclnl coloring matter Is
permitted and It Is evident from tho shoe
ing mndc that tho Guernseys, In particular,
do not need nny.
Prizes are offered as follows:
"A pri.n shall be nwarded for the herd
showing the grcntest net profit, butter fat
alone considered, as determined by the
Dubcock test.
"For the herd showing tho greatest net
profit, butter ulone considered, as deter
mined by thi churn.
"For tho herd showing tho greatest net
profit In total irllils and In loss and giln
of llvo weight."

Thus It will bo seen that tho Oucrnsoys
lend, with Ayrshlres nnd Jerseys close be
hind them. There Is quite a difference In
tho ny theso cows are fed. The aucrn
seys hnve eaten $46.65 worth of grain; lh
Jerseys, J 18.21; the Ayrshlres, I48.G6; the
Holstelns, 154,69 and tho Shorthorns, 56.47.
One would think that the larger cows, llko
Holstelns and Shorthorns, would bo fed
heavily on bay, since It Is a part of the
argument madt, for them that they -ire
masters nt disposing of roughage The fact
Is that botn of thohe largo herds have
eaten less hay than the Guernseys, al
though they have each used about two tons
more of silage. Possibly at the close of
the test it may bo found that the Short
horns and other heavy breeds, while fall
ing behind la butter noductlon, have gained
In flesh and this will be credited to them a'
3 cents per pound live weight.
The next two months will prove tho most
Interesting of the test. Possibly soma of
the breeds now behind will bo better stay
ers nnd pass the present leaders. Wo hopo

opinions of expert dairymen based on tlic.-iu

I'rlilr Had Ita Fill
Tho Smart Set: Once thcro were borne
very swngger peoplo In nn ultra village not
far from tho metropolis who decided that
no society yet hunched together w.ib ex
clusive enough for them. Even the Colonial
Dames failed to meet ths requirements.
So they determined to start a new aggre
gation that should be tho real thing,
After considerable thought they con
cluded thnt If they limited membership to
direct descendants of Fernando de Soto It
would be sufficiently' excluslvo for their
fastidious tastes. "A Society of the Sons
and Daughters of I)e Soto" was the out
come. All tho best people In the village
proved that thoy were eligible and woro
enrolled as charter members,
However, thcro was one man on the ou'or
fringe whoso p'roof of descent was not ac
cepted; In short, he was blackballed. This
made him angry and ho stnrted to Investi
gate tho subject. One day he published
his findings In the local nowspnper. Tho
principal fact was this: "F. Do Soto died
a bachelor."
Tho Sons and Daughtois of De Soto aro
now known as the Kllte Kuchro club.
