He had always thought that when he wa discharged from the army he waa square and bad no Idea the govern ment wa "holding" out on him. He ha now taken It for granted that the tlt.U re ceived from the national treasury 1 ail right and that It wa Justly earned and he will therefore keep It.

Aug. 13-The only development, In the Canadian Pacific dock strike were the vigorous step taken by the military under Colonel Steele In dls arming striker. The presence of bayonet and the sight of men loading rifle with ball cartridges cowed the leaders. The mob I threatenln and more trouble I feared when IS strike breaker start work. Those who resisted being- disarmed were Jailed. The 800 soldier patrolling the street In the dock district tonight are keeping close watch to prevent any outbreak, as It Is known that hundreds of weapon are hid away by the foreigner on strike. General Manager Bury of the Canadian Paclflo said: "We don't anticipate any fur ther interruption of traffic with troops here. We are ready to rest on arbitration. These men quit work without notice and without any effort to confer with the com pany. We attrlbue this to the Greek ele ment, of which there are some 200 among the dock strikers. We had 1,000 men all together, the rest being Hungarians and Italians. The Greeks told them Monday that they must quit work or they would shoot them,' adding that they were going to hold the company up. They did not make any demand and have not done so yet. We are paying day laborers 18H cents an hour and 21 cents for night work. It was from this good pay that they struck. I cannot say what we will do, except that we don't propose to have traffic further Interrupted, as we can bring In all the men we need." Under the escort of soldiers the first strike-breakers arrived today. They were 100 French Canadians, a sturdy lot, well equipped for muscular work around the dock or for fight, If necessary. This evening Colonel Blllman at Winni peg received word from the minister of militia at Ottawa to hold the Nineteenth regiment and machine guns In readiness to come.

Two tralnload of strike breaker were placed In the Pressed Steel Car company's plant today before the striking employe of that company were aware of the coup.

Eight long months afterwards he wa exchanged and sent home on a furlough. Naturally, the unfortunate In (hat southern prison paid little attention to af fairs, and when Mr. Templeton finally got out he was so pleased to be at liberty again that he never once thought about his pay or figured up the time since latt pay day, to be sure he got all that waa coming to him. Now after forty-five year the government ha found that there was still due the soldier one month's pay, SIS; a shortage of tl when he waa discharged; and a shortage In clothing allowance of 37 cent; total $14.43.

BRICKS SEEDED IN OMAHA Famine Threatened as Result of Last Council's Action. IT SHUT OFF MORE YARDS John Latenser Fears This Scarcity of Supplies Mar Cripple Build lnT Operation Before the Season i Over. Omaha I now face to face with a brick famine. Shortage In the brick supply has al ready been felt by local contractors and John Latenser, architect for a number of the larger business ' building now being ' erected, I authority for the statement that contractor will do well If they get through the year without having to cut down their force, to say nothing about stopping work altogether for a time. . The shortage In material I largely due to the legislation of the old democratic council, which prohibited the location of more brick yards In Omaha and those now in the city are utterly unable to furnish all the brick needed in Omaha this year. Sioux City brick yards have been "milked dry" and nearly all the brick from the natural gas belt in Kansas has been con tracted for. Freight rates prohibit buying brick at points farther removed from Omaha. Caldwell A Drake, the contractors for the new court house, are In about the best shape of any of the contractors, accord ing to Mr. Latenser, a they have enough material to keep going for sometime. They bought about half their brick In Sioux City, Intending to buy the rest In Omaha. The Thompson A Starrett company, con tractor for the Brandel theater and of fice building, hoped to secure all the brick they needed In Omaha, but, with the local yards working night and day, a full sup ply of material Is away short. Sioux City brick waa bought exclusively for the large addition being built to the academy of the Sacred Heart, while Kansas gas belt brick wa bought for the block long addition to the St. Joseph hospital. No More at Slonx City. "Sioux City haa no more brick to sell, I understand," said Mr. Latenser, "and the giving out of the supply of natural gas In Kansaa haa practically stopped the manu facture there. Local yards are utterly un able to meet the great demand made this year by building contractors, and with so many buildings of all kinds, from small brick flat and store buildings to sky scraper office buildings, we will do well if we get through the year. "The railroads are doing extremely wrell by Omaha this year and delivery ha not been a prompt In five year." E. T. Petersen, chief clerk of the city engineering department, said that the rush of building material to Omaha ha thrown hi department behind some, a it has had great difficulty In getting through cars of asphalt and cement The street repair crew was tied up for several days until Thursday, when one car of asphalt got through and two crews were put to work again on the streets. Failure to get heavy rails for the street car company for several streets has de layed repavlng In some localities, notably Cuming street, where paving brick has een piled on the sidewalk for month while watting for the company to lay new rails.

PROTEST FROM COLONEL LYON Teaan Object to Classing His State with Solid Sonth Charles A, Over lock Appointed I'nlted State Marshal In Arlsonn. BEVERLY, Mass., Aug. 13. At an ex tended conference tonlpht with Secretary Nagel of the Department of Commerce and Labor, Postmantrr General Hitchcock and I Dana Durand. director of the census. FreMdent Taft approved the appointment of S30 supervisors of the thirteenth census. The list hnd been prepared at Washington for the president and the qualifications of every man Inquired Into. There were somi vacant districts In Kentucky, however. when the cabinet officers and the director of the census arrived In Beverly today and these were put up to the president for settlement. There has been marked discontent anmn? some southern republicans over the decision nf the president to divide the census patron ago in the states of the "solid south." Colonel Cecil Lyon, republican national committeeman, came all the way from Texas to tell the president that he would rather have the state put In charge of one supervisor a good republican, of course than to have to divide the congressional districts with the democrats. Oklahoma, he declared, had been Included with Ten nessee, Kentucky, North Carolina and Mis court In the list of nearly doubtful states that had been set apart from the other southern states for a full list of republican' surveyors. "If Oklahoma Is a northern states." de clared Colonel Lyon today, "I am In favor of moving the Mason and Dixon line still further south to le' Texas In. "When It Is considered that each census supervisor will have a tremendous field force of enumerators under him, the ex tent of the census patronage may be readily realized. Each of the supervisors will receive a salary of 12,000 and their work will extend over eight or ten months. The enumerators will not have so long a service. The states where the supervisor are divided equally between the democrats and republicans sre Virginia, South Caro lina, Georgia, Florida, Alabama, Missis sippi, Arkansas, Louisiana and Texas. Work Ilea-lna In October. Director Durand said today that he hoped to have the supervisors actively at work by the middle of October. He said that today many of the supervisors appointed by the president have received the en dorsement of business organizations In the communities In which they live and have been selected more for their capabilities as officials than for any active part they have played In politic. In fact. President Taft, It Is said, laid down the rules, es pecially In states where a division has been made between democrats and repub licans, that supervisors Khali not be active partisans and that no attempt should be made to build up political machines out of the census patronage. Director Durand haa personally Inquired Into the standing of every candidate recommended for of fice and has prepared a little biographical sketch of each supervisor named by the president to show exactly what the man has done to destrve his place In the pub lic service. Messrs. Nagel, Hitchcock and Durand were to have seen the president this after noon, but In motoring to Beverly from Bos ton they got lost on the wrong road, were delayed at the Boston ferry terminals and did not arrive at the summer capital until after the president and Mrs. Taft had gone out for their late afternoon automobile ride. The conference at the Taft cottage did not begin until nearly 9 o'clock tonight and continued until a late hour. Golf Hoodoo Disappear.

Tomorrow the president will play at Essx against his brother, Charles P. Taft of Cin cinnati, who, with hi wife, will arrive on the North Shore tomorrow morning to spend a week with the Boardman at Maiuhester-by-the-sea.

Secretary Nagel will return tomorrow to Marlon, Mass., where he is spending the summer. Mr. Durand will stop over Sun day at Rock Point. Mats, returning to Washington early next week to continue work on plans for taking the census. Colonel Lyon dots not think President Taft is going to see enough of Texas, ac cording to the present Itinerary, which takes him to El I'aso, San Antonio, Corpus Chrlstl. Houston and Dallas. Furthermore, the president's trip as planned carries him through three' congreiinlonal district where cattle raising Is the chief Industry and free hides are not popular, and through two districts devoted to lumber, which was reduced to tl ?5 on the tariff list.
