would be constitutional and that federal
license shall not be available as an
alternative."
The judges were five members of the
faculty Prof. B. B. Conaut .(law), Prof.
J. E. LeRossegnol (political economy and
commerce), Prof. Edwin Maxey (public

INDIANAPOLIS. Oct. 5.-Herbert S.
Hockin, said by Ortie E. McManigal to
have been one of the organisers of the
"dynamiting crew," has given Informa
tion against the other defendants in the
trial of the accused "dynamite plotters,''
according to a statement byDlstrlct At
torney Charles Miller, made in court to
day. Aocording to McManigal. Hockin, who
is acting secretary-treasurer of the In
ternational Association of Bridge and
Structural Ironworkers, was as bold a
were the McNamaras In causing explo
sions against employers of nonunion
labor and was an "Inventor" of the alarm
clock scheme by which the Los Angeles
Times building was blown- up.
Hockin was in the court room with the
other defendants today. He had just
been severely arraigned by Mr. Miller, as
a prime mover in the dynamite plots.
"Hockin has been double-crossing
everybody," said Mr. Miller. "He not
only double-crossed McManigal, but he
even double-crossed the union. He has
been double-crossing It and double-crossing
these defendants ever since.
"I will not stop now to tell you just
how he personally delivered evidence !
here at. the federal building, this evi
dence intending to Incriminate other de
fendants. I will tell you about it later."
THE PIE 0FTHE FATHERS
Landed as a Dream, a Symphony, an
, Inspiration, bnt the. Fathers
, Are Dead. .
It Is a decided relief to turn one's
back upon the heated discussion growing
out of the question, "Is the lobster an
animal or a vegetable?" and to give one's
undivided and tranquil attention to con
sideration of the American pie In Its re
lation to patriotism. Many attempts
have been made by deep and conscien
tious thinkers to discover wherein and
whwefor the present generation falls to
rise to the level of some that have pre
ceded, it, ' but they have mostly proved
futile, because as It is now believed In
some quarters, they have started out in
variably on wrong- premises. Quite re
cently, . however,, one has arisen who
seems .to have planted his., feet on more
solid ground. He says that this day and
generation are deficient In many impor
tant respects ' because they are lacking
in the pie of the fathers. The pie of
other days, he would have us believe,
was not merely the. product of a back
grate oven or hay-cooker; it .was at once
a summer dream in crust-shortening, a
sonnet In filling, a symphony In flavor,
an Inspiration to the attainment of noble
ends.. . How true this is 1
When the pie their great grandmothers
used to make was in its halcyon period,
American men went into the world full
of the- fire of ambition for1 the accom
plishment of things worthy of remem
brance. They went out into the wilder
ness, hewed ' the . tall pine and the mas
sive oak, made clearings, subdued na
ture, extended the outposts of civlllsa-tion-put
up with all manner of hard
ship, endured all manner of exposure,
and were supported through it all by the
knowledge that upon their return to the
old homestead they would find the cup
board shelves literally carpeted with
mince, rhubarb, custard, huckleberry,
gooseberry, squash, peach, blackberry,
pumpkin or apple pies, each anywhere
from an inch and a quarter to an inch
and a half thick, all ( combining to create
an odor .more entrancing than any ever
carried on the zephyrs of Cashmere, and
the entire display,, from the scalloped
paper borders in front, to the range of
delft dishes In the background, consti
tuted a liberal education In everything
that makes for the higher accomplish
ment.' - '
There seems to be something in the
theory that, the fathers, after spending
a few. days around the house and con
suming all.tbe pie,', could not be content
with - anything less . than great achieve
ment. If accepted, and it, ought to be,
it will account for the. marvelous strides
made In the latter part of the eighteenth
and the early part of the-nineteenth, cen
turies. , It - will explain deeds, of. heroism,
acts of devotion to the commonwealth,
triumphs of the . uplifting thought that
are toa infrequent in these, days of evap
orated, filling and . machine-made crust
The .pie of the fathers, doubtless, was
alluring; perhaps It i sometimes was too
much so; mayhap, it now and then
tempted one from the 'thorny path of
duty; but on the whole it must have been
a spur to effort, to genius and to cour
age. . -How ' much it had to do with, the
Creation of .democratic thought, with the
conception , of the declaration of inde
pendence, with the framing of the con
stitution, with the laying of the corner
stones of the American republic, it' is
Impossible to say with, any- degree of
definitenesa. All that Is known positively
is that the fathers were all pie eaters
and that, .for the most part, . they loved
their country and led . exemplary lives.

Is close to capacity. Actlvltf ! well dis

highest point In two years and premiums
are offered for prompt delivery of small
lots. A further sharp advance is noted
In pig iron and Bessemer rules at $16.75
to J17, valley. Merchant furnaces ar re
ducing stocks and there Is a strong de
mand for the last quarter of this year and
the first quarter of 1913. Output of pig
Iror. last month was at a. higher daily
rate than in August, although the total
production was smaller because there was
one less day in September. The scarcity
of tin sheet is becoming more pronounced

a result. . " '

Fall River have run ahead of the output
and many southern mills have sold their
production up to the end of the year,
gales of 1,500 bales of drills to India and
some small lots of sheetings to China
and Red sea ports are reported. A fair
volume of spring business on high-grade
silk piece goods is reported. Worsted
yarns have been bought liberally and,
while cotton yarns are steady, sales are
moderate.
Business in footwear continues to Im

encouraged regarding the outlook for

BHADSTREET'S " TRADE REVIEW
Reports More Uniformly Favorable
Than Any Time This Yea-
NEW YORK, Oct S.-Bradstreetla to
day says: j ' '
Trade reports are more uniformly
favorable than at any previous time thir
year. From many points In the west re
ports are that trade Is excellent, while
southern reports as a' whole are more
optimistic with Texas and lower Missis
sippi valley points sending the most
satisfactory advices. Jobbing distribution
is still relatively the most active branch
of trade and Immediate fall demand Is
largely responsible for the volume of
sales and shipments reported.
in tne iron and steel lines, a sellers'
market prevails, the mills are ' well sup
plied with orders and the outlook favors
full operations up to next spring. Under
such circumstances the mills are not
Inclined to do much on next year's ac
count. Buying of copper is of a steady
character, domestic consumption being
the. chief factor.
Dry goods, clothing, sno'es, hardware
and groceries make up a large part of
the volume of trade now doing. Jewelry
Is active, but Some textile manufacturers
find labor troubles and new laws a bar
to full production. . -
