plant they found the door to tha gen
erating house locked and barred with
heavy beams. They could only take
charge aim shut down the machine
Bhop, while the generation of power

J. B. Howe of Seattle, chief counsel
for the Stone and Webster interests

to accept. Howe declared he would
sue for damages if Meath shut down
the plant, which would tie up the Ta
coma and Seattle street railway lines
and the interurban lines between the
two cities. In answer Meath, receiv
ing word from the men that they had
reached the plant, directed them to
shut It down. This they were unable
to do.
ILLINOIS MAN CONTRASTS
GROWTH OF LOS ANGELES
Ottawa Postmaster Tells of First
Electric Cars
The phenomenal growth of Los An
geles was strongly brought out yester
day in contrast with an old eastern
town by W. K. Bowman, who has come
from his old home in Illinois to pass
the remainder of his time in sunny
California. Mr. Bowmun is now 76
years old. He has been active in
political life and was instrumental in
building the nrst electric line in
Illinois.
"The announcement of the population
of Los Angeles," he said, "brought to
my mind the '80's, when I was post
master at Ottawa, 111. At that time
Los Angeles and Ottawa were in the
same class as to population. Today
Los Angeles boasts of more than 319,000
and my old home town has 15,000.
"All tins," he continued, "brings
back the days of JSSB, when the sug
gestion of building an electric line in
Ottawa -,vas first made. This was the
first In the state of Illinois and was
met with much objection.
"When the matter was first brought
to me by T. J. Evans t)f Council Bluffs,
lowa, 1 said that I wanted nothing to
do with it, that the trolley had been
tried in Kansas City and had met with
failure. J finally became Interested,
though. Then trouble was experienced
in getting the county supervisors to
permit the running of the cars along
any county property. Lastly, the peo
ple had to be educated to ride on the
cars.
"Old Ottawa still lias its trolley lino,
but I have come to spend the rest of
my days in Los Angeles, which has
the greatest interurban system in the
world."

13-CENT STAMP EXHAUSTED,
NO MORE TO BE ISSUED
Increase of Registration Fee Rel
egates Unlucky Postage
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.—The day of
"13" as a postage stamp denomination
Is fast waning- and soon It will be
known only to philatelists. Every
postmaster in tho United States is be
ing notified today that the supply of
13-cent stamps at the postofflco depart
ment has been exhausted. Those al
ready issued will continue to be valid
for postage and thoso on hand at post
offices will be sold until exhausted,
which will make the passing of tho
stamp complete.
The 13-cent stamp was first author
ized ns a convenience to the public, be
ing a combination of the registry fee
of eight cents and tho foreign postage
of five cents. With tho raising of the
registry fee to 10 cents, the old com
bination figure was rendered useless,
and the postmaster general ordered the
discontinuance of the manufacture of
tho stamps a year ago.
PARLIAMENT MEETS BUT
ASQUITH DELAYS CRISIS
Premier Absent from Proceed
ings—Cabinet Agrees Re
garding Lords' Veto
LONDON, Nov. ' 15.—Parliament re
assembled today, but in the absence of
Premier Asquith the proceedings
lacked the acute interest expected and
the political crisis is delayed until Fri
day.
By that time the premier again will
have seen King George and laid before
his majesty the decision reached by
the cabinet at today's session, which
was unusually prolonged.
The fact that tl'.e ministers were In
conference for two and a half hours
was taken to indicate that two or three
of them were favorable to the plan of
asking the- lords to accept or reject the
veto resolutions before the dissolution
of parliament. These members are
said to have made n hard light in sup
port of their view 9.
An adjournment until Friday was
taken at the request of Chancellor
Uloyd-Genrge, who eaid that "circum
stances had arisen which, in the Judg
ment of the government, rendered It
undesirable to proceed with the busi
ness set down for today."
He added that the premier, Mr. As
quith, would be in n position on Friday
to mako a statement of the govern
ment's plans.
LORDS MAY FORCE ISSUE
The house was crowded to its ca
pacity and a nervous tension was no
ticeable during the preliminaries.
These over, tho chancellor at once
sought and secured a postponement of
the inevitable crisis.
When the house of lords assembled
today Lord Lansdowne, the leader of
tlys opposition, played a card which
possibly may be the prelude to a high
ly interesting development in the po
litical game now under full headway.
He would tomorrow, he said, move
"that tills house invite his majesty's
government to submit to its considera
tion the terms of the parliament bill."
This is the official designation of the
veto bill, which is the center of all the
trouble.
This new move is regarded as cal
culated to embarrass the government,
as it is difficult to see how the radicals
can consistently persist in their cam
paign against the lords In the face of
an offer to consider the government's
proposal.
The Globp this evening gives cur
rency to a report that Premier Asquith
is considering the resignation of the
cabinet. r

FORCE MEN INTO
ARMY, SAYS ROGERS
Son of Late Standard Oil Mag
nate Advocates Compulsory
Service in U. S.
WAR WITH JAPAN PREDICTED
New Yorker Says Europe Expects
Struggle and America Would
Be Beaten
(Associated Press)
NEW YORK, Nov. IB.—H. H. Rogers,
son of the late Standard Oil financier,
whose hobby la the study of military
affairs, has just returned to New York
from a long trip of observation In the
army centers of France and Germany.
He brought home with him the un
pleasant prediction that Japan will
provoke a war with the United States
before the I'anama canal is opened for
business. This la not only the belief
of Mr. Rogers, but the consensus of
opinion, he says, of military men
whom he met during his visit of seven
n*onths abroad. He advocates compul
sory service in the army of three years
for young men. •
Mr. Rogers is a captain in the Twen
ty-second regiment of the New York
National Guard. While abroad he
talked with officers of the lowest ranks
to the highest and found them all of
the belief that the United States would
be dragged into a war with Japan and
that the United States would be badly
beaten In the fight.
Summing up what he had gleaned
abroad, Mr. Rogers says:
"They have a high regard In Europe
for the strength and the clever fight
ing ability of our navy, and so have
the Japanese, but they look on our
army as a Joke. The foreign military
men say it Is too small to be of any
use. Japan is not anxious to get into
| a war with us Just now, while a gTeat
I war debt is hanging over her, but she
i is making a desperate effort to pay it
I off quickly and will make loans again
I to carry her through a fight with us.
WANTS CONTHOL OF PACIFIC
"The control of the Pacific is between
her and the United States and she
means to get it. Notwithstanding all
this recent peace talk in Japan, that
nation Is going to strike and strike
before the Panama canal is opened.
"The United States has a good in
fantry, but it is not prepared for war.
It Is my ambition to see this country
so prepared. In the first place we have
not enough trained men to put in the
field. We have not nearly enough mo
bilizing stations.
"There is no question but that the
Japanese could land 200,000 trained
fighting men on the Paciiic coast be
fore we could, and unless we under
take to establish a good big standing
army quickly we will be beaten in an
engagement with the Japane.se.
"Another important shortcoming that
must not be overlooked is the fact that
we are using war tactics 200 years
old."
CHURCHMEN BAR BIBLE;
NONCHURCHMEN FAVOR IT
Presbyterian Clergymen Ask Illi
nois Court to Reconsider
CHICAGO, Nov. 15.—That the de
cision of the Illinois supreme court
barring the Bible from the public
schools was written by justices who

opinion favoring Bibles in the schools

churchmen was a statement made
yesterday at the regular meeting of
the Presbyterian clergymen of Chi-
I cago.
The meeting adopted a committee
I report on the subject, requesting the

3 MEXICANS TO BE TRIED
FOR OBSTRUCTING MAILS
LAKEVIEW, Ore., Nov. 15.—Three
J Mexicans are on their way from this
j city to Portland in custody of United
I States Marshal Hammersley, charged
with obstructing the United States
mail.
The three Mexicans met the stage
coach between this city and Alturas,
Cal., it is said, and stopping the ve
hicle, they compelled the driver to dis
mount and then they took the reins
I and drove off.
They did not disturb anything in the
coach and so the charge ugalnst them
I is obstructing the mail instead of a
j more serious one. They will be tried
| in the federal court in Portland.

STATEMENT OF BANKS
AWAITED WITH INTEREST
Officials Desire to See Effect of
Cotton Season on Southern
Institutions
WASHINGTON, Nov. 15.—Following
the recent call for a national bank
statement, great interest attaches to
the condition of the southern banks
after the season's operations In cot
ton and also in the extent which the
banks of the west have reduced their
loans.
It eeems generally known among
bank officials that a great deal of
money belonging to the Interior banks
placed on call in Wall street probably
will be withdrawn before the end of
the year and the best advices today
were that Wall street borrowers, an
ticipating such withdrawals already
have begun arranging for loans from
abroad.
Reports from the west and the north
west are that local money stringencies
appear to be, oaused by speculation and
farmers holding crops for higher prices.
In many cases banks have been re
ported carrying such situations at high
interest.
The Information available December
1 will show what the conditions of the
banks was November 10, and in the
exigencies of a crop moving season,
there is plenty of room for change be
fore the next call Is made.
It is freely predicted a great por
tion of the millions held in the large
banks of the central reserve cities will
find its way back to the country
banks.

INTERNATIONAL FAMILY
EXCHANGE IS PROPOSED
Columbia Professor Advocates
European and American In
terchange of Children
NEW YORK, N«v. 15.—A new sug
gestion for the advancement of inter
national comity cornea from Prof.
Krnest Richard of Columbia university.
He has presented to the peace so
ciety the Idea of an Interchange of
members of American and European
families In the interest of mutual un
derstanding and education.
"The Idea Is," says Prof. Richard,
"that Mrs. John Johnson of New York
sends her son, Alfred, to Berlin to
live free of charge In the family of
Mra. Katrina Schmidt and Mrs. Kat
rina Schmidt Bends her eon, Adoiph,
to live free of charge with Mra. John
Johnson. Alfred learns all about
Schopenhauer or forestry, as the case
may be, and Adoiph learns all about
how subways should be run.
"There is little chance that either
can be ill treated In the opposite fam
ily, because all he would have to do
wherever he was would be to write to
mother and tell her to take it out of
Adoiph or Alfred, as the case may
be. Incidentally, the languages would
be learned of necessity and the fam
ilies could not help getting something
from their visitors.
"The idea has been tried out suc
cessfully In Europe and I know of
more than 200 cases where families ex
change sons or daughters in Germany,
France and England."
Professor Richard Is the chairman
of the peace committee of the National
German-American alliance and he
hopes to persuade the committee to
start Bomo sort of a bureau to serve
as the medium between families de
siring to effect changes.

A POPULAR MINING MAN
CURED OF DRINK HABIT
IN THREE DAYS TIME BY
NEAL SsSff CURE
A Familiar Story of Distress with a Happy
Sequel of Salvation Through the
Neal Treatment
Ten years ago there was no more
prominent or successful miner in the
southwest than the man of whom this
is written—a man whose name was
once written large in Los Angeles' com-
mercial history.
Drink put him on the way to the
rear. Like many others, he sought to
drown sorrow. Even the "Iron Will
characteristic of his Scotch ancestry
did not avail him at the critical time
in his life, when he was suddenly and
sternly brought to a realization of the
fact that she who would soon have
been the sharer of his Joys and sor
rows had passed away.
From the occasional drinker he soon
became the daily, then the almost
hourly drinker—the man who drinks to
keep from being more nervous—and as
the months and years sped on, the
habit Increased day by day and soon
position, Influence, property, ability to
act Intelligently—everything lost and
taken from him and he "down and
out."
Of the brainy men who have
been his admirers and associates —
pleased to be guided and influenced by
his words and acts—there was one real
friend, a former business associate, a
practical Christian man, who Is known
tn many in this city for his modest,
quiet and effective work for the uplift
of humanity. Through another friend
his attention was called to the Neal
Three Day Drink Habit Cure, which Is
a perfectly harmless and purely veg
etable medicine, taken Internally with
out hypodermic Injections, indorsed
and administered by and at the
Neal Institute, 945 South Olive street.
This Christian man said: "Take my
old friend down there and tell them to
send the bill to me."
This was done, and this former bril
liant man was soon placed in a com
fortably furnished private room In this
homelike place, where all his meals

were served and medicine administered
in the strictest privacy—Just the same
as though he was a millionaire. He
found himself with a skilled attendant
and under the supervision of Dr. Carl
ton. On the evoninfr of the third day
this patient wrote and mailed a letter
to his benefactor, and from it this quo
tation is taken:
"Dear Mr. : I can truthfully
say to you that I have been cured of
that terrible curse—drink. The cure
they give one is marvelous, and I am
absolutely positive I am cured for life,
and such a blessing it is after the years
I have lost through drink. I feel like)
a new man. Again thanking you for
your very great kindness to me and,
now that I am myself again, I hope to
prove to you, by God's help, that I am
worthy of your trust In me."
Names of patients are never pub
lished but by special permission of the
parties. Copy of this letter, with names
and addresses of all parties referred to,
may be seen at the Neal Institute, and
they all will be pleased to talk with or
write to anyone who is in good faith
interested. The best and most con
vincing evidence, however, is found in
the fact that you can find out that the
Neal company, with a paid-up capital
of $1,000,000, owned and backed by a
wealthy banker and prominent man
liks Senator J. E. Bruce and the other
prominent business men and doctors
associated with him, is just as good as
any bank in carrying out its agree
ments. The Neal Institute gives a
bond to each and every patient to re
fund every dollar paid unless the treat
ment and cure is entirely satisfactory
to all interested at the end of only
three days' treatment.
