EIGHT LET GO ON
GAMING CHARGES
Four Who Played in Old Ice
box Fined.
Perhaps It was chivalry on the part of
Judge Pritchard.
Anyway, when seven men and one wom
an were before him on gaming charge*,
they were discharged. Charles Cullen,
lllSti South Meridian street, was the
alleged keeper of the poker game which
brought the bunch to court.
Judge Pritchard couldn’t find a lot of
excuse for four men playing poker in
an abandoned ice box in the basement of
a poolroom at 1235 Oliver avenue. He
fined them $5 and costs on their pleas
'of guilty. The case of George Pfelster,
alleged keeper of the game, was con
tinued.
Lee Craig and Chester Robinson, mem
bers of the Plasterers' union, were fined
So and costs on gaming charges. Police
officers testified they found a “crars"
game in progress when they raided the
place. Nine other men arrested at the
time of the raid were discharged.
Hunted for One Theft,
Takes Another Purse
Police today are hunting for a purse
snatcher, believed to be a negro, who
stole two purses containing sl4, from
two women last night.
While Sergt. Sandmann and Detectives
Larsh and Stewart were searching for the
purse-snatcher who had stolen a hana
, bag from Mrs. Rayda Coates, 1003 North
-Alabama street, on Alabama near St.
Joseph street, the thief began operations
again at St. Joseph and Scioto streets.
Miss Zella Garrett, 1020 Central avenue,
was the second victim. Her porketbook,
containing $2 and a bnnch of office keys,
was taken. The handbag stolen from
Miss Coates contained sl2 in cash and a
ruby ring.

HONOR’S PEACE
HIS SOLE PLAN,
SAYS CAILLAUX
Accused Former French Pre
mier Admits Meeting
Italian Pacifists.
DENIES ANY TREASON
PARIS, Feb. 25. —Former Premier
Joseph Caillaux, on trial charged
with having treasonable dealings with
the enemy during the war, denied today
that he had plotted a premature and dis
honorable peace with the Italian pacifists
during a to Italy.
The accused statesman was questioned
nt length by Leon Bourgeois, president of
the high court of justice, regarding his
Italian sojourn. These interrogations
brought out important admissions from
M. Caillaux regarding his “pacifist policy"
which brought him into disrepute in the
closing days of the war.*
SOUGHT ONLY
HONORABLE PEACE.
* M. Caillaux readily admitted he had
conversations with members of the paci
fist element in Italian government circles,
but insisted these conversations had for
their object, “not peace at any price, but
an honorable peace.”
“Were you not aware that such dec
larations. in view of the perilous situa
ation in the Italian armies, were likely
to be disastrous to the entente?" asked
President Bourgeois.
“I desired to sound the Italians on
their disposition towards peace,” M.
Caillaux explained. “Knowing the peril
ous situation I desired to end the useless
bloodshed.”
A number of documents secured by the
French government from the vault of a
Florence bank are to be introduced in
the trial by the prosecution.
WIFE SHjOWS
GREAT INTEREST.
Mme. Caillaux was a particularly in
terested observer of the proceedings, as
she is accused of acting as intermediary
between her husband and the Italian
pacifists. She leaned forward and lis
tened attentively while her husband was
being questioned about the contents of
the safe deposit box at Florence which
had been rented in her name. The de
fendant explained this by saying the re
ceptacle was only for his wife’s nse and
was not to be used for propaganda docu
ments.
In spite of the strain of the trial and

Worthington Sees New Econo
my With Return of Lines.
A \veedlng out process, which will
promote efficiency and at the same time
mean economy, is predicted by B. A.
Worthington, president of the Cincin
nati, Indianapolis & Western railway,
when the railroads are restored to pri
vate ownership.
Before leaving for New York today
for a general conference of railroad
presidents. Mr. Worthington made it
known that a general retrenchment
policy is likely to mark the turmug
back of the lines to the owners.
He said there has been a certain
laxJty which has resulted in a letup in
efficiency. Many of these subjects will
be gone into at the New York confer
ence.
BETTER SERVICE
TO BE KEYNOTE.
“Under private ownership,” said Mr.
Worthington, “I feel certain that the pub
lic will see a marked improvement in the
condition of things. That improvement
naturally can not be apparent ail at
once, and people should not expect it.
But things will gradually improve. T

Give ’em a quart apiece
and watch ’em grow
Give each child a quart of milk a
day. Food experts recommend this
as a minimum. Encourage them to
drink it. It takes the place of more costly
foods. Put it on cereals. Make it into pud
dings. Pour it on toast, mix it into custards,
stir it into soup. Use milk freely. It is the
cheapest of all good foods.
A bottle of-milk in the kitchen will help
a great deal in preparing meals.
Cook cereals in milk instead of water. A
creamy healthful dish is the result.
Milk helps make attractive dishes from
canned or fresh vegetables. Milk combined
with vegetables makes excellent soups,
creamed and scalloped dishes, souffles and
croquettes. Use milk in all gravies—it adds
• flavor.
For children’s breakfasts nothing is more pala
table, more easily prepared, more welcomed than
creamed toast.
Healthful, nutritious desserts for children have
milk for their foundation. Cornstarch, bread, tapi
oca and junket puddings contaiu much milk.
A liberal use of milk not only produces growth and vigor
'but helps to keep children well, by making them better able to

have already formulated a program for
the C., I. & W., looking toward better
conditions, and I have no doqbt others
have done the same.
“It Is a fact that under the conditions
which have prevailed for the last two
years there was a letup In efficiency
manifest in many directions. Many em
ployes were inclined to take their Jobs
less seriously than they had done be
fore, and as things stood under gov
ernment control we were unable to hold
them to the strict observance of rules
and conduct that we shall require after
March 1.
“In the matter of pay it Is well known
that many very material advances were
made under government control. In
creases of more than 200 per cent were
put into force in some instances. And
while we are not permitted to reclassify
salary schedules until Sept. 1, 1920, yet
it is possible for us to cut down ex
penditures by dispensing with such em
ployes as are not absolutely essential.
6ur road will pursue a retrenchment pol
icy along those lines and I do not doubt
that other systems will do likewise. This
will be among the subjects discussed at
the conference in New York Friday.”
NOT READY TO
TALK ON RATES.
In the matter of future rates Mr.
Worthington pointed to the fact that the
chief source of revenue for the roads is
the transportation of freight and he de
clared that if it were necessary to depend
upon passenger traffic they would all go
into bankruptcy. What, if any, changes
would be made In rates was, he said,
purely a matter of speculation now and
one for future decision.
“There will probably be no immediate
change in passenger rates,” he added.
“Asa matter of fact, the roads always
lost In the carrying of passengers when
the rate was 2 cents a mile and they have
consistently lost also under the 3-cent
rate. However, there is little likelihood
of any increase in that, for the present
at least. And in freight rates even a pos
sible 25 per cent increase would not be
gin to meet the immense Increase In our
overhead expenses.”
