GARY MS RICH STEEL HEAD SAYS CAPITALISTS MUST MEND THEIR WAYS OR SUFFER REULTft. FRENCH REVOLT RECALLED SAYS TRUST IS CRUELTY "OFF AGAIN! ON AGAIN! FINNEGAN!" •Yellow Press," Together With Dem­ agogues, Blamed for Much of Un­ rest Prevalent Throughout World-- Asks for Square Deal for Workers. New York.--At the annual dinner of the New York Lehigh club, given In honor of Charles M. Schwab at the Hotel Astor, Elbert H. Gary, chairman of the United States Steel corpora­ tion, made a remarkable speech. He said that unless capitalists--rlcb men, powerful men--take a lead In trying to Improve the condition of mankind great changes will come and they will come mighty quick, and the mob will bring them. "There is throughout the world lust now a feeling of unrest," said Mr. Gary That feeling pervades all countries whatsover without any ex­ ception. "There are two reasons for it, in my opinion. It is the result. In the first place, of the great recent Improve­ ment In the means of communication throughout the world. "Those means of communication are now so perfect that all Important things which are said and done at any one place In the world are im­ mediately known everywhere In the world and reflect a universal influ­ ence 'The second reason Is because the demagogue has for personal reasons-- whether he be a so-called statesman whom I would call an ordinary poli­ tician, or whether he be a newspaper owner desirous of increasing his cir­ culation at any cost to get more ad­ vertising and make money like the rest of us--that man, whoever he la, Is disposed Just now to appeal to the passions and the prejudices of what/ he sees fit to consider the masses. "He does that strictly to advance his particular Interest. It is now fash­ ionable to appeal to the so-called working people, sometimes called the poorer people, in order to excite them to a bitter antagonism against those classes variously called capitalists, ed­ ucated ones, or corporations. "Now, this prevailing sentiment and this prevailing attitude 1B growing. It Is the most Important subject up for the consideration of the people of this country- "I tell you, gentlemen, that there are things being said nowadays which are very similar Indeed to things said Just before the French revolution. "I tell you that the spark may yet make a flame, and that soon. "I have an especial reason for say­ ing this, a reason which afreets you and me. "We of great power and Influence in the affairs of the country have not all of us done the fslr thing. "It is Imperative that something be done to improve the condition of man­ kind. Cannot we ourselves do some­ thing to improve that condition? "Unless capitalists, corporations, rich men, powerful men themselves take a leading part in trying to im­ prove the conditions of humanity great changes will come and they will come mighty quickly, and the mob will bring them. "I appeal to you that in your deal­ ings with men under you, you take great care to be sure that you are do­ ing the square thing by them. If you and I. if all of us do our duty now we will win and show the worthiness of the steel Industry and establish per­ manently its integrity, its good name." MAINE IS AGAIN FLOATED Historic Battleship in Havana Harbor Still Lists to Port, But No Big Leaks Discovered. Havana.--The wreck of the Maine floated free of the mud when water was turned into the dam surrounding the wreck. Water was forced into the dam through a system of pipes fixed at the bottom of the ship, the power being supplied by a pump which had been recovered from the wreck. The ship began to rise almost Im­ mediately. The midship section, which had been furnished with a bulkhead, rose more rapidly on ac­ count of superior buoyancy than the heavily weighted, sharp pointed stern, so that the Maine Is somewhat down by the stern. The hull still lists to port, which is being corrected by the use of ballast. No leaks of any im­ portance have been discovered. As the water slowly rose until It covered the whole floor of the coffer­ dam, nearly twenty feet of mooring lines were run out fore and aft on both sides to bold the ship fast and prevent the possibility of its being blown against the sides of the dam. Major Ferguson, who has had charge of the work, has received many congratulations on his success. air. A rich man in Pennsylvania, and a member of the bar at that, has had to pay a $20 fine and $80 costs be­ cause he tried to beat Uncle Sam out of a cent by sending through the mall a check folded in a newspaper.

As Chihuahua borders on Texaa, fta separation from Mexico would be a matter of deep concern to the United States. So complete are the military prep­ arations that It Is said nothing re­ mains to be done but to send one mes­ sage to every department army head­ quarters In the country to Insure the prompt assemblage of a sufficient number of troops on the Mexican border to prepare the United States for any emergency that might arise there.

CHURCHILL IS JEERED INQUIRY INTO ELECTION OF ILLI­ NOIS 8ENAT0R, BEGUN LAST JUNE, CLOSED. DICTAGRAPH TEST IS MADE Opinion la Divided as to Sheridan's Ability as Stenographer--Hines on Witness 8tand, Saya Girl's Bribe Tate Is Falas. Washington.--Hearing of testimony in the senatorial Investigation of Sen­ ator Lorimer's election is concluded. Attorney Hanecy was given permis­ sion to file a brief and also present a plea of res adjudlca. Final action by the senate is not expected before June, although the preparation of Its report will be begun at once by the committee. The nature of the plea is that Sen­ ator Lorimer's seat was placed in jeopardy once before on the same charge and that the senate decided he was entitled to his toga. Tbe de­ fense will plead also that no addi­ tional evidence of material importance was brought out at the second inves­ tigation, and that the present com mittee haB no jurisdiction. The investigation Just ended began on June 20, 1911. The committee has been in session 102 days and haB ex amined 180 witnesses. It is estimated that the cost of the inquiry so far as the government is concerned is $101,- 000. Three things engaged the attention of the committee on the last day of its inquiry--tests of the ability of J. E. Sheridan, a stenographer em­ ployed by tbe Burns Detective agency, to take down a conversation heard through a dictagraph; an, apology from Milton W. Blumenberg, who lost his position when he denounced Sher­ idan's notes as "manufactured." and Edward Hines' denial of the story told by Miss Seevers that he had tried to bribe her. The dictagraph tests of Sheridan's ability were made under conditions approximating those encountered In Toronto when he made notes of a con versatlori between Charles McGowan. a Hine8-Lorimer witness, and two de­ tectives. At the conclusion of the tests the opinion was just as much divided as before regarding Sheridan's ability to take down a conversation heard through a dictagraph. U. S.

Bad Feeling Develops but Meeting Ends Without Vio­ lence. Belfast, Ireland.--Winston Churchill came here to the heart of the Orange­ man's country made an address and left safely for home minus the broken head which his opponents had predict­ ed for him. The first lord of the admiralty and John E. Redmond, leader of the Irish Nationalists, spoke from the same platform on the home rule bill. Mr. Churchill outlined the intentions of the government with respect to self- government for Ireland and declared no greater boon could come to the empire than the settlement of the long and bitter quarrel between the British government and tbe Irish peo­ ple. When Mr. Churchill, with his wife, arrived at the Central station bis party was given a somewhat mixed reception. A number of Orangemen who had gathered at tbe station greet­ ed them with groans and boos, but these were drownad in the hearty cheers of the large crowd of Liberals and Nationalists. The essential feature of the Liberal government's home rule bill to be In­ troduced into the British parliament were set forth by Mr. Churchill The bill is to contain provisions for a fair representation in the two houses of the Irish parliament of all classes of tbe Irish people and restric­ tions will be placed on the passing of laws or the Imposition of taxes which might be unjust to any party, while religious freedom is to be secured. ARRANGE A NEW ARMISTICE Chinese Empress Dowsger Makes Various Demands In Interest of Imperial Family. Peking.--A complete armistice has been arranged, but bargaining between Premier Yuan Shi Kai and the repub­ lican leaders Is likely to continue for several weeks before the court finally retires. Chinese papers publish the terms laid down by the empress dowager, which include the perpetuation of the titles of the entire court, retention by the imperial family of the palaces in Peking, continuation of the Imperial guard at the expense of the republic, and the right of the court to exact regal homage from the nation. It is believed that tbe republicans will not accept some of these terms. VOTES TO CUT DOWN ARMY House Adopts Amendment Dropping Five Regiments of Cavalry, or 4,000 Enlisted Men. Washington.--Five regiments of cav­ alry were dropped from the army list when the house passed an amendment to the Hay military bill. This means the mustering out of nearly 4,000 enlisted men, the absorp­ tion of tbe officers into other branches of the seryice, and an annual saving in pay and^equipment of more than $4,600,000. As the bill now reads that section which provides pay for the enlisted men by an appropriation of more than $15,000,000 makes the appropriation conditional on the proviso that on July 1, 1912, there shall not be more than ten regiments of cavalry In the United States army.

TOST OF GRAIN 1 GROWING IN CENTRAL CANADA -Ar J. *?,< ' ------ 'A earefcl canvass made of a num­ ber of men fanning in a large way indicates that even with the extreme expense of harvesting the crop, which has been caused by the bad weather and difficulty in threshing, wheat has been produced and put on the market for less than 55 cents a bushel. Th« average freight rate is not over IS cents per bushel. This would make tbe cost of production and freight 68 oents and would leave the farmer an actual margin on his low-grade wheat of 17% cents and for his high-grade wheat of 19% cents', and though this is not as large a profit as the farmer has every right to expect, it is a profit not to be despised, and which should leave a very fair amount of money to his credit when all the expenses of the year have been paid, unless the value of lew-grade wheat sinks very jnu«h below its present level. A mat­ ter of importance to the prospective settler is that of the cost of produc­ tion. The following table has been prepared after careful investigation: Interest on 820 acres, value |30 per acre, 3 years at 6 per cent Interest $1,720.00 Interest on horses, machin­ ery, wagons, ploughs, har­ rows, etc., to operate 320 acres--say $2,600 for 3 years 450.00 Getting 320 acres ready for crop first year, doing one's own work, with hired help, about $3.50 per acre.. 1,120.00 Getting 320 acres ready for crop, second and third year, about fl.25 per acre per year, or $2.50 per acre 2 years one's own work and hired help 800.00 Seed per year, wheat, per acre $1.25, 3 years 1,200.00 {Seeding, 320 acres, 25 oents per acre, 3 years 240.00 Twine, 320 acres, 30- cents per acre, 3 years 288.00 Harvesting, 320 acres, 30 cents per acre, 3 years 288.00 Marketing, 320 acres, esti­ mate 20 bushels per acre per year for 3 years, 3 cents per bushel, or 9 cents per bushel for 3 years 576.00 {Threshing 320 acres, estimate 20 bushels per acre per year for 3 years, 6 cents per bushel per year or 18 oents for 3 years 1,152.00 V. .
