NATION'S CRY: "GET BUSY'
Hrriral of Industry From Coast to
Coast Bankers and Business
Men Predict Great Era
X Activity.
NEW YORK. Nov. 7. (Special.)
The World tomorrow morning will print
an exhaustive review, of the revival of
Industry following the election, show
ing that 1,000.000 men are marching
briskly forward to reopened factories,
busy whirling looms and spindles and
to railroads and other branches.
From every section of the United
States the whistles of shops and fac
torles are shrieking a rousing welcome
to battalions of employes who are re
sponding promptly to the call for more
help to man the plants which have been
entirely closed or practically out of
commission pending the result of the
National election.
Huge Demand for Labor.
In each quarter of the Nation smoke
pours from the chimneys of establish
ments which have been working re
duced forces of men at' half time. Rush
orders for additional equipment have
poured Into the offices of machinery
builders In volume sufficient to swamp
them and creating at once a tremen
dous demand for additional employes.
All along the line word has been
passed that prosperity has arrived si
multaneously with the election of Will
lam H. Taft. and. like a giant, business
and manufacturing Interests have
roused from lethargy and. shaking off
the shackles of uncertainty and distrust
of radical changes In economic condi
tions, have ordered Ores rekindled and
forces doubled.
Every barometer of trade has changed
utterly within a week The first news
from the polls sent the glass to the
"fair weather" mark, and within a week
business conditions from coast to coast
have become wonderfully settled.
Unprecedented Prosperity.
From financial headquarers the sig
nal has been flashed to bustness firms
to hurry the building of delayed rail
road lines. Contracts Involving expen
ditures of huge sums for equipment and
labor and which contained clauses con
ditioned upon the election result, hae
been put Into effect by telegraph. In
many manufacturing centers of the
Kast and West, and In the South, the
full strength of the labor army Is prac
tically called Into action.
There Is not an Industrial captain
but has signalled the magic slogan,
"Get busy!" From all parts of the
country come details of a revival of In
dustries and business.
The World then follows with nine
columns of dispatches from all indus
trial centers in all parts of the United
states, showing unusual activity, and
quotes bankers and business men as
predicting the greatest spasm of pros
perity the country has experienced tor
years. The trend of all the Interviews
Is that the country feels firm ground
. under its feet, with no obstacles In the
way of progress.

Keeplajt the Dove Busy,
Heavyweights Crush Hollywood Boys
and Three Are In Hospital One
Is Raving Like Maniac.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., Nov. 7. (Spe
cial.) In a friendly football game be
tween the elevens of Hollywood and
Paadena Hlgii Schools in the latter
city thia afternoon, six players were in
jured, three seriously and one perhaps
fatally, and four of .hem are now in
a hospital. The chief sufferers are
members of the Hollywood team, which
was outweighed an average of over 30
pounds to tne player, and were crushed
down by their more powerful op
ponents. Fullback Charles Knowles sustained
an injury to the spine which caused
total paralysis for two hours and may
yet cause death. Arthur Pftester, cen
ter, was struck In the neck and a
chord injured in such a manner that
his mind became affected, and he raved
like a maniac, but has .now nearly
recovered. Neal Hill, guard, was
thrown with a leg under him, and the
member was fractured below the knee,
while J. Temple's ankle was wrenched
In a elmilar manner. Paul Smith and
Ned Wachof, Pasadena players, were
hurt about the head.
This Is tne death knell of Hollywood
football, aa efforts have long been made
to abolish the sport there.

STRUGGLE CERTAIN TO ENSUE
Progressive Ones Will Combat

SEVERAL NAMED FOR PLACE
a Follette, Dolllver, Beverldge,
Lodge, Knox and Others Men
tioned as Successor to
. Rhode Island Senator.
OREGOXIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, Nov. 7. If Senator Aldrich retires
from Congress at the close of his present
term. March 4. 1911. the Republicans of
that body will have a merry time select
ing a new leader. It is by no means cer
tain that Aldrich will retire It is partic
ularly doubtful if Aldrich will voluntarily
retire but if he does retire, voluntarily
or otherwise, at the close of the 61st
Congress, there will be a fight for control
of the Senate, the like of which has not
been witnessed in. many years.
Aldrich to Retire.
All this speculation grows out of the
recent declaration of ex-Governor Utter,
of Rhode Island, that Senator Aldrich,
when last elected, told him he would not
again seek re-election. There Is no doubt
that Senator Aldrich made the statements
attributed to him, but there Is grave doubt
whether he will two years hence hold the
same views that he held when he was
elected to the Senate for the fifth consec
utive term. It is to be remembered that
Aldrich was then in poor health, whereas
today he Is physically sound and ro
bust. ,
But if Aldrich does retire, who will
succeed him? It Is a matter worthy of
note that there is no member of the Sen
ate who stands out pre-eminently quali
fied for leadership of that body. Thtfre
are many who would like to succeed
Aldrich, but when the list of availables
Is examined, very few are found who can
be considered probabilities. There Is this
to be remembered the character of the
Senate at the opening of the 62nd Congress
will have much to do with the selection
of a new leader.
Undesirables Checked Off.
Marked changes are taking place in the
Senate; members of the so-called "Aldrich
crowd" are being retired and radicals are
being elected in their stead. Several
staunch Aldrich men will retire at the
close of the coming session; still others
will be retired two years later. How
many. It Is too early to say. But the
ranks of the Aldrich crowd are being de
pleted, and the radicals are gaining in
numbers. They are still in the minority,
but it is quite possible that they will have
gained control of the majority organiza
tion In another two years. If they do,
neither Aldrich nor any member of the
Aldrich faction can be leader.
If. however, the Aldrich element is still
in control when the 62nd Congress as
sembles, and - If Aldrich bas been elimi
nated, one way or the other, there are
several men whft might be made a party
leader. The names of Knox, of Pennsyl
vania, and Crane, of Massachusetts, are
most frequently mentioned, but Kean, of
New Jersey, Hale and Frye, of Maine,
are also to be reckoned with, and any one
of the five might be chosen.
Crane Best Organizer.
Of them all, Crane is naturally the beat
organizer, but Crane is a new Senator,
and he is not a speaker. These are heavy
handicaps. Knox. In point of ability,
ranks with the best men of either fac
tion, but he, too, is comparatively young
in the Senate. Of the older heads, Hale

Faculty Sore Over Poster and Play
Which "Joshed" Them Prom
inent Student9 Suffer.
SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 7. (Special.)
Seven Juniors of Stanford University were
indefinitely suspended today for participa
tion in the annual Junior Plug Ugly cere
monies. In a poster and play the faculty
was Joshed and these remarks were so
bitterly resented that seven of the most
prominent men of the class were dis
missed. Among the victims are W. P.
Fuller, Jr., son of the millionaire paint
and glass dealer, of San Francisco, who
Is editor of Sequoia and of the college
daily; C. H. Hails, also on the college
paper, and J. C. Shelton. Carnot medal
debater.
The students are much wrought up over
these dismissals, as the Jokes were like
those in previous years and no intima
tion had been given that there good-natured
"joshes" would be visited with
punishment. The feeling among the stu
dents is so bitter that a ' repetition of
the scenes of last year is feared.

DONE TO STOP CIVIL SUIT
Colonel's Son Instigated Affair,
'Tis Said,' So Father Would Not
Have to Account for Money He
Spent In Private Company.
ASHEVILLK, N. C, Nov. 7. (Special.)
Following the sensational charges made
against Mrs. Sophia Harrison Eastman,
daughter of the late Carter Harrison, for
many terms Mayor of Chicago, was the
report today that a receiver for her coun
try place. Buck Shoals, built by the late
humorist. Bill Nye, had been appointed.
The court ordered the receiver to at once
oust Colonel McBee, who until recently
has been Mrs. Eastman's companion in
public.
Mrs. Eastman's friends point out that
the warrant, accusing her of residing In
the same house with a man to whom she
was neither married nor related, was is
sued at the Instance of MoBee's son, and
declare that it was done to frighten her
from pursuing her civil suit, demanding
an accounting from McBee for her money
invested in the place. '
Mrs. Eastman remained calm during
the day and waved aside both sympathy
and gossip. Her attorneys filed a bill in
equity and the court named S. G. Bernard
receiver. The arrest and ball proceedings
against Colonel McBee were not on ac
count of the criminal charge against Mrs.
Eastman, but on the charge that he had
not cared for money and property of
hers. His bond was fixed at 4000, which
was arranged for by McBee.

CHICAGO, 111., Nov. 7. (Special.)
Matrimony and divorce are to be the
subjects of discussion by the Chicago
City Council Monday night. Unless the
plans of Alderman Fred A. Britten, of
the Twenty-third Ward, go astray, a
start will be made toward the procur
ing of state legislation that will make
the quick divorce an object of terror
to all warring couples.
As soon as the Council has dealt
with the ordinance forbidding matri
monial agencies, which has been rec
ommended for passage by the Judiciary
committee, Mr. Britten will Introduce
an order directing the legislative com
n i. aA .r th, PnnnHl to nrenare a bill
obstructing divorce for presentation to
the State Legislature. The principal
points of the bill are to be as follows:
"First It shall be unlawful to file a
bill setting forth the causes for ask
ing a divorce until a year after a
simple plea.Tor divorce without partic
ularization has been filed."
This is intended to make It impos
sible to have a hearing in a divorce
case for at least a year after the fil
ing of the original bill.
"Second It shall be a felony for any
person to go to another state and ob
tain a divorce without residing in the
the other state at least a year previous
to the granting of the decree."

Government Wins Victory Over
Ryan's Trust Injunction Sus
pended Until the Ap
peal Is Decided.
NEW YORK, Nov. 7. The contention
of the Government that the American
Tobacco Company Is a trust operated
In restraint of trade and competition
In violation of the Sherman anti-trust
law. was sustained today In decisions
handed down by Judges Lacombe, Cox
and Noyes In the United States Cir
cuit Court here. Judge Ward handed
down a dissenting opinion.
In the suit, which was prosecuted
by James C. McReynolds and Edwin P.
Grosvenor, special assistants of the
United States Attorney General, the
Government asked for an Injunction
dissolving the combination. The Gov
ernment also asked the United States
Circuit Court to appoint a receiver to
wind up the affairs of the allied cor
porations. While finding that there
was an illegal combination as charged.
Judges Lacombe, Cox and Noyes in
their opinion say that Injunctions
should Issue against all the defendants
except the United Cigar Stores Com
pany and the R. P. Richards, Jr., Com
pany. The Injunctions are, however,
stayed pending an appeal to the
United States Supreme Court.
Receiver Held Unnecessary.
The petition asking for the appoint
ment of & receiver was refused as
being "impracticable and wholly un
necessary." The Imperial Tobacco Company and
the British-American Tobacco Com
pany, English corporations, were in
cluded in the Government's suit, but
the complaints against these companies
were dismissed.
Judge Lacombe in his decision said:
"There can be little doubt that the
Federal statute has been violated.
Each one of the purchases of compa
nies complained of In the petition was
a contract and combination In re
straint of competition existing when
it was entered into, and that is suf
ficient to bring it within the ban of
this drastic statute."
Controls World's Tobacco.
The Government's complaint against
the American Tobacco Company In
cluded the names., of a large number
of subsidiary and allied companies, but
not all of these are Included in the
decision handed down by the Judges
of the United States Circuit Court to
day. In the course of the examinations It
developed that the American Tobacco
Company and Its subsidiaries practi
cally controlled the tobacco trade of
the world. This control, so Par as foreign
markets are concerned, was shown to
have been of comparatively recent ori
gin, however, and came about through
the formation of a working agreement
with a great British corporation
which previously had controlled the
production and consumption not only
In Europe, but in Asia as well.
