The fe.msters.

who are bearing the brunt of he struggle at present, are now facing one of the most sweeping Injunctions ever asked against a labVr organization. It will be presented To Judge Holdom at 10 o'clock this morning and if a temporary order is granted the team-ter will become liable for contempt of court if they attempt Interfere with the wagons of the company or the delivery of freight or express packages to the plant at Congress and Green streets. The officials of the company said last night that they intended to make freight deliveries to every freight shed In the down-town district necessary in their regular course of Speaking for the employer Frederick W. Job. secretary of the Employers-Association of Chlcego, said that the merchants who had goods to send to the Kellogg plant would begin to deliver them this morning and vuat It the union teamsters refused to haul the merchandise nonunion truckers would be hired to do the work.

Hugh McGee. president of the Truck Drlv-. era' union, said that while this was a fight In which the other union employes of the company were directly Involved the teamsters would stand "pat" until the company settled its differences with the other unions. Teamatera Leaa Warlike. Thus It was both parties to the controversy were stubbornly standing out for their demands last night and the developments of to day will be watched with interest.

Notice of the petition for an injunction against the teamsters toned down their leaders some what, and there was not as radical talk for war yesterday as was expressed last week. The Injunction sought by the company la In the form of a supplemental bill to the injunction granted soma time ago by Judge Holdom restraining other unions involved in the struggle from in any way Interfering with the company's business. Attorney A. C. Allen, who is conducting the legal fight for the Kellogg company, spent all of yesterday In his office preparing the document.

Tbo declaration Is sweeping and the charge of conspiracy Is stated In strong terms. The defendants are alleged to have "entered Into an unlawful and corrupt conspiracy and combination with each other to obstruct and prevent, by force, violence, threats. Intimidations, and boycotts, your orator from continuing to prosecute the said manufacturing business of your orator at its said factory and from transporting or causing to be trans-. ported its goods." It Is alleged In the petition that the officials of the teamsters' union have given orders to their members not to deliver goods to the company's plants, which orders, It Is asserted, amount to commands. It is recited that the company baa been compelled to buy teams of Its own and to secure police protection In transporting goods since the teamsters went on a sympathetic strike against the company on June 24.

Valoa Officials The defendants named In the petition for the injunction are Albert president of the Teamsters' National union; Samuel Johnson, vice president: E. Fitch. M.J. Dwyer, Daniel Furman. James Sheridan, E.

L. Turley.W. J. Gibbons, William Hig-glns, and J. B.

Fitzpatrlck. member of the national executive board, and Hugh McGee. president of the Truck Drivers' union, and Its secretary. Daniel Furman. The petition is supported by affidavits tcad by President De Wolf of the Kellogg company, Superintendent Edwards, and L.

W. Kellogg. They recite developments in the strike situation backing up the allega- tlons that a conspiracy against the company exists. According to tbe plana of the company official an effort will be made today to resume business in earnest by attempting to ret supplies to the plant. Although the union leaders say the teamsters have not been riven orders to refuse to make deliveries to the plant.all union truckers have steadfastly refused to do any trucking; for the company since the teamster voted their sympathies with the other unions Involved.

Express drivers have been ordered arway from the vicinity of the plant by their business agents, and the coal supply was shut off as well. If the merchants attempt to make deliveries today, as Secretary Job insists they will, the teamaters will have to show their hand. Track Drivers Will Xot Yield. Speaking of the situation last night. President McGee of the Truck Drivers' union said: "There are only three truck drivers directly Involved In thia fight.

They will stay out until the company settles with the other unions Interested. If the railroads want to discriminate In favor of the nonunion fmb drivers sent to their sheds by the Kellogg company and permit the union drlvera to be mienerea wui our men will withdraw from their yards. fhey can take a vacation for awhile; we have money enough to take of them. We will not permit union drlvera to be Interfered with for the benefit of the Kellogg company." The statement of President McGee waa taken to mean that a general "boycott" of the railroad freight sheds by union teamsters might result should the Kellogg people attempt to deliver freight at all of the main freight yaids. as Attorney Thomas I).

Knight aaya they will. In face of the petition for an Injunction, many of the union leaders believe this to be the most effective way to act. To Reaanae Peace Efforts.

along the Kellogg people have refused to do thld, and, according to the best Information obtainable, they have not receded from thia stand. Attorney Allen, spaaking for the company, will today make reply to President Schardt's suggestion that the company reinstate all the strikers who make application for their old positions within three, days after a settlement is agreed upon. According to thia scheme all of the men who make application for reinstatement are to be taken back within ten days. Attorney Allen would not say last night what the answer would be, but it is understood a sort of counter' proposition -will be offered by the Now that the election of officers of the federation ia out of the way, it is believed that President Schardt will take a more definite stand in the negotiations. The officials of the company are satisfied wtth the manner In which he has nroceeded thun far.

but it is known that he was somewhat handicapped on account of his being a candidate for re-election of the federation. The conservative lement is looking to President Schardt to bring order out of what ia believed to be a serious situation involving big Industrial interest as- well as the trade-unionist movement. The union freight handlers declare that union truckers are dally handling Kellogg freight. They assert that It Is being handled by them and that they know of specific instances where It was taken to warehouses by union teamaters. Xew Boycott Plaaaed.

President L. J. Curran of the freight handlers' organization says he is going to put the teamsters on record again. The cracker packers have requested President Curran to order bis men to refuse to the supplies of the National Biscuit company being shipped to Chicago on account of the strike and lockout in the local plants. President -Curran eahl yesterday he was going to 'send a committee to tbe teamsters today with the proposition that If they would refuse to handle the National Biscuit goods bla men would do likewise.

Curran said that If the teamsters refused to agree to this bis men would continue to handlo the gooda. OPEN rAGK -OPEN PACK -OPEN-MOTHER JONESVAFWIY ARRIVES. Craaadcra Reach Jew York aad Await Aadlcaee with President. Ppclal Dispatch to The Inter Ocran. PATERSON.

The Chicago Democratic club, to which Mayor Harrison has intrusted his political aspirations. Is open for political Flushed with the success of tbe first annual picnlo held Saturday at Brand's park.

It was announced yesterday that "Pop" Anson's marching braves would not refuse any out-of-town engagements to help boost along the cause of the unterrifled and, incidentally, the Harrison interests. Already plans are on foot for a tonr of the down state counties. The "Egyptian" Democrats in Southern Illinois are in with an invitation and it has been accepted. A. big trip is being planned for the early part of October, when the Harrison organization will invade the southern' extremity of the state and carry the news of the mayor's aspirations across -the Mississippi into Missouri.

Blar Raly la "Earypt." The scheme is to have a big "rally" with tbe "Egyptian" Democrats, after which Captain Anson will lead bis men over to St. Louis and tbe big exposition grounds w'here' there will be ample space in which to give the impetus of a Presidential boom. The Harrison organization has also been invited to visit Denver, Colo. When told of this yesterday Captain James H. Far well, of County Democracy fame, started a movement for the organization of the marching forces and promises to make even a better showing than his" old organization.

The Invitation to visit Denver fixes Aug. as the time. The club has not accepted the invitation as yet. In tbe contemplated down-etate tour, a movement of the Harrison forces to secure control of the next state convention Is seen by the wise ones. Two years ago the Harrison followers were routed by John P.

Hopkins. Roger Sullivan. George E. Brebnan. and other leaders of the anti-Harrison wing of Plaa to Boost Harrlsoa.

The scheme of the Harrlsonites is to get the mayor out Into the slate so that he may be given an opportunity to "mix up" with the powers that be in country- politics. They figure that a campaign of this son will go far toward giving the Harrison followers needed support In a state convention fight. A leader In the Harrison wing who would not permit the use of his name taid last night: "Yon can say that the Chicago Democratic club is not going to refuse anv invitation in the future. We are going to get acquainted and it's going to be a wide acquaintance at mat. The trip down the state has been planned for some time and we expect good results.

As-to the Denver invitation, I do not know that it has been accepted. Last spring it was suggested that the mayor should go out there and maybe thev have renewed the Invitation."

Had Elin Hanson and Adolph Lindberg been married three weeks ago yesterday in Eskelstuna. Sweden, where both were born. Instead of In New York, old Sweden might have knowa before now of the story-book romance behind the wedding. Elin Hanson and Adolph Lindberg were sweethearts from childhood, and when Adolph was old enough to ask Ella to marry him. she was old enough to answer him in the right way.

But her father was rich and Adolph told Elin that. If she would wait for him, he would go to America, where millions were made In a minute. Then he would return to Exkelstuna and marry her. After a while tbe letters stopped, for Adolph married In America. About a year ago Elin picked up a copy of the Eskelstuna Kurler, and in it read something that made her happy.

It was tbe death notice of AdolDh Lindberghs wife in Minneapolis. to- geiner witn tne statement mat the deceased was survived by a husband and two sons, aged 6 and 2 years, respectively. There was more correspondence and Elin crossed the sea to marry her old sweetheart. They will cpend their honeymoon at Atlantic City and Narragansett Pier, going to Minneapolis in about a month.

THEY WILL PLUNGE AT BRIGHTON BEACH UcCkeaaey to Be Backed Off the Booka, If Poailble, Wkea He Meets ater Boy la tke Foar-Yesr-Old Amerleaa Ckamploaaklp. Picking the ponies out at Washington park Isn't nearly as easy as manipulating Louisville Nashville stock, as John W.

Gates, and his millionaire companion, John A. Drake, discovered at the meeting just closed. Somehow the bookmakers were not as easily frightened as the American Steel and Wire stockholders, and didn't run when they saw Mr. Gates come puffing into tbe betting ring with his hands clasping great rolls of bank notes. Whether they were too frightened to run is not known, but all the bookmakers stood their ground and allowed Messrs.

Gates, Drake, to push the money into their cash boxes. But as one man cannot manipulate a horse race as well as he can the stock market, it is said that about J25O.0OO of this money never returned to the pockets of the millionaires. AVI11 Try Brlitktoa Beach. But the two Johns intend to get even. Today they start for Brighton Beach, where they will try to shove the burden of their losses over to the shoulders of the Eastern bookies.

It is not expected that the Brighton Beach bookmakers will be made to stand the whole quarter of a million dollars, which Is said by some to be the amount of the combined losses of John W. Gates and John A. Drake during tbe meet Just closed In Chicago, for the millionaires are planning a raid on tho various Eastern tracks. They are going to do things down East not such as they did at Washington park but just as they did last year, when plunging was as financially remunerative as managing a steel company, when each had the touch of Midas, and when a truck horse backed with Drake money could have distanced a field of Savables. Tkey Will Plonge on MeChesaey.

These two plungers, who think they are "piking" when they lay a bet of 15.000, are going to commence their killing by backing McChesney clear off the books, if possible, against Water Boy for the 4-year-old American championship. They are going to put so much money on the Western horse that the backing of Savable In tbe Derby will look like 20 cents. McChesney Is the recognized Western champion of his class, while Water Boy holds a similar place In the East, although both horses are owned by Eastern millionaires. McChesney, however, has never been East until this trip, and he is expected by his friends and backers in the West to lay It all over Water Boy. The experiences of these two plungers at the Washington park meet were fearfully and wonderfully made as were some of their bets.

Charlie Gates haB been a close understudy to bis father, and one Lambert piker as compared with the two millionaires has followed fast la their steps. Kverythln- ila Gone Wroaar. Superstition has played Its part, and Jockeys and horses have gone all wrong In the wake of these two plungers. Entirely unlike last year's meetings, everything has gone against them, or apparently so. Last year they couldn't lose or.

at least, they did not either at Washington Park or In the East. This year it Las been just the opposite, and they can't understand It. Tbe bad luck commenced early In the meet. It really dates from Derby day, when Savable. heavily backed, lost.

This was the beginning of their destruction. It was closely followed by the defeat of High Chancellor, another blow. Both horses- were ridden by Lester Reiff "of the 'Steenth cavalry." Re iff Is disgusted and says he never will take another mount. The biggest bet of the ceason, and the one which waa the biggest loss to the millionaire plungers was on Stuyve July 11. It Is said that Gates, Drake, and Lambert put up $72,000 on this horse, considered a sure winner.

In fact Stuyve was, by all odds, the best horse In the race. There were eight starters and when the bookies raw that the plungers liked stuyve the dorse was quickly backed down from 6 to to 4 to 5. Of the eight starters, five were practically left at the post. Stuyve did little better. He got away very poorly, but durlirg the race made up twenty lengths and finished second to Foxy Kane at 8 to 1.

Of the 173.000 said to have been lost by the three men on this race, the steel magnate was credited with $10,000, Drake, $23,000. and Lambert, $10,000. Bad Lack Emphasised. An Instance of the luck of thia day, and that in which the plungers played throughout the meet, was shown when they tried to get even on Runnells In the following race. Although they offered more, the bookmakers would take only $7,000 at 3 to 5, and Runnells won.

It was not long after this experience that the son of the millionaire steel man, Charles Gates, purchased a $7 mackintosh. On the strength of the price of his new raincoat be la said lo have played all the sevens on the card, and they all lost. The next day tbe performance was repeated with the same result. The mascot was a bad one, so young Gates left No. 7 alone, and for two days it was the winning number.

Gates, was a prominent figure at the raddock throughout the meet, as he paraded up and down in his white spats, munching a "red hot" and a lice of rye bread, one held in either Early In the meet both Gates and Drake were a little "to the bad," and they thought to get even on Drake's horse, Vincennes. Drake put up a few thousand dollars at 8 to 1. Gates gave his commissioner, Tom Gallagher, $5,000 to place on Vincennes. When that horse came in ahead of the string In a gallop the two millionaires in. their box clasped hands and grinned.

Then Gallagher came up. and announced he had been unable to place the Gates money. The steel matt was so angry. It Is Bald, that bo went to the stand and complained of the start, but Judge Morris wouldn't listen to him. Then be la naid to have taken the commissioner to task, saying he had once bet In two minutes while the horses were at the post, and it was strange Gallagher couldn't place a paltry $5,000 in twenty minutes.

Tkclr Lara-eat Wlaalag. The blggeBt winning made during the meet by these men Is said to have been on John McGurk, June 29. Gates, Drake, and Lambert backed this horse from 5 to 2 to 8 to 5, and are said to have won upward of $60,000. Of thirl amount Gates Is credited with $40,000, Drake and Lambert $5,000. They also won on Hargls the same day.

But July 9 they dropped a small fortune on Hargls. The greater part of the losses of the men are said to have been aggregated by smaller bets. There were some days when tbey played to $5,000 on. each race and failed to cash once. While both Gates and Drake are "thoroughbreds" with the bookmakers, they have entirely different Drake depends entirely on his commissioners to place his Commissioners can't get it up fast enough for Gates, it is said.

During the hottest days of the meet he was In the middle of tbe betting ring, money In his hands, and sweat rolling down his face. Neither of the plungers is what would be called a cheerful loser, but the bookies say both are "game winners." JOHN A. Millionaire turfman and plunger, who la race "EXEMPT" TAX LIST MAY BE CURTAILED Assessment of All Property Not Actually Used for Religious or Charitable Purposes Urged. When the board or review meets today to begin Its annual revision of the real estate and personal property valuations fixed by the board of assessors the members will be urged to make sweeping changes in the application of the "exempt" clause of Cook county's revenue law. John Kichberg, attorney for the board, will advise that every piece of real estate and every building owned by a church or public hospital but not used for religious or charitable purposes be assessed the same as private property.

This recommendation, if followed by the board, means that every parish-house, every parochial school, every private hospital, and everx parsonage, as well as all property owned by religious and charitable institutions, now leased to business firms, will be assessed full value. For years this class of property has been exempt under the state law, which says that all property devoted to church, school, aad charitable purposes shall not be taxed. Mr. RUhberg Insists that a strict Interpretation of the law- will exempt only the churches themselves, the public hospital, and the schools which are free to the public. Teat C'aae la Expected.

If the board of review follows advice, notices of assessment will be sent to all these Institutions this week. A test case will be made' at once and carried to the Supreme court, no matter which way it is decided. In the event that the attorney's point Is sustained the city's revenues will be increased by more than $10,000,000. Clerks of the board were at work on the assessment tables yesterday in order to have them ready today, and, while they were not complete last night. Mr.

Rlchberg said the additional revenue would go above the $10,000,000 figure. It was suggested that the Supreme court had passed on this question many years ago. "I admit that," said Mr. Rlchberg, "but there are several new points which the court would be compelled to take Into consideration at the present time. Take, for instance, the many big Investments in down-town property held by various universities, hospitals, and religious organizations.

They lease their holdings, not on a 4 per cent basis, as the private owner must do, but on. a 6 per cent basis. Tho leases are able and willing to pay this extra sum, because they are not compelled to pay taxea. You can see that therefore the business men are paying the institutions the taxes the city should get. "Then there are 200 hospitals, perhaps more, which pay no taxea.

They are In no DRAKE. accredited with heavy losses during last meet. sense public Institutions. The public Is not admitted unless it has the money to pay. These hospitals pay big; dividends on the capital Invested, and as they are as purely private as any other business the city should collect taxes from them.

"It only a short time since the courts passed upon this question. The First Methodist church block, at Clark and Washington streets, was assessed, and the case carried before tbe county judge, whose decision eventually was sustained. It was decided that there should be no assessment upon that part of the property given over wholly to church uses, but that taxes should he paid on that part rented for business purposes. As the church uses only a small part of the structure it was taxed nearly as much as if the property had been owned by an individual. "It is on this ruling that I hold parsonages and parish are not exempt, whether connected with a church or separate.

The Archbishop's palace, is has been argued, is a part of the church because it Is there certain ceremonies, such as marriages, are performed. But the Protestant preacher, living several blocks from his church, could hold the same view, for he marries people In bis home, although he needs no altar only his service book. "As to schools, there are two decisions distinctly' at variance with each other. In one case It was decided that certain property owned by a school should be assessed because the school rented It and had an income from it. In another case, that of tbe Monti-cello seminary, the court held that as the land was fenced In and the vegetables raised upon It were used at the seminary, no tax should be paid.

What I want lo know is. Which of these decisions is right? "I have no doubt that many lawsuits will follow if my advice is taken, but these will clear the air and decide an important principle of taxation. The exemption of property has become so great that I feel it Is necessary to apply the fundamental principles of law and Justice, without regard to the manner in which property has been assessed heretofore, except where the law haa been clearly defined by the higher courts." President Roy O. West and F. D.

Meacham of the board of review were not in the city yesterday, and Fred W. Upham, tbe other member, could not be found, so It was Impossible to secure from them any bint as to what action the board intends to take on tho proposition. Bishop Muldoon, when seen at hie residence last was asked how the enforcement of the tax law regarding church property would affect the Catholic church interests. He said: "The Catholic church is paying taxes on all revenue property In the diocese. Illinois supposed to be a Christian state, and Christians are the voters.

If tbey pass and uphold an unjust and partial law they will have no one to blame but themselves. "It la a pity that the church. In her exclusively church work, cannot be given freedom from taxation, when her ministry does more for the comon good- than all the police, forces. Judges, and laws In the community. If the reformers continue they will shortly try to license teachers of the gospel.

"Today the Catholic church in the city of Chicago Is saving the city annually fully $2,000,000 by her schools. But she is doing a good work, therefore add to the burden! Tax Christianity to the limit, but be merciful to the money-making corporations!"

Prouty and nearly all the residents ot La Grange as assistant fairies, that little cripples from the O'Fallon school took a trip into picture-book land Saturday. That's what one little fellow, who never has been in the country before, called It, for never before had he seen anything like It, except In books.
