British steamers Strathroy, Maple

rinaga, Cervantes. Cornish City, Pruth,
Condor and Lynrowan, all of which
were sunk by the Karlsruhe. The
I'refeld was accompanied into port by
Ihe German steamers Patagonia, Hio
N'egro and Asuncion.
A later message states that over
400 men of the crews are prisoners
jnd that the merchantment were
mostly sunk in the Atlantic. The
ships were mostly engaged in the
South American trade and their total
tonnage was about 60,000.
The cruiser Karlsruhe, a ship of a
tritlle less than 5,000 tons, has had
In this war, a career as eventful in the
Atlantic as that of her smaller sistpr
ship, the Emden, in the Indian Ocean.
The Karlsruhe first came into no
tice at the outbreak of the war, when
she appeared in the vicinity of Sandy
Hook, apparently in wait for British
merchantmen leaving New York. For
i few days the British shipping
hugged their piers and then came
news that the Karlsruhe had been
driven away by the approach of sev
eral British cruisers.
On August 9 the Karlsruhe appeared
Iti the harbor of San Juan, Porto Rico,
where she coaled and the.n again tool;
fo Jhe seas. Soon after it was learned
that the Karlsruhe had been in a sen-
Rational running fight at sea with the
British cruisers Suffolk and Bristol.
It appears that the British cruisers
came unexpectedly upon the Karls
ruhe while she was coaling from the
German steamer Kronprinz Wilhelm.
The cruisers engaged in a running
light while the Kronprinz Wllhelm,
through superior speed, easily es
caped. The Karlsruhe also eluded
y
of what the coffee trade think of the harmfulness of the<coffee-drug, caffeine, is
shown in their efforts to get rid of it—to get a coffee that doesn't contain caffeine!
When they <|,o succeed in getting rid of some of the caffeine drug-content,
tlie result is a weak, "clover-tea" decoction that few appreciate.
But after all their efforts to rid coffee of part of its caffeine, how about the
other coffee-drug, "tannin"—about 2 2-5 grains to every cup of coffee?
Tannin is the drug used to tan hides with. Do you know what it does to
your stomach? Probably not. Here what good authorities say about it:—
"Tannic acid in coffee interferes with digestion."
"The caffeine and tiieine in coffee and tea ar<; cerebral stim
ulants and the tannic acid is an astringent, affecting
especially the muscular fibers of the intestinal walls."
"Tannic acid is universally condemned by all authorities as
a hindrance to digestion and health."
Why keep on running tTie risk of serious interference with health. Why not
quit a table beverage that bears in its train a lot of trouble like nervousness,
headache, heart, stomach, bowel disturbance, insomnia, etc.
Thousands, suffering from these ills, find it easy to quit coffee when they
have at hand the delicious, nourishing beverage—
POSTUM
—k pure food-drink.
Made from prime wheat (roasted like coffee) and a bit of wholesome mo
lasses, it contains no caffeine, tannin or any other drug or harmful substance.
Postum comes in two forms—Regular Postum—must be boiled, 15c and 25c
packages; and Instant Postum—soluble—made in the cup instantly, 30c and'soc
tins. Both kinds are sold by Grocers and the cost per cup is about the same.
Old and young alike, drink POSTUM with pleasure and comfort.

Since then the Karlsruhe has ap

Reveals McCorraick'j Labor Rec
ord in Light of Hit Protes
tations About Labor
MERCILESS COURT RECORDS
They Show Just What McCormick
Did About Damage Suits For
the Lives of Men
Senator Edward E. Beidlernan, of
this city, last night uncovered some
of the real labor record of Vance C.
McCormick, the millionaire candidate
for Governor on the mule ticket and
it makes interesting reading in the
light of the protestations of the same
I McCormick that he Is a friend to la
bor.
The statements were made in a
speech at Morrisville, where the sena
tor spoke before a large crowd that
listened in astonishment as the court
records were read to give ideas of the
way McCormick had really acted when
he had a chance to provide for the
families of men killed in mines. This
is the way Beidlernan put it before
the people.
From the Court Records
"Is he the friend of labor and does
he honestly believe in workmen's com
pensation ?
"I hold in my hand a record of a
number of suits brought against the
Sonman Shaft Coal Company. One
by Veronica Kunko, for herself and
four minor children, to No. 3 52, Sep
tember Term, 1908, in the Court of
Common Pleas of Cambria county; an
other by Edward R. llalleran, a fath
er who had lost his son, to No. 353,
September Term, 1908, in the same
Court of Common Pleas; another by
Virginia Ritchey, for herself and her
two children, to No. 354. September
Term, 1908, in the same Court of
Common Pleas; another by G. IT. R.
Groke, to No. 346, September Term,
1908, in the same Court of Common
Pleas, and still another in the same
Court of Common Pleas by Bessie
McAlister, for herself and her three
children, to No. 34 7, September Term,
1908. These five suits were brought
to recover the value of the lives of
five men who were killed while work
ing in a mine that was owned by Mr.
McCormick and his associates: they
were settled on a basis of $2,000, or
an average of $4 00 per life.
"I want to read you what is said in
the report of these matters made by
a true representative of labor in Penn
sylvania. He says: 'I might state
that these amounts were not settled up
on between the parties and the com
pany, but that a settlement was made
for a lump sum of $2,000 for the five
lives, and a distribution was arranged
by mutual agreement between the
1 families affected and the attorneys
representing them, and the U. M. W.
of A. This settlement for this low
llgure was brought about because of
the fact that the Sonman Shaft Coal
Company was in a bad financial con
dition and it was agreed that no
amount could be collected from them
to exceed that amount. And, further
i more, 'Mr. and Mr. , both
told me that through some peculiarity
in the affairs or titles of the Sonman
Coal Company, they, the plaintiffs,
would not have much standing in
court, and that the settlement made
was virtually all that the Sonman

Coal Company believed the lives of the 1
men to be worth.'
Wliat McCormlck Said
"Shortly after this settlement had
taken place, this same Sonman Shaft
Coal Company brought its suit against
the Pennsylvania Railroad Company .
to recover damages for an alleged in
sufficient car supply. That case is re- ,
ported in 241 Pennsylvania State Re
ports of pages 487. Mr. McCormiek's
testimony given in the case is as fol
lows:
"Vance C. McCormick, called on
part of plaintiff, being duly sworn,
testified as follows:
"Examined by Mr. Liverwright:
"Q. Where do you live? A. Har
risburg, Pennsylvania.
"Q. What is your connection with
the Sonman Shaft Coal Company?
"A. Since 190.1 on I was treasurer
of the Sonman Shaft Coal Company,
since April 1, 1903, and was active in
the handling of its affairs from Har
risburg.
"Q. Did you go to the mines occa
sionally? A. I went out to the mines
frequently. I was in constant com
munication with Mr. Saxman, who
was at that time manager of the mine.
"Q. Who constituted the corpora
tion? A. Mr. Cameron and Mr. Sax
man and myself originally started the
organization. We leased the property
from the Cambria Mining and Manu
facturing Company in 1899, April 29,
I thing the lease is, and then we had
also-a few other stockholders, very
small holders—we owned the bulk
of the stock and were the directors of
the company—and Mr. Cameron and
myself in the same office in Harris
burg looked after the selling of it.
Mr. Saxman operated the mine.
"Q. Do you continue as treasurer up
to this time? A. No, I think I re
signed about 1908, X am not sure of
the exact date.
"Q. You are an officer of the Son
man Coal, the plaintiff, are you? A.
1 am a director now."
Dodged Responsibility
"The theoi. upon which this case
was tried is stated by the Supreme
<'ourt of Pennsylvania in this language:
'The case went to the jury on a claim
Tor damages for failing to furnish an
adequate supply of cars. This was
divided into two parts: (a) Damages
for loss of profit on coal not mined,
because cars were not furnished to
ship it, and (b) damages for the in
creased cost per ton of producing the
coal mined over what the cost per ton
would have been had the cars been
furnished sufficient to ship up to the
actual capacity of the mines.'
"So that this company, which did
not regard a man's life worth more
than S4OO, without having Aheir men
[at work, but on the theory that if
they had worked they could have
mined coal, recovered from the rail
road company $145,830.25. Having
in mind the make up of the company,
I ask what could have been Mr. Mc
' Corniick's motive in the incorpora
tion of that mining company by Mr.
! Cameron, Mr. Saxman and himself,
except that in case of accident, such
as did occur, he would escape indivi
dual liability for the payment of any
verdict that might be recovered
against him."

"I can scarcely believe that a so

slanderous lie. I shall at once consult
counsel and give him and the paper a
reasonable time to make explanation
and apology. It must be made de

was issued or I shall see that the full
consequences of the law are m'cted out.
"Fortunately for me, my whole life

Thieves Rob Store and
Steal Auto Truck to
Carry Off Their Plunder
Special to The Telegraph
Waynesboro, Pa., Oct. 23. Early
this morning thieves broke into the
general store of John J. Miller, in
East Main street, and stole a largo lot
of merchandise and made their es
cape, after stealing an auto truck from
a garage a mile away, but which they
could, not operate successfully. The
Miller store is located in the Odd Pel
lows' building and it is thought the
thieves entered during a meeting of
the lodge and went to the cellar. After
the people had left the building they
went up a stairway to a door leading
to the store room and with an auger
bored holes around the lock and thus
opened the door. They took a dozen
pairs of the best shoes In the storo
and also half a dozen suits of under
wear, several boxes of collars, ten or
twelve dozen neckties, several boxes of
men's hose and a number of shirts,
collar button?, shoe strings. '
Thej' packed the shoes and some of
the other articles in suitcases and
carried them about a mile, to the gar
age of Welty Brothers. They broke
op«n the doors and took out a largo
auto truck, but after running It about
100 yards were unable to keep It go
ing and abandoned it on the highway.
About three weeks ago the hard
ware store of Daniel Itinehart was
robbed and about SIOO worth of guns
and ammunition stolen, under circum
stances similar to the Miller robbery.
The same store was robbed about two
years ago.
