Kansas City Women Bide, Ban
. isters Id Dry Qocfli Store
To Get Goods. !
Kansas" City,- Ma, August 27. A
good deal of excitement was created at
the August clearance sale at John Tay
lor's dry goods store whea-n crowd of
women making for a lower' floor where
some handbags were on sale at eu
priced took to the banisters and slid
down.
The stairways and elevators as well
as the aisles downstairs were packed as
a result of the advertisement that great
things, were doing in handbags.
The women entered the store on Bal
timore avenue. The entrace fljor on
Main street, where the bargain was on
sale. They saw the stairway was full
and Women were struggling an' sway
ing in a congrested mass, unabfc either
to advance or retreat.
"Come on," a leader cried, there's
no getting through there."
As she spoke she gathered up her
skirts, gave a quick spring ant. landed
astride the banister. There wa ( a flash
of stockings and lace and t le next
instant she was on the ftoo; below,
fighting her way toward the counter.
One after another the bolder t.nes fol
lowed until the banister wa; full of
sliding women. One after another they
landed at the bottom in little, shrieking
heaps and plunged into the struggling
mass in front of the counter.
Similar scens were enacted through
out the store. Before a counter where
dress goods were on sale two women
fought over a bolt of cloth until a pa
trolman took it away from them.
"Officer, make her let go," on-of the
women screamed.
Each had seized the same piece of
cloth nod then were pulling in oposifie
directions.
At the hand-bag counter the usual
bargain tactics were resorted to. A
woman would seize four or five bags and
hold them all until she had made a
choice. Some women were accompani
ed by their husbands and it was their
part to "holdout" desirable-looking ar
tides until the wife decided which was
the most desirable. Then the rest
would be dumped back on the counter.
Growers Of Virginia And North
Carolina Want 15
Cents.
Greensboro, N. C Aug. 26 The Con
vention to Tobacco Growers of North
Carolina and Virginia agreed yesterday
to pool the 1911 tobacco crop of
the two States. It was announced that
the partial report of the "resolutions
committee, favoring the pooling of the
crop, was unanimously adopted.
It is learned that it is the plan of the
delegates, representing more .than 50
percent, of the tobacco growers of the
two States, to put the crop through
prizeries and store it in warehouses un
til a price of 15 cents a pound can be
obtained.
Members of the union are confident
of winning against the American To
bacco Company, as it is figured that the
company, instead of having sufficient
supply for three years, without uBing
the 1911 crop, has only enough to last
until the present crop is marketable.
