THE A White Season Promised We were repeatedly assured the coming summer was to be marked by gay colors, and now the same emphasis is laid on the fact that white is to rule. The strictly tailored white linen frock is a style that has much in its favor, and worn with the jaunty sailor of the day and embroidered linen parasol will constitute as fresh and charming a summer frock as could be imagined, much better than so much fussiness. The coats as a rule are short, long ones in wash materials a mistake; the pony jacket is newer, but the eton holds its own. Tailors favor a strictly tailored white linen THE SU THE SUMMER GIRL THE SUMMER GIRL. gowns of very elaborate character. Trimming is piled on trimming, plaitings of silk and frills of lace making double adornment. Wide tucks are to be a feature of dresses of soft material, and little fancy coats have decided vogue. These coats are not for warmth, but transparent affairs whose sole excuse is beauty. On the street a woman likes always to wear some little wrap, be it but a fluffy boa, and the transparent coatee of the present gives variety from the ubitious boa. Cape like wraps are trying to push their way forward, but may not win out. shirt waist, but frivolous woman goes in for the frivolousness of the lingerie blouse. In contrast to the tailored linen suit we have afternoon and evening. There is very little change to record in lingerie blouse of 1906. The favorite ones button down the back as last year, the sleeve is very similar. Hats and Other Fashion Matters Hats and Other Fashion Matters Generally a woman looks at her hat squarely in front and at her behatted self from that point of view, when really that is the least important to consider. Most of the people that are to gaze upon your headgear will view it from the side or back. To-day the milliners seem to realize this fact, for to-day most of the trimming is piled in the back and curls up from the side. A DEMURE MODEL. One sees not a few plumes coming out from one side, falling over the hair at the back and then mounting on the other side. Yards and yards of ribbon adorn the back bandeau, and flowers are massed high in the rear. Hats this season are designed with reference to the prevailing empire FIRE IN CHURCHES Chief Shaw, speaking of the practical operation of the law for the better protection of audiences in theaters and public halls from fire, remarks that while our churches are exempt from its provisions, as well as from monthly inspection, there is greater danger from fire or panic in many of our houses of worship than there is in most of the licensed places. This is frank and outspoken, though it isn't a new revelation. It is a fair Perhaps the chief difference lies in the hand-work, less openwork and more of what is called filled work, solid French embroidery. This is very pretty on the sheer stuffs employed, gives pleasing contrast. The materials most in use are mull, Persian lawn, batiste and very fine ones are made of handkerchief linen. Such pretty things may be fashioned of kerchiefs. A woman of our acquaintance took a fine lace-trimmed mull handkerchief and made a charming deep collar by cutting it diagonally across and joining the back seam in such a way as to give a pointed back and front. This suggestion may THE FASHION OF THE TWENTIETH CENTURY prove welcome just now, when an enfor fort is made for the low neck even on street blouse. Chemisettes and cuffs may be made of fine kerchiefs, and many a lace treasure is to-day turned from its former use to help out in trimming. Sometimes the kerchief need not be cut, may be cunningly disposed without this sacrifice. Shadow embroidery is effective on sheer material, and as I understand is not very difficult to make. Crochet lace of every kind has been restored to favor with a vengeance, and one sees beautiful turn-over collars and cuffs of Irish crochet. We would not be interpreted as meaning openwork embroidery is entirely out, such by no means the case. It is extensively used for waists again this summer and quite the thing for coat sets. Heavy Danish cut-work or Hedebo (Hay-the-bow) embroidery, is very effective on outside door wraps. styles come in delicate shades supposed to be particularly suited to the lady who affects the empire mode. But, alas, not all empire gowned maids and matrons are pink and white beauties, like such the "females" of by-gone days when short waist and clinging hair had reign. In the good old days, we are told, all women looked like the pictured women on the fazs, creamy skinned, cheeks pink-flushed; and in memory of what the ladies of the empire period were reputed, the milliner to-day offers as accompaniment of the revived fashions hats in the most delicate shades, lovely pinks and impossible blues. And the only comfort held out to poor creatures lacking pink and white complexion, is go and get one. We are told not to try the drug store, either, but to look in diet carefully, and assured in time the better complexion will reward. In the meanwhile empire styles may vanish and empire millinery. But there are some fetching and becoming all-black hats to be had, made of frilled hair, or finest chip, or softest horsehair; and a fluffy black hat almost anyone can wear. The burnt straws are charitable, too, to an uncertain coloring, and are the height of fashion. The very rastellon oldrose is more trying, to be chosen by the few rather than the many. A light colored chip trimmed with one's most favorable color would be modish and attractive. Without doubt there is a generous variety to choose from this season. Some one says in regard to the making of a dress, when in doubt choose the empire; which advice we do not hold very good. Unless the gown is made by an artist, an empire is very apt to look like a night gown and the wearer to present a rather dragged appearance, as though not rigged out for public gaze. question why church congregations ought not to be protected from the dangers of fire and panic as well as theater audiences.—Boston Herald.

If the lawyers acted in good faith in settling it, an explanation is due, and if they proved re-creant to their trust, they should be exposed and condemned.-Xenia (O.) Observer. THE SMEL Of Burning Flesh, the Twitching of the Bodies, and the GROANS OF THE Senator S. H. Piles' telegram intimating to the Seattle folk that he, Piles, stood ready and willing, if they would but suggest it, to bring pressure to bear on the war department to prevent Negro troops from being sent to Ft. Lawton is just what might be expected of the man. As Sam Piles attorney at law in Seattle, he never had anything but the "bull con" about Negro troops. Notwithstanding the fact that he was the attorney for the Pacific Coast company that employed a number of colored men, yet Mr. Piles seemed always afraid of the colored employees of the company, lest perhaps the black on their skin might rub off if he got too close to them. The citizens of Seattle do not give a "tinker's dam" whether the garrison at Ft. Lawton be a black or white one, and The Republican is a hostile to know why Senator Piles should see their bination or otherwise to disturb their minds one way or the other on the subject—Seattle (Wash.) Republican. When black soldiers were first ordered to Ft. Douglas, Utah, the citizens of Salt Lake City boiled over with indignation and the representatives in congress from that state as a unit protested to the war department in no uncertain language and demanded of the war department that the order be rescinded, but it was not. The day the black boys reached the city the death of the whole of the 12 apostles of the Mormon church could not have caused a more dejected look to come over the faces of her citizenship than the presence of those black soldiers as they tramped through the streets to the fort for a two years' stay. Days and months passed and the "black Graphic Analysis of Springfield, Mo., Mob. There were none of the better class of citizens there, except on the outer edge of the mob. The controlling spirit of the yelling mass was not the "holy" one of regard for the man and the woman. The Negroes and exultation at the opportunity of committing crime under the guise of righteousness. In the sheriff's private residence the character of the mob was plainly indicated by its conduct. Men pulled Mrs. Horner, the sheriff's wife, (white) from her bed and demanded that she show them the way into the jail. She swooned and was left lying on the floor, her child crying hysterically by her side. The mob gleefully danced the pine dining room furniture, and stole Mrs. Horner's purse, containing $15, and a shotgun belonging to the sheriff—Capt. J. J. Mayes (white.) ```markdown ``` brutes" neither ate the babies nor outraged the women, in fact the outraged community slowly woke up to the realization that the black soldiers were a hundred times more docile and orderly than the white soldiers, and public sentiment took a sudden change and that, too, for the better. In the meantime the Spanish-American war broke out and the black soldiers of Ft. Douglas were ordered to Cuba. The same citizens that had so bitterly opposed their coming cheered them to the echo as they marched away, not because they were glad to be rid of them, but for their patriotism. The record the black soldiers made while in Cuba is too well known to be recounted at this time. But finally the war was all over and the same black soldiers were ordered back to Ft. Douglas, Utah. On their arrival at Salt Lake City, not only the city folk, but every man, woman and child for miles in the surrounding country were present to welcome them home. The soldiers were not eat during their former stay in Salt Lake City strewed the streets with flowers on which the soldiers marched and those of the women that had not been outraged by those black brutes, as they were called, served dainty lunches to them, while the men made heart-feeling speeches welcoming them home again. Senator Piles doubtless is not a close student of the daily press or he would not have wanted to interfere with the order of the war department that a regiment of colored troops occupy Ft. Lawton for the next two years—Seattle (Wash.) Republican. Conference a Grand Success. Piqua, O.—The conference of the Springfield district of the northern Ohio conference of the great A. M.

Glimere, the aggressive and tireless worker for the cause of Christ and the church, is the presiding elder. He has in circulation beautiful programs (printed by The Gazette) and all is moving on splendidly, just as anticipated. The veteran pastor, Rev. Dr. Coleman, and his congregation are taking care of the conference nicely in every way. More anon. THE SMELL Of Burning Flesh, the Twitching of the Bodies, and the GROANS OF THE INNOCENT MEN Was Pleasing to the Flandish Missouri Mob—Music to Their Ears — A Graphic Description! Special to The Gazette. Springfield, Mo.—In order that your readers may know the real inwardness of the terrible ordeal we passed through here recently when that barbarous mob of 3,000 white brutes battered in the jail and took therefrom the three innocent Afro-Americans, Coker, Duncan and Allen, all charged with crime, to the light tower in the public square which is surmounted by a sheet iron figure of the Goddess of Liberty, and lynched and burned them in the most brutal manner possible. I send you the following: The rope by which Coker was hanging naked broke first and the body fell into the fire, sending up a shower of sparks. The yells of the mob showed that they enjoyed this diversion, and the men emitted another volley of profanity which would have shocked a river pilot. There was disappointment, for he had apparently left the fire did not kick or struggle did not suit the French taste of the mob. The victim's clothes were first saturated with coal oil. For a long time Duncan's body slowly swayed over the fire, his limbs contracting and extending slowly, at times assuming postures grimly grotesque. This afforded pleasing diversion to the mob. They had yearned all night for such a sight. It was 11 p. m. when this hellish orgy began. Boys presided over the cooking process. Armed with barrel staves, they watched about the edge of the fire, and if a piece of flesh or a part of the body fell out of the fire, they pushed it back. The head on Duncan's body, with the flesh burned to a crisp, rolled out of the fire. There was not enough fuel to make a fire high enough to entirely envelop the men. The slow contortions of the muscles contracted by the heat were ghastly. A leg would contract, while its mate would straighten out toward the flames. The crowd was unwilling to believe that the victims could not still suffer. Men would take burning brands and hold them against remaining parts of the body, uttering unprintable things and reveling in the stench of burning flesh. Boys of 10 and 12 years of age climbed about in the framework of the tower and waved their hats to the crowd. They were abashed to cheer. Men and boys swore simply to be braved of their own oaths and this in Missouri early Easter morn—not in the darkest part of Africa. These were supposedly civilized whites. The mob then went again to the jail for Will Allen and Bus Cain, charged with killing an old soldier. The latter, the guilty one according to Allon, escaped. When Allen found that resistance was useless, he declared that he would walk. This he did, with head up and defiance of fate depicted in his coal-black face. He was escorted to the square by a smaller crowd. He did not reach the place of death until 2 o'clock Easter Sunday morning. "Are you Will Allen?" asked the leader of the mob. "I am," said Allen. "Have you anything to say?" "Only that I did not kill Rouark." "Make him tell who did," shouted a chorus of voices. "Bus Cain killed Rouark," said Allen. "I had nothing to dc with it." "Hang him," again roared the mob. Allen showed no fear. He stood where he could smell the burning remains of Duncan and Coker. A rope was placed about his neck and it was attached to the ralling upon which he was standing. The mob yelled tauntingly at him to jump and show that he was game. He took them at their word and jumped out from the stand. His neck broke with a crack, plainly heard well out into the crowd. The rope broke and, turning a somersault, the land landed in the fire. His convulsive kicks and contortions sent embers and charred remains of the other victims flying in all directions. Reaching into the flames, the mob dragged out the body, tied the rope together and again drew the body up. It twitched for a while and became limp. The fire was replenished and the same orgy of burning was gone through with again. The mob invoked the curse of the Almighty upon anything and everything they happened to think of, but chiefly upon the law and its officers. Damn the law" had become a slagman, and the law would not destroy the law was a fit object for work of that nature. It lingered about until the fire had consumed the body of Allen as well as the other two victims, and dispersed about daylight. It was full daylight before the police considered it safe to show themselves and clear up the debris left by the awful night's work, the ashes were taken to an undertaking establishment to await an inquest.

WHEN GOING TO PITTSBURG T should say, select the R. R. that has the greatest number of fast trains, has the shortest line from Cleveland and the road that has trains every daz, not daily except Sunday, and the road that uses safety block signals, has double track all the way, that charges only 50c for a parlor ear seat, that runs a cafe club car, in which you only pay for what you order. If I took a sleeping car I would not wish to pay more than $1.50 for a double berth, with no change of cars, and let me pass through Youngstown and along the banks of the picturesque Beaver and Ohio Rivers into Pittsburg City. Then it’s the Erie R. R. that [ select, for it gives me the above and ‘even ‘more, with seven trains every day. They sell tickets at No. 9 Eu- clid avenue, in the city of Cleveland, Sa a eee Great expectation seems to center around the result in Obio“of the re- cently enacted two.copt rate law, re- dueing passenger fates from threo to a two-cent per mile basis.

THOUSANDSOFBUILDINGSDESTROYED AND HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE ARE DEAD The State Insane Asylum at Agnew was Demolished, Many Inmates Being Buried in the Ruins—Reports of Ruin Come from Many Other Cities and Small Towns in California. San Francisco, Cal.-Earthquakes and fire on Wednesday put nearly half of San Francisco in ruins. At least 200 persons were killed, a thousand injured and the property loss will exceed $100,000,000. Thousands are homeless and destitute and all day long streams of people were feeling from the stricken districts to places of safety. It was 5:13 in the morning when a terrific earthquake shock shook the whole city and surrounding country. One shock apparently lasted two minutes, and there was almost immediate collapse of filmy structures all over the city. The water supply was cut off and when fires broke out in various sections there was nothing to do but let the buildings burn. Telegraph and telephone communication was shut off for a time. The Western Union was put completely out of business and the Postal was the only company that managed to get a wire out of the city. About 10 o'clock even the Postal was forced to suspend. Electric power was stopped and street cars did not run. Railroads and ferry boats also ceased operations. Fires raged all day and the fire department was powerless to do anything except dynamite buildings threatened. All day long explosions shook the city and added to the terror of the inhabitants. Following the first shock there was another within five minutes, but not nearly so severe. Three hours later there was another slight quake. Reports from districts outside of San Francisco indicate widespread damage. San Jose, 50 miles south, lost many buildings and from 15 to 20 persons were killed. The annex of the Vendome hotel collapsed and fires broke out. Stanford university and Palo Alto suffered greatly. At Stanford many of the handsome buildings were demolished and two persons were killed. One of them was Julius R. Hanna, of Bradford, Pa., and the other was Otto Guts, a fireman. So many people were injured in the Palo Alto hospital with bruises, cuts and internal injuries, all California students. The court house at Redwood City and other buildings collapsed. Menlo Park, Burlingame and other fashionable places suffered greatly. News comes from Niles, a small town about 15 miles from San Jose, stating that the earthquake demolished the state insane asylum at Agnew, near San Jose, burying many of the inmates in the ruins. The sheds over the Southern Pacific long wharf on San Francisco Bay have completely collapsed. Many of the bunkers fell into the bay, carrying with them thousands of tons of coal. The long wharf was one of the most important shipping points about the bay and freight traffic will be interrupted greatly. As a result of the breaking of the mains of the Spring Valley Water Co. the town of San Mateo was flooded. It was owing to the broken mains that the fire gained such headway in San Francisco. The fire swept down the streets so rapidly that it was practically impossible to save anything in its way. It reached the Grand opera house in Mission street and in a moment had burned through the roof. The Metropolitan Opera Co. from New York had just opened its season there and all the scenery and costumes were soon reduced to ashes. From the opera house the fire leaped from building to building, levelling them to the ground in quick succession. The Call editorial and mechanical departments were destroyed in a few minutes and the flames leaped across Stevenson street toward the 15 story stone and iron Claus Spreckels building, which with its lofty dome is the most notable edifice in San Francisco. It was completely gutted. The Parrott building, in which were located the chambers of the state supreme court, the lower floors being devoted to an immense department building, the 15 story walls were not all destroyed. A little further down Market street the Academy of Sciences, the Jennie Flood building and the History building burned like so much tinder. Sparks carried across the wide street ignited the Phelan building and the army headquarters of California were burned. Washington, D. C.—Secretary Taft on Wednesday told the senate committee on inter-oceanic canals that the question of the type of canal must be determined at once or Chief Engineer Stevens will be compelled to suspend work. He did not attempt to discuss the engineering or technical questions, but said that he already is committed to the look type, as recommending the history of the branch of consulting engineers. He said that if congress does not settle the question the president would adopt the minority plan. Voliva Is Enjoined. Chicago, Ill.—Following the filing of a bill to set aside the conveyance of property in Zion City valued at $21,000,000, Judge Wright, of the circuit court, on Wednesday granted an injunction restraining Wilbur G. Voliva and others from interfering with or preventing John Alexander Dowie from going to Zion City and remaining there or entering his house. The injunction also gives Dowie the right to bar the tabernacle on alternate days, and his opponents were enjoined from doing anything to affect title to property. THE GAZETTE,CLEVELAND.

Nearing the bay, the waters of which did the firemen good service, along the docks the fire took the Rialto building, a handsome skyscraper, and converted scores of solid business blocks into smouldering piles of bricks. Banks and commercial houses, supposed to be fireproof, though not of modern build, burned quickly and the roar of the flames could be heard even on the hills which were out of the danger zone. Here many thousands of people congregated and viewed the awful scene. Great sheets of flames rose high in the heavens, or rushed down some narrow street, joining many between the sidewalks. Four of them were shot by soldiers for looting. The soldiers have orders to shoot without warning any person acting in a suspicious manner. The city hall has been burned and the Hall of Justice is threatened. Measures have been taken for the care of destitute. They will be fed and protected in Golden Gate park and the squares. All efforts to prevent the fire from reaching the Palace and Grand hotels were unsuccessful and both were completely destroyed, together with all their contents. All of San Francisco's best play houses, including the Majestic, Columbia, Orpheum and Grand opera house, are a mass of ruins. The earthquake demolished them for all practical purposes and the fire completed the work of demolition. The scene at the Mechanics' Pavilion during the early hours of the morning up until noon, when all the injured and dead were removed because of the threatened destruction of the building by fire, was one of indescribable sadness. Sisters, brothers, wives and sweethearts searched eagerly for some missing dear one. Thousands of persons hurriedly went through the building inspecting the on which the sufferers lay, in the hope that they would find some loved one that was missing. The front of the Bailey & Lacoste building on Clay street fell in and three men and seven horses were killed. An area of thickly covered ground of eight square miles has been burned over and there is no telling when the fire will under control. At 10 o'clock last night it looked as if the entire city would be burned. The Associated Press men are trying to get matter to Oakland by boat, but they are very uncertain. The government is furnishing tugs, but the confusion is so great that they cannot be relied upon. It will be impossible to send full details for several days. From the Cliff house comes word that the great pleasure resort and show place of the city, which stood in the foundation of solid rock, has been swept into the sea. Not a thing stands to tell where the monster stone building stood. It has been leveled to the foundation and only the rock lining the sea coast remains intact. In the northern part of the down town section of the city the fire swept around the hall of justice and communicated to Chinatown, tence proceeding westward into the heart of that colony. It then began rapidly eating its way southward. Night added to the sky, the horror and as dawn approached the sky was illuminated in all directions. As the flames spread into the residence district people left their homes and fled to the parks and squares. A series of rather severe earthquake shocks at 7 p. m. increased the terror. At 7 o'clock the fire had swept from the south side, of the town into the western addition and was burning houses at Golden Gate avenue and Octavia street. This result was reached after almost the entire southern district had been converted into a blackened waste. In this quarter were hundreds of factories, wholesale houses and many business firms, in addition to the factories. On the north side, the fire was not making such rapid headway as in the western addition, where there is a limited water supply available. The ferry boats resumed running from Oakland, and thousands of homeless and panic-stricken people are leaving the city and seeking shelter in Oakland and other suburbs. Nearly every famous landmark that has made San Francisco famous has been laid in ruins or burned to the The Company Played Favorites Milwaukee, Wis.-Definite charges that owners of deferred dividend policies in the Northwestern Mutual Life Insurance Co. have been made to suffer for the benefit of the annual dividend policyholders was the most sensational matter developed at the insurance investigation Wednesday. Another interesting point was that the policyholders taken into consideration in the allowance of dividends has been increased since 1899 nearly 50 per cent., this charge in 1899 having been 8.5 per cent., against 12.5 per cent. since 1904. Dismissed the Writ. New York. — Justice Greenbaum on Wednesday dismissed the writ of hebeas corpus which was issued to secure the release of George W. Perkins, the banker, who was arrested a few weeks ago on complaint that he had given funds of the New York Life Insurance Co. as a contribution to the republican campaign fund. The General of the Jesuits Die The General of the Judges Dies. Rome, Italy—Father Louis Martini was born as the "Black Pope," died Wednesday. He had been suffering from a cancer ground. Never has the fate of a city been more disastrous. For three miles along the water front buildings have been swept clean, and the blackened beams and great skeletons of factories and offices stand silhouetted against a background of flame that is slowly spreading over the entire city. Los Angeles, April 19.—A long distance telephone message from Salinas at 11 o'clock last night gave the following information: One hundred and twenty bodies have been taken out of the Agnew insan asylum and there are probably 150 mortuaries in the ruins. The magnificent bodies of Eight dead Italians were taken out of an Italian hotel at San Jose. At that place the Presbyterian church, St. Patrick's cathedral and the high school were destroyed. The new hall of justice at San Jose, was completed at a cost of $300,000, was demolished. All but two of the university buildings at Stanford are in ruins. Salinas, Cal., April 19.—At 5:15 o'clock Wednesday morning three shocks of earthquake shook Salinas, lasting respectively five, three and 42 seconds. They came from the northeast and southwest. The damage is $2,500,000. No lives were lost in Salinas. The beekeers' sugar factory, three miles from town, was destroyed, causing damage of $1,500,000. The high school building was wrecked. Several stores lost their entire stocks. At the Delmont hotel three chimneys fell through the roof, killing a bridal couple and a hotel servant and injuring several other persons. At Hollister, Granger's warehouse was destroyed, Mrs. Griffith was killed and her husband became crazed on account of the shock. A telegram from Sacramento reports that three miles of railroad sank out of sight as a result of the earthquake and all wires were taken with it. Anton there were several cars burned on the main line, blocking the trains. Sacramento, Cal., April 19.—Dr. Stone, superintendent of the Napa state hospital, telephones the governor's office that an automobile has arrived there with news that Santa Rosa is ruined and that between 200 and 300 persons are killed. Washington, April 19.—President Roosevelt last night received a telegram from Gov. Pardee, of California, in response to the president's telegraph inquiry sent early in the day. The governor's message follows: “Sacramentooo, Cal. “To the President.—Owing to the interruption of telegraphic communications, the extent of the disaster in San Francisco is not well known here, but no doubt calamity is very serious. People of California appreciate your prompt inquiry and offer of assistance. State troops doing patrol duty and if federal assistance is needed will call on you.” Oakland, Cal., April 19.—It is reported that the mint in San Francisco is ablaze and from the outside/indications it will be impossible to save it. The fire is increasing in violence. It is spreading in all directions in both the business and residence quarters. It is reported that while a building was being baked up with a dynamite a fire broke out inside it held by The Terminal hotel at the water front and Market street fell and buried 20 persons under the debris. They were incinerated and there is no possibility of learning their identity. The city hall, which was partly wrecked, is a mile and a half from the water front. It was an imposing structure with a dome 150 feet high. The building covers about three acres and cost more than $7,000,000. RELATIVE TO THE PACKERS' CASE. President Roosevelt Sends a Message to Congress. Washingtonto, D. C.—In a special message delivered to congress on Wednesday President Roosevelt declares that the result of the recent trial of the "beef packers" in Chicago was a "miscarriage of justice" and that the interpretation placed by Judge Humphrey on the will of congress "is such as to make that will absolutely abortive." The message, which is most sensational in character, is based largely on a letter to the president from Attorney General Moody, in which the attorney general reviews the proceedings of the case of the government against the beef packers. The president says it is clear that no criticism attaches to Commissioner Garfield. He refers sharply, however, to the decision of Judge Humphrey, saying that congress cannot have foreseen such a decision and that he can hardly believe that the ruling of Judge Humphrey will be followed by other judges. He declares that such interpretation of the law as that placed on it by Judge Humphrey "comes measurably near making the law a farce," and he recommends that congress pass a declaratory act stating its real intention. The president also requests congress to confer upon the government, by statute, the same right of appeal, in criminal cases, which the defendant now enjoys, where the merits of the case have not been determined. Congress. Washington.—On the 18th the house passed the bill extending the national irrigation law to Texas. The senate's session was short and unimportant. May Fight the Ice Trust. Cleveland, O.—"If complaint is made that the prices of ice in Cleveland are being controlled by $ trust or combination, I will investigate the matter and institute necessary proceedings. Or if I learn that there is ground for such proceedings I will take the action for formal complaint or for formal complaint." County Prosecutor McMahon made the foregoing statement Wednesday when asked what action he would take if the butchers, grocers and other large users of ice appealed to the courts to prevent the proposed increase. Cincinnati Promises Aid. Cincinnati, O.—The chamber of commerce on Wednesday sent a telegram to the mayor of San Francisco tendering sympathy and asking information as to the assistance needed. Acting Mayor Pfaff sent a similar message. Voted for a $100,000,000 increase. Albany, N. Y.—The stockholders of the New York Central & Hudson River Railroad Co. met in this city Wednesday and voted to increase the capital stock of the company from $150,000,000 to $250,000,000.
