Bring on some of your mistakeless paragons who find it so easy to criticise the papers and we’ll give them the chance of their lives to find out whether they are really human, Says the Granite Falls Tribune: “Your Dad over in Anoka thinks that it is time to quit fooling and elect a Republican governor next time and it is well that he has come to his senses in this regard for had he stayed with the loyal bunch that stuck to the Princeton man some years ago the thing might have been to his liking now.” GELEBRATION JULY 5TH WILL BRING BIG GROWD [Continued from Fisst Page.] of 4 seconds for the run, uncoupling the hose and putting on the nozzle. ‘The Bemidji band has rounded into form very rapidly, under the direction of Prof. Harry Masten, and, twenty strong, they will furnish music all day.

Cincinnati, July 2—Fourteen fam- illes of terror stricken men, women and children were barely saved from death in a four-story tenement house here. Patrolman Henry Lowenstine herofcally rushed through the dense smoke to the top floor and carrled down. Mrs. Otto Kaplan and five chil- dren. Mrs. Sarah Cohen and five children and Mrs. Reuben Lipsky, with five children clinging to her dress and gasping for breath, were saved by firemen. This is the thirty-first Incendiary fire within the last six months. A strange man, supposed to be the pyromaniac, was seen emerg- ing from the basement before the fire. The loss was insignificant. STRIKE ORDER DER IS OBEYED Practically All Union Mills of Tin Plate Company Tled Up. Pittsburg, July 2.—Reports received here show that the strike of the Amal- gamated Association of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers as a result of the “open shop” order is effective in prac- tically all of the union mills of the American Sheet and Tin Plate com- pany, a subsidiary of the United States Steel corporation. The strik- ers, numbering 7,000, to 10,000 in Penn- sylvania, Ohio and West Virginia, have not held any meetings as yet and the company has made no an- nouncement regarding the Importa’ tion of strikebreakers.

New York, July 2—The American Sugar Refining company, six of its directors and two other individuals were indicted by a federal grand jury on a charge of conspiracy in restraint of trade. The individuals indicted are Wash- ington B. Thomas, president of the American Sugar Refining company; Arthur Donner, Charles H. Senff and John H. Parsons of New York; John Mayer of Morristown, N, J., and George H. Frazier of Philadelphia, all of whom are directors of the com- pany. Indictments also were found against Gustave E. Kissel and Thomas JOHN E. PARSONS. B. Harnett, counsel for Adolph Segal. There were fourtecen counts in the indictments. The indictments charge conspiracy in restraint of trade ond violation of the Sherman anti-trust law. The de- fendants will answer to the indict- ments in court next Tuesday. The section of the law under which the Indictments were found provides as penalties a fine of not more than $5,000 or imprisonment for not more than ono year, or both, in the case of the individuals and a fine of not more than $5,000 in the case of a corpora- tion. Thé accused men are all prom- inent In financlal circles. Events Leading to Indictments. The thread of events leading up to the indictments may be traced back to 1896, when Adolph Segal of Phila- delphia sold to the American Sugar Refining company a sugar refinery which he had built and for a time op- erated at Camden, N. J. Some years later Segal took over the old Penn- sylvania Sugar Refining company of Phlladelphia, which had suspended business in 1898. By 1903 Segal had a new plant nearly completed and was ready to compete in sugar refining. Meantime, however, he had engaged extensively in other real estate promo- tions and became pressed for funds. Just at this time Gustav Kissell, a Wall street broker, turned up with an offer to secure for Segal a loan of $1,125,000, which was accepted. It afterwards developed that the loan came from the treasury of the Amer- ican Sugar Refining company, but Segal clalms that at the time he did not know this. To secure the loan for his real es- tate operations Segal entered into a bond with Kissel by which the bor- rower turned over, along with other security, 26,000 of the 50,000 shares of the " Pennsylvania Refining company and agreed that the sugar securities should be put In a voting trust, which gave Kissel, or whoever he represent- ed, control of Segal’s sugar company. The new controlling interests in the Pennsylvania Sugar Refining com- pany forthwith elected a new board of directors and this board soon after- wards passed a resolution that the Sexal refinery should not be operated at that time. Segal also borrowed heavily from the Real Estate Trust company, with whom was deposited the securities for the so called sugar trust loan. President Hipple of the Real Estate Trust company had been made custodian of these securities. The trust company became .involved hopelessly and suspended. President Hipple committed suicide. © George H. Earle, receiver for the Real Estate Trust company, recently brought sult against the American Sugar Refining company to recover $30,000,000 for alleged damages by the closing down of the Segal refinery. After the case was brought to trial a compromise was reached out of court, but the detalls of this settlement bave not been made public.

"EW CASUALTIES OCCUR IN QUAKE Little Loss of Life in Latest Italian Disaster. RECALLS GREAT CALAMITY District Affected Is the Same as That Devastated by the Visitation of Last December and the Panic Stricken Residents Flee From the Scene in Great Alarm as Soon as the First 8Shock Occurs. Messina, Sicily, July 2.—Earth shocks both here and at Regglo cre- ated a great panlo among the people of these two citles. Walls of houses not completely demolished in the vis- itation of December were shaken down and the inhabitants of the towns rushed from the streets to- wards the open country. A woman and child caught under the wreckage sustained serious fin- juries, the woman subsequently dying. The first shock was followed by an explosion like the roar of cannon and lasted between eight and ten seconds. It is said that this quake was of greater severity than the fatal one of the night of Dec. 28. The wooden houses and huts erected for the ac- commodation of the people seemed to be thrown from one side to another. Cries fllled the air as the people fled into the road. As on the night of Dec. 28 the first shock was followed by a circular movement of the ground. Five min- utes later there came another quake, accompanied by further roarings. This completed the destruction. The remains of wrecked houses collapsed and the entire district was covered by a dense cloud of dust. Poughkeepsle, N. Y., July 2.—Just before the big five-cornered intercol- legiate rowing race between Syra- cuse, Cornell, Columbia, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania the question upper- most in the minds of the crowds seems to be, “Can Syracuse repeat her winning performance of last year?” According to the Syracuse students, who have gathered here in large numbers to see their men row, there isn’t the least doubt abont their ability to do so. Probably the *“dark horse” in to- day’s race is Wisconsin, always con sidered a formidable contender for in- tercollegiate honors in rowing, despite the fact that it has never come out better than second. The Western col- lege has a large undergraduate body to draw upon—this year there are over 5,000 students enrolled at Mad- ison—and Ten Eyck brought here a squad of twenty-five husky, able look- ing oarsmen, who have been rowing well together and have shown signs of individual skill and strength. It must be admitted frankly that Columbia does not look good today to the rowing expert. There have been too many changes in the crew to de- velop the best there is in the men. In Cornell's favor are the splendid way in which the men have been rowing together in practice and the long list of carnelian and white vic- torfes. This year's crew fs light, how- ever, and doubts are expressed that the men can stand the strain.

OLD BUDGET IS EFFECTIVE Result of Failure of Cuban Senate to Pass Appropriations. Havana, July 2—As a result of the failure of the Cuban senate to pass the budget President Gomez issued a decree making effective Governor Ma- goon’s budget of 1908-9, amounting to $24,285,000. The deficiency to cover the cost of the army and other in- creased expenses of the republic, amounting to nearly $10,000,000, will be supplied by presidential decree. This will practically repeat the con- ditions of the last year of the Palma regime, when, In default of a budget, the decrees to this same end Issued by President Palma were declared to violate the constitution and precipi- tated the revolution of August, 1906.
