McNeil of Burlington N. J. for the appointment of a recelver for the Union Cast Iron Pipe and Foundry com- pany, which has fourteen plants at dif- ferént points throughout the United States. The company was incorporated about three years ago with an authorized capital of $30,000,000 to make cast fron pipe and foundry work. McNell ‘charges extravance and mis- management. He alleges that the company has been operated more with a regard for the exploiting of the company’s stock In the stock market than tor the practical utility of the company's work; that from fts organization in the spring of 1001 the company's management was dominated by General Samuel E. T. Thomas, whose principal occupation, McNell says, was that of a promotor of companies and exploiter of stock. McNell further charges that since the spring of 101 the company- was dominated by its president, G. B. Hayes, whose associ- ates, he alleged, were financlers and ex- plofters of stocks. It {s asserted that the plant at Buffalo is operated at a loss of 8400000 and that plants at West SBuperior, Bridgeport, South Pittsburg and Newport wers dismantled and rendered useless and that all of these plants were scquired at excessive prices. Jt 1s also charged that for the purpose of exploiting tho stock statements to the public were published showing $1,000,000 surplus, which McNefl claims is not true.

Trigg Shipbuilding company be adjudged a bankrupt, Judge Waddill rendered a de- cision today that the appointment of a re- celver by the chancery. court of the city of Richmond, December 22, 1902, which was the act of bankruptcy complained of in the petition, could not be taken advantage of under the amendment of February 5, 1%8. Judge Waddill holds that the amendment of February 5, 1%3, is not retroactive and could not extend to the appointment of a recelver prior to February b, 1%3, as wi the case in the appointment of a receiver for the Trigg company. It is thought probable that this decision may further complicate the situation in re- spect to the crulser Galveston. ° WABHINGTON, June 20.—Attorney Gen- eral Knox had prepared today a stipulation in the nature of a bond, which on Monday will be filed with Judge Grinnan of the chancery court of Richmond, practically covering the government's interests in the gunboat Galveston. This stipulation or bond, it is asserted, will more than cover the clalms of the creditors against the Trigg company for work done and material used on the ship. After the stipulation is filed it is believed that Judge Grinnan will immediately re- lease the ship to the government. BEGIN NIGHT WORK ON FAIR Contractors Push » Work on Agrical tural Buillding with Three Shifts of Men. ST. LOUIS, June 20.—Night work was begun tonight on the World's Fair Agri- culture bullding. The contractors are run- ning three shifts and declare they wiil con- tinue as long as the need exists. It is not unlikely this example will be followed by other contractors should it become ap- parent that night work is needed to com- plete the bufldings on time. The agricul- ture bullding is the largest on the expo- sition site and was one of the last for which a contract was let, 8o that the con- tractors are obliged to use all the time avallable. About fifty momberl of the Chicago Real Estate board, in charge of a committeo of the St. Louls Real Estate exchange, visited the exposition grounds today. It ‘was their third annual excursion. A tour of the grounds was made In two gondola cars and a locomotive. The visitors left the city tonight. The Chinese government has leased a fourteen-room house in which the higher officials of the Chinese commission will be accommodated during their stay In St. Louls while preparing the bullding and exhibit for China at the exposition. The lease extends to the end of the fair.

WASHINGTON, June 20.—(Special Tele- gram.)—It now seems to be certain that President Roosevelt will call congress in extraordinary session November 0. The ex- tra session will be called for action upon the Cuban treaty. The president has informed congressional visitors recently of his inten- tion to call congress together In exira ses- sion on the date mentioned. This will give congress nearly a month to work in before the date for the regular session. The first Monday in December, fixed by law for the regular session to begin, falls on December 7 this year. By beginning on November 9 there will be plenty of time to dispose of the Cuban tariff matter. The program of the republican leaders in con- gress will be, unless there is a change in thelr present intentions, to permit the dem- ocrats all the opportunity they desire dur- ing the extra session to discuss questions of tariff and reciprocity and kindred sub- jects. After the regular session begins lit- tle opportunity will be allowed and repub- lican leaders and committees will work to- gether to prevent tariff taking up any time or hold any place of importance In legisla- tive business. What the poMcy and atti- tude of the party will be on tarift in the presidential election will depend on future developments and on the position of the democrats next year. Heating Plant for Genon Schools. Plans and specifications for the improve- ment of the heating appartus at the Genoa (Neb.)

Shiras of ‘the United States district court for the morthern district of Towa Is to re- tire on November 1 naturally causes specu- lation as to who may succeed him. The position pays $5,000 per year and as it is a Ifetime job is a very desirable berth. A name quite frequently heard today among Towans as a possible successor of Judge Shiras is that of ex-Speaker David B. Hen- derson. . Another man who is being some- what spoken of here in connection with the judgeship made vacant by Judge Shir: retirement is Representative Lot Thomas of Storm Lake. Mr. Thomas has a fine record as a judiclal officer and friends of his here say that he would be glad to lay aside the worrles of a congressman's life for the calm and unruffied career of a fed- eral judge. Maurice D. O'Connell of Fort Dodge, at present solicitor of the treasury, would not object to the mention of his name in connection with the vacant judge- ship. Colonel Thomas Updegraff of Mc- Gregor 1s also somewhat talked of as a possible successor to Judge Shiras. Ex- Representative Struble of Lemars may also be considered as a formidable candidate for the soon-to-be vacant judgeship. President Recelves Alleged Traitors. President Roosevelt received three callers today who, if they returned to their na- tive country, might be executed for high treason. They were: Prof. Leong Kal Chek, vice president of the Chinese Re- form assoclation; Pow Chee and Charles Yip Yen, who are endeavoring to create a sentiment among Chinamen throughout the world for the establishment In China of a constitutional monarchy. They desired simply to pay their respeots to President Roosevelt. McKinley Monument Money Raised. Secretary Cortelyou left this evening for Canton, O.

The presedt crop conditions are: Winter wheat, rather scant, but improved over last month. There are favorable reports re- garding winter rye, which shows excellent growth. The summer crop, owing to the temperature, is not well developed. Only summer wheat has retained the condition of the previous month. The reports re- garding rye, barley and oats show thelr condition to have declined. The prospects of the potato crop are unfavorable. The tubers have developed frregularly and last month’s rotting has made necessary much new planting. SULTAN WILL NOT ABDICATE Rumor Declared in a Semi-Ofcial Way to Be Maliclons Invention.

MAY HOLD MORE FEUDISTS Authorities Seek to Arrest Alleged Acoes~ sories Bofore tke Fact PROMINENT POLITICIANS DINE HARGIS Marcum Murder Suspects Still Lan- guish in Jail, but Will Be Ac- corded Speedy Trial Before Specinl Court. JACKSON, Ky., June 20.—Since the re- moval of Jett and White to Lexington, and the prospect of another trial in another county beyond the scene of the feud in- | fluence, there is considerable talk here of prosecutions for perjury and bribery. It is stated that a move is on foot to swear out warrants at once for the arrest of men in high places for bribery, perjury | and ‘“as accessory to the Marcum murder before the fact.' The statement by Judge Redwine that he will call a special term of court when he finishes his work in Irvine and Lee coun- ties Is taken as a conclusive step in this direction. The situation is still one of ap- prehension. The foreman of the grand jury that in- dicted Jett and White'has been threafnad and the soldlers were stationed around his house last, night as well as around that of | Haddix, who testified to eeeing Crawford and Tharp, teamsters for Hargls Bros., coming from the Ewen hotel just before the fire was discovered. Anxiety is felt for other witnesses and jurors and the provost marshal will continue holding Jackson under martial law. Still Eat Jail Food. LEXINGTON, Xy, June 20.—Notwith- standing Judge Hargls' request that Jett and White be allowed “extras” at his ex- pense, both men ate the jall breakf: This was visiting day but visitors were not allowed to see the Breathitt county pris- oners. Jafler Wallace says he intends to be pres- ent at every meeting in the jail of every person who calls on Jett or White and will take abeolutely no chances either un polson or collusion with outsiders. He watches all food that goes to them. Judge Hargis is still here. The Breathitt county feud has been the occasion of conferences of prominent poli- ticlans and others today and the last two nights. County Judge James Hargis, who accompanled Jett and White here yester- day, was with friends until last midnight and today and tonight. He remains in Lexington as the guest of John Skain, proprietor of the Leland hotel and a promi- nent politiclan. Hargis is a member of the democratic state central committee, which recently reorganized the local organization. Some of the conferees were trying to get in communication today with people at Cynthiana. While these conferences were in progress Joseph Bruner, a detective for the Lexing- ton & REastern rajlroad, which runs to Jackson, ws proceeding to arrest several visitors from Jackson as accessory before the fact, and was only prevented by B. J. Ewen, who declined to swear out the war- rants. Ewen I8 still a prisoner in the Martin home and doek not venture out of the house, day or night, as there are many in Lexington now who have recently ar- rived trom Jackson. Tonight politiclans of what it known as the “city hall faction” are arrayed against the “insurgents,” or court house faction, which fs now in power, and gave Judge James Hargls a supper at the Leland hotel, City officials were among the hosts, as was Henry Bostwright, recently nominated for treasurer. Among the others present were John Skain, president of the Board of Councllmen; Aldermen E. J. Allen and J. P. Barkley; J. V. Uppington, city solicitor; C. 'W. Miller, magistrate; John Payne, city jallor; John Masner, superintendent of public works; J. McD., Ross, M, Furlong and J. L. Watkins. There is no doubt that the request of | Judge Osborne and the Harrison county officlals that no troops be sent to Cynthiana when Jett and White are placed on trial will be observed unless enough feudists trom Breathitt county should go there to make the situation threatenin Judge Osborne will call a speclal term of court for early next month to try Jett and White. SEEK TO TEST DAMAGE LAW Alleges Fellow Servant Caused. LOB ANGELES, Tune 20.—A case involv- ing a point of law and one which especially concerns raflroads, will come up in the United States cireuit court on June 8. On the face of it the case is a damage suit for $0,000 filed by T. Holmes, a former engi- neer on the Santa Fe, for. personal injuries sustained in a wreck at Franconia Station, Ariz., néarly two years ago. The company will, it is asserted, set up as a defense the “fellow-servant’’ doctrine which makes an employe instéad of the employer, re- sponsible for injuries sustained by a fel- low worker, where the cause can be laid to the carelessness or negligence of one en- gaged In contributory labor. The last legislature amended the law on this point which was held to be favorable to the employer. Holmes' suit was brought under the provisions of the old law and both sides will fight the case, the plaintiff's attorneys desiring to establish a precedent for stmilar cases now pending. About elghteen months ago the Santa Fe limited golug east collided wijy the cor- | responding train westbonnd at Franconia | Btation, Ariz. Beveral lives were lost and many of the passengers and members of the crews of both trains were injured more or less serlously. Among the latter was Holmes, an englneer, now residing in Texas. AGAIN SKIPS BOODLE JURY John A. Lee Reported in Chicago When Time to Testify Comen. 8T. LOUIS, June 20.—Former Lieutenant Governor John A. Lee did not appear be- fore the grand jury today as expected. Circuit Attorney Folk received a telephone message from his brother, Robert E. Lee, saying he had gone to Chicago on business, The report that John H. Carroll, the well known raflroad lobbylst, who is also wanted as a witness in the boodling Investigation, | was also in Chicago gave rise to consider- able speculation around the four courts. Homer R. Mann, a former state represent- ative from Kansas City, and J. A. Fleming, | a local fnsurance man, were the only wit- nesses today. The real cause of Mr. Mann's being subpoenaed was the recelpt of anonymous letters from Chicago by Mr. Folk intimating that he knew something about boodle deals perfected while ho was a member of the house of representatives. This is denled by Mr. Mann. Mr, Fleming told about $5,000 being turned over to J. H. Carroll to promote the in- terests of insurance men at the capital. Mr. Fleming will be recalled and a sum- mons will be {ssued for R. L. Macey, a representative from Ray county. SHOOTERS’ TOURNEY ENDED Davenport Man Ranks High in Last Day's Contest at St. Lou! ST.
