Illinois Attorney General Will BE Busy

SPRINGFIELD, Ills, April 11.-Secre-
tary of State Henrichsons report to At
torney General Moloney shows the
number Of incorporated companies in
this state who had failed to make
proper report according to the pro-
visions Of the recently enacted anti
trust law in Illinois, together with a
list of each incorporated company, with
name, amounts and location. The list
comprises over $4,000 companies, and
under the law it is now the duty of the
attorney general to at once commence
suit against each company who failed
to make the proper report to the secre-
tary of state. Some 10000 made full
reports, while several thousand took out
certificates of dissolution rather than
make the report. The attorney general
will be very busy for many months
after these suits are instigated.

The Weather In March Did Great DAM
age, Especially to Garden Truck.
SPRINGFIELD, Ills, April 1.-THE
weekly crop bulletin issued by the Illi-
nois weather bureau for the week end
ing April 10 says:
The weather conditions from March
to "a were unusually favorable for
farm work, and considerable progress
was made in planting and seeding.
Crops were never in more promising
condition until the severe cold wave of
the 25th and goth, which caused serious
damage to all the growing crops. Re-
ports conflict as to the damage to
wheat. This crop has been damaged,
but to what extent it is too early to
tell. The most discouraging re-
ports come from Schuyler, Cal
houn, Knox, Gallatin and McDonough
counties. Some correspondents report
that wheat that was jointed was killed,
and in some sections it is turning yel-
low. The dry high winds of the past
week affected the crop injuriosly. In
the central and southern counties oats
are reported damaged, and large acre
age has been resown. In the the north
ern counties the damage does not seem
to be so great. Warmer weather will
greatly benefit all vegetation. Rye is
reported in good condition. Potatoes
will have to be replanted. Garden
truck was all killed. EARLY fruit is re-
ported killed. Smaller fruits, it is now
thought, will make full crop.

ENID, O. T., April 1.-THE early
accounts of the attempted holdup on
the Rock Island road were somewhat
erroneous. The affair occurred between
Pond Creek and Round Pond, at about
1l:2O p. M, and as a result one of the
robbers is dead, another captured, and
another seriously wounded, while two
escaped. The train was in charge of
Conductor Joe Read and Engineer
Whitmire. The train left Caldwell
about an hour late. and the first stop
was at Pond Creek, and it was at this
point the robbers concealed themselves
in the tender of the engine, and when
just over the Salt Fork creek, about two
miles from Round Pond, where their pals
were stationed near the track, where the
attempt was made to make the holdup.
Guard Jake Harmon, who was on the
train, discovered the men before cross
ing the river, and he watched them to
make sure Of their purposes and as they

The train slowed up and the robbers
jumped off, but one ran only a few
steps and dropped dead. Their pals,
who were stationed on break near the
track, commenced firing and literally
perforated the baggage car and when it
pulled into Enid it looked as though it
had been through a musketry charge
Harmon and another guard, named
Fawcett, poured hot shot into the four
remaining robbers and drove them off.
A posse was formed and two horses
were caught that belonged to the rob-
bers. The citizens of Round Pond soon
heard OF the holdup and a large crowd
turned out and soon captured one of
tho robbers, who, it developed, has been
hanging around Round Pond for several
days. The dead robbers name is Pitts,
notorious desperate who has been in
several affairs of this kind in the last
two years. The three wounded robbers
who made their escape rode eastward
and are believed to be portion of the
Dalton gang.

Sioux City Officials Charged With an At

Sioux CRY, Ia., April 1.-THE plan
of the county commissioners to deliver
$30O,00O worth of bonds at par is now
known. G. F. Beal claims he had an
agreement to have the board deliver the
bonds to him at par, but was to pay
$4,000 to the members of the board for
his bargain. He says the board got bet
ter proposition from Frank Hutchins
and threw him over. Hutchins admits he
had the signatures of four of the five
commissioners to a contract in which
they agreed to deliver bonds to him at
par and that he got them after Beal was
thrown over. He refuses to state what
inducements he held out to secure the
signatures. Chairman Adams has taken
stand that will defeat any trickery.
Bids have now been advertised for and
an open offer Of $4,000 premium has
been made for the issue.

The Matter of r Survey Attracting Atten-
tion at the National Capital.
ST. PAUL, April 1.-THE Mississippi
Superior canal scheme is attracting con-
siderable attention in Washington. The
Associated Press correspondent sends
out the following:
Representative Kiefer of Minnesota is
taking an active interest in the PROPOSE
ton for survey for canal between
the waters of the Mississippi river and
Lake Superior. He has already intro
duced bill asking an appropriation of
$4,000 to make the survey. The bill
was under consideration last week by
the committees on railways and canals,
and was referred to ub-committee of
three members with a request for an
carly report. Mr.. Kiefer said that in
the Fifty-second congress an amend
ment was added by the senate to the
river and harbor bill for survey SIM
liar to that contemplated in the pending
bill, but owing to some misunderstand-
ing 1t was not agreed to in the house.
'The magnitude and importance of
the construction of canal between
these waterways and its effects upon
the commerce of the country cannot be
overestimated," he said.
"lt comprehends grand revival of
river navigation, and if successfully
carried out will enable boat to load
at Superior and Duluth and all inter-
mediate points and carry its freight to
New Orleans. With this canal con-
structed, the interests of the North and
South will he as closely allied as those
OF the East and West at the present day,
and that, too, at rate of transporta-
tlon at least one-third lower than the
shipper, producer and consumer has to
pay today. This matter of survey to
test the practicability of canal to
unite the waters in question is work
thoroughly national, and considering
the many public benefits that would be
derived therefrom, the project should
be found feasible. I have received a
great many letters from the jobbers and
business men Of the large cities in the
North, in which they pronounce in favor
OF the proposed survey"
