NO CASE AGAINST HIM.
Government Not Sustained in It's
Charge Against the Eau
Claire Contractor.
JOHN T. TINKER DISCHARGED.
He was Accused of Contempt Of
Court-Sheboygan Conference
Elects Delegates.

Madison, Wis, July 2.-[Special.] j
John T. Tinker of Eau Claire was ar
raigned before Judge Bum in the United
States court today on charge of con-
tempt of court, in violat ting an order APP
pointing George B. Wheeler receiver Of
the Eau Claire Street Railway company
and enjoining all persons from interfering
with the operation Of the line. This, it
is alleged, Mr. Tinker did in moving a
house along Barstow street iii Eau Claire.
The building, a small house, was owned
by Philip Bureau, and Tinker contracted
to remove it to another part of the city
and across Eau Claire river. He OBJ
tanned permit from the city and on June
% started the building and placed it on
the street railway tracks. A pole inter-
fered with it's passage and it remained
there two days. Then it was moved as
far as the bridge and was too large to
cross this without removing the super
structure, and there it stayed. Mr.. Tin
ker, owing to the city having given him
the permit, claimed the city would have
to give him an opportunity to cross the
bridge After it remained there two or
three days the city street commissioner
removed the building to q vacant lot
Meanwhile the running of the company's
cars was materially interfered with and
the receiver seeks redress in the proceed
ings for contempt. The defendant sets up
the claim that delays were due to acct
dents and that there was no intention to
violate the orders of the court.
At the conclusion of the hearing Judge
Bum discharged Tinker, saying that
while he might have made a mistake he
did not consider that his act constituted
contempt of court.

Dates Arranged for the w. N. G. at
Camp Douglas.
Madison, Wis, July Especial AID
Jutant-General King has issued his gen
sral order No. 10, governing the annual
encampment of the Wisconsin National
Guard at the Wisconsin military reserva-
SloD ln Juneau county, more commonly
known as Camp Douglas. The dates on
which each regiment will be in camp are
as follows: Fourth infantry, troop and
battery, July 21 to o. inclusive; Second
infantry, July % to August B, inclusive;
Third infantry, August to August 10,
Inclusive: First infantry, August II to
August IL, inclusive
The quartermaster's department will
furnish transportation and have the camp
aH readiness for the several commands.
One sergeant with two privates of each
company will be sent to camp twenty
-four hours in advance of their respective
commands and two company cooks may
0e sent with these parties. The troops
will pack in their blanket bags, necessary
clothing and toilet articles. In addition
cane box or trunk will be allowed to each
squad of four. Detailed instructions as to
camp duties are given. In addition to his
other duties Capt Charles r. Williams,

3n closing Gen. King says:
Wisconsin is honored this year by the
presence and participation Of three com
nlandS famous i'll the annals of the army of
the United States; the Third infantry with
ats enviable record of a century of glorious
service: Battery e, First artillery, distin-
RuiShed on many field in the War of the
Rebellion and later in Indian battle, and
tr0ops b and X of the Seventh cavalry,
with their matchless story of heroic service
and suffering in six campaigns against saw
age foes. The army offers no higher eX-
ample of soldierly proficiency in their corps.
She soldiery of Wisconsin can seek no high
@r incentive to their best efforts, and the
~ of Off md
ne will prove his appreciation of the favors
extended by the general government and

MlLWAUKEE'S FOURTH.
Day Given Over to a Programme of
Sports-FeW Persons
Injured,

Milwaukee, Wis, July 5.-Milwaukee
celebrated With the exception, how
ever, of Aid. Bryden's fag-raising there
was nothing of an organized effort to
display patriotism, and except those who
remained 1T home or sought the parks
for rest the people gave themselves over
to a programme of sports.
The first big event was the Waukesha-
Milwaukee road race, which George
Schmidt, a husky young rider of the
Badger Wheelmen, captured with ease
in $3.50, with a handicap of nine and
half minutes, crossing the tape at
Grand avenue and Twenty-eighth street
at 8 o'clock. 81 minutes and 20 seconds.
He led A. F. Bingenheimer and j. NJ.
Guilty, who finished close second and
third respectively, by about 400 feet, and
had he wished to he could have won by
from three to six blocks. The time prize
was won by A. c. Mertens of St. Paul,
who finished in thirty-ninth place and
established a new record for the race.
His time was 1912 The race for time
honorS was exciting.
In the second annual regatta of the
Lake Michigan Yachting association
sailed in Milwaukee bay Priscilla was
easily landed at the stake boat ahead
of her competitors by skillful handling,
her big spinnaker pulling her through the
water. while the smaller yachts were
handicapped by lack of canvas. Haw-
thorne finished fully eight minutes be-
fore her competitors did, and Valiant,
after a poor start outfooted the other
class B sloops, Phantom coming second,
although Jeanette started across the line
first.
About 10000 people witnessed the
races at State Fair park. The principal
event was the Milwaukee Derby, which
was won by Buck Massie in a canter.
He had a walkaway, none of his com
petitors at any time coming dangerously
near Buck Massie was the favorite,
and there was no betting done on his
chances-everybody be leving him to be
a sure winner. He took the lead from
the start and was never headed. The
booamakers did big business.
Nobody was killed and the list of in
jured was surprisingly small. Nor were
there any big fires.
