CHICAGO MILK TRUST.
New Story in Regard to One Of the
Schemes of Joseph Letter.

Milwaukee. Dec. 1t is stated that
John LeFeber, of North Greenfield, a
suburb of this city, is working in con-
nection with the rumored milk trust
with which Joseph Letter and the Kee-
Chappeu company of Chicago are con-
nected.
LeFeber owns a large dairy at Wau-
kesha, Wis, and is now engaged on a
scheme to control the entire shipment
of milk from this section to Chicago,
Milwaukee and Waukesha counties are
among the best dairy sections in the
country and large quantities of milk
are shipped to Chicago daily. A brother
of John LeFeber said that the latter
was now in Chicago in connection with
the project and had been working on
the scheme for the past year and that
it was now nearly perfected. The plan
of the trust is to control all shipments
of milk from different sections of the
country to Chicago, and thereby estab-
ush a uniform price to consumers in
that city.

LEE DENIES REPORT.

Lee, who has received number of des-
patches to-day inquiring as to the ac-
curacy of the report that he is arranging

Gushing to meet Senator Proctor, says
he has no present intention of doing so.

well, except Frederick g. Holzer, who
is slightly worse. The divers have been
continuously at work, but the results of
their labors, SO far, as these would throw
light on the cause of the explosion. are
kept strictly for the Court of Inquiry.
1t is said that twenty bodies have
been found under the forward hatch,
but only three have been removed owing
to the mass of chairs and wreckage in
the way.
MAGAZINE DID NOT EXPLODE.
The officers of the Court of Inquiry
during their inspection of the wreck to-
day discOvered,it is said, that the armor
plates projecting from the water for
ward near the bow were from the bottom
of the ship. There is a good deal OF
speculation as to what caused this, many
contending that the position of the plates
shows that the big magazine forward
did not explode. The divers, it is be-
lieved by many, will find very little of

FELL FROM CAPITOL.
Volunteers From COncOrdia Fall
From the Building and
Are Hurt.

Charles A. Best and Carl Groom, pri-
Yates in the volunteer company recruit
ed at Concordia, were seriously if not
fatally injured by falling from the land
ing of the south steps of the capitol
building shortly before noon today.
Best's home is in Clifton, Kan, and
Groom lived in Concordia. Both are un-
derstood to have relatives at the re-
SpectiVe places.
Best struck squarely on his head and
it is believed his skull is fractured.
Groom struck on his side, and the fall
fractured his shoulder. Both men were
unconscious when picked up and re-
mained in a semi-consciouS state for
several hours after the accident. Both
are believed to be dangerously injured
internally.
The landing of the steps is even with
the stone ledge above the first story of
the capitol building and is about 80
feet from the ground. The two men
were on this landing with other mem
bers of the company, waiting their turn
to be mustered in, and shortly before
noon started to scuff1e in a, friendly way
over the possession of a pipe. Before
either realized their position, they were
on the edge of the landing, and, losing
their balance, they fell headlong to the
ground.
Neither Of the men moved after strik-
ing the ground, and those who saw
them fall, thought them dead. Other
members of the company hurried down
the steps to their assistance and car
ried them to a grass plot near by. Both
men were unconscious and blood was
trickIing from Best's mouth and nose
Medical aid was quickly secured, as
several of the examining surgeons were
in the state house at the time, and the
physicians did what they could to make
the men comfortable until the ambu-
Iances arrived. They were then taken
to Christ hospital.
Best's head struck the ground with
such force as to make a well defined
indention in the hard earth. Broom s
shoulder bore the force of the fall, and
the bone was badly fractured.
Best's brain Is thought to be injured,
as he has been mumbling incoherently
since the accident Groom's most seri-
Gus injuries are believed to be inter
nal.
The attending physicians stated this
afternoon that they were unable to say
what the result of the accident would
be.
