TRUST IS SECURE.
PRES. DICKERSON, OF STERLING,
TALKS OF BICYCLE COMBINE.
THE FUTURE OF THE STERLING
The Local Plant Will be one of the Lead
ers in the New Organization Manu-
facture of sterlings will be Contin
ued and Output Increased.

President G. W. Dickerson, of the
Sterling Bicycle works, who has been
in New York for the last week attend
ing the meetings of the Bicycle trnst
magnates, returned home Saturday
evening and this afternoon granted q
representative of this paper an inter
view in regard to the big combine. In
speaking of the trust Mr.. Dickerson
said that there was no doubt but that
the present organization would become
effective and that the plants would be
transferred to the trust as soon as the
deeds could be made out and the
proper resolutions passed for this pur-
pose. Mr.. Dickerson stated that the
combine was as yet in its infancy, and
as in all cases in the formation of such
amalgamations it would require some
months to complete all the details of
the matter. He said that as yet none
of the details of the workings OF the
trust had been arranged. No officers
have been elected and no plans for the
operation of the ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS have
been decided upon.
In regard to the future of the Ster-
ling plant Mr.. Dickerson stated that it
would probably be operated as before.
He said that it had not been decided
by the trust that the business of indi-
vidual factories should be continued,
but that the wheels which have repu-
tation for excellence will still be made
by the trust under their former names.
In this class he spoke of the Sterling,
the Rambler, the Columbia, the Cleve
land and several others. The trust
Will handle several lines of wheels and
the Sterling will be one of the high
grade wheels. Other factories will be
called upon to make a cheaper wheel
and this machine VII probably bear
the name of the trust.
Mr.. Dickerson said that it was his
opinion that the present output of the
Sterling would be greatly increased
EspocIa. attention WI be given tc tll
manufacture of the Sterling chainles'
wheel, as this bicycle has proved to bt
the best bicycle of the kind which has
been placed on the market, and there
is little doubt but that the Sterling
chainless will be the leader in the lis
of the product of the American Bicycle
Company. In the increasing of the
number of wheels turned out by The
factory the Sterling will employ al
added force of workmen and the plans
of the trust will be to keep the factory
running full blast the year round.
In speaking of the transfer of the
| factory to the trust Mr.. DickersoI
stated that at the meeting in New
York it was decided to make the CAPT
tai stock $4O,OOO,OOO This is divided
into one third cash, one third preferred
stock and the balance common stock
The individual plants were paid for il
the same proportions, so that we al
retain stock in the new company.
1t was decided to issue $4,000, 900
worth of 20 year 5 per cent interes
bearing gold bonds. This issue wal
oversubscribed for by $4,000,00O, ar
unlocked indication of the standing Of
the syndicate in the financial world.

RACINE WATER FAMINE.
Too Much Testing Results in the Break
ing of the Mains.


The city of Racide is entirely without
a water supply today. For some time
the city have insisted that the water
company make a test of the pressure,
and on Saturday evening while such a
test was being made one of the large
mains broke and as a result the entire
supply of the city is turned off.
Not a drop of water has flowed
through the mains for the past twenty
hours. Nearly 5000 subscribers and
thousands of others who depend upon
the plant for water have been hustling
with pals and other receptacles carry
ing supply from the artesian wells
and private wells, and it may be two
or three days before the damage to the
big main can be repaired.
In the meantime owners of factories
are nervous for fear of fire, and Fire
Marshal Abesser has manned the three
reserve fire steamtrs, but admits that a
big fire would be disastrous, as there
are very few fire cisterns in the city,
and there is no other way of getting
water except from the river and lake.

THE FIRST INSPECTION.
Company L is Examined by Major John

Company L is Examined by Major John
Lynch, of the First Regiment.
The first inspection of Company L,
the local military company since it's
admission to the ranks of the Wisconsin
National Guard, was held last night at
their armory in this city. The inspec
ton was conducted by Major John j.
Lynch, of Milwaukee, who is ranking
officer of the new First Regiment. All
the officers and forty-fve members of
the company turned out and they made
good showing. Of course the Major
found many defects, but on the whole
he cOmplimented them very highly.
The full strength of the company is
about sixty men but quite number of
them were away from the city and
we're not able to be present at the in
speetion. The present week will be a
week of hard work for the company as
they will begin the work of getting
ready to go into camp with their regi-
ment the second week of August On
next Saturday the company will go into
camp on Jacobs Island for the purpose
of studying the details of camp life.

DECIDE TO INCORPORATE.
Members of st. George Church Decide to
Take an Important Move.

Take an Important Move.
A special meeting of the St. George
Church society was held last evening at
the church hall which will probably
prove very important in the history OF
he church. 1t was decided that in the
near future steps will be taken to have
the society incorporated under the state
laws. This step has been contemplated
for some time and it has caused a
great many discussions among the
members of the church many of whom
are opposed to such action. These
people who are opposed to the incorpo-
ration of the society claim that this
action will place the church too much
under the control of the bishop and
besides they hold that the action tend.
ing toward incorporation is uncalled
for. The action Of the meeting last
evening has been the main topic of
conversation among the members of
the church today. and it is probable
that an effort will be made to have the
matter taken up again and the action
rescinded.
