Associates to Construct One.
Boston, May 4.-The committee on
hal bors of the Massachusetts legisla-
ture agreed this afternoon to report to
the senate tomorrow bill to incorpo-
rate Alexander Dow and associates
with power to construct ship canal
on Cape Cod, between Barnstable and
Buzzard's Bay. There We're numerous
other petitioners who desired the right
to build the canal over different routes
but after a careful consideration of all
questions involved the committee was
of the opinion that the parties repre-
sented by Mr. Dow intended in good
faith to carry the enterprise to a sue
cessful completion, and had the finan-
cial ability to provide the necessary
capital of $6,OO0,000, The new company
will utilize section of about a mile
and third of the canal which has al
ready been constructed and it is esti-
mated that the remaining six miles can
be finished in two years. The gentle
men interested in the present plan are
large capitalists in New York, Phila-
delpha, Cincinnati Michigan and

SUGAR KINGS no TESTIFY.
Hnvemeyer and Arhuckie to Appear Be-
fore the Industrial Commission.

Washington, May 4.-The industrial
commission was assured to-day that
Henry o. Havemeyer would appear be-
fore it on the 18th inst, to testify as
to the operations of the sugar trust
John Arbuckle is expected on the fol-
lowing day. L. Z. Grande Power, for
eight years labor commissioner of Min
nesota was before the commission to-
day. He spoke especially of farming
conditions in the northwestern states,
saying that the present tendency among
farm hands was towards the ownership
of the lands and that a greater percent
age of farmers now owned their own
land than fifty years ago. He also eX-
pressed the opinion that the farmer who
was in debt to-day had ten times the
opportunity to discharge his obligation
than the farmer at the beginning of the
century had. Mr.. Power thought that
the tendency was towards small farms,
and added that the wheat cotton and
other products grown by the small
farmer controlled market prices. Mr..
Power also said that many Of the agri-
cultural colleges were conducted upon
lines calculated to attract boys educat-
ed by them away from the farms. Spec
ulatioa in grain, he said, did not affect
the prices of it except temporarily, nor
OBJECT the farmers except so far as they
engaged in speculation. "You don't
mean to say" suggested Governor Har-
ris, that the farmers speculate?"
"They do" replied the witness. VERY
largely they are the lambs which are
shorn on the stock exchanges. Stop
the farmers from gambling and you
will stop it all. Three-fourths of the
money thus lost is lost by farmers"
He thought that corporations and
trusts should be strictly controlled and
regulated by law, adding that in his
view the country was drifting with
mad frenzy" towards disaster. All
should be strictly control
led by the state in which they operate.
He thought, however, it might take
twenty five years of legislation, Iitiga-
tion and experiment fully to work out
the problem

mated Copper company, just incorpo-
rated under New Jersey laws with a
capital of $75,O00,O00. 1t says: after
throwing out bids that were on examin-
alton proved to be the effort of speCu-
lators to take advantage Of the great
interest to make money with no risk

ers who were too late, but it is estimat-
ed at $50, 100000; five of the three hum
dred had single subscriptions Of $1,OOO,-

for themselves, would have carried the

C1r4DE1 OF HALrFAx CONDEMNED
Once Thought Impregnab1e but Now
Considered Useless.

Halifax, N. S., May 4-The Evening
Mail to-day says: 1.-The citadel, the
largest fort in Halifax, has been con-
demned by the military authorities. The
great citadel, constructed at height
of 253 feet above the level of the sea,
is practically useless as fort, and
will be utilized hereafter principally for
barrack purposes. The old cannon have
been dumped and replaced by few
Maxims. The citadel was looked upon
as the Dunkirk of America. 1t was
constructed at an enormous cost. A
large number of Maroons were imported
to assist in the construction of the
works, but the mortality among them
was so great that the British govern
ment considered it advisable to send
them to the river Niger. To- day the
great fort that was considered impreg-
nable is declared useless"

tember 23 last. She was of American
register, though formerly known as the

found the Abbey an Batangas bay on
the southern coast of Luzon, the fill
buster had landed her cargo of arms
and munitions and the insurgents re-
fused to give them up. Thereupon the
Abbey was seized and taken by the
McCulloch to Manila, in accordance
with Admiral Dewey's desire to main
tain the status quo in the hilippines
pending the conclusion of the work Of
the peace commission in Paris.

Michigan a Summer Resort State.

No State in the Union is coming
more rapidly into prominence as "a
healthful summer resort than the
lake-locked State of Michigan, and
certainly no State possesses more at
fractions to tempt the summer tour
list or health seeker than Michigan,
with its two peninsulas, each bound
ed three sides by the great inland
seas, swept with the invigorating,
water-co0led and purified breezes,
and alive with the thrObbing inter-
ests of water traffic. The great, cold
Lake Superior, the largest body of
fresh water on the earth, dividing
the United States from the almost
unexplored north, bounds the State
on the north, Lake Michigan on the
west, and Lakes Huron, Erie and
st. Clair on the east, making this
almost island State, with, its hun
dreds of beautiful inland lakes and
streams, perhaps the most attractive
collection of locations for summer
residence i'm the world.
The Michigan State Board of
Health has recently issued an official
publication setting forth, by photo
graphs of views throughout the State,
the facts showing the desirability of
the State as summer resort and
its value as a health resort. This
publication should be of interest to
many persons in the sister States on
the South, and the publication sets
out attractions that appeal to persons
who are in pursuit of health or pleas

Parole Law Invalid.

Circuit Judge Cantrill has handed
down a decision holding that the
famous and much-talked of "Parole
Law" is unconstitutional and void.
Thus again is the legal ability of ex-
Gov. John Young Brown sustained.
He held the law unconstitutional and
refused to sanction its provisions.
Gov. Bradley conceded with Gov.
Brown and the matter rested there
until recently, when the Prison Com
mission undertook to revive il by a
a test case, with the result as above.
