GREAT TRUST FORMING To CON-
TROl BASEBALL and ATHLETICS

Presidents Brush, Freedman and 9TH
ers, however, would not join In the har-
nlony movement. Freedman at first was
equally averse to the trust idea, but it
had SO many seeming advantages that
he at last Joined with Hart in the pre-
iiminary negotiations.
,Soden of Boston and Rogers of Phil
adelphia are two of those so far left out
OF the organizations. 1t is reported that
Robinson Of st. Louis is interested in
the matter already, but the inner circle
is being kept small and none of the men
known to be involved will talk Of the
details.
Whether Hart and Freedman and
their associates expect to seek the con-
troll at once Of cricket, athletic sports
and other branchehs outside of base
ball they will not say. The main object
IT the combine will be to merge the Ma
tional and American leagues.

Demand For Iron.

Whatever may be the ultimate
effect OF the Morgan Steel com
bine, it is having one persent
effect, according 10 mining men,
that is not at all unsatisfactory
TO holders OF mining properties.
Within the past few weeks, or
since the deal became something
more than o vague rumor. there
has been a steady market for
iron properties. Anything that
has iron on it is in demand. 1t
is not apparent just who is doing
the bidding, for they are not
working openly but through
agents. Any man who has a
piece of property with show
ing of iron ore can sell it at once.
There is not very much of that
kind of property 10 be had, and
that is probably what makes the
demand good. With Que big in
terest in control Of SO many of
the mines on the ranges there is
a scramble TO get hold OF the
balance before the big combine
can get them. This is believed
to be the reason that j. j. Hill
has been acquiring some propert.
les on the range. He desires TO
make il certain that his road will
have ore to haul for some years
to come. and with one interest
in control of the mines of the
range, and owning roads of its
own. he might have trouble in
getting ore, even though his
present relations with J. Pier
pont Morgan may be excellent.

Aught Charles Convicted.

A case that has excited some in- terest over the county was settled last Wednesday when Aught Charles of Newton township, was found guilty of aggravated assault and fined S2oo and sentenced to six months in jail. Tom Rogers and Jno. T. Bailey, who were in dicted for the same offense and tried at the same time, were ac- quilted. The following is a brief history of the crime for which Charles was convicted:
 One night last summer, about I2 o'clock some one called up an old man named Williams, living in Pleasant Valley, and asked him to direct him to the house of some man who lived near, saying that he was aeson of this man and had
 
 just come ill from Texas. Will jams told him that he was crippled and not able to accompany him to the place, but offered to entertain the supposed stranger that night and take him to his fathers house the next morning. But the stranger finally prevailed on the old man to accompany him and they started off together. Alter they had gone about half mile, Williams noticed party of men coming up behind them, and soon one of the party halted the old man and his com panion and, drawing a pistol on Williams, commanded him to throw up his hands. The old man obeyed and the whole crowd fell upon him, kicked him, beat him with sticks and otherwise injured him. During the attack upon him several pistol shots were fired and his wife, hearing them became alarmed and started out to hunt him. Soon after she came upon them the band dispersed.
 As Williams could not positively identify his assailants, most of the evidence was circumstantial. It was claimed that Charles and Will Hams had previously quarreled over settlement, and that Charles had threatened him with trouble.
