TROUBLE OVER CANAL.
Suits and COuntersuits Filed in
Controversy Over Water Power
Rights of Drainage Canal

Joliet, July 30.-Controversy over
water power rights along the drainage
canal at Joliet and Lockport developed
sensational surprises Tuesday. The
Chicago sanitary district filed a con-
demnation suit to secure title to land
purchased by the Gaylord syndicate, a
private organiza ton, developing
water power site antagonistic to the
district south of Joliet. The syndicate,
in turn, filed a new petition condemn
ing all the sanitary districts land in
Joliet. Officials OF the district an
nounced that plans for the Lockport
development will furnish $4,000 horse
power and make navigable waterway
for lake steamers in Joliet President
Snively, of the Illinois and Michigan
canal board, is in Joliet securing legal
advice preparatory to an injunction
suit against the Chicago sanitary dis
trict near Lockport. 1t is claimed that
the state owns the title to some of the
riparian rights involved. Mr.. Snively
expects to start his suit to-day.

KING WALKS A LITTLE.
Improvement in Edwards Condition
Indicates That Coronation Will
Not Be POstpOned:

London, July 30.-The latest and
most reliable information, indicates
that King Edwards doctors were not
mistaken in fixing August 9 as the
date upon which his majesty could be
crowned. The sinister rumors which
have pervaded all classes for the last
few days now appear to have lost that
semblance of proba bility which made
even the members of the ca binet nerv-
Gus lest another postponement of the
cornoa ton might be necessitated.
The apprehension that King Edward
would be unable to stand the strain of
the coronation ceremony has been
greatly lessened by the announcement
that his majesty is now permitted to
use his feet, and, with the aid of a
stick, has done little walking. An
other late telegram from Cowes, Isle
of Wight, saying that nearly all the re-
strictions upon the kings diet have
been withdrawn, has been welcomed
as evidence that the recent ON
nous deductions were drawn with
out due allowance for the doc
tors extreme cautiousness. While
the king was testing his ability
to walk two stalwart jackies stood at
his side. After this experiment, which
BODIED well for his fulfilling the neces-
sary coronation functions at Westm
ster abbey, King Edward sat smoking
on the deck of the royal yacht and
watched the races of the small yachts
off Cowes.
Those who drew differences from the
fact that the invita- tions to Westmin-
ster abbey were not dated, have had
their fears dissipated by the proclama
tion published in the Gazette Tues
day night fixing August 9 as the date
for the coronation, which postdates,
and is altogether more important than
anything which might or might not
have appeared upon the cards of in
vitation.
According to present arrangements,
King Edward and Queen Alexandra
will leave Cowes either August or
August 8, for buckingham palace, and
will return to the royal yacht August
IS, when the entire fleet will pass be-
fore King Edward and salute him. thus
making second naval review. After
his return to the yacht the king is ex-
pected to take an extended cruise to
the northward and subsequently
to spend some weeks at Balmoral
where preparations for the arrival of
their majesties have already been COM
menced.
Sir Joseph c. Dimsdale, the lord
mayor of London, expects King Ed
ward to visit the city of London the
week ending October II, when a great
luncheon will be held in the Guild
hall, which is to be followed by royal
procession through the south Of Lon
don. All these plans may not be car
ried out to the letter, but their ar
rangement, combined with the en-
phatic optimism of the kings physi-
clans. is generally taken as insuring,
so far as human foresight can be re-
lied upon, the kings coronation for
August g.

CHARGED WITH MURDER.
Natives in the Island of Mindoro Ac-
cused of killing and Mutt
IatinE Four Americans

Washington, July 3o.-Manila pa
pers received at the war department
give an account of the beginning of
the trial of % natives in the island of
Mindoro who are charged with kill
ing of four Americans. The names
and identity of the Americans could
not be obtained. From one of the 20
men arrested a partial story Of the
massacre has been obtained. The
four Americans approached the shore
of Mindoro in a boat, and as soon as
they landed the natives attacked
them, putting all to death, and mutt
lating them. The bodies then were
put in the boat and cast adrift. The
finding of the boat by the Americans
led to the discovery of the crime, and
confessions from some of the natives
gave such, facts as have been OBJ
tained
