Farmers and representatives from

for a monster exchange by which the
producers of the country expect to con-
troll the markets, build elevators, es-
tablish packing houses, organize banks.
maintain schools and improve high
ways. These associations are the Pro-
ducers' and Consumers Union of Ten

ROME is TO HOWL
There Will Be Pandemonium
When the Gar Visits.

ROME, Sept. st is expected that
the czar's visit to Rome will precipitate
scenes of disorder. The socialists and
republicans are arranging to give the
czar a disagreeably noisy welcome.
They have planned to maintain pande-
monium as long as the czar remains
in Rome. They have purchased 10000
whistles, which will be Justify blown
from the time the czar enters until he
leaves the city.
Wherever the czar goes, day or night,
he will be greeted by thousands of
shrill whistles which are guaranteed to
drown the music of the bands. The So
cfalists and republicans hate the czar
intensely, and especially since the
kiShenev massacres, and they intend to
make his visit to Rome one he will not
forget soon.
The socialists are preparing a gen.
eral strike, which will be declared the
day the czar arrives King Victor is
reported to be furious over the plans of
the socialists to spoil the cars visit,
and the authorities are puzzled what
to do to suppress the whistles
If 1t were not for the fear of showing
the white feather the king would be
glad to defer the czars visit until the
resentment of the socialists has time to
cool. Meanwhile the police are pre-
pairing to suppress the widespread dis
order. The prospect is that there will
be lnnumerable broken heads in Rome
during the czars visit.

Keepers of Zoo Make Experiment on
Their Charges.

NEW YORK, Sept, s.-The keepers
in the Glen Island zoo yesterday tested
the effect of laughter on various beasts
and birds. The keepers wished to learn
if animals are sensitive to ridieule.
They stood before the cage in which
Jack, the biggest lion, is confined and
laughed as if DR.. Depew were speaking
after dinner. The lion flew into a ter
rible rage, and hurled himself against
the steel bars in the atternpfit to smash
them and tear to pieces the offenders.
Their cachination produced precisely
the same effect on the tigers. The
puma showed his teeth responsively,
but not In laugh-1he snarled angrily
and glared at the keepers as If to say:
If 1 were out there you would laugh
on the other side of your faces"
When the keepers laughed at the
Dig monkeys those creatures huddled
chattering In the corners OF their cages.
A female monkey hid her face in her
hands and acted as K made ashamed
by the ridicule. The laughter had no
appreciable effect on the hippopotamus
or the alligator whose hides are very
thick, of course. The cinnamon bear
climbed to the top of his tree trunk
and looked down idisgusteily as If he
would remark: I'm blessed if I see
anything funny t&
The elephants trumpeted loudly when
they were laughed at, and parrot used
language that might not be printed.
The only beast or bird that joined in
the laughter was the hyena, and, as
usual he did not. know what he was
laughing at.

Consolidated Lake Superior
Company Is Veering Toward

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Sept. S.-That
the Consolidated Lake Superior COM
pany, which has extensive interests on
the Great Lakes and in Canada, and
which is capitalized at more than $780,
100000, will be involved in litigation
with some of its stockholders, seems
inevitable. These stockholders, headed
by E. Clarence Miller, banker of this
city, want to know the names, sub
scriptions and details of the $1,000, 900
underwriting stock syndicate: They
claim that over 100000 of these sub
scriptions are unpaid.
Counsel for the stockholders last
week threatened to bring mandamus
proceedings and force the company to
show its books. On Saturday an agree
ment was reached by which counsel
for the stockholders We're given to un-
derstand that the books of the COM
pany were open for their inspection.
When counsel for the stockholders
called at the companys office today
they were told that the books had been
removed to Sault Ste. Marie, Canada
Counsel for the complaining stock
holders will now begin suit against the
company, and if they cannot reach the
books through the courts of the United
States, they declare they will apply to
the Canadian courts.

SHOT AT MAGELSSEN
Details of Attack Upon Vice
Consul Finally Arrive.

BERLIN, Sept. S.-The Egyptian Ga
has published details regarding the re-
cent attack on United States Vice Con-
sui Magelssen. 1t says Mr.. Megelssen
was riding home in a hired carriage in
the evening, when on passing a street
near the Ras Beirut, headland about
three miles from Beirut on which stand
the buildings of the American mission,
he. heard sounds of pistol firing. He
turned round to see whence the shots
came and a bullet whizzed past his
face. The vice consul at once had the
carriage stopped and jumped out to
discover his assailant, but could see no
one
On the following day he went to the
government office, where he met the
Austrian and Italian consuls, who had
come to complain about burglaries in
their houses. The governor ordered an
investigation of the attack on Mr. Ma
gelssen, but the only result was the
arrest of a young Christian, who had
attended a marriage on the previous
night, in whose possession was found a
toy pistol The American consul in
ulSndIlIly refused TO accept the arrest
of this man and decided to visit his
brother-in-law, the American consul
general, who was staying in the noun
tains to the north of Beirut
The Egyptian Gazette mentions that
three months before Mr.. Magelssen
was attacked by men in Turkish uni
forms, but whom, by his strength, he
put to flight. 1t adds that there is lit
tie public safety in Beirut and it is
very dangerous for Europeans to ap-
pear on the streets at night. Murder
and pillage are daily occurrences, and
