appears that the former quashed the
first investigation by the grand jury
because the conduct of the United
States senator involved was in ques-
ton. For this action the attorney
general sharply reproved Summers,
stating that the connection of Senator
Dietrich should not be deterrent to
the investigation and cbaracteriZing
Summers interference as highly i'm

Paris, Nov. l8.-Tbe Eifel tower,
the highest monument in the world,
is doomed to disappear. 1t is inclin-
ing to one side, like the leaning tower
of Pisa, but, unlike the latter, its
center of gravity will inevitably be
displaced, and unless it is taken down,
it will topple over. The removal of
this enormous mass of iron will take
away the best means of seeing the
country around Paris, for the tower
is 985 feet high. Americans can form
an idea of its height when they con-
slider than the Washington monument,
the second highest in the world, is
only $50 feet. The restaurant, cafe,
bars, theatres and shops of the tower
we're much patronized by foreigners
and fashionable French women.

You may put me out of the building

rived in this city today. 1t takes five
cars to carry the parts of the first
mammoth Hoe press that will be used
in printing the paper. A double shift
of men will be put to work at once

Hearst enterprise may be gained from
the fact that Los Angeles Examiner
