In some unexplainable way the
greenhouses OF W. J. Davis on Stanley
avenue, South Canon. caught fire at an
early hour last Sunday morning and
wrought considerable damage before
it could be brought under control. Mr..
Davis is an extensive grower OF lettuce
and other winter vegetables. and his.
entire crop was destroyed by the heat
and smoke which broke much OF the
glass roof besides iniuring the support
ing woodwork. The loss will reach
several hundred dollars and some time
will be required in making the neces-
sary repairs to the structure.

The Fruit Growers, Institute

The many, excellent addresses. and
the many pertinent discussions of ques-
tions affecting the welfare Of the&frnit
industry, at the annual institute of the
Fremont County Horticultural ;society
last week, cannot fail to result inImuch
good to those.eng.ged in that line of
business.
In every field of commercial enter
prise people are learning that not only
in unity is there strength, but that it
is also the means of success, and, to
that end, are organizing for mutual
benefit and protection.
Horticulture and it's kindred branch
es of employment, are, by reason of
the competition of recent years, rapid
ly becoming reduced to the terms Of
an exact science and those who follow
them for living must keep up with
the procession or fall hopelessly in the
rear in the race for success.
No mans experience in business is
SO good that it may not be helped by
the experience of others ini the same
Calling particularly is this true in
fruit growing, where an individual
monopoly of either skill or knowledge is
impossible.
Aside from the benefits derivedifrom
the discussions relating to an improved
horticulture by scientific and practical
men and women, the social side of the
institute was helpful in welding togeth-
er the home and domestic interests Of
those of similar aims and aspirations.
The Fremont County Horticultural
society has high mission to fulfill and
every fruitgrower should identify him
self with it.

American Manufacturers Take Alarm
at Prospects of Increased Tar
iff In Germany-Ask Relief.

Washington, April 17.-Senator Cul-
Ion OF Illinois was at the state de-
partment this morning in the interests
CT some of his constituents who are
large manufacturers of starch and food
products, from corn. One OF these
products is called maizena," about 30
ner cent of the manufacture of which
is taken by Germany and much goes to
ether European countries. The pres
ent tariff charged in Germany on i'm
portation of maizena, is $l.35 per
hundred pounds, but proposition is
pending in the German reichstag to
increase this to SLIT which the Him
oise manufacturers claim would be
prohibitive and materially affect the
industry. Germany, it is understood,
las been proposing increased duties on
many American products with the
idea of inducing the United States to
enter into reciprocity treaty with
rer and with the purpose of putting
rer rates so high in advance that she
could apparently make large reduc-
tions when such treaty should be ne
gotiated. Senator Cullom was inform
ed that no negotiations were on foot
and that there was no prospect that
any reciprocity treaty with Germany
would be concluded this year.
In view of the fate which other
reciprocity treaties have suffered al
the hands of the United States 1t Is
rot believed in official circles that
even were such a treaty to be nego-
tiated it. would have the remotesi
chance of ratification in the senate.

AN AUTOMOBILE
ON A RAMPAG
RAN OVER A BOY AND SMASHED
PLATE GLASS WINDOW.
Woman Occupant Screamed, But BY.
ISLANDERS Were PowerIess to Help.
Injuries Were Slight.

New York, April 17.-Amid the
greatest excitement among the
throngs which lined the street on
either side, an automobile cab, having
for a passenger a fashionably dressed
woman, started down Broadway from
Twentieth street late this afternoon
while the chauffeur was standing or
the sidewalk, and did not stop until
it had run over boy and smashed
into a plate glass window of a large
store at Eighteenth street.
The woman IN the cab who later
gave her name as Mrs. Coates. but re
fused her address, screamed for help
during her wild ride down the city's
busiest thoroughfare, but those in the
street were powerless to aid her.
The machine gathered speed as IL
travelled down Broadway and as there
was nobody at the steering wheel 1t
surged from side to side, narrowly
escaping collision With surface cars.
Finally, at Eighteenth street it
struck the curb, mounted the side
walk and crashed full tilt into the
window OF a store.
The store was filed with patrons
at the time, most of them being wo
men. They dashed into the street,
not knowing what could have hap
pened, and several grew hysterical
with fright when they saw the big
machine stuck in the window frame,
with its wheels buzzing around alarm
ingly.
The chauffeur of the machine had
been repairing one of the wheels
when the automobile started to move
of of its own volition. He was John
Doris, of the New York Transporta-
ton Co., of No. 321 West Fifty-sixth
street.
AS soon as the machine stopped the
chauffeur sent in two calls for ambu-
lances to the New York hospital but
Mrs. Coates refused to be taken away.
Her wounds consisted Of several Sc
we're cuts from glass, which had show
cred over her from the broken win
dows of the automobile.
The boy who was knocked down by
the machine was Joseph Strong, is
years old, of No. 1926 Madison street
He was only bruised however and
was able to go home unaided

Indianapolis, Ind, April 17.-Four
boys are dead and one hundred In

that these nearest the bottom of the

This caused all behind to come
crashing down upon those in front
and in an instant the five foot stair
way was jammed with the struggling
boys. The terrified shouts of these
at the bottom were of no avail in
stopping the crush and practically
the entire crowd of boys was piled
high at the foot of the stairway.

aged at Age Of 70.

Chicago, April H. Thomas o.
Haynes, secretary of the Rand-Mc-
Nally Publishing Co., shot and killed
himself today in his room in the Mar

of his physical condition. Mr.. Haynes
was about 70 years old. He was born
IN Canada and had been with Rand
McNally & Co. since 1870. When the
firm was incorporated in 1872, he be-
came secretary and had since retained
that position.

If years. He had married daugh-
ter, Mrs. Herbert p. Meyer, in this

SMOOTH COLLECTOR
DEFRAUDED TWO
DEALERS
SECURED COPY OF A BILL AND
COLLECTED THE CASH,
Presented the Claim Several Days
Ahead of Time and Gave Five
Per Cent Discount.

a fraud upon two Canton dealers

discovered until Monday. Fred Haldi,
the meat dealer of 415 West Lake
street, had an account with j. H..
Keyser, grocer, of 1904 West Tusca-
rawas street. Haldi was told about a
week ago to send his collector around
on Monday with the bill and agreed
to do so.
When the collector went to Key
ser's place yesterday he was told
that on the Thursday before some
one brought the account there and
said that Mr.. Haldi needed the money
and would give him per cent off 70
cash. Keyser paid the bill and the
collector receipted for it, signing some
fictitious name The amount wua
$3.50.
How the fellow got possession OF
the slip containing the bill cannot be
ascertained, but it was evidently
taken from the shop or picked up
somewhere where it had been mislaid
The collector had a number of slips
and Keyser had no suspecion of him
at the time He was young fellow
but no very good description could
be secured. The matter will be re
ported to the police
