MUSICIANS UNION a TRUST.
Man Barred From Organization Makes
Unique Charge

A charge of trust and organization
in restraint of trade and regulation
of prices is likely to be preferred
against the Appleton musicians union.
This action is the result Of a letter re-
ceiyed from the secretary of the
American Federation of Musicians,
who declares that the action of Prof.
A. NJ. Meader, who recently brought
an injunction against the local union.
restraining that body from bringing
him to trial on charge of knocking, "
has communicated him from the or
der and that no court can reinstate.
It is said there are several persons in
Appleton who can testify that the APP
pleton musicians union regulates
prices and has on several occasions
restrained men from participating in
work where an insufficient number OF
union men were employed.

Railroad Rate Bill May Not Affect Un
expired Passes.
There is likely to be a return Of an
nual passes on the railroads in this
state which have been called in dur
ing the past two weeks by the roads.
The statement comes to railway OF
ficials from lawyer in the interior OF
the state who has made the discovery
that passes that were already issued
and in the hands of holders prior to
the rate bill becoming a law, need not
be Cancelled by reason of the law and
NAV remain in effect until the date of
expiration, which is, as rule, at the
close of the year.
Under the Interpretation placed
upon the new law by the railway legal
department hundreds of passes have
been called in" says railway official
in Milwaukee. 'This was done be-
cause it was believed that no free
transportation, except LudI AClu W
railway officials and employees of the
roads, could be legally permitted to re-
main outstanding under the law.
"Now, as it seems, one of the sec
tions of the law means exactly the Op-
posite, so far as passes already issued
are concerned. If this discovery proves
what it now seems to prove, | presume
all passes called in under the belief
that they were illegal will be returned
or reissued, unless there is some other
reason for not continuing the courtesy
That this alleged discovery has Gre
ated a great deal of interest in railway
circles-as it undoubtedly will among
those who suddenly lost their transpor,
tation-may be re>dily imagined, and
[ understand the whole matter is once
more up for hearing in the legal de-
partment of the railways. w.

SPLENDID RECORD OF CRIPPLE.
Thomas j. Mahon Worked His Entire

Mahon entered the university from
the East division high school of Mil

BIG BATCH OF
INDICTMENTS
MILWAUKEE, GRAND JURY Is
STILL STIRRING UP THE
GRAFTERS.
SIXTY-SEVEN TRUE BILLS
TWENTY-FIVE INDIVIDUALS ARE
CAUGHT IN THE JURY'S
DRAG NET.
SIXTY-SEVEN TRUE BILLS

Milwaukee, July 13.-Sixty-seven in
dictments against twenty-five individ-
UalS, most of whom are former county
officials, were handed down by the
Milwaukee county grand jury late yes
terday in the municipal court. And
the probing of the jury still goes on,
its term not expiring until Sept IL.
Yesterdays batch of true bills, added
to the thirty-eight returned ten days
ago makes a total of 105 thus far, with
the expectation that! further probing
will result in many more indictments
being brought in later on. Yesterdays
list contains twenty out of twenty-one
names returned in the last batch,
4there being but five new names not
before reported.
Capiases have been issued for the
individuals indicted.
= Result of Seid's Confessions.
Nearly all of the indictments charge
bribery in the sum of $50, the amounts
alleged having been paid to present
or former officials in connection with
the awarding of county contracts for
the erection of an addition to the
county hospital several years ago.
Many indictments are the result of
confessions of Otto Seidl, Jr., and Ed
ward F. Strauss, former members of
the county board. F. c. Schultz, a
newspaper reporter, is indicted on one
count, charged with Offering bribe
to Herman J. POmrening, a member
of the state assembly in 1901 to vote
against the primary election bill.

NOT EVEN A SMOKE.
Attorney General Says Anti-Cigarette
Law Is Sweeping.

Law Is Sweeping.
Attorney General Sturdevant said
recently that he believed the new anti
cigarette bill, which went into force
July 1, prohibited any one from hav-
ing cigarettes in his possession for his
own personal use. The generals opin-
ion was unofficial.
at seems to me that the language
of the law clearly prohibits any person
from having in his possession for his
own use any cigarette, cigarette paper
or cigarette tobacco" said Gen. Sturde-
want. "The language used, as | recall
it, is make, keep or have any of these
prohibited articles. The word keep
would seem to me to mean to have in
possession for ones own use or some
ones else. The higher courts have not
yet passed upon this point, so far as |
know. but it seems to me that practi-
cally the same point has been repeat
edly passed upon in cases growing out
of laws prohibiting the possessing or
keeping of liquor. | don't regard the
decision in the Indiana cigarette case
as conclusive on this point
The attorney general said that he
had not been asked for an official in
depreciation of the new. law, but he
thought that the best way to determine
the controverted points would be to
bring a test case and carry it to the
highest court.

men to Protect Small Fish.
Supt James Nevin of the Wisconsin
State fisheries has called attention tC
the fact that the net fishermen of the
Great Lakes are making a serious mis-
take in taking small steelhead salmon
ranging in weight from one to five
pounds and retaining them.
Some of these fish, Supt. Nevin be-
lieves, are being taken by fishermen OF
the lakes who are in ignorance OF
their identity, and the commercial
fishermen Of the lakes should take
some steps to prevent further slaugh-
ter of these immature fish, which he
thinks in a very few years will prove
of great value to the lake fisheries
Supt. Neyin said:

of the Great Lakes are catching quite
large number of steelhead salmon,
ranging from one to five pounds IN
weight. The commercial fishermen

Danger of Greater Flood Probably Is

st. Paul, July 13.-The Mississippi
river was stationary several hours
yesterday, and late last evening began
to show a slight fall. The record yes
terday was 1913 feet above low water,
a rise of 2 of foot during the twenty
four hours. When the water reached
14.8, fortunately it showed no further
signs of an increased rise, and several
hours afterward a fall was noted. A
fall is also reported from points north
of st. Paul. 1t is probable, judging
from weather predictions, that the fall
will continue, and the the danger is
over.
