Saw. Wilson Will Quit.

Chicago, July ia Washington
special to the Chronicle says:
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, It
is certain, will retire from the cabinet,
as result of the cotton leak scandal.
but not because he is implicated in the
slightest degree or because his integ-
rity is questioned. Developments have
convinced President Roosevelt that
neither Secretary Wilson nor Statistl-
clan Hyde knew what was taking place
under their noses. The president is
far from being pleased with the out
come Of the first investigation, as II
was by no means searching enough.
Solicitor General Hoyt, the acting
attorney general, after an examination
of the papers in the cotton leak case,
has concluded that Former Associate
Statisticisn Holmes, as we'll as his as
sociates III the scandal, can be success
fully prosecuted.
Mr.. Hoyt yesterday advised Attorney
General Moody Of his opinion and
turned the papers in the case over to
United States District Attorney Beach
with instructions to present the matter
to the grand jury.
If the grand jury finds an indictment
1t will be for conspiracy to defraud the
government, the penalty being inn
prisonment for not less than one year
or more than three or a fine of not less
than $1,000 or both fine and imprison-
ment.
Before the case is presented to the
grand jury District Attorney Beach
will conduct another investigation for
the purpose Of gathering more evidence
to be used in court and to determine
whether there shall be an investigation
Of the entire department.
While Mr.. Beach will inquire into the
matter with these two objects in view
it is practically decided that there will
be a thorough investigation. and 1t. is
believed that other officials of the age
ricultural department will be caught in
the net.
The district attorney will push the
investigation with vigor and without
regard to those who may be affected by
it. This course will be pursued by di-
rection of President Roosevelt.

NORWEGIAN SHIP CLEARS
Captain Demonstrates Patriotism a
Port of New York.

New York, June 24.-Captain Nil
sen, commander Of the Norwegian ship
Tjomo, has demonstrated his patriot
ism and recorded his good ship as the
first to clear this port it'll papers
from which all reference to Sweden
had been eliminated. The biggest Nor
wegian flag Nilsen could find was fly
ing from the masthead when the Tjomo
passed down the bay.
Captain Nilsen reached port Mon
day last and showed his patriotism by
ignoring the Swedish consulate until
the custom house officials made him 90
there and enter his ship. Then he
went thru the formality of presenting
his papers to the consul and allowing
the ship to pass under the consul 8
control.
The captain decided to make another
effort at recognition when he visited
the consulate to get his papers back
and obtain his clearance papers. He
sought Vice Consul Hansen and the
latter made out the papers, but the
captain before signing carefully
erased the word "Sweden,' and the
consul, himself a Norwegian, did not
argue the question. He allowed the
erasures to stand, signed the papers as
many times as was necessary, and then
| shook hands with the skipper.

Sandstone, Mimi, June 24-From

boy, a 21a year. old son Of Martin Ben
son, a farmer living six miles from
Sandstone, who wandered from home on
Thursday afternoon.
No progress could be made with the
dogs, and the search, after this manner,
was abandoned at noon, and Sergeant
Osborne will return to Superior. How
ever, the search has not been given up
by the authorities here, and tomorrow
800 quarrymen will enter the woods in

This proves conclusively that the mis-
creant who sought to wreck the tram
waited until it had approached too near
the switch for Tyler to stop. Tyler
would certainly have seen the switch

Reply and Anarchy Rules.

LODI, Russian Poland, June 24.-Yes-
terday was black Friday, in LODI.
All the horrors Of fred Sunday in
st. Petersburg were surpassed. While
it is not yet possible to ascertain the
exact number of victims, estimates
place the killed and wounded as high
as 1000.
The troubles, here were initiated by
the social democrats and Jewish bund,
who determined to avenge their com
rades killed in the rioting on Wednes-
day. Thursday, the first of Corpus
Christi, passed off quietly, but during
the night workmen attacked the patrols.
In this fighting two officers and seven
Cossacks were killed. One of the latter
was shot by a girl of 10 years.
Friday Day of Terror.
At dawn Friday commenced a day Of
terror.
The city was given up to bloodshed.
Anarchy and fierce street fighting
prevailed all day.
Barbados were hurriedly constructed
in the Jewish quarter at dawn. Men
climbed to the roofs of houses, cutting
telephone and telegraph wires to use
for entanglements in the street, while
others cut down telegraph poles and
used them in strengthening their bar
ricades, which already had been con-
structed, and in building others.
Early in the day two bombs were
thrown from the crowd into the bar
racks, killing or wounding twenty sol
diers.
Bloodshed Started.
This started the shedding Of blood
which continued until after nightfall.
At IL O'Clock all the factory hands
struck and focked into the streets.
Cossacks, dragons. and infantry

BOATS WRECKED
BY The STORM
Sixty Mile Gale Causes Much
Damage at Calhoun Yacht
T.. Club Docks.

A general wrecking of boats was the
result of today's blow at Lake Calhoun.
Many of the fast racing boats owned
by members Of the Calhoun Yacht club
were torn from their mornings and
dashed against the banks and docks.
Some of them are wrecked beyond re-
pair. The Scorpion, Thistle and other
flyers were among those damaged.
A part of the roof was blown from
the bathhouse. This is new struc
ture and was wrecked by the wind of
Aug. 20 of last year. So far as can
be ascertained, none of the lake sail
ors were caught on the water when
the storm came up. A rumor was cur
rent at 2 o'clock this afternoon that
been blown over, but inquiry at the
lake fails to verify it.
The storm broke on the. lake with
out warning and was straight, steady
blow, lasting but few minutes.
Reports say that the wind which pre-
vailed on Calhoun did not do any dam
age at Harriet. A few trees on the
surrounding hilltops were blown down
Sixty Miles an Hour.
Sixty miles an hour for ten minutes
was the record at the weather bureau
today from 1896 to 1915 pm. The blow
began at 1890 and for twenty-five
minutes blew gale of over fifty miles
an hour.
Districts south and west of the cen
ter Of town suffered. Trees were
blown over and wires were reported
down in a number Of places. The
trolley wires at Tenth street anc
Eighth avenue s were down, delaying
| traffic at that point for some time
Other lines were tied up from trees ant
other obstacles blown on the tracks.
There was no tornado danger as thu
blow was straight and there was prac
tically no drop in the barometer. 4
few telephone lines were temporarily
put out of commission but were quickly
| fixed so that in twenty minutes afte1

mark the blow but the records OF the

.BUBONIC PLAGUE
ON CANAL ZONE
Yellow Fever, Too, Gains New
Victims, Where America
Digs Canal.

Panama, June pa fatal case of
bubonic plague occurred at. La Boca
yesterday. The constant arrival of
steamers from infected South American
ports, which are received at La Boca
without any extra precautions being
taken, must be source of contagion.
The dead man has been working on
board the British steamer Chill, which
the authorities of Guayaquil would not
allow to enter that port. The COM
panions of the deceased laborer have
been isolated. Rats taken from the
steamer Chill are being examined at
