MUNICIPAL OWNERSHIP FIGHT.
Contest Over Waterworks Causes Riot
at ManitoWoc, Wis.


Manitowoc, Wis, Sept. 27.--An at
tempt Of the Manitowoc Waterworks
company to open river intake pipe
during test of the plant precipitated
a riot in which citizens offered armed
resistance to the plan.
Mayor Stolze, who Is charged with
having been responsible indirectly for
the move made by the waterworks
company and who insisted that the
test continue after he had been in
formed it would be necessary to open
the river pipe, was assaulted by BY
ISLANDERS and knocked down.
City health officers had issued or
ders against the opening Of the pipe
and in seeking to enforce the order
Health Officer Max Staehle was in
jured by being struck in the face by
a heavy iron bar rsed for opening a
shutoff. Alderman Lorengen was also
beaten.
The riot is elimination of fight
that started with the selection Of
Stole as mayor on a platform of city
ownership of the water plant. The
test of the waterworls was directed
by the council two weeks ago and the
water company claimed that in order
to meet the requirements of test it
would be necessary to open the river
pipe, which would flood the entire sys-
TEN with river water and would en-
danger public health.

Vessel Sunk in Suez Canal to Be
Blown Up.

Blown Up.
Port Said, Egypt. Sept. PA seri-
GUS stoppage Of traffic on the Suez
canal is threatened owing to the ne,
cessity for the blowing up of the Britt
ish steamer Chatham, which was sunk
on Sept owing to the fact that the
ship was on fire and that the flames
threatened a large quantity Of dynai
mite which formed part of her cargos
Since that time the wreck has OBJ
structed the waterway, especially at
Divers will place cases of blasting
gelatine in the, hold of the Chatham
and these will be connected with an
electric battery ashore and the eighty
tons of dynamite in the wreck will be
exploded Thursday morning. An ex-
pert from the Nobel company, who Is
conducting the operations, says 1t is
impossible to predict the amount of
mischief which will ensue from the
great upheaval or to what extent traf-
&c will be impeded. He says there Is
no precedent to show the effect of the
explosion Of such an amount Of dyna-
mite. It may conceivably form
crater in the bed of the canal in which
the wreckage may be buried, leaving
the canal deeper than before.
The Suez Canal company declares
it is impossible to estimate the length
Of time the canal will be blocked, but
the company's experts are confident
It will only be a matter of few days.

for $25O,000 damages against the Cur.
tis Publishing company, publishers of
the Ladies' Home Journal. Samuel B.
Hartman of Columbus, O., proprietor
of the Peruna Medicine company, is
the plaintiff in the suit. In the Sep.

laration says. an advertisement Of the
Peruna company containing testi-
monial from Congressman George H.
White of North Carolina was repro
duced, but with it was signed de-
NAL from Congressman White that he
had given the testimonial to the medi-

alleges, was secured through misun.
derstanding as Congressman White, it
is said in the declaration, signed the
original testimonial.

might last. One of the men working
on the place had returned from haul
ing load of wheat to town, and
brought back with him load Of coal
which he did not unload, but Jun
hitched the team and put them in the
barn without embarrassing them. Mr..
and Mrs. Posey had waited supper for
him and while seated at the table
about eleven p. m. fire was dis
covered at the barn.
In the barn loft were sleeping two
men, Engineer Hamabley, who had
been running the threshing engine
and another man Of the crew whose
name was not. learned. The fire had
gained such headway when discovered
that nothing could be saved and the
two men in the barn were burned to a
crisp. " *s@@
q In addition to the loss of human life
was the loss Of twelve good horses,
four colts, harness, hay and other
property.
The man who was at the barn last,
stated that there was no sign of fire
at eleven o'clock when he put the
team in the stalls. The origin of the
fire remains mystery. The remains
of the unfortunate men we're gathered
up and their relatives in Wisconsin
notified of their death.
The name Of one OF the men burned
was Will Barnes. The engineer was
Adam Hambley, who was we'll known
near Courtenay. His remains were
badly charred and he had reached the
door OF the barn and was found at the
threshold, almost at a place of safety,
when he was overtaken by the flames.

A continual stream Of people filed
thru the building from ten O'Clock in
the morning till two p. m. to take a
last look at the remains, and many
eyes were damp with tears at the last
glance at the face of their departed
friend. No more sincere respects or
deeper regrets have been exposed
over the loss Of any citizen of Fargo
than were heard at the funeral of the
late John Haggart. -
