DERELICT Is FOUND
Wrecked Schooner ]. v. Jones is
lowed Into the Karbor
at Milwaukee
LOSS ON BOAT lSA HEAVY ONE

The wreck of the schooner, ]. V.
Jones, the Kenosha boat which houn-
dered in the storm off Milwaukee last
Thursday morning, has been found,
and it was towed into the Milwaukee
harbor just after 9 O'Clock Wednesday
night by the government tender.
The wrecked vessel was found early
Wednesday morning floating with the
winds ffty-six miles northeast of
Milwaukee. The government boat
had gone in search of the boat on
Tuesday. AS soon as the schooner
was safely towed into the harbor she
was taken to the Milwaukee Dry dock
where she will be repaired at once.
1t is believed that the boat can be
repaired without complete rebuild
ing. When the boat was sighted by
the Tuscarora the hull was well down
in the water, being partially filled
and showing bad list to port. Only
the stump of the main mast was left
standing, the rest having been swept
away when the boat capsized. The
entire deck load had been washed
from the vessel.
The N. r. Aliens Sons company of
this city, who owned controlling
interest in the schooner, have re-
ceived report from the captain Of
the vessel stating that the matches of
the boat were washed away early in
the storm, and that for this reason it
was impossible to prevent the boat
filling with water and sinking. AS
the schooner is considered one of the
best of it's class on the lake, twill be
repaired at once, and it is expected
that it will be ready for use again by
the opening of the new season.
The boat is valued at $1,000, and
with repairs of a few hundred dollars
it is thought that it will be perfectly
sea-worthy.

FEAR FOR SMALL POX
Health Officials Receive Notice
That Infected Emigrants are
Travelling to Wisconsin
LOCATE DISEASE IN NEW YORK

Government commissioners Of
emigration of Chicago have sent out
warnings to Kenosha and other cities
along the North Shore urging the
health officers of these towns to keep
a close look out for the appearance of
small pox among Italian and Sici1ian
enigrants coming to town. On Tues
day it was discovered that an Italian
in New York hospital was suffering
from the dread disease and later it
was learned that he had arrived at
Castle Garden on Monday and had
been one of eighty Italians who were
bound for western cities in Illinois
and Wisconsin. In the order no men
ton is made Of Kenosha but it is
claimed that more Italian emigrants
come to this city than to any other
city in Wisconsin.
1t is thought that every one Of the
eighty Italians was exposed to the
disease and many cases may develop
within the next few days.
The attention of Health Officer East
man has been called to the matter
but he is practically powerless to
act. On Thursday evening carload
of Italians came into Kenosha but in
an hour from the time of their ar
rival they were scattered all over the
city and it is impossible to locate any
of them at this time. 1t is possible
that this shipment Of Italians were
among the number on board the in
fected boat.
Dispatches from New York state
that the case of the disease discovered
! there is of the most dangerous nature
and for this reason the health officers
are being warned to take every pos
sible precaution to prevent the
spreading Of the pest.

SLATED FOR COADJUTOR
Persistent1y Reported Rev. DIR. Robin
son Will Assist Bishop Nicholson

son Will Assist Bishop Nicholson
Persistent reports are current in
Episcopal circles that Rev. DR.. Henry
d. Robinson, warden Of Racine col
1ege, will be named as coadjutor to
Bishop Nicholson. When seen about
the matter Rev. Mr.. Robinson said he
had heard nothing to that effect, knew
nothing about the possible person to
be selected and could not talk about
the question for he absolutely knew
nothing about it.
The gentleman could not in any
way discuss the important matter and
begged to be excused. From a source
close to Bishop Nicholson it is learned
that it is barely possible that the
bishop may withdraw his request for
a coadjutor, owing to improvement in
his condition, but this is hardly pos
sible, as the continuation of the hard
work might again impair his health.
Bishop Nicholson is at a sanitarium
in Watkins Glen, New York, where
he has been a number of weeks. 1t is
known that the bishop was greatly
disappointed by the refusal of Dean
Paul Matthews of Cincinnati to &C
cept the coadjutorship.

may TAKE FRANCHISE
City Council to Be Asked to Make
Searching Investigation Of TeIe-
phone Deal Now On
CAN'T STIFLE COMPETITION
If it is Found That the Wisconsin Conn
pany is to Get Citizens Franchise
Council May Declare All Rights
Granted Null and Void

A storm OF indignation has Deen
aroused by the announcement of the
consolidation of the lines of the Wis
consin and Citizens telephone COM
panies in Kenosha, and the mutter-
ngs of the people who see in this
plan an effort to stihe competition
has reached the city council and
Mayor Gorman, and at the meeting
of the common council on next Mon
day evening the mayor will demand a
searching investigation into the deal.
IF it is shown that the deal will re-
suit in the sitting of all competition
in the telephone business in the city
the council will be asked to take i'm
mediate steps to cancel all rights held
by the Citizens company. In con-
nection with the announcement of
the deal it was definitely stated that
the officials of the Citizens company
would not make an effort to transfer
it's franchise rights but that this fran
chise would be held by the officials of
the former company. This would, of
course, be simply an arrangement to
prevent another company securing
franchise for the erection of COM
petitive exchange in Kenosha.
The officials of the Citizens COM
pany, it is stated, will make an agree
ment with the new company not to
dispose of this franchise to outside
parties and it will be continually held
as whip to prevent any other COM
pany from entering the field. It was
expressly stated in the franchise that
should the Citizens company unite
with any other company the city
would have the right to annul all of
the grant.
For this reason the two companies
have struck on the plan of organic
ing third company for the sole pur-
pose of getting around this difficulty.
The officers of the Citizens company
have stated that the Wisconsin COM
pany would not purchase the plant
and franchise of the Citizens COM
pany outright on account of the fact
that the company did not have the
ready money, but such a statement
will hardly appeal to thinking peo-
pie.
Under the new company scheme the
Wisconsin company will practically
secure control in Kenosha without
any entangling alliances of the fran
chise order. That the new company
will use the lines of the Citizens
company there can be no doubt, but
the city may step in and ask that the
courts rule on the right of new COM
pany to take these lines so long as
there will be an end of competition.
The object in granting the last fran
chise was to establish competition in
the telephone business in order that
the Kenosha people might get the
benefit of rates arranged on a COM
petitive basis, and the transfer of the
franchise is against the spirit, if not
the letter, of the franchise.
Most Of the people of the city will
welcome single phone system, but
at the same time the people will in
sist that their right be held invio1ate.
