THE ]. F. DIETz CASE
W. w. Dietz Sees the End of the
Famous Cameron Dam
Case.

case.
W. w. Dietz of Rice Lake was in
the city Thursday. He advises the
News that everything is quiet again at
Cameron dam, that his brother is none
the worse off on account of the pres
ence of the squad of deputies who left
Park Falls for the Thornapple with
loud pronunciamentoes Of their coming
triumph where all others had failed
and with declarations that they would
bring the erstwhile redoubtable cap
tain Of Cameron dam with them.
Mr.. Dietz is satisfied that the end has
come. The last squad sent to the dam
were picked up with great care and
extravagant expense to be the realiz-
alton or despair of the owners of the
20, 0,000,0 900 feet of fine pine that lie
about the dam, the food of insects and
prey of the elements, likewise the
bone of contention of great logging
companies and swarms of hirelings on
the one side and plain and resourceful
John F. Dietz on the other. These re-
puted deputy United States marshals
made most successful failure of their
campaign, if we are allowed to use the
expression of the powerful weak"
man from Missouri.
w. w. Dietz says that the United
States judge has refused upon every
application to issue criminal warrant
and that such an instrument is the only
hope of his brothers enemies. He
thinks that no more deputies or hire
lings will be sent into the woods and
that the logging companies will settle
down to consideration of the question
whether it is wisest to suffer the hui
initiation of settlement of the case or
to allow the 20,O00,000 feet of the fin
est pine in Northern Wisconsin to rot
in the pond and upon the banks of the
Thornapple at Cameron dam. The
logging company has thus far acted
upon Rob Roy's theory Of ''The good
old way, the simple plan, that he shall
take who has the power and he shall
keep who cam
But John F. Dietz is keeping an d
seems to have the power. There is
nearly, if not quite, quarter of mill
ion of dollars involved ssin the contro-
versy.

ASSESSMENT OF THE CITY
City Assessor Foster Is Pushing the
Work to Completion

N4GJ ASSOS0O4 l. OSOOA L doAAAS5 1AC
Work to Completion
City Assessor A. E. Foster is pro-
scouting the work of assessing the city
as rapidly as conditions and careful
work will allow. He expects to have
the assessment rolls completed by the
first of July.
Mr. Foster informs News reporter
that. Notwithstanding the reduction
which will be made in the totals by the
removal of property from the right of
way of the Owen & Northern railway,
and the lessening of property values
through which the line extends within
the city limits, the footings this year
will be several thousand dollars in excess
of the last assessment.
Mr.. Fosters work will, of course,
have to run the gauntlet of the board
of equalization, but the care with which
he is doing the work suggests that not
many changes will be made and that
the final footings will not be materially
changed.

A GEOLOGICAL SURVEY

and Flambeau River
Valleys.

S. Weidman, an attache of the State
corps of engineers and E. B. Hall OF
Minneapolis are in the city making q
geological survey of the Chippewa and

several years. Last year the southeast
ern part of the county was covered in
connection with the counties adjoining
that portion of Gates county.

fiber MILL BURNED
Plant of the Ashland Sulphite Ell
ber Company Likely to
Be Rebuilt.

Ashland, Wis, June II. The plant of
the Ashland Sulphite Fiber company
was destroyed by fire at noon to-day.
The loss is $4,000, insured for $40, 900.
The mill was owned by Thomas Bar
don of Ashland but was run under
lease by the Menasha Paper company.
1t was built thirteen years ago and was
practically burned about six years ago.
1t produced paper pulp from pulpwood
by the acid process. 1t will likely be
rebuilt as it was the only institution of
the kind in Northern Wisconsin.

Still Rising Rapidly.

The river continues to rise here at
the rate of inches an hour. An army
of men is at work in the lower por tion
of Hannibal, endeavoring to save prop
erty. The railroad yards and factory
district are inundated.
All available boats are making trips
up and down the river rescuing persons
who escaped to points above the water
line.
Many of the small levees have brok-
en-, but the Sny levee, which extends
along the east side of the river for rs
miles, still holds, altho gangs of men
have been constantly employed repair
ing assures. The property loss al
ready suffered, it is estimated, will run
into several millions.

STORM Ar PHILLIPS
Damage Done in that City by the
Big Storm of Last
Week,

An electrical storm passed over this
city Tuesday night, and the lightning
played many pranks.
At 1920 o'clock the flagstaff of the
Odd Fellows hall was struck by light
ming and the electric fluid ignited the
roof at the base of the flagstaff. The
fire department was on hand promptly
and soon had the fire under control
The damage was nominal, but the
flagstaff was badly SCARED.
The Masons were holding a session in
their hall in the next building. When
the lightning finished playing with the
Odd Fellow goat it visited the Masonic
hall and put out the electric lights,
throwing at least one member of that
fraternity to the floor. The electric
juice followed the wiring from the hall
to the stairway entrance, blew hole
through the wall, and came down
water pipe into the Bee Office, where it
blew out the electric light fuse and
1CIl0CACu clIC CClSpiloIlc oPSSCIl1SSS. n
few minutes repairing in the morning,
however, fixed up the lights and the
talker.
The telephone company reports be-
tween thirty and forty telephones af-
fected by electricity, and the Davis
company says quite number of fuses
burned out over town in their incan-
descent circuit.
The arc lights were dark after 1898
caused by short circuit at the plant.
The electric display on the wires
around town was beautiful, great balls
of fire travelling along. the lines of
wire and occasionally bursting with a
fine pyrotechnical effect. On the
whole the damage was very slight. :

ODIOUS COMPARISONS
Some Reports that Make Good Food
for Reflection of the
Knockers.

Those who are hunting for something
to complain about here are invited tx
read the following which is a seasonable
addition to the almost weekly reports
of disasters by storm and food, cyclone
and drouth from which Gates county is
immune:
Keokuk, Ia, June 12.-After reach
ing the 18 foot mark the Mississippi
river here is now falling. The Des
Moines river is also falling after
reaching the highest mark ever known
here, breaking the levees in three
places and flooding the town of Alex
andria, Mo. Other levees on the Mis-
souri, and Illinois shores are now out
of danger. The river is ten miles wide
extending from Warsaw, ILL.,, to the
bluffs of Missouri. Hundreds Of acres
of growing crops are inundated.
Millions are Lost.
Damage estimated at $3,000,0OO is
the result of an unprecedented rise
of eight feet in the Mississippi river
in less than twelve hours. Hundreds
of families were driven from their
homes and bridges were swept away,
railroad tracks were washed out, trains
tied up, and thousands of acres of crops
were destroyed.
Back of Alexandria, Mo-, 100 square
miles of farming country is flooded.
The Egyptian levee, on the Missouri
side, broke and the Hunt levee, on the
Illinois side, was damaged. Reports
that the Hunt levee has broken are
not confirmed. The crest of the flood
was reached this afternoon, and today
the waters are receding.
Mississippi Eight Miles Wide.
Hannibal, Mo-, June II. The flood
ed Mississippi river has spread over
all the unprotected low lands and is
from five to eight miles wide between
here and Keokuk, Ia. Near Alexandria
Mo-, farmer named Riley Smallwood
was drowned, and seven other persons
are reported missing. Great numbers
IF dead animals are floating past Hanni-
oal and from Alexandria, Canton,
Memphis, West Quincy and Keokuk re-
ports have been received Of the general
osses of livestock. The flood came SO
suddenly that the farmers in the low
ands had no time to do more than save
their families, and livestock was left
to perish.

CHANGE IN THE REQUIEM.

Newberry Organ Replaced by Access
siors to the Orchestra.
Verdi's Requiem to be rendered by
the New Haven oratorio society, Feb
rl1ary# 8. in Woolsey hall, have just an
nounced through Prof. Parker the re-
suit of long an dcareful elaboration
regarding the use of the NeWberIy or
gan in conjunction with the orchestra.
Heretofore it has been used in these
oratorio concerts, but tone purists have
frequently urged the advisability of
emitting this instrument and substitute
ing for it's violin horn and other pipes
The original Instruments. To introduce
The instruments played by artists of the
first rank is both difficult and extreme
" expensive. A prominent New Ha-
ven musician thoroughly Informed on
this particular point said yesterday:
s.These pipes, rich and unparalleled as
they are in quality and pariety of tone,
are. after all, only limitations of string
ed and wind Instruments. would en-
dorse most heartily the enlargement of
the orchestra if it is a practical thing,
cutting out the organ. To be sure the
Newberry organ is an instrument of
most rare and exquisite quality, and
If the addition of a number of first
class instruments is expensive beyond
the point of practicability, the music
will still be of the rarest order. I do
not complain of the organ. is a noble
piece of work, but am urging for the
perfect, the ideal conditions which we
would have without it. Anyone who
knows intimately the organ and violin,
for instance will appreciate in a
twinkling the superior quality of the
latter for oratorio purposes. In my
opinion, and judging from many sim
liar performances, a pure orchestra,
4 that is, one composed of original in
struments exclusively, is one of the
most attractive features of the coming
concert and the general verdict of
those who know technically and those
who know only in the most general
way, will be that the harmony of pure
orchestra is decidedly superior to the
general effect of what may be termed a
.sn1ixed" orchestra.
Professor Parker's announcement re-
garding j.. the Newberry organ has
caused considerable sit among the local
musicians, all of whom thus far con-
suited ratify his decision.
