AFTER iowa ICE TRUST.
Indications That Law is Violated b
Des Moines Companies.

Des Moines Companies.
Des Moines, July 20-Recent sensa-
tional disclosures in various American
cities which have resulted in the re-
turning of indictments against ice
dealers who are charged with combin-
ing to keep up the price of ice may
start something of a similar nature in
Des Moines.
If ice can be manufactured for $1.30
per ton and delivered at a total cost
of not more than 50 per ton, is not IS
per ton an exorbitant price?
If ice can be taken from the river
and packed for 35 cents per ton and az
an additional s1.75 per ton is it not
asking rather high profit to demand
IS per ton from the consumer?
In other words is not clear profit
of Sc per ton of 400 per cent larger
increase than any dealer has the right
to demand of the people whom he
serves?
These are questions which have been
submitted to Grant Henry, clerk of the
grand jury. Mr.. Henry mas been max
ing a secret investigation of conditions
among local ice dealers. He has also
been keeping close watch on the de-
velopments in other cities. Newspap-
ers containing complete accounts of
the recent indictment of ice dealers in
Toledo who were fined $4,000 each and
sentenced to terms in the work house
have been furnished Mr.. Henry and he
is studying the methods that were
pursued there.
But the Toledo investigation was far
reaching in its results. For now Kan
sas City, Washington, ST. Louis and
New York, all have grand juries prob
ing the ice trust. Even Dubuque, in
Iowa. is aroused and the county at
torney there is collecting evidence
which he will submit to the October
grand jury.
Prices Always the Same.
An investigation of conditions in
Des Moines shows a peculiar situation

Million on Great Cathedral.
New York, July 20.-On the top Of
Crow hill in the Prospect park section
of Brooklyn, now occupied by the
buildings of Kinks county penitentiary,
we'll be reared at a cost of $4,000, 900
a stately Catholic cathedral, following
in its architecture the beauty and
grace of Notre Dame de Rouen, one
of the most celebrated cathedrals in
France. Work will be under way next
spring.
Notre Dame de Douen was begun
about the year 11OO but was not COM
pleted until the sixteenth century. 1t
is in plain, a Latin cross with aisles
surrounding it completely and given
access to the three great chapels of
the choir. Striking features are
great central doorway, rose window
and numerous arcades and Gothic
pinnacles and turrets.
Brooklyn's cathedral will. it is said,
follow the lines Of this edifice closely
both as to exterior and interior The
city must vacate the site by April II.
when work on the new structure will
begin. The Catholic population of
Brooklyn is now estimated at 100000.

passengers We're transferred as QUICKLY
as possible and brought to this city.
The Perseus and the Patten interlock-

night.
Harbor Covered With Fog.
The lower harbor was covered with
a dense fog at the time of the collision
and the two vessels were running at
reduced speed. When directly off st.

mort side of the PerseuS, smashing the
paddle wheel and box and tearing away
much of the poiner work The Patten

damaged The impact was SO great
that the vessels remained fast togeth-
er No effort was made by the Patten
to break away for it was felt that safe

naming interlocked.
While the Patten loomed suddenly
that collision was unavoidable the
passengers on the two vessels became
frantic with fear. Just before the crash
one man on the Perseus jumped over
board He was quickly rescued. how
ever.
Officers Busy Quieting Panic.
The crews Of the two vessels were
summoned to quarters and then the
captains and officers went among the
passengers in an effort to restore quiet.
A hasty examination indicated that
neither boat was in immediate danger
of going down and the excursionists
were assured of this fact Meantime
the whistles were calling assistance.
and while the passengers were rushing
about the decks seeking relatives and
friends, the excursion boat Commodore
and a Staten Island municipal ferry
boat ranged alongside. The transfer of
passengers was quickly made and all
were brought to the city.
Women Faint During Excitement.
During the panic many women faint
ed and some were bruised, but not Sc
riously. One of the passengers who
landed from the Perseus declared that
he had seen two men jump overpoaro
and he thought both were drowned.
There was no confirmation of this how
ever A boat was quickly lowered
from the Coney Island steamer and
picked up the one man who did jump
into the water. Efforts were being
made late last night to tow the dis
abled vessels toward Brooklyn.

slayer's Former Attorneys Surrender
to New Counsel.

TO new -SOunSeIs
New York, July 20.-Judge Olcott
and his firm of lawyers surrendered
to Harry Thaw and his new counsel,
Clifford w. Hartridge. They gave up
despite Thaw's mothers request that
the slayer's dismissal of the Black
Olcott firm be ignored and every paper
relating to Thaw's defense was turned
over to Hartridge by Olcott after de-
lay of over a week, which ended with
the filing of suit to compel Judge
Olcott's firm to desist from trying to
defend Thaw for the murder of Stan
ford White.
In his cell Thaw was jubilant Thurs
day eveLASg.
Il said I'd fix them" he remarked
with satisfaction. ."They wouldn't
mind me when I told them to quit their
insanity nonsense. Now they've got
what's coming to them"
This was the way in which Thaw
received the information that his wish
to dismiss the Olcott attorneys had
been realized. Attorney Hartridge was
the bearer of the news and Mrs. Eve
lyn Nesbit Thaw was also at the
Tombs to hear it.
Just before accompanying Mr.. Hart
ridge to her husbands cell Mrs. Thaw
made sworn statement covering her
entire life "and telling the truth" she
said, "about that European automobile
trip and marriage which everybody
seems to be lying about
This is the statement which Attor
ney Hartridge has promised to make
public at the proper time so as to quell
the wave of calumny which, he de-
clares, is sweeping over Thaw. Mrs.
Nesbit Thaw made similar one to the
Olcott firm. 1t was promptly sup
pressed, altho she showed a strong de-
sire to make it public, and their dis
regard of the imperious wishes of the
former artists model was one of the
reasons why Harry Thaw dismissed
them.
according to Attorney Hartridge the
statement covers everything in
avs life from the time she
