MAKE PLEA FOR FLUSH BOARDS
Lower Fox River Property Owners
Want Water Supply Dur
ing Summer

Appleton, Wis, May 12.-Riparian
proprietors all along the Fox river
from Menasha to Green Bay have
signed a mammoth petition to be for
warded to the secretary of war, ask
ing the government to investigate local
water power conditions and deny the
prayer of the residents of Oshkosh and
Fond du Lac to abolish flush boards on
the Menasha dam.
The discontinuance of flush boards
at the head water dam would result
in an eXtravagant and useless waste Of
water and incidentally would cause
the loss of thousands Of dollars to
manufacturers. The removal of flush
boards wuold injure if not demoralize
water power along the Fox river for
a period of from three to six months
each year.

Milwaukee, May 1.-THE Evening
Wisconsin says: Some time during the
month of June a new car ferry line will
be established between Milwaukee
and Waukegan, ILL.,, in connection with
the Elgin, Joliet and Eastern railroad
This will put this city in direct con-
nectiOn with all the lines entering Chi.
cago and is expected greatly to in.
crease shipping facilities. President
Banks, of the Elgin, Joliet and East
ern line, has determined to push the
project vigorously.
A dispatch from Waukegan says that
President Banks visited Waukegan and
looked over the ground. A car ferry
dock was built in 1904, and there re-
mains to be done simply the laying of
switch tracks and an apron to connect
the tracks with the ferry boats. 1t is
planned to put Waukegan in touch
with east shore points on Lake Michi-
gan by means of this car ferry connect
ing with the lines entering Milwaukee.

HEYL RESIGNS
AS GUARDIAN
Court Asked to Name Trust Com
pany to Look After Sons
Inheritance.

Milwaukee, Wis, May 14.-Jacob
Heyl sent to Judge Paul d. Carpenter
of the probate court, his resigation as
guardian of Eric Heyl in SO far as
his sons interest in the Schandein es-
tate is concerned and asked that a
trust company be appointed in his
place. The resignation was accepted
by Judge Carpenter, who will make
the appointment within short time.
Mr.. Heyl will continue as general
guardian for his son, but gives as his
reason for desiring a special guardian
with respect to the Schandein estate
the fact that he will necessarily be
absent from the United States a great
deal of the time and that he does not
care to be burdened with this duty nor
with the trouble of securing the $780,
600 bond required of the guardian.

Violated Ordinance.
Hayward, Wis, May 12.-R. ]. Hen
Messy, chairman of the town board,
called a meeting May 1 and made a
motion that the law in regard to
saloons be enforced. This means that
the saloons of Hayward must close
at II p. m. week days, and remain
closed all days Sundays The saloon
keepers did not take kindly to this. At
a little past IL o'clock at night Po-
liceman A. NJ. Carpenter tried the
door of Olaf Noes saloon.
Moe followed Carpenter, abusing the
officer. Upon arriving at the town
hall, which is also used as a police
station, several saloon keepers were
standing around. Moe continued to
abuse the officer, who ordered him to
keep quiet or he would arrest him.
Moe answered.. You can not do t.
Carpenter then started toward him
and Moe drew a revolver, but Car
penter jerked it out of his hands, and
then hit him on the head with his
club. The officer then went for the
DOCTOR who took fifteen stitches in
Noes head.

resentative-What Moody Says.
He says he was asked to see Chand-
Ter as the representative of Tillman,
in charge of the bill, and that the con-
ferences Attorney General Moody had
with Tillman and Bailey were such
as had been held with many other sem
ators to determine the phraseOlogy and
discuss the effect of amendments pro-
posed by them. The president states
that he became convinced that it was
impossible for senators with advan-
tage" to use him as an intermediary,
and suggested to all to whom he spoke
that they communicate with Senator
Allison, whose purposes and the presi-
dents were "identical.' The president
says that his own opinion that the AL
lsOn amendment in no way changed
the court review as provided in the
original Hepburn bill is also the opiN-
ion of Attorney General Moody, and
Secretaries Root and Taft
The attorney generals letter gives
an account at the presidents request
of the conferences which Moody had
at the presidents direction with Sen
ators TilIman and Bailey regarding the
court review feature. He says he adj
vised the president that he should not
at any stage become finally commit
ted beyond recall to any form of lam
guage in any part of the bill, and the
president affirmed the wisdom of that
course.
He reviews the discussion of inter
locutory iniunctions and concludes
that there was nothing in the ICON
yersations" between the senator's and
himself which bound you to any par

A new twin-screw launch be-
longing to DR.. wv. P.tHartfCrd Of
Cassville caught fire Thursday for
noon and burned Ito the waters
edge, the remaining part of the hull
going to the bottom. 1t is reported
that the engines got to ''bucking'
and in some manner the gasoline
tank caught fire, which could not
be extlnguished or theIboat driven
ashore before theifire had gained
such Roadway that sinking was
inevitable. Theliboat was brand
new, only built last winter'and had
been in the water but a short time.
1t was fine craft and wasIdesigned
to be one of the feetest launches in
this section and was constructed at
considerable expense.
The towboat, Eagle Point,
owned by Capt. Kimbel of Du-
buque, struck snag near the Iowa
shore opposite Cassville Monday
afternoon while on her way up
river with two barges in tow. The
boat was not following the channel
when the obstacleiwas encountered,
but where in low water a large mud
bar extends out into the river ard
usually a number of partly buried
trees, legs, ETC., may be seen. At
the present high stage Of water
these submerged, but not far from
the surface, as in this instance.
After the boat struck the snag the
captain at 'once realized that she
would sink and guided her for
shore, where in three minutes from
the time of striking the snag the
craft settled down on the river
bottom. 1t was reported here Tues
day that's Capt. Kimbel had con-
cluded to not make any effort to-
ward raising the steamer until the
water becomes lower, when the
work can be done in less time and
at far less expense. The damage to
the hull is not yet known, but it is
presumed that one or more bad
holes were made owing to the fact
that she went down so soon after
hitting the hidden obstruction.

ance Commissioner John A. O'Shaug-
messy, who was charge by w. f. Bech-
tel with having accepted a bride of So
COO to suppress an unfavorable report

or any other sum for suppressing the
report, which he says the records of
the insurance commissioners office
show was on file months before the
time Bechtel alleges he paid for it's sup
preston.
O'ShaughneSsy says that the bribery
charge has never been made outside
of a court room, and that he has not
had a chance to meet it except in the
public prints. He says that he asked
to be allowed to be witness AT the re-
cent trial of Bechtel, but that the pros
ecuting attorney refused, on the ground
that he did not wish to have the real
issue obscured by the introduction of
the alleged bribery.

ALSO THE ONE OF DICTATIoN
Evidence That He Never Committed
Himself to Any Rate Bill
Amendment.
Stood with Allison as to What the
Bill Should Be-AttOrney Gen.
eral Moody COrrobOrates-
the Executive.

Washington, May Is. - The sensa-
t1onal rate bill incident in the senate
Saturday, during which Tillman, on
the authority of ex-senator Chandler,
made statements regarding the presi-
dents course in connection with pend
ing railroad rate legislation, some OF
which statements were denied by Lodge
on behalf of the president, had it's Sc
quel when an official statement was
issued by the White House giving an
account Of the subject on the part Of
the president and Attorney General
Moody. The statement comprised two
letters, one from the president to Sen
ator Allison, and the other from At
torney General Moody to the president,
both dated yesterday.
No Chance for Misconception.
The president says ''In no case =
either in the case of Mr.. Chandler or
any one else-Was there the slightest
opportunity for any honest misconcep-
ton of my attitude, or any belief that
] pledged myself specifically to one
and only one amendment or set of
amendments, or that l would not be
satisfied with any amendment which
preserved the essential features of the
Hepburn bill as it came from the
house."
Not Debating Amy Programme.
The president says that as to many
of the amendments the so
called Long, Overman, Bacon and
SpOoner amendments-he had said he
should be entirely satisfied to have
them in the bill, and suggested modifi-
cations as to other amendments, but
that ''as to none [of the amendments
did ever say either to Mr.. Chandler
or to any one else that I should in
gist upon having them in the bill as
condition of my approval and that on
the contrary he (the president was
careful to state that he was not try
ing to dictate any particular pro-
gramme of action. The president says
the statements made to Chandler were
the same in substance as those made
to Allison and other senators of both
parties.
