Mayor Batty Sends
Annual Message to
Council

Special to Evening Teller.
Grangevile, Idaho, June 9.-The
annual message of Mayor Fen Batty
has been received by the city council
and has occasioned wide spread fav-
orable comment in Grangeville.
Mayor Batty introduces his message
with review of the happenings Of
the past year. the prospects for the
future and presents the conditions as
they are today and under which the
council will legislate for the ensuing
year. The message is broad in its
comprehensiveness and if followed out
by the council will provide plans for
the future Grangeville that can be
added to as requirements demand
without loss on work already per-
formed
The following is the mayors intro
ductory:
To the Honorable City Council Of
the City of Grangeville. Idaho-Gen-
tlemen: AS the beginning Of a new
fiscal year, I wish to remind you that
the disastrous fire of last September
has affected the revenues of the city
treasury to such an extent that you
will be called upon to scrutinize on
behalf Of the city government and to
economic in every way, at the same
time bearing in mind the needs Of the
city in the way Of material develop
ment and permanent improvements.
EN- the fiscal year just closed the
city treasury lost materially from the
loss Of license revenues from the loss
OF business establishments which were
burned out. During the present fiscal
year the city will lose not only those
license revenues, but also considerable
tax money in the burned district.
You. being taxpayers as we'll as city
officers. will therefore have a direct
personal as we'll as official interest in
reducing expenditures to the minimum
in order that the rate Of taxation for
city purposes be not increased.
therefore urge upon you the necessity
Of watching your expenditures on be-
half of the city as closely as possible
all along the line
The message then takes up the
water system for which the city is now
negotiating purchase. The import
ance of economical measures in con-
Quoting the business Of the city is
urged.
The building of the railroad and the
accompanying benefits to the town are
reviewed and the council Is advised to
proceed with the plans Of establishing
the sewer system so that work can
commence without interruption as
soon as the railroad is completed into
the town.
The general health and welfare Of
the city. the license question and the
Improvement of street conditions are
recommended to the council as matters
that should receive their careful atten-
tion during the year.

a. Hackbarth, owner of the Golden
Rule mill on Lapwai creek, will con-
struct lumber fiume to Canyon City,

ern Pacific being constructed out of
Cudesac. The tlume will be Az miles

Gently purchased fifty lots in the new
townste and expects to have the flume
ready for operation as soon as the
railroad Is completed.
The fume will be fed by the waters
of Lapwai creek and will follow the
creek canyon the entire distance. The
creek will supply sufficient water for
fluming lumber for at least seven
months in the year and will greatly
reduce the price of delivering the pro-
ducts of the mill to the railroad 1t
is estimated the saving will be more
than So per thousand, which will in a
short time pay for the construction Of
the f1ume.
The investment by Mr.. Hackbarth
is the result Of the great saving made
by Colby, Coryell & Howe in the con-
struction OF the f1ume from their
Winchester mill to Jacques Spur. This
fiume is S1s miles in length and was
constructed at cost Of over $11. 900
The saving this year is estimated at
$4,000 in the delivery Of that portion
OF the mills cut handled by the new
carrier. The mill will handle at least
5000. 900 feet by the flume this season
and saving Of So is made on each

Nezperce
Mr.. Ramey operates a large sawmill
plant on Russells ridge and states the
greater portion of his cut will be de-
livered to the railroad at Orofino when
the bridge is constructed.
THE building OF the bridge will es-
tablish the chief crossing Of the river

business Of the bridge should give fair
returns to the investors aside from
the general increase in all commercial
lines and the reduction in ferry ex-
penses to the farmers"

The Auto and the Aorao.

A farmer In Cadix. Ind, recently
lacked up his automobile to serve in
lieu OF broken engine in the Smelling
Of corn and cutting of fodder for his
live stock and horses. The latter, says
the New York Sun. partook Of their
share Of the feed without showing and
hard feeling toward their deadly rival
the auto.
One man, who has been touring the
country. says that the horses have &C
cepted the automobile more gracefully
than the farmers have.
He tells the story OF an automobilist
who met an elderly couple driving q
slkittish horse. which decidedly object

JOHN FIELD, MERCHANT,
LOST MIND WITH MONEY.

John Field, once postmaster of Phil
adelphia, a member of the old whole
sale dry goods house OF Young, Smyth,
Field & Co, shot and killed himself in
Paramount park while insane. He
came from ireland when he was IA
years old and began as errand boy in
the house which he subsequently con
trolled. The firm did an immense bust
ness and in addition to branches in
Baltimore, Cincinnati, indianapolis
and San Francisco. carried on a bank
ing business in Saxony.
IL never was definite known how
Mr.. Field impaired his fortune, but the
general belief was that it was due to
speculation in realty, which he knew
nothing about. This so affected his
mind hat he developed a suicidal
mania.

WILLIAM M. SINCERELY,
NEWSPAPER PUBLISHER.

William NJ. Sipgerly, proprietor of
the Philadelphia Record, president of
the Chestnut Street National bank
and the Chestnut Street Trust com
pany, died under circumstances which
pointed Enthusiastically TO a death self
inflicted. Cyanide of potassium is be-
lieved to have been the agent, but so
far as the records of the %coroner's Of
flee go, that cause is not ascribed.
Notwithstanding this official yelling
no one in Philadelphia familiarwith the
wild and reckless peculation in which
Singerly was involved. and which re-
suited in the failure of the banks in
which he was interested, believes that
he died a natural death.
Singerly was a peculiar combination.
He was born in Philadelphia in 1892.
His father was a pioneer in street
a transportation and made a fortune.
In his young manhood William M.
Singerly developed a liking for conviy-
tality, which resulted in his income
being cut off, and he was put 10 work
as a car conductor at a small salary.
This enforced employment brought
about a reformation after he had pass
ed his thirty-ffth year. He then dis
played qualities of shrewd business
sense which it was not believed he
possessed.

BENJAMIN H.. GASkUlL,
BROKER, THIEF, FORGER.

BENJAMIN III. Gaskill was one of the
most noted eXemplars of fraudulent
finance, who cheated his friends and
then killed himself TO avoid facing
them. He was a thief and a forger,
but this discovery vas not made until
after his death. II his lifetime Gaskill
enjoyed the respect and esteem of
his business associates. His reputa-
ton for probity was of the best, and
his credit was gilt-edged. After his
suicide a diary was found among his
effects in which he spoke of himself
as a Jekyll and Hyde. He wrote that
he could not make himself understood
to sordid minds and that his aspira-
tons We're too high for the ordinary
mortal TO. grasp.
Gaskill was not as pronounced a
~churchman as Nipple. but he made a
practice of keeping up a friendship
with churchgoers. His forgeries forced
the City Trust, Safe Deposit & Surety
company into bankruptcy. His meth
DDS were ingenious. and he reaped
something like a million dollars. 1t
was not exactly wildcat speculation in
his case. Is was rather the credulity
and trustfulness of those ne %defrauded
that brought him the enormous re-
turns. Accidental discovery drove him
to suicide,

JOSEPH G. DiTMAN,
DROWNED,

Joseph G. Ditman, president of the
Quaker City National bank, disap-

it was believed he had been robbed
and murdered. After a drive through
Paramount park his empty carriage
and the horse were found. Search for
the banker continued for a month.
Detectives went to all parts of the
United States and large rewards were
offered. Forty days after his disap-
pearance the de~composed body OF the
banker was found floating in the
Schuylkill river.
- Ditmany was brought up in the paper
manufacturing business, and abandon'
ed it TO 80 into banking He discount
ed paper for his old-time associates on
the fimsiest sort Of collateral. He
sunk thousands OF dollars in a silver
mine in South Carolina. He went into
the printing business to recoup his
losses, and lost more, and in less than
two years, through his wildcat specula-
ton, and lack OF care, he was stripped
of every dollar he possessed. His
mind became affected and the suicide
theory was generally accepted, not.
withstanding the judgment of the cor
oner's jury that he was drowned by
accident.

JOSIAH r. ADAMS, VICTIM
OF POLITICAL ATTACK.

: Josiah X. Adams, a prominent club
ma and a lawyer and a noted figure
in the most exclusive set of Philadel-
phia's fashionable world, kill ed himI
sch in a hotel in Philadelphia, six
years ago. Adams was a man of rare
culture. He took a liking for the ey-
element of political life, and affiliated
himself with the Quaysmachine lie
/, was nominated for.judge of the supe-
rior court. A u ter attack was made
upon him by a local newspaper. He
was accused of having ~conspired with
another man to defraud the public by
"a get-rich-quick scheme, in which it
was alleged that hundreds of persons
were induced to invest TO their sor-
row.
Adams made a weak denial to the
charge, and withdrew from the ticket.
He recovered, from the blow.
On the day he shot himself he kissed
his wife affectionately, left her, and in
five minutes was dying from a bullet
wound in the head.
