liam Pinkey Whyte United States
senator. to serve in place OF the late
Senator German until the sext legis.
lature can elect successor. which
will be in 1908. The appointment
gives the greatest satisfaction In the
state. Ex-Governor Whyte is not only
one of the leaders of the Baltimore
bar but Is the grand old man of the
Democratic party in Maryland. He
was In the United tates senate from
1875 to 1880 and Governor before that
time, from 1871 to 1874. besides hold
ing many other important Offices. Mr..
,Whyte is past so years of age but pos
sesses all the vigor of youth.
For years the ex-governor and Sen
ator German were bitter political en-
emies, German having been the man
who rested control of the state from
Whyte and defeated him for reelec-
tion to the Senate. During the late
years the ex-governor had not been
identified with any of the party fac
tions, though he could usually be
found with the organization.

Pittsburg, Pa, June 8.-The sup
ports Of a large water tank on the
roof of the Fite building, 537 to 545
Liberty street, occupied by nearly a
score of mercantile and light manufac-
turing concerns, collapsed this after
noon, causing the tank to crash
through from the roof to the base
ment, wrecking the rear part of the
building, and injuring nine persons.
Scores who went down in the wreck
age escaped with slight bruises and
left before their names could be learn
ed. The accident created great ex-
citement, occurring as it did, in the
heart of the wholesale district and
first reports were that several hun
dred had been killed or injured.
The injured:
street, injured internally; condition Sc
rious.
Thomas S. Mercer, 214 Ophelia
street, shoe manufacturer, cut about
head and face.
Mrs. Minnie Beck, II Southern Ave
nue., injured about lower part of body
and back sprained.
Sue Ross, 45 Vickrey street, cut

All of the injured were removed to
hospitals, four ambulances being on
the scene a short time after the acci
dent occurred.
The collapsed building was a four
story brick structure. The most OF
the third floor was occupied by the
Thomas Mercer and Sons Shoe Com
pany, employing a large number OF
women and girls. Most Of the iniur
ed were employed by that concern
which was directly in the path of the

known in the House of Representa-

ing resolution which he will try to
press to consideration:
Whereas, the publication of the So
called Neill-Reynolds report, purport-
ing to give the alleged unsanitary
conditions existing at the Chicago

had the immediate, far reaching, un-
merited and baneful effect of prejudic-

and
Whereas there are hundreds of stock

Resolved, That the Secretary of Ag

the healthfulness of the products com

illustrative staff of the Bureau of

made public corroborates the charges
of shocking indecencies and abuses

Accounts for Improvement.
The president in his letter of trans

now being made in the packing hous-

Cambridge City, Ind, June s.-Be-
cause of alleged jealousy, Harry Hos
hour of Milton, fired three shots at A.
H. Hodson, a Cambridge City livery
man late Thursday night, one bullet
passing through the sleeve of his coat.
The latter also used his revolver, fir
ing several times at Hoshour, but none
of the shots took effect. The affray
occurred south of Cambridge City in
front of the home of young woman
whom Hodson had just assisted into
the house after a buggy ride. Hoshour
lay in wait, it is alleged, and as Hod-
son was about to start homeward he
fired upon him. No arrests were
made and no warrants had been issued
up to last evening. Hoshour is re-
ported to have left Milton early yester-
day morning. One report circulated
was to the effect that Hodson had
been slightly wounded in the hand.

Trustees of the Institution
Will Appeal to City Council
for Aid.
MANY CHARITY PATIENTS
NONE is TURNED AWAY AT THE
HOSPITAL AND FOR THIS REA.
SON THE ENDOWMENT is NOT
SUFFICIENT.


1t Is probable that at the next meet
ing of council the trustees of the Reid
Memorial Hospital will make an ap.
peal for n special fund to be appropri.
ated for the care of the charity pa.
tients at the institution. Just how
much of an appropriation will be ask
ed for is not yet known as the trus-
tees have not yet decided what sum
will be needed.
John l.. Rupe, one of the trustees of
the institution, was asked yesterday
If the income derived by the hospital
from is endowment fund of $25, 900
was not sufficient for the expenses of
the institution. For the general ex.
penses 1T is" Mr.. Rupe replied, but
we care for SO many charity patients
that the total expenses are greater
than our income"
Mr.. Rupe, when asked If the CITY
won ldbe appealed to for assistance,
replied that it probably would be.
He stated that two plans to solve the
problem of caring for the charity pa.
tients, were being considered. The
first plan was to solicit fund from
the friends of the hospital in this city
and the other plan was to ask council
to appropriate annually a sum suffi.
cient for the expenses of this class of
patients. 1t is thought that the lat.
ter plan will be decided upon. At
the last council meeting Councilman
Leftwick intimated that he would pre-.
sent an ordinance appropriating mon
ey for this purpose, probably at the
next meeting.
one-Thrd Are Charity Cases.
Since the opening of the hospital
about one-third of the cases that have
been cared for at the hospital have
been charity patients When the en-.
dowment fund was first raised II was
thought that the annual income
which would be derived from it,
amounting to about $1,500, would be
sufficient, with the income derived
from those who were not charity pa.
tients, for the expenses of the hospital.
These calculations. however, were all
upset by the large number of charity

to care for. Patients suffering with
consumption and contagious diseases
are not received at the institution, but
there has never been charity case
suffering from disease other than
these, turned away from the doors
| In many cases people came to the
hospital to be treated, who asked for
terms, which are very low, and were
| unable to meet them. These cases
were not turned away, but taken In
and cared for at terms dictated by the
patients. In few cases, patients
to whom the hospital terms were ac.
ceptable, were treated, and on being
discharged as cured. refused to meet
their obligations. The policy of the
hospital authorities has always been
most liberal and it Is for this reason
that the income from the endowment
fund has been found insufficient to
meet the expenses. II is the general
opinion that the city should come
promptly to the assistance of the most
worthy institutions in the city.

But $1,000 Lacking to Make
Possible the Carnegie L.
brary for EarIham.
TUESDAY is THE LAST DAY
If LIBRARY is SECURED WORK
ON BUILDING WILL PROBABLY
OF BRICK.

Tuesday the trustees of Earlham
College will meet in their most i'm
portant session of the college year,
and at that time the fund of 100000
needed to secure a gift of similar
amount from Andrew Carnegie must
be raised. Last night the fund
had reached 2S,5OO, lacking $1,000 of
the needed amount.
Prof. Harlow Lindley, who has been
actively in charge of raising the fund,
said last night that he felt certain that
the friends of the institution would not
allow $500 to defeat their efforts to
secure a munificent gift of 100000. In
fact, he felt so certain of the money
being secured that he expressed his
views on the kind of building to be
erected at the college, and the time for
begnnng actual work on it. Prof.
Lindley has been examining different
library buildings on his visits to other
cities and has been making a study of
library archite cture. He feels that
Earlham should have a brick building,
two stories high, with stone trimmings
to correspond with the other buildings
on the campus. He thinks that the
plans for the building should be
drawn this summer and the ground
broken preparatory to laying the
foundation this fall. Prof Lindley
thinks the new library building should
be ready for occupancy by the fall of
1907. 1t would be his plan to c3ll it
the Earlham library rather than the
Carnegie library.
