MEANS CONTROL OF TRADE
John Barrett Favors Deep Waterway
From Lakes to Gulf.


From Lakes to Gulf.
Chicago, Sept 10.-"The great Mid.
die West will control the trade of the
entire west coast of South America
when the Panama canal is completed,
providing the deep waterway from the
lakes to the gulf is constructed. Other.
wise it will be Japan, Germany and
England which will exercise CONNER
cial sway over this vast empire to be
opened up"
This statement was made by John
Barrett, director of the International
Bureau Of American Republics, who
has been in Chicago for several days
comforting with men interested in the
deep waterways proposition. It is his
contention that the federal govern
ment should lend all the aid neces-
sary for the construction of this ship
canal to make the great advantages of
the Panama canal available to the
Mississippi valley. Mr.. Barrett said:
1T is not excessive to estimate the
value of products which these repub-
lies will then be purchasing from for
eign countries at $500,O00,O0O.-
"The major portion of these supplies
will come from America if the great
manufacturing centers of the Middle
West are provided with water trans
portation. 1t requires no stretch of
Imagination to conceive boats or
barges loaded in Chicago, Joliet or
other points in this manufacturing
district making the entire trip. Amer.
lea has been slow to improve it's wa.
terways, much more so than any other
of the great powers, and it is time We
awoke to the advantages to be OBJ
tained"

PREDICTS GREAT FIRE.
New York Insurance Man Sees Danger
in Skyscrapers.

New York Insurance Man Sees Danger
in Skyscrapers. --
New York, Sept. ).-Opposition to
the building of skyscrapers was voiced
vigorously at a public hearing before
the commission on limitation of
height and area of buildings.
George w. Babb, president of the
New York board of fire underwriters,
said his board was expecting fire of
unprecedented size at any time in the
high buildings. He said it was the
belief of the fire underwriters that if
a fire started on the upper floors of
some of the highest buildings it could
not be checked, as the water pressure
is insufficient, and he feared it would
spread to many other high buildings,
entailing an enormous loss. His
board, he said, advocated limiting
buildings entirely for Office purposes
to 125 feet.
Calvin Tomkins, president of the
Municipal Art society, was also in
favor Of limitations. He said he be-
lieved the time was coming when sky
scrapers will be demolished to make
room for buildings built by the block.
He said the courts do not take proper
cognizance Of the easement of light
and air.

WIRE STRIKE NEAR END.
Rumors to That Effect Are Again in
Circulation.

Chicago, Sept. well defined re-
ports that the settlement Of the teleg-
raphers' strike is near at hand are
persistent among the striking oper.
Rtors.
Word has been received in Chicago
from w. w. Beattie, international vice
president Of the Telegraphers' union
In New York, that there is every rea-
son to hope for an early ending of
the struggle.
Rumors of an early settlement are
also based on the fact that Labor
Commissioner Neill is in New York
In conference with President Small of
the Commercial Photographers union
and President H. B. Perham of the
Order Of Railroad Telegraphers with
a view Of bringing about a settlement
Of troubles between the companies
and the key men.
During the conference Commissioner
NELL and President Small had long
talk over the long distance telephone
with President Gompers of the Amer
lean Federation of Labor at Washing
ton.

MAY RESUME BUSINESS.
Affairs of Watson G. Co. Not as Bad
as First Supposed.

Minneapolis, Sept. Developments
In the case of Watson & Co., the big
Minneapolis-New York grain commits
sion and Stock Exchange house that
was declared In financial difficulties
on Thursday, are so increasingly IA
vorable as to make it seem almost
certain that there soon will be a re.
sumption Of business.
No statement Of the exact standing
of the firm is yet possible, but the
showing of assets of nearly $1,0O0,O0O
available in the New York Office made
the situation better and as conditions
are brought out more in detail it ap-
pears that the firm Is much stronger
than was supposed when the an
nouncement Of the receivership was
made.
The statement that all claims will
be paid in full and that no one hay
ing money due from the firm will lose
dollar seems warranted.
The offices Of the firm, though not
accepting business, are open and all
connections have been maintained
and in the event of the perfection of
the necessary arrangements, which
now seems almost assured, business
can be resumed very promptly. H. P.
Watson said:
"The reports about the connection
Of Mr.. Hill with our firm are wholly
unwarranted. Neither Mr.. James J.
Hill or Mr.. Louis w. Hill ever had any
connection whatever with Watson &
Go. Neither Of them ever did any
business with us. We never had a
transaction for either Of them at any
time since we have been in BUSINESS"

Modest Contributors.

A man was coming up from Chun-
chen province with a sum of money
which had been subscribed for the pay
ment Of the public debt. He was met
by robbers, who took the money and
started away. He called after them
that the money was a subscription to
the fund for the raising Of the debt,
whereupon they came back and handed
him the money and begged his pardon
for their mistake, and they gave him
10 yen extra as contribution on their
own part. He asked their names to
publish in the papers, but they said
they did not want to obtain notoriety
in that way and declined, but said they
were glad to pay something toward
helping the country.-Korean News. H.

Why Shells Fly Straight.

Many people wonder why the cone
shaped projecriles in their fight
through the air do not wabble, but
drive straight ahead. This is easily
explained. Round the bottom of the
shell is a narrow band of copper which
varies in width according to the size Of
the projectile. Being made Of soft
metal, this band is cut by the steel
rifing of the gun on the shock Of ex-
plosion. This action causes the shell
to revolve with lightning rapidity, with
the result that it keeps steady during
it's fight through the air. - London

GERMANY GAINS POINT.
Secures Suppression of Articles to
Which She Objected.

The Hague, Sept. 10.-All the art
fcles concerning the treatment of SUBJ
jects of neutral powers in the terri
tory of belligerents, to which Germany
objected at the plenary conference
last Saturday, were suppressed by
the committee on land warfare after
a long and interesting discussion.
The delegate of the Grand Duchy of
Luxembourg, which, according to the
treaty Of London Of 1867, is neutral
territory, introduced a motion, which
was unanimously adopted, that the
powers urge their subjects when they
are in the territory of belligerents to
respect the laws regarding the OBJ.
servance of neutrality.

PROGRESS OF The PLAGUE
San Francisco People Believe Dr.. Blue
Will Quickly Stop II. -

San Francisco, Sept THE board
Of health has recommended to the
board of supervisors that the city and
county hospital, which has sheltered a
number of plague cases, be burned
The city and county hospital is COL
lection of frame buildings and it has
long been planned to demolish it.
The announcement that the marine
hospital service is to take charge of
the plague situation is regarded here
as an assurance that the progress Of
the disease will be stopped in short
order. DR.. Rupert Blue, who has been
assigned by Surgeon General Wyman
to direct the campaign, had charge
during the former appearance of the
plague and has the confidence of the
entire community.

USED COMPANY'S FUNDS.
Missing Head Of Chicago Concern Said
to Be Short $4,000.

Chicago, Sept. 1.-The appointment
Of a receiver for the properties of the
Belding-Hall Manufacturing company
followed closely upon the heels Of the
discovery by the creditors of the con.
oern that it's missing president, Jesse
Edison Hall. had appropriated to his
own use at least $4,000 Of the cor
poration's funds.
As far as can be discovered every
dollar Of this money went into mining
stock which was backed up with no
tangible property, theatrical ventures
which made no money and other Sc
ourities which the creditors are will
Ing to sell in lump for something
less than $4,000.
Indications are that Hall will not
voluntarily return from Canada and
that criminal prosecution will be in
stituted to bring him back to this
country by the First National bank,
which holds notes Of the company az
gregating 100000.

to be wearing an opera coat of fine
irish point lace, both of which were
undeclared. Thirty pieces of jewelry

waist of one of the young women.
Both women broke down and sobbed
after examination and protested their
innocence. The jewelry and lace were
seized by the officials, but the young
women were allowed to go.

terrific force into the engine Of the
freight, wrecking both engines and
telescoping the baggage and mail cars
and demolishing the smoking car, in
which a number of men were riding.
1t was among the occupants of this
car that the only injuries and fatali-

coaches that followed the smoker es-
capped with only a violent shaking up.
Rescuers were Immediately at hand
to care for the injured and to take
the dead from among the wreckage
There was great excitement and the
scene was one to make the stoutest
hearted man shudder.

new TRIAL GRAN TED
William F. BechteI Of Minneap-
oils May Go Free.
WITNESSES ARE SCATTERED
Verdict lnvalidated by the Alleged
Misconduct Of a Deputy Sheriff in
Charge Of the Jury at the Time of
the Trial. -

Minneapolis, Sept. 10.-William F.
Bechtel, former president of the North
western National Life Insurance COM
pany, who was sentenced on June 2S
to serve five years in prison at hard
labor after he had been convicted of
grand larceny from the Northwestern
National Life Insurance company Of
Minneapolis, has been granted a new
trial by Judge Dickinson.
Because it is unlikely that the coun-
ty attorneys office will be able to OBJ
tain some of the most important wit
nesses who figured in the prosecution
of the first case it is extremely doubt
full If Mr.. Bechtel will ever be placed
on trial again.
In granting the new trial Judge
Dickinson held that the verdict Of the
first trial was entirely invalidated by
the fact that Deputy Sheriff Robert
Hitler, who was in charge OF the jury,
made remarks in the hearing of the
jurymen, which he holds to have been
prejudicial and calculated to influence
the verdict.
In the motion for new trial affi-
davits by jurors have been introduced
showing that the deputy sheriff talked
before the jury in a way likely to in
f1uence the verdict.

New York, Sept. Mrs. Laura M.

IN the case. She was accused of having
received from Chester B. Runyan, the

company, $4,000 Of the $4,000 he
stole from the bank. One Of the Jurors
said that the jury agreed that the tes-
timony of Runyan, who was the prin-
ctpal witness against Mrs. Carter, be
ignored on the ground that he was a
self-confessed thief. Mrs. Carter adj
mitted getting $4,000 from Runyan,

had been stolen she returned 1t to
