to Henry L. WaGgaman Disappear.


Fifteen hundred shares of preferred
stock of the Emerson Drug Company
have been lost in the mails or otherwise
mislaid in coming from Silver City,
New Mexico, to Washington. Henry z.
Waggaman was the sender of the pa
pers, the value of which is enormous.
and John W. Brawner, the Washington

days ago.
Much concern was felt for the safety
of the stocks until it was discovered
that another certificate could be Sc
cured which would render the lost ones
void. Brawner said last night that he
could not account for the loss of the
original certificates, but that they
would now be of no value TO any one
but himself.

They pointed to the widespread reports
of other earthquakes throughout the

Lycoming, Clinton. Centre, Union, and
portions Of Northumberland counties were
aroused about 3 a. IN. by a series Of

CONSTITUTION IN
NAVAL MUSEUM

WASHINGTON. Aug. 2s.-The trans
fer of the United States frigate Con-
stitution from the navy yard at Bos-
ton to the United States naval acade-
my at Annapolis, there to take her
place with the other two historic ships
of the nation, the Hartford and the
Olympia. and serve for all time not
only as an inspiration to the thou
sands of future officers of the navy,
but as a museum of naval history, is
the program which has received the
approval of the navy department and
which the president doubtless soon will
order executed.
Extensive plans for the development
of the Boston navy yard are primarily
responsible for the determination to
transfer the Constitution, but the plan
appeals to the department strongly for
the reason that Annapolis is the home
of the navy. Nearly 1000 midshipmen
are there in training to become COM
manders and to keep the traditions of
the navy from John Paul Jones to
Dewey.
1t seems, therefore, fitting that the
fiagships of these famous commanders
should be preserved at Annapolis and
when the Constitution arrives the his
toric old frigate will be awarded the
most conspicuous berth.

The suit is brought at the direction
of the United States Circuit Court of
New York and ]. w. Hutchinson, coun-
sci for the Pennsylvania company, is
taking the dispositions of various Pa
cif1c coast sugar magnates, under an
order from the court which gives him
the power of compelling the testimony
of witnesses. D. B. Richards, a San
Francisco attorney, is acting as COM
missioner.
The suit against the Havemeyer
company is both for conspiracy and
for a violation of the Sherman anti
trust law. Under this law the receiv-
ers for the Pennsylvania concern are
asking damages, asserting that the
trust is acting in restraint of trade;
that it forced the Pennsylvania COM
pany from the sugar industry, and
controls over ninety per cent. Of the
cane sugar output of the country.
In connection with the evidence that
it was expected to get from Spreckels
it was thought that it would be shown
that the two companies had an agree
