Details of the invention are kept
secret by the navy department. because
of an unwillingness to inform foreign
powers of their nature.
The system will be of incalculable
advantage in peace and war maneuv-
ers. The only objection IS that inter-
ference is possible as in wireless tele-
graphy. but aside from this wireless
telephones win be of great service.

relegated to a question of speed.
Walter George Smith of Philadelphia,
who last night read a paper on the
topic, spoke at some length on the mat
ter of the domicile of parties to a di-
vorce suit, and showed the inconsIst-
ency of the various state laws on tnat
matter.

scented by Mr.. Smith and referred to
the executive council. to be reported
upon later

pointed by this association. with pow er

POWERDEVELOPS.
ASSLUICESO OPEN
Butterfly Dam at Lockport
Opened and the Water
BUSHES Through.
DAM COSTS $4,000
Great Drainage Project Is Nearing
Completion and Success
Is Assured.

Chicago, Aug. 31-With the open
ing of the newly completed butter
fly" dam yesterday at Lockport, on
the drainage canal, the waters of Lake
Michigan. carrying with it the sewage
of Chicago, were turned into the head
race at the power plant. The event
slgnalized the accomplishment of an
other step toward the conversion of
Chicago's sewage into power enough to
run all the manufacturing plants of
the northern part of the state.
With a roar of rushing waters that
gave a vague idea of the mighty forces
shortly to be converted into energy for
commercial purposes. the sideways of
the dam were opened at 1870 o'clock
and the waters Of the drainage canal
began to fill the great turning basin
that extends for more than mile
above the new power house Of the
sanitory district north of Joliet.
President Mccormick of the sanitary
district Drainage Trustees Clark, Will
nams, and Novak, former Chief Engi-
neer Randolph Engineer Wisner,
Electrician Elleiott, and many other Of
ficials of the district were present.
CofFerdam Tern Out.
Several days ago the concrete wall
that has held back the waters of Lake
Michigan ever since they We're turned
into the channel was blasted out and
only the cofferdam stood between the
force OF water and the new channel
extension Yesterday afternoon a part
of this cofferdam was torn out and
the machinery of the butterfly dam
was set in motion.
The butterfly dam has large num-
Der Of valves that can be opened or
closed, controlling absolutely the
amount of water passing through.
Yesterday six of these valves were
opened permitting about $500 feet Of
water per second to pass through.
Three shifts of two men each will be
on guard constantly, although Presi-
dent Mccormick stated todo<y that he
did not think the butterfly dam would
ever be closed after it was opened. as
he believes there will be no necessity
for closing it.
Dam Costs 100000.
The new dam. which was built at
a cost of $4,000 and a years work.
will not be completely opened for a
week. Then it Is expected that enough
water will have run through the sluices
to permit the turning of the dam 5
wings. These are pivoted in the center
OF the stream, and when open they
lie side by side. like the wings of
a huge butterfly. in the middle of the
channel. and from the nature of the
construction the dam takes its name.
The dam is built entirely of steel,
with two main piers and two abut-
ments of stone. The entire construc-
ton weights IL. coo tons. A tunnel con-
meets the center work on which the
draw rests with the shore.

MOORS WHIPPED
IN FIERCE FRAY
Terrible Slaughter When
French Forces Routs $4,000
Tribesmen at Casablanca.

Casablanca. Aug 20.-The fighting
yesterday near the French camp be-
tween the Moors and the forces under
Gen. Drude was one of the most seri-
Gus engagements since the occupation
of Casablanca. The Moorish attack
was quite unexpected and the tribes
men, as on previous occasions, showed
absolute fearlessness. The caid with
the red coat was again prominent in
the thickest of the fray.
This engagement, like that of Aug.
is, began with the ambushing of a
French accommodating party by Moor
ish cavalry. The French al first drove
the enemy off, but the natives received
reinforcements and this Obliged Gen.
Drude to send out detachment to ex-
tricate his accommodating party.
Form Square to Meet Attack.
After the contace 1t was be-
lieved that the engagement was over,
but as soon as the natives had been
reinforced they reappeared in great
numbers from two directions. The
Spahis and irregular cavalry. who
composed the accommodating party,
found themselves almost surrounded by
the second attack. but they formed a
square and slowly fell back until the
reinforcements arrived.
Then the tide of battle turned. Ma
tive auXiliaries charged the Moors, sa-
bering them furiously, and the enemy
finally broke and fed in disorder. In
the meanwhile the French warships
had showered shells into the hills
where the natives were sheltered
Battle Lasts Three Hours.
The engagement lasted three hours.
The line of battle extended over two
miles and it is estimated that over
$4,000 Moore were engaged. The loss
of the latter is not known, but it is
believed to have been heavy. French
officers counted the bodies OF twenty
Moors in one roadway. The French
loss was fifteen men killed or wounded.
This afternoon another French re-
Connoitering party was attacked by
1900 Moors. Tho natives, however,
were beaten off with the aid of the
guns of the cruisers Gloire and Guey-
don. These two vessels also bonn
tarded the beach beyond Casablanca,
where a force of Moorish cavalry had
gathered. The Moors were soon dis
persed by the fire.

PLEA FOR RELEASE
OF BANK WRECKER
Stensland Takes First Steps
in Fight for Release
From Penitentiary.

Paul o. Stensland has taken the first
step in his fight for release from the
Joliet state penitentiary.
The convicted president of the de-
] funct Milwaukee Avenue State bank,
who for eleven months has occupied
a cell at Joliet. made a formal appeal
to the state board of pardons for his
freedom on August p.
Failing eyesight and general physi-
cal breakdown are the grounds upon
which Stensland bases his plea The
appeal for clemency was backed with
statements of Drs. Marie Olsen and
Valborg Sogn, both of whom are living
with Mrs. Jnga Sandberg, Stensland's
daughter. They submitted to the
board reports on the former bankers
condition.
Stensland pleaded with the board for
more than an hour. after which Ethan
Allen Snively and Charles Eckhart, the
members who heard the appeal, prom
Used the former banker to again take
up the case next month, when the
board holds it's regular session

Il did not mean to do wrong" he is
reported to have said. and if you will
let me go on parole DIR give me par
don I will at once go to work and
will promise to pay all my old debts"
The former bank president, accord
ing to the two physicians who exam
ined him, is suffering with fatty de-
generation of the heart, chronic bron-
chitis. anaemja, emphysema. deficient
elimination, general breakdown, in
somnia mental anguish, threatened tu-
berculosis and a serious affection of
the eyes.
He denies forging documents, plac-
ing the responsibility of alleged for
geries upon other persons in the bank,
and particularly upon former Cashier
Herring.
Tells of Money In Bank.
When 1 left Chicago there was
nearly $500, 900 in the bank" Stensland
said, and I could have taken that
but l did not. I had $4,000 which the
Northwestern railroad had paid me for
work done in connection with securing
right of way. That money 1 took
with me on my flight, and added to
this $50, 900, which was on deposit there
to our credit"
The fact that DIR. Sogn and 1 are
friends of Mrs. Sandberg in no way
affects our professional opinion, con-
corning Mr.. Stenslands physical con-
dition," said Dr. Olsen. We became
interested In the case when Mr.. Stems
land was in Chicago testifying in mat
tiers pertaining to the receivership of
the Milwaukee Avenue State bank.
1T was then that Stensland almost

daughter, Mrs. Sandberg, became wor-
ried. At her solicitation DR.. Sogn and
myself examined him and we We're also
instrumental in securing him permits

BLOODHOUNDS TO
HELP The POLICE
New York Department Has
Bought Several For
Special Cases.

New York. Aug. 30.-Bloodhounds
are to be kept by the police department
for use in running down criminals, es-
pecially murderers and men who at
tack women and children in outlaying
districts.
BY direction of General Bingham,
Deputy Commissioner Woods has been
supervising experiments with dogs.
and as result he said today that a
dog department will be added to the
detective bureau.
Deputy Woods recently made trip
through Europe and noted the work
done by dogs in the service OF the po-
sells. where they have been successful
with the animals. Experiments direct
ed by Commissioner Bingham were
conducted in the upper part of the
state and species of bloodhound was
from all parts of the country and are
of the best breed that could be found.
Dogs Big Help.
The reports show that the expert
ments have been unusually successful.
In one case a young dog was put on a
trail that was four hours old. The
animal. however succeeded in tracking
the man through crowded city streets
to a house in which he was hiding.
Deputy Woods said he believed the
dogs would be of great service to the
police department lie cited cases OF
attacks on girls in outlaying districts
and said that in such cases the dogs
could be hurried TO the scene of the
crime and quickly placed on the track
of the criminals.

last evening on the first leg of the
annual triangular cruising race of the
