Fairview, Lincoln, Neb., July 19.- The statement of W. H. Taft at Hot Springs, Va, yesterday that the repub- lican ational committee would not ac- cept any contributions from corpora tions in his campaign was viewed with more than ordinary interest. MT. Bry- an was so impressed with the an- nouncement that he broke his usual silence and dictated the following statement:
 We welcome him to the advanced grade and bid him to go further and announc; that all individual contribu- tions Der reasonable minimum will be made known before the election"
 The fact that today was Sunday did not deter a number of persons fro n coming to Fairview. The most impor- tant caller was Mayor James Dahlman of Omaha, who was closeted with MT. Bryan for some time, but neither of them would discuss the subject of the conversation.
 Late tonight Frank S. Monnett, former republican attorney general of Ohio, who conducted the prosecutions in that state against the Standard oil company, and

 Out on the big ships hundreds of visit ors were made welcome and every yacht and private launch In the bay was pressed into service to carry parties of pleasure-seellers to and from the anch- ored warships. A feature of the enter tainment of the fleet today was the pre- sentation of hundreds of tons of fruits and deicacies of all kinds to the various ships.

CLEVELAND LOSES
 ON CHEAP FARES
THREE CENT STREET CAR RATE PANS OUT POORLY FOR FIRST THREE MONTHS OFFICIALS HOPE FOR BETTER RETURNS.

Cleveland, O.. July 19.-Cleveland has had nearly three months of scent street car fare and two of the monthly reports have shown a deficit similar report is predicted for July. The operating ex- penses and fixed charges have been from $4O,o0o to over $5O,0O0 month in excess of the earnings.
 The Municipal Traction company, which is operating the local lines under lease, also is under promise to give free trans fers July 2S The revenue from trans fers has been about $S0,O00 a month, cent each having been charged.
 Several weeks ago President A. B. Du- Pont of the operating company stated that he expected the company to lose money during the first year. One draw back the company sustained was the strike in May, when very few patronized the cars This was followed, not only by heavy strike expenses, but inexperienced conductors who did not collect all of the fares The officials of the company still expressed the belief that Scent fares will pay in time.
 "The property will not be turned back 10 the old company if we have to charge the highest rate of fare allowed by our franchise" President DuPont has said.
 The franchise permits a rate of six tick cts for 25 cents.

PRINCE OF WALES
 COMES WEDNESDAY Quaint Old City of Quebec Is
 in a Culver GREAT HISTORIC EVENT Third Centennial of Founding of Cana dian City by the French Navi- gator, champlain-Fairbanks
 Represents Uncle Sam.
GREAT HISTORIC EVENT

Quebec, July 19.-This quaint old city is in futter of anticipation over the arrival of H. R. H., the Prince of Wales, who will sail into the harbor next Wednesday aboard the new British bat tleship Indomitable, to inaugurate the S00th anniversary of the founding of Quebec by the French navigator Cham plain.
 The coming of the future King of Eng land is a significant event. in which all Canada is deeply interested, for aside from the pageantry of royal visit it is a notable expression of the strong bonds now existing between the imperial government and its American colony.
 Great masses of troops are being as sembled here to do honor to the future monarch, and to take part in the Cham plain exercises. The harbor already pre- sents a stirring naval spectacle with tue British battleships Exmouth. Albemarle, Russell and Duncan and the cruisers Venus and Arrogant the French battle ships Leon Gambretta and Admiral Aupe, which will soon be joined by the United States battleshp New Hampshire and later by the Prince of Wales squadron, the Indomitable, the Minitaur and other ships the whole presenting an assem- blaze of the latest Dreadnought types of the three foremost naval powers.
 Although the founding of Quebec is the primary purpose of the celebration, the coming of the Prince of Wales, Field Marshal Lord Roberts, the Duke of Nor folk and many other notable personages is proving of far greater interest than the historical exercises.
 The princes official station surrounds him with all the pomp of the royal fam fly. and he comes here with a lengthy retinue of titled attendants and all the splcndor of a future king. He will be quartered in the Citadel, a grim old Tor tress perched 400 feet above the St Law renee.
 The quarters of his royal highness have been elaborately prepared, with comfort and elegance within, and with gardens and promenades without, commanding superb view of the old city and harbor lying hundreds of feet below
 Lord Roberts is also quartered in the citadel The srizzled old hero of Kip ling's ballads and South African cam paigns, is already the idol of the as- sembled soldery.
 Vice President Fairbanks, who is to represent the United States government, is expected to arrive next Tuesday in time to be present at the welcome extended to the Prince of Wales.

TESTS AT FORT MEYER
 ATTRACT ATTENTION
Aerostatic Corps May Be Established m the Navy if the Tests This Week Are SuccessfuI-Ad-
 Vantaees Cited.

Washington, July 19.-"In the next war that is fought the advance column r,,1 pe made up of balloons and airships.,
 rms IS the belief freely expressed hv army and navy officers here. For tb,s particular reason the army balloon tasts which are to begin at Fort Never na>,+ week VIII receive much attention in mil itary circles. It is understood that sa,,- eral of the military attaches of the d,,, lomatic corps will be at Fort Meva,. = take notes and report to their resnec- tive governments.
 one Of the important results of tba Fort Meyer tests probably will he inc a.. taoiishment of aerostatlc corps in tba navy.
 Asslstant Secretary of the Navy New perry will be one of the interested snee- tators. He has been following closely tta progress in ballooning and has reoueste,J general Allen of the signal corps to noti- " him when the trials at Fort Mevar VIII take place. It is understood that +b, American airship and balloon corporation Is building drigible balloon to be tried out before naval board when com pleted.
 Another enthusiast in the navy Is Roar Admiral Chester of the bureau of eouip ment. Admiral Chester claims that aera- nautics would be an adjunct of the navy because the mariner is specially fitted to deal with the conditions that are met with in the air Lieutenant Robert Hen derson, chief engineer of the battleshiD Missouri has made extensive experiments having for their object the application of the gyroscope to flying machines. He has the support of Admiral Chester and other naval officers in recommending the establishment of corps in the navy to be devoted to the application of aeronau- tics to naval warfare.
 The advantage to be derived from such corps. properly equipped was clearly demonstrated in the apanese-Russiarl war, when balloons were for the first time employed in naval defense, although the idea had existed for some time
 At Vladivostok in the recent war, after a Russian destroyer and cruiser had been damaged by Japanese mines, Admiral Yessen requested that balloon detach- ment be formed to make observations around the harbor of Vladivostok The results were so convincing that the Rus sian government. taking advantage of an offer of 100000 rubles, made by Count Estroganov for that purpose, bought a. fast passenger steamer in Germany and fitted it up as floating depot for the balloon detachment.

 MT. Monnett said that he was author ized by MT.

 CASE IS DEVELOPED
Bullet Holes Found in the Body of Mrs oteia Ebehar Which Had Also Been Manged by Gar Wheels -Oteia Eberhard, Her Daughter, Is Wounded
 and Tells Strange Story.

around there until evening when c shower came up and in the darkness trying to find their way they stumbled over railroad track. At the Coal burg coal pockets. the girl saw flash between two cars and heard revolver shot followed by a series of shots.
 Consciousness left her then. She had been struck three times by bullets, re- eeiving slight wounds. Recovering con- sciousness shortly afterwards, she found her way to farm house whose inmates bound up her wounds and es- corted her to Hackensack today. By that time the coroner was working on her mothers case. Miss Eberhard says her mother had $2200 in United States currency and $500 in German notes when they left for their excursion. Tn; s2s00 was missing when the body was found
 The police say that Eberhard. too may have been murdered, and his bodH disposed of. They are making every effort to locate him if he is alive.
