GUARD AGAINST FIRE "A PRETTY TRIBUTE
Pennsylvania Train Crews to
Extinguish 1t When
Noticed.
TO PROTECT RIGHT OF WAY.

Logansport, Ind, Aug. S.-An order
was issued by Trainmaster S. F. John
ston to all Panhandle crews this morn
ing, instructing them to stop their
trains wherever they see fire that
threatens bridges and other railroad
property and to fight with the
flames until they are extinguished.
The report cites the action of GER
tain conductor who saw tie close to
trestle burning, and instead of put
ting out the fire or Immediately re-
porting it. waited until his train drew
in here. He reported then, but it was
too late, as the bridge was afire and
part of the structure was burned away
Conductors are cautioned not to fol-
low the example of this man. The re-
port says that sched dulles are to be
disregarded in case of fire that threat
ems the company's right-of-way. Crews
are warned especially to be alert re-
garding grass fires.

Dubuque Suspends Business
During Hours of Funeral
Of Senator Allison.
WAS BURIED AS HE LIVED.

Dubuque, Ia, Aug. S.-As he lived,
so was Senator William B. Allison bur-
led today in manner devoid of all
ostentation. Services were held at the
home of the dead statesman and while
not of private character, the limited
accommodations of the home permit
ted only the presence of the distin-
guished visitors and the most intimate
friends of the senator. The services
were simple. The Rev. J. T. Bergen,
of the Westminster Presbyterian
church, officiated. The burial was
private.
All Dubuque paid tribute to the
memory of Senator Allison today. Dur
ing the hours of the funeral ceremony
not a wheel turned throughout the
city and every business house closed
its doors. Flags hung at half-mast
from public buildings and hundreds of
homes and business houses were trim
med with crepe. The trolley poles
throughout the main thoroughfares of
the city were wound with black and
white.

is NO SETTLEMENT
Arrival of Baby Causes Com
pIications in Famous
Young Estate.
ESTATE WORTH s25, 900, 900

Chicago, August S.-The settlement
of the $25, 100000 trusted fortune left
by Otto Young, of this city, one of
the largest which has yet in the Unit
ed States been tied up in trust, has
been complicated by the arrival of
So, 100000 grandchild, Samuel K. Mar
tin, Jr., who Immediately became one
of the richest babies in his own right
In the world His arrival, however,
not only cost the six other heirs of the
Young fortune his portion, a seventh,
of the estate, but postponed the final
settlement of the trusteeship for p
years. He makes the seventh heir.
By the peculiar provisions of the
Young will the present fortune with
its accumulations is to go in equal
parts to the grandchildren, which
puts, therefore, a big premium upon
baby cousins of Samuel, Jr. Until
the baby came the Martins had no
claim upon the estate. The prospec-
tive share of Mrs. Celia Young Hey
worth was decreased by Samuel's APP
pearance from 25 to % per cent of the
whole, that of Mrs. Catherine o.
Young Hobart, by the sum of $685.
Under the terms of the trusteeship
the division cannot be made until the
youngest grandchild has attained II
years, and Samuel is the youngest
Young. The results in this case will
be interesting commentaries upon the
growing disposition of wealthy men
to trustee their estates, in much the
same manner as Marshall Field did
and many men in the east have done.
What effect the certainty of great
wealth will have upon the morals and
health of the heirs and also what eff
feet upon financial affairs the trustee
ing of such big sums will have, prob
ably will be we'll known by the time
this 100000 baby receives his share
of the Young fortune, if he does live
to receive it.

A LUMBER TRUST
Big Lumber Companies of the
West Will Join Together,
1t Is Claimed.
JUST CAUSE FOR ATTACK.

Chicago, ILL.,, Aug. SIS a $780,
100000 lumber trust in process of
formation? That great commercial
mystery, which Missouri and Kansas
are attacking, the big lumber COM
panies are active in denying the ex-
istence OF, but there is some excellent
evidence offered that the merger will
be made if the attorney generals of
those states or for Uncle Sam don't
prevent it. That meeting was re-
Gently held in ST. Louis to discuss
such consolidation is admitted,
Frederick e. Weyerhauser of ST. Paul
and Edward Hines of Chicago, among
those present. Later ]. B. White, of
Kansas City, made this statement:
ITS dream. Mr.. Weyerhauser as
much as told me that himself A
number of men met in st. Louis sew
eral weeks ago to discuss such a con-
solidation and appointed committee
to perfect the plan. When the COM
mittee left here the folly of the pro-
ject gradually dawned upon them"
During the lull in the lumber business
the golden opportunities of mergers
seem to dance in the fancies of the
lumber kings for, in spite of 'denials,
the rumor of consolidation still is
heard fitfully. Competition in the
soft lumber trade, it was said, was
running" prices, there being sharp
reduction that has been welcomed by
the public. That the big numbering
companies, which have denuded great
empires of their timber, wastefully,
wantonly and at ridiculous cost for
the stumpage, should now declare for
a preservation of the forests, as they
recently did, is looked upon as a sorry
kind of joke. The Northwestern
Lumbermens association at meeting
here recently declared: Forests
which should be protected from need
less destruction are allowed to be de-
stroyed simply from nonintel ference
either from the government or own
ers. All forests must be protected,
cultivated and nurtured to the fullest,
or the price of lumber and building
material will go far beyond the ordi-
nary purse

can fnu no fault with the building
when it is completed except that it is
too small Should the present rate of
increase continue the building will be
too small to handle the business of the

next December, but if the building is

scheduled time However, there will

women. The freshness, the charm, the

reasons for this change, ignorance and

Officers of Earl Motor Car Co. To
Offer Creditors Fifteen Per
Cent of Their Claims
FUTURE OF PLANT IN DOUBT

A little light on the affairs of the
Earl Motor Car Company is to be given
to the creditors in letter that is being
sent out today and while the company
is offering to pay but Is per cent Of
the claims at this time it is stated that
reorganization of the company is
possible and that if the company can
be kept out Of the bankruptcy courts
it may be possible to pull it through
and at some future time put it on
paying basis. In the letter the man
ayers of the company are frank in
speaking of the financial condition of
the company. They declare that the
company suspended operations some
time ago on account of lack of funds
and that since that time the officers
of the company have been attempting
to avoid bankruptcy proceedings and
arrange to save something for the ere
ditors. 1t is stated that all of the
property has been seized upon execu-
tions and attachments taken out by the
creditors and that unless an agreement
can be reached among the creditors it
will be impossible to pay anything on
the claims now outstanding.
The Is per cent dividend is offered as
a settlement for the claims it being
stated that there is little reason to
expect any more advantageous arrange
nent could be made for the creditors of
the company.
The letter states that the future of
tho company is entirely problematical
and that unless new capital can be in
terested the manufacture of the Earl
car will have to be abandoned. The
| officers are planning to treat ali credi-
tors alike and they are asking that the
creditors accept or turn down this plan
within the next fifteen days.
Tt is understood that some effort is
being made to interest Michigan capital
in the manufacture of the car, but the
capitalists who have been approached
are not willing to consider the matter
until after the debts of the old com
pany have been cleared up in some
manner. There are only a few credi
tors Of the company in Kenosha ant
the claims of the Kenosha creditors arr
in most cases very small.

1t must have been particularly in
excusable case Of selling to minors
and one indefensible from any stand
point that led to conviction under the
anti-cigarette law for generally speak
ing the law is not one that can be en-
forced in the courts with any degree
of success. The law would have been
easily enforceable and it would have
been easy enough to secure convictions
under it had it's application been con-
fined to minors as it should have been,
but in their zeal for reform the fran
ers of the law went too far and de-
feated their own ends by making the
law so strict as to make it ridiculous.
1t is matter of common knowledge
that the law is constantly being violat-
ed in every city in the state, but even
it's trainers would hardly 60 so far as to
claim that public sentiment would ap-
prove wholesale prosecutions under it.
