BOY CYCLISY HURT
William Lovelace, Thrown from Wheel on Hill, May Lose
 Right Eye.
NOT SPEEDING, SAY FRIENDS
Wheel Broken at Crown, and This May Have Been Cause of
 Accident.

While out bicycling with two com rades of about his own age yesterday morning William Lovelace. eighteen years of age, of 136 Orchard street. was quito badly hurt by being thrown from hIs wheel. The boys had gone out for morning spin and were com Ing down the hill at Fountain street. in Westville. when the accident occurred According tc the story of Elmer Proc tor, also of l36 orchard street, who was one of the party, the injured boy was back of him Proctor came down the hill at fast rate of speed, and tenn porarily lost control of the bicycle. Just then he heard call for help and when he got control of his wheel again he dismounted, and upon looking back saw Loveace lying in the road waving to him.
 In the meantime, Rinehart Ginter, the third In the party. had reached Love lace, and was assisting him. Finding that he was badly hurt he called for tho assistance of two men near by. and they placed the injured lad in q wagon, and drove him tp his home.
 Dr. O'Brien was summoned He found that the right side of tho lads face was badly cut. The worst part of the fall seemed to have caught him right above the eye, which was serious ly injured. The sight may be affected. although the doctor stated that he was hopeful such would not be the case Just how badly the eye was hurt can not be determined for another day, tho doctor said.
 The sid; of the face and The mouth arc also badly cut and bruised. It ls l thought the lad will be all right in a ! few days, unless serious trouble results from the injury to the eye,
 According to Ginter, neither he nor Loveisce were coastng, and they had good control of their machines, Spec tators also say that the lad who was injured was not riding fast on the dowr grade When picked up it was found that the crown owe: the right front ot the bicycle was broken and the father and Proctor believe that the break oc. cured while he was riding, and thi, was the cause of the accident instead of loss of control of the wheel,

CRUISER NOT WRECKED
Anchoring of Colorado in Straits Gives
 Rise to False Report.

Seattle. Wash. June i4.-Tonight Captain Underwood. of the cruiser Col orado which last night was falsely re- ported as aground at Dungeness Spit. reported a rough voyage all the way up the coast from California, but he declared that the cruiser was at no time In danger. He did not lose his reckoning in the straits of Fuca, he says, and only anchored to avoid any possible mlshap to his ship
 At 6 o'clock last night, three hours after the cruiser had entered the straits the fog lifted and the Colorado was seen close to shore at Dungeness Spit, 20 miles to the east. Immediately the report spread that she had gone ashore.
 The Colorado and the Pennsylvania, both bound for Bremerton, reached Puget Sound tonight.

J.P. MORGAN TO BE GIVEN THE LID. DEGREE Yale to Confer Honored Title on Great Financier at
 Commencement
 Exercises. NOW ON WAY FROM EUROPE easons Why the University Should Look With Friendly
 Eyes Upon Finan-
 cial King.
NOW ON WAY FROM EUROPE

The announcement has been made on the other side of the Atlantic Ocean that J. Pierpont Morgan has brought his long vacation abroad to a close, sailing on Saturday, in order to keep an engagement at the com mencement exercises of Yale universl- ty next week. This slip of the tongue has set other tongues a-wagging and the conclusion reached that Yale pro- poses next week to confer upon the distinguished fnancicr the honorary degree of LID, the highest degree Yale can give for distinction in any field of work
 It .s argued that there are three reasons why Yale should look with friendly eyes upon Mir. Morgan before any other of the great financiers of the country, and it is th. settled policy of the venerable university to single out for her great honors men who have achieved notable successes or performed deeds of lasting public service. In the first place Mir. Nor gan is recognized as the powerful force which last fall compelled the banks and the reserve centers of New York to come to the relief of the financial situation. It was Mir Nor gan rather than either the admnis.ra- ton or the secretary of the treasury who alone saw and appreciated tho delicacy of the undertaking and was ready to meet 1t with any sacrifice necessary. It is fully within the scope of Yale's policy to recognize notable deeds of this character.
 In the second place Mir. Morgan is native of Connecticut. having been born In the city of Hartford. Tn the third place he is a director of the New Haven railroad company which 1t is said he watches with more dili. gence and care than any other of his large investments. For these three reasons coupled with the probably nadvertent statement that an engage ment with Yale required his cuttlns short his visit abroad. 1t Is accepted that he is to be included hereafter among the brotherhood of old Eli.
 Mir. Morgan doubtless will be th' guest of President Charles s. Weller of the New Haven road. Ii is an in teresting fact In connection with th announcement that two years ago MT. Mellen was given the degree O Master of Arts by Yale university.
 No confirmation of the rumor tha Mir. Morgan is to receive a degree cal be had from university officials wh, hold such secrets as commencement honors close to their breasts.

HEAT SUPPLY CONCERN TO
 QUIT SERVICE Absorbed by United Illumin- ating Company, Steam Heating System Ceases
 Operations. BUSINESS NOT PROFITABLE Statement Issued That 25. Years Experience Shows
 Idea Cannot Be Made
 to Pay Here.
BUSINESS NOT PROFITABLE !

After twenty-five years of service in this city the New Haven Heat Supply company, which, during that period of time, has served large number of places about the city, including some hotels and large apartment houses with their steam heat for the winter months, has announced to its patrons that it will cease to do so henceforth and will retire from the field Notices have been put in the mall which will reach the patrons by this morning notifying them to this effect. The causes which are contained in the short printed notice are that after the length of service the present system Is worn out and in or-l der to continue business the construc- tion of an entirely new system would be required The experience of the cons pany 1t Is stated has demonstrated that the steam heating business cannot be- made to pay even expenses and so the company retlres from operation.
 The Heat Supply company has fur- nished steam heat to its patrons by the means of underground pipes which run under the principal streets of the city from its main heater in George street. The pipes are laid in a similar manner to the coniuits of the telephone company There has been considerable complaint of late on account of tho large amount of escaping steam from the pipes which 1t is claimed is detri-, mental to the pavements of the street9l such as Chapel and Church streetN where 1t occurs most. In fact this wks becoming quite a problem which will | now be solved of course by the ceasing of operations by the company.
 | The action of the company, however. will open up quite problem to the large number of patrons who have de- pended upon the system to supply them
 with heat. These places have not of course provided themselves with fur
 naces for the supply of their own heat
 and between now and next fall they | will all have to instair plants for fur
 nishing their own heat. This will in-
 volve considerable expense and work
 in the case of number of the places
