ALDERMEN OFF TO
VIEW WATERSHEDS.
Charles L. Ingraham Leads Party
of City Officials Through
North Jersey.

A party of aldermen, representing
the majority of the members of the
Common Council, started this morning
at $3.50 o'clock on a tour of inspection
of the various North Jersey water
sheds. Charles L. Ingraham was in
charge, assisted by six of the city
fathers. Each alderman paid his own
expenses.
There was considerable difficulty in
getting the party together, and when
it finally started the full number of
expected guests was not present. The
reason for the delay and the failure of
some of the aldermen to be on hand
was accounted for by the inclement
weather.
The route followed took the party
through a large part of Newark, Mont
clair, Little Falls, Singac, Mountain
View, Pompton Plains, Butler. Char
l~ottesburg (where luncheon was
served), the vicinity of the Oak Ridge
reservoir, Upper Longwood, Berkshire

Washington, June 21-Both Mime
sofa senators voted in favor of free
hides, when the matter came to vote
in the senate today. Senator Clapp's
attitude, as indicated in his speech
in the senate Saturday, was shared by
Senator Nelson. Both believed that
the small profit from the hide duty
which ultimately goes to the farmer
does not justify the continuance of a
tariff schedule which gives the beef
trust control of the leather industry.
Senator Clapp expressed great dis
satisfaction with the amendments of
the committee on finance, providing
for reciprocal duty on wood pulp
and products from Canada. He said
that such plan in the future could
have but one end, namely to increase
the cost of paper in the United States.

HUGE MILLING DEAL PLANNED
RUSSELL-MIlLER COMPANY WILL
TAKE OVER MANY PLANTS
Twelve Mills and Eighty Elevators
Throughout the Wheat Region Pur-
chased and Dominate Flour Trade.

Minneapolis, June 21.-By the alb
sorption of II large flour milling
plants and more than 80 elevators IN
different parts of the Northwest, the
Russell-Miller Milling Company, OF
Minneapolis, is about to consummate
one of the largest deals that has trans
tired in local financial circles for
- any months.
The property taken over by the
Russell-Miller Company represents
capitalization of $2,500,000. Besides
two plants now in process of erection
at Beach, Mont, and Billings, Mont,
the mills are all located in North Da-
kota, at Bismarck, Mandan ard Dick
inson The elevators cover a much
wider extent of territory, but are all
located in the great wheat raising
belt of the Northwest.
E. P. Wells, president of the Russell
Miller Company, in speaking OF the
absorption, stated that, although the
deal has not yet been fully consum-
mated there was no question about its
going through.
Owing to some of the provisions OF
the law, it will be 60 days before the
absorption of these mills and eleva-
tors will be completed. The delay,
however, is simply due to legal tech
nicalities, and not to anything else.
Within SO days the deal will be COM
pleted, and one of the most important
financial transactions that has taken
place in Minneapolis of recent years
will be matter of history"

several residents, Wilton would have
been burned to the grounds yesterday
afternoon.
One of the fiercest forest fires in
recent years has been raging to the
south of Wilton for the last two days,
and yesterday the fire was rapidly
backing up to the west end of the
village with wind from the south
west. Most of the country in that
vicinity is covered with slashings left
by lumbermen in former years.
A terrific wind before small rain
drove the first fire directly towards
the village in clouds of smoke and
dust, with trees falling on all sides.
But for a back fire the village would
have been reduced to ashes. Rain
lasting an hour extinguished the fire.

NEW ULM HARBoRs BURGLARS?
Robbery Leads Police to Suspect
Some Local Person.

New Ulm, Mimi, June 22.-The sec
ond burglary here within ten days
was discovered yesterday when DR..
E. w. G. Mihleis. a dentist in the
Oben block, notified the police that
his office had been entered and that
$40 in gold used for filing teeth had
been stolen from a cabinet. The
doors had all been locked and entry
was effected by picking the locks.
Shortly before the late DR.. l.. A.
Gebhardt was murdered on November
1, 1904, in this city, burglars entered
the offices of two dentists and es-
capped with considerable loot. One of
the theories advanced at the time, but
later abandoned, was that robbers had
entered Gebhardt's office bent on rob
berry and had slain their victim and
made good their escape.
