was meeting between members of
the strikers executive committee and
the Pressed Steel Car Co., and it was
likely that the 1907 scale OF wages

Against Harry During Todays

Hearing
TANGLED ALIEN1sT UP
Made Or. Evans Admit that He Had
Never Examined Thaw to
Find Out the Condition
Of His Mind.

WHITE PLAINS, N. Y. July 27.-
Jerome today attacked the testimony
of Harry Thaw's alienists. With Dr..
Evans on the stand, Jerome forced in
to the case the report which Evans
once made to Clifford Hartridge, a
former Thaw attorney. saying that
Thaw was insane and sufferer from
brain storms. Jerome confused
Evans on many points and when he
had finished with him before noon, he
had scored many points against Thaw.
Jerome made Evans admit that his
report on Thaw's sanity was made up
on a report to him by Hartridge and
not by an examiner of the prisoner.
He was unable to change Evans belief
that Thaw is now sane and never has
suffered from paranoia.

WESTERN UNION IN
TANGLE WITH STATE
Defendant In Suit For 81 10000 is Now
Willing to Pay $125,ooo so Hay
ward is Informed.

Des Moines Capital: Writing Secre-
tary OF State w. C. Hayward that it is
willing to file its articles of incorpora-
ton and pay its fees, the Weste-
Union telegraph company has brou. ~
itself into peculiar situation in view
of the million dollar suit filed by Attor-
ney General Byers in the district
coHrt and which is now pending.
Tke fees which the Western Union
probably unknowingly expresses a de-
sire to pay amounts to s125,o0O, but
the letter states that the only require.
ment which cannot be filed is the fill
ing of resolutions of the board of di-
rectors agreeing to fully comply with
the corporation laws Of Iowa. The
Western Union in the suit now pend
inging claims that it s under the iuris.
diction of the federal statutes and not
the state law.
The start of the present correspond
ence began when the blanks were sent
out by the secretary of state to the.
corporations of Iowa asking for them
to file certain Information according to
the statute passed by the last legisla
ture. The Western Union did not re-
ceiye any. but at the proper time the
secretary of states office received the
blank duly filled out from the tele-
graph company
Mr.. Hayward Immediately wrote the
company that the paper could not be
filed for fear of jeopardizing the pres.
ent action in the district court. The
telegraph company then replied with
desire to submit the filing of certi-
fled articles Of incorporation, and the
payment of the necessary fees, but
that the resolution agreeing to comply
with the Iowa law could not be filed
until the litigation now in the courts
was Settled.

SOME SIGN CONTRACT
Farmers in Neighborhood of EIgin
Sign Milk Contracts With Big
Companies Under Protest
KEN0SHA PRODUCERS FIRM

1t reports from some Of the Illinois
territory are to be believed the milk
producers seem to be wavering in their
fight against the Chicago companies
and it is stated that farmers in the
neighborhood of Elgin have signed the
contracts offered by the Bowman Dairy
Company and the Borden Condensed
Milk Company.
The signatures have been given
under protest with the understanding
that the contracts may be revoked if
the companies later decide to meet the
scale demanded by the Producers ,
, Union. There has been no change in
the conditions in this county and all
of the farmers are sticking to their
original agreement. The creameries
in this and surrounding counties are
taking as much Of the milk as they
possibly can and some of them are pay
ing the prices demanded by the pro-
ducers.
! Much of the milk which formerly
went to the bottling plants is now be-
ing shipped into Chicago to be disposed
i of by the agents of the union. The
companies have laid down the law in
regard to the striking farmers and they
declare that they are getting all the
milk needed to supply their trade and
that they will not make contracts with
some of the leaders among the union
men under any circumstances.
The old plan of building a bottling
works for the handling Of the milk
sold by the members of the union is be-
ing discussed at every shipping point
and it is possible that this movement
will result in some action along this
| line being taken.
Farmers residing in the eastern part
of the town of Pleasant Prairie con-
sidered this plan before the union
scheme was proposed and they are now
more than anxious to carry it out. It
is claimed that they are ready to pro-
vide the capital necessary to build the
plant if the officials of the union can
secure for them an agency in Chicago
| to handle the bottled milk. Frank II.
Fowler, the secretary of the Milk
Shippers Union, has issued a state
ment In which he declares that the
great majority of the producers will
stick to their agreement and he pre-
diets that in the long run the fight will
prove a. winning one.

GETS HEAVY DAMAGES
City is Mulcted for $1,000 Damages by
Jury in Circuit Court

There was surprise party all
around in the Circuit Court room this
morning when the sealed verdict hand
ed in by the jury in the case of Mar
garet Krisor VS.. The City of Kenosha,
was opened by Judge Belden and the
surprise was occasioned by the amount
Of the damages awarded the plaintiff.
The hangers on around the court room
believed the verdict would not be in
excess of $1,000 at the outside, but
when the verdict was opened this morn
ing it was found that the city had
been assessed $1,000 by the jury which
heard the testimony. The jury wran-
gled for many hours before reaching
an agreement and as the verdict finally
handed in must have been in the nature
Of a compromise it was generally be-
Heved that the award would be small

agreement is not reached within a rea-
sonable time. The suit was a demand
