Ground was broken last week for the
home which the Sisters of Mercy are
erecting for aged sisters and nurses in
Aurora. This is the realization of a
dream long cherished by the sisters, and
will provide a comfortable home for
nuns from all the Mercy hospitals and
converts of the country when their
days of usefulness are over. Twenty
acres of ground were purchased last
year for the purpose, and extensive
lawns, walks and flower gardens will
be put in. The site has a frontage of
three blocks on ColfaX avenue, running
thence back to Eleventh avenue with
the Colfax car passing the door In
addition to the nurses home, it is pro-
posed to erect a convent and school on
the premises. In all S300,000 will be ex-
pended on the enterprise, and the build
ings will be second to none of their kind

The police have kept tight hold on

Hundreds of letters from all over

Retire to Shed While Government Of

Military Detachments on Guard
at Fl. Myer.

Washington, June 29-Owing to
strong wind prevailing the Wright
brothers failed to make their expect
ed initial aeroplane flight of the year
at Fort Myer. They thus gave further
evidence of their disregard for pub
lie criticism, when the exercise of
caution in all of their aviation work
dictates such course.
The senate had set aside it's tariff
bill to allow it's members to witness a
flight of the aeroplane, and together
with some several thousand others
sizzled in the hot sun on the Fort
Myer drill grounds. The Wrights
decided that the wind was too strong
and too uncertain for flight with a
new untried machine.
Wilbur Wright, in looking for the
operator of a moving picture machine,
the use of which he desired to pre-
vent, neared the impatient crowd. In
his jocular, jocund manner, he re-
marked that he usually put his ma
chine away when the crowds in
France were fretful But a number
of senators requested him to let them
examine the machine at closer range,
and that was the opening wedge for
a number of senators, representatives
and other distinguished spectators to
get near the machine to inspect it
closely. To avoid being questioned
the Wrights retired to the aeroplane

again been ordered off the fell

LUMBER TRUST IS SPOTTED

Presence Of "Gentiemen's Agreement"
Is Determined Anyway.-Identical

Searching for Leaders.

Washington, June Achievement
officials concerned in the hunt which
has been going on for year or two
for the head and front of the lumber
trust, are understood to be confident
that they are at last on the right
trail Commissioner Herbert Knox
Smith, of the bureau of corporations,
will not discuss the rumor that has
been current here for several days
that his investigators have succeeded
in fixing the responsibility for the
control of lumber prices and lumber
operations.
The government authorities actual
ly do believe, however, that they have
established facts as to the lumber in
dustry which indicate beyond cues
ton the presence of general under
standing and which tend to fix def
nitely the leadership and controlling
forces in that "gentlemens agree
ment."
Since the opening of the tariff de-

is no trust, never has been trust,
and by the nature of things could
not be a trust in the lumber business.
Against these assertions Senator Mel
son and other members of congress
have presented Identical price lists
OF lumber companies situated in wide
ly separated sections of the country,
showing that price lists had been
printed in ST. Louis for lumber COM
panies in many sections.
Whether the facts brought out in
the lumber tariff debates have helped
the bureau of corporations is not
known. Neither is any intimation
given as to whether the alleged proof
of lumber trust leads up to the iden-

MEAT INSPECTION EFFICIENT.
Special Committee Gives Clean Bill
of Health

New York, June 29.-The meat in
spection service of the United States
is to be given a clean bill of health by
special committee appointed by Sec
rotary of Agriculture Wilson, to inves-
tigate the charges of Inspector J. f.
Harms that filthy conditions existed
at the national stock yards of East
st. Louis, according to Washington
special.
Mr.. Wilson will announce the find
ings of the committee within a day or
two. The statement will show:
That in the neighborhood of sixty
persons were examined.
That the evidence secured fails to
substantiate any point of Harms allie
cations.
That the stock yards are in excel.
lent condition and that meat which
has been labeled inspected and pass
ed" was food fit for human consump
ton within the meaning of the laws.
That Harms never made any report
about the alleged violations of the
law and the passing of unfit meat and
it's products, although he had been in
the service eighteen months, until he
published his open" letter to Secre-
tary Wilson, and that finally this let.
ter was prepared in conjunction with
newspaper man.
To Arrest Trade Injury.
The statement that the department,
of agriculture will make is expected to
arrest injury to the foreign meat
trade of the country, which such allie.
cations as Harms were calculated to
produce. Accompanying it will be the
assertion, couched in as strong Ian.
guage as it is possible to write, that
the inspection service generally is eff
ficient; that 7S0 establishments en-
gagged in interstate commerce, which
are under the jurisdiction of the ag.
ricultural department, are obeying the
law, and finally that meat shipped by
such establishments and labeled by
the government inspectors is fit to
eat. In a word, the department will
make sweeping vindication of its
meat inspection branch.

ARMED DEPUTIES GUARD DAM.
Dynamiters Partially Wreck Grow
River Structure.

Minneapolis, June 29.-Armed de-
puties from the sheriff's Office have
gone to Rockford, Mimi, to protect
the Florida dam across the Crow
river. An unsuccessful attempt to
dynamite the dam was made last
week and George w. Florida, owner
of flour and feed mills at Rockford
and builder of the dam, appealed to
Sheriff Otto Languln today for protec-
ton.
There have been two attempts to
dynamite the Florida dam during the
last fourteen months. One of them,
on May 1, 1908, was partially success
full. The eastern, or Wright county
end of the dam, was partially destroy.
ed and repairs on the dam were not
completed until this year. Authori
ties made an investigation, but there
was no arrest. On the morning OF
June 20, residents of Rockford were
awakened by the noise of an explo
sion. Mr.. Florida fastened to the
dam and found that an attempt had
bee made to dynamite the west, or
Hennepln county end. Little damage
had been done.
Destroyed by Fire.
In asking for an investigation to
day, Mr.. Florida asserted that his
-four and feed mill at Rockford had
been destroyed by fire two years ago
and that the fire was the work of in
cendiaries. The loss by fire at this
time was $4,000. Mr.. Florida be
lieves the attack on the dam is the
work of the same persons who fired
his mills.
Mr.. Florida says he has no enc
mics, and no inkling of the identity OF
the dynamiters. Farmers above Rock
ford have complained that their pro
perty has been damaged by the dam
This is the only clue on which the
sheriff can work.
