Washington, July 29.--Over the hills

fly in his aeroplane this afternoon if
That "if'' is mighty in it's bearing
upon the performances of the ma
chine. All statements that the flight
will be made are contingent upon the
wind being moderate. The motor in
good working order or some other
condition.
Yet the flight is likely to be made
this afternoon. The wind gave prom
ise of being light at the hour that
is favored by the Wrights for trials.
The motor of the machine too, has
been working well of late, except the
misbehavior yesterday. The inventors
today were confident there was no
serious trouble and that the defect
could be remedied easily.
Eager thousands will again journey
to Fort Myer, while others will
gather along the route.
Lieut.. Benjamin D. Foulos, of sig
nal the corpse of the army, will go
as passenger with Orville Wright on
the aeroplane; the Lieutenant is of
slight figure and stature.

Pale and Haggard But Conf

c. ". HARTRIDGE ON STAND
THAW's FORMER COT .lsEL CALL
ED TO THE sTANp-HE is MAN
WHO IS SAID TO HAVE PAID
MONEY TO WOMEN ALLEGED TO
HAVE BEEN ABUSED BY THAW.

White. Plains, N. Y. July 29.-Harry
K. Thaw, pale and somewhat haggard
although still confident of being able
to prove himself sane and fit for re-
lease from the asylum, appeared in the
supreme court room today for the sec
ond days examination by District At
torney Jerome.
The examination was delayed few
moments while Thaw's attorney called
Clifford w. Hartridge, Thaw's former
counsel. 1t was from Hartridge that
Susan Merrill said she received $25,0O0
to be paid the women alleged to have
been abused by Thaw in her New York
lodging house. The $4,000 was to
keep them quiet The money, she
testified, came from the Thaw family.
This morning Morschauser tried to
get possession of some books which is
was alleged contained accounts of these
payments, and which Mrs. Merrill said
she had turned over to Hartridge.
Morschauser's effort failed because
Hartridge testified that the account
books had been destroyed, and that
other memorandum book had been
lost.
Thaw's attorneys brought out the
fact that Hartridge was suing Mrs.
VIM. c. Thaw for a balance claimed
for legal services which Hartridge al
leges consisted largely in suppressing
revelations damaging to Thaw and his
family.
Susan Merrill was in the court room
today again.

Chicago. H., July 29.--At no time
during the recent upheaval in the po-
lice force of Chicago has the excite
ment reached the stage that it did
when the grand jury brought the in
dictments against Edward Mccain on
ten charges, including FIVE of brib-
cry.
McCann has been one of the lead
ers in the anti-graft war and mis-
Indictment comes as great surprise.
He claims it is those to whom he
has shown no mercy in his war on
vice who have testified against him
and have brought about his indict-
ment. Many preachers and well
known anti-vice people are backing
up McCann in his fight for his own
honor. Whether he is guilty of ac-
cepting bribes or is the victim of a
plot to ruin him will be determined
by the courts when his case is taken
up.

MERGE PHONE
MANAGEMENT
BELL COMPANIES IN THE DA.
KoTAs, MINNESOTA, IOWA
AND NEBRASKA JOIN.

Minneapolis, Mimi, July 29-The
Bell telephone companies operating in
the states of Minnesota, the Dakotas,
Iowa and Nebraska have been merged
for operating purposes, but they will
retain their separate corporate exist
ence with local officers just the same
as at present.
In the east, according to a dispatch
from New York, number of com
panies operating under the American
Telephone & Telegraph Co. have
ceased or will soon cease to have in
dividual operative identity. c. P.
Wainman of Minneapolis, vice presi-
dent of the Northwestern Telephone
Exchange Co.. said Monday night that
a similar merger had taken place in
the west for operating purposes only
The Northwestern Co., which oper-
ates in Minnesota and The Dakotas, the
Iowa company and the Nebraska COM
pany, will all be under one manage
ment as far as operating is con-
cerned, although each company will
retain it's corporate existence and its
local officers and managers just as al
present. But there will be one traffic
manager for the whole district in
charge of the business, one general
superintendent of the plants and one
commercial manager who will have
charge of the business end of the Bell
companies in the states in this dis
trict
Mr.. Wainman said that there was
no consolidation of the companies, but
only a general movement to improve
the equipment, increase the operative
efficiency and make interstate COM
munication easier.

Trenton. n. j., July 29.-The Rev.
James A. McFaul head of the Roman
Catholic diocese Of Trenton, has taken
exceptions to the recently expressed
views of DIR. Charles w. Eliot, former
president of Harvard, who announced
the advent of a new religion. He
characterizes the religious prophecy as
'ludicrous" and In a very sarcastic
vein criticises the great educator in
attempting to prophecy a religion of
the future.
James August McFauI is one of the
zest known bishops in America. He
was born in Ireland fifty-nine years
ago and received his early education
there. After coming to America he
attended ST. vincent's College, the COL
lege of st. Francs Xavier and was
graduated in 1873 from Seton Hall,
South Orange, N. J. Soon after his
graduation he was made secretary to
Bishop O'Farrell at Trenton, N. j.
With the exception of seven years
spent as pastor of churches at Long
Branch. N. j., he has remained in
Trenton ever since. Upon the death of
Bishop OITarrelI in 1894 he was ap-
pointed bishop of Trenton.
Bishop McFaul's work in reorganiz-
ing the American Order Of Hibernians
and his notable articles and addresses
on American citizenship" have
demonstrated MS ability as an or
ganizer, clear thinker and broad
man. ...... .. ..
