CONTROLS MANUFACTURES OF PUMPS

Nearly all OF the steam pumps in use In the
United States are made and sold by one con-
Germ. Practically 90 per cent OF this entire in
dustry exclusive of the sale and manufacture
of high duty engines. is controlled by the
International Steam Pump Company which was
incorporated on March 4. 1899. under the laws
of the State OF New Jersey.
Either through the conveyance OF their titles
to all properties by the acquisition of not less
than two thirds of the capital stock of each
company by purchase the following companies
were acquired by the international Steam Pump
Company on the date OF Incorporation: The
Blake & Knowles Steam Pump Works. Henry
r WOrthngton the Laidlaw- Dunn Gordon
Company. the Snow Steam Pump Works. the
Holly Manufacturing Company and the Clayton
Air Compressor Works.
In 1906 the International Steam Pump Com
pany acquired the entire stock of the Power and
Mining Machinery Company. issuing therefor
over $7O00000 worth OF stock. The extent of
this industry may be estimated when il is stated
that the vendor. Benjamin GuGGcnheim. guar
anteed that the net profits from this one con-
Germ during the first five years should aggregate
the sum of S1.J00O00
The officers Of the International Steam Pump
Company are Benjamin Guggcnheim president:
Leon r. Feustman. vice president: Nathan

The team. which was owned and
driven by a Colored man, attracted a
great deal of attention as it wendell

The wagon was loaded with cotton.

owner OF the team. whom We under.

A surprise in the Bar island bridge mat
ter was sprung last week, when the papers
were served on the municipal officers sum-
moning them to appear before the U. s.
district court in Portland this week, to
show cause why an injunction should not
be issued perpetually restraining the town
of Eden from making contracts for build
ing the proposed bridge, issuing bonds or
expanding money for the purpose. The
bill sets forth that the island is owned en-
tirely by two people, has only one in
habited house, and four human inhabi-
tants, and that to build bridge across a
part OF the Atlantic ocean to reach such Q
property is not only waste OF public
money, but an expenditure OF public
money for private purposes in violation OF
the constitution. SIX OF the most promi-
nent summer residents and property own
ers in town are the plaintiffs in the case
John 8. Kennedy, Dewitt Clinton Blair,
David B. Ogden, Gen. Thomas Hamlin

appeal from the petition. The hearing
has been set for Sept. 20, at Portland.

Time was when an organization like the
Fadettes was considered a whole show in
itself at highest prices, but b. F. Keith
believes in double shows, judging by the
program he is announcing for the week OF
Aug. Q. Besides the Fadeltes there is a
list OF vaudeville attractions such as one
would expect to find only at the height Of
the season, every act a star feature.
Ben WEIGH, the Hebrew and Italian i'm
personator, one Of the foremost in this
class Of work, is on the bill. Then
there is Fred st. Onge, the old-time cham
pion bicyclist, who with his company OF
experts, gives most difficult and amusing
wheel act. Kelly and Kent are two enter
tainers who have long held the headline
place; Miss Kent's impersonation Of a
bowery girl has never been duplicated.
Then there is Sadie Jansell, the musical
comedy star; the Flying Martins, in a
swift acrobatic act; Clinton and Jermon
in sketch called "Bsck to Louisville,
and Esteile Wordette and company in a
sketch.

Republican Prospects Bright.
Following the first year OF the opera

the congressional elections of 1910,
and the republican leaders are not
unmindful of the fact that there are
many doubtful districts because Of
one reason or other, and that an cleo
ton between two presidential cleo
tions is always fought with doubt.
And yet there Is the utmost conf
dence that not only will the present
republican majority be maintained in
the next House, but that it will be
considerably increased in spite of the
fact that the democratic congressional
committee has seen At to announce
that it is going to work year before
