Against James A. Patten and
Seven other Cotton Spectators.

New York.-The government came
tempt to prove that manipulating the
cotton market is against the law.
James A. Patten of Chicago and seven
lesser figures in the speculative field
have been indicted, charged with con-
spiracy In restraint Of trade under
the Sherman antitrust law. The in
dictment was returned by a special
grand jury against James A. Patten,
Eugene b. Scales, Frank B. Hayne,
William p. Brown, M. II. Rothschild,

and by their buying orders helped to
rally prices during the last few min
utes.
Five counts are embraced in the In
dictment, which is in blanket form
and contains 10000 words. The first
count charges that "the defendants
unlawfully did conspire with certain
corporations not herein indicted to
demand arbitrary, excessive and mo-
nopolistic prices for cotton"
Scores of cotton mills in Alabama,
Georgia and the Carolinas are named
as co-conspirators, though not includ'
ed in the indictment.

Cannon Defends Old Rules.

Washington.-The old rules of the
house were defended and critics of
the speaker were severely scored by
Speaker Cannon in a brief address
late in the session of the house on
Saturday. Mr.. Cannon contended that
the rules as amended by the Fifty
first congress and as enforced by him
had never interfered with the will OF
the majority of the house when an ac'
tual majority had been objected on
any proposition. He scored newspaper
and magazine writer's who had critl'
cized him and declared they had pro
ceeded from lack of knowledge and
upon false promises.

lively estimated that 200 persons lost
their lives in the food that swept the
valley of the River Abr in the Eifel
region. Eighty.seven bodies had been
recovered Tuesday. These were found
along the river banks.
A report received here says that
fifty lives were lost at the village OF
Sault when a bridge crowded with
persons watching the turbulent wat.
ers was carried away.
Throughout the Abr valley not one
bridge is left standing. The foods
were caused by a heavy rain that
had continued for several days, caus.
ing the River Abr to break its banks.
Sunday night there was a cloudburst
and the water choked the valley,
drowning every living creature in
their path and causing immense mon.
etary damage.
Two barracks in which Italian and
Croatian laborers were housed were
swept away and their occupants, who
were in their beds, were drowned.
The railway was washed out and sew.
eral villages were destroyed.
Lightning which accompanied the
rains did much damage. There Is
much distress among the surviving
peasants of the valley, as most OF
them have lost their possessions.
