mick went to George w. Perkins, of
}. P. Morgan & Co. of New York,
and sought his aid in relieving com
petitive conditions from the manu-
facturer's view point. According to
the findings Mr.. Perkins soon was in
communication with other harvest
ing machine manufacturers and per-
fected a plan by which the McCor-
mick Company and other named COM
panies, except the Milwaukee Com
pany, ostensibly sold their properties
to William G. Lane. Lane, the com
missioners found, pretended to sell
them to the International Harvester
Company. The original companies
received stock in the new company.
apportioned to the appraised value
OF the properties and for their bills
receivable. Morgan & Co. previous
~ had purchased the Milwaukee
Company. Lane, the ostensible pur-
chaser of the original companies, the
commissioner found, was a figure
head. The new company was man
aged by former officers Of the old
companies, as was the International
Harvester Company of America:
In Voting Trusts Hands.
The whole stock of the New Jer-
sey corporations was transferred to
voting trust composed of George
W. Perkins, Cyrus Mccormick and
Charles E. Deering, who had control
until 1912.
The commissioner found these
men practically control the mower
and binder business and have poten-
tial control of other lines of harvest
ing machinery in the United States
In the first five years the sales
or the company in the United States
amounted to nearly 100000 900
In Missouri the company does about
80 per cent. of all business in agri-
cultural tools, implements, vehicles
and machinery, in the binder line go
per cent, and in the mower line rs
per cent.
Attorneys for the company con-
tended that the organization was a
legitimate transaction in the ordi-
nary course of trade. The commits
sioner found that this theory could
not stand in face of the fact that
the old companies turned over their
properties to the company not vet
organized, for the purpose, as they
asserted, of putting an end to what
they called 'ruinous competition"

CURTISS FLIES OVER ERIE
Makes Over-Water Flight at Rate of
40 Miles Per Hour. Forty Thou
sand People See the Start.

Sanu EeOpIe see Cn6 start.
CLEVELAND, Ohio.-Glenn H.
Curtiss of Hammondsport, N. Y, to-
day established a new record for
over-water fights by travelling over
Lake Erie from Euclid beach, nine
miles east of this city, to Cedar Point,
Ohio, approximately sixty miles dis
tant. The announced time con-
sumed in the passage was one hour
and eighteen minutes. The aviators
own estimate of the time was one
hour and nineteen minutes. His av-
erage time was forty-five miles an
hour although one stretch of twenty
miles was covered at a rate of a
mile a minute
Curtiss used the eight-cylinder So
horse power biplane of his own con-
struction, in which he made his re-
cent fight down the Hudson river
from Albany to New York. 1t was
shortly after IL o'clock when the BIZ
plane was taken from the aerodrome.
AT 1890 p. m, after it had been as
certained that the twelve-mile breeze
from the northeast prevailed in
Cleveland and Cedar Point alike, the
motor was started. At 1905 p. m,
with the cheers of 10000 people
who had gathered at the starting
point ringing in his ears the aviator
swept out over the lake
After reaching a height of 200
feet the machine turned to the west.
At 1:19 p. m. it had passed Cleve-
land harbor, where 100000 people
had grouped along the lake front,
and three minutes later faded into
the mist.
At 1926, just twenty minutes after
leaving Euclid beach, the biplane
was sighted off Dover bay, twenty
miles distant.
At 1:45 it passed Lorain; at 1888
crossed directly over Vermillion and
at 2;1S was sighted at Cedar Point.
Five minutes later it glided onto the
beach in front of the Breakers hotel.
A crowd of 10000 people gathered
on the beach went wild when Curtiss
landed. 1t rushed the aviator, lifted
him from the machine and carried
him on its shoulders to his hotel.
Curtiss Immediately telephoned his
wife here of his arrival After din
ing he announced that because of the
breeze which had risen and rain
which had begun to fall he would
postpone his return until 10 o'clock
tomorrow morning.

INNOVATION IN THE CENSUS
THE FIGURES TO BE PRESENT.
ED IN A NEW FORM.
Census Director Durand Will Give
Out Interesting Information.
Statistics to Be Classified.

Statistics to Be Classified.
WASHINGTON Census Director
Durand is preparing for an innova-
ton in the publication of detailed
information regarding the results of
the last census. Instead of group
ing the information according to sub
Jects as heretofore has been done in
the census bulletins he will present
all information regarding the people
of given county or city under one
heading. Carrying this plan into ex-
ecution he will begin the publication
OF state bulletins about the first of
the year.
Speaking today of his purpose in
connection with these publications
Mr. Durand said
These bulletins will contain at
least the more important figures de-
rived from the population census,
both from the state as a whole and
from it's counties, cities and minor
civil divisions All the facts avaiIa-
bic regarding any given county or
city which are contained in this bull
letin will be published together in
one place, one item below another,
the name of the county or city APP
pearing at the head of column, the
various subjects being listed down
the side of the page"
He expressed the opinion that this
method would be much more salts
factory than the old plan of distrib-
uting the information so as to make
it available only for purposes of
comparison as between localities.
Each place wants to know what
1t is doing" said the director.
There is to be especial effort to
distinguish the urban from the rural
population in each county, and those
living in villages or cities of more
than two thousand people will be as
signed to the former class.
Comparisons with the population
OF ten years ago will be made, the
purpose being to show the tendency
or given localities, city ward or coun-
try ward. Following this there will
be a classification for each county
as to color, race, nativity, sex, edu-
cational qualifications, etc. Statis-
tics regarding voters will also be
presented, affording congress, if it so
desires, an opportunity to determine
whether citizens are being disfran-
chised in any section of the country.
as has been asserted is the case.

HITS HARVESTER COMBINE
DECLARED ILLEGAL IN REPORT
OF SPECIAL COMMISSIONERS.
Says Charter of International Har-
vester Co. Should Be Forfeited.
Growth of the Trust.

Growth OF the Trust.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo.-Special
Commissioner Theodore Brace in his
report to the supreme court in the
custer suit filed today declares the
International Harvester Company of
New Jersey trust and a combine
formed for the purpose and with the
effect of destroying competition in
the manufacture and sale of har-
vesting machinery.
The International Harvester Com
pany of America is declared to be
used merely as a selling agency by
the New Jersey company in evasion
of the Missouri laws which prohibit
the licensing of the New Jersey con-
Germ by reason of it's enormous CAPT
tai of $12O,OOO,0OO.
just a Fiction.
The subsidiary corporation, accord
ing to Commissioner Brace, once had
capital and now it has none. It's ex-
lStence as separate corporate en-
tity is a mere fiction to evade the
laws of states whose policy is not to
encourage such vast accumulation of
wealth and power in the hands of a
few as may injure the welfare and
prosperity of the many, whose policy
is to keep open the field of CONNER
cial and industrial enterprise to all
citizens.
The comm 'ssioner found that the
Mccormick Harvester Company, the
Deering Harvesting Machine Com
pany, Warder, Bushnell, Glessner
and Company, the Plano Manufac-
turing Company, D. NJ. Osborne and
Company and the Milwaukee Har-
vesting Machine Company, the latter
being a respondent, were in active
competition prior to 1902.

must pay more for your wares than

when you can save money. Bacon
is sold at 25 and S5 cents per pound
at all other stores. The Enterprise
market will sell bacon to you for
cash at 20 cents per pound and
what do you pay for your lard? 20
cents per pound, land then the store
charges you 20 cents per pound for
the tin pals your lard is in.) That
makes your lard cost you about p
or % cents per p2uAd. The Enter
