MAKES THREAT
Writes That Dire Things Ma,
Happen to the lighthouses at
Brighton Beach.

NEW YORK. July 27.-oiiver Har-
riman brother of the man VINO LETT
an estate of ST., 600, 900, has received
anonymous letters threatening the de-
struction OF the Brighton Beach baths,
sent to him evidently by some violent
antagonist of washing. or OF high
prices of washing. That quiet resort,
the Brighton Beach Baths. Is ever
carefully guarded by what Mr.. Noah
Claypole used to call the millingtary.
as we'll as detectives OF the most
Sherlockian type.
Mr.. Hartman, with his wife, Is at
the Manhattan Beach hotel. he says
that he ran down to the beach to re-
cuperate from an attack OF btliousness
which has bothered him for month.
and that this fact led to published
report that hewas prostrated by the
shock following the receipt OF the
ANONYMOUS threats against his prop
erty.
The prevailing rate of prices for
the use OF bathrooms and accompany
ing privileges are the pretext for
threats in the anonymous letters. AS
Mr. Hartman inaugurated CRUSADE
against tipping at the beginning or
the season, which resulted in the dis
charge later of several employees who

The receipt of this card caused
some alarm to the management. but
I did not worry over 1t, passing It out
of my mind as the work of a crank,
said Mr.. Hartman, The prices range
from % to 10 cents. according to the
services and accommodations receiv-
ed, and there has been no complaint.
A few days after this card was re-

GRADE FRAUDS ARE ALLEGED
Canadian Elevator Commissioner Seals
Grain Bins. .sas.z..

,EeTt Grain Bins. .E=st4zz..-. rs.
Winnipeg, June 2O.-There is sen.
sation in elevator circles at Fort Will
lam and Port Arthur in consequence
of the action of Elevator Commissions
er Castle in sealing up the bins of sew
eral terminal elevators where the
manipulation of grades has been car
ried on, it is alleged, on gigantic scale
and it is believed millions of dollars
have been realized by men who have
made a study of the manipulation and
have been in position to work the
game in spite of government inspec-
ton.
The commissioner is not leaving the
matter to the supervision of any under
officials, but has entered upon close
personal inspection. Just what dis
coveries will be made on examination
of the bins and books it is hard to
say. The outcome of the inquiry will
possibly result in the Dominion gov
eminent taking over the elevators.
At present Americans are very largely
interested.
