This information was brought here
by Samuel E. Lux, one of the board
of managers of the Fair association,

by representative of the Curtiss
aeroplane company.

an aviation camp will be established
Each machine will be assembled in a
specially designed tent by a corps of
mechanics who have taken course in
lne Curtiss aeroplane factory at Ham
mondsport, n. Y.
Preparations for the coming meet
were started Monday, when the board
of managers inspected the big aviation
field and decided upon the location for
the erection of a grandstand large
enough to seat Is, 600 people. It was
found necessary also to remove a line
of dead telephone poles and take out
several trees that INSTRUCTED the view
OF the grandstand.
Work was also started on the erec-
ton of a new bridge across the creek
in the rear of Garfield park. which
will be the general admission gate to
the field on the Taylor meadow.
When Aviators Mars and Willard
arrive tomorrow morning, they will
be met by the managers of the Fair
association who are bringing this big
event to this city, and they will lay
out course for the aeroplane con-
tests of about mile circumference
for the path over which they will fly.
The air crafts used in the meet here
will be of the same type as that used
by the inventor and successful demon
strator Glenn H. Curtiss, in his won
derful record flight from Albany TO
New York.
These machines are the most efficient
and practical heavier than air crafts
that are known to the world today as
shown by the official worlds records
made and held by the Curtiss biplane
against all other successful types of
aeroplanes known to the flying world.

his debut in the aeroplane world
The Mars glide is feature performed
by no other aviator and is the most

front control of the flying machine and
it veers upward and settles as gently

cry case representatives of the Standard
Oil company offered to furnish fuel oil
just a little under the price OF coal
mined by miners trying to earn an hon

the heating plant at great expense, coal

Rock Island Cutting Down Expenses
This Week.

You can always tell when a railroad
is preparing to declare dividends and
the officials are making a grand fin
ale in economy in all departments.
Men are laid off, supplies are cut
down, and every possible means of re-
Gucing the cost of operation is made.
From what is going on in Rock
Island circles, it looks as though the
dividend time is near. The news has
just reached Topeka that the Horton
shops have been closed down. Rock
Island officials in this city do not
deny the fact but they claim that work
will resume the first of next week

contravention of law The attorney
general told his callers he would Go
the best he could for them. but he de-
clined to outline what is course of
procedure might be.
The hearing was held in the attor-
ney generals office where delegation
of about forty, which included COM
mittee representing the meeting re-
Gently held at Omaha, Neb., made up
of the shippers, consumers and pro-
ducers, called to take action protesting
against the advance. The committee
was accompanied by senators and con-
sressmen- in the territory affected.
They were: Senators Clapp of Mime
sofa, Cullom of Illinois and Warner of
Missouri; and Representative Nye of
Minnesota, Hitchcock and Norris IF
Nebraska. Hubbard of Iowa. Madden OF
Illinois, and Stafford of Wisconsin.
In general way the case of the pro-
teStantS was first presented by VIM. D.
Haynie, counsel of the Illinois Manu-
facturers' association. who presented a
memorial prepared as a result of the
Omaha meeting It asked that an in
junction suit be brought to prevent
the increased rates becoming operative
until such time as the courts could de-
termine whether an illegal combination
existed.

imposed by the proposed rates on man.
ufacturers, producers and consumers
and should be resisted. Old methods
were too slow in stopping their becoIp-
ing effective. it was set forth, and the
interests affected suggested that the
interposition of the Sherman antitrust
ac- might be invoked -
The expectation ofsathe protestants
was that the increase announced
would be followed by further advance
particularly in the lines leading to the
seaboard. The memorialists took the
ground that the action of the railroads
in seeking to increase rates at this time
was to forestall congressional legisIa-
ton giving the interstate commerce
commission authority to set aside pro-
posed rates in advance on complaint of
a shipper-it being admitted in re-
Spouse to a suggestion of the attorney
general that it would be easier to drop
from a higher than to Increase low
er rate.
At this point the attorney general
told his hearers that he would give the
matter careful attention. The sugges-
ton that the Sherman law be invoked.
he said, was a novel one.

single board fashioned to fit tightly
beneath the body of the scale. On this
it's center, is cylindrical drum
through which projects a pin, bearing
on one end an upright screw, and at
the other a weight.
When merchandise is being weighed
on the scale the screw is turned up
ward due to the weight on its other
extremity, and this push is directed
against the balancing rod which con-
meets the two arms of the scale, be-
meath the base. The screw then main
tains It continual tapping on the rod
which causes the variation in the reg
