 The charges made against officials of the United Wireless Telegraph com- pany will be presented to the grand jury by District Attorney Wise. Much of the evidence is of a documentary character and consists of letters sent to stockholders.

 Three Hundred Stations.
 In an official statement. c. c. Gal braith declared that the company would continue it's commercial busi- ness at it's 300 stations as usual.
 The specific charge of using the mails is based upon a letter addressed to O'Brien on March 3, 1910.
 Inspector Mayer says the company was originally incorporated as the Amalgamated Wireless Securities com pany in 1904. In 1906 it took over the assets and business of the defunct American De Forest Wireless Tele- graph company, which was then run hing at a loss, and in default in in terest on its bonds, exchanging there for it's own securities on l0for-l basis.
 "The real assets of the company" said MT. Mayer, consisting of land stations. patents, manufacturing plants and real estate of all kinds, appear to be worth, at a conservative estimate $400,000 or an actual worth of two cents a share at par value"

Appearance of representative Clark Surprise to Attorneys for IIH-

Chicago, June 17-Attorneys for Representative Lee O'Neill Browne, charged with buying votes to aid the election of United States Senator LOT inner, continued in their efforts to ex- clude the testimony of Representa- tive George w. Myers and others who have been called to corroborate the testimony of Representatives Charles A. White.
 The arguments were prolonged and technical, but from the start it was clear the defense could not maintain it's contention and that the testimony would be allowed to go in.
 The defense suffered another shock when Representative Joseph s. Clark of Nandalia appeared as a witness against Browne. Clark himself is un- der indictment at Springfield in con nection with statehouse furiture deals
 The defense refused to reveal the whereabouts of Miss Wood, the girl witness depended on to impeach Whites testimony but it was said she would be one of the first witnesses for the defense. Miss Wood is with private family on the South side" said Attorney ODonnell "No,I shall not say where, just yet. There is no need of having Miss Wood annoyed by publicity before she is ready to go on the stand. She will testify to many things concerning White and what he did in East St. Louis. may be able to reveal where she is in a few days, but. at present, I can not"

COL. ROOSEVELT PRAISES
 THE WORLD MISSION.

Edinburgh, Scotland, June IA letter from Theodore Roosevelt, ex- pressing sympathy with the movement and regret at his inability to be pres ent, was read at the session of the Worlds Missionary conference. The communication, which was addressed to Silas Melee, an American delegate, aroused much enthusiasm.
 Col. Roosevelt wrote, in part:
 London, May 16, 1910.
 My Dear Sir-It Is a matter of real and profound regret to me that l am imperatively called away to America so that 1 am unable to be present in person at the World Missionary con- ference. I regret it the more as, if had been able to be present, it would have been as a delegate from the Butcher Reformed Church of America, to which l belong.
 Tt is written in the Scriptures that he that dOeth my will shall know of the dOctrine,' but the reverse of this proposition can not be found in Holy Writ. Emphasis is to be put on do ing the will If only we can make up our minds to work together with earnest sincerity for the common good, we shall find that doctrinal diff ferences in no way interfere with our doing this work
 Wishing you all success, I am,

OLD WO2LD Is
 SWEPT BY FLOOD
ARMENIA LATEST COUNTRY TO
 REPORT LOSS OF LIFE.
SerVia, Bavaria and AUstria-Hungary Inundated and Sufering-king
 Peter in Personal Charge.

Pa.is, June 17.-Dispatches from Armenia, telling of the death of hun dreds in floods now sweeping that country, add another chapter to the roll of victims claimed by the hungry waters of the old world in the last Cwo or three weeks.
 SerVia, Bavaria, Switzerland and AustriaHungary have catastrophes to report in which lives and property have been swept away.
 Ditspatches received at Belgrade from King Peter. who is personally conducting the relief work ill the flooded Morava river valley, indicate that between 300 and 400 persons have lost their lives and that at least twenty towns have suffered heavy loss, besides incalculable damage in the rural districts.
 Thousands Marooned.
 Thousands of persons are marOoned by the flood, and, unless the work of relief is greatly expedited, hundreds of these will be either drowned or die from starvation and exposure.
 Owing to the washing out of most of the roads in the flooded district and the destruction of bridges, the relief work is progressing slowly. Several of the smaller towns have literally been washed away. Wreckage of ev- cry conceivable sort is being carried down by the river. The situation is the worst in ten years.
 Reports from Berlin say the River Ammer is falling and it is expected the water-bound visitors at Oberam- mergau, including several hundred Americans, will be able to leave. The theater in which the Passion Play is presented was not injured by the flood, and the production that was to have been given this week will prob ably presented next week
 Switzerland Submerged.
 Conditions in the valley of the Giy- CT Ahr are greatly improved. It is not believed the deaths will reach over 150, though the property loss will be far heavier than at first thought.
 All the lowlands of western Switzer- land are now submerged. The towns of Altdorf, Zurich, Lucerne, Stang and Aarau are partially under water and a number of buildings have collapsed. A factory at Altdorf collapsed, kill ing II employees, mostly children. Landslides are reported in many places, though the extent of damages resulting from these has not been as certained.
 Eighty persons have been drowned in the oyerAowing of the Hungarlan River Nera, according to dispatches received at Buda Pest
