 TABLES ON FRIENDS

New York, May 5.-Charles W. Me- den, N J., not only nipped what he re- gards as a plot to fleece him out of $21, 1000 by "wireless wire-tapping," but caused 13 new-found friends to be lodged in jail here tonight charged with attempted grand larceny.
 Detectives made the arrest in raid on a house in the tenderloin. where they confiscated a number of telegraph and telephone instruments, whose wires, they say, led only as far as the walls and seized alleged worthless checks ag- gregating $159,00 and S245 in currency wrapped about 15 bundles and giving the appearance of a large amount
 Mcdonald notified the police on Wednesday that he was to keep an ap- pointment with Mccormick, enc of the men under arrest, who had met him, he said, and represented himself as the manager of the telegraph company and able to get first returns from the races. Mcdonald drew money from the bank and led Mccormick to believe, at the detectives suggestion, that 1t was S21,- coo to be placed in the raided house flor making clean-up of s200,000.'
 Mccormick, according to the police, is William Crane, well-known to them, and among the 12 other men who were posing in the alleged fake pool room, are several characters whom the police have down in the rogue's gallery as wire tappers.

. SAYS 100000 WILL GROSS LINE IN 1911 Father of Invasion of Can ada Makes Forecast HE GIVES STATISTICS Four Million Acres of Homestead Land Opened-How Tide to
 Canada Has Risen
 Year by Year
HE GIVES STATISTICS

Winnipeg, May 5.-(Special.) l.)-According known as the Father of the American Invasion," the number of Americans, farmers families. with their goods and chattels also will cross the boundary into Canada this year easily will exceed 100000. Colonel Davidson Is in close touch with the immigration agents In the United States, and prophecies a record year in Canadian settlement.
 Train loads of coionats are already tax ing the railways, and hundreds who bought land last fall are moving north to get their crops in as early as possible Others are going to take up land in some of the huge blocks of new homesteads that are being opened up along the rail- ways.
 One block of 10, 800 free homesteads has been opened up beyond Edmonton, and Is attracting settlers to the Peace river valley in great numbers. Reports from Edmonton say that for the last two months a steady stream of homeseekers' wagons has been passing through that city, and that the hitherto unsettled prai- rie west of there will be sown to wheat this spring Four million acres of free homestead land Is now available along the branch lines of the Canadian North ern, and it Is expected that much of 1t will be taken up in the next two months
 Tn the Saskatchew an valley many of the principal towns are engaged in keen competition for experienced farmers to take up land in the great wheat belt. sending out agents to England and the United States to draw a good class of settlers J. s. Woodward. secretary of the board of trade at Prince Albert, Sas- katchewan, who has just returned from a two months trip in England, says that English immigration will be very large this year, and that he looks to see all records very greatly surpassed At Prince Albert he reports good demand for car penters, bricklayers and plumbers, as well as for farm help, and the same conditions prevail in other towns, where buildings are going up with a rush, and men skilled in building trades are in con- stant demand.

BILL AIMED AT SHOE
 MACHINERY CO. Peters of Massachusetts Would Limit Patents LIBERTY FOR BUYER Peters Says Shoe Corporations Have Been Compelling Purchaser to
 Buy Other Tools From
 Same Place
FOR BUYER

Washington, May 5.-(Special.) )-Coinci- dent with the determination of the demo- cratic House to put boots and shoes on the free list and with revelations at both ends of the capitol regarding the operations of the United Shoe Machinery company of Boston, Representative An drew Peters of Massachusetts today in- troduced a bill to amend the patent laws which, while general in it's terms, Is be- lieved to be aimed at the United States Shoe Machinery company. Ever since the hearings on the Payne-Aldrich tariff bill members of Congress have been study ing the shoe machinery industry In the United States on the theory that the con- oitions on which machinery is leased are such that it is impossible for shoe man ufacturers to sell their shoes at a reason able price.
 This bill," said Mir. Peters today, pro vides that no holders of letters patent of the United States shall make it condi- tion or provision, upon the sale of license, to use any such tools that the purchaser shall not buy for use with such article machinery or tools other than those made by the licenser, nor shall such owner or patents revoke the license to use them In the event of the licensee using such ma chinerv purchased from another person.
 Certain corporations are now making provisions on patented machinery where by the person who hires the machinery from them is also obliged to purchase from they all the tools and machinery. This is clearly against public policy The largest and most conspicuous concern connected with this form of lease is the United Shoe Machinery company ms company owns certain very necessary patents for the manufacture of shoes. In it's leases of this machinery 1t puts provision which compels the licensee to nurchase or hire all its machinery rom them Tn this way it is stif1ing competi- tio, in the manufacture of shoe machln- cry The actions of this company are much more likely to result in injury to the shoe trade than any reduction or the tariff.
 .'Other countries are already recosnlz- ing this England has passed Ia" sifhi- lar to the one have introduced here' anu if Ia interesting to note that the English 'io,, was nassed as a result of the United Shoe Machinery company, trying to do the same thing in England which It is do- ing unrebuked in this country. The near inc hefore the senate finance committee on this subject shows strongly the need of such legislation.
 "The massage of this act will, I believe xyorl great advantage to the people or the Tinted states and prevent the use or rights granted under a patent in way to foster monopoly and injure rather than help the people of the country
