OLD ALUMNI HALL
 AT YALE DOOMED.
Workmen Will Start Next MondaJ
 On Its Demolition.

New Haven, June 30-The days of old Alumni hall at the northren cor- ner of the college campus, are num- bered and the number is rapidly ap- preaching zero. It is announced that on Monday of next week workmen will commence to demolish the inter for of the hall, and the rapidity with which the work is planned to be done makes it apparent that the building will be entirely razed long before even the football squad returns for the fall work It was announced at com mencement that the meeting of the alumni held there would be the last ever held in the building. The last university duty which the building did was to afford a space for the probable members of the class of 1915 in their final examinations for entrance to the college. and those who took the prelirn- mary examinations will make up the first class which will have rooms in the Wright Memorial, to be construct ed as soon as all traces, of Alumni hall shall have been removed. The new dormitory will be built in tins for the entering class of 1918, and the object for which Dean Henry F. Wright worked for many years will be accomplisheds that of providing dormitories for the freshmen on the campus, dormitories which will 5s strictly under university supervision.

 the direction of Albert c. Sweet.
 The seating arrangements this year
 show great improvement and increase ,, comfort, while everything about the tents had the shine and paint of newness and good care. More than 400 performers take part in the show | wiven in the three rings, two stages. and encircling hippodrome track. As an instance af the diversity of the per formers it is interesting to note that 29 languages and dialects are spoken by tn epeople in the dressing tents, and that is one reason why Jules Tournour, the clown and linguist, is the circus postmaster. The show opens with a glittering tournament, and grand entree. Among the notable
 riding acts are those furnished by the
 famous Fillis family with their danc- ing horses, also the far famed Albert Schumann horses in the Imaginable
 brewery act. Among the ring riders are the Clarks, Daisy Hodgini, Marie
 Meers, Josephine Clark, the three
 Duttons, the Cottrell-Powers and the
 Melroses. Shining among the ground
 acts are the Marnello- -Moritz family of acrobats, the Davis family, the
 Heras and FHorenz family The cir
 GUS is especially strong in aerial acts, in fact it opens with a. marvellously skillful bar act in mid-air by the six | members of the Delno family, the Fly ! ing Wards give a sensational trapeZe act and there are dozen others. Majirez, who is the highest priced acrobat in the world, has a startling wire act, while clever slack wire work | is also done by Claude Roode.
 Throughout the performance fifty
 clowns, and they are good ones, make
 merry around the track
 To enumerate the acts, would be al- l most an impossible undertaking. Talk ing the parade as the introductory, the Ringlings, who have always been
 known to keep their promises have given to Bridgeport the biggest and

 Crowds began to line the streets along the route of the parade several hours before the time of starting. It is unnecessary to tell anyone of these spectators that they were rewarded, for in the history of the circus in Bridgeport, 1t has never seen more new, novel, and we'll handled as this one.

cay.
 There are two indictments against Charles F. Brooker, vice-president o1 the Ansonia Brass and Copper Com pany and Republican national commit teeman for Connecticut.
 The associations named in the in- dictments are the Wire Rope Manu- facturers, which controlled, according to the Governments figures, 80 per cent. of the wire rope business: the Horse Shoe Manufacturers associa- tion, with 70 per cent; the Weather proof and Magnet Wire association 90 per cent; the Fine Wire associa tion 80 per cent; the Underground Power Cable association 95 per cent; the Lead Incased Rubber Cable associa- tion 80 per cent; the Rubber Covered Wire association 80 per cent; the Tele- phone Cable association 80 per cent; and the Bare Copper Wire associa ton 95 per cent. William E. Palmer pres- ident of the American Steel and Wire company, is named as a member of all these except the Telephone Cable association and the Fine Magnet Wire association. F. W. Roebling was in all except the Horse Shoe Manufactur- CTS association.
 Among companies named as mem- bers of the alleged associations or pools are:
 The Rubber Covered Wire associ- ation-New York Insulated Wire Co.,, Wallingford, Conn; National India Insulated Wire Co.,, Pawtucket, R. T.; Simplex Electrical Co.,; Boston: Gen. eral Electric Co.,, Schnectady N. Y.
 Wire Magnet association-W. S. Kyle. doing business under name of Bradford Kyle and Co.,, Plymouth, Mass; Ansonia Electrical Co.,: New England Electrical Works. Lisbon, N H. Weatherproof and Wire Mag net association-Ansonia Brass and Copper Co.,; Ansonia Electrical Co.,; Benedict and Burnham Manufacturing Go. Horse Shoe Manufacturers asso- ciation-Rhode Island-Perkins Horse Co.,, Valley Falls, R. l.
 The indictments are all practically the same in form, and charge that the defendants in each one of the nine pools undertook with respect to their particular product to establish ito the great and irreparable injury and det- riment, financial and moral, of the people of the United States" an un- lawful combination and conspiracy by arbitrarily fixing artificial and non competitive prices greatly in excess of the prices which would have obtained if the alleged combination had not been in existence
 The government asserts that the de- fendants in the several pools under took to limit the amount produced by each of them to an agreed proportion of a limited total output for the pur- pose of destroying and preventing all competition, and, in general, conducted organizations in an effort to destroy and eliminate all competition with their respective corporations by any and all such persons and corporations engaged in the United States in such business, trade, or commerce.

ehat he calls his children. Soon the anvil was changing in the blacksmith shop where wheelwrights were also busy repairing wagons. There are S6 cars in the four sections of Ringing trains and these followed in quick all on scheduled time. The menagerie tent, and the big top, with it's six tow ering center poles under the direction of Boss Whelan, went up from turf to the pennants of the peak, as if un- der a wizards wand. Great crowds met the trains at the depot and the Hot was thronged to see the men at tude of small boys, who having known that the Ringing Brothers started their circus career as mere youths saw a hopeful gieam of ambition in help ing the men at work. The all around comment by the on-lookers was one of admiration at the wonderful discipline and organization that prevailed. There was no bossing, no shouting of orders, no confusion-just everybody knowing exactly what to do and doing 1t better than anybody else could do it.
 The reporter of the Farmer was given a private view of the menager1e where Charles Smith, who, by the way, Is the youngest animal boss in the country, proudly exhibited won- derful collection of beasts, well groom ed. we'll kept, sleek, and full fed.

 New York. June 30.-The legality of the indictments, returned by the Federal Grand Jury against the s4 wire manufacturers and their em- ployes. including two subsidiary com panieS of the steel trust, will be as- sailed by the attorneys. for the men and companies concerned. Demur- rers are to be prepared and filed in the immediate future, but, according to District Attorney Henry A. Wise the evidence against those indicted is conclusive.
 The prosecutor made it very plain today, that, notwithstanding most of the pools went out of business two years ago, the correspondence in his possession, which resulted in the Grand Jury action, shows that all concerned have carefully carried on their business along the lines planned by the pool promoters.
 The action of the district attorney in getting after the subsidiary com panies instead of the parent corpora ton is generally expected to give the government a decided advantage in prosecuting.
 It is hoped that some will "come through" with required evidence that officials of the corporation had guilty knowledge" that the law was being violated. The date for trial will not be fixed until the demurrers are disposed of. :.
 This is the fruit of the investigation by the Federal Grand Jury here and the Bureau of Corporations at Wash ington, of which murmurings have been heard for some time, and al- though United States Attorney Wise, who filed the indictments, would not discuss the matter yesterday, it is un- derstood that the investigation is far hot +o results of the work which the Federal Bureau of Corporations in Washing ton is doing with respect to the steel industry will be laid before the Grand Juries here or elsewhere for similar action.
 The American Steel and Wire Com pany is one of the most important subsidiaries of the United States Steel Corporation and the nine pools with which it is connected control, accord ing to the governments allegations, by far the larger part of the wire and horseshoe trades.
 Included in thee pools are several individuals of financial and social prominence in New York, including Frank J. Gould, president of the old Dominion Wire and Nail Works: Will liam P Palmer, president of the Amer ican Steel and Wire Company: Her. bert l.. Satterlee, J. P. Morgan's son. in-law, president of the Habirshaw Wire Company; Ferdinand and Carl Roebling of the Roebling's Sons Com pany, and Erskne Hewitt, secretary of the Trenton Iron Company. Two salesmen. of the General Electric Company are indicted, but the officers of that concern, whose directors in- clude distinguished list of important financiers, are not involved in the bills presented. to the court yester-
