Accuse Enemies Seeking Con-

SAY THEY CAN PAY
IF NOT INTERFERED WITH

A. G. Stewart. vice-president and
chairman of the Executive Commit
tee of the International Lumber and
Development Company, Who together
with five other officials OF the COM
pany. have been arrested on charges
of using the mails in a conspiracy to
defraud, has issued a statement de-
nying that any of the officers OF the
company is guilty of wrongdoing. The
statement / declared that the company
is not harassed by litigation. begun by
enemies in order to gain control OF
the property Of the company, will be
able to return to every investor in
the company greater profits than had
been promised.
The statement follows.
An attempt to secure a temporary
bnjunction and received pending liti-
cation failed and the motion was with
drawn on the 31st of May last, and
the costs thereof taxed to the COM
plainants.
IL was believed by the friends Of
the company that this attempt to
wreck or break il up had been aban-
doned, and that business could 20
forward in the regular way, but with
in the last few days all tho officers
and directors of the company we're
laTrested and required to give bail to
appear before the court on September
16 next to answer the charge of con-
epiracy TO defraud
These arrests were under an indict-
ment by the Federal Grand Jury.
There has been no hearing on this
lcharge. and the accused officials had
mo notice Of the proceeding. The
indictment seems to be based on the
evidence against the company on one
aide only. and the first notice that the
eccused had was when they were
ARRESTED
The postofhce authorities had on
two previous occasions made investi-
lgation Of the business Of the com
lpany and its property in Mexico, the
ifrst one being In the year 1905. and
apparently found nothing upon which
ito base action Of any kind
The individuals against whom this
charge is made are perfectly con-
scientious In their knowledge that
they have done no wrong, and that
not only Is the charge false and un-
founded, but that it cannot be sus-
. tanned, while they on the other hand
.can and will afiirmatively prove II TO
be false. without justification in every
particular and detail as socn as It
is possible TO get a fair and open
hearing.
. This statement is not made In the
defense of the men charged with
crime. That viii be taken care OF
when the opportunity occurs, but II
Is made in order that those inter
ested as stockholders or otherwise
may not be deceived by statements or

rhe Kitchen In summer.

The Kitchen In Summer.
The kitchen is a great problem, for
it is likely 10 be small. crowded and
hot The window here must be open
constantly. The range must be forgot
ten. All heating Of water or food must
be done by gas IL an electric range is
impossible, and an acquisition that
will pay for itself is a fireess cooker
This is easy to handle and means that
the gas stove need be lighted but for
the briefest period in the morning,
when the food for the evening will be
heated TO the proper point. 1t then is
removed to the fireless cooker and left
10 reach perfection by night. while the
fire is put out A chatting dish In the
dining room will save work and kitch-
en- fire, as will a few OF the electric
contriyances. such as a toaster. fat
iron and percolator. The man Of the
house may even heat his shaving wa
ter with a little electric stick instead
of having the boilerful heated by the
range for his needs or the kettle plac-
ed on the hot gas stove to send waves
of heat through the cool house.
The food itself should be made sim
pie for the summer. A diet consisting
largely of vegetables and fruits and
cereals is used by hundreds who never
could be classed as "cranks' as soon
as warm weather begins Iced tea,
coffee or lemonade and cool milk OF
buttermilk will be far better than hot
drinks. Heavy puddings that must be
baked or boiled may be replaced by
ices, fruits and other cool things Sal
ads In place OF meats will appeal to
the eye and the appetite on hot day
and Will eliminate much cooking and
consequent heat. When a hearty meal
must occasionally be prepared with
the aid Of range or gas stove and the
rooms in consequence are overheated
just ms evening is coming on the old
remedy Of a wet sheet hung In the
breeze for an hour or so IN each room
will do wonders In the way Of making
the atmosphere cool and refreshing.

Sir:-In view of the effort now be-
ing made by the Consumers League
to have the Wilmington shops give
their employees a weekly half-holiday
during July and August, / should like
as a business man, to express my ap-
proval of the project. In my own
business experience, a Saturday half
holiday all the year round has proved
beneficial to both employer and en-
ploye. an equal amount of work be-
ing satisfactorily accomplished in the
shorter hours, and should like to see
the system given a fair trial this
summer by all Wilmington merchants.

BANK CASHIER ROBBED
EVEN THE CEMETERIES

Utica.-The entire defalcation of
Frank I. Arnold, former cashier of
the First National Bank at New Ber-
in will amount close to or exceed half
a million dollars or twice the amount
first supposed. This amount includes
the funds of the bank and the private
securities intrusted to the bankers
care by friends.
Arnold played no favorites in taking
other peoples money. He was treas
urer of st. Andrews Episcopal church
and it became known today that the
defaulting cashier had even appro-
own use. The church is without funds
Arnold having taken all in sight.
Arnold kept only one account at the
bank; owing to this fact the funds of
number of organizations have en-
tirely disappeared. Tne village GEM
etery had $500 in the bank, but no
trace of it can be found. The water
commissioners had $500 in Arnold's
hands, but that is gone. Then there
was $4,000 which was turned over to
Arnold as trustee of the Beardsley es-
tate to invest. There has also turned
up another note of $4,000 which is
declared to be forgery. Arnold was
also teasurer of the st. Andrews Gem
etery association which had a large
amount of money left in trust for the
care of burial lots. All of the associa-
tons funds have disappeared and it
has no money to conduct the work

it, As Harmon received only $50
votes in the state, Wilson has a ma
jority over all of SOS.
The only possibility of change in
these figures is that some small err

any, deviation in the final figure to
be issued from the office of secretary
of state.

WATTS IN THE STREET
CLAD ONLY IN SHEET

Denver.-Dr. c. B. James, police
surgeon, is not an advocate of any
back to nature fads. He is not a
vegetarian. Neither does he prefer a
Roman toga to the garb of the twen-
ueth century. Briefly, he is quite
conventional, is partial to meat, dress
es in ordinary apparel-yet early in
the morning he appeared in lower
Fourteenth street clad in what looked
shOckingy like the garb of Caesar,
and for all that lower Fourteenth
street could be expected to infer Dr..
James might have been back-to-na-
turtle, a vegetarian or an exponent of
the Duncanesque mode of living.
DR.. James, in brief, appeared in
lower Fourteenth street clad in a
sheet. 1t Is not often that police
surgeons frequent downtown streets
garbed in sheets, but for DR.. James
more may be said The unfortunate
situation in which the surgeon was
placed was the result of a mistake
and distressing accident. He heard
a gong. He was asleep at the time
He had removed his outer apparel and
cast himself upon his cot. There Is
little or no call for the ambulance al
three o'clock in the morning. When
the surgeon heard the gong. however
he was instantly awake.
THAT must be the ambulance" he
breathed, as he gathered sheet
around him and stepped to the door
Investigation through the vestibule OF
the surgeons quarters failed to re-
veal the presence of the ambulance in
the street, so DR.. James stepped with
out and the door, after the manner oi
doors equipped with a spring catch
snapped shut.
The surgeon, clad in the sheet
stood in the street until his cries at
tracted the attention OF the house
duty man in police headquarters, and
he was supplied with keys to admit
him TO the building

Exterminating the Cattle Tick.

No department of governmental work
is of greater Importance to the agri-
culture of the country than the Bureau
of Animal Industry. This has to do
with the inspection of meat products,
with keeping contagious cattle diseases
out of the country, with assisting the
States in the suppression of contagious
diseases when several States are con-
cerned, with preventing interstate
commerce in diseased animals and in
assisting the States in suppressing the
Texas fever tick in sections where that
is prevalent. DIR. A.. d. Melvin, Chief
of the Bureau of Animal Industry, has
consented to attend the meeting of the
Farmers National Congress in New
Orleans, November 8. and explain in
detail the work which this Bureau is
doing for the benefit of the farmers of
the country.

Citizen, if he knows anything about

affirm the law is good for our people as

it should be and should cover the ground
covered by the bill introduced by my

zen can name his place and set his own
time and we will meet and have this
matter ont before the people. If am
wrong the people have right to know
it. If l am right the people should
know who it is that is trying to make
them believe held something back on
them. My people know how l have al
ways stood on the chattel mortgage
question. have always favored it and
am glad it has become law and that
helped to make the law. Iwish l could
have passed my bill on the same subject
matter.
l am in favor of equal rights to
all and special privileges to none. If
we allow the man high up to mortgage
his home, let us permit his poor brother,
who owns more than two horses, to
his horses. The homestead
exemption applies to the chattel mort
gage as per the constitution. No man
can mortgage his two horses or two
cows without first signing away his
right, and his wife's name
must appear in this document.
