A Gard to Owners
of Rural Telephone Lines

We are anxious to see that all lines owned by
other parties and connected with are kept in sucn
condition as to furnish efficient service Where the
owners of rural lines responsible for their upKeep
we want to cooperate with them.
All lines require thorough overeaullng occa-
sonally if the best service is to be obtained. we
recommend that every line connected with us be
overhauled at least year. and that at least one
experienced telephone man assist in this work The
cost of this work when divided among all the patrons
of the line, makes the amount paid by each man
small and this cost will be more than offset by the
improved service

ton are experiencing trouble with their service we
will appreciate their talking the matter over with our
MANAGER or writing us fully. We will gladly do
what we can toward helping you improve the con-
dition of your line

Haiti, racked by revolution and

MANY LIVES LOST

TWENTY-FIVE DEAD, MILLIONS IN

MATE AT ERIE, PA.

Estimated 1000 Persons Are
Made Homeless.

Erie, Pa, Aug. 5.-Twenty-aye lives
lost as estimated by the police, mil
lions in property damage and the city
In total darkness, is the result of {;
cloudburst shortly after 6 o'clock tha
eliminated in flood that inundated &
large section of the city.
The heavy precipitation burst dam:
south of the city, releasing flood o
water that filled the business streets
| to a depth of five feet and in some
! sections reached to the second story
windows.
The Erie County Electric company's
plant, which supplied the city with
light, was disabled, as was also that
of the Erie Despatch, a morning news
paper whose building adjoins the elec
trio light plant.
All telephone and telegraph lines
were put out of commission and it was
several hours before crippled telegraph
communication could be partially re.
stored
At Ninth street, along Mill Creek,
in the residence district, the flood was
at its worst. 1t was impossible to as.
certain how many actually have lost
their lives there. Many are still inn
prisoned in houses and the rescuers
have been unable to get them out.
so Houses Washed Away.
The entire eastern section of the
city is cut off by the water and what
conditions prevail in the center of this
district cannot be learned.
At least so houses are reported to
have been washed away.
Wreckage is piled 20 feet high in
the heart of the city and at midnight
the water had receded somewhat, but
the estimate of 25 deaths was still
maintained.
The flood started at Twenty-eighth
street and came down through the
Mill creek, stream running through
the eastern section of the city. 1t rose
four feet in FIVE minutes and then the
onrush Of water came so fast it was
impossible to estimate the speed with
which it rose.
Hundreds of food sufferers are hous-
ed in the national guard armory, the
Erie departmental store and city res
cue mission. Little children who have
been separated from parents. and par
ents frantically searching for children
are huddled together in a pitiable
plight.
1t was estimated at midnight that
1000 persons are homeless.
1t will probably be days before the
full amount of damage that has been
done can be ascertained. In 1899 a
similar flood occurred in Erie.

CLASH At EAsTLAND INQUIRY
SOLICITOR STARTS FIGHT FOR
JURISDICTION.
Conflict Follows Bringing of Hand.
cuffed Prisoners Before Secretary
of Commerce RedfieId.

Chicago, Aug. 4.-Conflict between
the department of commerce and
States Attorney Macklay Hoyne arose
during the investigation of the steam
er Eastland disaster, because Robert
Reid and C.. c. Eckliff, federal steam
boat inspectors who gave the Eastland
Its last license, were brought hand
cuffed together before Secretary OF
Commerce Redfield and the steamboat
inspection service board.
Application for a writ of habeas cor
pus to take the inspectors from state
officers was filed with Federal Judge
Lands by the inspectors attorney af-
ter consultation with A. L. Thurman.
solicitor of the department of COM
merce.
Members Testify.
During the day several members of
the steamboat inspection service gave
testimony as to the inspection of the
Eastland before Secretary Redfield
who is conducting an inquiry as pro-
vided by the rules of the department
of commerce. Late in the day while
Ira B. Bansfield. inspector of hulls at
Chicago, was testifying, Inspectors
Reid and Eckliff, who are in Jail,
having been arrested on a coroner's
mittimus, were brought into the room,
manacled to a deputy sheriff.
The handcuffed inspectors walked up
in front of Secretary Redfield and
raised their manacled hands while the
deputy sheriff removed the handouts.
IF these government inspectors are
to be handcuffed and treated in this
manner by state officers" said Solicit
tor Thurman, Il shall start a fight for
jurisdiction over them"
States Attorney Hoyne was called
to the Federal building to confer with
District Attorney Clyne and Mr.. Thur
man. The federal attorneys announced
that application would be made for
writ of habeas corpus and Mr.. Hoyne
said that he would oppose the removal
of Reid and Eckliff from the jurisdic-
tion of the state. Mr. Hoyne said
that he did not order the sheriff to
handcuff the inspectors.
AS inspectors Reid and Eckliff had
virtually been subpoenaed to testify
before the federal grand jury it was
decided that they should not again be
asked to give evidence to the secre-
tary OF commences board.
