CHAIN STORE
CASES CALLED
Union Food Stores Cases
Start in Milwaukee on
Tuesday Morning.
BURKE A DEFENDANT

A trial that will be of much inter
est to Kenosha and throughout al
southeastern Wisconsin will begir
Tuesday in the federal court in Mil
waukee when 26 men, including wide
ly known residents of Milwaukee, Ke.
nosha and Racine, will face the charge
of conspiring to use the mails to de-
fraud by the sale of stock in the
bankrupt Union Food Stores com
pany.
Walter M. Burke, Kenosha attor-
ney, who is now serving a sentence
in the federal prison at Leavenwortf
for conspiracy to violate the Volsteao
act is one of the defendants. HI
cannot be arrested until after he Is
released from prison and his trisl
must be postponed for this reason
The outcome Of the cases now in the
court will foretell no doubt the out
come of Burke's case.
Hundreds of witnesses are expected
to testify, and nearly dozen argu.
ments by attorneys are anticipated
Defendants, lawyers and witnesses
will fill the court room.
Defendants Widely Known.
The most widely known Milwaukee
defendant is Edward Grieb, real es-
tate agent, Another is Edwin w
Berry, general manager of the com
pany, who has been connected with
the business during the years in
which it developed from a struggling
grocery store to a chain of 80 stores
~ l. II
E. Leslie Osborne, who was cashier
of the American National bank, Ra-
cine, now out of business, is another
defendant.
The others are: Philip M. Knippen-
berg, president of the company; Hen
ry G. Tank, fiscal agent; John G. Has
Ter, Samuel l.. Chapman, August Ker-
Der, Nathan H. Schwartz, Seymour de
Young, Benjamin Mallen, William F

Name Was Changed.
After the business had developed
sufficiently corporation called the
Waukegan Tea company was formed
to conduct it. Subsequently the name
was changed to the Union Food Stores
company, and stock was sold to the
public.
Permission to sell the stock was OBJ
tanned from the railroad commission
statement in which the resources of
the company were greatly exaggerat-
ed, it is charged. Mr.. Grieb's alleged
Statesmen are said to have made false
statements in making sales. These
statesmen comprise the bulk of the de-

PLAN TO BUILD
CITY DELUXE
Model City to be Built by
Mrs. E. Rockefeller Nc
Cormick Here.
TO COST S15,OOO,OOO

A city de luxe, one which is to cost
SIS, 900, 900 in its development, is to be
built by Mrs. Edith; Rockefeller Nc
Cormick and those interested with her
in the purchase of the Van Ingen prop
erty along the Lake Shore just south
of the city limits of Kenosha, accord
ing to the announcement made recent
ly in Chicago by Krenn and Dato, the
agents for the Mrs. Mccormick inter
ests. The plans for the city which are
being prepared now by architects, city
planners and landscape engineers in
accordance with the project announced
last spring, provide for a model resi-
dence city which, within few years,
is expected to occupy the entire tract
owned by the company, and will be
equipped with every institution of a
modern city.
The city will not only be model
home community, but will be provid-
ed with fine hotels, country club and
other features which will make it a
recreation center for the north shore
suburbs of Chicago and the Lake Shore
cities of Wisconsin.
Build Own Water Plant.
While no more definite formal an
nouncements were made, it has been
stated informally that the plans pro-
vide for the building of water plant
which will cost in the neighborhood
Of $1000,000, the laying of sewer sys-
tenn which will expend not less than
100000, the securing of connections
for every modern improvement such
as gas and electricity, even if neces-
ssary to build separate plants and the
erection Of large hotel and other
business buildings for the convenience
of the residents of the new city.
No announcement has yet been made
regarding the limitations to be placed
on the building of residences other
than that it is expected to be highly
restricted residence district. There
is an unconfrmed rumor that Mrs.
Mccormick will be the first to build a
magnificent home in the new city.
Not to Seek Factories.
1t is not the plan Of the ones in
charge of the movement TO see the To-
cation of industrial plants in the
model city, and it is probable that
strict coming ordinances will be passed
to keep it a strictly residential city.
The recent announcement made by
Krenn and Dato will be welcomed in
Kenosha and will revive the interest
which has been shown in the project
in this city since the announcement
that the deal was under way for the
purchase of the large Van Ingen tract
and adjoining farms by Mrs. McCor-
mick interests.

Only yesterday he lapsed into semi
consciousness, murmuring in a faint
voice from time to time II am dying
and calling his mother.
The end came peacefully shortly
before midnight, in the presence of

is also the grandson of the late Ern-
est Renan, slept in an adjoining room.
