- -V. no... icjn County News Mr. 'icConnellsburg, Pa. cm WHEN THE PETS SUFFER. A largo gray cat leaped to death jfrom a 13story window of a New "York hotel, and a telegram give the texplanatlou that the animal committed tulclde In this way because It mis tress had sailed for Europe, leaving It liehlnd, says the Pittsburg Chronicle Telegraph. Whether the cat commit ted suicide or not la Immaterial, but the Incident does serve a purpose in calling attention to a pathetic Hide of the vacation season. In thousands of koines all over the country tliere are fcouaehold pels, audi as dogs and cats and birds, and as many of these homes are closed during ibe summer, or at least for several weeks, the pets are In most Instances left to shift for themselves. For the Bake of the song Ihere are neighbors who will tuke barge of the canaries during the ab sence of their owners, but for the dogs nd the cats there are, as a rule, only J; argli words and tuffetlngi from the neighbors, and sticks and Btones from the urchins of the community, and the poor creatures, homeless, friendless, and abused, are Indeed ob jects of pity. It would be much more humane for the owners of these pets to put them to deuth before going way on their vacutlon trips, Instend of leaving them to their fate, but the practice of deserting them goes on jrear after year. A bulletin recently Issued by the census department shows that the United States leads the world In man ufacturing silk, with the possible ex ception of China, from which no flg ures are obtainable. We took first jilace from France In 1905, and have maintained our lead. We not only are the greatest manufacturers of silk goods, but the greatest consumers. Al though we manufactured In 1909 silk -worth $196,425,000, we exported less than one per cent, of tbe goods we made. Our silk Industry In 1869 amounted to J12.210.000. It was more than $41,000,000 ten years later. It bad more than doubled again In 1SS9, when 3t was $87,298,000. It was $107,256, O00 In 1909 and more than $133,000,000 live years later. The Instruction of school children on the danger of railroad trespassing; Is a good thing to take up. Much of the danger Is Incurred through child ish thoughtlessness and failure of re quisite attention of parents and ln f tructors to the matter. The fact that cars and trains have the right of way on railway tracks cannot be too strong ly Impressed on the youthful mind. In Jact, It might with advantage be brought to some adult attention. At the same time, much danger, particu larly to the young and to the aged and .feeble, might be lessened by more at tention on tbe part of car and train rrews to the laws governing the rate of speed In cities, particularly the ordinances applying to the street crossings.

Brother of Mark Hanni Telia the House Investigating Commu tes That the Iranjaoti jn Saved the Day. New York. No ulterior motives lurked behind tho taking over of the Tennessee Coul und Iron Company by the I'nlted States Sl'eel Corporation during the financial panic of Ian", In the opinion of L. C. llunna, of Cleveland, one of the syud.caie own ers of trie lennesBue concern beloiu the merger, who spent the day on the witness-stand before the Steel Truat Investigating Committee of ttie House of Representatives. Tnui surreptitious motives had been sug gested, -Mr. Ituuna, who is a bro ther of the late benator Mark iiunna, admitted, but he never had credited the reports. He believed the trans action wuu neeesuary to avert the failure of the New ork banking and brokerage firm of Moore Ac Schley, who held too much Tennessee Coal and Iron stock as collateral for loans, and to avert wild spreading of threat ening business disaster. In answer to a series of questions by Representative Beall, of Texas, Mr. Hanna said he thought the Con gressman believed a plot had been framed whereby the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company would be gobbled up by the steel interests, but he had no knowledge of such a plot, and did not credit such an Idea. "Before the threatened failure of Moore & Schley," asked Representa tive Beall, "had not its United States Treasury poured $50,000,000 into New York to stop the panic?" "I think so," Mr. Hanna replied. "Also before that time," Mr. Beall continued, "had not Mr. J. Plerpont Morgan and his associates advanced $60,000,000 to relieve the financial situation?" "I heard It so stated," said Mr. Hanna. "After all that the panic was not averted," Mr. Beall resumed, "and can you tell me why the taking up of only $6,000,000 in loans on the Tennessee Coal and Iron collateral of Moore & Schley affected that restora tion of confidence In the business world which the I'nlted States Treas ury and the Morgan millions had been unable to do?" "The only explanation," Mr. Hanna replied, after some hesitation, "Is that the panic up to that time had not reached that character of busi ness houses which were Involved In this transaction. I think from your line of questions that you believe the sale of the Tennessee Coal and Iron Company was a plot. I never thought so. I still wish I could have held on to my stock, but it seemed absolutely necessary to sell It to avert serious trouble." BUTTED TO DEATH BY RAM Mrs. AntionMte Zoil Found Dead In Hsr Cowshed. Muskegon, Mich. That Mrs. Antoinette Zoll, of Conklin, who was found dead In a cowshed in the rear of her farm home wbb not murdered, but came to her death by being butted by a ram, Is the conclusion practically arrived at by ofllcers In vestigating the case. Tho sheep was found In the fields, its hornB bloody and a large patch of blood on the back of Its nock. The theory is that the ram attacked Mrs. Zoll as she ran around the house In teror and finally knocked her down. When It left her. It is thought she managed to drag herself Into the shed, where she died. Fright Cures Cripple. Harrisonburg, Va.

Jackson, Aroused by Attempts to Chloroform H m, Makes a Brave Fight for Lite First Stun, ned by a Blow. New York. Paul Geldel, a 17 year old boy of Hartford, Conn., who was employed as a bellboy at the Hotel Iroquois, was arrested in connection with the murder of William Henry I Jackson, an aged and well-to-do . Wall street broker, who was found strangled to death In his room at the hotel. Geldel was taken to police head quarters, where, according to Deputy Police Commissioner Dougherty, he will be charged with the murder. Four other persons, three men and a woman, who It Is believed can shed some light on the tragedy, were also taken to police headquarters. It was declared at headquarters that Paul Geldel confessed to Dep uty Commissioner Dougherty and District Attorney Whitman that he chloroformed and robbed Jackson. Mr. Jackson was murdered In the midst of the hotel and club district, where the night life is almost as ac tive as the day. , In some manner which the police do not attempt to explain the man effected an entrance to Mr. Jack son's room on the Tenth floor of the Hotel Iroquois, at 49 West Forty fourth street. While he was rising the apartment the broker evidently awoke and attacked him. The strug gle must, have been a short one, for the evidence Is that the thief was a powerful man and Mr. Jackson was not only feeble, but had been In bad health for some time. I nree lerrinc oiows over me nenu, ; which left ugl gashes, evidently ; flooded the old man. Not content with this, the murderer then stuffed ; t washcloth half way down Mr. Jack I son's thoat and with his bare hands i throttled the littlo remaining life j out of him. I The price of this crime wns about $30 In money, a watch that, was an heirloom In Jackson's family and a few small trinkets, Buch as Bcarfplns, cuff buttons and shirt studs. While Mr. Jackson was not a rich j man, he was generally reputed to be ! wealthy. Connected with the Wall street firm of Van Schnlck & Co., a member of the New York Yacht and other exclusive clubs, and much given to extreme liberality in his tips to the employes of the hotel, he gained the reputation of being a man of means. 1 MORE MONEY FOR THE MAINE Whole Vesiel May Havi to be Re moved Piecemeal.

BANKER PRESIDENT TAFT REBUKES DEFAMERS Controller Bay Message to the Point. MUCH HARM DONE ALASKA. Says There Is No Danger of the Controller Railway and Navi gation Company Monopo lizing th Field. Scorn for Scandalmongers. The acrimony of spirit and the intense malice that have been engendered in respect of the administration of the gov ernment In Alaska and in the consideration of measures pro posed for her relief and the wanton recklessness and eager ness with which attempts have been made to besmirch the char acters of high officials having to do with the Alaskan govern ment, and even of persons not In public life, present a condi tion that calls for condemnation and requires that the public be warned of the demoralization that has been produced by tho hysterical suspicions of good people and the unscrupulous and corrupt nils-representations of the wicked. The helpless state to which tho credulity of some and the malevolent scandal mongering of others have brought the people of Alaska In their struggle for Its de velopment ought to give the public pause. (From the President's Con troller Bay Message.) Washington. In terms of bitter denunciation for those who "In the Intensity of their desire to besmirch all who invest" in Alaska, "operate upon the minds of weak human in terests" and "prompt fabrications of false testimony," President Taft gave the Senate his version of the circumstances leading up to the entry of harbor rights on Controller Bay, Alaska, by Richard S. Ryan, and repudiated with fierce Invective the famous "Dick to Dick" letter. The message was almost Roose veltian In Its use of the "short and ugly" word. That President Taft Ib strongly In favor of extending Alaskan develop ment without delay is shown by the folwlng paragraph: "The thing which Alaska needs is development, and where rights and franchises can be properly granted to encourage Investment and construc tion of railroads without conferring exclusive privileges, I believe It to be In accordance with good policy to grant them." The message accompanied the documents concerning Controller Bay, called for by a resolution adopted in the Senate on June 27 last. Cook County's Vast Wealth. Chicago.

THE WIRE TRUST MEN FINED Thirty-Savon Manufacturer Piead Guilty---Jolned to Re strain Trade. , New York. Thirty-seven of the 84 wire manufacturers and their em ployes, who were Indicted by the 1 Krand Jury here on June 29 on the cnarge of combining In nine pools to the restraint of trade in the wire business, entered pleas of nolo con tendere before Judge Archbald, in the criminal branch of the United States Circuit Court here, and each was fined $1,000 on the initial count n.rd $100 on every additional count In the indictment against him. The total amount of the fines imposed Is $42,700, and of this sum $21,000 was paid to Commissioner Shields before he closed his offlee for the night. In the case of most of the 37 ap pearing before Judge Arc.Uba'd the nolo contendere wnB entered to sup plant the original plea of not guilty already made; for a few the nolo contendere was tho Initial plea. Dis trict Attorney Wise has heard from the lawyer representing several other Indicted wire men that they, too, will come Into court and enter the plea of nolo contendere. Those who pleaded and were sen teticrd to bo fined, some of them on as high as six and eight convictions, represented the following, alleged, by the government to have participated in the nlii pooling associations: Lead Encased RnM-er Ctiblo Association, Fine Magnet W:re Association, Rubber-covered Wire os'f latlon, Wire Rope Association, Weather-proof and Magnet Wire Association,, Under ground Power Cable Association, Telephone Cable Association, Horse shoe Manufacturers' Association and Bare Copper Wire Association. Though several who paid up today were listed under scattering Indict ments ns representatives of the Bare Copper Wire Association, William I'uin.er, the president of the Ameri can Steel and Wire Company, whose name headed the list under the Bare Copper Wire Association, and who was indicted seven times, was not one of those to appear. MERELY ADMC NISHMENT Wilson Doe Not Ask for Condign Punishment for Wiley. Washington. It Is known here that Secretary of Agriculture Wilson, In a report to President Taft, has recommended that Dr. Harvey W. Wiley, the pure food expert, be ad monished, but not dismissed. Sec retary Wilson, It is understood, de clares leniency must be shown Dr. Wiley because of his valued services o the government in the past and his usefulness for the future. For this reason he apparently does not believe that "condign punishment" should be meted out In the case. I'nder the recommendation the President will be able to retain Dr. Wiley in his position, aB It has been believed nil the time he would do, without seeming to Ignore the advice of his attorney general. Thus an embarrassing situation will be avoided. ' IN AIR OVER FOUR HOURS Johnstone Break Ail Amor can En durance Reco-ds Hempstead, L. I.

THE CANADIANS 0 RECIPO Now the Issue Before the Peo ple of That Country. . CAMPAIGN WILL BE BITTER. Premier Laurler Carrie Out Hi Threat, Dissolve the Parlia ment and Appea to the Country. Ottawa, Ont. The eleventh Par liament of Canada passed out of ex istence Saturday, and upon the polit ical complexion of a new one to bo elected September 21 will depend tho fate of the reciprocity agreement be tween tho United States and Canada. Premier Laurler decided to ask for an Immediate dissolution at a meet ing of'hlB cabinet Saturday after noon, and at once notified Earl Grey, the Kovernor general. A short tlmo later a special issua of the Ofllcial Gazette was printed containing the formni announcement and giving legal effect to the edict. , As the HoiiBe does not sit on Sat urdays there were only a few mem bers at the Parliament buildings when the action was announced. In both Liberal and opposition rooms the news was received with cheers and the members hurried away to telegraph their political workers that the campaign was on. Came aa a Surprla-. The announcement of dissolution came somewhat as a surprise, as few persons expected It before next week at the earliest. The absoluto refusal of the Conservative minority In the House to close the debate on the gov ernment's reciprocity resolution and permit a vote upon It, which would mean Its adoption, and the im probability of a change in their at titude, resulted In the government' decision that It was- uneless to keep Parliament sitting another day. This is the first time a session of the Dominion Parliament has been closed without the appearance of the governor general in military state at the Sennte chamber to give formal prorogation. As the Senate was not due to reassemble until August 9, and as prorogation could not take place without both houses being present, dissolution was resorted to. The Sole Niue It Is generally agreed that the two months' campaign before tho coun try will be vigorous nnd even bitter. Reciprocity probably will be the solo Issue, although the Conservatives In Quebec may seek to Inject the naval issue Into the contest. The anti annexation cry already has been raised by the Conservatives in all parts of the country. Sir Wilfrid Laurler and his minis ters will take the stump and conduct platform campaigns in all provinces. The prime minister will confine his attention to tho central provinces and Quebec, while Mr. Fielding, minister of finnnce, who helped to draft the reciprocity agreement, will devote hlB attention to the maritime provinces. . TRAINS CRSH IN STORM Eight Lives Crushed Cut at Grind stone Station. Grindstone, Me.

Five passengers of the excursion train were killed. The engineer of the excursion train and two firemen were also among the killed.
