NEWS IN BRIEF.
The arbitration treaty between
the United States and Great
Britain is practically completed.
John W. Gates, an American
millionaire, is ill in Paris,
France, where he underwent an
an operation for an abscess of
the throat.
The Connecticut Senate turn-
ed down the inoome tax amend-
ment resolution. Too many big
corporations in the nutmeg state
to approve of that way of levying
taxes.
Senator Luke Lee who sub-
mitted to a transfusion of blood j
operation to save the life of his j
wife, has had a backset, having
returned to his duties in the sen-
ate too soon. He is, however,
not in a dangerous condition.
There are so many investiga-
tions into the workings of the
big monied concerns of the coun-
try and other things now going
on that it is> difficult to keep up
with them. It is hoped a season
of better commercial and politi-
cal conduct is in store for the
country.
The Lakes-to-the-Gulf water-
ways bill has been passed by the
upper branch of the Illinois leg-
islature, and the bill will be re-
ported to the Houee. As passed
bv the Senate, the bill provides
j for the appointment of a com-
1 mission of five members with
power to expend not more than
$500,000 of the $20,009,000 bond
issue in securing and conserving

Two Hen Dead and One
Badly Hurt.
As the Result of a Most Dan-
gerous Fire at Denton.
A disastrous fire occuted at
Denton early last Friday morn-
ing. burning out the block of
building eouth from the south
side of the square resulting in a
property loss of $20,000, and
worst of all the death of two men
and the serious injury of another.
For a time it appeared like the
buildings on the south side of the
square was doomed to distruction
also. A hard fight was made by
the fire department and the flames
were confiined to the block where
the fire originated, tho several
times the other buildings ignited.
The dead are Jop Turpin and
Earnest Bushey. S. S. Grant
was injured. ThesB casualties
occured after the fire was under
control. The unfortunate men
were caught undu falling brick
wall. The consumed property
was partially covered by insur-
ance. The burned buildings, it
is stated, will be rebuilt.
President Smith of the Mor-
mon church who testified before
the sugar trust inquiry commit-
tee said the Utah-Idaho Sugar
Refining Co. joined with Have-
myer ih the Sugar industry for
the benefit of the Mormon peo-
ple.
Suits have been filed in New
York for the dissolution of the
periodical clearing house, or
what is styled the "Magazine
Trust," alleging it to be an un-
lawful combination, and in re-
straint of interstate trade.
For the third time recently the
state treasury was empty a few
days ago, necessitating a call on
depositories for $5,000 or $80,000
in the aggregate. But this does
not mean that the Stato is any-
ways near broke.
Samuel Gompers, president of
the American Federation of Lab-
or will not apologize to the Dis-
tict of Columbia Supreme court
on July the 17, when he has been
called to appear to show cause
why he should not be held in
contempt. Gomper says he is
not conscious of having done
anything to apologize for.
A peculiar condition existed at
Temple when an election for city
Treaeure was to have come off
None of the election officers or
clerks appeared for duty, no can-
didate announced, no voters vis-
ited the polls. Nobody wanted
the office as the pay is only $60
per year and a heavy bond is re--
quired.
The age limit at which a man
may obtain employment in any
department of tho Erie Railroad
is now 35 years. A strict forder
to that effect has been issued. A
tall well-developed, alert man
called at the freight claim de-
partment and asked for a clerical
position. He was informad that
there were several vacancies, but
when he gave his age as 36 he
was told that strict orders had
been issued not to employ any
person older than 35 years.
There is some talk of Dallas
and Fort Worth co-operating in
the matter of a water supply for
the two cities.
