John D. Glad to Be Back In Cleveland (Special from United Press.) Cleveland. July 6 Climbing out of a common everyday Pullman car John TX Rockefeller, Cleveland's billionaire reighbor. came home today and settled down at the "old Rockefeller place" at Forest Hill, for the summer. ! He was accompanied by half a score of servants and the entire car was cccupied by the Rockefeller party. Mrs. Rockefeller, her sister Mary Spell man, and several nurses were in the car as well as John D.'s secretary and valet. There was no shouting mob on hand ,to greet John D. after his seven months' absence, and his party hur ried to automobiles and were rushed to Forest Hill. John D. said he was glad to be back in Cleveland and was more glad that his friends had arranged his reception so that the "madding crowd" was not on hand. ) Don't Wear a TRUSS improperly fitted; permanent - " injury is often the result.

Tex Rickard, after pocketing all the losses he sustained j Francisco affair, has cleaned up close to J1C0.600 cash from the Jeffries-Johnson fight. The profits of Jack Gleason, his partner, cannot toe estimated until all the receipts from ' the motion pictures of the battle are all In, Glea son having refused to sell his share of the pictures. Rickard was about town today look ing as happy as a boy, saying the re ceipts of the battle were $270,775, which established a new record in pugilistic history. Of this sum $121,000 was paid to the fighters and th'e failure to hold the fight in gan Francisco cost the promoters $30,000, leaving the promoters $120,000 to be divided equally between Rickard and Gleason. In addition to this Rickard sold his share of the motion pictures for $33, 333, giving him a total, profit of $93, 333. Gleason's profit is $60,000 and what ever he clears from the motion picture. With the departure of Jeff and his party for the west last night practi cally all the ring celebrities who were shown in the arena before the battle have gone. The gambling houses are still running full blast but their pa trons are rapidly leaving town and by night will be nearly all gone. Jeff's departure was in striking con trast to the ovation he received on his arrival here. There was no cheering and 'the big bear" drove through the streets in his ' automobile silently al most shrinkingly. No word of re proach was heard through his route to the depot which was lined on both sides. Jeff appeared like a man crushed by the blow that had dashed his hopes. Alighting from his auto mobile at the . de-pot he walked un steadily. As soon as his car was opened the former champion hurried into it and hid himself . from the public gaze. LITTLE GIRL DIES SAVillG HER DOLL FROM THE FLAMES Winsted, July 6, Margaret Ormsby, four years old . only daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Orton Orms-by. of Torring- ton died from suffocation, yesterday, in a fire which damaged the two story frame dwelling in which she and her parents lived.

"I'm afraid." she called back and disappeared from the window. NEW HAVEN Allfl CENTRAL REFUSE PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSION REQUEST Albany, July 6. The increased com mutation rates on the New York Cen tral and the New York, New Haven and Hartford railroads will not be withdrawn by the companies. The public service commission has been so informed by representatives of the companies in reply to the commis sion's request for the suspension of the new rates. The commission was told that the request for the suspen sion of rates had been brought to the attention of the executive officers and while they would have been willing to comply if it had been made at a seasonable time, they believed that in asmuch as the new rates are now in effect no advantage would accrue by granting the request. The commission decided that the contention of the complainants as to the proper publication and filing of the new tariffs was not sustained and that the railroads had substantially complied with the law in this respect. There were other considerations, Chairman Stevens said, relating to other tickets which would receive further considerations. WALL STREET TO-DAY. (Special from United Press.). New York.

The setting aside of the assessments on the whole sale coal dealers In this city whose principal offices are outside of the state. In a decision just ' rendered " by Judge. Williams, '. causes . widespread interest. In the decision Judge Wil liams holds that the non-resident coal dealers are not taxable in New Haven. The decision was handed down in the superior court. The assessors of the city of New Haven last year assessed all the wholesale coal . dealers whose princi pal offices are outside the state on a basis of $10,000. The assessors then added 10 per cent because these deal ers did not swear to the tax list. Among the dealers who appealed from the decision of the assessors was the C. H. Sprague Co. of Boston, managed locally by H. W. Hitchcock, and four other wholesalers. The firms appealed to the board of relief, who decided not to grant them any conces sions. From there . an appeal was taken to the superior court. RUSSIA WILL STOP , GERrM IMMIGRATION Government Alarmed at Rapid Increase of Teutons In Southwest Provinces (Special from United Press.) St. Petersburg, July 6 Alarmed at the rapid increase in the German pop ulation in the southwest Russian prov inces, a bill.- drafted by. the Czar's cabinet and denying Germans the right to own land in Russia, will shortly be introduced in the Duma, according to an announcement made today by the leaders.- G-erman immigration Into Russia was at first approved by the . government because it was thought that the set tlers would raise the level of the Rus sian peasantry. Instead of doing this, however, the Germans, being economic ally stronger, drove the Russians out altogether in many places. In the province of Volhynia alone . Germans own 7,000,000 acres, maintain rifle clubs and openly speak of themselves as "pioneers of German, civilization in savage Russia." The bill is so anti German in tone that protest in Berlin hi expected. DR. COOK'S BACKER . SUED; $20,000 IS DAMAGE CLAIMED John R. Bradley of .Brooklyn, through : whose financial backing. Dr. Fred.

The above resolution was drafted by Alderman R, H. Gould last. night and presented to the Board of Aldermen by Alderman John . O'Connell. The latter was asked this morning what he designed to have his resolution cover in the way of Investigation. He said : "There is nothing special that I could mention Just now. We find that there is a great deal of dissatisfaction among the members of the department. They are Jealous of one another. The men in the department have been asking the Board of Aldermen for an investi gation for some time past. The Al dermetn have become sick of the kick ing, and I believe are ready to investi gate in order to get both sides .of the story. - If it is possible it is about time the city got rid of some of the knockers' in the fire department. These fellows have been' carrying stor ies long enough. But I don't believe we can do anything." Alderman O'Connell was asked for the name of the fireman who brought the kicks to him and his colleagues. He said that he did not car to dis close the names. Recently Capt. Madden of No. 3 En gine Company reported Firemen Ed ward Mahoney and George Benedettl for engaging in a fist fight on the en gine house premises in Norman street. The commissioners are going to hold an investigation at No. 3 house with in a few days. Recently two men Were dismissed from the department, one for being absent without leave, a.nd . the other for missing fires. Charges are now pending against Fire man Lewis Chatfield for refustag to accept a transfer from No. 1 to No. 2 Engine Company. A few weeks ago a number of firemen were fined for not responding to alarms of fire which their companies answered during their meal hours. The majority of the members of the department have kick ed against the new rules since they were put in force, especially the rule that requires a night watch in two hour shifts the same as maintained in other cities. They believe they all ought to be allowed to go to bed at right. The night watchman is sup posed to count the first round that comes in on the fixe alarm, keep track of still alarms and to know the terri tory his company covers whenever an other company is out on a still alarm. Since the alarms have been speeded up the commissioners have maintained that the men could not count the box j correctly until the second or third I Rosy Cheeks or Pale Ones?

During the past year subma-, rines have met with a number of fa tal accidents, with the result that some critics are inclined to say the naval officials are wrong in ordering tne Salmon off on such a long trip. The navy officials plan to hasten the Salmon to the Bermudas, leaving Quincy by Saturday, July 9, and back in the shortest possible time, declar lng that such a test will be of great value In building . other submarines, A numbes, it is said here, are to be built by the government during the next two years. round if they were allowed to remain in bed. The commissioners have put a stop to lounging pn the apparatus floor and have prohibited men from remaining on the apparatus floor unless in uni form. Men desiring to lounge in neg ligee attire have been obliged to use the bunk rooms or card rooms. This rule has nettled many of the men. President George B. Crawford of the Fire Commission, said this morning "I don't see any need of an investiga tion. There is nothlner wron- with the discipline. The Common Council has nothing to do with the making of the rules of the department. If the Aldermen want to investigate the department, however. I am sure that the Fire Commission will receive them courteously." . Edward Mooney. chief of the depart ment, .when asked what he thought about the investigation, saia: "An in vestieatlon would undoubtedly do s great deal toward educating the public as to the workings and methods of the department. The only fault I can see with Alderman O'Connell's resolution is that he states nothing definite. In order to open up matters right, charges should be brought and a. hearing con ducted on the charges. I will be glad to give the Aldermen any information they desire at any time." VOLUNTARY INCREASE OF WAGES BUT NOT FOR SLEEPING CAR PORTERS, New Haven, July 6. The New Ha ven ralroad has decided to grant an increase of 6 per" cent, in the wages of a number of thousands of its opera tives outside of labor organizations. This increase took effect on July 2. It covers motive power, transportation, parlor car service, detectives, etc. Certain exceptions are noted in the announcement of the wage advance. This - list of exceptions includes the crossing watchmen, or flagmen, iribst of whom are regarded as pensioners on the company's payroll. The other and somewhat significant exception, is the sleeping car porters. The road probably thinks they make enough money. This increase of pay will cost the road a substantial amount. It is prob ably deemed a wise business-move, else it would not have been made. No statement concerning the object of it could be gained from the road.
