FEDERAL LAWYER WARNSPERKINS Informs Financier He Cannot Escape Prosecution. HARVESTER TRUST HEARING Former Partner of Late J. P. Morgan Appears for Defense in Suit to Dissolve Corporation. Chicago, June 20.—When George W. Perkins, former partner of the late J. P. Morgan, took the witness stand for the defense in the Interna tional Harvester company anti-trust hearing he was warned by Attorney Grosvenor, representing the govern ment, that conditions under which he testified did not give him, immunity from further prosecution. "You have been subpoenaed by Ed gar A. Bancroft of the International Harvester company," said Attorney Grosvenor. "I wish to inform you that your testimony here does not give you immunity from any further prosecution." "In reply I will say that I was very much surprised that 1 was not sub poenaed by the government of its own volition," said Mr. Perkins. "But you recognize that your testi mony here is of your own volition and entitles you to no immunity?" per sisted the government lawyer. "I recognize that the government has been very discourteous to me thus far," responded the witness warmly, and Attorney McHugh of the defense began direct examination. After telling of his investigation of the differences between agricultural methods in the United States and Eu rope Mr. Perkins testified: "In June, 1902, I had a talk with Cyrus McCormick as to the possibili ties of the European field for the sale of harvester machinery and also as to the possibility of financing the har vester company in connection with pushing its sales in this field. The possibility of developing the harvest er business in Asia as well as in Eu rope I think also developed in my mind at that time." Questions here changed to the Mil waukee harvester purchase. "Who was back of this purchase?" "Mr. Morgan was back of this pur chase and he alone. Neither Cyrus Mc Cormick nor any of the McCormicks had anything to do with it, except to advance as a temporary loan to Mr. Morgan the $100,000 which was used in the purchase of the option on the sale of the company." "Please state the basis on which the fnternational Harvester company was organized." "It was strictly a cash basis. There was no watered stock. Everything was dollar for dollar on actual values. There was no syndicate in connection with the organization." The Worm That Had Turned. Unsuccessful Angler (bitterly)—I'm not surprised.

BULGARIA SENDS THREAT TO SERYIA Must Evacuate Certain Terri tory or Figbt. Vienna, June 20.—The Bulgarian government has formally demanded that Servia immediately evacuate all Balkan territory indisputably Bulgari an. If Servia does not comply with this demand within one week Bul garia will occupy the territory forci bly with troops. It was learned from an authorita tive source here that Bulgaria's de mand, based on the treaty existing be tween that country and Servia before the war with Turkey,, amounts to an ultimatum and unless Servia com plies there is grave danger of war. Bulgaria and Servia, with Greece, agreed to let Russia arbitrate their differences over disputed territory, but Bulgaria holds that Servia now oc cupies certain Bulgarian ground about which there can be no dispute.

STRANGE feeling of excite ment, something like exhilara tion, was in the air at Charles ton that morning of April 12, Henry Clay's birthday, as more than one of the Eliingham household bad remarked. In a way that cannon signal roaring against Sumter bad come as a relief to the general tension not only at the South Carolina storm center, but everywhere, north and south. It was the decisive beginning of what all now knew to be inevitable war. When Colonel Haverill reflected upon the calamity pending over the country bis own personal griefs and annoy ances sank into insignificauce. it was the same with the elderly southerners, and the personal greetings and com munings of that day were marked by grave courtesy and kindness. From earliest daybreak every availa ble place on the barbor side was thronged by ladies and gentlemen, old and young, white folk and black, view ing the spectacle of the bombardment Troops came pouring into Charleston, but were held in reserve, the forces al ready manning the score of batteries now In action against Sumter being more than ample. Civilians of various descriptions were arriving from all di rections on horseback, afoot and in every species of antiquated or Impro vised conveyance. Far out seaward could be described the vessels sent by the Federal government for the relief of the beleaguered fortress, and It was rumored that they would still make an attempt to throw re-enforcements into the place. Meanwhile Major Anderson, within the fort, had withheld his Are until long after daylight, when parapets were knocked down and breaches be gan to appear in the masonry of the wails where the thirteen inch shells from the mortars struck, and smoke and flames from burning sheds told of havoc wrought within. When he was "good and ready," as they said, Anderson opened Are with three barbette guns aud stirred up the Confederate batteries ou Mount Pleas ant and Cummitigs point like a hor nets' nest. Tbjpn be brought into ac tion the two tiers looking toward Fort Moultrie with such effect that several of the latter's guns were eventually silenced. The firing continued all day and in termittently through the night. Sum ter bad no ammunition to waste. One of her magazines bad been exploded by the Confederate shells. The latter were persistently directed in an at tempt to carry away the colors, but all day these defiantly waved, and when the morning of the 13th dawned the flag was still there. At last, about noon of that second day, a successful shot was aimed and the flag, which had been hanging by a single halyard, fell. One of the enlisted men was quick to raise it again, replacing the shattered flagstaff witha spar. tf by Review of Reviews company. "Uncle Sam will have a brand recruit."

P. PUTNAM'S SONS new In Thai ~brlef "Interval Major Ander son's Are having of necessity ceased, the Cbarlestonians concluded that the fort bad surrendered. Senator Wig fall, in the name of General Beaure gard, put forth in a boat and went to offer Anderson the most favorable terms of capitulation—evacuation with permission to salute the flag and to march out with the honors of war. with their arms and private baggage. Under these conditions bis brave de fense having won him the best possi ble^ terms and knowing that further' resistance would mean^useless sacri fice of life. Major Anderson without humiliation hoisted the white flag over Sumter and entered into negotiations for the surrender of the fortress. President Lincoln had called for 75, 000 troops to suppress the rebellious combination of the southland and to "cause the laws to be duly executed" "Lieutenant West." said Colonel Ha verill. handing bis young officer a stamped paper, with full military formality, "I have secured the neces sary passports north—here is yours. I am ordered direct to Washington and shall start with Mrs. Haverill at once. You will report to Captain Lyon of the Second regiment in St. Louis." With what a different manner of pa ternal tenderness did the colonel lay his hand on the shoulder of Lieutenant Robert Eliingham, as if he bated to speak the words that meant a long farewell. Bob felt less restraint in going over the same ground again when the time of leavetaking came for him and Kerchival. "Our state is to be the chief battle ground, according to present predic tions," he said, with the weight of fifty years suddenly added to bis stature as a Virginian. "But every loyal son of Virginia will follow her flag. It is our religion." "That may be all right for yon. Bob —I am not blaming yon." responded Kerchival. "But my state is New fork, if New York had gone back on the old flag—your father's and mine well. New York might go to the devil. That's my religion." They walked out, Robert and Made line, along the battery wall by the sea. in silence, as if by mutual rendezvous. "This is the last we shall be together for the present, anyway, Miss Made line." poor Bob began. "I'm afraid so," murmured Madeline. "But we shall meet again some time," he went on desperately "that is. If we both live." "If we both live!" repeated Madeline, in an awestricken tone. "Oh. Robert You mean if you live, 1 suppose. So you are going, too. into this dreadful war, if it comes?" "Yes. Madeline, I must. It is fate— yours and mine together—isn't it, dear est girl? You don't deny it, and that gives me courage. You know what duty means. And you know what love means, too, don't you? Madeline, 1 do love you. 1 shall always love yon, come what may. Tbere. fate has granted me this much—allowed me to tell you how I love yon—and nothing cau take tbis moment away from us at least, thank God! And 1 have the strongest kind of faith in me now that our story isn't going to be cut short here. It may be interrupted. We've got to be tried by Are, maybe, but 1 can stand it if— You will think of me, won't you. Madeline?" "I shall keep watch upon fate." For the rest of their time together their silences were more eloquent than their words. Lieutenant Kerchival West passed through one more dramatic scene be fore quitting Charleston. In an obscure tavern by the water front be found Frank Haverill, a sin cere, young desperado, whose bold, dissipated look had something strange ly attractive about it and whose gen tlemanly speech and manner belied a certain affectation of hardihood and bravado. All this latter was swept away by the sudden, violent wave of emotion that visibly rushed over bis whole be ing when West delivered Mrs. Haver ill's* message and handed him the lock et containing the portrait miniature. With an oath on bis lips and tears running down his hardened face he cried out hoarsely: "I've been a fool, an ungrateful dog, and I've deserved jail and worse. And I'll stand the gaff and not blame any one but myself either. But, by heaven, I'm glad now that you settled with that Thornton before I got to him. And I came down here to Charleston to seek him as a friend! Now, listen. Lieutenant West, and I want you to tell this to my father and to my dear est mother, for she is that"—here he kissed the miniature fervently—"tell them that I deserve the worst that can happen to me, but that I didn't desert my wife. "Poor girl! She only allowed that story to go out In order to throw them off the track and help me to escape, as I did. Now she will know that the colonel and Mrs. Haverill know the truth, and that w'ill comfort her more than the money they are sending her, God bless them! And It would com fort me, too. If anything could, but nothing can, except one thing, and that is fight and plenty of it I want to fight my way *back toself respect to honor, and show those who have stuck by me that I'm worth saving after all. No matter what happens, thank God I've still got freedom to fight!" -, „_. ,'_ "Do you mean that you'll" enlist?" asked West. "Ygft-rea. lieutenant J^gan'tget to, BSp&JSkdis m& Washington quick enough."'"^-W5" "In the Federal army, of course?" "Surejy-tn the fight for the Union:" "Bully for yon, Frank!" cried.the officer, impulsively grasping the,boy's hand. "That will be splendid news for the colonel." '\/*-*.''-:* ,'~ .^-fl'' The somber scowl overspread Frank HaverilPs face again. ^He rose to his feet and said earnestly: "No, Lieutenant West I charge you, upon honor, not to tell my father—not to tell any one—but to keep this a se cret between ourselves. It will be time enough for them to know when 1 have proved myself a man again. Lieutenant, 1 am going to Washington to enlist. But that Is all that will be known about me for the present, per haps forever. Even if you hear of me in the days to come it won't be under the name of Frank Haverill. "I am going to start all over again under a new name, which won't have a spot of dishonor on it. and Uncle Sam and Father Abraham Lincoln will have a brand new recruit, born today. Do you understand, lieutenant? That sweet lady, heaven's own angel mother to me, has stooped down and grabbed me out of hell, and she shall yet have reason to be glad that she did so or my father will never set eyes on his son again!" When Colonel Haverill arrived in Washington, which at that period had not yet outgrown the aspect of a shift less, overgrown Virginia town, he found it transformed into a vast, chaotic mil itary camp. Every incoming train from Baltimore or from the west brought its regiment of raw recruits, who were driven like cattle to the barracks and drill grounds on the Potomac flats, near the end of the Long bridge "and within sight of the steeples and roofs of Alex andria, where on a clear day the south ern flag could be seen from the very windows of the White House, floating defiantly. While Washington was getting ready to send the Army of the Potomac to in vade Virginia, Robert Eliingham re ported to General Lee in Richmond, 115 miles to the southward, and found the new Confederate capital likewise seething with activity. Lee was exercising all his energy, sa gacity, skill and experience in the tour ie force of sending an equipped army to Johnston and Beauregard in the field at the threatened points. From one of these points, the great valley of Virginia lying between the Blue Ridge and Shenandoah mountains, he nad called Colonel Thomas Jonathan Jack son, an eccentric Presbyterian profess or at the Virginia Military institute in Lexington, and who in the first brief month since the breaking out of the war had developed aggressive qualities calculated to attract the attention of the authorities at Richmond. Lieutenant Eliingham, promoted to captain, naturally gravitated to the new brigade of Jackson, who was now ele vated to the rank of brigadier general of volunteers. The regiments of bis brigade were composed of the very flower and pride not only of the valley but of the whole commonwealth of Vlr- Long Bridge Over the Potomac. trlnia, and even before Jackson's troops took the field tbey had already begun to receive tbe impress of tbe iron band of their leader. Their first destination was Manassas Junction, tbe point of onion of tbe rail road coming into Virginia from Wash ington with a branch road leading into the Shenandoah valley. General Lee bad pointed out that tbis strategic point would in all probability be the first battlefield in tbe move to check the Federal advance toward Richmond, and he now concentrated all available forces there. On a small stream called Bull Run, some thirty miles southwest of Wash ington, Beauregard awaited the arrival of McDowell. The banks of this stream are abrupt and densely wood ed, but it is fordable in numerous places, and at that time was crossed on tbe Centerville and Warrenton turn pike road, below Sudley church, by a stone bridge. It was on a bright, sultry Sunday morning of mid-July that the two armies of brothers—disrupted members of a family republic that had held to gether for three generations—first emerged in serried battle lines six miles long from the mysterious Vir ginia forests on either side of Bull Run and rushed forward to fight breast to breast for victory. The Federal plan of operations, cred ited to the still masterful Lieutenant General Winfield Scott, started with the planting of an entire division of fully 15,000 men in the rear at Center ville, to protect the communications. Colonel HaverilPs regiment, to his in tense chagrin, was here helplessly de tained. Another division, in which General Buckthorn's brigade was in cluded, marched ahead to make, the opening demonstration at the stone bridge, while two others crossed at the Sudley and other fords, to concentrate on the sonthern bank of the stream and flank Beauregard's left. This seemed an admirably clear and simple plan at 8 o'clock iu the morning. Before noon it was an obliterated mem ory, and the wide arid plateau over which the battle spread like a fire in the brushwood swarmed with confused masses of northern and southern troops reeling to and fro, alternately taking and losing and retaking the same posi tions half a dozen times over, all lines indistinguishable, in dense and lurid clouds of smoke, through-which artil lery guns and caissons dashed madly, while the thunder, of cannon and, the ^g sustalned crash of itiiJsketry reverber ated in diabolical concert from the low lying hills around, and near and „far arose, mingled with the human-like neighing of horses and the hoarse shouts/ yells, cheers and commands, the.horrible shrieks and groans of wounded and dying.. v«{~ Before his horse was killed and him self knocked senseless by the explosion of a shell Heartsease saw General Buckthorn fall in the grand charge that drove back the South Carolina legions .of Hampton and Bee. He also became aware of another brigade near the en emy's center that did not give way, but stood its ground stubbornly'and then turned aggressor. It flashed over Heartsease's mind at the time that one or two more commands like this one would make Beauregard hard to whip, not knowing that this was the unique First brigade of the Army of the Shen andoah, under Jackson. Bob Eliingham, galloping along the little wooded crest on the other side of the stone bridge, knew all about this brigade. He saw .General Bee check and rally his scattered forces by point ing with his sword and shouting: "Look at Jackson there standing like a stone wall!" Jackson's brigade on the artillery swept plateau of Manassas was play ing the part of the Imperial guard of Napoleon at Austerlitz, but without the prestige or the inspiration of apparent success. At a late hour of the after noon neither side knew whether it had lost or won. In point of fact,* one had •bout the same right to be routed as the other. Beauregard was tearing about the field, at every portion of the lines, his dark creote face burning with animation as be shouted encourage ment to his grimy, savage looking troops, who responded with the blood curdling "rebel yell" of the southern swamp rangers. (To be continued) "STARVE THE FLY." Ours is a country home, but we have very' few flies. Our method is based upon the principle of "barring and Starving." In other words, we keep them out and give them nothing to eat, says a writer In the Woman's Home Companion. Fighting the fly in the country is ex ceedingly difficult because of the wide range and the numerous places where the insect can breed. On the farm the most common of these places are the barns and manure piles, pigsties, chicken houses and toilets. We be gan by making the barn scrupulously clean. This was not a difficult task and no more than should be done on every country place. The "fly part" of the barn is the stables. Using plank floors, cleaning the stalls both morning and evening and sprinkling a little powder ed lime about gave the flies no chance. The manure was thrown into a box outside, and this box is on a sled, ready to be hauled away at once and thrown on the garden or fallow land. Pow dered lime sprinkled in the box, when empty, keeps this fly proof. Then came the "barring and starv ing" process for the house. Both for convenience and comfort we installed a complete plumbing system, with hot and cold water, iu the house. In this day of gasoline engines, hydraulic rams and other simple as well as eco nomical methods of installing water systems every farm home should have &r^ ''I fSs^ --"•ST* ,'-« REMOVE STABLE SWEEPINGS AT ONCE. a plant of this sort. This required a sewer system, but the one drain and line of waste pipe also sufficed for the kitchen sink and stationary washtub. The sewer pipe, which was four inch close joint tile, was run down the hiU from the house into a drain. No cess pool or tank was used, but the outlet was converted into a veritable flower garden. Tbe only flies that congre gate about this spot are butterflies. To assist in absorbing all waste the outlet is changed" from time to time and the former spot covered with earth. One thing is very essential, however, for a sewerage system of this sort that is, a large vent pipe, not less than two inches, for the toilet and sinks. We have such a pipe or pip* s, connecting them to a final line, and butting this into the brick flue of the kitchen. This creates an upward draft, which sucks out and keeps tbe sewer line and drain clean of all odor and poisonous gases. By sprinkling chlo ride of lime in and close around the drain now and then we are given no trouble with this part of the system, and it remains continually fly proof. As a matter of course we have screens at the doors and windows. The back porch, next to the kitchen, which is usually a harbor for flies, we completely screened in. Thus the kitchen door can be opened when the room is hot and filled with the smell of cooking with no fear of the flies swarming in. Here, too, we placed the stationary washtub. .- ,:•-~ Finally, let it be added, that even with all these precautions we are vis ited by flies. They always come when such things as cabbage fish and meats are cooked, but most of them get no closer than the screens. A wire screen fly killer is kept handy for the few that chance to get In. .-., The Metropolitan Barber Shop, Bank of Willmar Building, B. T.
