Some local brokers who know these things realize there is a basis for the appreciation of the company's stock. ilr. Arthur A. McKain, president of the Indiana Manufacturing Company, returned from Chicago yesterday. Here he met Theophilua King, of Boston, vice-president of the company. Mr. McKain said last night that the facts above printed were correct. "It mlgnt also be said." added Mr. McKain. "that the thresher manufacturers have all signed new leases with the Indiana Company since the El ward patent was acquired by us. These leases are in force until the expiration of the Elward patents." Mr. McKain was asked if anything was "doing" In the formation of the so-called thresher trust. "I have made no attempt within two years to organize a combination of the thresher interests, all reports to the contrary being without truth." he said. "My belief is that the combination business In this country has been greatly overdone. Besides the thresher manufacturers do not want to enter a combination and I do not believe thy ever will." The explanation of President McKain will no doubt be accepted as the reason for the advance In this stock. It must be said, however, that the quantity of stock in the market Is but a drop in the bucket compared to the whole issue. There are only thirty stockholders in the company, all told, and such stock as is on the market represents stray shares. The officers of the company are: A. A. McKain, Indianapolis, president; Theophllus King. Boston, vice president; Joseph K. 8harpe, Jr.. Indianapolis, secretary; C. K. Sloan, Indianapolis, treasurer. These officers with E. C. Nichols, president of the Nichols-Shepard Company, thresher manufacturers, of Battle Creek. Mich., and B. F. Skinner, treasurer and general manager of the Advance Thresher Company, also of Battle Creek, compose the board of directors. ROUTED WITH WATER
STREET-RAILWAY LABORERS PUT TO FLIGHT nY AXGIIY CITIZENS. Hose Also Turned on the Attorney of the Company, Who Was Dramatically Demanding; Peace. CHICAGO. Dec. 6. Unable to find the mayor of their town and with no Circuit Court Judge available, the citizens of Waukegan, III., this afternoon took matters into their own hands and with the aid of a fire plug and! a line of hose routed a gang of street railway laborers who were trying to lay a track on one of their streets. The track was being placed by the Chicago & Milwaukee Eelectrlc Company, which, for some reason is not popular with the people of Waukegan. "When the laobrers started, this afternon, to lay more track a call was made on the mayor to have him put a stop to the work. The mayor could not bo found. An injunction was then sought, but no Judge was in the city and then the citizens rushed for the hose. A stream was turned on the workmen, who stood it for a few minutes and then ran. The attorney of the railway company came along. He held his hand in the air and said: "I demand peace." They gave him water, and he was nearly drowned before he could get out of the Teach of the. stream. The workmen were then driven entirely from the street, and to-night pickets are posted to keep the railroad company from stealing a march t'.nd laying the tracks. The matter will be fought out in the courts on Monday. ATTACKED BY ROBBERS. Illinois Bank Safe Dynamited, lint Only $50 Secured. BLOOMINGTON, 111., Dec. 6.

The robbers were pursued thirty miles by a crowd of deputies and armed citizens, but made good their escape near Sibley, where. the trail was lost. The safe contained $3,000, and this sum would have been taken had the robbers been undisturbed fifteen minutes longer. Robbers Leave 9 18,000 and Flee. PITTSBUBG, Dec. -6. An unsuccessful attempt was made to burglarize the National Bank of Freedom, Pa., early to-day.

Xevr Method of Treating Tnmori Tested by n Xfw York Physician. NEW YORK. Dec 6. After tests covering two years a physician of this city has announced a new method of treating tumors. It is by the use of boiling water. He uses a syringe, with a metal cylinder and adjustable piston, with needles of varying size. Using the ordinary aseptic precautions water is taken directly from a cauldron and Injected into the substance of the tumor. The water must be at a tempera-
ture of from 130 to 212 degrees Fahrenheit, or even higher. The water, he pays, should be hot enough to coagulate the blood and the albuminoids of tissue immediately. -but It should not be forced in so extremely hot and under such pressure as to scald and produce a necrosis of the skin. During the treatment the patient is put under the Influence of narcotics. HUNTER WAS ATTACKED.

BARS' FROM 'MISSISSIP' TWO OP THEM, AXD THEY WERG LOOKING FOIl THE PKES1DEXT. Tried to Find Him In the Cnncbrnkes, bat Couldn't, and Made Inquiries at the Gridiron Club. WASHINGTON, Dec. 6,-The .December dinner of the Gridiron Club at the Arlington Hotel to-night was a success, as usual. The Washington corps of correspondents who compose the organization made use of recent events and prospective happenings for their burlesques. There were many prominent guests, and from the time President Robert J. Wynne delivered his welcome address until the midnight hour there was nothing but mirth, music, quips, hits and Jokes, all of the kind which make Gridiron dinners so enjoyable. Good speeches were made by public men, who entered Into the spirit of the occasion. The menu was a book of rules of the House, with many cartoons showing the stringent manner In which Mr. Cannon will rule the House. This was accompanied by a gavel, making every man his own speaker. A "Seeing Washington Car" was Introduced and a member of the club gave a lecture upon the principal points of the city. This brought in a series of pictures the White House, Capitol, Treasury and other prominent buildings and "sights" being shown. The lecture was replete with "hits" upon guests and public affairs. An old-fashioned meeting at the "corner grocery" was held and present and future events discussed. Another feature was the nomination of all the possible candidates for speaker of the House, their characteristics being pointed out. A "stand pat" party was organized and after a number of politicians had been nominated and elected W. A. Turk, general passenger agent of the Southern Railway, was unanimously elected President. One of the best hits of the evening came late, when two bears appeared. One was a real bear and the other was impersonated by a member of the club. He announced that they were from Mississippi and were looking for the President. They had tried to find him in the cane brakes a few weeks ago, but, falling, had come to Washington in search of him. After partaking of refreshments they departed, as was said, for the White House. Among the guests present were the following: Secretary Moody, Postmaster General Payne. Secretary Wilson, Senators Allison, Alger, Hanna, Kean, Lodge and Scott, Speaker Henderson, Representatives Babcock, Cannon, Dalzell, Dwight, Gardner, Hltt, Hopkins, Lawrence, Laudenslager. Mercer, Overstreeu Powers and Trim'ble. Generals H. C. Corbin, S. M. B. Young. A. E. Bates, John F. Weston, Leonard Wood, Col. John Biddle, Capt. John M. Carson, Commander J. H. Moore, U. S.

A special dispatch from Rcme says that two station cruisers have been ordered to be put in commission for immediate active service. These vessels, the dispatch adds, are thought to be going to Venezuela. It is believed in London that the report of the preparation of the Italian cruisers arises from the fact that Italy has claims against Venezuela and that a delegate of President Castro was in Rome this week endeavoring to reach an agreement with the government in the matter of these claims. Would Affect American Commerce. NEW YORK, Dec. 6. Experts familiar with the trade of Venezuela under normal conditions assert, says a Tribune dispatch from London, that the customs revenues are derived chiefly from imports of flour from the United States and Canada, and exports of coffee to the same markets, and that the seizure of the customs for the settlement of British and German claims would involve the payment of debts through duties levied upon commerce from and with America.
