Announcement That It "Will ot Put I'p It Proposed $.",000,000 Plant t Summit Is a Surprise Water Power Uncertain. The news comes as something of a surprise that the uorn itoqucis de fining company, which has announced that it would build a o,000,000 plant nt Summit on the drainage canal, will temporarily abandon its plans. In the meantime the Western Glu cose company, wnicn is mo sirungesi rival of the Corn Products company, is going right on with tho building of its $3,000,000 plant at Robertsdale, and with its improved facilities for doing business will probably give the glu cose trust a run for its money. In explanation E. T. Bedford, presi dent of the company, says that the management "has not been assured yet of a sufficient water supply at Summit While this problem is being figured out the efforts of the management will be devoted to tho equipment of the other Giants to the highest degree of efficiency." The abandonment of the work at Summit gave rise to rumors that op erations had been stopped ror lacs or funds to proceed. Mr. Bedford stated that there is no truth in that report and adds that the company is well supplied with cash. The plan is event ually to make the plant at Summit the largest of its kind In the world. The old Chicago Sugar Refining plant at Taylor street and the river is to be sold and the proceeds turned into the cost of the Summit factory. The pres ent business of the Corn Products com pany is said to be on a liberal scale and the profits satisfactory. The stocks have declined recently along with the rest of the market. True economy doe not consider price. Tract economy considers results.

CONIES! KEEI Votes Are Coming in Fast and Jamestown is Now Chief ToDic. RACE IS STILL YOUNG Some Candidates Have Chanced Places With Others in Fight For Head of List Lvery time tho lists are published the Lake County Times Jamestown Ex position contest becomes more interest ing and it is safe to say that a major- , ity of the people in the county are in terested in one candidate or another. Votes are being brought to the office of the Lake County Times every day and it Is remarkable the wide spread Interest that is being shown by the citizens of this city. Every time some one votes for a can didate he or she at once becomes i partisian of that particular candidate! and eagerly watches the Droerress that she is making. To prove that the race is still young and that there is as good a chance for the young lady who starts now as there is for those who have been in the race for sometime It will be noted that Miss Anna F. Grey the last young wo man to enter the race is now at the top of the list. In just the same manner it is possible that any one of the young ladies may take the lead providing their friends will work for them and the girls will do a little hustling at the same time. Miss Anna Blaumire of Lake Station is still making a spectacular race and now has over 50,000 votes to her credit. It seems almost certain that she will make tho trip and yet one of the interesting things about a contest of this kind is its uncertainties. But there are so many trips at the disposal of various candidates however, that it is hard to see how a young lady who really makes up her mind to make the journey and has grit and determination to stick to her pur pose can fail to accomplish what she sets out to - do. The Jamestown stamps were received at the local postofflce yesterday and are beauties. They, will be on sale during the summer and will . be a welcome change from the little pink piece of paper that are usually placed in the up per left hand corner of an envelope. Several Hammond Teople are planri Ing to take the trip .o Jamestown this summer at their own expense and there is no doubt that the reports that they will bring back of the beauties of Hampton Roads and vicinity will great ly increase the number of persons who will eventually take the trip. LMffl PROGRAM IS PERFECTED Final Details Determined Upon at Meeting Held Yesterday. (Special to Lake County Timea.) Indianapolis, May 28. The program for the Lawton monument exercises were finally determined upon at a meeting of the commission in the gov ernor's office yesterday afternoon. It is as follows: Prayer The Rev. D. R. Lucas. Address Governor Hanly. Unveiling Miss Lawton. Instrumental music America Band -Seventh Regiment Regulars. Poem The Home Voyage James Whitcomb Riley. Address President Roosevelt. The exercises will begin at 3 o'clock. Following them the president will be taken from the monument back to the vice president's house, where he will stop until it is time for him to be taken to his train. He leaves at 6 o'clock Thursday evening. , His entire route of travel may be changed, owing to the fact that he went to Canton, O., to attend the funeral of the wife of President McKInley. He was to have come over the Big Four, arriving here at 10:50 a, m. If he remains at Canton, he will probably come over the Pennsylvania, arriving here at 10:20. Every possible precaution is being taken for the safety of the president. Not only win the secret service men be here, but the president will be escorted around by men mounted on horses and bicycle men. Of course, he will have a military escort for part of the parade, also the stand upon which he speaks will be surrounded by patrolmen. ARRESTED FOR WIFE BEATING.

SS N Peter Hoist, an Ex-Miner, Finds His Brother in Hammond. Peter Hoist, wealthy ex-miner now connected with the United States mint in San Francisco, arrived in Hammond Sunday morning and started in search of his brother. C. II. Hoist, whom he had not seen for over fifty years. After searching over the city during the forenoon, he finally located his brother. C H. Hoist, who resides at 11 Sibley street, and the meeting was one that will not soon be forgotten. Peter Hoist left Hamburg, Germany, when he was fourteen years old and came to the United States. He at once proceeded to the west, there he cast his lot with the miners and made a stake and soon wag a rich man. For over thirty years he never heard from his brother or any of his relation and they likewise were at a loss to understand what had become of him. C. II. Hoist who now lives in Hammond left Germany over twenty years ago and never heard from his brother until he came to the United States when through a friend he got into communication-with him and for a time the two corresponded but this gradu ally dropped and again the two brothrs were lost from each other. Mr. Hoist was granted a l.-ave of absence from his duties at the mint and decided that he would like to see his brother, so securing a ticket, he started for Hammond where he located him. Peter Hoist is now sixty-live years old and his brother, C. II. Hoist is seventy-two. The two brothers went to Chicago this morning to see the great metrop olis and will not be back until late this evening. Mr. Hoist will remain in Hammond until Juno 20, when he will leave for his hame at Frisco. PRESIDENT INVITED TO ATTEND MORTON UNVEILING III He Asked to Officiate at Kxerrlnea to be Held In Indiannpolta July 23 Cleveland's Presence IteqiieMed at Sigma CUl Fraternity Gathering Xext Friday. (Special to Lake County Times.) Indianapolis, Ind., May 28. The Rev D. It. Lucas, secretary of .the Morton Monument commission said today that the commission would ask President Roosevelt to come to this city again on July 23, and deliver the address dedicating the monument that is.be ing completed to the memory of Oliver P. Morton. The request has not been made .as yet, so -Rev,. Lucas doesnot know what the president will do. The arrangements are now "being made for that dedication, which will take place on the east plaza of the state house, facing Market street, A platform will be erected there, and this event will be made another big day for Indianapolis. So far as 'invitations go, Indianapolis has done its full share recently. President Roosevelt will be here Thursday to attend the Lawton exercises. ExPresident Cleveland lias been invited to attend the annual banquet of the members of the Sigma Chi fraternity at the Grand hotel next Friday. And now comes the second invitation to President Roosevelt. It is not expected that the president will be able to attend this unveiling. The fact that he will have been here less than two months before will probably serve as enough of an excuse, too. Dr. Lucas thinks, however, that there is some opportunity for getting him. IS YOUR DOG TAGGED? War is to be waged on canines with a vengeance by the police of this city. and hereafter all dogs, big and small, whether pet poodles or yellow mong reis, must Dear tne city license tag or go to the police station. The dogs will not be made to suffer alone, the own ers, too, will be prosectued by the police for allowing their pets to run loose. With the warm weather ap proaching the police must take all precautions necessary to protect the public, and Chief Rimbach wishes to give the owners warning before action will be taken.
