HEAT KILLS IN EAST
Mortality is Already Above Last
Year's Record.
FIERCE STORM ALSO IS FATAL
Prostration Reported From Chi'dRO,
New York, Philadelphia, Bos
ton and Elsewhere.
Chicago, June 29. In spite of occa
sional storms, there u no let-up yes
terday in the killing heat that has held
the whole Eastern section 01 me unit
ed States in its crip for the past week
Ten deaths were reported in this city,
due soielv to the heat: in New York
there wens two deaths from heat and
one from a thunder storm that swept
over the city late in the day. rros-
trations were almost without number,
here, in New York, in Philadelphia
and Boston.
Here there was some relief afforded
late last night, when a cooling breeie
went in from the lake. It was not
regarded as a permanent break in the
hot wave, however, and emergency or
ders were issued by the police throw
ing open the parks and playgrounds to
men and boys. Many took advantage
of this, and crowds from the poorer
sections of the city sought a breathing
space for the night in the open.
During the day a man named Carl
Summers became demented from the
excessive heat, and rushed into the
waters of Lake Michigan for relief.
Though he was rescued the shock prov
ed too great for him. and he died later
in the hospital.

poor children on a lake trip today.
TWO DEATHS tN NEW YORK.
Thunder Storm Does Great Damage
and Cools Air Somewhat.
New York, June 29. The second of
a series of cooling thunderstorms broke
over the city lae yesterday. There
was a sudden drop in temperature.
The storm was responsible for the death
of one man and injury of several. At
the Polo grounds the game between
New York and Brooklyn was about to
begin when lightning struck the flag
pole in center field, smashing the upper
portion of the staff into splinters and
tearing down the pennant flag which
the New York team won in J 90 5.
Before relief came two deaths were
added to the long list of temperature
victims. There were a score it proa-1

BALLINGER STARTS WEST.
Will Rid Indian Service of Incompe
tent Agents.
Chicago, June 28. Secretary R. A,
Ballinger, the "big chief of the D
partment of the Interior, sharpened hi
long knife and tomahawk today while
he was in Chicago, to go after the
scalps of a large number of Indian
agents on the reservation in the West
He spent the greater portion of the
day with Frank Sorenson, superintend'
ent of the Indian warehouse, and then
announce! that he waa getting ready
to rid the Indian agencies of numerous
incompetent hands.
He made no secret of the fact that
he is "heap brave," and is going on
the warpath to burn the red tape of the
department. He laid the foundation
for hi campaign in a long conterence
with Mr. Sorenson, making detailed
inquiries into the manner of conduct
ing business with agenU and inspected
the stock of goods on hand which are
being shipped daily by carloads to the
reservations.
Secretary Ballinger said tonight that
he was going to make radical change
in the manner of conducting Indian
affairs in the West.
"I am not afraid to cut away the red
tape when I see that it is hampering
the work of the department." said
Mr. Ballinger. "I think the principal
difficulty is with the incompetent
agents. They are not unscrupulous.
but it takes good business men and
men who understand the manners of
the Indians to deal with them."
Secretary Ballinger left late tonight
for Kansas.
BLOCKS GROWING OF BEETS.
Lack of Railroads Prevents Oregon
From Becoming Sugar State.
Washington, June 28. According to
the United States Department of Agri-
culture, lack of transp. rtation facili
ties in Oregon is seriously retarding
the development of the beet sugar in
dustry in that state. Oregon today has
but one beet sugar factory that at
La Grande. Capital has been looking
over the Eastern Oregon field and sev
eral localities have been found where
the growing of sugar beets on a large
sca'e wjuld prosper if there were ade
quate facilities for getting the beets
to a factory. But the almtt utter
lack of railroad transportation is an
obetale too great to be overcome in
most instancces. The department re
port indicates that there is prospect of
the installation of a sugar factory at
Enterprise, though no details are given
and the whole matter is still undecided.
Washington, like Oregon, has but a
singie sugar factory at tn a time.
That one is at Waveriy. There are a
number of places in Eastern Washing
ton, however, where the building of
i sugar factories is seriously contemplat

ports that companies have been formed ;
in some cases contracts have been
made with the farmers to grow sugar
beets; considerable capital has been
subscribed ; concessions have been
tentatively secured from towns, such
as free buildirg sites, remission of
taxes for a period of years and other
privileges. All these projects are
simply awaiting development or more
opportune conditions.

"Oh. ho, that's It. Is Itr and the cat-
tie king-to-be rode away. In his heart
was a Utile bitterness, for Dorine was
to him something better than the rest
of the girls of the town, north or
south, and he did Dot like at all the
tone of his companion's expression.
So North Mayrille prepared for Its
parade and speeches, and South May
vtlle did the same. Harry and Led met
often and exchanged notes as to tbe
progress of the work. It was to be a
very bitter rivalry.
For days tbe two sections of the
town were excited The tales of the
doings of "the other side" were related
with great exaggeration. Dorine beard
them and wondered If her party was
o be so very murn outshone.
.They tell me that they are getting
up a a rtrature of me," she said to
Warry. "
"They would not dare," was tbe
eager response. If they did I would
punish the author myself."
"WLo Is in charge of th other
lde?'
"Led Norton, of course."
Dortne's color heightened, but Harry
did not notice It. He was at last re
warded by securing ber promise thai
she would act tha principal part In
the parade. He went away wondering
how he could arrange It so that be
might be near her on the glorious
occasion.
On the eve of tha Important day
there was a gathering In tbe back
room of the Cattlemen's Club. Around
th table sat six of the largest owners
of stock on th range. They talked
of the morrow.
I am In favor of knocking them
out once for all. Colonel Norton was
saying. "That side of tbe town has
got to be wiped out eventually or our
property will be worthle. It' srsra
their old parade out of sight and let
them see that we are running the
town."
Borne objection was raised, but In
the end tbe worthies were sll satisfied
with a plan that promised dire trouble
for the neighboring burg. But only
th six rattle barons knew of It when
the morning dawned. The rivalry of
Western towns does not permit of
much confidence or exchange of cear
tesles. There was another conference that
night, but the cattlemen did not know
of IL Only two were In It Harry and
