at the intersection of Capitol and
Fourth streets, the young man, who was
standing up in the wagon, was thrown
out, striking the back of his head upon
the hard gravel. His mind wandered
from the moment he was hurt. He re-
members nothing about the accident
and only speaks in monosyllables, if at
all. He is confined to his bed at the
residence of Geo. E. Hawley, where he
boards. DIR. Van Velsor is il attend
apce. Mr.. Corrsen has been a compe-
tent and popular assistant to Mr.. Porter,
who regrets very much that this acct
dent has happened.
A walk out on Walnut street any OF
these pleasant afternoons will be found
entertaining to those of our people who
do not know what change has been
made in the locality of the Northwestern
buildings by the advent of that road
The large, handsome grove Of cotton
wood trees on the Trip place, which
has grown from the seed almost, hal
been nesrly all removed and the grad,
for the railroad now runs over the land
AT the new round house a gang of car,
penters are at work putting in the turn
table. The round house itself is com
plete with the exception of the iron roo
and the doors and window sash. at th
. depot there are several brick masons a
: work and the building is progressin
. finely. Finnegan's grading force is stl
!. scraping away on the Tobin lots and
finishing up the principal grade, Th
grades for side tracks are nearly read.

schuyler colfax Dead.

MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi, Jan. l3.-Vice
President Schuyler Colfax dropped dead
in the Omaha depot at Mankato at 1920
this forenoon. He arrived over the Chi
cago, Milwaukee & St, Paul Railway and
walked over to the Omaha depot He
took off his overcoat. sat down and almost
Immediately fell over and expired. His
death is supposed to have been caused by
heart disease.
Ex-Vice President Schuyler Colfax
dropped dead at 1926 this morning at
Omaha depot. He arrived on the Mil
waukee road from the east at 10 O'Clock
and walked to Omaha depot, a distance
Of three-fourths of a mile with the Their
mometer at 80 degrees belowszero. After
arriving at the depot he lived only about
five minutes. 1t is supposed that the ex-
tremc cold, subsequent to the heat and
over exertion caused stoppage of the flow
of blood to the heart. The remains were
taken in charge by the Odd Fellows and
now lie at DR.. Harrington's residence.
Every attention is being paid to the re-
mains. Word has been sent to the family
of the deceased. The president has been
notified and orders are now awaited.
WAsHINGToN-In the House. Mr.
Browne, of Indiana arising said: II
perform a sad duty in announcing to the
house the death of Schuyler Colfax, at
one time speaker of this house, and late
vice president of the United States. A
telegram was received through the Asso-
ciated Press this afternoon about 2 o'clock
announcing this sad event. The house
as an expression of its sorrow Immediately
adjourned.
Souri, BEND, Ind, Jan. Is. The
news of the death of Mr.. Colfax created
the greatest CONSERVATION in this city,
where he passed his life from boyhood
and was so highly honored and respected.
He left here yesterday morning at I
o'clock. A note to the editor of the Trii-
blme from him said he wa compelled to
leave hat morning to free engagements in
northern Iowa, which were made months
ago. He concluded his note as follows;
81 feel regretful that l have to be away
from the funeral of a life long friend, Mr..
Burroughs, for there has been the warm
est friepdship between Is for over forty
years" 1t would seem that
Mr.. Colfax had %premonition of death.
On Saturday in the Tribune editorial room
he said: 81 have appointed Mr.. George
w. Matthews my executor" When
asked if he expected to pass away soon,
he replied II am liable to drop dead at
any moment" His remains will reach
here Thursday morning at . O'Clock. A
delegation of citizens will go from here to
Chicago to receive them. Mrs. Colfax
is completely Frustrated at the terrible
news. kilograms of consolation are
pouring in upon her from every part of
the country.

SOUTH BEND, Ind, Jan. l3.-Yester-
day the employees at the Oliver chilled
pillow works struck for higher wages and
compelled the men to quit. At an early
hour this morning 200 men congregated
in front of the gate and would not allow
any to enter. Those who tried to enter
were beaten about the head and body.
Officer Kelley while trying to quiet the
mob was shot through the scalp and badly
pounded. Capt. Ed. Nicar attempted to
go into the Office. They attacked him
with clubs. A number of shots were
fred. He was badly hurt about the head.
He entered and locked the door. and was
held a prisoner in the Office, his only com
m~unication being by telephone to the city.
The veteran guards of the G. A. R., mus
tered about seventy men to rescue Capt.
Nicar, who is a member Of the guards.
Sheriff Rackstrap empowered them to
act as state militia to preserve the peace
and to dispense strikers, on hearing this
some of the strikers left. Follwing is a
list of the wounded: Capt. Ed. Nicar,
Dave Hoffman, Mr.. Card, Officer Kelly
and Jacob Barndhardt, the foreman in
the paint shop. Immense crowds thronged
the streets and followed the guards to the
factory and great excitement prevails.
INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. l3.-Gov. Gray
received a telegram from George Rack
strap, sheriff of st. Joseph county,, say
ing: 1--WE are having a riot in South
Bendthis morning. Shooting and club
bling is going on and human life is in
danger. viii you please send a military
company, as we are utterly powerless. -
Gov. Gray thought that, as Rackstrap
was a new man he might have become
unduly anxious and declined to act until
he had received further information,
which up to l o'clock had not been forth
coming. Gray thinks that the local au-
thorities are able to cope with the situa-
ton, as he is at present advised oft.
Tonight all is quiet among the strikers.
There are fifteen of them in Jail and the
jail is guarded by detachments of troops as
rioters threaten to rescue them. The
Poles acknowledge that the sole cause Of
trouble is that they want more wages,
although they know there are good
mechanics working in the city at less
wages than they earn.

The Dispute still Unsettled.

Topeka, Kas., Jan. ia reporter
for the Associated Press called on James
F. Legate at his hotel this afternoon to
ask what he had to say concerning the
letter to j. s. Clarkson, published from
St Louis this morning, purporting TO
have been written by him to Clarkson
during the late presidential campaign.
Mr.. Legate replied, after several minutes
of cogitation, as follows: vThe Clarkson
letter l never wrote-that is [ never
wrote the letter to GARRISON of that date
4 wrote Clarkson a letter, part of which
is in the letter published this morning,
but he omits to state what l said and
makes me say what l never stated"
Mr.. Legate here grew excited and de-
clared that Clarkson had suppress
ed the names of every other man
to that transaction but his.
HE makes a talk" continued Legate,
of pledges made to St John when they
were made to other parties. Every page
of that letter 10 Clarkson was marked
confidential and he has violated every
principle of honor in publishing anything,
and every principle of honesty in distort-
ing the letter l did send him. 1 was
acting as the agent and doing the wish
of Mr.. Clarkson as a member Of the ma
tional committee and those with whom he
was associated in Ohio in all that was
done. With reference to the Kerns note
it is SO completely changed from what l
did say that it amounts to an open forgery.
Within a short time l intend to make 4
full statement of the whole matter, as far
as l know it, then let those kick hardest
who hurt most But 1 say now that SO
far as St. John is concerned in all those
things the Virgin Mary is not purer than
he"
The reporter asker Mr.. Legste to make
a statement relative to what the Clarkson
letter was as written but he declined and
would say nothing more.
DEMoNEs, Ia, Jan. 13.-In reply to
the Legate interview at Topeka tonight,
Mr.. Clarkson says: The letter from
Legate to me was dated Oct. 90 and was
given by me in the Globe Democrat in
terview exactly as he wrote it with not a
word or letter of it changed or left out.
The original l still have and any of Mr..
Legate's friends may see it. Every word
of it is in his own writing. | gave nc
other name han Legate as an agent oil
st. John because the Saint had no Other
huckster of whom l knew.
