The Hennepln Delegation TO Or-

There has been a great deal of talk
concerning the Hennepin delegation to
the Democratic state convention, and
no little speculation as to how it will
stand in the battle between Ames and
DOran. 1t has been given out that
Doran claims it, but the Ames men
laugh at it, and say it is a sample of the
DOran claims. They are certain of at
least twenty-five of the thirty-three
delegates, which, under the Instructions
Of the convention, gives them the entire
delegation. There are doubtless sew
eral men who would support AmeS
heartily for governor and not for dele
gate, but those are not reckOned in the
twenty-five given above. a call has
been issued for caucus tonight at the
city hall for organization, Titus Mareck,
chairman of the convention and dele
gate, having issued it.
1t is said Col. Glenn, giving it out that
he was going to Oshkosh, went to St.
Paul yesterday and was closeted
with Doran, but this is dis
credited. 1t is well enough
known that DOran has applied
very harsh language to Glenn, and tnat
he kept Glenn out of the pOstOtfice, so
that many are unwilling to believe the
pair could come together, or that Glenn
could support Doran even against Ames.
1t also seems to be belief outside OF
Minneapolis that a. T. Ankeny is for
Ames for delegate, but the fact is that
while Ankeny may have no objection to
AmeS. he is for DOran in this case.

DOESN'T WANT MUCH.
Forty Thousand Dollars Is All
That Mrs Luther Wants.

The case of Barbara Luther against
George G. Campbell, a prominent lum-
herman, for $4,000 damages for breach
Of promise, was begun yesterday before
Judge Young. Mrs. Luther is a dress
maker and teacher of the tailor system
Df making dresses and resides at 81
Eighth street south. She is grass"
widow, and testified that she obtained a
divorce from her husband about four
years ago, and that he is still living in
Wisconsin. She has two daughters,
both living in the city, one of whom is
married. She stated that Campbell be-
came acquainted with her in 1886,
through the inStrumentality of a mu-
tual friend, and that thereafter
he was constant visitor at
her house, and that just before
Christmas he asked her to marry him.
She stated that she accepted his offer,
and that they agreed on date in July
as a time for their marriage, he saying
that it would not be possible for him to
furnish home until after his logs came
down river, as he was rather short OF
money. She said that they talked about
their approaching marriage and
about what kind of house
they had better rent for
home. and that during the months of
May and June they went together and
looked at number of houses that were
for rent, but found nothing that suited
them. She said Campbell then talked
about building home on some lots
which he owned in North Minneapolis,
and that they were considering
the kind of a house they had
better build, when just before the time
set for their marriage she received a
letter from Campbell in which he stated
that he had concluded not to marry
her. Mrs. Luther it good-looking
woman, about thirtY-five years of age,
and of rather plump appearance. The
defendant is a man about fifty years
of age. a gars;s. widower, his
wife having left him some years ago,

ance. He has resided in this city for
the past twenty years and has been en-
gagged during the entire time in the

worth $4,000. The trial of the case
will probably last several DAYS.

WE'RE POISONED.
The Brown Family Were Poisoned,
but by Whom Is Not Known.

but by Whom Is Not Known.
Special to the Globe.
MASON CITY, To-, May 15.-The
Brown family poisoning affair is again
fruitful topic of surmise. 1t will be
remembered that the evening of March
the entire Brown family, consisting of
II. L., his son II. E., wife and two
children, were taken suddenly and Sc
riously i'll while seated at the supper
table, and, while three of the members
managed to pull through, the elder Mr..
Brown and the youngest child sue
cumbed. At their death an investiga-
ton was determined upon. The BODY
of Mr.. Brown, which had been buried,
was eXhumed and pOSt-mOrtem exam
nation held, the stomach being sent to
Chicago for chemical analysis. The re-
port of the analysis has been received,
and discloses that death was caused by
arsenical poisoning, the condition of
the stomach indicating that a large
quantity of the deadly drug had been
absorbed. To-day Coroner McFarlin
has been pursuing his investigations
with view of discovering by whom
the poison was administered, but he has
as yet reached no tangible results. A
box of rough on rats, 80 per cent of
which is arsenic, was purchased by Mrs.
Brown some months previous to the
poisoning. At the time that Fl. E.
Brown was seriously ill, and doubts
were entertained as to his recovery. he
stated to one of his neighbors that if he
ever was to get well he would spare no
time nor money i'll finding out how he
was poisoned. He also stated that there
was no poison about the house, and that
he would allow none bought by any
members of the family. When the Off
GERS came to exhume his fathers body
he became indignant, and declared

HEAVY DAMAGES.
A Verdict of $4,000 Against the
Northwestern Road.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
BELoIT, Wis, May 15.-The heaviest
damages ever allowed in this state was
to-day awarded in the HeddelS case be-
fore the circuit court. Heddels is the
boy who had both legs cut off by being
run over by the cars at GAINESVILLE. A
special verdict was ordered, and the
jury returned their decision early this
morning, awarding $4,000 to the plain
tiff. When the court reconvened to-day
motion was made to set aside the YER
d1ct and grant new trial on the
grounds of errors in the court rulings,
OF errors in the charge of the court and
OF excessive damages. This case is
pronounced by Judge Bennett as the
most important civil action that has
ever occurred to his knowledge i'll
Southern Wisconsin courts. The acct
dent which caused the case happened
some time ago on the Chicago & North
western track. Not only was Heddels
injured as above stated, but his nervous
system seems to be almost entirely
wrecked. The company claimed that
nolfagman or signal was required at
the crossing on which the accident oc-
Cured, and hence they were not liable
for damages on the same. The verdict
was rendered at daylight after an all
nights work Oh the thirty-five questions
involved in the special verdict.
