An ANNOYANCE.

Sioux FALLS S. d., July 25.- Special Tele-
gram TO The BEE. The whole aim of the
South Dakota constitutional convention has
been to make no change not specifically au-
thorized by the omnibus bill, but the sched-
ulo committee is wrestling with a point
which puzzles it. Dakota's general election
for county officers and delegates in congress
occurs during the even years Under the
Sioux Falls constitution all state officers and
the legislature are to be elected for two
years. AS this election will be in an odd
year and as the usual county officers must
be elected next year South Dakota will have
an important election every year. The COM
mittee considers this undesirable and is try
ing 70 find some authority for making the
first term OF state officers either one year or
three years, but no light dawns
on the problem. This shows how
great is the annoyance in not
being able to m axe even the slightest change
in the Sioux Falls constitution. Another
instance of this developed to-day IN the con-
sderation of the report on education and
school land. The commtte saw a chance
more strongly TO protect school land as well
as to insert a formal acceptance from the
United States of the gift of land for public
changed the Sioux Falls constitution, aud
the report was adopted with the old section
restored unchanged. Almost without ex-
ception the delegates, who are all level
headed and consei vatlve men, regret their
inability to make a number of slight changes,
as a touch here and there would be greatly

School Lands Discussion.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., July 25.-There was a
full attendance at to-day's session of the con-
vention. The report of the committee on
legislative appointments was made special
order for to-day. 1t would seem to be ac-
ceptable to all parties as adopted without
discussion. Concessions were made to those
districts not entirely satisfied with the sena
torial apportionment by giving them addi-
tional representation in the lower house. A
spirited discussion took place when the re-,
port OF the committee on education and
school lands was reached. The committee
had recommended an amendment to the
Sioux Falls constitution so as to make the
lands granted for school purposes embrace
so, 900 acres granted for the state
capital fund and tying up said grant
so that it could only be sold
subject to the same restrictions, placed upon
the sale of the school lands. 1t was con-
tended that this convention has no right
under the omnibus bill to so amend the con-
stitution and further that granting the
right, 1t would be an iniudicious action to
place any Limitation on the disposal of this
grant, which was clearly made for the pur-
pose OF providing for state capitol. In this
view the convention concurred by SO amend
ing the report as to MAKE it conform to the
Sioux Falls constitution.
A special committee of five on a communi-
cation from the American Sabbath union TO-
day reported that the convention has no
power to amend the constitution by inserting

BISMARCK, N. d., July 25-The committee
on temperance to-day reported in favor of

ported its proposed article. 1t provides that

shall be trust fund, the principal of which
shall forever remain inviolate and may be
increased bnt never diminished, the state to
make good all losses thereon. The interest

the schools. After one year from the as
sembling of the first legislature lands, may
be disposed of as follows: Not more
than onefourth of the lands shall be sold
within five years, no more than one-half of
the remainder in ten years. The remainder
may be sold at not less than $40 per acre.
The legislative committee provides that the
senate shall consist of not less than thirty
nor more than fifty MEMBERS and the house
of not less than sixty nor more than 14O, sem
ators to be divided into two classes TO be

ton prohibits Sectarianism in schools and

tive provides that the governor shall hold

A MrLLloNAlRE's DEATH.
Some of the Achievements of the
Late Charlie mhgne Tower.

PHILADELPHIA, July Pa private dis
patch from Waterville, N. ", announces the
death at his summer residence there of
Charlemagne Tower, Of this ciW. Mr.. Tower
was in his eighty-first year, and death was
due 10 paralysis. He leaves four daughters
and q son and an enormous fortune. Mr..
Tower was born In Oneida county, New
York. He graduated from Harvard univer-
sity In 1880. He studied law in New York
city. where he practiced for some time, after
ward going TO Pennsylvania. His steps may
be traced through many great legal battles
in different counties of Pennsylvania. He
became the owner of large tracts of coal
lands, and was director in several corpora
tons He was actually interested in the con-
struction and management of the Northern
Pacific railroad and a member of its board of
directors for several years. The greatest
and most successful undertaking, perhaps, of
Mr. Towers long business career was his
development of the iron resources of Mime
sofa, now well known to the world as the
Nermillion range. II was about fifteen years
ago that Mr.. Tower learned of the existence
OF iron ore deposits near Vermilllon lake, a
body of water ninety miles northwest of Du-
luth. The country was then wilderness of
forest almost without paths. and exploration
was matter of great difficulty. An expert
was, however, sent out by Tower in 1875
10 Hdhe luOTOugn eNalilluullOn anu MS
report was SO favorable he pur-
chased about twenty thousand acres of
mineral land near the lake. Years were
required to get things into shape, and it was
not until 1888 that Mr. Tower had things In
readiness for the construction of u railroad.
He laid out a line of road from the lake to
a point on Lake Superior about thirty miles
northeast of Duluth, called Two Harbors.
Here Tower bought property, constructed
docks and acquired terminal facilities. The
mines were opened and a force of men set at
work digging one. Meanwhile the railroad
was being built. All through the win
ter of 1SS3-S4 force of 1 500 men were la
boring IN the Minnesota woods telling trees,
grading and laying tracks. The expenses
were enormous, but Mr.. Tower was equal TO
the demand upon his resources. Hundreds
of thousands of dollars were expended and
not u cent coming in. Through the spring
of 'S4 the work was pressed with
vigor and late in July the road was com.
pleted. On July 81, 1884, the first train load
of ore passed from Yermillion lake to Lake
Superior, whence IL was shipped on barges
to Cleveland. Before the close of the year
5000 tons of ore had been shipped from the
mines, and by 1887 the annual output had
been Increased to 400 600 tons. On June 5,
1887, Mr.. Tower disposed of his large inter-
ests in the Vermilion range to a syndicate.
On that day, in this city, Mr.. Tower handed
over to a syndicate the stock and bonds of
the Duluth s. Iron Range railroad and
title deeds to some twenty thousand acres of
land, and received in return certified checks
on banks ana financial Institutions to the
amount of over 81, 100000.

Montana and the Suffrage.

HELENA, Mont, July 25.-The discussion
of the suffrage bill to-day in the convention
brought out a heated debate. Hartmann Of
fered an amendment that voters must be
able to read and write the English language.
He wanted precaution taken against the
slums and criminals Of Europe. Educational
restrictions should be placed as a safeguard
around the polls Burleigh made an argu-
ment against the measure, claiming it would
disfranchse many soldiers. McGinnis said
Montana needed immigration. To disfran-
chise foreigners would stop it,. After further
discussion vote was taken, ana only II
voted for the amendment. The woman's suf-
frage question came up next The galleries
were filled with ladies. All the afternoon
was taken up with speeches pro and con and
yells Tor adjournment. Finally, AT q, a vote
was taken on the proposition that the legis-
lature may submit a universal suffrage 10
popular vote once in four years. 1t was de-
feated, and the convention adjourned until

BROUGHT INTO COURT.
A Preliminary Step in the Trial OF the
CrOnin Defendants.

CHICAGO, July 25.-TSpecial Telegram to
THE BEE. This afternoon the five defend
ants III the Cronin case-Beggs, O'Sullvan,
Coughlln, Woodruff and Kunze--were taken
before Judge Horton by order of States
Attorney Longenecker, and the question,
Are you ready for trial." put to each of
them. All but Coughlin replied, II am," and
after little discussion of the case were re-
manded back to jail. The answers of some
of the dcfendarts were unique. Kunze, for
instance, after stating that he was ready for
TRIAL, was asked by Judge Horton if he had a
lawyer, and replied like "a flash: mo. and
don't want one, either" Beggs was of the
same mind, but was charitable enough to
give his reasons for not wanting an attorney.
He sait: Il haven't got u lawyer and don't
know as want any. I've had considerable
expe rience with lawyers lately and it hasn't
done me any good.n oodruff wanted to
send word to Mr.. Keefe; Coughlin asked
that Lawyer Forrest be notified. and O'Sul-
livan said he wanted to confer with Mr..
Donahue, who has been looking after his
defense.
Just as the Judge ordered the defendants
taken back to Jail, Beggs said: Hold on; l
understand that rhe states attorney has
asked for continuance. IL that is so, l
would IKE to be heard in objection to any
delay" Judge Longenecker was on his feet
never more mistaken in your life. / have
not asked for continuance ana don't in
tend to. III you are as much mistaken in
your defense as you are about that you will
need a lawyer, and need him mighty bad"
The prisoners were then taken out of the
court by the sheriff, under orders from
Judge Horton to bring them before him again
tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. Judge
Longeneckers object in having the prisoners
thus arraigned was TO prevent them from
claiming the protection of the statute which
holds that in criminal cases the state must
be ready for trial ut the second after an in :
dlctm is returned. Woodruff is the only
one who can thus demand trial at
this time, as he was indicted for horse
stealing month before the indictment in
the murder case was found. The present
term of court is the second one since his
presentment and the states attorney will
proceed with his trial for the theft of the
horse from Liveryman Dean, in order that
he may hold him without question for the
more serious offense

A Silly SENSATION.
Evidently Designed by the Writer as
n Space Filler

WAsHISGToN, July Special Tels
to THE BEE. THE absence Of so many OF
the officials from Washington makes the
news market rather dull and causes some Of
the correspondents who are compelled 10 fill
q certain amount Of space every day TO in
vent new sensations. The latest was pub
lished tins morning in one of the New York
papers, and stated that Secretary Tracy is
about to resign for the purpose of accepting
a position on the supreme bench and that
MIR. Thompson, of Indiana, is to be made sec
retary of the navy. This appeared in the
same paper which stated positively, few
days ago, that Secretary Blaine had ten
dered his resignation, 10 take effect on the
lst of September.
Secretary Tracy, when seen in relation
to the subject, replied laconcally: "Abso-
lutte bosh; not word of truth in it'' There
is not much doubt that ore of the objects of
Attorney General Mixers visit to Deer
Park at this time is 10 consult the president
with reference TO the supreme court bench
vacancy but all predictions as to the out
come of the consultation are mere guesses
as neither the president nor any member Of
the cabinet has given out single hint as TO
who is likely to be elevated to the woolsack
In fact, it is doubtful II the president has
made up his mind on the subject himself yet.
