a Conference with st. Croix County
0fficials---A Serious
Runaway.

Prison Hospital Steward Hall on
being asked yesterday as to how long a
lease of life Bob Younger had, replied:
''Bob is liable to die to-day or to-mor-
row from heart failure, though he may
linger along for two weeks yet. In my
opinion he cannot survive longer than
that length of time" Bob is now so
weak that it is impossible to hear his
faintly-whispered words without the
listener bends close to his lips. A short
time since Kuhn, the local photographer,
visited the prison with his camera, at
the request of Miss Retta Younger. and
secured negatives of each of the Young
ers, and also group comprising Cole,
jim, Bob and Miss Younger. The pho
tOgraphS, which are the first made of
the boys since their Imprisonment, are
splendid ones, and copyright has been
applied for by Miss Younger. Until
that is secured none of the pictures will
pass from her possession either by sale
or gift.
S. N. Hawkins, district attorney for
ST. Croix county, Wis, Lawyer j. W.
Bashford, of Hudson, and Richard
Baker and r. j. Hennessey, respec-
lively chairman of the board of super
viSors and assessor of st. Joe, the baili-
wick, opposite Saltwater. came over
yesterday to confer with City Attorney
Searles in reference to the tax levied
by the authorities of St. Joe, on the
east end of the Saltwater bridge across
Lake st. Croix. A satisfactory arrange
ment was at length reached, and st.
Joe will receive some addition to her
treasury by reason of the bridge tax.
Later in the afternoon the ST. Croix
county officials transacted business of
different nature with Mike Keough, who
conducts house of ill-fame on the Wis
consin shore, opposite this city. His
business there in that line has been
spasmodically interfered with by the
authorities on that side, and the confer
ence yesterday was sought by KeOugh,
with view to securing hereafter i'm
munlty from prosecution or other an
noyances at the hands of the Hudson
officers. The visitors were closeted
with Keough for some time in card
room of the Main street saloon, but the
result of the session was not announced.
Peter Kwasmiewski was thrown down,
trampled upon and kicked at the corner
of Main and Chestnut streets yesterday
by runaway team of horses attached
to the delivery wagon of James Hanson.
Peter was upon the sidewalk, and en-
deav0red to seek safety from the on
coming team behind a telephone pole,
but the animals collided with the pole,
swung around and fell with the man
underneath. He was taken to the city
hospital, and DR.. Waiter states that one
of his ribs was broken, and possibly
serious internal injuries inflicted. The
team had been left unattended when
the runaway started.
