CaIkfns, Gross, Huson and Detective
Sullivan as Factors In the Campaign.
TACOMA, March A-[Special. Politics
is the absorbing topic here. The Demo-
Gratis say they viii go Seattle one better,
but the Republicans declare that
the Seattle defeat will stimulate
them TO activity, strong candidates
and victory in Tacoma. Alexander Par
ker leads as the most DESTROYS among the
Democratic candidates, to head the ticket.
From the fact that Mr.. Parker used to loan
money at 2 per cent. per
month, he is known among many
Of his friends as sold Two Per Cent"
Parker.
W. Fl. Calkins is the las. man to be
named in connection with the Republican
nomination for mayor. He has not con-
sented to allow his name to be used. The
friends Of Morris Gross, the well-known
member Of the firm of Gross Bros, dry
goods merchants. are confident that he
could be elected if nominated, but there's
the rub! Some Of the Republican cogs
do not want him nominated. Mr.. Gross
is successful business man and promises
a s4uare-toed business administration
from to q. He was prominent candi-
date for the Office two years ago, and was
virtually promised the nomination, but at
the last moment he was deserted by those
who were thought to be friendly to his
nomination.
Detective u. C. Sullivan is here. and it
Is said he will take hand in local NUM-
ipal politics, but Mr.. Sullivan said this
afternoon that that was a mistake, and
denied that he would play any part what
ever. The story goes that Sullivan
and couple of Republican officials
connected with the legal and
financial department of the administra-
ton, respectively. were to sidetrack Gross
in the interest OF II. S. Huson, formerly
principal assistant engineer of the North
ern Pacific.
Conservative Republicans have given
notice that they will be satisfied only with
strong, clean candidates.
Colonel Eddy, Of Olympia, and Morris
Gross addressed the Republican mass
meeting at Alpha opera-honse tonight.

WINISGToN, Del, March 14-E1-Sec-e-
tary Bayard has addressed an open letter
TO the Democrats in which he takes uD the
anti-free coinage of silver. He stated in
the letter that he "deplores the false posi-
ton Of the government in 1875 in entering
the market rs purchaser of silver bullion
and forcing its coinage into money" He
is thankful that such grave errors cannot
be laid ct the door of the Democratic
party, and expresses the belief that Demo-
Gratis. in talking free silver, are clothing
the party with diseased and fatal gar
ments, and impeding its march to power
and usefulness by the ball and chain of
suicidal error.

DIR. scudder Arraigned.

CHICAGO, March 1.-The preliminary
examination of Dr. Scudder on the charge
of murder took place this afternoon. The
prisoner remained in a seeming stupor
throughout the proceedings except when
portion of the skull of the murdered
woman was produced in evidence. Two
witnesses were examined, F. II. Dunton
and DR.. Palmer. The only fact not hereto
fore brought out was that the sleeves of Mr..
Dunton's nightshirt were spotted with
blood after the discovery that his wife had
been injured. DR.. Palmer testified tina;
Mrs. Dunton's death beyond all doubt re-
suited from being pounded on the head.
The examination will be resumed to.

PoRTLASD, March 14.-[Special. "A. ".
Lambert was elected school director TODAY
by Ell majority over Thomas F. Os-
born, president of the chamber of
commerce and chairman of the
citizens committee of 100. 1t was
the first time in the history of Portland
that politics has figured in a school cleo
ton, and the election has an important
bearing on the coming state election.
Osborn was strongly opposed By the
Republicans for leading the citizens
movement against the Republican CITY
ticket last June and defeating it. and
by those Democrats who were against the
proposed fusion of Democrats and citizens
in June. Osaoru's defeat means that the
citizens will either not put up ticket. or.
if they do, it will be defeated. The Re-
pUblicans consider it the deathblow to the
citizens movement

THE OZARK LYNCHING
Citizens Bent on Wreaking
Vengeance on the Mob.
FOR KILLING A DEPUTY SHERIFF.
The Csroner's Jury in the Robinson
Inquest Charges Lieutenant Hsth-
srington With wnIfuI Murder.

Kansas CRY, March 14-Additional de-
tails of the lynching near Ozark, Mo-, Of
John Bright, the wife murderer. received
to-day, show that the affair was unusually
sensational, also that another death re-
suited beside Bright's. The man had been
captured and was being given a prelimi-
nary trial. A mob Of 100 men quietly
gathered around the courthouse and sent
in twenty-five OF their number to request
that the prisoner be turned over 70 them.
The presiding judge pleaded that the law
be allowed to take its course, and Deputy
Sheriff Williams. In charge of the man,
suggested that it would be best to listen to
the argument of the judge, as he (WilIiams),
intended TO defend the prisoner with his
life, at the same time drawing brace OF
revolvers. The spectators N the court
room. of whom there were q number, i'm
mediately began to beat hasty retreat.
A delegation from the mob started toward
the prisoner. and Williams raised his re-
volvers, but before he could shoot was
himself shot through the heart by one of
the mob, dying instantly.
The mob then took the prisoner across
the street, and without giving him an OPP
portunity Of saying word, hanged him in
full view of the courthouse, where be was
promised by law fair and impartial trial.
The county where the lynching occurred
lie wild with excitement. Young Williams,
the deputy who was shot by the mob, was
very popular, and nine of the men who
did the work are well identified. This
morning a large posse under the
guidance of the sheriff started to
arrest these men. Sheriff Cook is brave.
and will search until he finds the men
who killed his deputy. He will be as
sisted by many people. who, while glad
Bright has been punished for his crime,
are Wild over the killing of Williams.
When the posse meets the members Of the
mob Il Is feared there will be war.
