Towner Is Still Lost.

SpcCldl W tu6 0lOUS
GRAND FORKS, N. D., Feb. 24.-Par-
ties from Towner and McHenry coun-
ties. of whom Col. Towner contracted
to purchase land, are in the city looking
for the lost colonel. Judge Bennett, of
Bottineau, engaged as colonization
agent of Towner, is in the city tonight.
He denies all reports that the land
company knows anything of Towner's
whereabouts, although now con-
vinced that Towner's disappearance is
voluntary, surmised to escape the con-
sequence of some shady deal in connec-
ton with railroad enterprise in which
he engaged last year near Seattle.
Towner's escapade does not necessarily
involve the land company. A meeting
is soon to be held to determine what ac-
ton to take.
c. F. Arroll and j. G. Stephen. of st.
Paul, are the incorporators of the Grand
Forks Electric Street railway.

ABERDEEN. s. D., Feb. PA decis-
ion of great Importance respecting the
celebrated Dayton land by Commits
siOner Carter, of the general land office,
was received today by Register Braden
and Receiver Mcleod. 1t in effect de-
MES the claims of all contestants except
Messrs. John Il. McChesney and James
M. Kean, who have applied to locate
POrterfeld scrip for land. The COM
missioner takes the position that mas
much as the land is situated within the
limits of the city it is not subject to dis
posal under the presumption, homestead
or timber culture laws, but that it is
subject to entry by means of Porterfield
scrip. In support of his opinion he cites
the decision of the secretary of the in
terror in the celebrated Seattle town
site case. Of course all claimants, in
Guiding the city of Aberdeen. which de-
sires the land, will be given opportunity
to appeal, and the case is not thought to

NEW YORK, Feb. 24.-AccOrding to a
statement published this morning, late
Saturday and on into Sunday morn
ing, twentysix anti-Hill leaders at
Albany were in secret conference
in the private office of Senator Chase.
During the conference the question of
the amount of money needed was
raised. Ex-Seeretary OF the Treasury
!Fairchild said that he did not think a
largessnui world be required. 1t was
estimated that from $1,000 to 30.0oo
would be sufficient sum to meet every
expense. and that amount, was virtually
pledged at this conference.
The Intention now is to elect at
Syracuse in May a delegation of repre-
sentative Democrats who, upon arrival
at Chicago.,will first make demand on
the national Democratic committee for
recognition. Whether the delegation
will capture the committee or not
is a matter of doubt. Mr..
Grace thinks it is possible; Mr..
Fairchild believes it Is certain. With
the backing of the national committee,
the delegation will be in all excellent
condition to appeal to the convention
for recognition. 1t does not expect to
demand that the Hill delegation be
thrown out, but it will ask that both
delegates be seated, each to have half
the vote.

The duty is clear, he says, and the

everything save the mails and citizens
of this country now abroad, and TO
admit these only after perfect precau-
ton. His idea is that there are not

side-ed In comparison 10 safety to life.
He has always held this country TO
be dependent on no other, save
for some Of the luxuries OF
life. and he thinks that while we may
lose and may cause loss In some quarters
such matters can easily be adjusted. lie
wants everything on the water on the

he would have the border policed 10

YESTERDAYS CHOLERA CASES.
More Deaths and a Further Spread OF
the Disease Among the Immigrants at
New York-Serious State of Affairs.

QUARANTINE, New York, September
5.-The situation at quarantine is, as far
as any information has been obtained,
practically unchanged since DIR.
Jenkins returned from the islands last
night, and reports two additional deaths
on the Normannia, one on the Rugia
and one on the Morayia.
All the passengers in the steerage OF
the Normannia have been transferred
to Hoffman Island, where they will re-
main under observation. Six cases OF
cholera were transferred to the hospital
on Swinburne Island. This leaves the
Normannia with no one sick on board
and with no steerage passengers.
The Moravia has no sick but has her
cabin and steerage passengers on board.
The Rugia has no sick and her cabin
and steerage passengers are on board.
The steerage passengers on Hoffman
Island are Of course liable to develop
the disease, but they will at once be
transferred to the hospital at Swim
burne Island if taken sick.
The Fulda is not likely to suffer
much convenience as she came from
Genoa and has no sickness, and as Italy
is entirely free from the cholera.
The Darmstadt will probably be put
through a severer course as she came
from Bremen which although free
from cholera, is not far from Hamburg
and as she has large number OF
emigrants on board.
