Mrs. Hedpcth Is Determined Not to Be-
tray Her Husband.
SAN Francisco, Jan. 11.-Mrs. Maggie
Hedpeth, wife of Marion Hedpeth, who
is wanted for completely in the robbery
OF train at Glendale, few miles west
of St. Louis, Mo-, left for st. Louis to-
night in charge of Detective Tracy and
Policeman Charles Cody. AS it was
feared that an attempt might be made
to release Mrs. Hedpeth, Chief Crowley
selected Cody to accompany her to St.
Louis. The woman has not had any
thing to say concerning her arrest, and
the efforts of the police to get her to
talk have proved futile. She is deter
mined that her husband will never be
caught by any lapse made by her. While
in the city prison she talked freely on
any subject but the robbery.

DEMOCRATIC CLANS
Gathering at the Ccagentioa il

Surprising Changes All Around.
Two Candidates for Temporary
Chairman-WhO They Are-whaI
will be the Outcome.
DETRoIT, June 17.-All is not harmony in
the democratic delegation to Chicago. Ii
has been thought all along that the delega
ton was solid for Cleveland, but w. T.
Baker, one Of the delegates, says deal has
just been made by which at least twenty
will vote for Hill
CHICAGO, June 17.-An indianapolis spe-
cial says: cat a conference between the
friends of Cleveland and Gray, it was de-
cided to withdraw the latter's candidacy
for both first and second place, and that he
be given a cabinet position if Cleveland is
elected"
w. f. Bissell, of Buffalo, Cleveland's
former law partner, is here hustling for
Grover. He says Cleveland is the logical
candidate in view of the nomination OF
Harrison on a high tariff platform, and
that he is the strongest candidate in New
York, because he can carry the independ-
ent vote, which is very large in that state.
He declares it is the OfficehOlders in New
candidacy of Hill.
A formidable candidate of Adlai E. Ste.
venson, Of Illinois, for temporary chair
man, has sprung up in the person of w. G.
Owens, of Kentucky, who is being backed
by Henry WattersOn. Mr.. Stevenson
has been taking things easy, but
this morning found it necessary to
20 to work for the place. The selection OF
Owens while not antagOnistic to Cleve-
land would be less favorble to him than
General Stevenson. The principal objec-
tion to Stevenson is the fact that he was
sent to congress by the greenbackers some
years ago. On the other hand Stevenson is
personally very popular.
The Indiana delegation is somewhat di.
vided on the question Of the adVisability OF
pushing Gray's candidacy and a lively
time is expected at the caucus of that dele
cation. An effort will be made to swing
the delegation solid for him.

DELAvAN, Mimi, June ia cyclone
which passed near here Wednesday after
noon crushed the barn belonging to Mr. H.
Duffy md passed to the farm of G. Leiten-
berger The family ran for their lives.
Part Of them reached shelter uninjured.
The storm struck the house and reduced it
to splinters. One of the children, girl of
7, was killed. Leitenberger and another of
the children was seriously injured. A mile
east the house of L. Pitcher was unroofed,
a man named Armstrong was moved from
the foundation. Barns and other out
houses were destroyed. Passing on it
swept everything in it's path, killing three
persons, two miles further east. A late re-
port makes the number killed in this vicin-
ity six with thirty injured.
ALBERT LEA, Mimi, June 17.-Every re-
port adds to the list of injured and loss of
property. Three children were killed in
Martin county. The list of casualties in
Faribault county is long one. It is hard
to ascertain. Thus far six deaths are re-
ported in that county with many injured.
The destruction of property cannot be esti-
mated as the path Of the cyclone was
through the richest farming country in the
state
In FreebOrn county it is now reported
that Andrew Hansen, Mrs. Mike Iverson
and three children, of Freeborn township
a child of J. Steen, the families of NJ She

wife and child of c. Christopherssn, and
two others, names unknown, are seriously
injured. 1t is reported that an unknown
man was drowned near Hartland
MANKATo, Mimi, June 1.-THE latest
developments substantiate the gravest fears
of yesterday as to the cyclone. The death
loss amounts to at least thirty, and seven
teen bodies have been recovered thus far,
with large territory to hear from. The
cyclone was the largest that ever visited
the northwest.
ST. PAUL, June 17.-As later reports are
received the list of dead by Wednesdays
cyclone grows less, the large number being
made by the duplication of names and the
same names spelled differently. 1t now
seems that twenty lives were lost, though
this may be increased somewhat by later
reports from distant points and by deaths
among the injured. The greatest loss is
about Wells and Minnesota lake. The list
Of dead as far as known, includes those in
that neighborhood and around Hartland.
The dead are: John Brown and wife, Her
man Brenner, Mrs. John Latsuick, son of
Maland Stein, Mrs. John Della, son of John
Pietros, Michael Iverson, wife and three

STATE POLITICAL POINTERs.

The Skamokawa Eagle has nominated
Hon. o. A. Bowen, of Wahkiakuln county,
for state treasurer. The Bulletin takes
pleasure in seconding that nomination.
Mr.. Bowen is an able man with a clean
record and is well known in the state of
Washington. He was elected member of
the constitutional convention in 1889, by
a rousing majorJy, and was one of the
most prominent and useful members in
that convention. He has been secretary
of the republican state central committee,
register of the United States land Office at
Vancouver, and is now deputy state treas
urer. He has thus obtained an experience
that is very necessary in so important an
Office. He is a grand army man, unassum-
ing in manner, and combines elements of
strength seldom found in one man. We
believe him to be able and honest, a good
representative of the great republican party
of the state of Washington.-Ka
Bulletin.
Henry Drum thinks that Thomas M.
Reed or Senator John b. Allen will be the
republican nominee for governor.

JAMESON is ARRESTED.
He Is Found in "a Victoria Hospital
and is ParaIyzed.

ana Is EdraIYZe0s
William jameson has been arrested in
Victoria. He fled from Olympia to British
Columbia two weeks before the story came
out that he was Implicated with A. J. Lit
tleiohn, of Olympia, and Jas. T. Elder, of
stealing documents from the general land
Office in Washington for the purpose of Sc
curing title to 200 acres of land worth
$25O,O00 in section 7, southern part of Ia
coma. He left his family unprovided for.
He went to Departure bay and secured
work at his profession, surveying on a
tOWnsite. He had not worked long before
he was stricken with paralysis. brought
on, he claims, by the worry and nervous
strain caused by this trouble. His left
side was paralyzed, his memory impaired
and his mouth twisted to one side. He
was taken to the Victoria hospital. He
gradually recovered until now he can walk
slowly and haltingly and speak in a stam-
mering fashion. A REIMBURSEMENT is re-
ferred to by jameson which clouded the
title when Llttlejohn was arranging to Sc
cure the land from Elder. Elder saws it
was forgery. To get rid Of this relin-
quishment it is alleged Littlejohn concoct-
ed the scheme to steal the records after he
had bought the property of Elder. Mar
shal L. K. Brown took Jameson in charge
and says that with this important witness
secured, no time will be lost in bringing
the ring of spectators who were behind
the scheme to justice.
