New YORK, June 26.-'.Did you ever

north of Cheyenne. He was mounted

Messrs. Ramaley and Gray's Ex-

Yesterday noon violent wind storm
struck White Bear lake in advance of

most direct course to where j. Howard
Ramaley and Edward Gray were sailing
along most beautifully i'll Mr.. Ramaley's

hull. Afterwards deciding that it was
time for disappearing, he dove under the
boat to escape the driving rain. Men

SMALLPOX AT KINGSTON.
Excitement in the Thrifty New
York City.

KINGSTON, n. Y, June 26.-Much ex-
element was oceasioned over the out
break of smallpox here. A young man
came from New Jersey two weeks ago
to visit his uncle, Luther Durham, a
welI-known resident of this city.
Shortly after his arrival an outbreak
was noticed Oh his person and the fam
lily physician was summoned. He pro-
nounced it case of smallpox. Other
physicians differed in their opinion, bu t
advised the young man to leave the city,
which he did. In few days an erup-
ton made its appearance on Mrs. Dur
ham. and, during consultation be-
tween Health Officer Chambers and
other physicians yesterday, it was de-
cided that it was a genuine case of
smallpox. A number of persons ha d
already been exposed, but the famil y
has been quarantined and steps have
been taken to prevent the spread of the
disease.

The half crazed individual who said
his name was George Gordon, arrested
yesterday morning, is now Ill the county

is either crazy or under the influence
of some narcotic. He related to the
police yesterday pipe story, about be-
ing pursued by man who was eDdeav-
oring to poison him. When seen at the
iail last night he said his name was Cor
don. and his home was at Logansport,
Ind. He evidently had not fully re-
covered his senses, but admitted he
often took morphine for neuralgia. Ac-
cording TO his statements he arrived in
st. Paul from Grand Forks on Saturday
morning, on his way from Winnipeg.
At the last mentioned city he had been
visiting friend two or three weeks. In
a mysterious manner he limited at a con-
spiracy to take his life, which would re-

About this time Lieut.. Gov. Ives, of St.

And Used Criminal Means to Give
a Preference.

FORT ScoTT, Kas.. June 26.-James
McCracken, vino for years has been
known as one of the wealthiest farmers
and stock raisers of Missouri, was ar
rested late last night by Detective J. B.
Maps, of this city, and Sheriff Barrett,
of Barton county, Missouri, on the
charge of defrauding the Bank of Fort
Scott out of $1,000. Mr.. McCraeken
recently lost heavily on stocks and was
forced to the wall by his creditors, the
plaintiff in the action above referred TO
and two OF the Nevada banks. 1t is
alleged by the Bank of Fort Scott that
he used illegal and criminal means to
give the Nevada banks preference over
the Fort Scott bank in the distribution
of assets. He was brought TO this city
from Deerteld, Mo-, where he was
arrested without requiSitlon, and is
now in jail.

Lieut.. Gov. Ives Gatheri ng
in Delegates Of South
ern Counties.

The campaign which is about to open
in Minnesota will be one of the most
exciting and interesting in the history
of the state. For the first time in thirty
years the Republican party commences
its contest with the full knowledge that
il does not command the support OF
above one-third of the voters of the
state, and that party ties hang loosely
upon the people throughout the COM
monWealth, evidence of which is found
in the fact that no less than five parties
will place full state tickets in the field,
and make active campaigns on behalf
OF them. And the Republican party is
the only one Of the FIVE that will seek
to turn the fighting on the issues OF
twenty or more years ago us evidenced
by the attack of Senator c. h. Davis
upon the Democratic nominee for the
vice. presidency.
But the great mass Of the voters of
Minnesota are as tired of the issues
raised by Senator Davis as they are of
him, and they will insist that the CAM
paign be waged upon the issues of the
day.
The Prohibition party has already
placed lis ticket III the field, and a ca
Dable ard loyal campaign committee is
working eEtrgetically to bring out the
full vote of the party in November.
The old Alliance party has called state
convention fer July Z, and the Peoples
party will follow suit six days later.
The Republicans will meet in St. Paul
on June 2S. The Democratic state con-
ventiOn has not yet been called, but it
will be held early i'll August. and then
the fight will commence. Of course, 1t is
too early to make any prediction as
to the number of votes likely 10 be
pOlled by the several parties. More
than that, the Prohibition vote will cer-
tainly reach the figures Of the Fisk vote
of 1885, which went to 1871, and there
is every reason to expect that this figure
will be largely exceeded. st. John re-
ceived but 1861 votes in 1854, and the
agitation has been quite as vigorous
since 1883 as it was i'll the period be-
tween 1884 and 1888. Two years ago, 1t
is true. the Prohibition state ticket
pOlled but S. 424 votes, but this was due
to the position of the Alliance on the
liquor question, and will not have the
same force this year. The Prohibition
lists, therefore, may be expected to
attract about 10000 votes to the ticket
nominated i'll Minneapolis few days
ago.
Tho total vote of Minnesota this year
will approximate 900, 900 at the very low
est, and it may go $4,000 larger. A corr
parlsen of the total votes Of the state in
previous campaigns will show that 290,-
600 is reasonable estimate. In 1855
the total number of votes cast for the
gubernatOrial candidates. Auditor Bier
man and Gen. Hubbard, was 1918.
The next year, in the Clegeland-Blane
campaign. the total was almost q, 600
