KANSAS CITY, Feb. 23,-An enormous
wolf hunt took place Saturday
over in Crawford and Bourbon counties,
Kan. As result about 800 wolves lie
dead. Both counties and others adjotn-
ing were secured by over 5000 men,
women and children, armed in all con-
ceivable ways. Two thousand jack
jack rabbits were also captured in the
general round up.
Owing to an error in signaling there
was one break in the line which reduced
the number of captures, but another
hunt will take place next Saturday to
finally wind up the foxes and wolves Of
Southern Kansas. There was but one
accident, Thomas Perkins being very
seriously bitten by two wolves. He will
not recover as he was torn fearfully by
the infuriated animals.
The hunt was divided into four lines.

in the party. Each side was fifty miles
long, the square working up to the

ALBANY, N. Y, Feb. 23.-The day
opened cloudy, but, happily. without
pros poets of rain to dampen the ardor of
Democratic hosts who began to gather
at an early hour. The Elmira delega-
ton of $50 with Hill badges on their
coats arrived at a. m. They found
streets too muddy for parading. Bing-
hampton's 100 came on the same train.
Erie county, 700 strong, and Troy with
500 made their appearance about .
o'clock. BY that time the Tammany
delegates were out in force and
the streets and hotel Hobbies
presented a crowded and lively
appearance. Senator Hill was up by
1880 consulting with his leutenants, and
the committee of protest were also busy
at their headquarters in the Kenemore.

The state committee met at $50 a. IN.

three contests were noted and all were
quickly settled. Then the committee of
protest was admitted and Bourke Cock
ran asked Ellery Anderson, its spokes-
man, If the protest was not prepared be-
fore the date of the convention had been
fixed. Mr.. Anderson admitted that il
was prepared two days before, but j,
had been rumored that the date would
be Feb. 60 Mr.. Grady, of the state
committee, said it was evident that the
protest was against the candidate, not
against the date. Mr.. Grace denied
this. On motion of Mr.. Cochran

adjourned after selecting the following

MADISON. SOUTH DAKOTA TUESDAY, FEBRUARY 23 1892

in the south, put parried the question
by the remark that he did not mix poll
tics with pleasure. He reiterated his
belief that the tariff would be the issue
on which the Democracy would go be-
fore the people this year. To the ques-
tion, What about Hill?' he gave no
reply, and 70 q similar question relative
to General Alger he replied that he did
not believe ut this time he was called
upon 70 pass Judgment upon any man.
A short stop was made at Ypsilanti at
which place he said few words to the
crowd that greeted him at the station.
Greeted with Yell.
At Ann Arbor when the train arrived
several hundred people were about the
station, including $500 students, who
raised their characteristic yell when Mr.
Cleveland, accompanied by Mr.. Dickin-
son, Richard Watson Glider, of the
Century Magazine, Wilson s. Bissell, Of
Buffalo. and the Detroit escort passed to
the platform. 1t was several minutes
before MIR. Cleveland's 'I thank YOU
could be heard. Mayor Doty, repre-
senting the corporation of Ann Arbor,
then made brief address to the ex-
president, welcoming him to Michigan's
university city, and rendering him the
freedom Of the city, at the same time
presenting silver plate upon which
the reso lutions of welcome adopted by
the local council were engraved.
The whole party took carriages for
the center of the city and pandemonium
seemed let loose during the mile of the
journey. The mud was foot deep in
the streets but the 10000 people
who followed the line of carriages,
trudged along without being seemingly
inconvenienced. The deeper the mud
the louder the students yelled for Mr..
Cleveland, and his Ann Arbor reception
constitutes undoubtedly the noisiest for
the number of the participants to which
Mr.. Cleveland has been treated. A car
riage drive about the university campus,
giving an opportunity to view the
schools of arts, law, medicine, mechani-
cal engineering, dental college and
library followed, after which the ex-
president and his company were enter
tanned at lunch by Professor Thompson.
Ex-Governor Campbell of Ohio arrived
in Ann Arbor in the morning and
joined Mr.. Cleveland's party here.
AT O'Clock Mr.. Cleveland and his
party, under escort of President Angel
and the university faculty, proceeded
to University Hall. which was filled to
its fullest capacity. There. were 5000
people present when President ANGEL
introduced the distinguished visitor.
Mr.. Clevelands remarks were freely
and frequently interrupted by applause.
When he had concluded he was sur
rouf fded by m admiring crowd anxious
to nder CONGRATULATIONS. After the
address the ex-president and his party
were entertained by President Angel at
dinner. In the evening at o'clock a
reception was rendered Mr.. Cleveland
in the court house. Several thousand
people were introduced and at 10
o'clock the whole party returned to De-
troit by special train.

CLEVELAND COMING OUT.

Said That His Candidacy Will he An

New YORK, Feb. 23.-A special from
Columbus, o., to The Herald says: At
the conference in Ann Arbor Mr.. ,Cleve-
land will announce his candidacy, and
say that on only one issue should the
campaign be made the tariff. He will
also say that on that issue he can be
elected without the vote of New Yerk.
as he can carry Illinois, Iowa, Wiscon-
sin, Montana, Oregon, California, as
well as Indiana, New Jersey, Connecti-
cut, Massachusetts, and New Hamp-
shire. The programme of Cleveland
and Campbell is to make the fight with
out regard to New York; to make it on
the tariff aud carry the states above
mentioned and the solid South. 1t is in
the programme for Ex-Governor Gray
to be the candidate for vice
president, who, with Campbell
and others, will stump the
Northwest. Mr.. Cleveland win look
after the New England states. This is
the plan mapped out and will be an
nounced from the Ann Arbor caucus.
Mr.. Cleveland says, so it is learned from
persons close to Ex-Governor Campbell,
that he will have considerably over the
necessary two-thirds on the first ballot
in the Chicago convention, and that
Hill will get New York, possibly eight
or nine votes in Ohio, and have strag-
Cling delegates in other states, but not
enough to make it heard from in the
convention all told. The foregoing
was learned from the Campbell-C Cleve-
land bureau here. with the information
that it will be verified at Ann Arbor.
