SUDDEN DEATH.
Mrs. j. 81. Schumacher SuccumSs
to an OperatiOn

Mrs. j. 81. Schumacher SucCumos
to an Operation.
Mrs. j. II. Schumacher. wife of the
proprietor of the Schumacher Wagon and
Carriage company, of this city, died
very suddenly at private hospital in
minneapolis yesterday morning. The
death certificate that accompanied the
body stated that death resulted from
Cancer OF the stomach. As Mrs. Sehur-
meier was known to have no such dis
ease. and physicians by whom she had
been treated in this city gave such
statements, an investigation was made.
1t appeared that Mrs. Schumacher had
gone TO Minneapolis for surgical eper-
alton. From the shock following
the operation. it is alleged, she never
rallied. The attention of DR.. Whitconb
in his official capacity as coroner was
called to the case by relatives of the de-
ceased, and last evening an autopsy was
held. Those assisting were Drs. Fin
nell. REM and Whitcamb. Just what
the post mortem revealed could not be
ascertained from any of the surgeons.
but sufficient was learned to verify the
statement that death was not the result
of cancer of the stomach, as stated in
the death certificate. After the post
norton Coroner WhItcomb cOmmuni-
Gated with Coroner Spring. Of Henne-
pin county, and that official visited ST.
Paul last evening. The result Of the
visit was that an official investigation
of the circumstances leading to the
death of Mrs. Schumacher will be held
at Minneapolis this morning. Among
the witnesses who will be called on to
testify are the three physicians who as
sisted at the autopsy.
The funeral will be held from the
German Nj. E. church at pm. Monday.
The deceased, who was married to j..
III. Schumacher year and half ago.
formerly resided in Winona, and at the
time of her marriage was the widow of
Methodist minister. She was forty
three years old at the time of her death.

LOSES $4,000.
UNIVERSITY INCOME REDUCED
UNEXPECTEDLY.
A Lower Assessment the Cause of the
railing Otf-Business Matters
Considered.

The state university regents held
meeting at the university yesterday,
President Bartlett and most of the
members being present. The time was
chiefly devoted to discussing the finan-
cial situation. The board very unex-
pectedly finds itself short of $4,000 as
a result of the REDUCED assessed valua-
ton of property made by the state au-
thorities this year. Considerable of
the university income comes from di-
rect taxation, and a steady income
from that source rather than a de-
crease is yearly anticipated. The
board also deliberated upon matters
connected with the central heating
plant now in course of construction
and passed upon divers other concerns,
but only to a. limited extent of ap -
structional character.

Il The increased tax Of 10 Of per
cent. a glass on beer will be borne
by the brewers and retailers out of
their large profits, and will not add
to the price or reduce the siZs of the
glass bought by the drinker of this
class of brewage, and the tax upon
wine being the same as beer will not
be burdensome or oppressive to any
consumer.
D. The tax upon tea nd coffee is
at the extremely low rate of about l
mill per cup and may be called pure
revenue Tax.
''6. Under this bill no income tax is
required and no increase of the whisky
tax is needed.

London, July 2S.-Carl Siewers. a
Norwegian arctic enthusiast, received
a telegram from the captain of the Err
ling, a Norwegian sealer which arrived
yesterday at Tromsoe, Norway The
captain said that near the Amsterdam
Island, in latitude 81 \ and longitude
0 the Erling spoke to the Ragnay-
aid Jarl steamer which was conveying
the Wellman arctic expedition. The
Ragnavald, in replying to signals,
asked to be reported at the nearest
place the Erling touched at, saying all
was we'll on board.
The Ragnavald Jarl was beset by
packed ice which delayed her progress
considerably. But Wellman and party
were then fire. from the packed ice
and should now be we'll on the way to
the North pole.

Memphis, Tenn, July 2S.-Convicts
at Tracey City are in a state of mutiny
and as result two men are dead and
two others are suffering from wounds.
Yesterday afternoon the convicts load

There were 115 convicts in the mines

CLEVELAND'S SOLICTTUDE.
Pending Tariff Legislation Causes l., i
dent Anxiety.

Washington, July 2S-A messenger
from the executive mansion reached
the house Of representatives half an
hour after the senate voted to send
the tariff bill back to conference, with
a note for Representative McMillin,
ranking house o0nfeTee in the absence
of Mr.. Wilson, asking him to call at
the white house. This following the
conference between the president and
Speaker Crisp earlier in the day, is
taken to indicate the SOicitude the
president feels on the outcome of the
second conference.
Mr. Mcmillan declined to talk of
his call en- the president, The demo-
cratic confereeS wall hold an informal
meeting tomorrow and Senator Jones
said yesterday that a full conference,
including the republican members,
would probably be called together

conference, but it is not regarded as
likely of adoption.

POTATOES INJURED.
Permanent Harm Wrought by the Hot
Weather Crop Report.

The crop bulletin OF the Wisconsin
weather service for the week ending
Tuesday, JEy oath, says that the
weather was hot and dry up to the
10Th, when the drouth was partly
broken by fine showers on that day,
giving temporary relief only, as the
soil is now as dry as before, except
in the eastern counties, where the
rainfall was considerable and vegeta-
ton has revived somewhat. Haying
is completed and a fair crop secured.
Wheat, rye and barley about all cut
and in stack. The crop is good in
some sections and in others below the
average.
Oats are now being cut and while
the heat and drouth have ripened them
too rapidly in most sections, the crop
as turning out better than was eX-
pected, the early sown especially being
fully up to the average. In some
counties in the western part Of the
state the oat crop is very poor.
Potatoes are permanently injured
and in some counties the crop will be
partial failure, while in others a fair
crop is anticipated.
Corn is doing fairly we'll. Some
fields are showing the effects of
! drouth, but generally the crop is re-
ported in good condition, though rain
would be of great benefit. Tobacco
is suffering from drouth but continues
to look well.
Pastures are mostly burned up and
! in some sections stock is being fed.
The average rainfall for the past
week is about 40 of an inch. The fol

SITUATION EXTREMELY GRAVE.
Frequent Conferences of Democrats
to Harmonic Differences.

Washington, Juy 31.-For the first
time since the tariff bill has been in
conference there are signs Of waver-
ing in the strong tone that has stood
behind the senate bill. The house con-
ferees feel the situation is changing
in their favor. The democratic men,
bers of both houses appreciate the ex-
IRENE gravity of the situation. Demo
cratic senators who will say anything
say that to all appearances the house
conferees are as unyielding as they
have been at any time. Conferences
among dmocratic leaders in the senate
and between these senators and dem
ocratic members Of the house have
been frequent since the conference ad-
tourned yesterday and they have been
held with a view Of harmonizing the
differences if possible. The democrats
will meet in formal cor ference again
today.

Phillips, Wis, July 30.-Thirty-n
buildings out of seven hundred stand
amid smoke and ashes on the scene Of
what yesterday was the fourishing
city of Phillips, the county seat of
Price county and one of the wealthiest
and most prosperous of all the towns
IN the timber regions of Wisconsin.
Three thousand people are homeless
and except those who have been offer
ed shelter in neighboring towns,
passed a sleepleSs night, through fear
that the fierce fires raging in the forest
on all sides would sweep away the few
remaining homes at any hour. They
had no covering for their WORKOUT
bodies last night. Worse than all is
the fearful fact that at least thirteen
people are known to be lost.
The dead as far as known are:
James Locke, butcher, wife and
five children; Frank Cliss and his
twO-year-old child; Mrs. Frank Bry-
den, and two children; F. w. Sack
EFT, editor of the Phillips Times.
Mr.. Dryden returned here last night,
having been away from the city, only
to hear that his family had persisted.
The property loss will reach at least
S1,250,9OO. The immense plant Of the
John r. Davis Lumber company, is a
total loss, amounting to between $780,
000 and 100000 with insurance equal
to four-fifth of the value of the plant.
OF the rest of the city about half Of the
property was insured. Many poor pee
pie carried no insurance and lost every
thing. The only residences standing
are the Lutheran church, some dwell
ings near the southern limits, W0r-
cester town hall and a group of dwell
ing in the very heart of the bucned
district.
