NARWHAL'S CAPTAIN SUED.
Is Charged With Kidnapping an
Alaskan Station Keeper.

Benjamin Roza Of Shooting Sta.
ton, Alaska, has come down to San
Francisco from the frozen north to
make trouble for II. P. Smith, skip
per of the whaler Narwhal. Smith
incurred Roza's wrath two years
ago, and how intense it must have
been may be judged from the fact
that it lived so long in the inhos-
pitable climate of Alaska.
1t appears that Smith and his
Narwhal called at Shooting Station
one morning in July, 1892. The
skipper was in very angry mood
because his steersman had desert
ed him, and a vessel without a
steersman in the icy Alaskan Sea
is in decidedly perilous position.
Smith thought that his fugitive
helmsman was at the station, which
is owned by Roza, and he made his
belief known to the proprietor.
Roza replied that Smith was one
in whom truth does not love to
dwell, or words to that effect. The
skipper was ,nettled by the reply
and again declared that his man
was hiding at the station.
81 tell you he is not here" said
Roza. "He is at the next sta
tion."
They wrangled for a few mo-
ments and then Roza says Smith
compelled him to 60 on board the
Narwhal and proceed to the next
station, several leagues distant.
He says that Smith, in spite of
applications, prayers and threats,
placed handouts on his wrists and
thrust him into a small room in
the hold of the vessel. He was
obliged to remain handcuffed and
without food or drink for fifteen
hours. When the Narwhal reached
the next station the runaway
steersman was found and Roza
was released.
Roza lost no time in securing
the service of lawyer, to whom
he made his grievance known. The
result Of their conference was a
suit for $4,000 damages filed in
the United States District Court
against Smith and his vessel.

DENVER, Col, Sept. 12.-The dele

ton were late in assembling today, and
il was nearly noon before Irving Hal
bert, chairman of the state central COM
mittee, called the convention to order.
There were present 953 dele
gates, few of whom were
women taking part In their first
state convention under the new equal
suffrage law. Senators Wolcott and
Teller addressed the convention until
the committee on credentials and rules
was ready to report. The committee on
credentials made its report, and the
temporary organization was made per-
manent. Nominations being in order,
the following were made: Judge su-
preme court, John Campbell, of Colorado
Springs; governor, A. w. Mcintyre, of
Alamosa: lieutenant governor. Jud
Brush, of Greeley; secretary of state,
A. b. McTaffney, of Denver; state
treasurer, Harry l.. Mullnix, of Trini-

vention took an informal ballot. which
resulted: Smallwood 80. Taylor IS,
kittel Halvorsen 6a. There was con-
sternatlon pictured on the faces of
the st. Louis county delegates when
the result was announced. Judge
McGindley had withdrawn his name
from the race, but of Halvorsen's
candidacy nothing was known until
told by the informal ballot. On the
formal ballot the vote stood Halvorsen
63, Smallwood As. and Halvorsen's nom-
it went down hard. The opposition to
Smaliwood was due to the fact that he
is lawyer, and the sincerity of his be-
lief IN the party platform was Ques-
toned by majority of the delegates.
After the conventions adjournment the
meeting of the st. Louis county dele.
gates with these from the western part
of the district caused cold chills. to run

Edward Maybury was nominated. He
was the Republican candidate two years

point by having his paper, The Repre-

WAsECA, Sept. 12.-The First district
Democrats met here today and noni-
mated Hon. John Moonan, the we'll
known attorney, for congress. There
was large attendance of delegates, the
best possible feeling prevailing. While
three candidates were entered in the
| race, the contest vas purely friendly
one, aud the nomination of Mr.. Moonan
will he backed by a united party. AS
shown by the resolutions, the Demo-
Gratis of Southern Minnesota are firm in
the faith, and propose to continue the
fight. The convention was called to
order by Chairman W. S. Belden, of the
old congressional committee, and w. H.
Hill, of st. Charles, was chosen tenn
porary chairman. II. II. Roe, of Dodge,
and c. j. O'Brien, of Steele, were made
secretaries, and the following commit
tees were appointed:

made permanent, and the report of the
committee OIL credentials was presented
and accepted. Senator Craig,of Waseca,
from the committee on resolutions, read
the report prepared by that committee,
which was adopted without amend
ment. The platform is short and to
point, and yet covers the ground thor
oughly. 1t follows:-
The Platform Adopted.
We, the Democrats of the First Con-
gressional District of Minnesota. in con-
vention assembled, ,most heartily indorse

land as eminently wise, brave and
Statesmanlike.

ciples of the national Democratic plat
form of 1892, and indorse the Democratic

The nomination of candidate came
next, and these names were placed be-
fore the convention: John Moonan, of

The advocates of the latter came prn-
clpally from the counties of Freeborn,

PARTISAN M'CARDY.
ALLOWED PAY TO ARBUCKLE,
REFUSES THE DEMOCRAT.
Comptroller Suddenly Finds the
Charter Does Not Provide for
Police Jailor.

Judicial Joseph j. McCardy, the city
comptroller. has made another one of
those discoveries hlcn operate to keep
city employees out of their pay. This
time the victim is Matthew Bantz. the
jailor at the central police station. The
Bell charter, it seems, does not provide
for the office of jailOr, and so far the
comptroller is right. But, singularly
enough. it has taken him over two
years to detect this omission in the
charter, and during those two years F.
NJ. Arbuckle. the Republican jailor
under the Wright administration, drew
his pay regularly and without protest
from Mr.. McCardy.
1t has always been the practice for
the common council to elect jailor and
market master once year, as directed
by the former charter. This the coun-
ell continued to do under the Bell char
ter, though the latter contains no pro-
vision for a jailor. The last council
first elected Arbuckle jailor in June.
1892. In June, 1898. the council repeat
ed the performance, but McCardy said
never word, because he had not scru-
tiniZed the Bell charter sharply enough,
perhaps. But as soon as the Democrats
came in. and the present jailor, BantZ,
was chosen, Mr.. McCardy carefully
adjusted his gold-rimmed specs and
searched the charter from beginning to
end, hoping to find some clause
or omission that would throw
Democrat out of his Job.
When he discovered that there was no
such otflce as jailor, the legal-minded
comptroller felt rewarded, though it
must have mortified his professional
pride to learn that. after thumbing the
Bell charter for two years, he had lived
all that time in blissful ignorance of
this omission-that is, presumably ig-
nOrant.
1t is probable, however, that Jailor
Bantz will receive his back pay, and
that he will retain his employment un-
der the title of patrolman assigned to
discharge the duties of jailor.

TERRE HAUTE, Ind, Sept. IA big
crowd OF people cheered Justify today
when one worlds record was broken
and then another, in race. and finally
yelled itself hoarse when sweet little
Alix tied the worlds trotting record
made by Nancy Hanks over this track
two years ago. The first record to be
smashed was done by Carbonate, the
two-year-Old PAGER bred by Dubois Bros,
of Colorado. 1t was all ideal racing day,
damp southeast wind taking the life
out of the track. but even at that it was
fast, as shown by the miles agone. The
gray colt wentaway with runner, 60

mile we'll within himself at 2:0S% clip.
The fourth heat of the 2:16 trGt, won by
Expressive, was sensational, the stout
three.year-old filly lowering her mark
three-Quarters of second ana placing
to her crediLthe fastest fourth heat ever
gone by one of her age. The 2:l7 pace
furnished surprise in the fifth heat,
Tommy Brown and Gazette making a
dead heat of it. Under the rule
these two horses alone will contend
tomorrow for the deciding heat. The
wonderful performance of Alix in
equaling the worlds record made over
tn is track TWO years ago by Nancy
Hanks surprised everybody. 1t was
believed the conditions were unfavor-
able for record-breaklng effort. The
mare got away we'll. the runner Fer
dinand setting the pace. Around the
turn she SHE'D where some dirt from
the scrapers had inadvertently been
left on the track, and Mcdowell says
she lost fully second. She was at the
quarter in 80 seconds. The second quar-
ter (the uphilD was done in 80 4 seconds.
In the fast third quarter her speed was
terrific, the little mare coming like
whirlwind and tieing Nancy Hanks
record for the same quarter. She did
the fourth quarter IN 81 seconds with
out sign of distress. MIR. Salisbury is
confident he can capture the worlds
record over this track, and will start
Alix again Thursday. Robert j goes
tomorrow to beat his record of 2:021s,
and Joe Patchen will start Friday to
beat the stallion record.
