LOWELL Is "WILLING"
To accept" the Nomination on
the Republican Ticket.

To accept the Nomination on
the Republican Ticket.
The Republicans are beginning to
cast about for material to put up as a
candidate for mayor They find plenty
not available. Some is water-logged,
other is unfit for use generally, and so
OH. G. p. Lowell says he is "willing" to
accept" the nomination in case he is
not nominated for one of the Legislative
positions in the Thirtyfrst district. He
is out for some kind OF position. If he
doesn't get one he will take another
provided he gets it. Mr.. Lowell has
evidently forgotten that his campaign
two years ago terminated in what Is
known in theatrical parlance as a
frost" 1t was gigantic frost. in
fact. so gigantic that he was buried un-
der the sparkling white. His willing
ness to accept the position now comes
like joke.
Aid. Harvey is also out for the nomi
nation, and so, too, is j. T. Wyman.
If either of these gentlemen stands a
show. it is Mr.. Wyman. But he is also
after legislative honors from the Thrift
eth district. Mr.. Harvey is of the
opinion the work he did OH the street
railway teansfer ordinance should entI-
tie him to seat in the Office at present
filled by Mayor EustIs. The latter says
he does not want the nomination again.
He says he has had enough of the place,
though when asked if he would not take
the nomination if it were rendered him,
he said. somewhat demurely:

There appears TO be lack of interest

have it if he so desires. but it is likely
he will be wanted to 60 to the United

THE CONDUCTORS ADJOURN.
Body Of Harry C. Elson Found
in Calhoun--Cycle Meet
Flour City News.

The Coliseum is no more. A pile of
ashes and smoking ruins mark where
the handsome structure stood. Last
night. the mammoth building on the
university campus. the pride of the
state institution, burned to the ground.
1t caught fire shortly after 8 o'clock.
and an hour later the roof had dropped
and the walls were failing in. The loss
is III the neighborhOOd of $4,000, and
the insurance not oyer $4,000. The
fire was first discovered by young man
living across the street from the big
building. He heard a sharp explosion.
ANA moment later there came sheet of
flame and puff of smoke from the
roof, on the side toward the railroad
tracks. The alarm Was turned in and
the fire department came without ado.
BY the time the engines got to work
and streams of water were playing on
the ire, the building was lost. The
flames had everything their own way,
and there was not a single hope Of say
ing even a piece Of the framework.
The building burned like SO much
straw. The flames crcled around the
roof, caught in the lodges and soon
wrapped every foot of the wooden
space within their fiery arms.
Inc more water the hremeu
poured INFO the seething Lass of
red, the fiercer it burned. Soon the top
of the roof began to crack. and then a
huge piece from the very center dropped
into the auditorium. A series of sharp
T,~1 i
duced had the effect of regiment of
sharpshooterS firing off their rifles.
There were 1900 rounds of ammuni-
ton stored in the building belonging to
the university cadets. 1t was this small
magazine that became ignited and
caused the explosion.
There is nothing left of the building.
1t was constructed entirely of wood, and
it all went The size Of it was 200x150
feet. 1t was built about twelve years
ago by the university, the state appro-
priating $4,000 for the purpose. The
insurance is $4,000. There was SlO,-
900 worth of United States arms
and ammunition stored within the
building, and on this eX-Gov Pillsbury,
day before yesterday, placed $1,000 in
Surance. There was also a museum,
consisting of ten carloads of geological
exhibits, native woods and a school
exhibit, shipped here recently from the
worlds fair buildings in Chicago. The
exhibits were to be used for the uni
versity, and eX-GUv. Pillsbury stated
asst night that it was ali worth in the
neighborhood of $4,000.
He was of the opinion that the fire
originated from sparks from a passing
engine on the railroad tracks directly
below the grounds. The sparks, he
thinks, set fire to the grass and trees,
from which the flames communicated
themselves to the building. The grass
on the campus. covering an area OF
over block square. was burned. The
trees also caught fire and famed up to
the green leaves. Several times during
the past few weeks the students have
been called upon 10 put out fires in the
grass, and the theory that it was in the
same manner the fire of last night orig
mated is 4 plausible one.

GROUND CAVE-IN,
Disaster in Scranton Mil

Disaster in Scranton Mines
Wrecks Twenty Eight Houses.
SCRANTON, Pa, Aug. "a mine I'M
DERIVING part of the western portion of
this city caved in this afternoon for a
distance of three blocks affecting prop
erty valued at quarter of a million
dollars and causing an excitement which
almost verged on panic among the resi-
dents of the locality. The cave-in was
caused by rObbing the pillars which
supported the roof of the mine. For
some time past men have been taking
out these supports in the diamond
breaker of the Delaware, Lackawana
and Western company. With scarcely
a moments warning large section of
the roof fell carrying the upper surface
with it. The property extending from
the corner of Fellows and Eighth street
sank from one inch to four feet. Twenty
eight houses were wrecked and the ill.,
habitants are desperate from their loss
and fear OF another cavern. No one
was at work in the mines when the ac-
cident happened.

THE JUDICIAL CONVENTION
This Morning the Date of Holding
1t Will Be Fixed

1t Will BE Fixed.
The Fourth district judicial committee
will meet this morning at 10 o'clock in
the rooms of the Hennepin County
Democratic league, New York Life
building, for the purpose of setting a
date for the judicial convention. Yes
terday the members of the committee,
or rather several of them. were at sea as
to what the exact duties of the commit
tee are in the premises. 1t was stated
that the committee had the power to
not only set the date of the convention,
but to elect delegates to the same. AS
a matter of fact the present judicial
committee will have nothing to do but
fix the date and arrange for the holding
OF the convention.
the committee is an offspring of the
county convention. Its duties were to
appoint forty delegates to the judicial
convention, which was done. So far as
its appointive power is concerned the
committee died. When the county
convention is in session a new commit
tee of eighteen will be appointed, if
precedent be followed, and these eight
cen, as in 1890, will select again the
necessary delegates to the judicial con-
vention.
There is considerable speculation, of
course, as to what the slate will be
when the Democratic county conven.
ton is held. The Democrats have been
exceedingly diffident this year. They
have said nothing, but there is no doubt
but effective work has been done. Max
Robb, the well-known young attorney
in the New York Life building, an
nounced himself yesterday as candidate
for the position of county attorney. He
declares that he is in the fight to win.
and his Democratic friends are with
him. In the event he secures the NOM
iuation there is no doubt but he will
give Frank Nye close race, and stand
every show to beat him.
Mr. Robb is member of the firm of
attorneys, Robb 81 Slack. He came to
this city from Lincoln county, o., in
1888, and was admitted to the bar in
1885 He has been identified with Dem
ocratic politics ever since his arrival in
the city, though this is his first time in
the role Of candidate. 1t cannot be said
that he belongs to the fossil element,
| for his age is but thirty-three. He is o
prominent member of the Hennepiu
| Democratic league.
Frank Nye. so far as known. is the
only opposing candidate, though it re-
mains to be seen what the Populists do
| in the line Of nominations. 1t was stat
| ed yesterday that in the event Mr.. Robb
| secured the Democratic nomination the
| Populists would indOrse him. There is
| considerable opposition TO Frank Nye In
| spite of the earnest endeayor he has
made to work up record" for himself.
When the campaign opens there will be
matter concerning his Office and his
manner of conducting it forthcoming
that will not be pleasant reading for his
| lndorSerS.
There are twu Democrats mentioned
| for sheriff.. p. Swenson and Alonzo
| Phillips. Mr.. Buxton will no doubt
succeed himself as treasurer. George
Ledgerwood may be put up as auditor
| Jake Stoft as register OF deeds, and s.
X. Child, secretary of the Hennepin
Democratic league, as clerk of courts.

ter still, some excellent speeches.
G. E. McAllister officiated as chairman
and introduced the speakers. Hon. =.
b. Winston was the first to address the
meeting. He made one important state
ment, or rather admission. He stated
that he was after no Office and would
accept none, unless the Democrats of
his district should ask him 10 again rep
resent them in the lower house of the
state legislature.
David Ii. johnson made one of his
characteristic speeches in which he
roasted Mayor Eustls to a turn. In re-
ferring to national politics he could not
refrain from eulogi2ing David Hill,
whom he charac ,eriZed as great poll
tician.
A. S. Dowdall followed with red-hot
speech, in which he roasted any and all
aldermen who sold privileges or Gre
ated a real estate boom at the expense
Of the CITY," The audience evidently
knew whom the speaker referred to. for

IMPEAoHED A JUDGE.
Alabama Jurist Declared Guilty
OF Murder.

MONTGOMERY, Ala, Aug. 9.-The
supreme court of Alabama today handed
down its decision in the impeachment
case OF Judge John B. TalIey, of the
North Alabama circuit court. The
court decides that Judge Talley is guilty
of murder, and that he is ordered i'm
peached and stripped of his judicial
ermine. The case grew out of the
killing of Robert c. Ross, cashier of
the Bank Of Scottsboro at Scots
boro, Ala, several months ago.
Ross was shot by the three Shelton
brothers for the seduction of their SIS
ter. Ross was attempting to leave the
country when he was overtaken and
murdered in his tracks. At the I'M
parchment trial it was shown that
Judge Talley. who is relative of the
Shelton family, prevented the delivery
OF telegram 10 Ross, warning him that
he was being followed by the Shelton
brothers. For this act the supreme
court holds that Judge Tailey is as
guilty as those who fired on Ross, and
he must stand trial on charge of muir
der i'll the first degree.

DEPUTIES ON GUARD.
SITUATION AT OMAHA MORE
QUIET.
Packers Threaten to Close Down
Entirely if Militia Is Not
Called Out.

OMAHA, Aug. 9.-Sheriff Drexel sent
100 deputies to South Omaha at an early
hour this morning. and as a consequence
there was no trouble when the new men
went to work. The deputies broke up
the picket lines of the strikers and
escorted the wOrkmeu to the packing
houses. The strikers stood around and
booted and jeered. but did not offer any
violence. A number of the old men
returned to work under the protection
of the officers. All the houses began
killing in spite of the threat of the
managers that they would hot do any
work until the militia had been called
out. --- st.- ~, --.
Two hundred more deputy sheriffs
were added to the number of guards at
the packing houses tonight The
strikers refused to withdraw their
picket line at the approach of the Off
GERS, and while avoiding collision pay
little attention to the deputies. While
the situation is quite strained, it ap-
pears on the surface to be more quiet
than last night. The sentiment of the
packers is unanimous in the determine
ton to shut down entirely for an in
definite period. Several cases of vio-
lence occurred today, but nothing
serious.
Troops Called Out.
OMAHA, Aug. 9.-After conference
lasting ten hours between the state.
municipal and county authorities and
the packers, in which the situation
was thoroughly canvassed. the packers
refused to continue business to-
morrow without the presence OF the
state troops, and the governor issued
the necessary orders. The Omaha
guards and the Thurston rifles, who
have been under arms for several
nights, were at once started to the scene
of the disturbance. Other companies
from the interior OF the state will be
brought in tomorrow.
