ANYTHING BUT HARMONY.
Factions in Ohio Republican Convention
Are Getting Ready for the Fighs.

Are Getting Ready for the Fight.
ZANEsvILLE, O., May 27.-The Re-
publicans are Assem- bling here today for
their state convention which convenes
tomorrow. Efforts were previously made
IN the county conventions to overcome
former factional differences by unani-
mously endorsing Governor Mckinley
for president and ex-Gov. Foraker for
senator, but in the bitter contest
in the nomination for governor between
A. s. Bushell, George K. Nash, James H.
Hoyt E. W. Poe, J. Warren Keifer, a. L.
Harris and others the factional lines are
being drawn.
Ex-Secretary Charles Foster, who was
Chairman of the Republican state con-
vention last year, and Senator John
Sherman, who is to be chairman of the
convention tomorrow are here with
other party leaders, both working in
the interest of harmony, but today the
contending factions are contesting the
divisions of tickets for admission to the
hall, and watching for every possible ad-
vantage in the organization of the con-
'vention.
1t is thought there will be no opposi-
ton to the endorsement of Mckinley for
president. as such action would involve
opposition to the resolution endorsing
Foraker for senator and means fighting
on everything

NEW BICYCLE ORDINANCE
Will Come Before the City Council For
Passage Tonight.

Will Come Before the City Council For
Passage Tonight.
The almost forgotten bicycle ordinance
has again been resurected and it will be
introduced at the meeting tonight 1t is
Councilman Stevens ordinance, which
nee passed the council, but was
reconsidered and sent to the license COM
mittee. 1t has been changed so that its
author will hardly recognize it.
Councilman Stephenson, who is chair
man of the committee. says
since the supreme court has de-
cided that bicycles are vehicles
they should be governed by the same
rules which govern other vehicles His
idea is to amend section Sc of the revised
ordinance which applies to the driving Of
vehicles and make it apply to bicy :
cles. This would make the rate of
speed in the city not more than six miles
an hour.
The provision of the ordinance allow
ing bicyclists to use the sidewalks has
been stricken out

Obedience to Law can be Compelled by
the Army Says the Court.
WASHINGTON, May 27.-The opinion
of the court in reference to government
interference says
"If there were no other way to enforce
the freedom of interstate commerce and
the transportation of the mails than
by prosecution and punishment
for interference Herewith, the
whole interests of the nation
in these respects would be at the abso-
Lutte mercy of a portion of the inhabi-
tants of single state.
"But there is no such impotency
in the national government The
entire strength of the nation may be
used to enforce in any part of the land
the full and free exercise of all national
powers and the security of all rights en-
trusted by the constitution to its care.
"The strong arm of the national gov
ernment may be put forth to brush away
all distractions to the freedom of
interstate commerce or the transporta-
ton of the mails. If the emergency
arises the army of the nation and all it's
militia are at the service of the nation to
compel obedience to the laws"

thing of u Hit.
Special to the Globe.
FARGO, N. D., July 80. = After
resting for a day the Kent case
started in fresh, and every one felt
good after resting from the intense
heat of the past week. Thomas Swe-
dinskey was again put on the stand
this morning, and Attorney Hildreth
for the defense crosS-questioned him
about his actions on the night of
the murder, and finally confronted
him with a question as to his ac-
tions towards Mrs. Kent on the night
of the murder. This stunned the wit
ness, but evidently was a clincher
and the defense will make a. strong
plea on the supposition that he aIt-z
tempted assault, and, failing, shot
her dead. John P. Hoy, the famous
Minneapolis detective, was on the
stand this afternoon, and his testi-
mony was interesting, and brought
in some strong points for the prose
cution. He related how he had been
employed on the case by the city
of Minneapolis, and he narrated
carefully his experience with Kent.
He told how Kent had tried to get
him to go ITO Mandan and get the
people interested in him, and how
Kent wanted him to get hold of the
famous little book and destroy it,

CALL FOR A GRAND JURY
JUDGE MARSHALL ORDERS AN
INVESTIGATION OF CITY
AND COUNTY.
Result of the Charges Against
Him Leads the Court to Take
Action.

WEST SUPERIOR, Wis, July 20.
Judge Marshall, of the circuit
court of the Eleventh judicial dis
trict of Wisconsin, has called a grand
jury to sit at Superior Aug. 19 to
investigate all irregularities in the
city of Superior and county Offices in
the past six years. The order is un-
derstood to be the result of the in
vestigation of Mayor Starkweather,
of Superior, and it has caused con-
siderable CONSERVATION among Of
fice-holderS. This is the first grand
jury ever convened in this district.
For the past four or five years Of
fetal corruption in city affairs has
been charged on all sides. The in
vestigation of Mayor Starkweather,
who is accused of receiving money
from the gamblers and saloonmen,
has been going on for the past two
weeks. The council has been divided
in the affair, part of them upholding
the mayor. Many witnesses have
been examined before the committee,
and some very sensational testimony
has been introduced. Charges and
counter-charges have been made,
and the people finally demanded that
a thorough investigation be made.

Picnic for Breeds.

PEMBINA, Mimi, July 29.-The clos
ing scene in a series of farces is now
being enacted in this section in the
Turtle Mountain Indian cases. Fif-
teen breed prisoners are under SEN
tence to pay fines. None of the fines
will be paid. These prisoners were
sent away from Ramsey county Jail,
with plenty of cells, to Rolette county,
where the court knows there is no Jail
and only one cage. The Indians sleep
in the town hall, are well fed and roam
the streets at pleasure. One of the
prisoners was selling berries on the
streets Saturday. They are having a
grand picnic at the public's expense.
This is the outcome of all the hue and
cry of last winter and spring, the up
rising of the breeds, the marching to
and fro Of United States marshals and
the expenditure of tens of thousands
of dollars.

MISS CIGRAND,s SKELETON.
Young ChappeII Declares His
Father to Be Insane,

CHICAGO, July 29.-The police Sc
cured today a skeleton which they be-
leve to be that of one of the alleged
victims of Holmes. NJ. G. ChappelI,
who claimed to have articulated sew
eral skeletons for Holmes, took two
detectives to the home of a West side
physician, where the complete skeleton
was found. Chappell says that he got
the bones from Holmes, and from the
dates and other evidence, Inspector
Fitzpatrick announced that he be-
lieved the skeleton to be that of Miss
Cigrand. 1t had been sold to the
Hahnemann Medical college by
Holmes, the police claim. Today's
find, with the trunk discovery of yes
terday, makes two of the three skele-
tons which Chappell claims to have ar
ticulated for Holmes, and the police
are in hopes of finding the third very
shortly. Charles Chappell, son of M.
G. Chappell, says that his father is
insane. Young. Chappell declares that
the old man has been of unsound mind
for several years, and expresses the
belief that his father knows nothing
whatever of Holmes doings.

cution conclude to indict Holmes for
the murder of PietZel, in Philadelphia,
they will produce witness who, it is
said, heard the conversation between
Holmes and Pietzel on. that eventful
evening, when the latter threatened to
do away with his life. 1t has also been
learned that the state has another wit
ness who was on the train on which
Holmes and his wife travelled to
Chicago. This witness, it is under
stood, can testify that Holmes sat in
an apparent stupor on his way to the
West; that he had a novel before him
for an hour, and was seemingly SO
much dazed that during that time he
never turned a page.
