EARLY MORNING ROW
John Crowley, Plasterer, in a Critical
Condition at the City and County
Hospital.


John Crowley, plasterer, 20 years of
age, living on Willow avenue in the Mis-
sion, is lying in a critical condition at the
City and County Hospital.
He attended an entertainment at the
Turn Verein Hall on Eighteenth street
Saturday night, and about o'clock yes
terdav morning went downtown with two
friends. At Fifth and Mission streets
they got mixed up in a fight with gang
of young hoodlums, and Crowley was
knocked down by blow from some in
strument. Policeman Folsom was at
tracted by the crowd and found young
Crowley unconscious on the street, with
an ugly cut across his forehead. He was
taken to the City and County Hospital.
where it was decided he was in critical
condition. He was suffering from concus-
sion of the brain and possible fracture OF
the skull.
The police arrested John Sullivan, one
of Crowley's friends, who had black eve
and his collar torn, and took him to tie
Seventeenth-street station. Two or three
friends called TO see him and he told them
that young man named John Murphy
had struck Crowley with sIungshot.
Murphy was arrested yesterday afternoon
and will be detained in the tanks at the
City Prison pending further developments.

WHY LANGENBERGER DIED
He Had to Get Work by May or
His Wife Would Leave
Him.
Choosing Death by Suicide in the
Park Rather Than Be Separated
From Her.

The body of the suicide found near the
Midwinter Fair Mining Camp on last
Thursday has been identified as that of
Albert Langenberger, the son of q wealthy
citizen of Anaheim, this State.
The father of the unfortunate man, who
held the position of resident agent
for Wells, Fargo & Co., for many
years in Anaheim, died about five
months ago and left an estate valued at
$40, 900, $500 of which Albert received i'm
mediately after bis fathers demise. About
three years ago young Langenberger
married and the result of the union was a
girl who is now two years old.
On the morning of the day of the suicide
Langenberger visited saloon on Market
street, where Otto w. Ahrendt is en-
ployed, and drank a glass of wine. He
then told the bartender that he contem-
plated suicide and exhibited bottle which
was labeled poison" Ahrendt, who
was acquainted with Langenberger and
his wife, and who had roomed for long
time with the family at 1861 Everett
street, where they resided after their mar
riage, vainly attempted to get the deadly
drug away from his friend, as he knew he
was despondent.
In speaking of the matter yesterday Mr..
Ahrendt said:
81 have known Albert Langenberger COR
few years and l was surprised at his rash
act, although l had reason to suspect he
might attempt suicide. After the death of
his father, which occurred a few months
ago, he came to me and told me that he
was going to deposit $3.50 in the German
Savings Bank, and he asked me to accom-
pany him, which 1 did. He told me at
that time that his wife was rather reckless
with money, and recited one instance of
when she had left her pocketbook and $500
on the table of q restaurant and walked
out, unconscious OF her loss. She occupied
position as cashier in Regan's restaurant
for some time past and Albert was unem-
ployed.
HE told me that he had looked for work
diligently, but could not find any, and a
few days before his death he told me that
his wife had threatened to leave him if he
did not get work before May /, and he
said he could not stand that, as he loved
her so much. / knew Albert to be an in
dustri Gus man, but he was unlucky lately
about securing work. He told me on last
Thur sday morning that he was going to
commit suicide and showed me a bottle
labeled poison l ried to get it away
from him, but did not succeed. The apron
which was found in his possession marked
with the initials 30. w. A. was mine, and
the way / account for that is that his wife
washed his and my aprons when 1 lived
with them and possibly the aprons got
mixed. | understand Mrs. Langenberger
left here yesterday with her child for her
parents nome at Los Angeles

chairman, and later the temporary or
ganiZation was made permanent:
When the nomination speeches were
declared in order Hon. William Henry
Eustis made a speech withdrawing his
name. After the nominating speeches
a roll call by counties was called for
and the first ballot showed Gov.
Clough's overwhelming majority.
When the Hennepin delegation was
called ripple of laughter swept over
the convention which broke into wild
cheers when E. M. Johnson announced
116 votes for Clough.
At Abs o'clock Gov. Clough entered
the hall. The band played Hail to the

throng, and as he stepped forward the
Hennepin delegation went wild.
Gov. CIOugh's Speech
Gentlemen of the Convention: With full
heart l come before you to return to you
my sincere thanks for the honor that you
have conferred upon me. l cannot and do
not wish to say that this nomination has
come to me unexpected or unsought. 1t
does come Instead the eliminating event
of long and ardent campaign, ia which
honorable men, men worthy of any antag-
onist, men of high character and possessed
of liberal share of the peoples confidence,
representing the Republican party in the
coming campaign, and acting as the execu-
tive of Minnesota during the next two
years. For those adversaries who have
met me in fair and honorable battle, have
only the kindliest words because they are
inspired by the kindIiest feelings. Every
man has, In my opinion the right to aspire
to become the standard bearer of his party.
But in this hour when the great contest
has been decided, 1t is time to lay aside
all the personal feelings that may have
possessed us in the struggle for nominal
ton and to remember only the future ana
the needs of the great Republican party
and of the great state of Minnesota. which
commands the undying allegiance of us all.
If / have coveted the honor, gentlemen,
and | make no secret of my desire to de-
serve your confidence and to receive this
signal proof of 1t, l may at least, in all
sincerity and honesty, say that | have not
been inspired by any unworthy motive.
l have wished, who would not wish that
the act of the people which made me gov
ernor year and a half ago, by the election
to the senate of that stalwart Republican
and patriotic son of the republic, knute
Nelson might be confirmed and ratified by
their direct choice. - have done my best
TO discharge that trust faithfully and hon.
estly I can say in all sincerity that have
desired and striven to serve the best In
terest of the state. / confess, therefore, to
a natural desire that the people in passing
a verdict upon this my term of office should
find it worthy of their approval. nave
felt that to be upheld by them, TO have
this seal of their approval upon my work
In the executive office, would present to me
