LESS BY ONE-FOURTH
Yesterdays REGISTRATION AS
COMPARED WITH THE FIRST
DAY LAST SPRING
PROBABLY DUE TO WEATHER
There Seems to BE Little If Any
Party Advantage Either Way in
the Geographical Distribution of
the Light Figures-FuIl Figures
Except for the Tenth and EIev-
enth Wards.

The weather man took a hand in the
registration yesterday, and when the
totals were counted last night it was
clear that there was a positive falling
off from the first days registration of
last spring. And on the face Of the re-
turns there Is not much consolation
for either party, for in the First and
Seventh wards, normally Republican
the figures show UP very we'll, and
while in the Eighth and Ninth, normal
ly Democratic there Is nothing to dis
courage the Democrats. Taking the
city as whole, and reckoning on last
springs registration, the Democrats
have the best Of it.
There was no great effort made to
get the vote out. Both parties had ad-
vised their precinct men that nothing
could be done in the way of copying
the returns until the next registra-
ton day, and only the candidates,
and very few Of them, did anything in
the way Of organized effort.
The early morning registration is al
ways light and, although it was f1no
yesterday, 1t was no exception to the
rule. They waited until afternoon In
the idea that it would continue fine
and opportunity would be presented to
register later in the day. At o'clock
it was raining dismally, and the con-
sequence was a sharp falling off in ths
number Of names registered.
The returns for yesterday, compared
| with the first day Of registration last
| spring, are given:

BULLET IN HER HEART
JOHN STEVENSON MURDERS EVA
WOODWORTH, A WOMAN OF
THE TOWN
TRAGEDY ON NINTH STREET
Killed His Companion of an
Amour Early This Morning.
Murderer Was Promptly Arrested
He Says the Woman Tried to
Keep His Money.

John Steenerson, a young Swede, just
in from the country, shot and instant
ly killed Eva Woodwork, alias Eva
Parish, a woman Of the town, at the
latter's home 1877 East Ninth street.
shortly after IL o'clock last night.
Steenerson was locked up at the CEN
trail station on the charge of murder.
He admits having killed the woman.
The murder took place In the won-
ans room. No one about the house
knew the woman had company, nor
was there any indication of trouble un-
til the sound Of the pistol awoke other
sleeping inmates of the dwelling.
Steenerson was arrested while leaving
the house, and from him was learned
what had happened.
When those first to comprehend that
murder had been done rushed to the
woman's room, they were Mortified to
see her dead body lying across the bed.
On her clothing, over the left breast,
was a dark red spot. She had been
shot through the heart and died in
stantly
Practically the only story of the
shooting Is that told by the young
Swede who took the womans life. He
frankly admits having shot her, and
says he fully intended to do so when
he leveled the pistol at her breast. The
only excuse he gives is that the woman
had So belonging to him and refused
to return the money. Steenerson ap-
pears to be a simple minded foreigner
and seems hardly to realize the enor-
nifty Of the crime with which he is
charged. He can scarcely speak a word
of ineligible English, and while try
ing to tell of the shooting, talked in
low unconcerned tones, offering no ex-
planation himself, but merely replying
as best he could to questions asked
him. Some time after his arrest he
was questioned in his own language by
Coroner Nelson and told a more con-
nected story of the murder.
Steenerson says he met the woman
early in the evening in a downtown
saloon. He said he does not know the
locality of the saloon. After havina
three or four drinks the young man
says, the woman invited him to her
room, and he accordingly accompanied
her to the Ninth street house. They
were at the house about an hour be-
fore the shooting, according to the
young fellow, and in the meantime had
several rounds of drinks. When the
supply of liquor at the house ran out
FSteenerson says the woman asked him
for money to buy "can" of beer. Ha
says he gave her So bill with the un-
derstanding that she was to buy twen-
ty-f1ve cents worth of beer. but that
after receiving the money the woman
refused to go out after the liquid.

the return of his money, and the wom-
an refused to give it back to him. He
says he asked her several times for
the money and finally drew his revoI-
yer and pointing it at her told her he
would shoot her If she did not return
the money When the woman still re-

SOUCHON OBJECTS.
GOV. CULBERTSON'S QUARANTINE
PROCLAMATION ANSWERED
Figures Given to Show That Pres
ent Run of Yellow Fever Is
Not OF Malignant Type.

NEW ORLEANS, Oct. 1S.-President
Souchon, of the Louisiana state board
Of health, has answered Gov. Culbert-
sons proclamation regarding yellow
fever in Louisiana and Mississippi as
follows:
To His Excellency, Charles A. Culbertson,
Governor of TeXas-Sir: Sheer justice to my
state and to the sister state of Mississippi
compels me to resent the misleading state
ment of your proclamation Of Oct Il by
which you closed the state of Texas to all
communication with the states of Louisiana
and Mississippi.
In this, you state that the disease now
affecting Louisiana and Mississippi is of a
malignant type" The following figures
prove conclusively the true state Of affairs
The state of Louisiana has a fairly complete
record to Oct. 10 from the following locali-
ties: Franklin, $40 cases and 10 deaths; Will
son, 303 cases and deaths; Baton Rouge, 176
cases and deaths; Houma, 40 cases and
deaths; Clinton, 40 cases and no deaths:
Jackson, La, 10 cases and no deaths; Sin
clair. II cases and death; total, 925 cases:
"a deaths.
The figures from other localities are not
here taken into account because believed to
be incomplete and unreliable.
From an official telegram, dated Oct. Is,
1852 p. m, the total cases in Mississippi in
Guiding McHenry, are 1856 and 4S deaths (this
includes Jackson's 129 cases and 6 deaths).
The total number of cases in the two states
is 1861, and the total number OF deaths 72.
The mortality, therefore, is 4.33 per cent:
this, most surely. is not a ouarantinable dis
ease, and much less so than grippe infu-
enza, typhoid fever or scarlet fever.
Certainly it is not of a malignant and
fatal type" Very truly yours,
Edmond Souchon, NJ. D..

GEN. BACON PREPARING
FOR A BATTLE
JONES xuTprs
WASHINGTON HE THINKS THE
TROUBLE ALL OVER

Special From a Staff Correspondent
WALKER, Mimi, Oct. 1S-Every-
thing Is quiet today. Commissioner
Jones Is anticipating great results ct
tomorrow's meeting at Leech lake. The
meeting will be held at noon. The
Leech lake Indians will have some
thing important to say. Quite a SEN
satfon was created at John DahIberg's
camp at about 3 o'clock this morning.
A few shots were fired from the lake.
The twenty-five soldiers under Lieut..
Reeve got up in a hurry, and inside
or minute were ready to face the
enemy. Nothing could be seen or
heard afterwards. It is impossible to
ascertain where the shots came from.
Maj. Sullivan, of White Earth, came uD
tonight to be present at the couAcil.
He is very hopeful and thiHhs all Is
over. Gen. Bacon, however, is MAX
ing preparations fog q battle and is
still under the impression that there
will be fighting yet Marshal O'Connor
is Of the same opip4en. Twelve more
mules and three wagons arrived at l
this morning. They will be kept here
for the use OF Capt. Roach's men.
Tomorrow night a great pow-wow
will be given by the Leech Lake Press
club. 1t will be an entirely Indian af-
fair. At the council Of Leech Lake In
dians today a committee of four was
appointed to wait on bug" and ask
him to surrender without trouble or
delay. If he refuses, they will take
him by force. Citizens here and in
this vicinity are "sore." They claim
that the Indians should be punished
for this trouble. 1t has hurt business
| terribly, say they, and there will be
Il ouble this winter.
The feeling among the whites is far
from being friendly, and it would not
be surprising to see the citizens of this
town in conflict with the Indians. They
| blame Commissioner Jones for giving
the reds provisions, and say that as
| quick as he stops feeding them they
will get ugly again.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 1S.-The follow
! ing dispatch from Indian Commissions
| er Jones was received here this morn

| Walker, Mimi, Oct. 17.-Secretary Of the
| Interior: Held final council with the Indians
at Bear camp today. All but one will sur
