ACTION DEFERRED.
The State Board of Pardons viii Investi-
gate tho Kelly Case.

Special Dispatch to the Standard
Helena, July 6.-Tbe state board OF
pardons to-day decided to defer action
upon the pardon of Edward Kelly.
against which the authorities of Yel-
lowstone county filed protest, as
stated in to-day's Standard. until more
definite information could be had. The
board will take the matter up again
July 20.
In the meantime an effort will be
made to procure a transcript of the
evidence brought out at Kelly's trial,
as well as clearer information respect
ing the confession of Convict Tracy of
the Ogden penitentiary, who claimed to
have committed the crime for which
Kelly is being punished. From the
manner in which the members of the
board discussed the case to-day it
looks rather black for Kelly's getting
out before he serves his time. The
affidaVits telling of his having served
time in the county Jail of Custer coun-
ty, and Of his having been run out OF
two towns for being too handy with a.
knife, rather prejudiced his case with
the board.

ROBERT BONNER DEAD.
Death Was Due to a General Breaking
Down of the System.

New York, July 6.-Robert Bonner,
publisher of the New York Ledger and
owner of famous horses, died at his
home in this city at 7:40 tonight Mr..
Bonner had been ill for some months,
yet was able to be about until 10 days
ago. Death was due to a general
breaking down of the system. There
were with him when he died Robert
Edward Bonner and Francis Bonner,
his sons; Mr.. and Mrs. Herbert Bonner
son and daughterin-law and Mr.. and
Mrs. Francis Ford, daughter and SON
in-law.
Mr.. Bonner enjoyed remarkable
health until year ago, when his life
long friend Rev. Dr. John Hall, died. A
second shock to him was the death Of
his son, Andrew Allen Bonner, on Dec.
27, last. After this Mr.. Bonner's tenn
permanent changed completely. He
made fewer trips to his magnificent
farm near Tarrytown and contented
himself with a short drive daily.
week ago Tuesday he took his last
drive. On his return his case was SO
serious that several doctors were call
ed in for consultation with his family
physician, Mr.. Muln. He became much
worse on the following day and since
then took no nourshment He lost con-
sCiousness early this morning and re-
manned in that condition to the end.

lie WAS IN HELENA.
w. F. Rhoda Was Looking for a Business
Opening.

Special Dispatch to the Standard
Helena, July 6.-It was learned to-
day that w. F. Rhoda, the Wisconsin
man travelling through the country on
a bicycle, and who lost his life in such
a shocking manner July 3, near Chest
nut, Gallatin county, by being killed
by a trap gun. spent a day in Helena
while returning east on his bike. He
called on number of citizens and
said that he was seeking an opening
in some line of business in Montana.
The amount of money found on his
person and the standing of his Sparta,
Wis, connections bears out the story.
Attorney General Nolan, when asked
by the Standard reporter if there was
any law on the statutes of Montana
making it crime to set trap guns
like that fixed by Adams. the owner
of the cabin into which Rhoda was try
ing to effect an entrance when killed,
said he did not think there was He
admitted that the legislation of that
character which was common in other
states would not be out of place in
Montana.

wind sank to about five knots an hour
and Immediately the sails of the CO.
lumbia filled and she began to gain on
her adversary. Both shippers were
now straining for the mastery. Both
pinched until their heads trembled.
They stroye for the weather guage.
The Columbia continued to gain on
every tack and few minutes before
the first mark was reached, she cross
ed the Defenders bow on the star
board tack. Then the nautical sharps
breathed easier. She rounded the stake
exactly one minute ahead of the De-
fender. AS she eased her sheets and
turned the mark all the steam craft
signaled their congratula tions. Both
yachts had slowed their jibs and
had sent up their big jib topsails as
they approached the stake. but the
Defender, although the last around.
broke out her big jibs fully minute
then they had to be taken down and
reset. On the long reach for the sec
ond mark with the wind abeam, the
Columbia gained IS seconds.
About half way down a black squall
which had been threatening broke
sharply and completely swallowed up
the big yachts and their trains. 1t was
now only question of how much the
Columbia would beat the Defender and
many of the steamers and tugs were
headed back for the finish. When the
rain fall ceased the wind hauled to
the west and instead of running home
before the wind with spinnakers set,
the yachts made the last leg with the
wind on the port bow. This was a
grave disappointment to the spectators
The wind gradually died down and
when the yachts We're within about a
fourth of mile of the finish the fleet
gathered about the lightship and Com
modore Morgan's flag ship. Gracefully
and noiselessly the Columbia swept
over the invisible line, and as she
crossed she received a royal salute
Columbia made no response to this
thunderous demonstration. AS the De-
fender crossed the line she also was
greeted with a demonstration quite as
enthusiastic and prolonged.
The yachts were Immediately taken
in tow by their tugs and brought up
the bay.
Herbert Leeds. on behalf of Mr.. Ise-
lin, said after the race that the friends
of the Columbia were very well salts
fled and hoped to do better when their
sails were made more trim. He said
there were no accidents of any kind
and the yachts would leave for New
Rochelle Tomorrow
Mr.. Duncan said he had nothing to
say for the Defender. Everything had
been satisfactory.
The race to-day was an informal
trial for a cup offered by the New York
Yacht club. The official trials will oc-
cur in September.

Fire.

Chicago, July ga catastrophe was
narrowly averted among 500 people, Of
whom $50 We're women, employed in the
factory of the Illinois Can company,
which was burned to-day. The build
ing was of six stories. The flames
broke out in the third story. Those in
the lower stories escaped, but those
on the floors above were cut off and
crowded to the windows, many pre-
pairing to jump. The fire escapes were
overcrowded, but the police kept the
hundred or so who came down this
way from panic. The ladders were
quickly run up to the fourth floor, and
firemen kept the frenzied prisoners in
order. Three hundred clambered down
through the smoke without accident.
Loss. $130000: insurance, $125,OOO.
A few minutes after the building was
cleared, terrific explosion took place,
but the thick walls withstood the
shock.
