Mr.. BRADFORD wITHDRAWs.

Hon Ira B. Bradford, who was looked
upon as the leading candidate for the
republican nomination for governor be-
fore Mr.. La Toilette entered the lace,
announces his withdrawal from the
contest. Mr.. Bradford telegraphed the
Milwaukee Sentinel:
AUGUSTA, Wis, July 2. Conditions
have come to my knowledgesunder which
in justice TO my friends whose Efforts Ia
my behalf fully appreciate, ! cannot
longer remain candidate for the gov
ernorship, and | therefore withdraw.
Mr. Bradford was undoubtedly con-
scious that he had no possible show of
success. There is no doubt that La Fol-
lette win now carry ev9ry county of the
Seventh Congressional district, in which
Mr. Bradford lives. General Rogers is
inclined to the idea that Mr.. Bradford
has been seized with Stage fright.

ately in front of him and Mt his feet Its
traces were but slight. In another por-

slight discoloring was found on the neck

house and were awakened by the crash.
On descending to the lower floor they
