Newspaper Men No Longer AI- lowed to Talk With
 Newell [. Rathbun
CORONER DETECTS POISON
Rathbun's Trial VIII Not Begin Soon, as He Is Entitled to One Con. tInuance, and the State
 Wants Delay.

ueffersonville. Ind, November 15-It is probable that the public will hear nothing soon directly from Newell c. Rathbun for two reasons. A lawyer. whose ser vices he has secured since his arraign- ment yesterday. has enJoined him not to talk. and Judge Marsh of the Clark County Circuit Court has directed no one shall see the prisoner except upon an or der of the court. Newspaper men are barred. Sheriff Rave says Rafhbun was questioned by his lawyer today, and held e his last story, admitting everything ex- cept that he gave poison to Goodman.
 It Is unlikely that either side will be ready to proceed at once with Rathbun's trial. though a special grand jury will consider his case Monday. He is entitled to continuance for one term of court. and 1t is said the state may want moro time to gather evidence. It Is said that even If Goodman was given poison there will be great difficulty in determining the fact by an autopsy since the corpse was embalmed week ago.
 Says He Detected Poison.
 Deputy Coroner Coots claims that in taking gas from Goodmans stomach with a fluid used for that purpose, he detected the drug. bottle filled with the fluid pumped in and out of the stomach has been preserved. and will be analysed if the county will bear the expense.
 Chief of Police Gunter of Louisville is receiving letters from all parts of the country relative to the identity of Good man, who is supposed to be the man Rathbun Is charged with poisoning. Many who have a missing relative seem to find in the description of the dead man a re- semblance to their absent one.
 Mrs Augusta Goodman of 1517 Thirty fifth street Chicago. Is one of the in- quirers but her claims are disposed of by the fact that her husband, who dis appeared about twenty years ago, would be 50 years of age if living. The Good man In this case was a young man. Claims He ls Her Son. Little Rock, November 15.-The most in- teresting development here today fin con- nection with the Rathbun case is the re- ceipt of a letter by Chief of Police Mo- Mahon from a woman in Peru. Ind. claiming the body that still lies here in a vault at Oakland cemetery as her son. The chief will not at this time give out this letter or the name of his core spondent, but says that she sent him the description sent out by him of the corpse, which she had clipped from some paper, asserting that it must be the body of her son, man who has not up to this time been mentioned in connec- ton with the case. The chief has his theories about the woman matter and de- clares that everybody Is on the wrong scent.

Covered

The officers at Fort Smelling have been
troubled for some time with the priso2e S
who are under sentence there. Yes-er-
day another escape and a desert-on We're
added to the list of their troubles. Private
John Moran, of Company A, Eighth in
fantry, was on duty at the guard house.
AT noon it was discovered that he was
missing. further investigation re-
vealed the fact that one of the prisoners
was also among the missing. The pr
oner is Wilbur E. Elvins, who deserted
from Fort Crook, Neb., and was serving
a sentence of eighteen months for that
desertion. He has one year yet to
serve
AS it was some time after the men
had left the fort before their absence was
discovered, the officers have no idea Of
the direction In which they have gone. A
search was instituted, but no trace Of
the fugitives could be found, The gov
eminent offers reward of $50 for the
capture of any deserter from the army
and this reward will aid in their cap
ture.

LEAVING FOR FRISCO
TO THE BIG CONVEN-
TION
OVER NORTHWESTERN ROAD
Parties to Leave Twin Cities To-
morrow and Wednesday,
Return Over North
ern Pacific.

Epworth leaguers to the number Of
sixty will leave the city tomorrow over
the North estern to attend the national
convention at San Francisco. The party
is in charge of Prof. Rond, Of the pub
lie schools The party will make one
or two stops while en- route to the Golden
Gate. 1t is planned to stop at Colorado
Springs and Salt Lake City. They will
reach San Francisco Thursday
The second party which will leave the
state for the convention will leave Min
neapolis tomorrow night over the North
ern Pacific, under the charge Of Bishop
Joyce. Fully 100 people will be in this
party. They will go direct to Tacoma
and will spend few days in the north
coast cities, spending Sunday in Port
land, where Bishop Joyce will preach.
They will resume their journey to San
Francisco on Monday and will reach
there in time for, the grand concert,
which will be given in the pavilion
A third party will leave Wednesday
over the North-W with Carl F.
Miller, chairman of tie Minnesota trans
portation committee. There will be
about 100 people in this party. They
will go by the southern route, and from
Denver they will have a special car
They will reach San Francisco on Tues
day. They will return by the Northern
Pacific route, when the party viii have
an opportunity to visit Portland, Spo-
kane and the Yellowstone Park.
1t is expected that there will be a
large crowd at San Francisco during
the convention. Two years ago, when
the convention was being held in Indian
apolis. there were over $4,000 people in
attendance. 1t is not thought that The
crowd at San Francisco will >be quite
that large, owing to the location of the
city, yet large crowd will be present
The meetings of the league are so
largely attended that no city has a con-
vention hall large enough to accommo-
date the crowd. The plan that has been
carried out at the last two or three con-
Ventions is to hold two or more stimuli
taneous meetings in different places,
and thus the vast crowds will be ac-
commodated.
Minneapolis is going to try to land the
convention for 1903. An invitation for
the convention to meet in Minneapolis
Will be extended by Bishop Joyce. the
resident bishop and the international
president of the Epworth league. 1t is
understood that great many of those
who are connected with the league favor
Minneapolis as the place of the next
meeting. Detroit, Cincinnati, Omaha
and other cities are also candidates for
the 1908 meeting, but the supporters OF
Minneapolis feel that she ought to win
out.

Mrs Margaret H. Meyers, the woman
who was arrested last Wednesday night
on the charge of stealing a number Of
articles from the International hotel,
was yesterday committed to the hospital
for the insane at Rochester. The eX-
animation of the woman, who is pos

inherited great wealth, took place in the
probate court before Court Commits
sioner GalIick, Friday afternoon, the
case being postponed, in order to find
out something concerning her ante
cedents. In response to queries of the
court, the woman at first stated that
she was married and resided in Mime
apolis. Afterwards she declared that she
was a. widow Of means, and subsequently
she announced herself as a grass widow.
From private sources it was ascer-
tanned that she had been living with a
disreputable party in Minneapolis, and

CITY TEARS IT DOWN
OWNERS OF OLD COLD STORAGE
WOULD NOT PROCEED.

Work on the destruction of the old cold
storage building at the foot of Eagle
street was commenced yesterday morn
ing by City Engineer Claussen and will
be pushed to completion as fast as pos
sible.
1t was hoped that the owners of the
building would give the desired promise
to rae it, but up to last evening no such
concession had been received by the en-
gineering department. Because of the
dangerous condition of the walls it will
take fully two weeks to make the affair
safe and by that time a nice bill Of
damages will have accumulated.
Charges of powder were proposed for
quick work, but as the flying debris
might endanger people living in the near
locality, it's removal, brick by brick, was
decided upon instead. Tne walls are
now being surrounded by scaffolding.
The building will be wrecked down to
the second story. la 1s

On account of being named after our

with ST. Paul people, and 1t will be of in

repaired. reprinted and refitted especially
for the through trade.

NEW LAW is DRASTIC
SURPRISE IN STORD FOR CON-
TRACTORS AND Builders.

The new building ordinances which
some months ago passed the two bodies
of the council are now being rewritten
and indexed and VIII be ready for the
printer in a few weeks.
The new acts go into effect Sept. l,
and according to those who have read
them, will prove a revelation to builders
generally. Compared with the old or
dinances. the new laws are in a measure
drastic and in the case of business
blocks and apartment houses will add
greatly to the cost.
Where skyscrapers and apartment
houses are contemplated, protection to
life and limb in the way of fireproofing
and escapes are vigorously demanded,
while other reformers are as specifically
provided for.
