DANGEROUSLY WOUNDED.

Columbia. personal difficulty
between Ed Campbell, prominent
millman, doing business two miles
above Columbia, and one of his crop.
pers, man named Patterson, the lat
ter received several wounds on the
head and the hands of Ed Campbell,
and Richard, young brother of Ed,
was shot and severely if not fatally
wounded by Patterson.
The difficulty started in the black
smith shop, near the mill, between Ed
Campbell and Patterson over the
clearing of some land which the lat
ter had agreed to do but had not
done, and when he used insulting
words, Campbell struck him on the
head twice with an iron bolt, inflict-
ing ugly wounds. He Immediately
ran out of the shop, followed by
Campbell, when he threw a brick at
Campbell. This was the first intima-
ton that Richard Campbell had of
the row, which he at once started in
to quell, and succeeded in getting his
brother to go home. He at once start
ed in to pacify Patterson, who, in the
meantime, had run to a nearby. by
house and, bursting in the door, had
secured a double barreled shotgun,
loaded with No. 4 shot. Seeing
young Campbell coming toward him
he leveled the gun, although told by
Capmbell to put up his gun and stop
all foolishness When Campbell had
advanced to within about twenty
steps of him he raised the gun and
fired the whole load, penetrating the
right breast Of young Campbell,
which at such close range did fearful
damage. After being shot he ran a
distance Of over half a mile to a
neighbours house, where he was forced
to lie down. Campbell's condition at
this writing is considered very seri
GUS and but little hope is entertained
of his recovery.

Dwight J. Carpenter Confesses t
Frauds on Postofices.
HE IMPLICATES TWO OTHERS
Arrested at Red Wing Where He
Tried to Cash Money Orders
for 500 Each.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal
Red Wing, Mimi, Oct. 30.-Dwight j.
Carpenter, aged "a, a junior at the state
university, was arrested here last even
ing on a warrant sworn out by the local
postotfice authorities.
Carpenter appeared before Postmaster
Rasmussen and tried to cash two money
orders for 500 each, written in favor OF
Z. S. Gardner. His manner was not re-
assuring and the postmaster finally be-
came suspicious and telegraphed Oxford,
Wis, from which Office the orders came,
and was promptly advised they had been
stolen.
United States Deputy Marshal Sheehan
and Inspector T. R. Lance of ST. Paul ar
rived to-day and took charge of the pris-
oner.
Carpenter made full confession, impli-
eating two others who are at large but
who will no doubt be in the net in the
course of a few days. He also admitted
he had cashed two orders at La Crosse
and had others-ten in ALTO cash at
Winona, Northfeld and Eau Claire.
The prisoner is a good appearing young
man, and pleaded in vain not to be taken
to st. Paul in shackles. His parents have
a restaurant near the state university, and
he is said to have borne, heretofore, the
best of regulations. He was taken to
st. Paul this afternoon.

orders in blank and then filled them out
at figure which they thought could be
realized

NO VACANCY EXISTS
Attorney General So Rules Regard
ing Board Of Regents.
1T WILL HAVE BUT 12 MEMBERS
The Act Creating Gov. PiIIsbury Re.
gent Did Not Permanently
Enlarge the Board.

There Is no vacancy on the board Of
regents of the state university and John
S. Pillsbury will have no successor on
that body.
Attorney General Douglas settled the
point in an opinion written to-day, at the
request of Governor Van SAINT. He holds
that hereafter, unless the legislature in
creases the number, there will be only
twelve regents though the act making
Governor Pillsbury a life member in
creased the number to thirteen.
After quoting the statute the attorney
general states:
The general purpose of the legislature was
to honor Mr.. Pillsbury by making him a life
member of this board. instead of passing a
separate enactment to accomplish this pur-
pose the legislature amended the then exist
ing law creating the board, and thereby made
Mr.. Pillsbury an honorary member having
the same powers as other members, and Incl
dentally changed the total number to thirteen.
The second paragraph provides specifically
for the appointment of nine other members
not specially designated in the act. If the act
is construed as continuing the total number
OF thirteen members after the death of Mr..
Pillsbury, the provision referred to authoriz-
ing the appointment of nine members for q
specific term of necessity must be construed
as authorizing the appointment of ten mem
bers, one of whom shall serve for another
and different term than provided by the
act in question. The clause in the act quoted
to wit: Whenever vacancy therein occurs
for any cause the same shall be filled for the
unexpired term in the same Manner can
have no reference whatever, in my judgment,
to the term of Mr.. Pillsbury, which the legis-
lature provided should continue during his
good pleasure. If this clause ns given any
effect whatever, it must be deemed as having
reference to the power of the legislature
which is supreme in the premiss.
| beg therefore to add that in my judg-
ment, you are not authorized to appoint such
successor, and that hereafter the board Of
regents must be deemed to be composed or
twelve members. Yours respectfully
w. B. Douglas, Attorney General.

AN EMPHATIC AVOWAL
Capt. Lemly Receives Several Other
Impressive Answers.
NEWSPAPER MEN ARE PRAISED
And, Anyhow, the Spanish Ships at
Santiago Didn't Get
+. ss..rr Away
A.@aAzFi

Washington, Oct. SO.-With the opening.
OF the Schley court to-day Admiral Schley
began his fifth day of testimony and the
third day Of his crOss-examination. The
prospect then was that he would continue
on the stand throughout.the day. Judge
Advocate Lemly still had long list Of
questions before him and the different
members OF the court have been indus
triously preparing questions to be pre-
sented to the admiral for his consldera-
tion when his examination by counsel is
concluded. The testimony began to-day
where it i off yesterday. taking up diff
ferent phases Of the blockade of San
tiago and passing from that question into
the reconnaissance of May 81, when the
Spanish cruiser Cristobal Colon was bonn
barded. The battle Of July was left
for the last subject to. be considered.
Referring to the reconnaissance of May
81. when the Spanish ship Colon was
bombarded as it lay in the harbor at San
tiago, Captain Lemly asked Admiral
Schley when he first received notice that
the oommander-in-chief would be at San
tiago. Witness replied that the notice
had come in a dispatch brought by Cap
tain Cotton dated May %. This telegram,
he said, was not received until May 81.
Possibly too the New Orleans might have
brought information Of the coming of Ad-
miral Sampson.
why did you wait two days after the
discovery of the presence Of the feet in
the harbor before undertaking your rec
onnaissance?"
For tie reason / used those two days
for the coaling the vessels Of the fleet,
SO as to be prepared in case the enemy
should come out"
Good Word for Correspondent.
Relating the occurrences of the bonn
bardment he said he recalled that Captain
HlgginsOn had asked if he (Schley) went
aboard the Massachusetts, that the bonn
bardment be postponed until after dinner,
that he warned some people to get off the
turrets, and that Lieutenant Commander
Potts had given notice that they were on
the range. He did not recall, he said, the
signal not to go in closer, but it was pos |
sible that such signal had been sent and
it had not been recorded. 1t might be
with this as with other signals which had
not been recorded, because the writing of
them was always deferred until the next
day.

New York, Oct. SO.-The Journal says,
under date of Washington, Oct 20: The
near future of President Roosevelt's ad-
ministration is likely to be signalized by
a severe lesson to Turkey and perhaps
Bulgaria. A demonstration in the Med
iterranean is expected and may be pre-
cipitated at any moment by the death Of
Miss Stone or any act of barbarity COM
mitted against her or the missionary and
American citizens for whom Turkey and
Bulgaria are responsible.
The officials are looking more deeply
into the case than that of the mere safety
of Miss Stone. 1t is known that diplomatic
movements Of worldwide Importance are
pending. The local diplomats say this is
not the time to discuss the movements of
this government.
There have been secret conferences be-
tween the president and state department
officials, which affect not only the United
States, Turkey and Bulgaria, but the
treaty powers which virtually control the
passage of hostile squadron into Turkish
waters.

Chicago, Oct. 3O.-William f. Curtis, in

agement of the case of Miss Ellen NJ.
Stone become known in the United States.
President Roosevelt some weeks ago
sent characteristic message to Prince
Ferdinand of Bulgaria, warning him that
the American people and the civilized
world would hold him responsible for
Miss Stones safety. similar dispatch
should be sent Immediately. to Consul
General Dickinson ordering him to cease
talking and to act.
Mr.. Dickinson's policy is disapproved by
the entire diplomatic corps at Sofia and
by everybody who understands Bulgarian
politics and is interested in Miss Stones
welfare. The Bulgarian government is
powerless and determined to avoid re-
sponsibility. The bandits dare not make
overtures for fear of compromising the
Macedonian committe.
Consul General Dickinson refused to
send messenger to Miss Stone, and even
declined to send her letter of sympathy
and encouragement by the messenger dis
patched to negotiate with the bandits by
M. Bakhetief, Russian diplomatic agent
at Sofia. He refused to spend money to
secure information or open communica-
tion with the kidnappers, and daily re-
sumed his useless debate with the Bull
garian prime minister.
The consul general asserted that he
acted under instructions from Spencer
Eddy, secretary of the United States lega-
tion at Constantinople. Mr.. Dickinson
quarrelled with NJ Bakhmeitef, the Rus
sian diplomatic agent, and rejected the
advice of the experienced ministers Of
England, Germany and Austria, who urged
postponement of the diplomatic contro-
versy until Miss Stone had been rescued.
Mr.. Dickinson should have been or
dered to proceed Immediately to Bansko
or Samakov with instructions to open
communication with the bandits at any
cost. If objection was made to the pay
ment of ransom he should have offered
a reward of $10,000 thus. enabling the
bandits to surrender Miss Stone without
compromising the Macedonian committee
or the Bulgarian government. Stung by
the criticism his course aroused, Mr..
Dickinson left yesterday for Samakoy.
