easy to see that Judge Torrance holds the
or Stewart withdraW-and there has been
talk of it-Torrance would easily win.
Should the voting last for three ballots or
longer, he would win. While the contest
is close and Torrance is carrying the
handicap of getting late into the race, his
friends are hopeful and insist that his
chances are improving each day. The
strength he is developing is high trib-
ute to his standing as Grand Army man
and his candidacy has assumed a dignity
and Importance that will be gratifying to
every member of the organization in Min
nesota. Should he fail to win this year,
the prize will surely be his in 1902. This
is everywhere conceded: I think to-day
that he has an even chance for victory.
Complications may arise, however, to up
set present calculations.
Trying to Sidetrack siclxles.
There was stormy meeting of the
New York delegation last night. Sickles'
opponents in that state have caused him
lot of trouble and are trying to force
him off the track. The Stewart mana
gers are encouraging this factional dis
turbance, which Sickles knows. His
friends in the other departments are filled
with resentment and there is possibili
ty of considerable feeling showing itself
in the encampment. Sickles and Stewart
cannot possibly unite and both are friend
ly to Torrance, who appears to be the sec
ond choice OF practically all the dele
gates. 1t is unfortunate that he did not
announce his candidacy six months ago.
This would have prevented Sickles and
Stewart from securing large part of their
present pledged support. The atmosDhera
Is expected to be somewhat clearer nv
tomorrow morning.
The Rawlins Post people, aided by Gov
ernor Van SAINT have worked like beay-
ers and are able to-day to make some very
satisfactory calculations based upon the
situation as it now stands. These CAL
culations,~ however. are likely to become
valueless, as the situation changes from
hour TO hour. These changes may or
may not help Torrance. Nobody can fore
cast them. Thus far they have helped
him and for all that is now known thew
may continue to do so. It is anybody's
fight as 1t now stands. Each candidate
has enough support to Justify him in being
hopeful ard In putting forth his best ef-
forts.
See1ey Is a Candidate.
At the meeting which John A. Rawlins
post held with the ex-Prisoners of War
it was unanimously decided to bring I. q
Seeley. the commander of the post. out as
a candidate for the Office of president Of
the ex-Prisoners of War National asso-
citation. There were present at the re-
ceptton. In addition to members of the
post, about $50 gentlemen who will have
votes in the convention and all declared
themselves favorable to the candidacy of
Mr.. Seeley. who in fact was brought into
the race without any action whatever on
his own part.

toward the Indictment of Sheriff P. T. Me-
garden. The matters which the mayors
officer wishes to disclose involve alleged
overcharges on the part of the sheriff for
various services rendered and submitted
in the bills which he presents monthly to
the commissioners. The sheriff's bills
were always allowed without question un-
til the beginning, of the present year
when the attention of Assistant County
Attorney c. L. Smith was called to yari-
Gus charges said to be unauthorized
Various items In the bills were disal-
lowed, and it was thought at the time that
the question was of small Importance.
Later investigations, however, brought to
light other alleged overcharges, and these
were tabulated and submitted to the board
OF county commissioners at their last
meeting. The board Immediately de-
manded a settlement from the sheriff and
deducted over $400 from his bill, an
amount large enough to cover the over
charges since Jan. 1. A resolution was
also passed authorizing Mr.. Smith to pro-
ceed with an investigation covering the
records back through Mr.. Megaarden's s
first term, and through that of his demo-
cratic predecessor, Alonzo Phillips. A

said to have reached the mayor, hence the
request for hearing submitted by In
spector Nelson.
Inspector Nelson has been selected as
the instrument through which the wheels
are to be set in motion for the undoinp of
Sheriff Megaarden, and though various dis
interested parties, it is said, have endeav-
ored to dissuade the mayor from urging
the matter, he persists and the Jury viii
have to dispose of the subject one way or
the other.
The jury has not yet reached the point
where 1t feels that it has time to inves-
tigate matters of this character and is dis
posing Of routine business as rapidly az
possible. About thirty cases were on the
calendar, and of that numDer over two
thirds are already out of the way, giving
reason to believe that the jury's work will
be completed tomorrow, and then the

METHUEN WHIPS BOERS
DE LAREY FORCED TO GIVE WAY
Great Change Expected When Kttch-
ener's Proclamation Takes Eff
feet Next Sunday.

London, Sept. 11.-Lord Kitchener re-
ports to the war Office from Pretoria as
follows:
Methuen engaged Vautender and DeLarey
in Great Maries valley, Sept. and 8, driving
them from strong position Sept. 8. The
Beers left six dead Sept. and twelve Sept
8. Forty-one prisoners were CAPTURED.
With the approach of mid-September,
sanguine Britons believe Lord Kitchener
and the government have a plan in mind
other than Mr.. Dooleys simple recipe of
declaring the Boer war Off" 1t is still
expected that there will be a great change
in the situation on Sept. Is, when Lord
Kitcheners proclamation goes into effect,
the only ground for such belief being that
the government would not be so fatuous
as to issue a proclamation without a def
mite scheme. The conservative papers
speak of the likelihood of guerrilla war
force throughout the coming South African
summer, and the war Office has issued in
structions that recruits must "enlist for
one year, or longer If the war lasts

was laid open carefully and some anti
septic gauze inserted The results were
entirely satisfactory and the presidents
condition this morning shows the benefits
Of what was done. He Is cheerful and con-
1dent. In fact he is doing so well that
shall not be surprised il we let him have
a cigar before long. AS to just when he
can be moved that is not being considered,
for the reason that he is much better of
here than he would be in Washington.
There the weather is ihtolerable in Sep
tember, but here 1t Is cool and bracing,
which will count much in the stages Of
convalescence. One Of the most depress-
ing heat periods l ever experienced was
in Washington in September. So, all
things considered, 1 think it will lend
much to the presidents recovery to remain
where he is, at least until October"
Relation of the Wounds.
DR.. Mann was asked as to the relation
of the outer incision to the inner wounds
of the stomach.
''They are quite separate" said he. 1.-The
wounds of the stomach are those made by
the bullet, while the outer incision was
that required by the surgical operation
Immediately after the shooting. AS to the
wounds of the stomach they were closed
during the operation and now sufficient
time has elapsed to permit the sutures to
heal by natural process. That this is
progressing nicely Is evident from the re-
storation Of the normal digestive pro-
cesses. Until last night we had not per-
mitted food to enter the stomach by way
of the mouth; but the administration Of
beef Juice has proved so satisfactory that
we have doubled the amount and will add
the white of eggs. He is receiving as
much as three and four teaspoonfuls OF
beef juice an hour, and this will be grad
ually increased
No Need to Extract the Bullet.
DR.. Mann was asked if the treatment Of
the wounds will in any way affect the
course to be pursued as to extracting the
bullet.
'.Not at ALL" he replied. There is no
need of extracting the bullet. l have
known a man who carried a bullet in the
muscles of his heart. In this case the
bullet is encysted by this time and it is
not feature Of the case to give further
concern"

SCHLEY COURT
Admiral's Counsel to Adopt
Defense Tactics Open
ing To-day.
Special to The Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Washington. Sept. 11.-At I o'clock to-
morrow afternoon the court of inquiry
will meet to begin the investigation Of
the charge that Admiral Schley acted in a
cowardly and disobedient manner during
the West Indian naval campaign The
court, headed by Admiral Dewey, will as
semble at the Gunshop building in the
navy yard. Admiral Schley, who is ia the
city, will be there, and it is expected that
the hall will be packed with dis
tinguished assembly Of witnesses and
spectators.
The admiral and his attorneys were as
sembled to-day in their headquarters at
the Shoreham for final conference. At
torneys Wilson and Raynor have gone
over the evidence and believe they are
provided for any contingency. They ex-
press themselves as ready and confident.
There is no formal method of procedure
in court of inquiry. There are no
pleadings, opening addresses, or division
into prosecution and defense. The whole
affair is in the hands of the Judge advo-
cate general. The precept will be read
at the opening of the court and then wit
nesses will be summoned in any order
which may be dictated by the Judge advo-
cate
Counsel for Schley will adopt defensive
tactics. At the beinning they will have
nothing to do but let the department go
ahead summoning witnesses and bringing
out evidence bearing on points mentioned
in the precept 1t will be only when evi-
dence is apparently distorted or unfavor-
able that the lawyers will insist on cross
examination. They will permit the de-
partment to exhaust it's list of witnesses
before summoning theirs.
On the question whether Admiral Samp-
sons health will permit him to be pres
ent and take the stand Schley's attorneys
have received no official information. Their
unofficial information leads them to believe
he will not, and they regret this very
much. 1t is expected that the court will
get down to business at once.

The president himself showed many
signs of improvement. He was so CHEEKY
that one of the doctors remarked that
they would let him smoke cigar before
long. He had shown not the slightest
depression from the dressing Of the
wound last night.
Confidence Akin to Certainty.
The situation was SO bright that all of
those about the president and the many
who came to inquire as to the president g
condition were cheered with confidence
dent is now on the high road to recov-
cry. There continued to be talk Of his
early removal to Washington, although
the doctors were not willing to place any
such movement within two or three weeks,
and some Of them held that the climate
progress than that of the national cap
ital.
Mrs. Mckinley saw the president this
morning When the doctors arrived at the
house this morning for the consultation
they passed her sitting in the upper cor
ridor of the residence, at work on her
knitting. She was in good spirits and
after the visit of the doctors they gave
their assent to her entering the sick room
again. She remained only a minute, as
the physicians are avoiding any sapping
Of the presidents strength by prolonged
visits even by those nearest to him.
Could BE Moved To-day.
DR.. McBurney said he had not decided
just when he would return home. IF I
remain over tonight it will be solely be-
cause of my intense interest in the case .

A JERSEY JUDGE
He Says Anarchist Meeting Places
Are Unlawful,

<AEC ChA&N WAuAs

New York, 1.-THE disrepute into
which New jersey has fallen, particular
as to Paterson, Newark and other points
noted for treating leniently the leaders of
anarchist groups, some of whom have
been closely identified with recent foreign
adventures, If not openly with the attack
upon President Mckinley, has apparently
had the effect to move the people of that
state to urge severe actions against the
anarchists. Communities in which the
anarchists are most conspicuous are daily
emphasizing their condemnation of these
teachings and acts and calling for a more
radical treatment of all who openly par
ticipate in such meetings. In a charge to
the grand jury at Newark Judge Dunno
felt called upon to say:
Since the murderous assault upon the presi-
dent, one of the members of that group has
said that the name of William Mckinley has
been under consideration by them. If a con-
spiracy formed in this state, having for its
object the murder of any one in another state
or country, so far executed in our state as
that parties in complicity leave the state
for the purpose Of carrying it into effect, be
not idictable under our laws, the law on
that subject ought promptly to be changed
by the most drastic legislation. There are
undoubtedly anarchists in this city. and not
a few of them.
1 am Informed that the anarchists are
accustomed to congregate in certain saloons
for the purpose of conference and to advocate
their peculiar doctrines. saloon or place
in which such illegal practices are tolerated
to such an extent as to be in a legal sense
habitual, Is unlawful and the keeper of the
saloon or place is amenable to Indictment
for keeping a disorderly house. The course
of procedure in this city indicates that there
is law in existence, if put in force, to pre-
vent the public dissemination of these pernici-
GUS doctrines.

But the doctors did not confine
themselves to the brief official
bulletin. They were ready to
discuss the case frankly and
fully in all its bearings. This
gave body of authoritative
information on the circumstan-
tial details of the presidents
condition, all showing most
highly satisfactory condition. AS
to the reopening Of the abdom-
inal incision, this was dismissed
as part Of the treatment neces-
sary to the progress of such
wounds.
AS to the inner wounds, where
the bullet penetrated the walls of
the stomach, there was the most
gratifying progress, as the stom-
ach was now carrying on normal
digestive processes. The beef
juice which was fed by the
mouth for the first sime last
night had been assimilated with
out the slightest indications that
the wounds in the stomach re-
tarded the processes of nature.

BY COURT-MARTIAL
Mr.. COudert on the Exclusion of
Anarchists.

New York, Sept. LII am not sure but
what it might be possible to try Czolgosz
by court martial says Frederick R. Cou-
dert, the well-known New York lawyer,
last night. He went on:
l am sure that something should be done
to protect the president. Such an attack
was made on him ought to be impossible.
The matter of anarchists in America will re-
ceive the attention Of the public, now that
this has happened, and they will no longer
go about threatening law and order. We can
exclude alien anarchists from America by
passage of laws. If they are citizens, it is
another matter. In most states there is law
enough to prevent men and women from
making speeches that excite men to riot and
to attacks upon the government. When the
president has recovered, we can formulate
some definite plan for the regulation of an
archists. There ought to be laws passed to
prevent the president from shaking hands
with people in the a public manner, and
thereby risking his life.
