tention is to hold the principal debate
in independence. Those who are anx-
ious to have Mr.. Earl meet Speaker
Henderson on the public platform are
declaring that the leader of the nation

On the other hand, when Julian W..
Richards, private secretary to the

laughed the matter to scorn and de-
clared his belief that Speaker Hender-

coNsTARLErs MISTAKE.
Arrested an Entirely Innocent Man on
4 Charue Of Brutal Murder.


a Charge Of Brutal Murder.
Fort Dodge, Sept. 2.-Harry Smith,
resident of Lehigf. near this city, was
called upon to face an awkward charge
of murder yesterday. He was arrested
by Marshal Schooncver of that place on
suspicion of being a man named Dun
ham, wanted for the. murder Of family
of five at San Jose Cal, in May, 1896.
A reward of $4,000 was offered for the
arrest of Durham.
Schoonover thought that he saw a re-
semblance between Smiths appearance
and the published descriptions OF Dun
ham, and put the handouts on his man
without waiting to verify the story.
Smith satisfactorily proved his identity
and was released after a brief contine-
ment
1t is thought that the dazzle Of the
$4,000 reward blinded the eyes of the
vigilant officer to the real facts of the
case, as Smith resembles the published
description only in a few particulars.
The murder for which Durham is
wanted was one of great brutality. A
widowed mother and four children. who
made their home adjoining Dunham's
residence, were killed. Durham disap-
peared Immediately after the murder
and suspicion has fastened itself on
him. 1t is believed that he had designs
on the property of the alleged victims.

supposed that the boy accidentally

slipped down between the ties thus
holding the body in a partially upright

that the boy was alive and would clear

70 EXPAND BUSINESS
Swift 6 Company are to Enter
Commission Trade in
This State.
To be Conducted in Connection
With Cold Storage and Meat
Business.
Fruits Will Be Handled on the
Same Lines as the Meat
Products.

Des MoineS. Sept. 2.-Swlft 4 Co.,
pork and beef packers, operating
branch in Des Moines, will engage in a
general commission business in addi-
Etion to carrying on their meat business
at this point.
This announcement came as sur
prise to the commission merchants of
Des Mones. Rumors have been going
the rounds for some days past TO the
effect that the big packers intended to
embark in the commission business,
but they had not been credited locally
until yesterday, when it was ascertain
ed that representatives of Swift d Co.
were soliciting business from local re-
tailers.
j. B. Eddington, manager for Swift &
Co. when asked yesterday as to the
truth of the reports. said: Yes, it is
true our company is going into the
commission business and that 1t will en-
gage in it at this point. We have not
been fully advised as to the lines to be
handled, but presumably we will carry
a full line of the goods generally
handled by commission houses. We
have received our first shipment today.
1t consists entirely of lemons. We are
expecting other shipments of fruits inn
mediately, and in all probability we will
also handle vegetables, canned goods.
etc. Just how extensive the line will
be I can not say. Why are we going
into this business? Why, because we
have got to keep our men busy and this
fits in with our meat business Very
nicely. We have the refrigerator cars
with which to transport fruits and the
cold storage at this and other points.
Most OF the grocers are butchers also,
and we can solicit the fruit and COM
mission business at the same time that
we are looking after our meat trade 1t
works in very nicely with our bust
ness
Mr.. Eddington said that it Is also
true that the Swifts will engage in the
buying and shipping of butter and eggs
in addition to the dressed poultry bus
mess in which it has been engaged at
this point for the last two years. 1--WE
have already commenced to buy butter
and eggs and are making some ship
sments from this point. We intend to
do big business in this line and will
have all the facilities for Gambling and
packing eggs and working butter We
intend to card the state for Shipments
of butter and eggs just as we are now
carding it for shipments of poultry to
be killed and dressed at this point"
1t was ascertained yesterday that the
Swifts, in anticipation of the building
up of a big business in the commits
sion line in addition to their dressed
meat trade at this point, are figuring
for a location where they will have
more room for handling the business
than their present quarters afford.
The Armours have also decided to
engage in the dressed poultry and but
ter and egg business at this point. but
whether or not they will add a fruit
and vegetable commission department
has not been fully determined, tho re-
cent advices from Chicago are to the
effect the company contemplates such
a step at number of the larger job
bling points in the country.

CUSHIONED HAMMER INSTALLED.
Milwaukee Shops at Dubuque Put in a
New Machine - Other Railroad

| News.
Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque, Sept. "a fine cushioned
hammer was received by the local Mil
waukee shops Friday for use in the
blacksmith department. 1t is capable
of striking 500 blows per minute, each
| blow with a hundred-poundf force. In
! ectual use, however, the hammer Will

than 500 blows; a minute. 1t will be put

a cement of the Rock Island railway TO
equip with it's system of electric lights
and fans all the cars now being con-
structed by the Pullman company to be
used in the new limited trains that go
into service on Nov. between Chicago
and the Pacific coast via its new Ell
Paso route and the Southern Pacific.
This is the same system of electric
lighting that is now in use on the
twenty -four-hour trains of the Lake
Shore. New York Central and the
Pennsylvania railroads.
The Milwaukee railroad has COM
menced laying 1O0-pound steel rails on
the line between Chicago and Milwau-
kee. The new rails have been found to
be necessary on account of the heavy
trains and the fast time which must be
made at present. The Pioneer express,
che of the most famous trains in the
world, has required the heavy rails, be-
cause the cars themselves, exclusive of
passengers. weigh fifty tons each. The
locomotives, which pull the Pioneer ex-
press frequently at the rate of eighty
five miles an hour, weigh 100 tons each,
and the combination of excessive
weight and speed requires heavier
rails. Track tanks along the line are
being eliminated, as the engines are
row constructed with tanks sufficiently
large to carry enough water for an en-
| tire trip.
