M. Jerome and party of friends
we're out for a drive in the vicinity
of Sioux River Sunday, and came to
grief. Nose is getting pretty tleshy
since he became an alderman and the
burden was more than the vehicle
could stand, and one of the wheels
became tired and gave out. Nose
says, however, that he stuck to old
principles, remained republican and
pulled home in spite of the demo-
cratic wheel.
The ball game last Sunday at Bay
field resulted in victory for the
local team but it was one OF those
games in which there was honor for
both teams. It was without an ex-
ception the best exhibition of the
national game that has been played
in this region since the days of the
professionals. The score ! to 0 tells
the tale Of the playing to anyone who
knows anything about the game.

Taking a Long Walk.

From Chicago to the Klondike is
not such a long ways in the days Of
modern travel, when Dawson CITY
can be reached in less than two
weeks, but to make the distance on
foot is something OF a task, and has
been undertaken by a freak vic
passed through Hayward last week.
The Republican tells of the visite I
in the following manner:
Robert M. Wilson, former editor
and publisher of the Durand,
Illinois, Clipper, passed through
Hayward last Saturday afternoon
on his way to Cape Lesburne, Al,
aska. He left Chicago August 1st,
at II o'clock, and is under contract
with s'The Oaks" a magazine Of
that city to walk from there to
Cape Lesburne and back by Novem.
Der lst, 1904. He is walking on a
schedule, and is required to receive
the postmark and signature of the
postmaster of every town through
which he passes in a book carried
for that purpose. He is young
man twenty-eight years old and has
wife and one child liz Nora, Illinois.
From here he goes to Duluth, thence
across western Canada to Cape
Nome, and expects, health per-
m .t.sag, to bsin Dawson City for
dinner Christmas. We wish Brother
Wilson success on his lon g journey.

THE KILLING OF SWENS0N
An Entirely New Theory OF the Altar
Homicide.

Los Angeles, Cal, June 20.-The re-
ported murder OK Anthony Swensen by
Newton Brown at Altar, Mexico, in the
state of Sonora, may result in an in
ternational incident. John H. Foley,
the attorney acting in behalf of Mrs.
Swensen, will tomorrow make formal
request to Senor Andrade, Mexican
consul at Los Angeles, for an official
investigation by the Mexican govern
ment of the alleged killing of her hus-
band. II this request does not result
in the producing of definite informc-
ton within a reasonable time it is pro-
posed to make 4 formal demand on See
retary of State Hay for action by The
United States government.
Swensen and Brown were business
partners in a copper mine at Altar.
sixty miles in the interior Cf Sonora
state. Seven weeks ago Brown WAS
lost track of, and early in the month
Swensen left for Altar to investigate.
Soon after sSwensen's arrival at No
gales word was telegraphed 10 Los An
geles that he had been murdered by
Brown. 1t is believed here, however,
that Brown himself was murdered
weeks ago. that his Daurderer then mas
queraded as Brown and killed Swensen
upon the latter's arrival in Sonora.
Attorney Foley received a telegram
from Altar stating that it was reported
there that Brown had killed Swensen.
The telegram stated that Brown is be-
ing held for the crime and that some
time ago Brown had sold the copper
mine in Question.

charges that the company has been
operated mere with regard for the ex-
plotting of the company's name in the
stock market than for a practical
utilization of the companys work; that
from its organization the company's
management was dominated by Gen
eral Samuel Thomas. whose principal
occupation. McNeal says, was that of
promoter of the company's exploiting
OF stocks. McNeal further charges that
since the spring of 1891 the company
was dominated by President c.. b
Hayes, whose associates, he alleged,
were financiers and exploiters in stocks.
II is averred that the plant at Buff
falo was operated at a loss of s40O 600,
and the plants of West Superior,
Bridgeport. South Pittsburg and New
port were di9mantled and rendered use
less. and that all these plants were ac-
quired at expensive prices. 1t is also
charged that for the purpose OF eX-
plotting the stock statements to the
public were published showing nearly

By EngIand'S Withdrawal
From Belgrade
WHY THE ASSNAIION
II Was Not Intended TO Kill Queen
Draga Because Her Death Was Not
Necessary - An Abide Camp ct
Fault.

Belgrade. Servia, June 20.-FOreign
Minister NJ. Keiievics. in an interview
today expressed intense indigna ton at
the announcement from London that
the British minister had been instruct
ed TO withdraw from Belgrade on the
arrival of King Peter. The minister
said it was inexplicable why the Brit
ish government intended 10 make the
provisional Servian ministry response
bic for the deplOrable events of the
night OF June 10. The members of the
present cabinet, he added, really dis
played great patriotism in coming 10
the aid of their country in the sad
crisis. Minister Kelievics statement
was made carefully for publication.
and may be regarded as an official ex-
preston of the view of the government.
The minister said: 1T is with deep
Indignation that we find in a recent
telegram from London an indication
that it is intended to make the present
government responsible for the deplor-
able events which occurred on the san
culinary night of June 1G 1t is known
that the events of that night carried
out by Servian officers. who had re-
solved to prevent the probable procla-
nation of the brother of Queen Ora ga
as successor TO the throne. The fact
that that woman was among those who
perished in the SIT uggle provoked by
The attack of an aide de camp upon
the officers is regrettable, more SO, as
her death was by no means necessary
even though she had been deserted by
the whole Servian PEOPLE from the mo-
ment she presumed to place the crown
upon an unworthy head.
The upheavai OF June II was the
work of a large number of officers. The
consequences OF the rcvolution.- how
ever. was sanctioned by the whole
army and the whole people.
with regard TO the members of the
provisional government who were call
"a upon to take the reins of govern
ment in the absence OF all other auth
Gritty. they only proved their patriot
ism and personal courage By accepting
so delicate mission as that which the
people unanimously and with gratitude
solemnly confided TO them 1t is for
gotten that the men composing the
present government were drawn from
AL parties and were hitherto engaged
in bitter political GtTife."
Only devotion 10 their country could
unite them at this critical moment.
Proof of the fact that they rendered
good service to their country is found
in the peace and order prevailing
throughout the land. We have. there
fore. goo1 reason TO regret the fact
that an attempt is now being made BY
England as the result of erroneous in
formation. to cast suspicion on state
of affairs which has for its object the
maintenance OF order and the eventual
regeneration of Young nation which
has passed through a time of trial and
which is attached to the cause of lib
