NAY HAVE BEEN SUICIDE
Doubt as to What Caused the Death
Of Marshal O'Connell.

Denver. Clio. August 6.-M- w OCon-
nell, former marshal of Victor county.
came to his death tonight by falling
from four story window in the rear
OF the Markham hotel There is doubt
as to whether OConnell met with an
accident. committed suicide or was
murdered. The police hold to the sui
eide theory. but the friends OF OCon-
nell declare that the marshal was mur-
dered. There was no evidence OF n
struggle.
OConnell was marshal of Victor at
the time OF the Victor riot June s. and
swore in number OF union men to
help him to preserve the peace. For
this reason he was removed from office
by the mayor OF Victor and later was
charged with participant In the riot.
He was only yesterday released on ST.

Chicago, ILL.,, August 6.-The stock
yards strikers forgot their animosities
and troubles today long enough to join
in a peaceable demonstration, th- first
since the strike was called, nearly four
weeks ago. In a street parade several
miles in length, fully %, 900 strikers and
their families encircled the stock yards
dozen bands. The denonstrati ton end
ed with a picnic at Oswald's Grove,
where addresses wa-e made by promi-
nent labor leaders. While these events
We're in progress there was peace and
quiet around the big packing plants at
the stock yards.
Even the question of extending the
strike by involving the teamsters was
held in allegiance. The committee of
the allied trades unions which was ap-
pointed to take up the question of or
dering out the truck and coal teamsters
met early in the day, but adjourned on
account of the merry-making. The
question of cutting off the ice supply
at the yards will also wait until Mon
day.
While the strikers were at their sport
the packers kept up their work of kill
ing and shipping. The usual number OF
non-union men were received at the
different plants and put to work. Coun-
try butchers were numerous among the
days arrivals, and in a statement is
sued by the packers tonight it is as
serted that a few more days like today
will put them in such a position that
it will not be necessary to add to the
forces of butchering and casing de1art-
ments.
The run on the Drovers Trust and
Savings Bank came TO an end today.
Several small depositors withd-ew their
money from the bank in the morning.
but by noon the run was over. The
police are now endeavorlng to discover

Chairman Taggart does not expect to
be called upon to interfere or settle he
dispute between the factions in this
city, led by Charles F. Murphy on one
side and Patrick H. McCarren on the
other. 1t is not the intention of ne
McCarren faction to bring the matter

the present time there is no intimation
that the Murphy faction will ask Nh
Taggart to take a hand in the matter
Mr.. McCarren was at Mr.. Taggart's
rooms during the day. but nationa
committeeman and the general condi-
tiOn of New York were not discussed.
Senator Taliaferro. of Florida. called

today and told him that the three cleo

seDted to accept the Democratic nom1
UatiOn for governor and that mis- nomi
nation would make the success of the
entire DemOc cratic ticket certain. 1t i!
stid that Mr.. Taggart was assured
further that the followers of former

action of the national Republican con
