In MINNEAPOLIS
Their State Convention An
nounced for International
Auditorium Aug. 80.

The democratic state convention
will be held in Minneapolis on Aug.
80. The place for the convention will
be the International Auditorium. A
special dispatch to T h e J urn a
from Winona says that Chairman
Buck Of the state central committee
made the announcement today. The
location Of the convention was left to
the executive committee, and this COM
mittee has decided the matter by cor
respondence.
st. Paul was not able to offer a
suitable hall. Minneapolis democrats
offered to furnish the auditorium and
pay 500 Of the convention expenses,
and this determined the action of the
committee. Duluth was a bidder for
the convention. but as the June con-
vention was held there, the claims of
Minneapolis were recognized. The of
fetal call for the convention will be
issued this week. The basis Of rep
resentation will be the same as for
the Duluth conventions one delegate
for each $50 votes or major fraction
thereof cast for VIM. j. Bryan in 1900,
with three delegates at large for each
county except Hennepin and Ramsey.

TAGGART CHOSEN
TO run CAMPAIGN
Democratic National Committee
Selects Officers
Declines Again.

New York, July 26.-Thomas Tag
CART Of Indianapolis was unanimous
ly elected chairman Of the democratic
national committee today. All efforts
to induce Senator German to take the
place failed.
Urey .Woodson of Kentucky was
elected secretary Of the committee.
John I. Martin of Missouri was elected
sergeant alarms and Samuel Donel-
SON Of Tennessee assistant sergeant
alarms.
A motion was made for the selec-
ton of two vice chairmen, one to
have charge Of the eastern headquar-
tiers and the other the western head
quarters. William F. Sheehan, who
was present as a proxy, moved to
leave the whole matter to the execu-
of the national committee, with power
to increase the number Of the execu-
tive committee and to select special
committees for different sections Of
the country, in the judgment Of the
executive committee, if such action
was necessary. This prevailed, and it
will allow the formation of a special
camp eommittee or finance COM
mittee lin New York, or any organi-
zatipn;s that thes executive. committee
may consider necessary.
The committee decided to go to
Esopus to visit Judge Parker tomor-
row.
No conclusion was reached regard
ing the appointment of an executive
committee bl1t 1t is expected the COM
mittee will be named after consulta-
ton with Judge Parker. The execu-
tive committee may be members OF
the national committee or others, in
the discretion Of the chairman.
The selection of treasurer was left
to the executive committee. August
Belmont is said to be the probable
selection.

New York Sun Special Service. ~
Niu-chuang, July 26.-Sunday morn
ing the Russians resumed their at
tack on the Japanese position on the
heights to the east Of Ta-tche-kiao.
The fire of several Russian batteries
checked for some hours the advance
from Taping-shan of the Japanese left
flank, which, after a fierce fight, cap
tured Nang-hu-df-tuen village, two
miles southeast of TAPPING shan. The
Russians were compelled to retire to
Tien-ghuai-tuen, six miles from their
base. -s.- .
At this point they were strength
ened by reinforcements. They re-
opened a fire from two batteries and
maintained their position till
o'clock in the afternoon, when the
Japanese right flank made a sudden
appearance on the hills southeast of
Ta-tche-kiao, and, by tremendous
fire forced the Russians to beat a hur-
ried retreat at o'clock in the eve
ming.
The firing line Of the Japanese ex-
tended over a front Of fifteen miles.
After two hours Of an lncessant storm
of shot and shell they swept the last
hill and plain clear Of Russians. Only
then did the firing stop.
After fourteen hours of desperate
fighting, which must have been at
tended with heavy losses on both
sides, the position Of the Russians al
Ta-tche-kiao was rendered untenable
and they were compelled to retreat
toward Hai-cheng.

MADDENED NEGRO
TERRORIzES A CITY
Armed With a Banana Knife He
Runs Amuck in Streets Of
Des Moines.
Special to The Journal.

Special 70 Inc journal
Des Moines, Iowa, July 26.-Daniel
Shears, a negro, ran amuck at the
street car waitingroom in this city
this afternoon. Selling a banana
knife, the crazed man made dive for
Cecil Hogan, a soldier, slashing him
in the face. Another soldier struck
Shears upon the head with a brick,
but the Infatuated negro was not
phased.
Shears galloped madly thru Walnut
street, the retail shopping center,
slashing at men and women. Albert
Cotter, a draper, had his coat cut
from the neck to the waist.
A mob of 500 was held at bay by
the negro, who ran into the Harris
Emery department store and held his
ground uponithe balcony Women ran
from the store in terror at the bloody
knife. Several tainted.
Three policemen made for Shears,
but he escaped and ran down Walnut
street to Fifth, where he made a
lunge at a horse. The horse jumped
and the negro struck the street, his
knife breaking upon the pavement.
Before the maddened man had fin
ished his course, 1000 persons were in
panic. Policeman Frace has his hand
badly cut by grabbing for the knife.
Shears couples a cell at the police
station. He insists that someone made
disparaging remark concerning his
colored sweetheart, causing his mind
to waiver. $50

FEMALE FRAUD GETS
$50 OF MRS. ROOSEVELT

Pittsburg, July 26.-An attempt to
swindle Mrs. Roosevelt, wife Of the
president, out Of $50 is being 1nvesti-
gated by the Pittsburg charity depart
ment. The young woman who tried
to secure the money on the ground
that she needed it to pay for sur
gical operation on a child, will not be
prosecuted, as that is not Mrs. Roose-
velts wish.
Because Of the responsibility Of the
young woman's family, her name is
withheld from the public. She wrote
two letters to Mrs. Roosevelt, enlisting
sympathy and financial aid, and the
Jr., asked the charity department to
Investigate. Mrs. Roosevelt has been
notified that the applicant for charity
is unworthy.

RIOT RICE WAX, .SLUGGZVG,
MARK .GREAT lMEAT STRIKE
A BLOODY MURDER
DONE IN THE DARK
Body Of John Bowen Is Found
Near the State Fair
grounds.

rs a i a 3 {.
James Phillips, who worked on the
same farm with Bowen, was arrested
at ST. Paul this afternoon and must
prove that he knows nothing Of the
latter's murder before he is released.
The two men went to st. Paul yester-
day, being unable to work on account
of the rain, and were seen quarreling
late in the afternoon.
Firmly clutching pocket knife
with which he had attempted to ward
off the murderous attacks Of his as
sailants, a man was found lying dead
in a pool of blood at Mckinley and
Hamline avenues, st. Paul, at 6
o'clock this morning. He is supposed
to be John Bowen, employed by Matt
Williams, a farmer near the state fair
grounds.
Three knife wounds in his breast
showed how he had met his death.
A penny lying near the body seemed
to show that the unfortunate man had
been murdered for. his money.
John Dietz, a carpenter, residing
on his way to work this morning,
came upon the body. He at
once notified the police and Coroner
A. w. Miller was summoned. So
mysterious did he find the case that
he ordered the body removed to the
county morgue and arranged for an
inquest.
The dead man was found lying on
his back, with his right hand under
meath the body, and grasping a pock-
etknife, one blade of which was open.
His hat lay near at hand, while ten
feet away from the body was found
his pipe. Near this the ground was
torn UP as tho terrible struggle had
occurred.
At first it looked as tho the man
might have committed suicide, but
closer investigation showed that such
| was not the case. The knife, which
he held was evidently not the one that
made the wounds as there was no
blood on the blade. In addition there
was no trace Of blood on the dead
mans hands.
The fatal wounds, three in num-
Der, were all in the breast. One was
just below the right nipple while an.
| other was just an inch below. The
third wound was in the right breast
near the floating ribs. All Of the
stabs were made thru the vest.
Further than that the dead mans
/ name was John Bowen, nothing Is
! known Of him. The identification was
made by means Of an employment
ment agent, directing him to the farm
ilsofs Matt Williams, near the state fail
/ grounds, where he was to work in the
;lhayfield at $1.50 a day He was abou1
I 40 years old, five feet eight inches ii
and weighed about Ito pounds. His
hair was black, slightly mixed with
gray. The employment office from
which the card was issued Is at Ii
First street S, but: inquiry there fails
to reveal anything regarding the man

lions. Where he spent the evening
is unknown, but as the body was
found only a few rods from Come
park, tits thought that he must have
4 been there and that he was murdered
while on his way home or was en-
ticed to the fatal spot by some
| chance acquaintance.
