STAL WARTS MAY
HELP DEMOCRATS
Assertion That Wisconsin Fac.
ton Will Not Take Case to
the Courts
Special to The Globe


MADISON. Wis, June 80. = Wiscon-
sin Republicans are waiting for the
statement of the stalwart central COM
mittee which is now being prepared by
Theodore w. Goldin, of GAINESVILLE,
chairman of the committee, assisted by
M. G. Jeffris, of GAINESVILLE; Senator
Quarles, Of Milwaukee, and p L.
Spooner, of Madison, brother of Sena-
tor Spooner. The senator himself has
gone East and will spend the summer
on his estate in the mountains of New
Hampshire, but will be urged to return
to the state to help in the spellbinding
campaign.
The stalwart statement will be re-
ply to the recent defiance issued by
Gov. La Toilette. 1t will declare that
the La Toilette people are bolters from
the national organization, that the ma
tional committee at Chicago, also the
committee on credentials, examined
carefully into the merits of the Wis
consin contest and upon the merits de-
.cided it, instead of upon the 'pulp' of
senator SpOOllcI cil0 N>OR6i CSSiiie-Ai
Babcock, as charged by La Toilette.
A surprising statement has come
from John NJ Olin here, attorney for
the stalwarts. that no attempt may be
made in the courts to secure the recog-
milton of the stalwart ticket as the
regular Republican slate. The La Fol-
lette people say they believe this and
declare it is the determination Of the
stalwarts to hand the state over to the
Democrats. Attorney General Sturde-
want and Secretary of State Houser,
who are on the La Toilette ticket, say
they will assist the stalwarts Ia every
reasonable way to get the case iTto the
supreme court. The attorney general
declares that the stalwarts are Safraid
to stand up and be counted, and there
fore they will stand on the trust-dic-
tated decision of the Chicago conven-
tion." It is probable, however, that the
stalwarts will bring mandamus pro-
ceedings to compel the secretary of
state to place the stalwart ticket on
the official ballot as regular, and make
the La Toilette people run Independent.
While the Republican factions are
seeking opportunities to rend each 9TH
er, each declaring it will sweep the
state and humiliate the other, the Dem
ocrats are carefully considering their
ticket with assurance of success

LAUNCH EXPLODES.
TWO FATALLY HURT

tins Of Accident

The Gilmore, gasoline launch be-
longing to George Christian, exploded
on Lake Minnetonka between Tonka
bay and Gales island, about 10 o'clock
last night and of the eight people
aboard at the time, George Upton and
MIR. Christian were injured seriously
that their lives are despaired Of
A leak in the gasoline tank caused
the explosion, which blew out the en-
tire front part of the launch. All were
thrown into the water. Three sail
boats, which were in the immediate vi

aged to save all of them. In the party
We're George Christian, Mr.. and Mrs.
Harry Merriam and their two chill
dren, Harry and Prudence, Mr.. and
Mrs. George Upton and Mrs. w. P.
DevereauX.
The escape of the party was most
miraculous, as chairs on the boat were
completely blown to pieces. Mrs. Dew
ereaux sustained a broken leg, but fur
ther than that received no serious in
juries. Mrs. Merriam was badly burn
ed about the arms and body, but her
condition is not supposed to be at all
serious.
Messrs. Christian and Upton, the
two who are not expected TO 1--we, were
severely burned in the flames which
Immediately followed the explosion and
sustained internal injuries. Both were
taken to the Minnetonka Boat club
house, but physicians who attended
them had but little hope for their re-
covery. The other parties were taken
to Excelsior, and after having their
wounds dressed were permitted to go
to their homes.
The launch was consumed in flames
within a few seconds after the explo
sion and before the sail boats could
get her to shore the boat was burned
to the waters edge and nothing save
the boiler will be saved. The people in
the party were residents of Minneapo-
lis spending the summer at the lake.

ATTACKS BOOTH & co
Fish Company Is Sued Under
Anti Trust Law

COLUMBUS, Ohio, June 30.-Suit
was brought today in the circuit court
of Franklin county by Attorney Gen
eral Ellis to oust the so-called fish
trust of the great lakes, which is COM
mercially known as A. Booth & Co., of
Chicago, from its charter in Ohio. The
suit is brought under the Valentine
antitrust law
The attorney general charges that
the company has purchased the busi-
ness of it's competitors and controls 90
per cent of the fresh water fish busi-
ness carried on from the Mississippi to
Buffalo. 1t has been in operation about
four years, during which time it has
reached out into all the states border
ing on the great lakes, and into Can
ada, and taken in the business of about
sixty dealers in fresh water fish.
William Vernon Booth is represented
as having effected the combination.
The petition further states that the
corporation seeks to engage in about
forty different Kinds of business under
its charter, from making glue to be-
coming surety or. bonds for individuals.

BRITAIN AWES TURK
Porte Agrees to Let the Ar
menians Live

LONDON, June 30.-Great Britain
has successfully brought pressure TO
bear on the porte for the relief of the
prosecuted Armenians, according to
statements in letter written by For
eign Secretary Lansdowne to the An
glo-Armenian association. The letter
says that Sir Nicholas O'Conor,
British ambassador at Constantinople,
in an interview with the grand vizier.
Ferid Pasha, On June ii, pointed out
to that official the responsibility of the
porte should the reports of Kurdish
outrages prove true.
The ambassador called attention to
the design which had been accredited
to the Turkish authorities of driving
the Armenians from their mountain
homes to the plains, and urged that
orders should be sent to the vail of
Bitlis that refugees be allowed to re-
turn to their homes and be given pro-
lection from the Kurds.
The grand vizier acquiesced in the
wishes of Sir Nicholas O,Conor and
telegraphed orders to that effect in
the presence of the ambassador The
British vice consul at Bitlis was nou-
fed of the grand vizier's action and in
structed to report its effect.
Lord Lansdowne said that the porte
had also granted permission for Brit
ish officer to accompany any troops en-
gagged in expeditions against the ir-
surgentS.

the night in work on the credentials of

The convention named committee
on resolutions, of which Senator
George r. Laybourne, of ST. Louis. is
chairman. The resolutions, written by
William II. Grimshaw, of Hennepin,
after his happiest style, have been
passed on by the committee and will
be presented to the convention tomor-
row. The resolutions will include an
Endorsement of Senators Nelson and
Clapp.
The senatorial aspirations of J.. b..
Gilfillan, of Minneapolis, received
rude shock at the Hennepin county
caucus when Grimshaw declared his
preference for Clapp's reelection.
The committee on permanent organi-
cation, which will probably recommend
the retention of Senator Clapp as
chairman of the convention, is headed
by w. H. Grimshaw.
The convention will resume work
this morning, when it is expected that
the fiercest fight in the history of poll
tics in Minnesota will be settled.

Summing up the situation as it was
found at an early hour this morning,
everything points to the nomination
on the first ballot in today's convention
of Robert c. Dunn as the Republican
candidate for governor. Unable to

candidates for minor Offices the sup
porters of Loren w. Collins realize
that they are lost, and last night many
of the leaders admitted the fight to be
q hopeless one.
Ir had been hoped that the adjourn
ment of the convention until this
morning would give the Collins forces
an opportunity to make some trades,
but the developments of the afternoon
and night showed that Collins gained
nothing by the delay, and the Dunn
managers say he lost votes.

He's HadEnough of Boiling

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, June 30-Some
Western delegates to the Democratic
national convention arrived today, but
had no knowledge OF what was going
to be done when the convention meets
next week. Everything awaits the ar
rival of the leaders,
Senator Fred T. Dubois, of Idaho,
came in this evening and said he saw
nothing but Parker.
There is more than a third of the
convention he said, that will stay
here until the election before allowing
the nomination of Cleveland. An at
tempt to nominate Cleveland will
throw the convention into the hands
of Bryan. The convention will NOM
mate Parker because it has no other
man to nominate"
Senator Dubois declares that he will
get an -polygamy plank in the ma
tional platform.
Former Senator George Turner, of
Washington, came to ST. Louis today
with a small, earnest vice presidential
boom. Idaho and Washington are in
structed to vote for Mr.. Turner for
that position, and the few delegates
from that region are making a little
stir about Pacific coast man for sec
ond place.
Former Senator Frank j. Cannon, of
Utah, says that he will not bolt the
convention.

publican convention in this very town,
and 1 have grown gray since that time

last night the managers of both can

votes to control the convention, al
though it was noticeable that the Col
