ROOT WILL NOT RUN
Former War Secretary Declines
to Head New York Ticket


NEW YORK, July 2S.-A letter from
former Secretary Of War Elihu Root to
Gov. B. B. Odell, in which Mr.. Root
stated that he could not be considered
candidate for governor and could
not accept the place, was read today
at conference here of Republican
state leaders. There was a general
discussion but no conclusion was
reached and no one present seemed to
be the choice of the majority SEN
ator T. C. Platt was present at the
meeting for portion of the time.
se- While. Gov. Odell refused to give out
the text of Mr.. Roots letter, it is
known that the latter said he was not
a candidate for the Office of governor
and could not accept if nominated.
Among those discussed for guber-
material honors were Lieut.. Gov. Fran
els w. Higgins, Erastus o. Knight,
former mayor of Buffalo; former Lieut..
Gov Timothy L. Woodruff, State Sen
ator George R. Maltby, of Ogdensburg,
and Gen. Arson G. McCook. The latter

years has not been prominently iden-
titled with politics, although a delegate
to national conventions.

rectors and stockholders of the COM

dueers' association, are the sponsors
of the new movement for peace. Mr..
Wallace and Mr.. Ames came to Chica-
go today and Immediately went into
conference with the strike leaders.
Mr.. Donnelly and his associates were
told by Mr. Wallace of the hardship
the strike was imposing on the live
stock raisers, and they were asked if
some concession besides those offered
at the last conference between the
packers and the strike leaders could not
be suggested in order to bring the pres
ent conflict to an end. Mr.. Donnelly,
who was made spokesman for the labor
leaders, said he would welcome an
other conference with the employers
and consented to the effort being made.
He also informed Mr.. Wallace that the
strikers were willing now to concede
the time limit in which the men should
be reinstated. AS at the last confer
ence with the packers Mr.. Donnel1y
had insisted that the men be REIN
stated within a specified time, which
the packers refused to agree to do.
Mr.. Wallace said tonight that he and
Mr.. Ames would call on the packers
representatives tomorrow and endeavor
to bring about the desired conference.
Both Claim Victory
Tonight both sides to the dispute at
the stock yards were claiming a vic
tory. According to the. packers all the
plants in Chicago are running at nearly
the regular capacity. On the other
hand, the labor leaders declare the
packing industry in this city is COM
pletely demoralized and that business is
almost at standstill. That the state
ments of the labor leaders is not alto
gether true is evidenced by the fact
that the packers are slaughtering thou
sands of animals every twenty-four
hours. There were several desertions
from the ranks of the strikers today,

Won PLEHV[ KILLED
BY ASSASS|N'S BOMB
Russia's Real Head Murdered
in Crowded Street by
Young Finn

= ---s-
ST PETERSBURG, July 2S.-M.
Won Plehve, minister of the interior,
was assassinateds at $50 o'clock this
morning by a bomb thrown at his car
riage while he was driving to the Bal
tic station to take a train for the pail
ace at Peterhof, where he was to make
his weekly report to the emperor.
The assassination is believed to be
the outcome of a Widespread plot the
existence Of which has been suspected
for several days. Numerous arrests
have already been made, including that
of the assassin, a young man who is
believed to be Finn named Legio, and
who is now in a hospital severely and
perhaps fatally injured by the explo-
sion of his own bomb. An aecomplice
of Leglo, also apparently Finn, but
whose name is unknown, has been ar
rested. He had in his possession a
bomb which he tried to throw, but he
was overpowered by the police just in
time to prevent great loss of life.
The assassin wore a brown over
coat and railroad officials cap. He
stood on the sidewalk just as Minister
Won Plehve's carriage was about to
cross the canal bridge near the sta
ton. The minister was escorted by a
number of detectives on bicycles, and
one of them jostled the assassin, who
then rushed into the road and threw
the bomb after the carriage. The mis-
sile struck the hind wheel and ex-
ploded with fearful force, killing or
wounding over score of persons.
. Minister Won Pleflve and his coachman
were killed outright, and an officer OF
the guard was fatally injured.
Assassin Admits Deed
One of the cyclist detectives arrest
ed the assassin, who endeavored to es-
cape, though wounded by splinters. in
the face, arm and abdomen. He made
no attempt at resistance, however,
when seized by the detective, and con-
fessed his crime, but refused to give
his name.
The coachman was killed and the
wounded and maddened horses dashed
wildly away with the front wheels of
the carriage. the only portion of the
vehicle remaining intact. Immediate
ly there ensued a scene of the widest
confusion. Police and gendarmes hur-
ried up. from every direction and vast

It is estimated by County Treasurer
Metzdorf that 81 per cent of the taxes
owing to Ramsey. eountE on the 1903
assessment will bezpafd this year This
will break all records for tax collec-
tions in the countyN and will s6e an in
crease in. the collections of 81 per cent
over last year, when the scailectiens
amounted to "a per- cent of the entire
tax.
Mr.. Metzdorf based his zopiimistic
estimate upon the showing made in
the May collections. These collections
were SO heavy, especially those re-
ceived by mall that it was not until
yesterday that the last receipts were
made out. The office force has been
busy with the mail collections since
the last day of May, on which date
the greater number of the checks We're
received at the treasurer's Office
Collected Nearly $soo,ooo May 81
The collections for the month of May
amounted to $1,29O.S75.31, and of this
amount $S98,65e.04 reached the office
on the last day of the month. This is
better showing than has ever been
made in the collection Of taxes in the
history of Ramsey county. The tax
which the street railway company
must pay is not included in the above
amounts
The company's tax this year aggre-
gates $91 1,046.S6, but the payment of it
has been deferred by the company, OBJ
lection being made to. the raise in tie
assessed valuation OF the companys S
property last fall by the state board of
/ equalization. which J increased the
company's tax from $4,000 to ss1.-
c46.S6.
| 1t is the intention pfs the company to
appeal the matter tosthe courts, but it
is believed that this move is more for
the purpose of saving interest on the
money than through any hope that the
assessment will be reduced. If the
company goes into court it will not
have to pay the tax, for some months
yet, and the interest it will save will
amount to several thousands of dollars,
Last year the total collections for the
month of May Were 1888. .560.41. of
which amount $923,924.S7 was received
on the last dag Of the month. While
the figures on their face show last
years collections. to be heavier than
those of this year, such is not the fact
since the tax of the street railway
company is included in last years
figures and is not in the figures for the
collections of the current year.
Rate of Levy Reduced
Another matter to be considered is
the difference, in the levy. A year ago
the levy was 81 mills. but this year it
was reduced to 29.1O mills, a reduction
of almost mills. which would amount
to several thousands of dollars in it,
self. Regardless ofsthe difference of
almost 2 mills in the levy in favor of
last year, the total collections for this
year, including the tax owing by the
street railway company and which is
sure to be paid, are much heavier than
those of 1903.

CHICAGO, July 2S.-After issuing a
general order that would have involved
all the Chicago railroads in the stock
yards strike, Lawrence J. Curran,
president of the Freight Handlers
union, tonight reconsidered his action
and is now holding his order in abey-
ance pending a conference tomorrow
morning with leaders of the allied
trades unions whose members are on
strike. 1t is stated, however, that if
President Donnelly, of the Butchers,
union, and the other strike leaders ex-
press desire to have the order issued
it will be put into effect at once.
The central council of the Freign
Handlers union was in session at mid
night and it is stated that all prepara-
tions have been made to put the strike
order in force if it shall be deemed
necessary.
President Curran's order, if lived up
TO by the freight handlers, would work
a severe hardship on the packers, as it
explicitly directs that union men shall
handle no freight for the big packing
companies, either outgoing or incom-
ing.
AT a meeting with the business
unions today it was decided that all
men under the jurisdiction of our or
Eanization in the various railroads in
Chicago be ordered not to receive or
deliver any freight of the packers,
whether this freight is delivered at the
freight houses by teams or in cars
The order, which was signed by
President Curran and all the business
agents, was posted in all the railroad
freight houses tonight.
Effort for Peace
At the same time that this step was
being taken by the freight handlers
president, the first move in an effort
to bring about another conference be-
tween the packers and the strikers was
being made. Henry C. Wallace, the
we'll known writer and lecturer on ag-
ricultural topics, of Des Moines, Iowa.

Choice of Rosebud Agency
Homesteads

I CHAMBERLAIN, S.. D., July Is
The eagerly awaited day for the draw
ing of the lands of the Rosebud reser-
walton dawned bright and sultry. An
hour before the time appointed for the
drawing to begin there was a crowd
of 500 or 1000 persons surrounding
the building in which the registered
names were to be drawn. The crowd
was much smaller than expected.
Promptly at O'Clock United States
Land Commissioner Richards inaugu-
rated proceedings by announcing the
rules that were to govern the drawing.
The commissioner and Judge Elean-
er Weakly, of Omaha, and p. F. Sher-
man, of Sioux Falls, were the commit
tee empowered to conduct operations.
The huge wheel which held the names
of hopeful aspirants for quarter sec
tions was a box ten feet long by thir-
ty-one inches through. A rod running
the entire length of the box was rigged
with crankhandles by which the box
could be turned. At $50 a. m. the en-
tire registration had been thoroughly
mixed and placed in the box. Eight
boys We're selected to serve on alter
nate days.
Lucky Sommers drew the lot
which named him as the first to draw
from the box.
Shortly after 10 o'clock, at a signal
from the commissioner, young Som
mers inserted his hand into the box
and drew out the first envelope, which
he handed to the commissioner. The
commissioner tore open the envelope
and announced:
William Mccormick, of Lancaster
county, Nebraska"
One thousand names were drawn to-
day, at the conclusion of which the
drawing was adjourned until o'clock
tomorrow morning.
William Mccormick, of Lancaster
county, Nebraska, who drew the first
choice, is twenty-seven years old, and
a veteran of the Spanish American
war, having served in the Second Me-
braska volunteers. Seventy-four other
names We're drawn in the following
order:

That committee today awarded the
money to the Los Angeles lodge on the
ground that all of the marching mem
