DEATHS OF THE DAY.

OSSINING, N. Y, May 4. - Sam
Parks, the New York labor leader, who
was sent to Sing Sing prison some
months ago after his conviction on a
charge OF extortion, died in the prison
today. He had consumption at the
time of his conviction and had failed
rapidly since he was sent to Sing Sing.
Parks was prominent for years in labor
circles, being a leader in Chicago be-
fore coming to New York, and the 10y
atty to him of his associates in New
York was remarkable. He was walk
ing delegate, or business agent, of the
local Housesmiths and Bridgemen's
union for several years, and it was
under his leadership that the big strike
of iron workers in New York last year
was inaugurated.
NEW YORK, May 4. - Ashbel P.
Fitch, president of the Trust Company
of America and former comptroller of
the city of New York, died today at
the age Of fifty-six years. In 1886
Mr.. Fitch was elected to congress on
the Republican ticket and was re-
elected as a Democrat, serving three
terms. Originally Republican, he
Joined the Democratic party because
Of his low tariff views, and later re-
turned to the Republicans on account
of his belief in the gold standard.

William Clawson, formerly a brake
man in the employ of the Northern Pa
clfic in this city, in a complaint filed in
the district court yesterday demanded
of his former employers the sum of
$2O.250 as balm for injuries sustained
by him in an accident which is alleged
to have occurred two months ago at
the Third street junction of the COM
pany's yards in this city.
In enumerating his injuries. Mr..
ClaWson includes about the entire list
that man is heir to, and, upon the allie
cation that the Northern Pacific,
through its agents, is responsible for
his condition, demands a settlement.
Clawson's story, as told by his attor-
ney in the complaint filed with the
clerk Of courts, says he is a resident of
Superior, Wis, but at the time of his
Injuries he was employed as brake
man in st. Paul.
Wild Cars Came Down the Hill.
He was in a caboose which had been
switched over to the main track at the
loot OF the incline known among the
railroad men as Est. Paul HILL" and was
In the act of performing his duties in
proper manner when nine loaded cars.
detached from any engine, came down
the hill at a rate of speed which did
not bode good for anything with which
they came in contact. The cars crashed
into the caboose, and according to the
complaint, ClaWson was thrown fifteen
feet. being stopped in his rapid fight
only when he came in contact with the
solid end of the caboose.
Clawson was removed to a hospital,
and when he had regained conscious
ness, an invoice of his injuries was
taken, which enabled him to enumerate
them in his demand upon the company
for reimbursement. There were few
things he didn't get in the smashup, if
his allegations are proved to be true,
and he believes he will never again be
able to perform manual labor in the
manner In which he was capable Of
doing before the accident.
Mr.. ClaWson says he was thirty years
old at the time he received the injuries
mentioned, and that his expectations
of life at that time was 1888 years,
which would give him an earning ca
pac1ty of many thousands of dollars
Now, that he has been robbed of this
earning capacity, and suffered in ad-
dition thereto from the numerous in
juries, he demands $20,250 His losses,
according to his own manner Of jotting
down figures, would amount to much
more. but he is willing to settle for
$20,250
The Northern Pacific, not admitting
it's responsibility for the accident
which resulted SO disastrously to Claw
son, is inclined to look upon the figure
as trifie high, and the settlement will
be- adjusted in the district court

SOUTHWEST HAS NO
USE FOR ROOSEVELT
California Republicans In the Mining Bust
ness Not Enthusiastic Over Him.

The presidential vote of California will
not be given to Theodore Roosevelt this
fall according to A. o. Benson, business
man of Clinton, Big Stone county, who has
just returned from a two-month tour of
the Southwest, and who was at the Mer-
chants yesterday.
Roosevelt is not in good repute with
his party in California Mr.. Benson said
to T he Clio b e. 1.-THE state is close
politically and the Republicans do not
seem to enthuse over the prospect of hav-
ing him as their candidate for the pres
ideney. The mining men especially do
not warm up to him.
Hearst is strong in the Southwest.
Scarcely any other candidate is men
toned for the Democratic nomination in
that country, and as Hearst is Cali
fornia boy his support from that state
will be strong. 1t IS altogether probable
that the California delegation to the ma
tional convention will be instructed for
him.

MILLER URGED NOT TO
RUN AGAINST M'CLEARY
Former State Senator Advised to Seek
Railroad Commissionership.

H. j. Miller, the Luverne editor and
former state senator, has not yet made
formal announcement of his decision
with respect to becoming candidate
for congress, and a movement has been
started among his friends looking to
bringing him out as a candidate for
railroad and warehouse commissioner
There is said to be little prospect Of
any one successfully contesting the
congressional field in the Second dis
trict this year with Congressman Nc
Cleary, and Miller is being urged by
his friends to discard his congressional
ambition and break into the already
large field of candidates for railroad
commissioner.
Young, of Mankato, in the same con-
gressional district, is also said to be
considering the advisability Of shying
his castor into the ring provided there
is room left for it to light.

THEY SUPPRESS IT
State Officials Keep Johnson's
Report on Dunn Dark.

Public Examiner S. T. Johnson yes
terday filed with Gov S. r. Van SAINT a
report of his Investigations Of the state
timber land transactions and timber
trespass settlements under the admins
trations of former State Auditors Dunn
and Iverson- The report is exhaustive,
covering over 100 pages, and consists
of extracts from the records and testi-
mony taken by Examiner johnson.
The contents of the report, which
was forwarded to Attorney General
Donahower by Gov. Van SAINT, We're
not divulged, and each of the officials
having knowledge Of them refused to
give out any information.
Gov. Van SAINT had intended to make
the report public, but upon consulting
with Attorney General DonahoWer,
turned it over to the latter, who will
pass upon it before it is published.
The action of Gov. Van SAINT in send
ing the report to the attorney general
and the reticence of the officials re-
garding it, created much comment
about the capitol yesterday, and it was
limited that a sensation might de-
velOp.

ond on the ticket
Herbert P. Keller, the lone Repub-
lfcan chosen to the assembly, ran
fourth on the ticket, Schiffmann, Haas
and Whitcomb being the first three.
p. J. Giesen is the only Democratic can
didate for the assembly who was de-
feated, there being three Republicans
who ran ahead Of him
There were some surprises on the
result of the assembly election, the
figures showing that while H. p. KEEL
Ter was the only Republican chosen,
]. Watson Smith played in his usual
luck and got just enough votes to give
an idea that he might have won. F. B.
Doran, who had been touted as a sure
winner by the Republicans, ran below
Smith, and Reeves, who was boosted
by the young fellows without regard
to party, ran sixty-four votes below
Doran.
The defeat of Arnold and Schurmeier,
at present members Of the assembly,
was decisive, both Of them being far
down on the list. Holt, the representa-
tive of the Scandinavians on the tick
ct, was butchered, being last on the
ticket with but single exception.
There are no really close results,
VIM Powers being elected by 131
votes over j. Watson Smith. This is
such a lead that there is little proba-
bility of a contest.

KIEFER FUNERAL TO
BE HELD SATURDAY
Body Viii Lie in State Four
Hours at the City
Hail.

The funeral of Col. A. r. Kiefer will
take place Saturday afternoon at 3
o'clock from the Peoples church, Rev
S. 6. Smith officiating. The services
will follow the public ceremony in the
mayors parlor in the city hall, where
the body will lie in state on Saturday
from 10 a. m. until p. m. The pub
lie will not be admitted after 2 o'oclck,
the last half hour being given to mem
bers of the family.
Health Commissioner Ohage has been
placed in charge of the public obsequies
in the city hall, and has arranged for
the guard of honor. There will be four
men on duty, one standing at each
corner of the bier, and each serving
for an hour. One of the guards will be
a policeman, one a fireman, one
health officer and one a G. A. r. man.
This means that four men must be
furnished from each department and
organization, there being a relief every
hour. DR.. Ohage will attend to the
draping of the rooms, which win be
darkened and otherwise made appro-
pirate for the occasion. The public
will be required to enter one door,
walk by the bier and go out another
door, this arrangement being made for
the purpose of avoiding a congestion.
The active and honorary pallbearers
have been selected, and will be an
nounced as soon as they have accepted.
Mrs. Kiefer has decided that the flu
neral will be direct FROM the church,
and that therefore the body will not
be taken to Marienborn, the country
home.
DR.. Miller, the coroner, yesterday
filed the death certificate at the health
department, in which he stated that
death was due to fatty degeneration and
to a rupture of the heart
Mrs. Harry Brock, the daughter of
Col. Kiefer, is expected to arrive to-
morrow from San Francisco, the flu
neral having been delayed on that ac-
count,

high pressure and gave the engines all
the water they wanted.
Mr. Caulfield added that he did not
see Chief Jackson yesterday during
the fire, as was reported, and did not
speak to him about the frozen pipe
What Chief Jackson Says.
Eyes, our department was notified
that this hydrant was frozen" said
Chief John Jackson, Of the fire depart
ment; but / knew nothing about it
personally. Such notifications are al
ways sent to the captains Of the differ
ent companies, so they will waste no
time trying to use plugs not in service.
But, OF course, we don't thaw out fro
zen pipes; that is the work Of the wa
ter board. And whenever a hydrant is
put in service, after being frozen, we
are notified again.
Nov, in this case the record kept
by the captain of No. 2 engine COM
pany shows that on the goth of last
February he was notified that the hy-
drant opposite the Lindeke mill was
frozen. The record also shows, as you
see, that the same hydrant was report
ed again in service on April 8. That's
why we tried to get water from the
plug today. There was a mistake
somewhere; the hydrant is still frozen
apparently; but it isn't clear just how
the misunderstanding came about.
There was probably a little water
in the three other Seventh street hy-
drants that our engines had to leave.
Yet the supply was so limited that
these engines could throw no streams,
and one engine came near burning out
it's boiler"
