Bitterness Engendered by the Cam
paiqn Shows i'm Declarations of In
tention to Fight Even Beyond the
State OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES and
Ramsey Will Send Contesting Del
eqatiOns---Dunn Carries St. LOUISE
Returns Received Give Dunn Lead
While Collins Claims All Doubtful
Counties

The hottest pre-cOnvention fight in
the history of Republican politics of
Minnesota now threatens a split in the
party.
Indications point to a Collins con-
vention and a Dunn convention.
AS necessary corollary there will
be Dunn ticket and Collins ticket
in the field and the courts to be called
on to settle the legality of the con-
test.
1t will be another case of La Toilette
and anti-La Toilette.
The split will not surprise those pol
iticians who have studied the record
of the past. six months The fight has
been waged with an increasing bitter
ness from day to day, eliminating last
night in primaries in Ramsey and
Hennepin counties which for attend
ance and excitement have never been
equaled in the history of these towns.
Hundreds of men voted in precincts
where ordinarily dozens vote; and the
total vote in each city is probably
largely n excess of the normal party
vote on election day. Certainly this
proved the fact in Ramsey county.
In St. Louis county the fight was hot,
but nothing like the excitement ap--
peared that was manifest in the Twin
Cities. The county was carried easily
for Dunn. There are, however, a big
lot of sore people at the head of the
lakes who are just sore enough to wei
come a bolt at the state convention.
From all over the state come reports of
hot primary fights and bitter feelings
engendered and it will take time to
heal the breaches that have been Gre
ated in the gubernatorial fight of 1904,
even if the convention should succeed
in patching up it's differences without
an open bolt.
But that a bolt is imminent cannot
be denied, and Republicans closest to
the Republican political game in Min
nesota make no effort to conceal their
apprehension of the state convention
on Thursday.
Fight Hinges on Today's Results
The fight will hinge about the results
of the county conventions today in
Ramsey and Hennepin. The country
districts appear to be strong for Rob-
ert G. Dunn, the Princeton candidate
for governor, and last night, when all
the counties in the state had had their
primaries, T he Clio b e figures, based
Oh information received through its
usual news channels and taken-with
due allowances the claims Of
the rival candidates for governor, gave
the following results:
Dunn, 523.
Collins, 262.
Eddy %.
Doubtful, 1914.
These figures do not include the re-
turns from Ramsey and Hennepin
counties. In Ramsey county the fight
is so close-and incidentally so furious
-that-it is almost sure that two county
conventions will be held and two sets
of delegates sent to the state conven-
ton.

NEW CHWANG, June 27.- Gen.
Kuropatkin not only may find himself
unable to prevent the retreating Port
Arthur relief column under Gen. Sta
kelberg from being cut off from his
main army, but in few hours the
whole Russian force possibly will be
blocked from retiring on Mukden- by
the cutting of it's line of communica-
tons at Liau-yang, for yesterday one
of Gen. Kurokfs columns broke the
Russian defense in the mountains east
of Liau-yang and occupied the I'M
portant Mao Tien pass. The Japa-
nese took the pass with little loss, after
driving back the Russians along the
main military road from Fung wang to
Liau-yang.
The japanese today command the
mountain roads leading to the PENN
suIa railway at Liau-yang, and 1t is
expected that before tomorrow they
will not be far from that city.
Mao Tien pass is but few miles from
Liau-yang, which has been Gen. Kuro-
patkin's field base, being fed by the
Russian military depot at Mukden.

ST. PETERSBURG, June 27-The

The following are the details of the

There is every prospect that Ramsey
county will send contesting delegations
to the Republican state convention,
which is to be held in st. Paul Thurs
day. AS result of the hard battle at
the primaries in this county last night
both the Dunn and Collins forces are
claiming victory in the county, and no
matter which faction wins out in to-
days county convention it is believed
the losing side will appeal to the state
convention.

WINONA, Mimi, June 27.-While

into Minnesota at this point, and the
river, both up and down stream. is be-
ing closely watched at likely crossing
points, it is believed that the bandit is
between Trempealeau and Taylor, Wis.
The principal DEVELOPMENT TODAY was
the arrival at Trempealeau of two
bloodhounds from Superior. Dispatches
from Superior today stated that
bloodhounds had been sent from there
to Mcmillan, but they were taken on to
Elroy and then back to Trempealeau.
Then a searching party started out in
the direction of GalesvilIe and beyond.
The report at Trempealeau was that
man answering the description Of the
bandit had been seen near Taylor this
morning and that he appeared to be
heading southwest, so that if he con-
tinued in that direction he would be
likely to meet the party that set out
from Trempealeau this afternoon.
Once the trail of the bandit is really
found it is believed the bloodhounds
will make short work in running him
down. The hounds will not be unpro-
-vided with proper scent. When the
outlaw was at Hixton early last week
he was seen to throw away a pair of
overalls, and these have been preserv-
ed and are now with the party in
charge of the hounds. 1t is believed
that about the only way in which the
bandit could battle these blooded ami
mails would be to frequently take to the
water, thus covering up his trail.
The greatest excitement prevails be-
tween Winona. and Mcmillan, and de-
/ tachments of militia are at every sta
ton keeping close watch. Today two
carriage loads of militiamen crossed
the river at this point and went down
on the Minnesota side to guard against
the bandit crossing over into this state
without being caught.
Makes Barber Shave Him Quick
LA CROSSE, Wis, June 27.-John
Smith. the slayer of Sheriff Harris,
who was reported about to attempt the
crossing of the Mississippi river at
Winona. has turned south and is now
believed to be in hiding in the Black
river bottoms, between North Bend and
Holmen, this county. A man answer
ing his description appeared in a bar
Der shop on the outskirts of La Crosse
Saturday and forced the barber by
threats to shave off his mustache in a
hurry. He is believed to be in swamp
at MERRIAM, Wis.
The town constable at Holmen has
arrested suspicious character there
and he will be held for further infor-
nation. He does not, however, closely
answer the description of Smith.

ATTACK A WITNESS
Man Who Saw a Murder Tells
Astonishing Story

FOND DU LAC, Wis, June PA
man about thirty years Of age fished
himself out of the Fond du Lac river
in this city today and afterwards told
a weird story of being kidnapped in Chi
cago and taken on board freight train.
He says he remembers nothing after
he was taken on the train until he
awolxe to find himself In the river.
Then he managed to get to the shore
and sought for a place where he could
dry his clothes. He borrowed so cents
and telegraphed to Chicago friends to
send him money to pay his fare home.
The man said his name was Joseph
Krosek and that his home is in Chi
cago.
His mother, who kept boarding
house in that city, was murdered by a
boarder last week in a fit of anger
about the dinner, and the son was one
of the principal witnesses against him.
He believes that it was friends of the
murderer who threw him into the riv-
er, hoping that he would drown so that
his evidence could not be given on the
trial.
CHICAGO, June 27.-The Chicago
police declare that no woman named
Krosek was murdered in this city last
week nor at any other time. The name
Joseph Krosek does not appear in the
city directory.

There are charges and counter
charges galore in the conduct Of the
Ramsey county primaries and as the
organization is in the hands of the Col
Inns men, there was talk last night of
a lurid type by the Dunn men who de-
clared that they would not be bound
by the actions of the Collins crowd in
the Ramsey county organization, and
would take their case to the state con-
Vention.
Claim Dunn on First Ballot
The Dunn men refuse to accept the
figures suggested by The Globes
estimate, and say that without either
Hennepin or Ramsey counties in the
state convention they are assured. of
sufficient votes to nominate the Prince
ton man on the first ballot, and the
more optimistic insist that the nomi-
nation will be made by reclamation.
George A. Finn, one of Dunn,s
spokesman, said last night at the Dunn
headquarters in the New York Life
building, that Mr.. Dunn had enough
votes to ensure his nomination with
out the two big delegations from the
Twin Cities.
We are feeling very fine over the
returns tonight from the twenty-one
counties that held their primaries. The
results exceeded our most sanguine ex-
pectatlons, and ST. Louis, Dakota, Lyon,
Murray, Sibley, Washington and
Wright are among the counties to be
added to the Dunn scalp belt. There is
absolutely no doubt of Mr.. Dunn's NOM
lnation. The country districts that
know Mr.. Dunn best have stood by him
most manfully. There is no way in
which he can be jockeyed out of the
prize, and on Thursday 1t will be hand
ed to him by the Republican state con-
Vention. We are feeling pretty we'll

hard contest is nearing an end. Mr..
Dunn is at his residence at lIamline

The Collins men absolutely decline to
accept I e Clio e's estimate of the
situation. They not only claim all the
votes that T h e G 10 e's figures give
them, but they claim practically every
doubtful vote in the state and a large
number of the votes which many of the
newspapers give to Dunn in the size-up
OF the situation. They say they have evil

primaries in different points in the state.
