Conroy About Convinced.

Conroy About Convinced.
Superintendent Conroy is satisfied
that they are not the men wanted, but
is positive they were involved in some
other affair of serious nature and for
that reason they may not be released
for some time. -..E:- s>.. o..
Other clues by the score have been
followed up since last night and Super
intendent Conroy announced this morn
ing that both the woman and buggy
theory had been abandoned. In spite
of this announcement, however, several
detectives were working along this line
this morning.
One of these reports, that buggy
containing two men went down Division
street at rapid pace shortly after the
murder, has been run down. In the
buggy were Detectives HELM and John
son, who were following up possible
clues and forming a Gordon of citizens
to prevent the desperadoes from escap-
ing into the country.
NE. one of the victims. says that i'm
to the side door of the saloon where
he could look down Central avenue. He
saw the bandits run toward the city
and then dart off into the field, but
saw no carriages. He thinks he could
have seen the carriages had there been
any there.
On the other hand his testimony is
contradicted by that of G.. E. Connors
1901 Central avenue, who ran upstairs
as soon as the shooting was over and
saw two carriages speeding toward the
city.
The police this morning learned that
two young men of Northeast Mime
apolis had acted peculiarly since the af'
fair, and it was rumored that they hat
made damaging admissions to some Of
their friends. Several officers were de
tailed to follow this clue.
Another clue that may develop int,
something important was found at Tur

there by Superintendent Conroy. H

Confronted by ten Of the victims Of
the Columbia Heights bandit murderers,
the three suspects, Henry Wilson, Louis
Smith and Henry Baryden, still stick
to their original story that they knew
nothing of the affair until they were
arrested. The police have practically
abandoned the hope Of connecting them
with the tragedy.
Men who were in the saloon at the
time of the shooting struggled into
Central police station one after an
other all forenoon, and with few ex-
ceptions they shook their heads and
said the prisoners were not the men
who committed the crime. A few, tho
not able to make positive Identification,
affirmed that Smith resembles the
leader of the gang, and that Barvden
corresponds to one of the others. None
of the victims was able to trace any
resemblance in Wilson.
The suspects were in the sweatbox
four hours this morning and retained
their composure thruout the ordeal.
They are cheerful and willing to talk
and all three tell exactly the Same
story. Their first statement to the de-
tectives that they stayed at the Dakota
house, 112 Washington avenue s. has
been verified by the police. Their
names appear on the register for that
night and the niehtclerk clearly re-
members their coming in late and ask

Damaging evidence that Will go far In
establishing the guilt or innocence of
any persons whom the police may arrest
can be given by J. F. Kinney, who con-
\ ducts a saloon at University and TWEEN
ty-ffth avenues NE.
Mr.. Kinney says that shortly before
10 clock on the night of the murder
three men drove up to his saloon in a
buggy and two of them came in and
hurriedly asked for drinks. He gave
quietly for another glass for their
friend in the buggy. They took it out
to him, returned in moment and, after
paying fer, the liquor, jumped into the
carriage and drove rapidly away.
The two men who came into the sa-
loon were young, almost boyish in ap-
pearance and manner. They wore
SLOUGH hats drawn we'll down over their
eyes, and had their coat collars turned
great hurry.
Altho he could not see the man in the
buggy plainly, Mr.. Kinney thinks he
was older and may have had nous
tache. He also wore dark clothes.
The horse was large, spirited black
and showed evidence Of having been
driven at a furious pace. He was drip
ping with sweat and acted much as
tho the whip had been freely used.
The police have learned that the same
party stopped at another saloon fur
Their out University avenue, where they
ordered drinks in the same way.
This information is another point cor
roborating the theory that the mel
drove down Central avenue toward the
city. If so, they must have come dowr
as far as Twenty avenue. From
there they drove directly to Kinney Z
saloon and then again to the other sa
loon further out. They could ther
easily have driven to the city limits

Financial Interests for Roosevelt.

The large convention Of bankers
from all parts Of the country which
has been in session in New York City
has emphasized one fact more than 1t
could have been done III any other
way. namely. that the financial inter
ests of the country are almost unanl-
nous for the election Of Theodore
Roosevelt and the continuance of a
Republican administration. Columns
of interviews have been printed with
these bankers. and whether from the
commercial cities of the East or from
the agricultural towns OF the West,
whether from the North or from the
South. nine out of every ten have
been in favor of standing pat on our
present policies and principles. 1t is
Very natural that the bankers as well
az other commercial and professional
men should each take pride in their
own section of the country, and yet
perhaps with more enthusiasm coming
from the great West than from the
conservative men Oh the T1aSt III liilS
connection the expression Of Mr.. }.
L. Wilson. president of the San
Francisco National Bank, will be
most interesting. Speaking of the
conditions in California in particular.
and Of the great West i'll general, Mr..
Wilson prefaces his remarks with the
followin@:
:. While the East has its feast,
And the South a full mouth;
And the North may bring forth;
Yet the West is the best.
Mr.. Wilson then had the following
TO say concerning the one great need
that is now apparent in our Western
countries.
The West abounds in evervthin"
except people. This deficit Is causing
no anxiety. The population is in
creasing more rapidly than In the re
mainder Of the country. There was a
gain Of nearly | per cent. in the nine
States and Territories known as the
West between 1890 and 1900. against
a Gain Of little over 20 per cent III
the remainder of the country. There
are no available figures of gain since

1900, but there are good reasons for
believing that the increase for the
past four years has been proportion
ately greater than it was in the prev
ious ten.'
This is no new cry. For years it
has seemed as if it was almost impos-
sible, particularly during the season
of crop gathering, to obtain sufficient
labor to properly conduct our great
harvests. Three dollars a day and
keep is no unusual price to be offered
the capable man, with employment for
several months during the summer
and autumn of each year. But this
great cry Of the West for help is
also being echoed now in the South,
where II increased demand for intelli-
gent labor is constantly being made
because of the growing manufacture
ing interests in the several States and
because of the increase in values of
agricultural products.
TIE fact of the matter is that it is
the wage Garner in all parts of the
country who is reaping the greatest
benefit from our present prosperity.
1t is not so much rapid increase III
wages as it is more full employment
and lesser hours Of labor. which gives
10 the wage Garner fully two hours a
day more for comfort and domestic
and social enjoyment than was the
case half a century ago. 1t is not
more than twenty years ago that one
Of our greatest divines. Henry Ward
Beecher, III supporting for President
Mr. Grover Cleveland, said that

boring man to earn and spend. And

so-called laboring man today will av-
el'age a considerable over 50 a day.

Dor is not exceptional. Our skilled
