partly recognizable from the descrip-
ton, but there was no one on the spot
until a late hour who could positively
identify the body. The American con-
sui at Plymouth, after viewing the
body tonight, had no doubt that 1t was
that of F. Kent Loomis. The police,
however, refused to allow the consul
to examine the papers found on the
body. All the valuables have been
sealed up, including ring which was
found on finger and which is said to
be inscribed inside with the name of
Loomis' wife.
The American consul has arranged
that proper care be taken of the body.
He said tonight there was an abrasion
under the right ear. There were no
important papers on the body and the
decedent's watch had stopped at 6
o'clock. The Kaiser Wilhelm IL ar
rived at Plymouth at o'clock in the
morning.
Mr.. LOOMS was charged by the auz
thorities at Washington to convey to
Abyssinia the treaty of commerce con-
Guided between the United States and
Emperor Menelik. Mr.. Loomis tray-

ance of the former, took the treaty,

LIEUTENANT IS OUT
Haieht Resigns Because OF
Negro Trouble at the Fair


ST. LOUIS, Mo-, July 1e.-Lieut. c.
Sidney Haight, of the Fourth United
States cavalry, military aide to Presi-
dent Francis and director of the mill
tary camps at the exposition, has ten
dered his resignation to the board of
directors of the fair upon the request, it
is said, of the war department, which
acted after hearing the result of an in
vestigation into the negro problem at
the exposition. This investigation was
ordered by President Roosevelt, it is
said.
The resignation OF Lieut. Haight is
believed to be the direct result of the
trouble created over the Eighth Hill
nois, a negro regiment of Chicago,
which was originally assigned to the
regular military. camp at the fair. 1t
was learned later that the Eighth Illi-
| nois was a negro regiment and Lieut..
Haight wrote to Col. Marshall, its COM
mander, to ask him if he would consent
| to occupy a camp in a remote part of
the grounds.
Col. Marshall in reply advised Lieut..
Haight that his regiment had aban-
| doned its plan to visit the fair. Friends
of the negro regiment called President
Rooseselt's attention to the affair, it is

is SURE THE BODY
is HARVEY LOGAN'S
Detective Takes Look at the Re-
mains of Train Robber.

GLENwooD SPRINGS Col, July
16.-The body of the Rio Grande train
robber who committed suicide after be-
ing wounded by one of the posse which
was pursuing him, was exhumed today
to permit an inspection by L. Spence,
of Chicago, who represents a detective
agency. Spence, who had much to do
with the conviction of Harvey Logan,
the noted bandit, at his trial at Knox
vile, Tenn, for participation in the
Great Northern train robbery, identi-
fed the Rio Grande train robber as
Logan from pictures taken before his
burial here.
Spence was unable to complete his
Identification today for the reason that
the body was in so advanced a state
of decomposition as to destroy all dis
tinguishing marks. Nevertheless, he
still maintains that Harvey Logan and
the Rio Grande bandit are one and
the same person. He has been
strengthened in his belief after a talk
with local criminologist who had pre-
viously examined the features of the
dead bandit.

In fear of violence of such nature
as to justify the calling out of the mil
tia, Gov Van SAINT remained at his
office In the state capitol all day yes
terday, and in his Office in the same
building sat Adjt. Gen. E. D. Libbey,
awaiting developments at the scene of
the South st. Paul strike, of a charac-
ter to demand his services.
The seriousness with which the state
authorities regard the situation at the
Swift & Co. plant was shown by a call
during the morning from Maj. C. T.
Spear, of the, Third regiment, Mime
sofa national guard, who called to in
quiree as to developments. He was told
by Robert ,Jamison, private secretary
of the governor, that nothing had oc-
Cured changing the general situation,
and the inference from the converse
ton was that Spear has received or
ders to hold himself and men in read
mess the day before and his call was IN
line with that order.
Adjt. Gen. Libbey, while not dis
zcussing the situation to any extent,
intimated that the militia could not
be called out until some act of blood
shed or destruction or property had
occurred.
'"The national guard under the law
cannot be sent against strikers until
actual bloodshed has occurred or the
strikers begin to destroy property"
said Gen. Libbey.
In reply to an inquiry as to whether
such an opinion had been given out
by the attorney generals office he said
he understood It had.
1t is known that Assistant Attorney
General P. A. Ewert spent several
hours yesterday looking up the law
covering the authority vested ii. the
executive department of the state in
calling out the militia to quell riot.
He found the books covering the
question very few in the state law IL
brary, and the opinions not clearly de-
fined.
Gov. Van SAINT said last night that if
any such opinion had been given out
by the attorney generals office it had
not been submitted to him. The gov

While at work for the first time
at the Itasca sawnill, on the river
bank at Twenty-seventh avenue north,
Minneapolis, John Knoyvsky, a laborer
boarding at 1929 Marshall street
dragged to the huge saws and cut into
eleven pieces.
Knoyysky had been engaged yester :
day to place logs dragged from the
river upon the conveyors which carry
the timbers to the saws. He had been
working three hours when he slipped
and was carried off his feet by a con-
yeyor which sped rapidly on. its
round.
Before the worknen who had been
engaged with Knoyvsky in dragging
logs became aware OF his perilous po-
sition he had already been dragged
half the distance between the load
ing point and the buzzing saws.
Knoyvsky cried appealingly for help,
and struggled frantically to get off the
conveyor.
The laborers, realizing that an at
tempt TO rescue him meant death to
themselves, were compelled to stand
by and see him cut to pieces by the
rapidly revolving saws.
The machinery, controlled from a
point where the danger of the man
could not be seen, was not stopped un-
til the body was scattered in frag-
ments between the saws. The trunk
was cut in three parts, bones having
been ground as easily as flesh.
Little could be learned of Knoyvsky,
who started work at the mill last
night. He boarded at 1929 Marshall
street. 1t is said that he is married.

senting his Office had visited South st.
Paul yesterday to determine from ac-
tual investigation the extent of the
violence that is being used by the
strikers. Such a report was in circu-

day.
Sympathy With Strikers
]. H. Beck, who visited South st.

ed on Gov. Van SAINT. He said that the

Special to The Globe
NEW YORK, July 16.-The World
says, Charles F. Murphy, will return
from Mount Clemens, Mich, Thursday
and Tammany leaders said tonight
they expected ne would find awaiting
him an Invitation from Judge Parker
to pay a visit to Esopus. They are
relying upon Judge Parker to make
advances which will result in pulling
Tammany out of the hole into which
Murphy's performances at st. Louis
placed the organization. Though
Tammany is not generally regarded
as being in position to make de-
mands, it is said Murphy will claim
the naming of the goyernorship as
a share of what he considers a fair
division of state Offices. Whether he
wants to name Mcclellan or some
other man is still a matter of doubt,
but that he wants to name Mcclellan
is the general belief.
Senator German will decline to be-
come national chairman. Democratic
leaders will confer in this city on Sun
day. Senator McCarren's mana cement
of the state campaign will be opposed
by Tammany Hall and Democrats in
Brooklyn. August Belmont has given
up the idea of taking the national
committee craftsmanship. He will be
in charge of the money end of the
