WINONA, Mi1n., June 27.-While
the approaches to Winona from Wis
consin are being closely guarded to
prevent Smith, the outlaw, crossing
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 Tayior, 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 Merrillan, but they We're taken on to
Elroy and then back to Trempealeau.
Then searching party started out in
the direction of GalesvilIe and beyond.
The report at Trempealeau was that a
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
hQn6if PnI11d ha fhoCo hlnnlad nj
mails would be to frequently take to the
water, thus covering up his trail.
The greatest excitement prevails be-
tween Winona and Merrillan, and de-
tachments of militia are at every sta
tion keeping a 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,
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 bar
ber 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 a swamp
at Merrillan, Wis.
The town constable at Holmen has
arrested a suspicious character there
and he will be held for further infor-
nation. He does not, however, closely
answer the description of Smith.

He says he remembers nothing after
he was taken on the train until he
awoke 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

house in that city, was murdered by

claim Dunn on First Ballot


The Dunn men refuse to accept the
figures suggested by T h e Glob e S
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 acclamation.
George A. Finn, one of Dunns
spokesmen, 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.
I'VE are feeling very fine over the
returns tonight from the twenty-one
counties that held their primaries. The
results exceeded our most sanguine ex-
pectauons, 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
ination. The country districts that
know Mr.. Dunn best have stood by him
most manfully. There is no wav in
which he can be jocl1eyed out of the
prize, and on Thursday 1t will be hand
ed to him by the Republican state con-
vention. We are feeling pretty well
over the victory at our headquarters.
but, of course, are glad that the long,
hard contest is nearing an end. Mr..
Dunn is at his residence at lIamline
secure in the knowledge that he has
won the day."
The Collins men absolutely decline to
accept I G 10 e's estimate of the
situation. They not only claim all the
votes that T e Glob 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

primaries in different points in the state.

law only protects those who attend

for the German law which collects
birth certificates under penalty, and
by aid of them, looks after the vacci-
nation of each child during the first
year of it's life.
