RIGHT THRU HIS BARN
Ben Gunderson Surprised and Damaged
by Course Of New Alley.

Ben Gunderson was a surprised man
when he went to his home at Madison
street and Fifteenth avenue NE, after
work the other evening, and found that
an alley had been right thru his barn.
The city council commission on street
opening had ordered the new driveway,
and the survey made during the own.
IS absence ran thru the stable just
as tho it hadn't been there.
Gunderson appealed to the commits
but he has taken the matter before the
council now, asking that body to re.
consider its confirmation of the award
which, Gunderson says, is ridiculously
swall. He says he is too paar to stand
q lawsuit, and anyhow Alderman Oscar
Z. Larson is to blame, Gunderson de.
clares, for failing to notify him of the
impending action.

CzAR BOWS TO REVERSE
Severe Character of Naval Repulse
Admitted in st. Petersburg.

ST, Petersburg. Aug. IS, 2:03 pm
The gladness Of the people at the an
nouncement Of the birth Of the heir
apparent could not be fully shared
at Peterhof. The emperor this morn
ing received a telegram from TSlng-
chau announcing the death Of Rear
Admiral Without and the result Of
the sortie Of the Russian warships,
as already cabled to the Associated
Press, leaving no doubt of the severe
character Of the reverse sustained by
the Port Arthur squadron. The con-
tents of the telegram were telephoned
to the admiralty and became quickly
known thruout the city.
The return Of the majority Of the
Russian warships to Port Arthur has
not softened the blow. On the con-
trary, it is felt that their retreat to-
wards the beleaguered fortress has
dashed the hopes of juncturef with
the Vladivostok squadron. Naval1men
believe, however, that the Japanese
were badly battered and that Admiral
Togo will not be in a position to fol-
low up his success
The Associated Press is able, on the
highest authority, to deny the report
that, the Argentine warships have
been purchased by Russia and that
they have joined the Vladivostok
squadron.
The admiralty strongly repudiates
the allegation that the battleship CA
revitch is being repaired, with Ger
man assistance. No such breach of
neutrality is possible. The report is
attributed at the admiralty to a Jap
anese source, the Japanese, it is add
ed, hoping to offset it against their
own fragrant violation of neutrality
in the attack on and capture OF the
Russian torpedoboat destroyer Ryes-
hitelni at Chi-fu. - s :%
Russians Bolster Hope.
The admiralty entertains the hope
that some OF: the battleshi ps, afterthe
return to Port Arthur, managed tC
elude Admiral Togo. and join the
Vladivostok squadron. tits pointed
out that the admiral nowhere explicit
ly states that the Russian squadron
actually went back to Port Arthur
The Toxic report that4the Novik
coaled at Tsing-chau before going out

Russian vessels undoubtedly IS hlleo
their bunkers before leaving Port Ar

Captain Matousevitch's silence re.
garding the battle is ascribed to The

FLOUR CITY NAN SHOOTS
NJ. G. KEANE, A VAUDEVILLE
PROMOTER, WOUNDS AN EN-
PLOYEE, IN DISPUTE AT BRAN
DON'S FAIR.
Special to The-J Journal.

Special to The Journal.
Winnipeg, Man, Aug. 13.-Bran-
don's fair was pretty free Of tragedy
and accident but during the closing
hours much excitement was crowded
in, and IN consequence one person is
lying at the point of death in a hos
pital and one man is behind the bars.
A tank attached to a traction en-
CINE ran over Fred Cornell, who was
picked up and taken to a hospital,
where it. was discovered that he was
seriously if not fatally injured. The
tank passed over his chest.
When time came for settling with
the employees of the sideshows, a dis
pute arose between M. C. Keane, who
had an aggregation of negro talent,
and FIG. Robinson,E zone of the white
employees, who claimed $23 in wages,
an amount disputed by Keane. The
argument became heated and Keane
drew revolver and fired twice at
Robinson, one bullet grazing the
scalp.
Keane's story is; that Robinson
snatched a five dollar, bill from him,
and in his excitement he drew his
gun. Keane comes from Minneapolis
and is well known in vaudeville cir
cles and bears a. good name.

CoWHERD, SHORT OF FUNDS
Democratic Congressional Committee
man Goes Out F'at-Frying.

From The Journal Bureau Colorado Building,
Washington,
washington, Aug. 1s.-one of the
objects Of Chairman Cowherd's visit
to New York next Monday is to. get
funds to run the. congressiona cam
paigns. Notwithstanding the. general
belief that the deIfocrats will have
plenty Of money for Legitimate ex-
penses this year, there IS "a scarcity
Of coin at congressional Committee
headquarters now that is, the com
n1ittee has none for distribution in
close districts.
This fact developed within the past
few days. When some of the candi-
dates in West Virginia. districts sent
urgent appeals for an allotment of
funds for preliminary expenses, they
were told to wait a while. Up to date
Chairman Cowherd has only enough
money to pay the expenses Of his own
limited staff and for the preparation
and distribution, Of campaign litera-
ture. He and his assistants both say,
however, they will have a plentiful
supply in a week or SO, by which time
August Belmont and his millionaire
assistants on the executive commit
tee will have begun their fat-frying.
