CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis. July 2s.-
Gov. Davidson, who was here today, said
regarding the John F. Dietz case:
Sheriff Gyiland has telegraphed me that
he did not succeed In getting Dietz, but
the sheriff did not ask for state aid.
What / Will do should Sheriff GylIand
be captured and also his whole family. If
Sawyer county Is unable to effect the cap
ture, the state must take hand. Wiscon-
sin is getting tired of this outlawry and 1t
is going to stop. even if calling out the
whole state militia is necessary.
1.-THE case is now more serious than 1t
was before. Not Dietz only, but his whole
family. Is under suspicion of having shed
blood. Every member will have to be
taken into custody and the guilty ones
picked out by due process OF law. Sheriff
Gylland did not try to capture Dietz, be-
cause of alleged trouble with lumber
company. The sheriff did not try to serve
a civil warrant. 1t was criminal warrant
charging Dietz with attempt to murder
members of sheriff's posse over year
ago."

DRINKING A CORPSE.
Thrifty English Town Council Would
Not Empty It's Reservoir.

LONDON, July 2s.-The sentiment of the
people of Bradford has been rudely shock
ed by the knowledge that badly decom-
posed body of a man has been taken
from one of the reservoirs which supply
the city with drinking water.
At the inquest Mr.. Watson. the en-
gineer to the Bradford water works, ex-
pressed the opinion that the water was
not rendered unfit for drinking by the ac-
cfdent. The reservoir contained 1.240 mill
lion pounds of water, while the body of the
man weighed say, 40 pounds. The rela-
tive proportions of the body and the water
obviated any risk, and If the reservoir
were emptied there would be a loss TO the
rate payers of $4,000. An eminent scien-
fist figured out the chances of ptomaine
poisoning were not one in a million. but
even the figures did not stop the hue and
cry. The water in the reservoir is still be-
ing used and the citizens are Disguised.
