Harvard instructor, who disappeared
after the burial of his wife in Chicago,
is the theory the coroner and the police
have adopted.
The description of Muenter as sent
out by the Boston police in most re.
spects is similar to that of the dead
man, who had made every effort to de-
stroy clues to his identity. The sui

Nv W. W. ,Jernane,

Washington, May l9.-Neither South
Dakota senator was able to respond to
the rollcal yesterday on the passage
Of the rate bill, and for very good
reason. Neither was in the city.
As soon as word came that the fight
in the state might perhaps be close,
and that there was slight chance for
the Kittridge machine to win partial
victory, both gentlemen hurried to the
depot and took the first train for the
west. Whether they went on the same
train, or over the same road is not
known. They will get into the state
Sunday night, and remain until after
the state convention, June 6.
The two house members have been in
the state for three weeks; South Da-
kota at present, therefore, is wi thout
representation in either branch of con-
gress.

maldehyde for root beer, G. Keller, an
aged farmer, living eight miles frora
Sherwood, died late last night after
drinking the contents Of a bottle contain

about o'clock and thinking that a bot
tie near the door contained root beer,
drank the contents. Medical aid was
summoned from Sherwood, but proved
unavailing.

St. Paul and came to North Dakota about
twenty years ago. He is survived by

Special to The Journal. I'D.
Menominee, Mich, May 19.--At noon
today careful canvass of the territory
devastated by the forest fires shows
that the situation is worse that has
been reported since the Peshtigo. fire.
It is estimated that dozen towns
have been wiped out, and probably
hundreds Of isolated farms have been
fre-swept. b.. :, r
Three lives, so far, are known to be
lost. And timber lands estimated to
have probably been destroyed. 49,, ..
The territory fre-sWept covered a
stretch of over 100 miles and in
cludes five counties in upper Michigan,
as follows: Menominee, Delta, Dick
inson, Iron and Marquette.
The fires today seem to be the
fercest in Delta county, near Escanaba.
Daggett Saved. >.
The territory from Charming to Es-
CANADA on the Milwaukee is said to be
mass of flames. Some Of the richest
timber lands in the upper peninsula are
also along that line. Several relief
trains are said to be unaccounted for.
It is reported that at least one has
been caught between two fires and
abandoned. =.

Iron Mountain Threatened.

rounded, however, by a wide belt of
cleared land, so the city may not be
in as great danger as reported. The
wires are down, however, and no word
can be received from the city. Iron
Mountain has a population Of 10000
to $4,000.
There is no connection from Marin
cite or Menominee directly, north, but
a telegram received by roundabout
method from Marquette, 200 miles
north of Menominee, says the fire il
doing great damage in the, southern
part of that county. This. means thai
