FOR WEEKS ENCAMPMENT
Good Prospects for a Very Successful
Meeting.
GATHERINGS OF VOLUNTEERS
Many Social Events Planned for the
Entertainment Of Old Soldiers
and Their Wives.

MINNEAPOLIS, Minn., August 13-Vet-
Grams by the thousands, other visitors by
the hundred thousands, are In Minneapolis
to attend the fortieth annual encampment
Of the Grand Army Of the Republic which
began today and Is to continue throughout
the week. Despite the fact that the SOL
diers are so rapidly lessening in numbers,
the encampment promises to be one of
the most successful ever held. Aside from
the encampment itself there will be annual
meetings of the many affiliated societies,
such as the Woman's Relief Corps, Ladies
of the Grand Army, Daughters Of Veterans
and an almost infinite number of military
organizations. The social events, planned
for the entertained Of the old soldiers
and their wives, are many and elaborate.
The first reunion of the day was that of
the LIST Minnesota Volunteers. which, its
survivors say, was the first body of men to
offer its services in the civil war. The
veterans met at the Soldiers Home near
Minnehaha Falls, and there were present
about one-half as many men as the regi-
ment lost in ten minutes at Gettysburg.
The 18th Wisconsin also met during the
day. and the first sessions of the Womans
Relief Corps was held in Wesley Church.
Tonight the chief social events will be
the reception in honor Of the Daughters of
the American Revolution at the home Of
Mrs. H. H. Kimball and q similar event
rendered by the st. Paul posts of the Grand
Army to Commander Tanner at the state
capitol. A great patriotic concert Is also to
be given In the auditorium.
The political aspect has been very mild
thus far. as none of the candidates for the
honor Of being the next commander Of the
organization has arrived.
The leading candidates are Capt. p. H.
Coney Of Topeka, Kans.; r. B. Brown of
GAINESVILLE. Ohio, and Charles g. Burton of
Missouri. There Is no contest for any Of
the lesser offices.

Elections.
FOR FORTHCOMING DUMA
Constitutional Democrats Getting
Severe Setback.
REACTIONISTS COMING TO FRONT
A Radical Change in the Russian
Situation Among Former Social
Democratic Workers.
Constitutional Democrats Getting
Severe Setback.
REACTIONISTS COMING TO FRONT

ST. PETERSBURG. August 13.-The gov
ernment attaches much importance to the
defeat of the constitutional democrats in the
Zemstvo elections now under way. For
years the provincial zemstvos have been the
centers of the liberal movement, and prac-
tically all the constitutional democratic
leaders have been prominent in zemstvo
work.
Now. as candidates for reelection, they
are going down to defeat. NJ Kakoshene,
next to NJ. Roditcheff. the most brilliant Of
the constitutional democratic orators In the
outlawed parliament. has been defeated by
Count Sheremetieff. the notorious reaction
ary, and yesterday two constitutional demo-
Gratis were defeated at Samara.
While these results certainly indicate a re-
action of sentiment against the advanced
program of the constitutional democrats. it
should also be pointed out that the nobility
and landed proprietors have the dominant
influence in the Zemstvo elections, and the
defeat of the constitutional democrats prob
ably represents more their hostility to the
principle of the forced appropriation of land,
to which the constitutional democrats are
committed. than enmity toward the purely
political part of their program Neverthe-
less, the important landed interests, reac-
tionary and liberal are uniting and lining
up In favor of the governments as against
the parliaments agrarian program.
There are strong reasons to believe that 1t
is the intention of the StOypin ministry, If
things move normally to support the candi-
dates of the regenerationists, who are eX-
pected to amalgamate with the Octoberists,
whether the co-operation of the right wing
of the constitutional democrats is secured
not.
A significant symptom of the radical
change in the situation produced by the mis-
cradle failure of the general strike is the
fact that the majority of the social demo-
cratic leaders. who fortnight ago were Its
most active promoters, are now in favor of
turning their attention to the coming cleo
tions, and have already begun to canvass
the situation for their candidates.
The first issue of the Poniedielnik, whose
motto is Labor and Liberty was confis-
Gated today.

4 STRUCK BY BULLETS
ACT OF PROBABLY INSANE MAN
AT CoNEY ISLAND.

NEW YORK, August 13.-While Oceanic
Walk, in the Bowery at Coney Island, was
still crowded early today an unidentified
n an pulled a revolver, fired two shots into
the back of waiter at Stauch's restaurant
and then turned the weapon into the crowd
and fired four times as quickly as he could
pull the trigger. Four persons were wrlth-
ing in agony on the board walk when the
man fed toward the ocean, threatening any
person who would pursue him. The injured.
three of whom may die, are:
Thomas Fitzpatrick, twenty-five years,
21S East 14th street, Brooklyn, shot In the
breast and side; may die.
Thomas Mcdonald, nineteen years, 106
Conners street. Newark, N. j.. shot in
back; may die.
Annie Smith, twenty years, 293 Eckford
street, Williamsburg, shot in thigh and
leg; serious.
street and Railroad avenue, Coney Island,
shot In back; may die.
At the time of the shooting crowd was
pouring from the restaurant. In the throng
were many women. At the sounds Of the
shots and scream of a woman who wit
directions.
AS they fed the man deliberately turned
the weapon toward them, and as fast as he
could pull the trigger fired the leaden mes
sengers into their backs. AS shot after shot
rang out, and the men and women fell to
the walks screaming, a panic broke out.
Women were thrown to the walk as men
ran over them in an effort to reach a place
Of safety. The stranger defied any one to
follow him. He had the revolver in his right
hand and shouted:
THE man who follows me will kill"
No one ventured to approach him then.
He jumped over a railing and vanished
In the direction of the ocean. Fully 10000
persons stood at the entrance to the Bow
cry, and from them swelled cry that the
murderer must be lynched. They broke
down all police barriers and forced their
way to the Bowery and overran the ply
sicians whom the police had summoned.
Then>down on the sands in the direction
which the assassin took the crowd poured.
Every avenue of escape was closed It WIS
generally understood, through the advice of
a ringleader. self-elected, that the man who
fired the shots should be hanged from a
pole in Surf avenue.
The already excited crowd accepted the
Idea with satisfaction, and led by the police.
every nook and Granny of the place was
searched. Capt. Harkins, in charge of the
Coney Island police station, quickly strung
out long line Of men along the ocean
front. He had the exits guarded as far as
Brighton Beach, and at every terminal of
the island men searched for man dressed
IN dark suit of clothes and wearing a
Fedora shaped straw hat He was described
as being short and smooth shaved. Two
strong searchlights were playing on the
beach early today to assist the search. and
thousands were aiding the authorities In a
search for the assassin.
