FOUL PLAY RUMORED
Circumstances Under Which Little
Freddie BeardsIey Drowned Near
Leeds, Seem suspicious-No Clue to
the Mystery,

Special to Times -Republican.
Sioux City, June 22.-There is now a
strong suspicion among the residents
of the suburb OF Leeds that foul play
Freddie Beardsley, the 6-year-old son
of Mr. and Mrs. Cal Beardsley, We'd
nesday afternoon in the old channel Of
the Floyd river, about four blocks
east of the mill. The child in company
with Harry Tower, the Swear old son
of c.. II. Tower an employe of the
Cudahy Packing Company, during the
afternoon went to the channel to fish.
and about 5 O'clock the Tower boy re-
turned alone, telling his mother than he
had left Freddie on the bank fishing.
He explained that he told him to come
mother. but that he refused, stating
that he wanted to fish longer. That
was the last seen of the boy.
When he did not return home at
o'clock Mrs. Beardsey became worried
and a searching party was organized
to look for the little fellow. Patrolman
Luce led the searching party, but they
failed to find ary trace of him. The
father, who, in the meantime, had been
notified of the disappearance of his son,
arrived on the scene, and with d rake
went to the river bed to drag for the
body The prongs caught the little
body and as it raised to the surface
the father fell back in a dead faint,
while others quickly seized the life
less form and placed it on the bank.
The body was naked but on the bank
was the lads jacket, while floating
about in the >river We're the rest of his
garments That the water in which
he was drowned is nearly stasnant and
that the body was found eighty rods
from the place where the Tower boy
left him fishing, and that part of his
clothes were on the bank while Other
pieces were founc in the water, are the
incidents in the case which the resi-
dents of Leeds point to as mysterious,
and upon which they base the hints of
foul play. The water in the channel is
about three to four feet deep.
Coroner J. III. F.obbins was notified
and he made all investigation, but
there was not enough evidence to war
rant him holding an inquest over the
remains. He admits that the drowning
was peculiar, but states as his opinion
that it was possible that the clothes
were blown into the river by the wind.

Grundy Republicans Disqusted.

Special to Times Republican.
.Reinbeck, June 22.-The following
from the Reinbeck Courier of the 22nd
inst effectually disposes of the ridic-
ulous story in regard to Irregularities
in the Grundy county caucuses. After
quoting the story sent out from Des
Moines, and published in all the stand
pat dailies, the Courier says:
The above dispatch which was print
ed in the Waterloo Reporter of We'd
nesday evening is very misleading so
far as it concerns Grundy county, and
does the republicans of this county
gross injustice. There is not one word
of truth in it so far as we are able to
learn. There was not a caucus held in
Grundy county this year where the
Cummins-Perkins fight was made the
issue. There We're a few hotly fought
caucuses. but the fight in every in
stance was made by the friends of the
various candidates for county offices
to secure the delegation for this or
that candidate.
"The Cummins sentiment in Grundy
county this year has been largely in
the majority and while there were
doubtless many Perkins or anti Cum
minis voters in the county, they felt
that they were in a hopeless minority
and therefore very sensibly laid
down.
"The delegates to the county conven-
ton were made up of representative
republicans, irrespective of either of
the factions to which they might be-
long and the convention was very
harmonious indeed.
1T is just such rot as the above
misleading special from Des Moines
that is doing the candidacy of Mr..
Perkins more injury than any other
one thing. excepting possibly the very
questionable methods of the notorious
Ed Hunter in his efforts to defeat
Governor Cummins.
$50 far as the Grundy county cau-
cuses were concerned they We're regu-
larly called and were conducted in
fair and impartial manner, we believe
in every township and while the Cum
Minis faction may have used every pre-
caution to keep the reins in their own
hands we believe in giving the devil
his DUE and we believe their methods
were honorable and fair"
The Courier is not now and has not
at any time been a partisan of Gov
ernor Cummins but has been neutral
with leaning toward Perkins or
Rathbun. 1t should also be said that
the editor of the Courier was a deles
gate to the county convention and was
temporary and permanent secretary of
that body Twelve out Of fourteen of
the committee on resolutions which
was composed of one member from

Toledo June 22-rhe attention of
Your correspondents has been called to
the following article in the Cedar Rap
ids Republican regarding the irregu-
larities in the primary choosing dele
gates TO the county convention held in
this city May 10:
"Des Moines June l9.-According TO
Mr.. Rathbun are investigating coudi-
lions in Grundy and Tama counties.
With a view of deciding in regard to a
contest in one or both of the counties.
III is understood that there We're many
irregularities in the caucuses and in
Tama county especially it is said that
Il large number of democrats voted in
the caucuses at Toledo. Ii is probable
if the reports concerning the. manner
in which the Cummins people ran
things in these counties prove to be
correct, contesting delegations Will be
sent to the state convention"
The writer of the dispatch quoted
ber of democrats voted in the eau
cuses at Toledo" The facts are that
no caucus was held in Toledo. For
more than twenty years the delegation
from Toledo township and city has
been elected or chosen at a primary
open from l to 6 p. M. and such was
the order this year. The article re-
ferred to is slanderously false. The
republicans of this township, regard
less OF their choice for governor, are
aroused. and rise up in protest at this
villainous attack on the orderloving,
fair-dealing people of this community.
and in the publicity of said call. Polls
were open from 1 to 6 p. M; 50 votes
were cast, Cummins received 79 votes.
Rathbun 5 votes. Perkins 1 vote.
The So voters are all we'll known re-
publicans. Not single democrat vot-
ed, and no exception was mat. at the
time nor at any time since, of the
manner in which the primary was con-
Quoted, or the politics of the voters.
A prominent citizen of our city made
the following statement today: THAT
he would give gold medal, inscribing
thereon the pictures of Leslie NJ. Shaw
and Ed Hunter, to any man that would
produce democrat that voted at the
Toledo primary selecting delegates to
the county convention" held May 10,
1906. Our people feel that this state
ment is due the people of Iowa, as well
as ourselves. in reply to the false
statements SO widely published.
