FEAR OF A CAUCUS
Senatorial Candidates at Madison
do Not all Favor Holding a
Joint Caucus
OPPOSED TO LENR00Ts IDEA

The proposition advanced by Irvine
L. Lenroot, that the supporters of the
so-ca1led 'Half-breed'' candidates for
the United States senate hold joint
caucus and choose one of their mum
Der who shall be the choice Of the
entire caucus, then go into caucus of
all the Republicans and stand firmly
by that man, and then carry the same
tactics out in the joint convention Of
the senate and assembly, seems
doomed to failure.
1t appears that Isaac Stephenson
and w. Fl. Hatten have tacitly agreed
to that program, but that Congress
man Esch and Congressman Cooper
declined to enter into such plan. !,
Attempts are being made cow to
call conference Of all the canG dates
for the purpose of determining upon
the time for commencing the ballot
ing. It is the general impression that
the Legislature would be perfectly safe
in starting balloting at any time and
settle definitely upon successor to
John G. Spooner, despite the opinion
of Attorney General Gilbert that the
proper mode of procedure requires the
Legislature to wait until May IA be-
fore voting.
| It is pointed out that the senatorial
contest is utterly demoralizing to leg
islative work, placing in jeopardy
some of the most important bills
which have been up for consideration
before any legislature in the past gen.
GRAFTON; namely, the insurance and
the public utility bills. There is al
ready an uneasiness about these
measures on the part Of leading mem
bers, but no progress can be made in
giving the bills deliberate considera-
ton while the senatorial contest is
impending.
There is a feeling of caution and
almost distrust on the part of the
candidates to even hold~a conference
to determine the simple. matter of
when to start balloting, fearing that
an attempt will be made to stampede
then into the wheel-within-a
plan Of settling upon candidate, q
program obviously calculated to clothe
Lenroot with the toga, it is said.

Haynes and CIauSen Seek to Re-
cover Damages for Securing
Railway Franchise
FROST NAMED AS DEFENDANT
Summons in the Suit Is Served on the
Company's Attorney, But Is Not
Filed in the Office of the Cir
cult Court

The old fight over the Haynes
Clausen railway ordinance is to be
revived as it leaked out this morning
that summons had been served on the
attorney for the Kenosha Electric
Railway Company in which Patrick
L. Haynes, Gustav L. C1ausen and
Arthur Einstein are the plaintiffs
and the Kenosha Electric Railway and
B. ]. Arnold, the defendants. The
summons states that the action is
brought in the Circuit Court for
Kenosha county, but an examination
of the records of the Circuit Court
fails to show that such an action has
been filed In the court. An answer in
the case on the part Of the Kenosha
Electric Railway Company has been
prepared, but it has not been served.
The plaintiffs in the action seek to
recover the value of bonds to the am
cunt of thirty thousand dollars
alleged to have been delivered to
them by the defendants as compens-
alton for securing franchise through
Kenosha and the defendant Arnold
has declined to pay the bonds on ac-
count of the fact that the franchise
secured by Haynes and C1ausen was
declared null and void by the SUI
preme Court of Wisconsin many years
ago.
1t is the old Haynes and Clausen
fight and the only new feature is the
fact that the Kenosna Electric Rail-
way Company now under new man
agement is named with Mr. Arnold as
defendant and the officials of the
Kenosha Electric Railway Company
are the only defendants that have
been served with copy of the, sum-
mons and complaint in the case.
The matter has been threshed out
in the Circuit Court and in the United
States Supreme Court and every court
has decided against the railway pro-
motors. C1ausen, one of the plain
tiffs, has never come to Kenosha to
assert his rights and it is alleged
that his absence was due to the fact
that he feared arrest on a serious
charge if he crossed the WISCONSIN
border. The attorneys for the )liti.
giants fought the case out in the
United States Supreme Court I'M the
eastern district Of Wisconsin last No.
vember and the action was dismissed
at the cost of the plaintiffs. 1t Isl adj
mitted that Haynes and C1ausen Sc
cured $4,000 in cash from Arnold and
they we're to have divided the value
of the bonds, but when it was found
that the franchise was invalid a new
company was formed and the bonds
issued to Haynes and Clauseh were
repudiated. The attorneys do not
think that the case will, elver be
brought to trial. In the meantime
the warrant for the arrest of Clauser
is resting in the archives of the sher,
iff, and his appearance in 1Kenosha
might result in the opening Of the
famous bribery cases.

{. H. Lemen, Of Garden. Nebraska,
Met an Unusual Death in
Kenosha Thursday
FALLS ON STAIRS AT STATION
Awakened From Deep Sleep, Well
Known Stock Man Falls Down
Steps Into Subway at the
Northwestern Depot

T.. H. Lemen, a man fifty-five years
of age and said to be well known
stock raiser at Garden, Neb., met an
awful death in Kenosha Thursday,
when he fell down the stone steps at
the Northwestern railway station and
died three hours later at the Kenosha
hospital. Death was caused by the
mans chest being crushed.
Lemen was very tired when he
reached here with his car Of stock and
he went sinto the ladies apartment at
the Northwestern depot and sat down
in one of3gthe big rocking chairs to
rest. Hes continued to sleep during
the night.andssthe operator, knowing
him, didsnot disturb him. Steele had
come to Kenoshasat an early hour that
mornings and gone to the station to
look oversthe horses and prepare for
unloading them. He went to the sta
ton and found Lemen doing in the
chair and wakened him and then left
the room:to go over tolthe car. Lemen
got up fewEminutes later and started
to go downethe steps into the subway
to reachDsthe car which was on the
west side of the platform. It is
thought that being only partially
awake he 1ostGhis balance and fell the
full length ofsthe stairway.
He was Ediscovered few minutes
later aud an ambulance called. He
was unconscious when picked up and
he was hurried to the KenOsha Hospi-
tai and DR.. Robinson was called to at
tend him. e Lemen was badly bruised
about the head and face and his chest
was crushed. Several Of the ribs
we're broken. Once before he died
the iniuredsEman Ebecame partially
conscious. ssbut he could give no ac-
count ofRthe accident and only stated
that he was suffering great pain. He
died just after eight O'Clock. The re-
mains were removed to the Hansen
morgue where an inquest was held.
Lemen was slightly known in Ke-
nosha, but this was the first trip that
he had made to the city. 1t is stated
that he is man with wife and
children, and that he was highly
respected in his home in Nebraska.
On account Of the fact that the
accident occurred very early in the
morning, there we're no people in the
depot who Witnessed the fall of the
old man. The operator was at work
in the office, put he could not see
Lemen as he started on his trip, which
proved fatal one. The relatives al
Garden have been notified Of the
death Of Lemen, and the remains
were taken there for burial.
