Mason City. June 21.-Mayor Nc
Conlogue came back with a vigorous
message to the people of this city and
vicinity, today, over the incident with
which he is connected, and in which he
caused to be wired message to the
Milwaukee business men who were to
pass thru the city relative to the dis
persing of beer al this point, and who
answered by telling the mayor to GO
to HI" The telegram of the mayor
has been the subject of considerable
discussion and no little criticism. and
the mayor has handed his critics few
warm compliments with reference Sto
the matter. He first alluded to the
source of his information as to the
amount of beer the famous ones" car
ried. which he said was reliable, say
ing he wanted to warn them to make
them acquainted with local conditions
and then said:
Il wanted to have it understood that
l would not favor a delegation of rich
merchants and iobbers, having large
quantities of liquor for drinking pur-
poses. hand out their drink any more
than / would delegation of poor la
boring men. 1t is strange that our
citizens think that the liquor laws
should be enforced only against the
laboring man and the humble in life.
l had nothing to do with the making
of such laws, in fact l never voted for
man who assisted in putting such
laws upon our statute books. But
when 1 took the office of mayor of this
city. there was no mental reservation
that the law as | found it should not
be upheld, and the man who wears
diamonds would not be permitted to
violate it with impunity, while the
man without money and friends should
be compelled to suffer its rigorous con-
sequences"
The mayor then spoke of the Gus
tom of Japan where the shoes are re-
moved from the feet when visitor en-
tiers the house. and the fact. that he
who neglects this custom is not a gen.
tleman, and then made it's application
for the stranger who visits Iowa, as
follows:
N"The sojourner in Iowa is expected
to observe the customs of good society
here. and leave his drinking proclivi-,
ties and his connival habits which are
not sanctioned by the laws of the state
outside the borders. and conduct him
self as demanded by the laws sane
toned by majority of the people.
What a--+howl would have gone up
if the mayor should have allowed
lot of brakemen engine wipers, and sec
ton men to have a box car in the yards
of the Milwaukee with lots of beer for
their personal enjoyment and personal
distribution. These railroad men are
Just as much entitled to do this as are
the men who wear fine clothes and
have large bank accounts"

ployes. He did not mind this SO
much, but when his family began to
complain of the treatment of the
neighbors he began to brood over it
till finally he lost his reason. It is
not thought that his condition, is crit

weeks of rest will restore his mental
faculties.
Dubuque.
Dubuque has a violin maker who
has the distinction of making an In
strument which will do service for a
German musician at Leipsic, Germany.
The instrument, made by r. A. Fuller,
whose factory is at Seventeenth and
Clay street, is valued at $3.50 and il:
now enroute to the foreign land. The
fact of exporting violin of American
make to Germany Is of more than
passing interest, when it is taken into
considera ton that Germany is the
home Of the violin industry and the
merits Of the Dubuque article are best
attested by the fact that the German
professor comes here for his favorite
instrument.

Unknown Fiend Responsible For
Pisgah Tragedy, in Which
Four Lost Lives
OIL COMPANY NOT TO BLAME
One Hundred and Fifty six Barrels Of
Oil Were Drawn From tho Same
Tank a. the One Containing the Ex-
pIosive-officers Unable to Solve the
Mystery.
Special to Times-Republican.

\
Council Bluffs, June 21.-State Oil
Inspector H. Nj. Pickle, Of Des MONIES.
and Deputy Inspector c. B. Cousins OF
this city, were in the city today, having
returned from Pisgah. where they had
been investigating the deaths of Mrs.
Lee Chapman and her three children
recently, as result Of the explosion
of oil supposed to be kerosene.
The officers are no nearer q solution
of the mystery than before, tho now
thoroughly convinced that some ex-
plosivs was placed in the oil deliberate
ly, by some tieud. The matter has
been under investigation for more than
two weeks and by officials from doz-
en- cities. The tests. made more than
fifty times and by four or five oil In
spectols in the employ of the govern
ment, as we'll az others employed by
the Standard OH Company, have sat
isfied the officers that the oil sold
Mrs. Chapman for kerosene, was about
one-f1fth gasoline and the remainder
kerosene. How the oils became mixed
Is the mystery, but the investigation
will not be abandoned.
With County Attorney Smith, of
Harrison county, the inspectors went
to Sioux City. from which place the Oil
was shipped to the merchant at Pisgah,
where they visited the distributing
plant Of the Standard Oil Company for
the purpose of determining whether
there was any blame to be attached to
the company. Smith, after a thorough
investigation, was convinced that the
error could not have been made there;
that the oils were SO arranged there
that nothing but deliberate action and
considerable Inconvenience could have
placed the gasoline in the barrel con-
tanning; the kerosene.
It appears that l4s barrels of oil
were drawn from the tank from which
this barrel was taken, aud no co olaint
has been heard from any Of re-
naming 14S barrels.
The tragedy has every appe snce
OF a tliabolical murder. Possib the
person who placed the explosive the
barrel Of kerosene, II that was The
mode Of mixing the oils, did not 1op
to consider the possible awful co =
quences Of his act. That others were
not killed in the same manner is mere
! ~ matter Of luck, pure and simple
for a number OF others who had
bought oil from this barrel reported the
oil acted queerly. but not other explo-
sions occurred.

CORN POOR AROUND UTE
Only About One Farmer in Ten Has

made crops look much better, and
small grain is quite satisfactory. but
the corn fields are not. This part of
Iowa has not over two thirds Of a
stand of corn on the ground, and most
of that is not over four inches high,
Because Of the dry weather in May,
the farmers planted their corn very
deep, in order to reach moisture, and
the recent cold rains of two weeks,
during the latter part of May and be-
ginning of June, rotted great deal of
the seed. About one farmer in ten has
a good stand
