Esch Men Active.

Friends of Congressman John j.
Escl were much in evidence yester-
day. They have been exceedingly
active and display an enthusiasm wh.cA
appears to be born OF confidence n
the result. Neither Mr. Esch nor
Senator Thomas Morris, his manager,
could be induced to talk about the
support Mr.. Esch is to receive. All
his friends who came down from tue
seventh district to assist with mis-
candidacy profess to be satisfied with
the prospects.
MIR. Cooper evidently is taking his
time looking over the situation. Il
has made no announcement but tle
activity of his friends and the rather
happy air of the congressman seems
to point to an, early announcement.
He visited among members of the
senate and the assembly during the
day and called at the headquarters OF
the other candidates.
Former Senator w. H. Hatten says
he is satisfied with the outlook, ar d
his chief lieutenant, w. H Dick.
while giving no figures, is confident
that Mr.. Hatten's candidacy is pro-
crossing as well as anyone could de-
sire.

EASY METHOD OF ADJUSTING
THE SITUATION.
LENROOT COMING BACK
Probability That He and Congressman
Cooper Will Formally Enter the
List Of enthusiastically Of
Election Could Be Laid Aside
Until May.
Madison. March A


With the coming of former Speaker
I. l. Lenroot, who is expected from
Superior today, all the candidates and
prospective candidates for the United
States senatorship will be ON the
skirmishing line, ready for the strug,
gle which may come early next week
al a caucus of the republican mem
bers of The legislature.
It is proposed to clear the legisla-
tive table of the senatorial question
and at the same time abide by the
opinion of the attorney general, by
deciding upon the republican nominee
at once and allowing the formality
of election to wait until the resigna-
ton of Senator Spooner takes effect
May l. The date of this proposed
caucus is not determined but this
plan is recognized as convenient
way of settling the senatorial ques-
tion, SO that the work of legislation
shall not be interfered with. Such a
caucus would have to be called by the
party chairman. w D. Conner.
1t is said that Mr.. Lenroot may an
nounce his candidacy shortly after his
arrival, and that Congressman Coop
er win also tell the legislators for
mally today that he is in the race
This would make the list of candi-
dates ex-senator Hatten, Congressman
Cooper and Esch, Congressman
Stephenson and eX-Speaker Lenroot
Mr. Lenroot will lead at the begin
ming of the voting, his friends say
with perhaps forty votes, but whether
he would be able to get the other doz-
en- necessary, and to whom his fol-
lowers would turn in breaking are the
two big questions of the situation
Stephenson in the Assembly.
Isaac Stephenson visited in the as
sembly chamber yesterday and was
given a cordial reception. Immediate
ly after the assembly adjourned mem
bers from all parts of the chamber
came and gathered around him to
shake hands and many of them to
wish him good luck. The gathering
was altogether informal in nature A
kindly. respectful attitude was notice
able. among democrats and repubi-
cans alike. Assemblyman Leroy
escorted Mr. Stephenson about and IN
troduced him.
Friends OF Mr.. Lenroot are as con-
ffdent of his election as they were
several days ago. Friends OF some
of the other candidates now profess
to believe that the Lenroot campaign
has struck twelve. Mr. Lenroot's
friends, however, scout that idea and
insist that if Mr.. Lenroot is not nom
mated in the republican caucus he
will at least be a powerful element in
naming the man who is to be senat-

RETAIL CLERKS

Numbers Take No Interest
in Proposed Union

Local retail clerks employed in the
various stores of the city failed to or
game yesterday evening meeting
was held at labor temple for the pur-
pose but a sufficient number with
which to effect an organization was not
present. NJ. E. Cutting .lad the meet

Mr. Cutting said today an organiza-
ton would be effected at some future
date. When asked, now many were
present last night he said he did not
know. He gave the same answer when
asked what firms were represented.
1t is believed the employees OF the
various establishments of the city are
not in favor of organization. Clerks
employed in four of the largest stores
in the city, when seen today. said they
were not in favor of the plan. They
said the compensation paid by their
employers was satisfactory for the
work expected. Some of the men adj
Vanced the idea that during the mar
vest season it was absolutely neces-
sary to keep the stores open a little
longer than during the remainder Of
the season. Farmers are compelled to
get their supplies many times after 8
O'Clock in the evening and on Sundays
Apparently small interest has been
aroused in the project.

HARD Fight WITH ALLIGATOR.
Bio Saurian Nearly Capszes Launch
Which Is Badly Wrecked


MIAMI. Fla. March 26.-Russell CT.
Knight OF Point Pleasant. y. j., had an
experience with monster alligator
which he will long remember as one
of the narrOweSt escapes OF his life.
Mr.. Knight chartered a small aux
iliary'' and crew last Wednesday and
started early for a favorite fishing
ground in the lee of some of the small
er keys just outside the Bay of Bis
cayne. After some hours of sport one
of the crew sighted huge alligator
close to the shore.
Fishing was discontinued and the
boat put about and headed for the ALI
gator The latter showed fight imme-
diately, and. with his tail. began TO
lash the water into spunle. Mr.. Knight
took several shots with his rifle, but
with no apparent effect. Suddenly the
alligator made for the boat. Several
times he swung his powerful tail and
all but capSiZed the craft. Finally one
of the boatmen succeeded in catching
the Jaw of the saurian with the boat
hook and lifting the head out of the
water so that Mr.. Knight could shoot
between the eyes.
Before receiving the death wound,
however the saurian swung his tail,
breaking off the propeller and rudder
as if they had been jackstraws. The
alligator. which was shown b. meas
trement to be over nine feet in length.
was hoisted aboard the little craft
and with the aid of jury rudder and
under SAIL loaded TO the gunwales. the
hotel dock was reached in safety.

ADVOCATES MUNICIPAL BANK.
Mayor of Philadelphia Sends Message
to Council Favorina Plan.

PHlLA DELPHlA. Pa. March b
Mayor John Weaver came out
strongly for municipal ownership in 4
message today TO the council in which
he advocated the establishment OF a
municipal bank from which politics is
to be eliminated. The message was the
result of the mayors failure TO nego-
tiate more than S125.000 at par of the
$5.000,000 portion for municipal i'm
rrovements of recently authorized
S13. 500 900 loan
The establishment of such bank
as that proposed by Mayor Weaver
would withdraw from the city banks
from $13.OO0OOO to $o0.O00.O00 each
year. The city gets only two per cent
interest. SO the reason for the Objec-
ton of the banking interests may be
readily seen. Mayor Weaver in his
message points out that while the city
gets only two per cent the banks in
which the money is deposited loan the
same money at a six per cent rate.
The message was not debatable. but
was shelved by the council without
formal comment.

FOUND DEAD IN BATH TUB
Portland Man Makes Awful Dis
Govern Of Wife'S Fate

PORTLAND. Mich. 26.-Mrs. c. ].
Pennicard was found dead in a bath
tub at the family residence, East For
ty-iirst and Clinton streets. Death
is supposed to have been due 10 heart
failure caused by pleurisy, with which
Mrs. Pennicard had been suffering for
the past three weeks.
Mrs. Pennicard was found by Mr..
Pennicard, who had left the house but
a short time before to go on an errand
for her. He had been gone only about
10 or 20 minutes. and upon his return
was Mortified to find her lyinng dead in
the bathtub.
Mrs. Pennicard had been sufferer
years. and because of her ailment the
family removed from Butte. Montana
about Is months ago to Portland. Her
health improved after coming to this
city, until about three weeks ago. when
she suffered an attack of pleurisy. II
is supposed that the attack of heart
trouble that resulted in her death was
caused by the attack of pleurisy with
which she had been suffering.
Upon the discovery of Mrs. Penni-
card in the bathroom. DR.. Percy Wiley
was summoned. but he could do moth
ing for the woman. He was satisfied
that death resulted from natural causes
and because OF his statement no in
quest will be held by Coroner Finley

afternoon, in reply to question as to
what had been his first hand observa-
tons during his recent trip as to the
possibility of financial panic in the
east.
Mr. ELAN said he had been interested
enough in this very question to ask
bankers in all the large eastern cities
he had visited and while few of them
were pessimistic most of them thought
there was little pro5pec, of a coming
financial depression.
1T is true" said Mr.. ELAN. that the
interest rate on money has risen
somewhat This is true all over the
country. In ST. Louis for instance it
is now six per cent while it was five
per cent a short time ago. 1t has risen
the same out here and there is little I
per cent money here now.
But l think tEis is sign of pros
perity rather than the reverse. 1t shows
there is greater demand for capital

on the railroad strike and Taft en-
