1000 PEOPLE
Have BAD PAIN
Epidemic Of Tummy Ache Is
Raging in MankatO From
Bad Water

st. Paul, MINI, June 27.-A spec
ial to the Pioneer Press from Man
kato, Mimi, says that an epidemic
Of stomach and bowel trouble swept
over the city last night as a result
of recent storms, and that today 1000
people were i'll. None OF the attacks
were dangerous, hut the epidemic
is so widespread that business was
greatly interfered with. Factories
and other large establishments had
but portion Of their working fore
es on hand today, many of the en-
ployes being confined to their houses.
Health Officer Bjelland sent samp-
les of the city water, which is OBJ
tanned from artesian wells, 600 feet
below the surface, to the state uni
versity at Minneapolis for examina-
ton. It is feared by some that the
water which accumulated on the sur
face during the recent storms became
mixed with the artesian supply, but
most of the city officials think this
impossible.
The health officer says that wet
cellars, damp houses and the great
humidity of the air have not only re-
suited in an increase of disease
spreading germs, but have also tend
ed to make. the inhabitants of the
town susceptible to the diseases.

but he did not bring it. IF
II talked with Mr.. Bryan about
the platform" he said, .tbut that is
all. 1t is not drawn up so far as
/ know, at least not in definite form.
There is no mystery about the plat
form which will be adopted by the
Democratic convention. It is gener-
ally understood on what sort Of a
platform Mr.. Bryan is willing to
stand, and the public knows as
much about it as I do
When asked whether an ''injunc-
ton" plank would be inserted in the
platform; Mayor Dahlman admitted
that in this respect the platform OF
the coming convention would probab-
" differ from former Bryan plat.
form. He declared, however, thai
nothing as yet had been determined
in this respect and that in all prob
ability the entire matter would
await the probable visit of a number
of men prominent in the labor move
ment to Mr.. Bryan at his home II
Lincoln. This conference he said
might be held in the early part o.
next week.

TRAVAIL
After Three Score Ballots
North Carolina DemS Nom
mate a Governor

Charlotte, N. c., June 27.-Accom-
panied by riotous demonstration,
the. deadlock in the Democratic state
convention over the nomination for
governor of North Carolina, was
broken tonight by the selection of
Representative VIM. Walton Kitchin
of Roxboro, who for six terms has
represented the Fifth district in con-
gress. The nomination was effected
after three score ballots had been
cast in the four days contest. Kit
chin's majority was sixty. Kitchin,
Locke Craig of Buncombe county,
and Col. Ashley Horne of Johnston
county, were candidates. Horn
withdrew after the announcement Of
the fifty-ninth ballot and with the
votes then thrown to Kitchin the
contest was over. Great excitement
prevailed before it was made unani-
nous and the chairman had difficulty
in restoring quietness.

strongly favored former Representa-
tive Bell and Representative Clayton

and permanent chairmanships, and
while he was not particular as to
which man held either position he
believed that they should, between
them, preside over all the delibera-

thousand dollar fire this evening de-
stroyed the business portion of Tay-

and killed W. w. Brookings, clerk
in DR.. Henning's drug store, where a
fatal explosion took place.
The proprietor was badly bruised,
but made his escape from a window.
The fire spread west, burning the
Spring Valley Land company's office,
and to the Joseph F. Christen store
and the public hall. The drug store
contained a $15,000-dollar stock and
was destroyed in a few minutes. The
Christen store contained a $2,000-dol.
lar stock, insured for $500.
East OF the drug store was the big
Baker & Son store, in the brick We
neered bank and postoffice building.
The store contained s20,000-dollar
stpck. Very little was saved. The
books Of the Taylor State bank and
money and other contents Of the vault
were taken out; also everything in
the postoffice. The village had abso-
lute1y no fire protection and the resi-
dents soon became panic stricken.
The Dickinson fire department was
taken down on special by the rail
road, and by stationing men on roofs
Of buildings across the street saved
many residences; also the big Baker
hotel.
/ The body Of Brookings could not
be taken from the drug store where
he fell. He was 40 years old, single
and resident of the county for
twenty years. The cause of the ex-
plosion is not known. The property
burned is insured for about so per
cent Of its value.

OF the Building Department. Thus far
he said, his investigation has not justi-
fed him in reaching such a conclusion.
In the opinion of Commissioner West
there is no available fund from which
may be paid the expenses Of a com
mission appointed by the President TO
investigate the Building Department
as recommended by the COroner's jury.
The President, IL Is understood. has
said that he will not appoint such a
commission until he has asCertained
that an appropriation exists from which
TO pay the members for their work. In
this event, the Commissioners may
themselves conduct an investigation as
they did following the collapse OF the

The erection of a pumping station on

ponds upon the outcome OF the office

that only one will be recommended in

REICHSTAG TO CURB
POWER OF EMPEROR
Three Distinct Propositions
Made-No Bitterness
Against Ruler.

BERLIN. Dec. 2.-Three separate and
distinct propositions TO curb the power
OF the Kaiser and incidentally secure
to the German people real consutu-
tional government, were offered when
the reichstag met today.
The socialists suggested that the
Kaiser be deprived Of all power to de-
clare war without the consent OF both
the federal council and the Teichstag,
also making the chancellor responsible
for everything that the Kaiser says or
does. Should the chancellor fail in his
duty, or should he permit the Kaiser to
involve the nation in a position OF dis
credit. he is TO be liable to prosecution
in the criminal courts.
The liberals in the reichsag make
similar demands, although they are
clothed In more diplomatic language:
and are modified a trihe In 50 far as
they refer to the criminal prosecution
Of the chancellor.
The Centerists demand that the con
stitutional responsibility of the chanceI-
Tor be clearly defined 50 that there can
be no recurrence Of the recent troubles.
where ne dlsClaimed responsibility for
the public utteranCes of the Kaiser.
The great surprise Of the debate was
the mild tone of the orators when they
discussed the Kaiser
The recent scenes, when the socialists
ana the liberals yehemently denounced
MN, We're remembered by all concerned
and il was plain shat the agreement
that there was TO be no repetition, was
20 be lived up TO.
All Of those who participated IN the
debate showed a disposition to handle
their ruler with gloves, and the express
sions Of the men who violently oppose
him were Of the mildest
Every orator made il plain that no
affTOnt was meant to the ruler but that
they believed the time had come when
il was necessary TO absolutely define
the constitutional line beyond which the
Kaiser Is not to be permitted to go.
