services were simple and were con-
Quoted by Rev. j. T. Bergen, of West
minister Presbyterian church.
The interment was private, and after
the Presbyterian comnital services had
been performed the body of the late
Senator Allison was lowered into its
last resting place in the family lot in
Linwood cemetery. All Dubuque paid

CALLED TO MEET

sultation with Attorney General Byers,
the committee yesterday afternoon
named September 9 as the date for the
state convention to- nominate sue
cessor to Judge Bishop to fill vacancy,
for the county conventions which are
to be made up of the delegates selected
under the primary held June 2.
BY unanimous vote the committee Sc
lected Colonel Charles A. Clark, Of
Cedar Rapids, as temporary chairman
OF the convention.
Clark for Chairman.
Colonel Clark has been esteemed one
of the leaders OF the bar of the state
for many years and as the state con-
vention is called for the purpose Of
nominating a candidate for supreme
judge it was regarded as especially
fitting to select Colonel Clark as the
temporary chairman.
He, himself, was conspicuously mem
toned in connection with the appoint
ment to fill the vacancy when it was
thought that course could be pursued
and afterwards was proposed as a cam
didate before the state convention. Re-
Gently, however, he authorized the
statement that he would not be can
didate before the convention.
1t is anticipated that the lawyers Of
the state will take a very lively inter-
est in the make up of the. different
county delegations for the state con-
lawyers will be found in that conven-
ton than have sat in a similar gather
Ing for many years.

vention
