YOUNG FOR CHAIRMAN.
Mitchell County Senator Suggested for
Head OF State Committee.

Beloit, Kan, Aug. 17.-Both the Re-
publicans and Democrats OF Mitchell
county rounded up here Saturday
afternoon. That is, the two county
committees. The object of the meet
ing was to elect new chairmen and
secretaries, and talk over the matters
for the good of the respective parties.
The two organizations met in separate
rooms in the court house, at the same
hour. So far as known neither party
visited the other with any peaceful
mission. State Senator 1. d. Young
of the Jewell-Mitchell county district,
ed chairman of the Mitchell county
Republican committee, Leon Carter,
secretary. and ]. w. Robinson, treas
urer. The two former are square
dealers, while the latter is supposed
! to train with the other fellows. The
committee heartily endorsed Senator
Young for chairman of the state CON-
mittee. Young was a candidate for
congress to succeed Reeder, but some
how committee saw fit to withdraw
his name from the contest for the sake
of harmony, and allowing Ham 70 be
the only candidate against Reeder. NJ
Senator Young should win out in be-
I, ing elected chairman of the state COM
mittee his friends believe he will be
formidable candidate for congress two
years from now; that is, providing the
| square dealers remain in the saddle.
Senator Young voted for Ham in the
TeCeHl ciSCtlOI, anu II 40 nat
ural he should throw his strength to
Young for chairman of the state COM
mittee.
The Mitchell county Democratic
committee is entirely harmonious. j.
| c. Eresch was unanimously reelected
| chairman, and T. c. Rodgers, secre-
| tary and treasurer. Mr.. Eresch, who
| is recognized as being one of the
shrewd politicians in the county, pre-
! dicted the success of Bryan for presi-
l dent and claimed that if the partv In
Mitchell county would pull together
| the Democrats will elect the big ma
| jority of the county ticket Mr.
Eresch has filled the office of sheriff of
/ the county, and was one of the deie.
gates from the Sixth district to the

| nee for state senator in the jewell

Wall Street Is Disturbed by the
New Campaign
Inaugurated by the Boston
Broker and Financier.
HE FINDS IMITATORS.
Tips Sent Out to People Oi
Small Means.
Much Fear Felt That They will
Lose Their Money.

New York, Aug. 17.-Nothing in years
has excited such deep If suppressed
condemnation in financial and mercan-
tile circles in this city as the present
stock-jobbing. operation which Thomas
w. Lawson of Boston is endeavoring to
carry on. 1t is too early as yet to judge
how great harm will come to the pub
lie from Lawson's irresponsible appeal
for money, but the evil effects of his
advertising methods are already dis
tinctly visible.
For the Bostonian has had a host of
lmltators, and as a result New York
is afflicted with a pest of ''tipsters"
who are making the widest efforts to
stir up general gambling fever. The
newspapers and financial journals are
widely criticised for lending their COL
umns to these wildcat advertisements,
and there is considerable talk of asking
the Stock Exchange to see If some
means of prevention cannot be de-
vised.
Promises Of profits in stock specula-
ton as dazzling and impossible as the
dreams of the average mining pro-
moter are being spread broadcast. not
only by advertising, but by methods
which Wall street in it's most booming
days never heard of. Tipsters
emulating the Lawson claims of un-
telephone. During the last week an
| army of them have been calling UP
clerks and small salaried men who
have no financial knowledge and tell
ing they to buy this or that stock for
a rise.
To the same class of people posta
cards. each carefully written in PEN
! Gil, have been sent bearing similar
appeals. This work has been sup
| plemented by rumors started by talk
| with statesmen and women in tht
| wholesale and retail commercial dis
| tricts.
| AS a result more than one business
! man has expressed his fear that a per
! iod of rampant speculation may b'
started which would put an effectua
| crimp in the revival of prosperity
Financial men admit this possibility
and say, too. that the Lawson wild
| eating is obscuring the Legitimate
| functions of the stock exchange an(
threatening to bring that institution
| into public disrepute.

Pleasure Steamer on Carp Lake,
Mich, Wrecked by Explosion.
Many OF the Passengers Hurled
Into the Water.
ONE PERSON KILLED.
Two Fatally Injured and Sew.
eral Badly Hurt.
Some Were Scalded and a Dozen
Are Missing.

Traverse City, Mich. Aug. 17.-One
person Is known to be dead, dozen
or more are missing and supposed to
be drowned, two are fatally injured
and a number are seriously hurt, as
the result of the blowing up of the
steamer Leelanau on Carp lake today.
The steamer which plies between
the resorts on Carp lake was on the
way from Iceland to Fouche, on its
early morning trip. Between 80 and
40 passengers were on board. At 1880
the boiler of the steamer blew up,
hurting many into the lake, and scald-
ing others. The upper works were
entirely blown to pieces.
Following is a list of the dead and
injured:
The Dead:
MRS. ISABEL LABONTE, 35, Ira
verse City.
The Injured:
John Harlung. Leland. dying
Russell Mills, Ann Arbor, scalded;
condition critical.
Stanley Mills, Ann Arbor, scalded

scalded.

badly injured.
Ralph Hastings. city treasurer, ira
verse City, slightly injured.
Ten others are slightly hurt
carp lake lies in the northern Michi-
gan resort district, being located in the
peninsula between Lake Michigan and
Traverse bay Among the passengers
of the Lelanau were a number of re-
sorters from other states, but the lis,
OF casualties contains only the names
of Michigan people.
Having only aboard pleasure seekers
bound for Traverse City to attend g
wild west circus, the little steamer was
ploughing down the narrow lake with z
steam pressure of 80 pounds trying tc
make up the time that had been lost
in the early stages of the trip. As she
was passing the Bing, the engineer
discovered loose bolt in the engine
and shut off the steam to remedy the
defect. 1t was while he was workine
on the loose bolt that the explosion
occurred. The boiler gave away with
a crash, tearing off the top of the en-
gine and demolishing the pilot house
and the upper works of the steamer
but leaving Engineer Edward Hardy
unscathed by the havoc that swept be
fore him.
The force of the explosion had al
been directed forward. Mrs Labonts
sitting near the pilot house conversins
with her brother, Charles Moser, cap
tain of the boat, was blown far ou
into the water terribly mangled and
John Hartung. who was at the wheel
was probably fatally injured. All thos'
injured We're sitting in the forward
part of the boat. Many were thrown
into the water and clung to the wreck
age until rescued by farmers living
along the shore. although some were
able to swim to shore. The injured
were brought to Traverse City. TIL,
steamer was tied to a wharf for re
pairs. She is "a feet long with IL fee
| beam and was rebuilt last season.
