it was feared that bloodshed could not

And there you are.
Tammany has a fine big scare, but il
isn't about Gaynor. for Tammany would
be just beside itself with rapture if
somebody would give it a diagram of
a trading scheme by which it could
knife GaynOr and save the board Of es-
Innate. The scheme can't be figured
out at this writing. 1t would be so
vastly complicated and dangerous that
no organization would dare undertake

liable to lose everything else that We
do most want"
The usual noise has been made about
election frauds; and there is no doubt
that Tammany counts on frauds TO save
81 If necessary.
There is a fine row on because the
superintendent OF elections issued an
order that when anybOdy's right to vote
is attacked he shall first be allowed TO
vote and then arrest afterward.
That seems rather like the case Of
the municipal reformer who didn't want
to spend money improving the wafer
supply in order to stop a typhoid cpl
demic but was dead set on passing an
ordinance to compel the undertakers to
reduce the cost OF funerals
The Republican managers are trying
to get Governor Hughes to force d
change In that program.
To Prevent Fraud.
Chairman Parsons, Of the New York
county committee. said this afternoon
that the elaborate arrangements had
been made TO guard against frauds.
NO, / will not tell what they are,
he insisted, but they are thorough, and
it'n be a dangerous business to try TO
beat the ballot box this time.
The order of the election superinten-
dent has been explained and modified,
as TO plans for its execution, so that
the anti Tammany managers are pref
ty confident it viii do then no harm

many managers today declared that
none OF them had anything whatever to

which branded Gaynor as an apostle
from the Church, and divorced man.

likewise the Republican leaders de-
elared they We're not direct or indirectly
responsible for the circulation Of the
San Francisco Leader attacks on

Parsons final statement today is that

that Barnard win get $4,000, and
Hearst not over 10000.

RESERVE LIST.

According to a list given out by
Secretary Farrell of the National
Base Ball commission, Wausau has
reserved the following players for
next year: Pitchers Clarence Dunbar,
Nick Lakoff and f. A. Schieffer;
Catcher Chas. Johnson; First Base
man M. L. Dolan; Second Baseman
VIM. Roland; Third Baseman Lew
Baker; Short Stop III. w. Baerer; Left
Fielder A. j. Bourgeois; Ralph Beh-
ringer and G. Armstrong. The latter
two were suspended for not reporting.
Everett, who played center field is a
free lance, but will probably return
to Wausau if wanted. 1t is very
likely that few of the above players
will be seen on the team next year.
Darby O'Brien of Duluth, and Joe
Stafford Of La Crosse, are the only
managers whose names appear on the
reserve list of the NV. league. If
Winona dispenseS with the services of
Joe LILLIAN it will be appreciated by
the olner clubs in the league. 1t is
quite certain that the season of 1910
will witness a strengthening of all
the teams, resulting in better class
of ball being played.
A meetingof the league is scheduled
TO be held today in Duluth.

NAN DROWNED.

John Rebaczyk, an employe of the
Jacob Mortenson Lumber Co., was
drowned Wednesday morning. Since
the Bridge street bridge has been
closed TO traffic it has been customary
for employees of the mill living on the
east side of the river, to cross over TO
the mill on boom. 1t is supposed
that while Rebaczyk was crossing
that morning he lost his balance and
fell into the water and not being able
TO swim he drowned.
Frank Jandreau who poles logs up
the bullslide of the mill, in the mid
die of the forenoon found dinner
pail floating in the pond and hauled
it out with his pike pole and placed
it on boom. Later when it was re-
ported that Rebaczyk was missing an
investigation was started which re-
suited in finding his body near one of
the booms in six or seven feet of
water. Both arms were wrapped
around sunken log. 1t is presumed
that after going TO the bottom he
struck the log and hung to it, He
was about thirty years OF age and
his home was near Stevens Point,
where his remains were taken fer
burial. He is survived by his wife
and FIVE children. Rebaczyk was
better known as John Fischer, an
adopted name.
