being reinforced with assistance from
Fargo.
The fire had its origin in the rear
OF the Cass county bank building and
completely destroyed the Stanley
grocery store. the Tim clothing store
and the old opera house block. Some
damage was done to the Cass county
bank building and to the Hanson mil
linery store, the Pollock pool room.
Lindsay jewelry store, Crawford mu-
sic store and the Mcintyre store. The
owners OF these several places of
business moved their stock out of the
buildings as rapidly as possible, only
the fact that the wind was in the
other direction saving them from de.
struction.
Just how the fire was started. ia I'M.

when discovered. The fact that
everything is so dry made the pro-
gress OF the flames rapid, and with
the shortage Of water and the inef-
ficient fire fighting appartus. Cassel-
ton people had hard task ahead of
them. When assistance was finally
secured from Fargo. the combination
or the forces resulted in the flames
being placed under control, although
the Job was no small one.
The exact damage sustained in the
blaze is still uncertain, but it will
probably be in the neighborhood Of
about $4,000. "

IN RAWN CASE
U3W EE IA aH
Finds Bullet Was Fired From
His Own Revolver by His
Own Hand

Chicago. July 29.-The coroner's
jury impanelled to inquire into the
death of Ira G. Rawn, the late presi-
dent of the Monon railroad, returned
an open verdict at 8 o'clock this
morning, but found that he died from
shot fired from his own weapon by
his own hand. The verdict follows:
I'VE, the jurors sworn on oath to
inquire into the death of Ira G. Rawn
at his home in Winnettka on July 20,
find that he came to his death from
shock and hemorrhages caused by a
bullet from his own revolver fired by
his own hand, but whether this was
accidental or with suicidal entent this
jury is unable to determine except
that the location Of the wound and
the type of revolver render the acci-
dent theory less probable"

LIND TO RUN
The Minnesota Democrats Will
Not: Take No For an
Answer

Minneapolis, July 29-The Demo-
cratic storm signals which were fly
ing when the state Democratic con-
vention met here yesterday were torn
to shreds by the tempest of feeling
which was let loose late yesterday aft
ernoon over the nomination of John
Lind for governor. in spite Of his per-
sistent declaration that under no cir
cumstances would he accept the
nomination. Lind is in Everett,
Wash, on his way to Alaska.
Months before the convention he
made it plain that the party should
adopt a county option plank in its
platform. It was insisted by the lead
ers that II that plank were adopted
Lind would accept the nomination.
In spite of his protests to the con-
trtry the anti-optionists. however, Sc
cured control Of the convention and
adopted platform in which no ref
erence was made to county option or
to any form Of temperance legisla-
ton. Then the convention nominated
Lind with no other name being men
toned as q candidate. Lind's son,
who is a prominent business man at
Everett, wired last night that his
father would not and will not accept
the nomination under any circum-
stances. The result is that the Demo-
Gratis are very much up in the air.
For more than three hours, up to
the very minute when the motion to
adjourn was carried, there was no let
up to the scene of disorder except for
q few moments when Chairman Mi
chael DAILY managed to make himself
heard after terrific pounding with a
piece of 2x4 scantling which he used
as gavel. The ticket named fol-

NO CIVIL SERVICE
Socialists In Milwaukee Give New
Turn to the Law.

Milwaukee, Wis, July 29.-Civil
service protection does not apply to
any Office in Milwaukee city hall, the
head Of which 70 obliged to furnish a
bond assuring the honest discharge Of
the duties thereof.
This is the opinion Of City Attorney
Daniel w. Hoan given Harry e.
Briggs, commissioner Of public works
today. Mr.. Briggs asked for an inter-
probation of the civil service law to
circumvent the alleged perniciousness
of the three non-socialist members Of
the civil service board. The city at
torney's view of the situation practi-
cally wipes out civil service in the
city hall as the city attorney is the
only official who does not furnish q
bond.

Lind's Statement

Portland, Ore. July 29-Former
Governor John Lind of Minnesota left
Portland yesterday for Puget Sound
and Alaska. He departed before the
news of his nomination by the Mlnne-
sofa Democrats was received here.
Mr.. Lind was asked II he intended
to accept the nomination II rendered.
He stated that he had not determined
whether he would or would not and
that probably he would not decide the
matter until after the conclusion of
his Alaskan trip.
The impression Mr.. Lind gave was
that he would make every effort to
induce his party to substitute some
one in his place.
