led since his defeat by Johnson in
San Francisco, the fighter bade fare
well to his manager, Wilson MiZner
and the bright lights of New York
and came here, thin and pallid to
recuperate. Long days in the coun-
try and nights of wholesome sleep
seemed to put new life into his veins
He bade fair to come back and re-
sumo his place at the top of the
middleweight division. His greatest
desire was to take weight enough to
be able to meet Johnson and retrieve
his former defeat and he thought
he would be able to do 1t.
The dead pugilist's real name was
Stanislaus Kiecal. He was born in
Grand Rapids, Mich. September IA,
1887 and was therefore a little more
than % years old. His parents are
still living in Michigan where he
bought property for them. Tomorrow
will be the first anniversary of his
fight with Johnson.

SPOKANE GRAND JURY

Two Prominent Citizens Charged
With Fraud and Deny 1t.

Spokane, Wash, Oct. 15.-After
sweeping investigation by the special
agents of the United States land Of
flee into the alleged fraudulent ac-
QUESTION OF Alaska coal land, the
federal grand jury which convened
in Spokane returned two indictments
against William l.. Dunn and Ray
mond Brown, prominent Spokane
men, charging them with participa-
ton in the illegal acquisition of rich
coal land claims Both Dunn and
Brown declare positively that no ir-
regularity existed in the entire loca-
tiOns.
Il located forty Spokane and in
land empire people in the Dunn
group in the Kayak district" said
William L. Dunn today. These en-
tries are bona fide. 1 made absO-

Brown admitted having made %

accepted-and then came the protest.
Judge Doe Of COcOnino rose slowly in
his seat and said that he did not wish
to go on record as supporting this ac-
ton: that in his opinion the constitu-
ton was not worth paying freight on.
His remarks were followed by laughter
and the point made appreciated by the
republicans at least.
The morning session began promptly
at 10 o'clock with the distribution of
pay checks for the weeks work. Dele
gates and employees are to be paid by
the week Each delegate got his check
while the pages got pay for only four
DAYS, or since assuming their duties.
Their checks amounted to $50 each.
Small Charlie Parsons, the youngest of
the boy pages, displayed his check with
pride. When he was asked what he
was going to do with all that money,
he said he thought he would save it
till he got another weeks pay and then
buy an automobile. STILL" he reflect
ed thoughtfully, 'if I bought SO worth

from to II and to O'Clock, in ad-
dition to the time they will spend in
committees before and after these

AS the reading proceeded and one
rule after another passed without a
dissent it became apparent that the
delegates were really anxious to get
down to the business for which they
were gathered and any attempts to de-
lay the adoption of the rules was
frowned on. There was a surprising
unanimity about the proceeding, the
majority of the changes made in the
printed rules being typographical err
rors.

DOLL|VER
Iowa Senator Passed AWdQ
Most Unexpectedly
HIS PHYSICIAN PRESENT
Doctor Was Making an Ex-
animation With a Stetho-
scope and Passing Jokes
With Patient When End
Came Without Warning.

Fort Dodge. Oct. Ex-senator JOna-
than P. Dolliver died at his residence
here at 1880 tonight while his physi-
clan, DR.. z. NJ. Van Patten, was exam
lining his heart with a stethoscope.
Death followed an acute attack of
stomach trouble which affected the
heart. His physicians announced to-
night that death was directly due to
dilation of the heart.
The senator had so far recovered his
strength as to be able to walk about
the lawn. He had been up all day and
tonight entered the sitting room for
| his daily consultation with the physi-
clan. The senator Informed the doctor
| that he was feeling much improved
and that he believed he had about re-
covered his normal strength. The
doctor cautioned him about becoming
too anxious to resume his work and
then began an examination of the
heart while the senator was seated in
| a large Norris chair While making
the examination the physician kept up
a conversation with the senator and
asked him how he was feeling.
Il am really feeling better than at
| any time since my sickness" he said,
but l suppose the wolves will be set
bowling about my successor" and the
senator laughed.
The physician continued his work,
counting the beats of the senator's
heart out loud He was frequently in
| terrupted by the senator with the dec
laration that he was unable to hear
his own heart When the physician
counted fourteen beats he informed the
senator. That's good.'' and Dolliver re-
piled, "The most | have been able to
count was seven" The physician con-
tinued the examination and suddenly
noticed that the heart beats ceased. He
shook the stethoscope, believing it was
defective in some way. Again apply
| ing his instrument he discovered that
/ the heart had ceased beating entirely.
| Upon looking into the senator's face he
discovered that death had overtaken
him and he died without struggle and
without pain. No one but the physi-
clan was in the room at the time.
It was learned tonight that at con-
sultation of physicians held a week ago
| it was discovered that the senator was
| in a dangerous condition. DR.. A. H.
jMcCreight said tonight that it was the
Iopinion of the physicians in the con-
sultation that the senator might pro-
long his life by relinquishing his work,
but that he had entirely broken down.
Mrs. Dolliver was not aware of the
| senator's serious condition. She said
tonight that Mr.. Dolliver while in
Washington studied the tariff sched-
| Jules constantly. taking little time to
eat or sleep. The senator during the
Hast week suffered intensely with his
heart and breathed with difficulty.

WeIIndn Launches America
For Transatlantic Trip
SPECTACULAR FAREWELL
Will Seek to Follow Regu-
lar Course of Travel, De
pending on Wireless to
Summon Help If 1t Be
comes Necessary.

Atlantic City. n. j.. Oct. 15.-Sail-
ing into the thick fog that hung low
over the Atlantic ocean a few min
utes after 8 o'clock this morning,
Walter Wellman, with a crew of five
men. is tonight believed to be on an
epoch-making voyage to Europe in
the huge cigar-shaped airship Amer
lea. Numerous wireless messages
were received during the day, and the
latest indicated that Wellman is to-
night sailing through darkness off the
New York coast The men making
the flight are: Walter Wellman, COM
mander; Melvin Vaniman, chief en-
gineer, next in command; F. Murray
Simons, navigator; j. ID. Irwin, wire
less operator; John Aubert and Al
bert Louis Loud, assistant engineers.
The start of the balloon was dra-
matte Roundly criticised by the peO-
pie, who did not believe he would ever
undertake what was thought to be
a foolhardy venture, Wellman startled
the whole island by bringing the
America out of its hangar without
ceremony and going into the air. For
the last thirty days the public has
eXpectantly awaited some move from
the crew Day after day it was an
nounced that a trial flight would be
made as soon as conditions were per-
feet. Early this week it was an
nounced that the airship would make
trial flight, but still she remained
i'm the big shed, and criticisms Of
WelIman became stronger.
About 4 a. m. today the decision
to go was made by Chief Engineer
Vaniman. All night he had watched
the weather bureau. Rousing the
crew. who slept in the hangar, Vani-
man called Wellman by telephone and
notified him that the time to start
had arrived. Wellman was soon on
the way to the inlet. With everything
ready for the word Let 60" the crew
climbed into the car hanging from the
balloon The final ''good-by" was
said to wives and relatives and
friends. and the last word was given
on the board walk and beach the
crowd, estimated at 5000, stood in
awe as the airship began to rise and
sail out into the fog. Then cheer
after cheer followed when the craft
began to disappear in the mist. With
in five minutes it was out of sight.
Robert Miller, the wireless operator
stationed here, kept calling the Amer
lea, but not until 11:15 a. m. was
there a response. Then out OF tine
air came this message, the first ever
sent from an airship at sea:
Headed northeast. All well on
board. Machinery working fine, Good
bye. D. lN"lN'
After this messages came frequently
and all reported good progress. Among
the anxious people who crowded into
the little wireless station pier were
Mrs. Wellman and her two daughters.
Messages were frequently exchanged
between the crew and their relatives.

COBB CHAMPION BATTER.

Chicago, Oct. 15.-Tyrus Cobb
of Detroit, according to the ver-
dict of President Johnson today,
is the leading batsman in the
American league for 1910, with a
winning percentage over Larry
Jajoie of Cleveland of .000S60. AS
the National leaguers dropped
out of the contest sometime ago,
Johnson's announcement means
that Cobb is the champion hitter
of the country. An automobile is
the trophy, over which there has
been much excitement and not
a little criticism, which goes to
Cobb. but Jajoie by permission
of Johnson will accept a dupli-
cate.
Third Baseman Corridor of st.
Louis. vindicated by the state
ment of Umpire Evans, is
quoted as declaring that not only
were Lajoie's eight hits all legi-
innate. but he really should have
been credited with nine.
The percentages were: Cobb,

"BULLIEST EXPERIENCE"
Before leaving for Springfield and
Peoria today, Colonel Roosevelt
said his flight was the "bulliest ex-
perience" he ever had.
Il envy the professional conquest
of space" he said. Il had the op-
portunity to fly in Europe, but
wanted to make my first flight in
an American machine, with an
American aviator at the wheel"
Speaking last night to Hoxsey of
his decision to make the flight, he
said laughingly:
when l saw you, with your
Ratchet face, a well poised Ameri.
can, / decided it was time for my
first flight"
The immense crowd that heard
Colonel Roosevelt's speech last
night has no grounds today for
doubling the colonel's position as to
the democratic party or his attitude
on the republican tariff.

this morning by the managr, who
stated that ultimately the company
intended to build on the sites
leased, which cover the whole block
on Riverside except the building on
the corner of Lincoln across from
the postOffice. The present leases
on the buildings do not expire for
over year, and it is not the inten-
ton to build at once. Three or four
years will probably elapse before
the new building is started, but ulti-
mately new, modern block will be
erected.

fight against the regular republican
organization was endorsed by Col
