OYSTERMEN CALLED
Rhode Island Growers to Take up Shell Fish Commissions
 Action.

New Haven, Sept. 7-F,ranklin L. Homan, of this city, president of the Rhode Island Oyster Growers associ- ation has called a special meeting of the members to be held in Providence on Friday to discuss the recent action of the Rhode Island Shell Fish com mission in conforming a majority of the beds on the ground that the water over them is polluted. President Ho- man thinks that some action will be taken regarding the commissions ind ing, but aside from saying that he had called the meeting, would not discuss the subject. The question of the pay nent of taxes to the state by the oyster growers arises as a result of the decision, the argument being made that as the beds are condemned the payment of taxes should cease to a certain extent.
 The Shell Fish commissions decision is more severe than that ever made by the United States government here, and the oyster dealers are up in arms The meeting will be attended by all the growers of the association from Connecticut, Rhode Island and Massa- chusettS.

LAKE WINS SWEEPING
 VICTORY IN HARTFORD
Carries 10 Wards and Has 76 Delegates in City Convention
 to 28 For Goodwin
Victory oanad Over Opposition of COant and Times and Sub
 tie Efforts of Machine Forces

while the three wards that Goodwin carried have but 2S delegates.
 Also the plurality in the popular vote was satisfactory, Lake gaining in a total poll of 5,3O6 votes, a plurality of 592.
 Lake now has the state convention by large majority which will not leave him. It had been feared that if he should lose his home city there might be a slump of delegates to Goodwin.
 When newspapers known upon every occasion to further railroad plans de- clared against him, and when among Goodwin's packers were seen some of the most notorious railroad lobbyists in the state, the tide of public senti- 1nent swe11ed in his favor.
 Lakes unexpected victory in Meri- den, where he got five out of six dele gates last night, is also a cheerful evil dence of the, tendency of things.

Hartford, Sept. 7.-Now that the smoke of the conflict has died away somewhat and the battlefield is viewed in 8 clearer light through the glass of results the victory of Everett J. Lake, is regarded as almost a miracle, for he had against him the two power fu1 newspapers of this city, the Cour- and The Times, the entire Republican machine.
 His nomination for governor to head the Republican ticket is believed to be certain, for the work goes out this morning that Lake has whipped the machine.

THREE MINNESOTA
men LOSE LIVES
DROWNED WHILE ATTEMPTING
TO CROSS SOUTHERN END
OF MERRITT LAKE.

Biwabik, Mimi, March ia triple
drowning occurred near -,ere yester-
day afternoon. the victims being ia
cob Lindstad. aged SO; Pete Hartland,
aged rs and Gus Swanson, aged 80.
The first two were lumbermen, the
last being a blacksmith.
The three men left Biwabik about
1880 o'clock for a hunting camp on
Long lake, owned by Lindstad. They
we're taking a short cut across the
southern end of Merritt lake near the
Iron Range railroad bridge. Accord
ing to the story of men at a lumber
camp nearby, who witnessed the acct
dent, the men were following the
course of the current about fifty feet
from the shore. Lindstad was a little
ahead of his fellows when the latter
suddenly fell through The treacherous
ice, having ventured too near the UNI
frozen part of the stream. Hearing
their calls, Lindstad hurried back to
their assistance, but lie too fell in.
The men in the adjacent camp pro-
cured poles which they threw to the
drowning mems assistance. Lindstad
gave out and the current carried him
under. One of the men wore a fur
overcoat and one had a ful1 pack sack.
Rescuers Nearly Drown,
Matt Michaelson, Biwabik saloon
keeper had a narrow escape. He
walked out on a pole held by the
other men and endeavored to sound
the bottom with another pole. He was
followed by another man, and both
losing theiR balance, fell in and in turn
needed assistance. Thew were dragged
safely out in an, exhausted condition.
The Bfwabik police were notified, but
not until three hours afterward were
they successful in recovering the three
bodies, which a whirlpool had car
ried forty yards apart.
Profound sorrow exists among resi-
dents of the locality, the unfortunate
men being we'll known. Considerable
sympathy is evoked in the case of
Swanson, who leaves a wife and three
young children. He belonged to the
Eagles and will be accorded a funeral
by that organization.
Hartland was the innocent victim OF
shooting outrage on the occasion OF
the attempted robbery of the Biwabik
bank several months ago, from the
effects of which he had just recovered.
Lindstad leaves a grown up family,
most of whom are still in the old
country.
