MURDER AT WALKER.
Man Kills Another, Takes to the
Woods, Found by Posse.

Walker.-Edward Lucia, a steam
boat pilot on Leech lake, shot
and killed James B~oardwell, en-
gineer at the Leech Lake Lumber
company's new saw mill, with a 33
rifle, the shot taking effect in Board
wells forehead, death being instan-
taneous.
Lucia's claim was that Boardwell
and his stepson, Earl Hover, were
making a white slave out of his 16-
year-old daughter.
Arriving at the tent where Board
we'll and the boy were together with
Mrs. Boardwell, Lucia opened up on
the man, firing three shots and then
took to the woods back of the prem
ises.
The village was at once aroused
and men with guns at once organized
themselves as a posse and commenced
a search of the woods for Lucia who
ert Block, of st. Paul.
Block took the gun away from Lucia
and the man went peacefully with him
and Ed. Rogers, to the county Jail
where he is now in custody.
The shooting was evidently premedi-
tated, as Lucia went to the place with
a gun, and a woman heard him re-
mark that he was going to shoot both
the man and the stepson.
Lucia's daughter had been staying
at the Boardwell home for some time
and her father had had words vita
Boardwell on prior occasions regard
ing the girl staying there. The girl
is exceedingly good looking and has
a tinge of Indian blood in her veins.

VIEWS OF TAFT AND TEDDY.
To be Exploited to Aid the Re-
p%ublicans.

Washington, D. C.-President Taft
and former President Roosevelt
have been asked by members of the
Republican congressional campaign to
write letters explaining why, in their
judgment, the voters of the country
should continue the Republican party
in power.
President Taft has promised to do
so. Colonel Roosevelt has not dis
closed what action he will take.
1t is the purpose Of the president to
show that the Republican party is a
party of execution; while the Demo
cratic party, where it has not sup
ported Republican policies, has pur-
sued a course of %innOcuous opposition.
He will dilate upon legislation which
Republicans have enacted during the
present congress and which includes
the tariff law, the railroad rate law,
the postal savings law, statehood for
Arizona and New Mexico, publicity Of
campaign expenditures, etc.
He proposes to also discuss the ques-
ton of the revision of the tariff, point
ing out that the tariff board which has
been created is now making an ex-
haustive study of the various schedules
and of their operation and effect, with
a view of formulating recommends
lions to cure evils found to exist.

sIDNEYA. ANDERSON ANNOUNCED
Impatient Progressive Reveals Plans
in War on Stalwart Faction.

Albert Lea.-Republican insurgency
in the First district which, to all
appearances, has been lifeless
and forgotten, suddenly took on a new
lease of life and upon the ears of
the Republicans of the district was
sprung the startling announcement that
Sidney A. Anderson of Fillmore coun-
ty was to be brought forth as a can
didate against Congressman James
A. Tawney at a meeting to be held in
Rochester, Tuesday afternoon at 4
o'clock.
This information leaked out through
n of the progressives, who had be-
come somewhat impatient at the de-
lay in securing a suitable candidate,
and he partially gave vent to his feel
ings and told the news of the secret
conclave to the newspapers.
The statement issued says
we have found a candidate who
is willing to make the run against
Tawney in the person Of Sndney An
derson of Fillmore county, a prominent
young attorney of that county. He is
a good speaker, likely appearing and
will make al excellent fight against
Tawney.p8

Midsummer dizziness is less pro-
nounced in both Wholesale and retail
departments of trade and as the lead.
ing markets are gradually relieved of
some Of the difficulties with which
they have been beast-crop uncertain,
ties, price Inconsistencies and other
disturbing elementS-a broader de,
mand develops. There is still much
idle cotton machinery in New England
and a two weeks shutdown Is SEIZED,
uled for August, but curtailment is
forcing a recovery from the low price
levels and there is less pressure to
l%iquidate stocks.
Some substantial business Is report
ed in wOolens and while the Eastern
markets for wool continue quiet, pri,
mary markets in the West are active
and higher. Footwear factories, and
trade is much improved in leather,
while hides have recovered from the
low point, large accommodations having
been moved. More definite knowledge
regarding the yield Of cotton in the
South and wheat in the West VIII de-
teTmine the basis of manufacturing
costs In dry goods on the one hand
and -four on the other. Flour pro-
duction in the Northwest continues
greatly reduced. Cancellations in
spring wheat territoryare less numer
u and some orders are being rein
stated, as stocks are generally very
low.
With a few exceptions industrial
lines are busy and labor well employed
in nearly all sections of the country,
making for a large purchasing power,
Except for a moderate reduction on
prices Of wire products no new feature
has developed in iron and steel, the
situation generally rejecting the dull
ness customary at this season. In fin
ished lines, structural material makes
the best showing, most mills having
sufficient orders on hand to keep them
occupied for some time to come, while
several important contracts will be
opened in the near future. Inquiries
are more numerous for pig iron, but
sales are not heavy. Prices of steel
are weaker and open hearth billets
have declined to $3.50, while Bessem.
er billets are quoted nominally $25.
Sheet bars command 81 above billets.
The temporary suspension of iron bar
making tended to strengthen the mar
ket for these slightly, and quotations
are firm at $1.45. Orders on hand for
steel bars are sufficient for three
months operations and specifications
are heavy.
