IS NOT YET SETTLED
Location of Proposed Building
for Insane Still Under
Dispute.
JESSUP GIVES AN OPINION

Farther from a settlement than ever
before the county commissioners still
have the matter of establishing the To-
cation of the building for the county
insane, who cannot be admitted to the
state institution. under consideration
and are likely to continue in such a
state of mind for some time.
The legal phase of the question is
what is causing the most trouble.
County Attorney John F. Robbins has
given the commissioners the opinion
that the building can be located AT the
poor farm and no Other place.
Wilfred Jessup attended the meet
ing of the commissioners with MIR.
Robbins this morning and stated that
personally he believed the wiser course
to pursue would be to build a new
Jail and have quarters in this institu-
tion for the care CT the dangerously
insane men. and that quarters be pro-
vided at the county farm for the in
sane women.

Washington, Feb. 26.-Gifford Pin

investigation, in the Ballinger-Pinchot
controversy today and read long
statement which he prepared in ad-
vance and which proved to be most
bitter attack. He endeavored to prove
determined to thwart Roosevelt's pol
icies against the monopolistic control
of water power: that Louis r. CLAWS
had been faithful public official and
unjustly fired" and that on account
of unfaithful public servants it is now
more difficult to protect public prop
erty than to despoil it. and betrayal
into monopolistic control is made
easy.
Barr on the Stand.
w. w. Barr, timber merchant of
Seattle, who has engaged the services
of l.. r. CLAWS, since the latter was
dismissed from the governments en-
ploy, was again placed on the witness
stand when the Ballinger-Pinchot COM
mitteemen met this morning. A big
crowd was in attendance.
The cross examination this morn
ing did not show that CLAWS had COM
mitted any improperly in accepting
the employment which Barr offSksd.
Barr said he and CLAWS had an agree
hot hn lon hn
ed they would share alike.
Andrew Kennedy, the former coal
expert of the general land office was
then called to the witness stand.
Kennedy read a letter of instruc-
tions which CLAWS had written him in
directing the field examination of the
coal claims in Alaska.
1t requested much work in harmony
with Gabriel Wingate. the coal eX-
pert. in the forest service. 1t was
shown yesterday that Wingate report
ed that there was no coal on the
claims to counteract the impression
that Chairman Nelson had created.
that CLAWS had directed Kennedy to
cooperate with Wingate in his find
ings. If he had done so he would
have been obliged to report "No coal"
What Kennedy Said.
Kennedy said he had received no
such instructions from CLAWS who
had given him no directions, but mere.
ly requested that he should work in
harmony with Wingate.
Mr.. Vertrees read a letter and Mr.
Kennedy identified it as the one he
had written to CLAWS from Alaska
showing that he and Wingate had not
agreed as to the coal bearing charact-
er of the lands under investigation.
The witness was impressed with the
fact that there was much coal while

there was little coal. Kennedy esti-
mated that there were 10000, 900 tons

Terrible Death Met by John

on Construction Gang, Died
Last Evening.
CAMBRIDGE CITY WAS
SCENE OF FATALITY
Relatives of Unfortunate Man,
Whose Home was Thought
to be Philadelphia. Cannot
be Located.

Never having regaiHed conscious
ness from the terrible accident which
befell him on the Pennsylvania rail-
road at Cambridge City. yesterday af-
ternOOn. John Henderson. a member
of the construction gang working near
Cambridge died last evening about Z
o'clock, at the Reid Memorial hospit
al.
Henderson. whose home is said to
be in Philadelphia. has been working
on the construction gang for several
months. He was employed as the
boss carpenter. The accident which
resulted in the mans death. occurred
about | o'clock. The particulars of
the affair are meager and no one
seems to have a clear idea as to just
exactly the manner in which the man
met his death. However. the most
consistent story, and the version held
by the majority who are acquainted
with the particulars, is to the effect
that Henderson was sighting along
the rail to see if it were straight when
he was struck in the back of the head
by a freight train and thrown under
the wheels of the engine.
He Was Badly MansIed.
His left leg was severed just above
the knee and a terrible cash was cut
in the back of the mans head. His
leg was ground into a pulp beneath
the wheels. and the man bled profuse-
ly as the result of his injuries.
He was rendered unconscious and
with all possible haste was placed
aboard a special train and hurried to
this city where he was at once remov-
ed to the Reid Memorial hospital. No
hopes were entertained at any time
for Henderson's recovery and, in fact,
he lived much longer than the attend
ing physicians had anticipated.
The deceased was about 80 years of
age and was unmarried. it is said. An
effort is being made to ascertain il
the man has any relatives to take
| charge of the body. but thus far the
attempts in this direction have been
futile. The body will be shipped to
Cambridge City this afternoon.

FIGHT CkNN0NISM
IN SOUTH DAKOTA
Republicans Make it the Para
mount Issue in Coming
Campaign.
PEACE after A BATTLE
PLATFORM ADOPTED SAYS THAT
THE IRREGULARITIES IN THE
TARIFF LAW SHOULD BE REM
EDIED BY PARTY.

Huron, S. D., Feb. 26-After bat
tie of four hours peace has settled
over the conference of the progressive
wing of the republican party of South
Dakota, and r. 0. Richards of Huron
was made chairman of the campaign
committee for the coming primary in
June. Anti-Cannonism is made the
chief issue in the campaign. Gov.
Vessey will be the republican party
leader on a platform which is the
embodiment of the ideas of the lead
ers of both the Richards faction and
the faction led by E. L. Sem. The
platform saws:
I'VE commend President Taft for
his reiterated declaration of loyalty to
the Roosevelt principles of progress
sive republicanism, and pledge his ad-
ministration the support of the pro-
gressive republicans of South Dako-
ia in it's efforts to obtain the enact
ment of legislation embodying these
principles.
Cannonism Chief Issue.
THE dominating issue in the COM
ing campaign is the wrestling of con-
ial interests intrenched behind Speak
er Cannon of the house and Leader
Aldrich of the senate, and their sup
porters. 1t is not sufficient that Speak
err Cannon be retired. 1t is essential
that a successor be elected who is
committed to and is a supporter of
progressive principles. The progress
sive republicans of South Dakota will
not support a candidate at the pri-
mary who does not stand unequivo-
ca1ly on this platform.
I'VE believe the Payne tariff law
was a decided step in fulfillment of
the party pledge, but that inequalities
yet exist which should be remedied
when demonstrated to be such by the
investigations of the tariff commits
sion.
Hit Campaign Fund Methods.
I'VE denos,nce the practice of col.
lecting moneys for political campaign
purposes from persons who hold or
are aspiring to appointive government
positions. and favor the prohibition
thereof by amendment of the corrupt
practice act.
We favor the elimination of the

He Denies Every Material Al
legation Brought by the
Junior Partner of Firm, J..
Will Cunningham.
ACTION BY COURT is
EXPECTED ON MONDAY
Defendant in Answer Ayers In
debtedness is $4,000, while
Stock Value is $4,000, AC-
counts $500.

Stating that there is no reason in
law or equity, for the appointment OF
a receiver for the shoe firm Of Cum
ningham and Lahrman. 71S Main
street, as petitioned for by J. Will
Cunningham, the junior partner, yes
terday, Fred c. Lahrman, the defen-
the circuit court this morning, oppos-
ing the appointment of receiver.
Judge Fox of the circuit court has
not acted on either the petition or the
answer, and it is probable that no
action will be taken until Monday.
The answer of Mr.. Lahrman is fill
ed in two paragraphs. In the first,
he denies every material allegation
made in the plaintiffs petition. while
in the second paragraph, he outlines,
in detail, the method of management
of the firm.
Ayers Debt is Protected.
Mr.. Lahrman holds that the indebt
edness of the firm is about $4,000,
which amount is held by a local bank.
Inasmuch as the stock on hand is valu-
ed at $4,000 and the firm has a book
account amounting to approximately
$500, the defendant says that there is
no just reason for the appointment of
such an official to take charge of the
store and settle accounts with the
firm members and creditors.
Instead, the defendant desires that
the matter be settled on March ). at
which time, ne believes. he can pur-
chase the interests of Mr.. Cunning
ham. An arrangement. whereby one
of the partners was to buy out the
other. was made on January 4. 1910.
at which time Mr. Cunningham mott
fled the defendant that he desired
the partnership to cease. The agree
ment was to the effect that the part
nership would cease upon a sale of
stock, at reduced prices. Mr.. Cum
ningham's proposal was that one or
the other give or take $3.16325 for
his interest in the firm and that the
one who assumed control should as
sumo the debt of $3.50.
Mr.. Lahrman says that the financial
matters of the firm were entirely in
the hands of the plaintiff. He also
says that he was notified by the plain
tiff that he no longer would receive
remuneration. The defendant con-
cludes his answer to the petition for
receiver by praying the court for
judgment for costs and dismissal of
the action.
