NOW AWAITING CALL.
Democrats Soon to Gather to Elect Ma
tional Committeeman.

A call for a meeting of the Demo
cratic State Central committee may be
expected within very few days, as
Joseph E. Davies of Madison, chair
man Of the committee, returned home
from Europe where he has been for
the past two months and on his arriv-
al in Madison stated that he would at
once consult with the party leaders of
the state on the advisability of calling
meeting of the committee to elect a
successor to the late Timothy E. Ryan
of Waukesha as national committee
man.
There is no question but that all of
the party leaders will urge Chairman
Davies to lose no time in calling a
meeting of the committee to elect a
national committeeman from this
state. Ever since Mr.. Ryan's death
there has been spirited campaign
waged among leaders of the party and
tney nave been anX1ouslw awaiting the
return of MIR. Davies.
John A. Awkward of Madison and a
law partner of Chairman Davies, de-
clares that he would not accept the
position of national committeeman if
rendered him. It is known that Mr..
Awkward has wri sten to the members
OF the state central COMMITTEES urging
them to support Mr.. Davies for the
position but there is much opposition
to MIR. Davies and it is not believed
that he could be elected if he entered
the race. Daniel II. Grady Of Portage
appears to be the strongest candidate
thus far.

FIND INFANTS BODY.
Remains of Child of Mrs. Anna Mag
dolen Found in Cellar This Morning.

The body of the infant son of Mrs.
Anna Magdolen for which the police
of Kenosha have been searching since
Tuesday, was found just before noon
Friday in box in the basement of a
house at Is Fremont avenue where
Mrs. Magdolen had lived. The body
of the little baby had been carefully
wrapped in cloth ana the cloth was
tied with ribbon. The remains were
those of a fully developed male child
but when they were taken to the
morgue they were so decomposed as
to preclude the holding of post NOR
tenn examination. Only a few minutes
before the body of the baby was found
the mother had started for the state
prison at Waupun to serve an eighteen
months term and it is very improbable
that the case will be reopened. Coro-
ner j. H. Stanton held that an inquest
over the remains of the infant would
be of no value and they were taken
out and buried this afternoon. The
police Office was represented when the
body of the child was found and the
officers held that the woman was pay
ing a sufficient penalty for her crime

WELL KNOWN BASE BALL MAN
Mueller Fell From the Top of the Car
on Last Tuesday Evening and Suffer
ed Fractured Skull-Dies without
Regaining Consciousness.

William Mueller, aged 25 years,
formerly well known in Kenosha and
resident of this city for many years,
died at the Milwaukee hospital in Mil
waukee on Thursday as result of in
iuries received last Tuesday when he
fell from car while working as a
brakeman on the Northwestern rail
way. Mueller was great favorite
with railway men in Kenosha and was
widely known as an amateur baseball
player and his death has caused in
tense sorrow among the railway men
III the city.
Mueller's parents live in Milwaukee
but he came to this city about seven
years ago to work for the Northwestern
road as a brakeman and during his
employment in Kenosha he made his
home at the Northwestern hotel A
year ago the company transferred him
to the Milwaukee yards and he had
since been working with the switching
crews in that city.
On Tuesday morning Mueller went
with switching crew to handle a
bunch Of ears at what is known as the
Templeton gravel pit and it was near
| this pit that he met the in Iuries which
proved fatal on Thursday. Mueller
was working on the top of one of the
gravel cars and the men with him are
not able to give details of his injury.
He was busy with the cars when with
out any warning he was seen to pitch
from the top of one Of the cars, his
| head striking on the hard ground
Mueller was picked up unconscious and
taken to the hospital III an ambulance.
| 1t was found that his skull was frac-
tured and that he had sustained severe
| internal injuries. His entire body was
bruised. He was not struck by the
wheels Of the train in his fall and
death was due to the great fracture Of
| the skull. Mueller never regained
consciousness after being taken to the
hospital and for this reason no details
of the cause of the accident could be
secured The coroner of Milwaukee
county is holding an inquest over the
remains this afternoon.
Mueller was the only son of his par
ents and was unmarried. He was a
man with a particularly cheerful dis
position and this made him prime
favorite with the Other employees of
the company. Mueller was captain Of
the railway baseball team while he was
in Kenosha and played with several
other amateur teams of the city. AT
one time he planned to- give up rail
reading and go into professional base.
ball but his friends persuaded him to
remain in the railway work.

JACK CROKE A CLOSE SECOND
"Chick" Evans of Edgewater Was the
Only Amateur Entered in the Con-
test to Land in the Winners of the
Prizes offered.

Bob Simpson, professional of the Ke-
nosha Country club proved his right to
the title of premier golfer of the west
on the kenosha links on Thursday when
he won the open tournament under the
auspices Of the Kenosha Country club
defeating just as fast field of golf
ers she defeated when he won his
title on the links of the Kent Country
club at Grand Rapids. Simpson won
his victory by the narrowest of mar
gins and at the conclusion of the tour
nament three golfers were crowding
him close for the first place in the big
competition. Simpson took a long lead
OIL the field in the morning round when
he returned score of 6S for the first
eighteen holes of the match. In the
afternoon s play however his game fell
| down and the best he could do was 76.
George Simpson Of Wheaton who had
made ~ in the morning round play
ed sensational golf on the out course
1
in the afternoon equaling Simpson S
record of 50 made in the morning
round but the Wheaton man fell down
badly in the second round and brought
| in a 43 which gave him fourth place
in the big match. The prize winners
in the match were Bob Simpson, Jack
Croke of Westward Ho, Tom Warden
of Onwentsia. George Simpson of
Wheaton. "Chick" Evans the only
one Of the amateurs to make good
showing in the competition, was tied
with Walter Fovargue of Skokie for
fifth place in the match.
Grand golf was played in the af-
| ternoon rounds. Croke of Westward
Ho was the star of the afternoon and
he came within one of equalling the
record Of Simpson for the morning
round. Croke looked like the winner
| of the money but he fell down miser-
ably on the last few holes of the af-
ternoon fight and missed half doz-
en- short puts the making of any two
of which would have returned him a
winner.
Jimmie Simpson of Blue Mound who
was expected to get close to the win
ner, did mot land within the money.
It was poor day for the amateurs
and with the exception of Evans, Nc
Cornell and Seckel they did not get
close to the winning scores. The anna
teurs declared that they were unfami-
liar with the course and it is certain
that with a little practice over the
course that Evans would have shown
the professionals faster game. The

KEEP F|REMEN BUSY
Fire Fighters Answer -Four
Calls During the Storm
of Wednesday
8 HOUSES HIT BY LIGHTNING

The members Of the Kenosha fire
department had busy hour between
four and five O'Clock Wednesday af-
ternoon for three houses in the CITY
were struck by lightning and the men
from the Central station and the west
side house were kept pretty well on
the run The first fire came just be
fore the breaking of the storm and il
was at house owned by Peter Maurice
and located at 705 Grand avenue.
Spontaneous combustion caused the
blaze and it did damage to the
amount Of $35 The fremen had not
returned to the house when there was
a call from house at II Brockett
street which had been struck by
lightning. The house is owned by Hans
Hanson. The lightning struck the peak
of the roof and was carried down the
side of the house causing damage to
the amount of more than a hundred
dollars. There was no one in the house
at the time it was struck. In the mean
time the west side men had been called
to the corner of Rowland avenue and
Elizabeth street as result Of another
house being struck by the electricity,
but this house was not damaged and
the occupants escaped uninjured. The
Central department was called out Just
before five O'Clock on account Of a

MUST ANSWER TO TWO WOMEN
Chief Of Police Left for the East This
Morning to Bring the Man Here to
Answer Serious Charges Brought
Against Him.

The police Of Kenosha have done a
clever piece of detective work in the
arrest of Peter Laven former prcprie +.
tor of the Nolan Cafeteria, who is
wanted here on q charge of bigamy
and who was arrested at Alexandria
Bay, New York, on Wednesday even
ing by B. S Tracy, chief Of police Of
that village.
The arrest was made by means of a
decoy letter sent TO Lavcn at the New
York village. Laven left Kenosha
more than a month ago and had hid
den himself in little village on the
st. Lawrence river, ten miles from a
railway station. He had, however,
sent letter to one of his friends in
this city and this got into the hands
of Veronica Chances, the woman that
he married in Kenosha while he had a
wife living in Chicago. The Chances
woman at once reported to the police
that her supposed husband was living
in New York under the name Of P. K.
Johnson and the police at once wired
the officials to be on the lookout for
him and sent The decoy letter. Laven
called at the office for the letter just
after noon on Wednesday and the post
master at once notified the chief Of
police and he caused the arrest.
1t is probable that there will be more
than one charge against Laven. His
former wife has promised to join with
the woman he married in Kenosha in
pushing the charges of bigamy against
him and the Kenosha woman declares
that Laven took with him when he
left ,Kenosha nearly 5000 belonging to
her. Laven after his arrest consented
to return to Kenosha for trial without
the red tape of requisition and Chief
of Police O'Hare expects to have him
back in the county Jail by next Sunday.
Friends Of Laven declare that he
was the victim Of circumstances and
assert that he believed that his first
wife was dead when he was married
to the Chances woman at the Lithu-
anian church here. They assert that
he had been advised that the first wife
was dead but that he had not taken
the trouble to look into the report
The first wife was alleged to have
died only short time before the sec
ond marriage took place in Kenosha.
AT the time the Chances girl and Laven
were both working at the Cafeteria
and she put in her savings of many
years to buy the restaurant with the
understanding that the husband y
was to run the place. The woman was
still working as waitress when the
husband is alleged to have sold out the
restaurant and decamped with the
money secured from the sale. The
Chances woman is now working at the
plant of the Simmons Manufacturing
company while the first Mrs. Laven is
being cared for by friends at Waule-

HOLD MCCONNELL FOR TRIAL.
Robert Mcconnell Bound Over to Next
Term of the Municipal Court.

Robert llcConnell, arrested on last
Monday evening on charges of taking
indecent liberties with two little girls
was arraigned before Judge Randall in
the municipal court Friday morning and
held for trial at the next term of the
municipal court on two counts. Bail
was fixed at 81 1000 in each case and
Mcconnell returned to Jail. The story
told by the children and their parents
showed that there is strong evidence
against the accused man. Mcconnell
took the stand in his own defense but
his story which was decidedly brief
was little more than a general denial
of the charges and it did not affect the
court in holding him for trial. The de
PENDANT will probably be brought to
trial early in October.
