LOSE THEIR LIVES.
FOUR OTHERS ARE HURT
We're Preparing to Go Home After
Tenth Day of Target Practice at
Sparta Range-A Shell Premature
ly Went Off.

Sparta. Two members of the Ohio
National guard were instantly killed
when large shell exploded in a can
non at the United States army range,
near here. Four others were in
jured, two so seriously that they were
sent to the National Soldiers home
at Milwaukee for treatment.
The dead are:
Corporal Roland Beverly, Cleve-
land, battery A, Fifth Ohio artillery.
Private Howard w. eau. Cleve-
land, same battalion.
All of the injured men were from
the Cleveland battery.
The accident was caused by the
premature explosion of defective
shell in the mouth of a three inch
gun which was being used in the tar
get practice work The force of the
explosion was so great that the men
killed were blown fifty feet away
from the caissOn, which was demol-
ished. Flying fragments of the
bursted gun were sent in all direc-
tlOnS, ana the report was distinctly
heard for great distance.
The Ohio companies had been on
the range for ten days, and after
making high average were prepar-
ing to go to their homes. The she'll
which exploded was to have been
the last fired. Military discipline
prevented any excitement being dis
played, and strict orders were given
which prevented a repetition of the
accident
Two of the injured soldiers are at
the Milwaukee hospital. They are:
Earl B. Snider, q years old, Ak
ron, O.; suffered a severe confusion
of the right leg; if he stands the
shock he will recover.
John S. Cutcheon, % years old.

SON PROBE COMMITTEE THAT
NO COUNSEL WILL APPEAR.
THINKS HE LACKS POWER
Letter Declares State and Legislature
Do Not Desire to Assume Role of
Prosecutors in Investigation-Seek
Thorough, Impartial inquiry.

MadisOn.-Gov. Francis e. McGov-
ern has decided that the state of
Wisconsin would not be represented
by counsel at the Stephenson investi-
cation in Milwaukee. The governor
mailed letter to Chairman Hepburn
at noon and also notified the sena-
tor by telephone of his decision
Gov McGOvern's letter contains
300 words. In it he stated that in
reply to Chairman Heyburn's tele-
gram requesting him to advise the
committee as to whether it was the
desire of the state to be represented
by an attorney, that he found there
was serious doubt that he had any
power to act in the matter.
Joint resolution No. IS, to which
you refer" said the governor, con
fers no authority upon me- 1t sim
ply requests the United States senate
to investigate the matter, means and
method by which and through which
Isaac Stephenson secured his election
to that body, and it recommends
that the district attorney of Dane
county prosecute persons shown to
have committed perjury in the SEN
atorial inquiry, and suggests that
prosecutions be commenced in the
other counties of the state for such
violations of the corrupt practices
statute as the evidence may justify"
The governor states that in the alb
sence of any specific authority con-
ferred by this resolution the only
other possible source is chapter 268,
laws of 1911, which after considera-
ton leaves him in doubt as to
whether he is empowered to employ
attorneys at state expense.
The invitation to be represented
by counsel, says the governor, comes
too late to permit Of procuring a
desirable attorney who could render
real service without sufficient time
to have gone over the records. He
quotes a recent interview in which
Senator Hepburn was quoted as de-
claring that the state would have no
attorney as it was an "investiga-
ton, not a trial.
He considers the responsibility
squarely up to the committee, not
to the state, which desires only an
impartial review, not persecution he
says.

Customs Officers Back of Arrests in
North Dakota--Chain Con-

Minot, Oct. 5-A chain of grain
smugglers has been unearthed by

arrests have been made at Norma
Walter Jackson, wheat buyer for the
Atlantic Grain Company, and A. J.
Magnie, farmer, are under arrest as
the result of the work of George w.
Foulkes of st. Paul, agent in charge
of the customs agents in the north
west. The men are charged with con-
spring to smuggle grain into the Unit
ed States from Canada. Confessions
from a dozen men have been obtained
by Foulkes.
One of the men under arrest has
confessed. The plea was made a mat
ter of record before a United States
commissioner at Mohall. Both men
were bound over to the federal grand
jury and both furnished bonds.
Search for the Mona Lisa the
Partisan painting, the disappearance
of which has aroused police officials
over the entire world, was directly
responsible for the arrests made at
Norma. me st. Paul officer and as
sociates had been along the frontier
of North Dakota watching for the
painting.
The chain system of grain snug
Cling has been carried on for over a
year. 1t is one that involves both Ca
madam and American farmers. The
Canadian farmer brought his grain
across the border line at night to an
American farmer and later the Amer.
lean farmer brought it to market In
this manner suspicion was not aroused
and the tracks were we'll covered.
In smuggling barley across the line
there is gain of 40 cents a bushel to
the producer, the difference in price
