POLICE TAKE MAN
FOUND IN BURNING HOUSE

Two fires last night caused con-
siderable excitement particularly the
first one, which was discovered short
ly before s o'clock in the paint store
room Of the Pullman Company, be-
yond Eleventh st-eet bridge The
blowing of the whistle at the com
panys plant attracted thousands Of
people who thought big fire was in
progress there. The whistle was
sounded as precaution, the building
being filled with highly oombustible
materials John Peoples, a night
watchman, discovered the blaze which
started in two barrels Of car paint.
The fire regulations at the plant re-
quire that the whistle be sounded
when a blaze breaks out. and this was
done at once, the delay in sending
in the alarm from Box Ga in the com
pany's yards, being due to Peoples
going to the engine room to give the
whistle alarm before fastening TO the
fire box.
While slight the fire might have
resulted disastrously had IL not been
discovered i'm time. There we're many
barrels and cans Of paint In the
store room and had these caught fire
the fremen would have had a hard
fight with the flames The fire was
eXtinguished under blankets and sand
Spontaneous combustion is said to
have been the cause.
The second fire occurred in the
house No. 100 West Fourth street,
owned and tenanted by Fred c. He'll
Max Mahoney, special watchman,
discovered the blaze shortly after IL
o'clock and sent in an alarm from
box No. Q, at Fourth and Market
streets The house was damaged to
the extent Of $3.50, fully covered by
insurance.
This is the second fire that has
occurred In the same building within
the past few months. He'll who says
he was asleep when the fire broke out.
was taken to the police station. The
police took care OF him on the occa-
sion of the first FIRE, but he was re-
leased on the following morning
Neither the hremen or police could
learn what caused the blaze. II was
confined to a second story back room
and IL was discovered only after the
heat cracked the glass in the win
dows and the reflection and smoke at
tracted Mahoney's attention.

Wayne County Farmers Will
Have a Very Poor Crop
of Wheat This Year.

The cost of living is still going sky
ward. From present indications. -four
will cost considerably more during
the coming winter than il has for sew
eral years.
Wayne county farmers will suffer
considerably this year because of the
poor wheat crop. Although disappoint-
farmers in the county are somewhat
consiled with the knowledge that the
crop will not be complete failure, as
was indicated few weeks ago.
The winter killed large part Of the
wheat. Today mill men declare that
if the farmers realize 20 per cent. of
what they did last year off of wheat,
they will be exceedingly lucky. They
declare that instead of spending a
large amount of wheat money" in
Wayne county this year, they will be
obliged to spend it in the western
states.
Local mills are making arrange
ments to secure wheat through agents
in Kansas City and other western
cities After the local farmers secure
enough wheat for seed they will have
but little to sell to the millers- The
millers will be Inconvenience by the
poor crop in the county, as they viii.
be forced to pay excessive freight rates
in the shipment of grain from the
western states This all means, they
say, an increase in the price of -four.

The Woman Whose Husband Never
Had the Right Change.
A prominent broker remarked the
other day that he thought his wife was
the hardest woman to please in the
wide world. She was always asking
him for money when he was home.
"John," she would say, give ME AZ
cents. The grocery boy is here with a
bill" 81 can't give you Al cents" he
would reply. but here's half a dollar"
"Ob, you're the funniest man: you
never have the right change" A dozen
times day she would ask for a few
odd pennies.
Finally the broker went into the
subtreasury and obtained 500 worth
Of bright new pennies. There were
10000 pennies, and he packed them in
a suit case and lugged them home.
Then he went to blacksmith shop
and had an iron tripod made. and upon
this he hung the suit case filed with
pennies.
The next day the butcher came with
his bill. 1t amounted to $5.67. John, "
said the wife. give me 1861" You
will find it on the tripod he explain
ed. The wife returned in moment
in a great rage. why, John" she
cried. I'm not going to count out 56T

Faces DarI(>st Period.
Today the Republican organization,
which SO years ago nominated Abra-

darkest and most foreboding period in
it's historic and honorable career.
Grimly resigned to the future,
whether it bring veal or woe, the old
guard of Republican leaders in stern
council of war issued the command to
fling the forlorn hope of the Presi-
dents denomination against the insur-
gent lines.
Preferring destruction to the dis
grace of being defeated by mere voters
led by Roosevelt, they await the re-
suit of the charge.

INQUEST is BEING
HELD OVER A BODY
tNational News Association,

CHICAGO. June 2i-The inquest
which will officially determine the
Cause of death of young Arthur Lind
lcfr will be held this afternoon. A
che mical examination of the boys liver
by Prof. Haines of the Rush medical
college had disclosed the presence of
arsenic in quantities sufficient to cause
death. One thread in the web of evil
dence against Mrs. Louise Lindloff. the
alleged seeress poisonar. who is being
held on the charge of numbering her
son and is suspected of having put
several other relatives out of the way
for insurance money, has been broken.
Chemists failed to find any traces of
poison in the body of John Graunke,
the woman's first husband. whose body
was exhumed at Milwaukee and the
organs subjected to analysis.

undoubtedly emerge from the smoke
of the battle with some substantial
advantage for New York, and, Incl
dentally, for Charles F. Murphy.
The men who will settle this NOM
ination will be Murphy and his hand
picket New Workers and the men from
the south, although there will soon ap-
pear on the scene various New York
Democrats, including Senator Roose-
welt and Thomas NJ. Osborne, who will
seek to place some of their own brand
of stigma on Murphy and Tammany
Hail. They say they have a large
quantity of stigma on hand and they
are expert stigmatizers.
Pending the attempt to make Mr.
Bryan a denatured bystander in lieu
of Mr.. Bryan's attempt to captain gen.
eral the gathering, one mans guess as
nee is as good as another's, and no
mans guess it any good. Almost any
thing can come out of the hopper, for
all sorts of material will be thrown in.
However, there is this about it:
Hosts of Candidates.
The number of Democrats who are
standing prominently in the fore
ground and awaiting the clarion call to
lead the Democratic hosts to victory
has not been equaled at any conven-
ton in many years. There are avowed
candidates, unavowed candidates, re-
ceptive candidates. deceptive candi-
dates, Barkisses without number, aAg
fair sprinkling of earnest gentlemen
on whom the fate of the party and the
nation depend. and who only need a
chance to prove it.
The game is wide open, and the
players are so numerous it is difficult
to avoid humping into them on the
street corners. Many Democrat aged
more than IS and of good moral char
acter secretaly cherishes the thought
that the lightning may strike him.
and all are ready to lead. provided
they can get any one to follow them.
And, at that. some Of these ambi-
tious gentlemen in place of some of
the avowed candidates may land. 1t
is well to be polite to all Democrats
you meet. Almost any one may be the
candidate.
But not until that little matter re-
lating to William Jennings Bryan has
been attended to. or until MIR Bryan
has attended TO il himself; until Mr.
The Richmond palladium and sun-telegram. [volume] (Richmond, Ind.) 1907-1939, 1912-06-24

the matter with Bryan" is always be-
fore these leaders. For, with Bryan
there, the peerless leader, and the
convention, what would be the matter
with Bryan-from the viewpoint of a
lot of delegates who want to go home ?
1t is intimated Mr.. Bryan thinks moth
ing on earth would be the matter with
him. especially in view Of the split
in the Republican party. That specter
ever looms before these Democratic
leareds and they constantly SILVER
over it.
Managers of the various candidates
constantly beat their tomtoms for
their favorites, but until this first row
is settled there will be nothing much
more definite than the various claims,
which, it may be remarked in pass
ing, are reasonably indefinite. The
identity of the successful candidate
largely depends on Bryan. If Bryan
can dominate, several of the candi-
dates, notably Harmon and Under
wood, can turn to their former duties
embarrassed by the cares of a cam
paign. If Bryan can be squelched, a
different aspect comes over the whole
affair, and the choice is likely to fall
somewhere Bryan may not favor.
Champ Clark Leads.
In the figures given Champ Clark
has the greatest number of votes,
some four hundred odd, but more than
six hundred are needed to nominate.
The Clark supporters are very active,
but not more so than the Wilson
boomers and the promoters of other
candidates. Very few delegates are in
the city as yet, and good many OF
the leaders will not be in until Sat
urday night or Sunday morning.
One leader who is assiduously
courted is Charles F. Murphy, who is
commonly computed to hold the votes
of New York state in the hollow of his
hand The Mayor Gaynor boomers
shout stridently that Murphy is for
Gaynor and that settles it, pointing
out also that Gaynor is Bryan's friend
However. Mr.. Murphy is not commit
ting himself so early in the game. He
has an ace in the hole, as the saying
is, and he knows it. Naturally diffi.
dent and modest, Mr.. Murphy still
maintains about him shrewd eye for
the main chance and he has that eye
peeled constantly. He has valuable
commodity with him in the shape oil
