Mr.. Chassell. who at present is in
Chicago. conceded the nomination to
Senator Allen yesterday by TAO votes.
according to kilograms from the con-
vention city. That he had based his
figures on the returns of the county
auditors is borne out by the figures
reached by the secretary Of state In
the official count. Up to yesterday.
Chassell was thought to have mar
gin of some $40 votes.
Early In the afternoon forty-nine
counties had been heard from and can
vassed. In the result then Allen had
26.S20 and Chassell 1896. giving the
farmer slim margin Of 451. With the
count on the remaining fifty counties,
Allen was found to have maintained
his slim lead and to have kept prac-
tically the same majority.
The count on the two candidates in
several counties developed into a see
saw. In several counties Allen led with
over 1000, and Chassell had only two
or three hundred, while IL. others the
reverse would be true. Page county

Special to Times Republican.
Des Moines, June 1S.-The villisca
murder which startled the state few
days ago will have an echo in the
state legislature next winter when a
bill will be introduced increasing the
amount Of reward which the governor
may offer for the arrest and conviction
Of criminal The present statute lin
its the amount to $500. Residents of
Villisca insisted that the governor offer
more on the theory that killing Of eight
should give him some leaway in ex-
tending the amount say $500 for each
person killed The question was re-
ferred to Attorney General Cosson, who
ruled that the governor could offer but
$500 If hundred people had been
killed. OF course had there been more
than one person implicated in the work
of killing reward Of $500 might be
offered for each criminal. The legis-
,:::..rc ~. undoubtedly be asked to
give some elasticity to the present
statute so that in aggravated cases
such as the Villisca affair." a reward
may be offered such as will be an in
centive for criminologists to work on
the case.

When Mr.. and Mrs. George Beekley
decided upon the importation of a
pair of chipmunks from the mainland,
and brought the same to the islands
on the last voyage of the Pacific. Mail
liner Mongolia. they counted not upon
the determination of an unfeeling
staff of territorial veterinarians.
whose business it is these days to In
stitute a general quarantine upon all
rodents and animals from the shores
of Uncle Sans domain.
At any rate, in the custody of the
keeper of the territorial animal quar-
antine are six chipmunks. over which
much persuasion has been expended
with view of their liberation.
The powers that be, however, have
ruled that the chipmunks must not be
permitted to land ON Hawaii's fair
and coral stranded shores. The ro-
dents are therefore to be returned to
the coast, and will be passengers
in the Matson Navigation steamer
Lurline. which is to take q departure
for San Francisco at six o'clock this
