STEALING RIDE; FALLS
OFF TRAIN: is INJURED

Muscatine, Iowa. April 24.-Fall-
ing beneath the wheels of Rock Is
land train No. 81, John Barko of Mus
catine. received injuries which neces-
STATED his removal to Hershey hos
pital, in this city. Barko, a 16-year-
old lad, in company with Edward
Dietrich, also of this city, were bum
ming their way from Rock Island to
Muscatine, and were riding on the
blind baggage of the train. When the
train stopped suddenly at Buffalo,
Barko lost his hold and fell to the
track below. His companion leaped
to the ground and gave an alarm, and
when the train was stopped, Barko
was found insensible. He was re-
moved to the baggage room of the
station there and was later removed
to Muscatine and to Hershey hospi-
tai. 1t was thought that he had suf-
fered severe injuries, but an examina-
tion at the hospital by DR.. w. S. Nor
ton disclosed the fact that he had
suffered no broken bones. The most
serious injury which he sustained was
a long cash in his scalp. DR.. Norton
stated that unless this turned out to
be a concussion or fracture he
would have no further trouble and
would be able to leave the hospital
in day or so.

JUDGE DUNNE DECIDES
TORUN OWN CAMPAIGN

Chicago, April 24.-Edward +.
Dunno, democratic candidate for gov
ernor, viii manage his own campaign.
This ultimatum was served on both
the Reconsideration and Sullivan fac
tions by friends of the former mayor
yesterday.
1t is said that tie Sullivan men are
willing to concede Mr.. Dunne's right
TO take charge of the state campaign
and name the members of his own
campaign committee. The Hearst
men, it is said. are not so considerate
and are insisting upon having a voice
in his affairs. According to one of the
former mayors advisers yesterday, if
the Hearst men continue their pres
ent tactics they will be absolutely ig-
nored. MIR. Dunno is extremely
anxious to bring about some SEM
blance of harmony among the demo-
Gratis in Cook county. Down state,
the democrats are practically united,
as at the Peoria convention it was
shown that the Hearst forces have
practically no power outside of Chi
cago.
The action of Mr.. Dunno will prob,
ably nullify the election of the pre-
cinct committeeman, who under the
law are entitled to elect county cen
tral committee. Mr.. Dunno may name
the chairman of the new state COM
mittee 1t is said that he leans to-
ward H. n. Wheeler of Quincy, who
supported him through the columns
Of his newspaper during the primar-
les. One Indication of harmony
among the downstate democrats came
yesterday when it was announced that
both Samuel Alschuler and Ben +
Caldwell, defeated candidates for the
nomination for governor, are willing
to take the stump in behalf of Dunno
Mr.. Dunno yesterday opened new
headquarters on the ! Sth floor of the
new City Hall Square building.

tion, Vote Unanimous Ap-
proval of Measure.

49, Women Are Excluded From
Meeting Place.

Dublin, April 24.-The convention of
the Irish nationalist party here yester-
day voted unanimously to accept and
indorse the Asquith home rule bill pro-
liberal government
After John Redmond, the leader of
the nationalists in the house of COM
mons, had given his unqualified ap-
proval to the bill, the convention
pledged the support of the national
party to the measure.
Mr.. Redmond opened the convention
by proposing a resolution of sorrow
over the loss of the liner Titanic.
While the resolutions were read the
delegates stood up in their places in
profound silence.
FAVORS NONPARTISAN SENATE.
Mr.. Redmond declared that the home
rule bill offered by the Asquith minis
try was the greatest concession that
could be expected at this time. He de.
clared that when it came to the selec
ton Of an Irish senate under the bill
he would favor the selection of men
not because of their connection with
the nationalist party, but because they
represented the literature, art and
craftsmanship of Ireland.
This bill he said, gives ireland
her share in the government of the
whole empire, and l, for one, have &C
cepted It"
Mr. Redmond declared that under
the bill Dublin castle, with all its evil
and blood-stained traditions. would dis
appear. The Irish would be a nation OF
fools not to accept the bill, which gave
Ireland immediate control of nine
tenths of the Irish services and eyentu
ally of the whole.
FINANCE OF POSITION OVERCOME.
| The delegates cheered these declara
tions for several minutes. There wa:
la feeling among the nationalists be
fore the convention opened that Ger
tain finances of Ireland should b.
vested in the Irish authorities undel
the bill
] Fearing a suffragette disturbance
the officers in charge ordered all WON
en- excluded from the building.
