GATE FURTHER INTO GUY
ROBINSON DEATH.

The coroner's jury which met Thurs
! day afternoon to investigate the death
of Guy Robinson of Charlton, who was
found lying dead alongside the Bur.
| lington tracks just east of Jefferson
street early Thursday morning, was
unable to return verdict as to how
, the man met his death and has been
excused until a future date, to lnvesti'
gate further. Several witnesses in
GLIDING police officers and the rela'
tives Of the dead man, were examiner,
and an autopsy was performed by DR..
c.. f. Huband just before the inquest
was held.
The autopsy revealed the fact that
there were two slight abrasions on the
upper front part Of the head and
heavy fracture at the base OF the skull.
The physician testified that there was
evidence of two blows on the front
part of the head but that these did not
cause fracture However, he stated,
that there was a large blood tumor at
the base of the head under the scalp
and that this had produced fracture.
filling the inner skull with blood. The
witness said that this one fracture
alone was sufficient to produce death
but that he was not able to state in
any way what had caused the fracture.
The relatives told of the young man
having had slight mental trouble since
February 1, 1918, when he was struck
by a Chicago & Alton train near Mex
leo, Mo. At that time he and his
brother were walking along the right
of way and he was thrown to one side
and severely injured about the back
and spine, while his brother was
killed The police told of interview
ing the man at the Union depot on
Wednesday afternoon and that he ap-
peared to be suffering from some sort
of a Authorization. The father, broth
er and brother-in-law of Charlton, who
came to Ottumwa Thursday afternoon
returned with the body late Thursday
night The funeral was held at that
place today with burial in the Oak
ridge cemetery near Charlton.

The action could quite as easily have
taken place in New York, London. San

could just as easily, though not nearly
so picturesquely be modern Partisan.
The play, although somewhat short,
gains enormously by keeping the ac-
ton at swift pace. There is not
much serious sentiment, but what
there, is, is introduced in "a mastery.
fashion by the playwright. The char.
acters are made to blend harmonious
ly with each other, and no one stands
out more prominently than another.
The Ben Greet company which per,
formed here Thursday evening is one
of two companies, both coached by
Ben Greet, who is not player. This
company is composed of fifteen artists,
all students of Shakespeare, and all OF
whom were excellent in the portrayal
of their parts.

TWO CANDIDATES !.
HERE FOR NIGHT

Democratic politicians held sway at
the Ballingan hotel Thursday night
when numbers of the local ,adherants
OF that party made visit to the hos
telry to meet Congressman Connolly,
candidate for United States senator,
w. H. Hamilton of Sigourney, candi.

trict. Numerous persons, both demo

didates until late hour despite the
rain that fell plentifully during the
evening. Mr.. Connolly left for Des
Moines this morning and Mr.. Hamil-
ton will not return to Sigourney be-
fore this evening.
Both candidates were speakers at
Abba chautauqua where democrat day
was observed Thursday. They came
here on the Burlington evening train
at o'clock. A conference was held
by Congressman Connolly and a num-
Der of local democrats during the early
|evening hours and the question, of the
management of the senatorial cam.
paign was discussed.
Mr.. Connolly would not state defln-
itely when seen this morning before
his departure, just who had been Sc
lected to manage his campaign. Form.
er Senator E. G.. Moon of Ottumwa,
successfully managed the campaign in
the primary, but it is likely that John
DeMar of Des Moines, former Davis
county democrat, we'll known in state
politics, will be in charge of the SEN
atorial race this fall. This latter has
not been fully determined upon and
will not be known for sure until after
a conference between Connolly and
DeMar in Des Moines today 1t was
learned however, that the work will
begin at once or as soon as it Is pos
sible to- get started. headquarters
will be established and the preliminary
work begun possibly within a week.
Mr.. Connolly is possessed Of a healthy
optimism and takes a roseate view of
the political future, but seems to feel
that there is a task ahead of him that
will require attention and persever-
ance He will return to Washington
next week.

No Mobilization Yet
Berlin, July 31-The German foreign
Office gave assurance this morning that
no mobilization order would be issued
in Germany today. Officials admitted
however that the situation had not i'm
proved, but had become rather So
gravated since the issue of the Rus
sian mobilization order.
L. had been generally expected that
an order for the mobilization of the
German army and navy would be issu-

rise today to hopes that something
might happen to avert the necessity of
doing so.

lyzed.
With the railroads facing the move
ment of the largest agricultural yield
in years, strike at this time would be
unusually unfortunate, Mr.. Hanger as.
serted and the mediators asked the
president to intervene. He added that
this was the only one of thirty-one In
dustrial disputes in which the board
has exercised it's good offices, which
was not settled. He said that the
boards negotiations in this case were
confidential and that no information
would be given out unless it came from
the president.
Dispute Of Long Standing.
The wage dispute between the en-.
ginemen of the western railroads and
their employers reached a critical
stage July 16. 1914, when, having fail
ed to come to an understanding, the
union chiefs and the managers com.
mittee suspended negotiations and the
labor leaders informed the managers
that notice of a strike would be serv'
ed Immediately.
The mems original demands had
been presented October 10, 1913. and
negotiations had been going on about
three months Two days later, how
ever, both sides agreed upon federal
arbitration, although the enginemen
previously had refused peremptorily to
consider 1t on the ground that the
roads had refused to be governed by
former arbitration court decisions.
Matters with the men had proceeded
to the taking Of strike vote the re-
suit of which, announced July a.
showed that the men were almost
unanimously in favor of backing their
demands by general walkout.
Basing their demand on the increas
ed cost of living, the men called for
increases in pay and overtime allow
ances, which, they said, would just
about cover the advance in the price
of necessities in the past four years
In answer, the roads declared the In
creases asked for would amount to
$33,OO0,O00 a year or a fifty per cent
advance In wages and could not be
granted
Ninety-eight railroads were affected
by the demands. They included vir'
tually every line in the United States
west Of Chicago and also the Illinois
Central road. In Canada every line
west of Fort Williams, Ontario, was
affected except the Grand Trunk Pa

DOUDS REVIVAL
ATTRACTS CROWDS

Douds-Leando. July 30.-The taber-
nacle in which the revival chautauqua
is being held was filled to overlooking
with interested spectators last night.
EVANGELIST Hicks delivered his famous
lecture The Bible and lntldelity,' and
his arguments were SO convincing in
favor of the bible that any honest
doubter could have seen the fallacy Of
any of the arguments of infidelity.
Mr.. Hicks showed how the bible had
told all about the wonders that science
is lust awakening to. He also told Of
the testimony of several intidels that
said Moses knew a great deal about
geology wherever he got his knowledge.
Mr.. Hicks proved beyond a doubt that
the bible is the word Of God and be-
cause one cannot understand it, is
just reason enough that it is the word
Of God '."'
