HASTINGS' MYSIKIMOlS Ml'llDF!'.
Chairman Frlck to he Arrested For
Murder Tho Adjusters For
the Different Insurance
Companies are Set
ting Up.
Coronor I'unili was notified this
nfternon that tin- body of a boy
about ll yenrs old had been found
in the river at Hrownville at noon
today. It is nndoiilitedly the body
of Henry McCarthy, tlie boy who
wih drowned Sunday at Rocky
l'oint. Mr. McCarthy being uualile
to go himself on account of sick
ness sent smother member of the
family down to identify the body
and bring it back.
Found Dead in a bhanty.
The citizens of Hastings are all
greatly chocked over the mysteri
ous murder of Delvan S. Cole, an
old and wealthy pettier of that city.
An examination of the body showed
a bullet hole from a HN or 44-culibre
gun, behind and below the right
ear. When found he waa lying in
an old deserted one-story house, a
couple of hundred yards from hit
home. Mr. Cole wan well off finan
cially, being in about as comfort
able circumstances an anyone in
that city. Monday he received and
handled considerable money, de
positing a good sined amount in
the First National bank and also
sending a large Hum away. He in
the owner of Cole's park, one of the
largest imd by far the beet im
proved park in Hastings.
Monday night at W o'clock, it is
stated, he returned to his home and
discussed with his wife the proba
bility of there being any ruffians in
the nark, and according to his
usual custom went east to close the
gates of the park for the night. Ik
did not return, and although Mrs.
Cole went to bed she arose early in
the morning and began searching
for her husband.
A little later Mr. Cole 'vas found
in the shanty by a neighbor, Mrs
Hacknian. This building was used
for a tenement some tbne ago, but
has 'low been deserted for a long
time and not a pane of gl iss re
mains. Frick to be Arrested-
John Cox, one of the attorneys for
the amalgamated association, said
last evening that warrants would be
sworn out today for the arrest of
Chairman Frick. Secretary Lovcjoy
General Superintendent l'otter ami
four or live under bosses at the
Homestead steel works, charging
them with murder:
Attorney Cox also said that
liorough Solictior Millikeu is pre
oaring a number of informations
charging several of the militia
men now in camp at Homestead
with having insulted the wives
and daughters of some of the best
citizens of the borough. The war
rants cannot be served upon the
militiamen, however, until tiny are
discharged from service by the
governor. Attorney Cox is an ex
solicitor for the borough and says
that since the advent of the soldiers
they seem to think that the Home
stead ladies, whether of high or
low degree, are the subjects of their
pleasure. No lady can now pass
aloug the streets without being the
subject of slighting remarks or
open insult.
Attorney Hrennan, of the ninala
gated association, yesterday made
application before Judge Ewing
for the appointed of a voluntary
trade tribunal to settle the Home
stead .trouble. The petition was
signed by seventy-six of the former
employes.

With a sad heart we chronicle the
first death for Murdock. Mrs. E. T.
Tool, wife of our lumberman, who
came to this place about six weeks
ago, died July 21. Her departure
has cast a gloom over our little vil

with Mr. Tool and bis family in
this hour of their bereavement.

CoLLhiii:, Ck'l-TK August 12, 1V.C
The fust part of the past week was
a continuation of hot, dry weather
unfavorable for all crops; the mid
dle and the last of the week was
cooler and rain fell in all sections,
decidedly improving the crop out
look.
The temperature has averaged,
for the past week as a whole, below
the normal in all sections of the
state; varying from one degree in
the eastern part of the state t,i near
ly three in the west.
The rainfall has exceeded the nor
mal in all sections except the ex-
i treine northern part of the state
where but about a quarter of an
inch fell, being less than half the
normal amount; in the rcmaindcrof
the state generally more than one
inch fell.
Corn has been injured by the hot
dry weather and will be less than
the average crop for the state as a
whole. Winter wheat is being
thrashed and a very large yield is
reported and of unusually good
quality; rye is also a good crop, oats
are about half a crop and potatoes
are below the average condition.
Hay is generally reported a good
crop and pastures in fair condition.

tive, since that timer

General Weaver never came with
in two votes of defeating the Hon.
John II. Gear for the nomination
for governor of Iowa. In 175
Weaver and Gear were both candi
dates for the republican state con
vention of Iowa, but they were not
the only candidates. There weie
five candidates John Russell, John
II. Gear, Robert Sinythe, W. H. Fair
field, and James H. Weaver. No
one had a majority, and Ex-governor
Kirkwood's name was sprung
when the time came to make the
nomination. Russell and Gear both
withdrew, and said their names
should not be presented against the
popular old Governor, Weaver,
Smythe and Fairfield remeined in
the field and the informal vote was:
Kirkwood. WIS; Weaver, 'JIKI; Smyth,
111; and Fairfield, IH. The formal
vote began, and so many votes
from the other candidates went to
Kirkwood that General Weaver's
friends moved to make the nomina
tion of Kirkwood unanimous.
General Weaver left the party in
the next year, and in ls induced
the yreenbaekers and democrats to
fus.e with him as their candidates
for congress. He was elected. In
ls", be I ore his term in congress ex
pired, Weaver was the greenback
labor candidate for president. Jn
lSki-he again because the green
hack candidate for congress in his
old district, the Sixth Iowa, lb
was defeated. In lssl and in lyM; ;is
a fusion candidate he was elected.
In lss he. was again the fusion
candidate for congress, but was de
feated. Since then he has not been
a candidate for office until now.
