DALLAS, Tex., April It. There wns a
meeting today between County Attorney
fihlclils ot Omaha nud U. C. Ilotitlorson,
who asserts that ho Is ono of tho Cudahy
kidnapers. ThlH mcctlnK wan nrrnnRcd Bnt.
urdny on n Htntomont from Henderson to
Shields that ho would probably talk after
having consulted Mn attorneys.
Mr. ShleldH Raid tonlRht that Hendcrnou
mill declined to mnko a detailed tatement
of bin alleged connection with tho kidnap
ing and that his talk was full of noncral
Items and had llttlo of tho details that nro
wanted, He alio said that Henderson Is
cautious as lo what ho says nbout this enso,
though ho will ronverso volubly on other
mibjects connected with Omaha. Mr. Shields
said It was probablo E. A. Cudahy and his
son would como to Dallas within tho next
few days to sco llendcison.
MR. CUDAHY IS SKEPTICAL

Tho tPlrftrnphlc reports received from
TMllas, Tex., Saturday night rcgai . . tho
poMlnl Identification of Henderson lis ono
of ho Cudahy kidnapers was received with
Interest by U. A. Cudahy, who Is not, how
ever, Inclined to jjlvo thorn full credence.
Sunday afternoon Mr. Cudahy had n con
nulutlon with John C. Cowln, his attorney,
on the subject and whllo that conference
was In progress ho said to n Ueo reporter:
"Thnro la nothing locldcd about a visit
to Dallas. I havu cecn tho report, but 1
havo cecn so many reports slnco last Do
cumber that I place llttlo confldenco In
them. At this tlmo I am waiting to hear
from County Attorney Shields, who Is In
Dallas, and who will wrtto me his lmpres
slons, If ho thinks Henderson had any
thing to do with tho kidnaping I will take
Kddlo and ?o down there and scu If wo can
Identify him. We will not go, however, on
tbo reports published."
General Cowln said Sunday morning that
County Attorney Shields had gone to Dalian
to ascertain tho facts In regard to Hender
son and would probably bo Influenced In his
notion In tho Callahan case by wl.at ho
heard there.
In his solitary cell In tho county jail Jlin
Callahan read with Interest tho report of
tho partial conversion of tbo county at
torney to tho view that Henderson was
connects! with tho kidnaping. To u guard
at the Jail ho said:
"I did not bollovo that Henderson had
nnythlng m do with It, und thought ho was
striving for a llttlo notoriety, hut If he
can convince Judgo Shields It will lot mo
out, for I don't know Henderson nnd ho
doesn't know me. I never had nnytnlng to
do with tho case, as will bo proved, nnd
I hopo that If Henderson did havo some
thing to do with It ho can succeed In
breaking Into tho Douglas county Jail and
In letting mo get out."

IOWA POLITICAL SITUATION

Mule N Mueti Divided on
Hie ucNtlnn,
DKS MOINES, April 1 1. (Special.) The
political forces In Iowa have been so ma
nipulated of late that an unusual political
situation has developed. With six active
candidates for tho republican nomination
for governor In the field, each a man con
spicuous In the party, and all of tinques
tloncd ability nnd fitness for the ofllce.
there is a hesitancy which plainly Indicates
n waiting attitude on the part of the ru
publlcaus. All ordinary explanations of this
full to tho ground, and it is practically
conceded ny nil that tho real reason for
tho hesitancy Is the hopo which many n -publicans
cherish, that Minister Conger,
when he returns homo tho latter part ot
tho month, will consent to permit his name
to go befuro tho convention ns a candidate.
In that ense a great many of the delegates
will porfcr Conger oer either of thu six
candidates now in tho Held.
On tho other hand, If Conger definitely
lakes himself out of the list of possible
candidates, there will bo at least two other
candidates In the Held and perhaps more.
That some of the leading politicians of tho
Ktato desire that Conger shall bo nominated
for governor Is evident, although they ure.
slow to commit themselves without know
ing lust what he will do. He Is now on
the ocean on his way home. Hundreds of
letters and telegrams will bo found waiting
for blm at San Francisco. In many of theso
ho will bo urged to become a candidate.
It Is claimed by those who ought to ,know
that at least two of the active candidates
for governor now In tho field have written
Conger that they stand ready to withdraw
from tho race and support him If he will
come nut ns a catididatc. It has been
claimed that Congressman Hull, who has
started for tho Philippines, has planned
to mcot Conger and talk over the situation
In Iowa before he arrives. This Is Im
probable, but Indicates how ready the peo
ple are to accept any talk about Conger.
Several well known Iowa politicians are
now on tho const nnd nro eald to be ready
to meet unci confer with Conger as soon
us ho arrives nnd to urge him to be a can
didate. Ho has said ho would not be a
candidate If he has to make a fight for tho
nomination. When he reaches home the
situation may appear different to hint.
Mule I .Much Divided.
Heports from nearly every county lu Iowa
regarding tho political situation ludlcato
that the stnto wa3 never moro badly broken
up In tho preliminary cumpalgn. There nro
several countlnes in tho Seventh congres
sional district, tho Des Moines district,
ready to go to Conger on tho slightest
provocation. Among these are Dallas, Mad
ison, Warren and Marion. Hut with Conger
out of the question tho district will be solid
for Ciiuimlus, and ho Is the only ouo of
tho six candidates who enn hope to havo
his own congressional district undivided.
Foster, who Is a candldato In the samo
county with Cummins, will have Clarko and
some other counties, hut will hardly got a
county In this district.
The primaries In this county will be held
a week from Saturday and thcro is no doubt
that Cummins will havo a largo majority
of the votes and gel tho delegation solid.
Reports Indicate that Cummins will also
have most of tho counties of the Second
district. Inasmuch as Cummins Is regarded
as In the lead In two or three counties each
In tho Fifth, Tenth nnd Kleventh districts
and will have support all through tho
northern part of Iowa, he stands at present
ns unquestionably tho strongest candldato
beforo his patty. However, tho sentiment
Is all against htm In tho southern and
sou'heastern part of tho state.
The next strongest candidate unquestion
ably Is Georgo D. Perkins of Sioux City.
Ho will havo the support of a good portion
of his district, which contains thirteen
counties. It Is reported thcro Is somo doubt
about his ability to curry Sac, Ida and Sioux
counties, but the others aro for him. In
addition, he will havo a following In Har
rison, Carroll, Crawford. Kmmot, Webstar,
Pocahontas and Palo Alto. Uesldes this,
Perkins will havo a following In somo coun
ties of the Third district nnd In the First
district. Somo of tho counties of the Ninth
district will prefor Perklus for second
choice. Efforts have been made to divide
Mr. Perkins' district with other candidates,
but not much headway appears to havo been
made lu that direction.
Cn nil Id it ey of John llcrrlott.
Kx-Trcasurer John Herriott Is tho can
didate of tho Ninth district, which in
eludes Pottawattamie county. Although ho
lives In tho extremo east end of tho dls
trlct, the district has usually been united
for any candidate from tho district, and
Herriott will havo the entire district, un
less It Is Hnrrlson county. The last week
Mr. Herriott has been at work among the
counties ot southeastern Iowa, but It Is
probablo ho will not have much following
at tho start outside of his own district.
The other candidates, Senators Hnrrlman
and Trowin. live In tho northeast part of
tho btate. Tho former will have most of
the Third district nnd the latter mont ot
tho Fourth district.
This leaves all the two southern tiers
of counties without any candldato claiming
them on account of geographical proximity
and also the counties of southeastern Iowa.
All this territory Is an open Held. Nat
urally It Is nearly all opposed to Cummins
nnd would favor Perkins or Hanirnuu ns
among tho present candidates, llut lu this
territory there Is u strong deslro that
Conger should bo n condldate. It ho In
not a cnndldato, then Colonel I). J. Palmer
of Washington will bo supported by many
of the delegates from tbo southeastern
part of tho state. Ho will not be a can
dldatc, becauso ho Is at present a state
olllclal nnd could not appropriately asl;
for tho place, llut tho delegates from
many of tho counties of the southeastern
part of tho stnto will bo old soldiers and
will favor an old soldier candldato above
nil others, and unless they can get Conger
will favor Palmer. Tho situation In re
gard to Major Samuel Mahon of Ottumwa
Is similar. He will not be n candidate It
Conger can bo Induced to enter tho race
oiilln extern Count I em.
Specific reports from some of the south
western Iowa counties show that the first
consideration Is to nominate Judgo .Towner
ror supremo Judge. Ills own county,
Adams, Is enthusiastically for him. Truior
county Is reported as favoring either Per
kins or Foster for governor. Hlnggold re
publicans are for Towner ilrst and nro not
ready to choose tho governor. Clurko
county will give Its delegation to Towner
for judge and Foster for governor. Decatur
county Is for Conger if ho Is a candldato.
or might be for Foster. Fremont will be
either for Hnrrlman or divided between
him and Perkins for governor. Montgom
ery county Is favoruble to Cummins or
Perkins, but will give Its vote to Herriott,
at least at tho beginning. In Shelby. Her
riott will bo loyally supported, but If It Is
necessary to havo a second choice It U
probable Foster will be favored. Cass will
bo for Herriott and against Cummins. Pot
tnwattamlo Is reported as ready to give
Herriott hiipport as a district candldato,
but willing to divide between Perkins and
Cummins when a second choice Is neces-
enry. Audubon will be for Herriott and
not for Cummins. Mills county will vote
for Herriott, but both Perkins and Cum
mins have friends there.
Oilier ( iiiiillilulr.
Heports from the various counties Indi
cate that all other contests nro tu be sub
ordinated to the one for governor. Tho
candidates for supreme Judge Tow net ,
Weaver, Church, Dewey and Ulshop all
havo follow Ings lu their Immediate Judi
cial districts, yet It Is evident that their
friends must await the outcome of the
gubernatorial contest. Towner Is the only
ono who Is lu a position to command un
questioned support from his delegates. In
asmuch as there Is no other candidate for
any state office in the Eighth congressional
district, and Congressman Hepburn Is de
sirous that Towner should realise hi am
bition, the district Is tn a position tu trade
Its support to good advantage.
Hut three candidates ht.vu come out for
lieutenant governor Editor Dave Hrant of
Clinton, Ilepreseniatlvo Klemnic of Wln-
nlshlek county aud Senator Penrose of
Tama. Hrant will have tho Second ills'-
trlct back of him. He Is comparatively
new In state politics, but served u term In
tho legislature with credit and is nn ag
gressive young republican. Klemme Is In
the legislature, but has no state acquain
tance. Penrose is much better known to
the state, but his own district will not bo
fur him.
Itiillrond Com in Inn I oik-r.
The fight on railroad commissioner 'a
somewhat peculiar. Colonel Welcome
Mowry of Tuma county n3plrcs to a second
term and a second nomination has always
been accorded every member. Hut It is
claimed that Mowry has not been suffi
ciently nggreuMvo and has favored tho rail
roads too much, und although he Is the
ono fnrmer candidate on tho commission ho
Is opposed. E. C. llrown of Sheldon tins
come out as a candidate, to oppose Mowry.
He Is badly situated for a light becauso the
distilcl will owe Its first ullegiauco to
Perkins, and at best llrown can hope to
have only a part of his district and the
hostility of tho rest. Hut still further to
help In defealng .Mowry, his opponents
have brought out Senntor Penrose of Tama
county for lieutenant governor, ami ho Is
being actively urged. Of course, the nomi
nation for lieutenant governor Is always
mado before that for railroad commis
sioner. If Penrose should be nominated
Mowry would be. out of the race. Penrose "a
friends say they will send a, delegation
to tho btato convention to work for both
candidates equally, but this is well under
stood to mean thnt there Is n movement
In Tama county to defeat Mowry and leave
tho county without any cnndldato on the
statu ticket.
KlenieiitN In Hit- (iiiiipitluu.
Thcro Is a clear dividing line In rcpub
Ilccn politics between tho old factions,
railroad and antl-rallroad, corporation nnd
autl-corporutlou, nnd this is In part a relic
of tho Inst senatorial light. It Is alleged
that llarrlmun and Foster represent tho
corporation Interests, that Cummins and
Herriott aro of tho untl-corporutlon fac
tious, while tho position of Perkins nnd
Trowin Is not entirely clear. Herriott while
on the stato executlvo council broke away
from Governor Shaw and the others. Cum
mins' following Is opposed bitterly to the
political Influence of Hlytho nnd Hubbard.
It Is charged against Harrlman and Foster
that they are especially favored
by the corporation Influences. Another
point being mado against Cummins is that
many ycurs ago bo was elected to the legis
lature on nn Independent ticket In opposi
tion to a regular republican nominee. This
was duo to tho prohibition troubles In tho
couuty. It is also said he voted for Gov
ernor Holes. Against Perkins It Is urged
tbnt whllo formerly a leader In nntl-rall-road
matters, ho voted while In congress
for appropriations for tho Missouri river
improvement at tho behest of tho railroad
companies and sought a settlement ot the
Sioux City & Pacific debt for the samo
reason. Tho fight for Herriott is being
mado on tho Jc3iie of higher assessment of
railroad property aud a strict following of
tho statutes.
CoiiiiiilshloiiN fir Iunn Men.
Five Iown men got commissions from
