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. . Married. Arbtithnot-Coon.

To the Editor. Will you kindly state when it was General James H. Weaver was within two votes of defeating the I Ion. John 1 1. Gear for the re publican Humiliation for .governor of Iowa, and give his career in seek ing office, either elective or appoin tive, since that timer C. II. OunokN. 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. Inter Ocean.
