DBS MOINKS, July 11. (Special Tele
gram.) The death ot United States Senator
John It, Hear was totally unexpected In
Des Moines and was a great shock to tho
wholo city, desplto Its almost unanimous
opposition to htm when ho defeated A. 11.
Cummins of Des Moines for senator last
winter. Speculation as to his successor was
rifo all day, but Governor Shaw is In Colo
rado nnd none of the other prominent po
litical managers, except Chairman Weaver,
was In the city. Congressman Dolllvcr was
here, however, having como to debate at
the Chautauqua, and through him and
through communication with Fort Dodgo
politicians It was learned that ho will be
a candidate for tho place. The friends ot
A. B. Cummins' of Des Moines also an
nounce that he will be a candidate. Dis
patches from Oskaloosa state that Congress
man Laccy will also bo a candidate. It is
known that Covet nor Shaw has aspirations
In this direction. These tour men are the
only ones connected with tho ofilce In the
public eyo nt this time.
(lovernor Shaw controls tho situation. Ho
has the power to appoint to till tho vacancy
In tho term which ends next March, There
l a question, howover, ns to whether he
has tho power to appoint u man to fill thnt
part of tho new term between March next
year and tho election by the legislature In L
tho winter of 1902. However this may be,
ho has tho power to appoint a successor
and may also call a special session of the
loglslaturo to elect to fill tho vacancy. It
Is conceded that Governor Shaw will not
resign, bargaining with the lleutennnt gov
ernor to appoint him to fill the vacancy,
and his friends thercforo regard his chances
ns not very excellent, t Is a very em
barrassing position for the govornor and
his friends. Thero is unauthorized gossip
to tho etfect that ex-Governor William Lar
rabeo will bo urged upon the governor, on
the theory that ho would not caro to havo
tho long full term. It Is n foregone con
clusion that Governor Shaw will never ap
point A. B. Cummins of Des Moines and It
Is likewise as lmprobablo that he will ap
point Congressman Dolllver. Tho names of
Congreteman I-icoy, ex-Congressman
Georgo D. Perkins of Sioux City, Congress
man J. A. T. Hull, Congressman HepDurn,
Congressman Cousins and many others have
been mentioned In connection with the po
sition. Tho frtends of Cummins said today that
they prefer a special session of tho legisla
ture. This will cost about $20,000 and Is
opposed In somo quarters as useless. Gov
ernor Shaw's friends and the menus ot
Mr. Cummins are believed to represent the
larger part ot tho party and slnco they
bellove It fair to hold a session of tho legis
lature to allow tho people to select tho
senator tho opinion prevails that this will
bo done.
Congressman Dolllver said tonight: "Tho
death of Senator Gear removes ono of the
most famous and noted characters In tho
history of Iowa. For forty years he has
been a faithful servant of tho people or
this state. He dies In the fullness of years
and Io mourned by all the people. No man
has been moro closely Identified with tho
development of Iowa and no man will take
a moro honored rank in the annals ot tho
state."

Fort Dodgo'o censiiB returns show a popula
tion thnt will approximate 12,300. ThlB much
was learned from an nuthoratlve rource, and
tho fact that the 12,000 mark Is passed has
sot tho city wild with Joy. Fort Dodgo heads
tho list of Iowa cities for percentage of in
crease of population, excepting only the lit
tle railroad towns that have sprung up uur
lnc tho last dozen months. Iu 1890 the
population was a little over 4,500, since when
there has been a great reeling or rivalry uc
tween this city nnd Waterloo. Fort Dodge
won out In the state census of 1S90, and
slnco then the two cities havo been running

Thero will bo no street fair In Fort DoJge
this year, contrary to early announcement
nnd wide advertisement. At n night session
of tlo olllcers Just held It was decided to
call tho fair off and, os no explanations wcro
given, great has been the surprise and curi
osity to know the cause. It is supposed that
the fair was declared off because of a disa
greement with the saloon men of the city,
who formed a "trust" and pledged them
selves to only nominal support, notwith
standing tho fact that they would reap tho
harvest.
