DALLAS, Tex., April II. Thero was a
rueotlni; today between County Attorney
Shields of Omaha nnd 11. C. Hondurson,
who asserts thnt ho In one of tho Cudahy
kidnapers. ThlH mcctltiR was nrrnnged Sat.
urdny on n, Htntommt from Henderson to
tihlelda that ho would probably talk otter
havInK consulted his attorneys.
Mr. Shield said tonlRht that Henderson
nttll declined to inuko :i dctalli-il statement
tit his alleged connection with tho kidnap
ing nnd thnt his talk was full of Koncral
(turns nnd had llttlo of tho details thnt nro
wanted, He also Bald that Henderson is
cautious as io what hn soys about this caso,
though ho will converso volubly on other
subjects connected with Omaha. Mr. Shields
nald It was probnblo K. A. Cudahy and IiIh
lion would como to Dallas within tho next
few days to see Hcndeison,
MR. CUDAHY IS SKEPTICAL
AVantft full AsNiirnnri! from ('ittinly
Attorney Milcliln III-fori- Ho
Will jo Io Texim.
Tho teleKrnphlo reports received from
Dallas, Tex., Saturday night regai .g tho
poMlnl Idcntllicatlon of Henderson as ono
.f iho Cudahy kidnapers was received with
Interest by K. A. Cudahy, who Is not, how
over, Inclined to glvo them full credence.
Sunday afternoon Mr. Cudahy had a con
sultation with John C. Cowln, his attorney,
on the subject nnd whllo that couforenco
was In progress ho said to a Ueti reporter
"Thoro is nothing Incldcd about a visit
to Dallas. I havo heen tho report, but 1
have seen so many reportx since lust Do
comber that 1 plyco llttlo confidence In
them. At this tlmo I am uniting to hear
from County Attorney Shields, who Is In
Dallas, and who will wrlto mu his imprcs
Rlons. If ho thinks Henderson had nny
thing to do with the kidnaping I will tako
Kddlo and go down thuro and see if wo can
Identify hlui. Wo will not go, however, on
tho reports published."
Oeuernl Cowln said Sunday morning thnt
County Attorney Shields hnd gone to Dallaa
to uncertain tho facts In regard to Hender
son and would probably bo influenced In his
nctton In the Callahan caso by wl.nt ho
heard there.
In his solitary cell In tho county jail Jim
Callahan read with Interest tho report of
the partial conversion of tho county nt
torney to tho view that Henderson wns
connecto.l with tho kidnaping. To n guard
nt the jnll ho said:
"I did not bellovo that Henderson had
nnythlng do with It, nnd thought ho was
striving for n llttlo notoriety, but If ho
ran convince Judgo Shields It will let mo
out, for 1 don't know Henderson nnd ho
doesn't know me. I never had nnythlng to
do with tho ense, ns will bo proved, nnd
1 hope that If Henderson did havo some
thing to do with It ho can succeed In
breaking Into tho Douglas county Jail nnd
in letting mo get out."

DKS .MOINES, April 14. (Special.) The
political forces In Ion havo been so ma
nipulated of late that an unusual political
situation hag dex eloped. With six active
candidates for the republican nomination
for governor Ir. the field, each a man con
spicuous In the party, nnd nil of unnues
tlontd ability and fitness for the ofllce.
there Is a hesitancy which plainly Indicates
a waiting attitude 011 the part of the re
publicans. All ordinary explanations of this
fall to the ground, ami II Is practically
conceded ny all that the real reason for
tho hesitancy Is the hopo which many r -publicans
cherish, that Minister Conger,
when he returns homo tho latter part of
tho month, wilt consent to permit his nanio
to go beforo tho convention ns n candidate.
In that case a great many of the delegutcs
will porfor Conger oer either of tho six
candidates now In tho Held.
On tho other hand, If Conger definitely
takes himself out of the list of possible
candidates, thero will bo nt least two other
candidates in the Held anil perhaps more.
That somo ot the leading politicians of tho
Rtate desire that Conger shall be nominated
for governor Is evident, although they nro
slow to commit themselves without know
ing lust what he will do. He is now on
the ocean on his way hnnie. Hundreds of
letters and telegrams will be found waiting
for blm at San Francisco. In many of tucso
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 the field have written
Conger that they stand ready to withdraw
from tho race and support him If ho will
conic out as a candidate. It has been
claimed that Congressman Hull, who has
started for the Philippines, has planned
to meet Conger and talk over the situation
In Iowa beforo he arrives. This is Im
probable, but Indicates how ready the peo
ple nro to accept any talk about Conger.
Several well known Iowa politicians are
now on tho const nnd nro tnld to be ready
to meet nnd confer with Conger us soon
as he arrives and to urge him to be a can
didate. He has said he would not bo a
candidate If he has to make a fight for tho
nomination. When he reaches home tho
situation may appear different to him.
Mute U M110I1 Dltliloil.
Reports from nearly every county In Iowa
regarding tho political situation ludlcato
that the state wa3 never more badly broken
up In the preliminary campaign. There nrs
several countlnes lu tho Seventh congres
sional district, tho Des Molncs district,
ready to go to Conger on the slightest
provocation. Among these are Dallas, Mud
Uon, W.irren nud Marlon. Hut with Conger
out of the question the district will be solid
for Cummins, and ho Is the only ono of
tho six candidates who can hopo to havo
his own congressional district undivided.
Foster, who Is a candidate In the same
county with Cummins, will hnvo Clarke ami
souio other counties, but will hardly got a
county In this district.
Tho primaries In this county will bo held
a week from Saturday and thero Is no doubt
that Cummins will have a largo mujorlty
of tho votes and got tho delegation solid.
Hoports Indicate thnt Cummins will nlso
have most of tho counties of the Second
district. Inasmuch as Cummins Is regarded
as In the lead In two or three counties each
lu the Fifth, Tenth nnd Kleventh districts
uud will havo support all through tho
northern part of Iowa, he stands at present
as unquestionably tho strongest cnndldato
beforo his paity. However, the sontlment
Is all against him in the southern and
sou'heastern part of tho state.
The next strongest candidate unquestion
ably is Oeorgo D. Perkins of Sioux City.
Ho will have the support of a good portion
of his district, which contains thirteen
eouuties. It Is reported there Is some doubt
about his ability to carry Sac, Ida anil Sioux
counties, but the others are for him. In
addition, he will havo a fallowing in Har
rison, Carroll, 1'rawford. Kmmot, Webster,
Pocahontas and Palo Alto. Besides this,
Perkins will have n following In some coun
ties of tho Third district and In the First
district. Some of the counties of the Ninth
district will prefer Perklus for second
choice. Efforts have been made to divide
Mr. Perkins' district with other enndldatoa,
but not much hendway appears to havo been
made in that direction.
Ciimlldiiry of .lolin llerrlott.
nx-Treasurer John llerrlott Is tho can
didate of tho Ninth district, which in
cludes Pottawattamie county. Although ho
lives in tho extreme east end of tho dis
trict, tho district has usually been united
for nny cnndldato from tho district, and
llerrlott will havo the entire district, un
less It Is Harrison county. Tho lust week
Mr. llerrlott has been nt work among the
counties ot southeastern Iowa, but It Is
probable ho will not havo much following
at the start outside of his own district.
Tho other candidates, Senators Harrlnian
and Trowln, live In tho northeast part of
tho state. Tho former will havo most of
the Third district nnd the lntter most ot
the Fourth district.
This leaves nil the tu southern tiers
of counties without nny candidate claiming
them 011 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
anil would favor Perkins or Harrimau as
among the present candidates. Hut lu this
territory thero Is a strong deslro that
Conger should bo n candidate. If ho Io
not a candidate, then Colonel D. J. Palmer
of Washington will bo supported by many
of tho dologatos from tho nouthcastern
part of the state. He will not be a can
didate, because ho Is at present a statu
official nnd could not appropriately asl;
for Iho place. Hut tho delegates from
many of tho counties of tho southeastern
part of tho state will bo old soldiers and
will fnvor nn old soldier cnndldato above
nil others, nnd unless they can get Conger
will fnvor Palmer. Tho situation In re
gard to Major Samuel Mnhon of Ottumwa
Is similar. He will not be a candidate It
Conger can be Induced to enter tho ruee.
oolllU cxtl'l'll Cillllltll'l.
Specific reports from some of the south,
western Iowa counties show that the first
consideration is to nominate Judgo .Towner
for pupreme Judge. Ills own county.
Adams, Is enthusiastically for hint. Taylor
county is reported as favoring cither Per
kins or Foster for governor. Ringgold re
publicans are for Towner llrst and nro not
ready to choose tho governor. Clnrko
county will give Its delegation to Towner
for Judge and Foster for governor. Decatur
county Is for Conger If ho Is a candidate,
or might be for Foster. Fremont will be

him nnd Perkins for governor. Montgom
ery county Is favorable to Cummins or
Perkins, but will give ItR vote to llerrlott.

rlott will bo loynlly supported, but If It Is
necossury to have a second rholco It la
probable Foster will be favored. Cass will
bo for llerrlott ond against Cummins. Pot

llerrlott bupport as 0 district candidate,
but willing to divide between Perkins and
Cummins when a second choice Is neces

for llerrlott, but both Perklus and Cum
mins have friends there.
lit her ( illlillillllrN.
HcporM from the various counties Indi
cate that all other contests aro to bo sub
ordinated to the one for governor. The
candidates for supreme Judge Tow net,
Weaver, Church, Dewey ond Illshop nil
havo follow ings In their Immediate Judi
cial districts, yet it Is evident thiit their
friends must await the outcome of the
gubernatorial contest. Towner Is the only
one who is In a position to command un
questioned support from his delegates. In
asmuch ns there Is no other candidate for
nny state ofllce In the Klghth congressional
district, nnd Congressman Hepburn Is de
sirous that Towner should realise hH am
bition, the district Is In a position to trade
Its support to good odvontuRe.
Hut three candidates lu.vo come out for
lieutenant govemer Kdltor Dase Ilr.int of
Clinton, Representative Klcninio of Wlu
nlshlek county and Senator Penrose of
Tama. Ilrant will base the Second dis
trict back of him. He is comparatively
new In state politics, but served a term In
tho legislature with credit nnd Is on ng
gresslvi) young republican. Klemme is In
tbe legislature, but has 110 state acquain
tance. Penrose Is much better known to
the state, but his own district will not be
for li 1 tu.

The fight on railroad commissioner "a
somewhat peculiar. Colonel Welcome
Mo wry of Tama county n3plrcs to a second
term nnd 11 second nomination has always
been accorded every member. Hut It is
claimed that Mowry has not been sum
clcntly nggretstvo nnd hatt favored tho rail
roads too much, and although he Is the
0110 farmer caudldatc 011 the commission ho
Is opposed. K. C. Drown of Sheldon has
come out ns a cnndldato to opposo Mowry.
He Is badly situated for a fight because the
(list 1 let will owe Its first allegiance tu
Perklus, mid at best Hroun cnu hope to
have only n part of his district nnd the
hostility of tho rest. Hut still further to
help In defealng Mowry, his opponents
have brought out Senator Penrose of Tama
county for lieutenant governor, and ho U
being actively urged. Of course, tho nomi
nation for lieutenant governor Is always
made before that for railroad commit
sloner. If Penrose should be nominated
Mowry would bo out of the race. Ponrnsr'a
friends say they will send a, delegation
to the state convention to work for both
coudldatcs equally, but this is well under
stood to mean that there Is a movement
In Tama county to defeat Mowry and leave
the county without any candidate on the
state ticket.
1-1 cm 11 In In llu- iiiiipulun.
Thero Is 11 clear dividing line In repub
lican politics between tbo old factions,
railroad nnd nntl-rallroad, corporation and
autl-corporutlou, nnd this Is in part n relic
of Iho Inst senatorial light. It Is alleged
that Harrlman and Foster represent tho
corporation Interests, that Cummins and
llerrlott nro of tho antl-corporatlon fac
tious, while tho position of Perkins and
Trowln is not entirely clear. llerrlott whllo
on the stato executlvo council broke away
from Governor Shaw and the others. Cum
mins' following is opposed bitterly to tho
political Influence of Hlytho and Hubbard.
It Is charged against Harrlman and Foster
that they are especially favored
by the corporation Influences. Another
point being made against Cummins Is that
many years ago bo was elected lo the legis
lature on an Independent ticket In opposl
Hon to a regular republican nominee. This
was duo to tho prohibition troubles In tho
county. It Is also said hs voted for Gov
ernor Holes. Against Perkins it Is urged
that whllo formerly a leader in anti-railroad
matters, ho voted while In congress
for appropriations for tho Missouri river
Improvement at tho bcheet of tho rnllroad
companies and sought a settlement of tho
Sioux City & Pacific debt for tho same
reason. Tho light for llerrlott is being
made ou the Issue of higher asFessment of
rullrond property and n strict following of
tho statutes.

DEADWOOD. S. D April 14. (Special )
The Homestake company has paid a dll
dead of J.llu.OOO for the llrst quarter of this
year, ending March SI. This Is the largest
amount by nearly one-half paid by nny of
the gold producing tnluos of the world.
Ono hundred nnd twenty-four mining rom
pnnlr.i in the United .Stales paid 11 total
of Say.PCO.OIJ In dividends for the first
quarter of this year. The Homestake com
pany will probably pay the TiO cents per
share each month until next fall, when It
Is likely that a decided Increase will be
made. Ily that time all of the old mills
will be In operation nnd tho new cyanide
plant will bo turning nut bullion
Tho Holt Development company's repre
sentative hero has received instructions
from headquarters ot Colorado Springs to
take up all stock in this city and Lend not
sold nnd upon which options were held.
Tho company has sold all the stock that
will be offered for the present, which Is
12i,000 shores. This consignment brought par
value, or ?l per ahare. There have been a
number of offers for tho stock In Canada,
New York, Hoston, Milwaukee and other
cities that were refused, for the rcaeor.
that the parties wanted the control. It is
ono of a very few instances in the Hlack
Hills where mining stock has sold for par
value on a prospect. Thero seems to be
a universal feeling that the Homcstako ore
lode will be encountered with the shaft
that Is now being sunk.
Iti-opt'ii I'liiiim S(iinii DIM,
The Pluma Mining company is making
preparations to open tho atnmp mill for
work again. A largo force of men has been
nt work In the old workings of tho mine
for Bevernl weeks nnd now 01c bodies have
been discovered. One shoot of sillrloliu
ore of good value has been discovered. Two
of the officers of tbo company have been
In the hills from Des Moines, la.
A big shoot of oro has been discovered
In the Hello Eldredge liiluc, In Spruce gulch,
which Is owned by Aaron Dunn and nsso
olntes of this city. Tho oro .averages about
$20 per ton gold. Preparations nro being
made to ship tho ore to tho smelter.
A cyanide plant is to be built nt the
Gu8tln-Mlnervn mines, In Htacktalt district,
this spring. The ore Is a low grade ce
ment proposition. Tho cyanide plant will
be worked with tho forty-stamp mill.
Other properties In this district aro being
successfully worked by this process. Tho
Deadbroke mlno will soon bo producing
oro again by a newly-organized company.
Dxpi'i'l lo Till. i' t t lloml,
Tho Minneapolis parties who aro buying
the Gilt Edge nnd Dakota .Maid mines, in
the Strawberry gulch district, aro expect
lug to tako up the bond on tho properties
May 1, when due. This will call for nbout
$200,000. Doth mines havo been thoroughly
developed nud they havo produced consider
nblo ore, the Gilt Edge hnving been at ono
tlmo ono ot tho largest producers In tho
country. It Is stated that as soon ns tho
option Is token work on n largo cyanide
plant will begin.
Work Is to bo resumed at the mlno of
tho Illinois-Dakota Mining company, nt tho
head of Strawberry gulch. A ledge of
oro has been encountered that nssays about
$C3 In silver nnd $40 In lead. Eastern enp
ltullsts havo put up money for tho develop
ment of tho property. W. J. McGoflln of
Lead is proBident of the company.
Tho steel hoist Is Hearing completion ot
the Undo Sam mine, in tho Elk creek dis
trict. As soon (ib it is finished all of tho
Blxty stamps will bo started up. Only
twenty stamps aro dropping on ore that. Is
being hoisted through the old hoist. This
mlno now has 11 Iedgo of free-milling oro
over fifty feet wide. It Is loented south
of Lead nbout twelve miles, on the Homo
stnko oro belt.
To .SutiMfy Detroit .t m-iiiUmoil.
A Colorado mining export will arrive In
this city the latter part of this month for
tho purpose of Bottling some questlous for
the Detroit t Deadwood company, which Is
operating on Annie creek, in the Ragged
Top district. ThiB company has been un
fortunate In snmo of Its mining enterprises
In tho Hlack Hills, duo to the advise given
by eastern so-called experts. A largo prop
erty has been leased In tho nagged Top
district and n 100-ton cyanldo plant has
been erected. Tho oro averages high enough
to pay a good profit when treated by this
process. Frank C. Androws of Detroit,
who is heavily Interested In Cripple Creek
property, Is now ono of tho principal ownors
of tho Detroit & Deadwood company. It
is believed that the proposition In the Rag
ged Top district can bo worked successfully
with proper manogemcnt.
Cyiuihli- I'lnnl in Ili-nr (inleli.
A cyanldo plant is to bo erected at tho
property of the Deail wood -near Gulch com
pany, lu the Hear gulch district. Ore bodies
have been uncovered that have good values.
TIiIb Hear gulch district is rapidly coming
before tho notice of mining men, owing to
tho rich placer gold In tho gulches nnd tho
many deposits ot tin ore, which nro soon
lo bo worked. Tho Gold Coin company will
soon erect a steam hoisting plant In the
district.
A stamp mill has been ordered by Iho
Custor Peak Mining company, which will
operato on oro about six miles south of
