Matter In District Conrt.
Frederick 1 Pace, who was a passenger
on the streeC car which on the afternoon
of February It, this year, was struck by
a freight train at the Great Western rail
road .crossing on South Main street, yes
terday filed suit In the district court against
the street railway company. Although In
two counts In the petition the plaintiff
claims he was damaged to the extent of
$10,000, he only asks tl.999 of the motor
company, presumably to prevent the case
being transferred to the United States
court. Pace was on his way' to the Rock
Island depot and was standing on the
rear platform of the motor with Roy Fel
ton, the young Neola banker who was
fatally injured. He claims the force of
the collision threw him against the Iron
handrail on the platform. Injuring hi left
knee severely. i

Officer Coming; for Davis.
Detective Sergeant Burllngarrte I ex
pected here tonight from Washington, D.
C, for H. C. Davis, the alleged check
worker at the Grand hotel Tuesday. The
police department In Washington Is under
federal control, so no requisition will be
necessary to take Davis back there. Davis
is believed to be aware of this and has
stated his willingness to go back.
Davis refuses to admit that his name Is
Harding,' but at the same time ho made no
effort to dlnprove he Is the man wanted in
Washington. When a Pinkerton detective
from Omaha saw Davis at the city Jail
yesterday and accosted him as "Harding,"
Davis replied that his name was Davis, and
not Harding.
"Well. I know you under the name of
Harding," said the Pinkerton detective.
"That may be so, but it does not make
my name Harding any the more," an
swered Davis.
Davis, or Harding, was arraigned in police
court yesterday morning on the charge of
being a fugitive from Justice. He declared
his name was Davis; that he was born
In Georgia and was 62 years of age. When
Informed that he would be held until the
arrival of an officer from Washington,
Davis replied: "He ought to bo here to
morrow night. If he started Tuesday."

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
DES MOINES. May 29. (Special.) Al
though Oovernor Cummins has not au
thorised the announcement of the fact. It
has long been known that his friends will
Insist upon his being a candidate for the
United Btates senate beforo the primaries
next year. It Is regarded by oil who are
at all well Informed In the matter that
Scnutor Allison will not aesin consent to
being a candidate for the office. It is
known that his health Is such that at
best he can hope only lo live a very quiet
life for a few years. He cannot be active
in his work at Washington, and as for en
gaging in an active campaign beforo the i
people, that Is out of the question. It Is
stated. . It Is known that a number of the
politicians of the state are planning to go
before the people, among them ex-Congressman
Lacey and Congressman Bob
Cousins. As Oovernor Cummins has been
a candidate for the senate before and a
good many of his friends feel that he
was unfairly deprived of the place, they
InslBt that he shall go before the people
and make a campaign, asking for their
approval on his candidacy. At no tlmo
has the governor considered the possibility
Of his being a candidate for vice president
or any other office, and the recent talk
to that effect, It Is charged, Was Inspired
by those who desired to shelve him and
to prevent his getting into the senatorial
race.
Iowa and the Presidency.
Some interesting Information has Just
been quietly passed about in regard to the
work of securing the Iowa delegation to
the next national convention. A determined
effort has been made to force the Taft
boom to the front and the secretary of war
Is coming to the state next month to help It
along; but since the announcement In
Washington that Taft is for tariff revis
ion some of the leaders In the Taft move
ment have suddenly faced about. The
rooBt conspicuous of those who have been
talking for Taft In Iowa are those who
have all along Insisted that the tariff must
not be touched. The announcement of the
position that Taft has taken has caused
a sensation among these people. Now the
word has gone forth that Iowa must be
for Speaker Cannon on the ground that
he Is next neighbor to Iowa and that his
views on the tariff conform to the prevail
ing views In Iowa. It Is also learned that
the effort to secure the delegation direct
for-Fairbanks will be given up and that the
work of the high tariff people will be to
get the delegation for Cannon and under
no event to permit it to go to Taft or any
one holding his view. This may force the
progressives of Iowa into line for Taft.
They have taketf the position that Roosevelt
must be the candidate again, though they
have not expressed themselves as in any
way opposed to Taft. They will try to se
cure a delegation for Roosevelt which may
go lo Taft if that Is the best thing to be
done, and In all events to prevent the nom
ination of Cannon or Fairbanks.
Looking; Into Freight Rnte.
De Moinc business men have discov
ered that they are at a disadvantage In
the matter of freight rates Into South Da
kota and Nebraska and declare that they
hav discovered that they can save by
sending goods to Sioux City, then resha
ping them west. They Insist that they
ought to be able to do business direct with
point outside the state and they are pre
paring, through the Commercial associa
tion, to make a complaint before the Inter
state Commerce commission.
Hermit Will Have to Mot.
A. Peterson, a man who ha lived for
upward of thirty year In a little shack
near Fortieth and Forest avenue, has ap
pealed to the Humane society for care.
He will have to move. He Is said to have
taken up his abode at this point about
thirty years ago because of some trouble
he had, and at that time the place was
far out In the country. Now the street
cars come near to his place. The property
was owned by a man who did not molest
Peterson, but recently It has been sold and
will be platted.
Opposed to ConTlet Labor.
When the labor unions of the state go
Into convention at Keokuk June 51 It will
be with the firm determination to take
such effectual action as to Influence the
State Board of Control to abolish the sys
tem of convict contract labor. If there la
nothing else done at the state convention,
this work will be energetically rushed.
Their basis of attack on the system Is the
