BROKEN BOW, Neb.. Aug. 4-(Speclal.)
The long drought was broken In this part
of the county Tuesday night when a sc. ere
rainstorm mingled with plenty of hall
swept over town. The wind nt times
reached the proportions of a small tornado,
breaking off branches of trees, blowing
over telephone poles and creating other
Mnall damage. Out In the country the storm
seemed to be mnro severe, commitlng many
vnKurles along Its path of destruction. At
the farm of Thonms Noonnn, south of town,
the barn was lifted bodily and set on top
of a large corncriu that had previously been
unroofed, while all of the outbuildings were
blown to pieces. Mrs. Robert Br.ndle,

to see her stable containing one horse ac-

Is a question that Is hard to answer, but
there Is an Interesting rtory connected
with the occurrence and several features
of more than common Interest. Tuesday
night he brought his outfit home and left
lt'ln'the back yard. About 1:30 o'clock
Johnson was aroused by hi wife, who had
been awake, and looking out of the window
had discovered the separator on fire. He
hastened out to the burning machine, but
he says that although the fire was Just
started he discovered that It spread with a
sweep over the whole machine, Indicating
that oil or some other highly lnflamable
material had been' spread over It. In a few
minutes the machine waa a mass of ruins.
Johnson was thoroughly convinced from
the manner In which the machine was con
sumed that It was eevered with oil. and the
finding of an empty can near the scene
added to his suspicions. He has not an
enemy that ha knows of In the world, which
adds to the mystery. The only ones he
thinks who could have wished him 111 era
other operators who might be displeased at
his Intention to pull over across the river
and thresh at the old rate for the Hamil
ton county farmers, whjle other operator
have lately raised the price.
The machine which was burned was a
large Oaar-Scott,- which Johnson had taken
from the cars hera only a few days before.
The separator cost $1,300 and was Insured
for $oo.

Inspector Dew would not be likely to give
out Information In Quebec, which he had
not first cabled to headquarters here.
Officers Go for Prisoners. a
The superintendent pointed out also that
had Crlppen confessed It would have been
necessary to send Sergont Mitchell to
Quebec with depositions taken In London
In order to gain the extradition of the pris
oners. . '
Sergeant Mitchell accompanied by two
wardresses, who will take charge of Miss
Leneve, sailed this morning on the steamer
Lake Manitoba for Quebec.
The question whether Crlppen and his
companion have been married has been
revived because of Its bearing on the
status of the woman as a possible witness
against Crlppen. .. It Is known that the
police, hoping Miss Leneve will make a
strong witness for the crown, but If It Is
proven that shft Is the wife of'the doctor,
she may refuse absolutely to take the stand
against her husband.
Discussing this feature of the case, Sup
erintendent Froest said an exhaustive offi
cial Investigation had failed to produce any
evidence of such a marriage.
Inspector Devr Disappears.
The Quebeo provincial' authorities were
Insistent today that Dr. Crlppen had not at
tempted a confession. They maintained
this attitude in the face of persistent ru
mors that some aort of a statement had
been obtained from the prisoner.
This much la known: Inspector Dew and
the Canadian detectives have not visited
Crlppen'e cell or had any direct communi
cation with him since yesterday morning
Dew breakfasted early today at his board
ing house and disappeared. Whether he
left town or not could not be determined.
but members of the provincial police ex
pressed the belief that he had sought se
clusion in order to avoid the annoyance
of being obliged to deny frequently erron-
ous statements attributed-to him.
Crlppen has changed much In facial ex
pression since he arrived here Monday. He
Is not allowed to shave and a four-days

IS FAMOUS CLASSIC EVENI
Arrhdnlc Fllly Leads Entry in Each
Heat and Three to One Odds
Rcfore the Ilnce Are
Justified.
DETROIT. Mich., Aug. 4.-The Merchants
and Manufacturers' $10,000 stake was won
easily in straight heats at the fair grounds
yesterday by the little black mare, Dudle
Archdale, with the veteran Geers In the
sulky. The race was too onesided to be to
any great degree exciting, and the odds of
3 to 1 011 Dudle Archdale over the entire
field minimized the Interest taken In the
betting.
Today's feature was the third $10,000
event that the little black trotter has won
In as many weeks, the other two having
been In the Furniture Manufacturers' stake
at Grand Rapids and the Paper mills
$10,000 event at Kalamazoo.
Geers was applauded from the crowded
grandstand each time he hobbled out on a
crutch to take his sulky, not having re
covered entirely from his accident at
Grand Rapids. This week's meeting Is the
second 1 c ribbon Detroit meeting at
which 1 r Geers won both the Mer
chants anu Manufacturers' and the Cham
ber of Commerce stakes, two o the big
gest annual events of the trotting turf.
The 2:20 trot went to Joan after Sable
Maid had captured the first heat. Wataga
led the first heat to the half mile but
then dropped back. Sable Maid won her
heat in a close finish, but In the remaining
heats the time was faster and Joan had
the speed.
May Day took the first heat of the 2:12
pace In 2:064, In the second heat she led
Into the stretch but broke badly and fell
back to ninth position, Peter Pan win
ning the head. May Day won the next
two heats from Peter Pan in slower time,
the third heat affording one of the most
exciting finishes of the afternoon.
Alcyfras and Walter Hal each took a heat
In the 2:07 race, which was not finished.
