MANY FREMONT VOTERS.
Eighteen Men In Louisa County Cast
Ballot for General in 1856.
Wapello, Feb. 14.—Wapello people
confidently believe that there are in
Wapello the largest number of men
now living who in 1856 cast their vote
for Fremont and who nave since that
time voted straight republican tick
ets than any other city of its size In
the state. Eighteen men living in
this vicinity, all but three of which
are now living in Wapello city, voted
for General Fremont in 1856. None
of these gentlemen are ashamed of the
record the republican party has made
and for half a century have been firm
supporters of its principals.
They are: James Hifcklin, N.
Crutchfield, J. W. Crutcnfield, Sr.,
Henry Keler, J. _. Sweeney, W. S.
Kremer, John Hale,' George Grasham,
John Saunders, Simoon Limbocker, F.
M. Oug, George Reichley, Ziba Krme
er, J. B. McCullough, R. E. Archibald,
Harris Mowey, John Peters, Jr., and
Jesse Bailor.
It is to be hoped that the meeting of
Fremonters, which is planned for the
near future, may be held in Burling
ton, being located in an older portion
of the state and therefore more like
ly to contain a larger number of these
venerable republicans.

Colonel Temple remained here to

WAR SECRETS
(Continued from Page 1).
talk" to me on account of his
deafness."
Discussing results of the fighting
Kuropatkin says: "Thus ended our
first attempt to adopt the offensive. It
cost about 10,000 men. Of the causes
of the failure, the chief was. of course
negligence in failing to seriously pre
pare for storming Sandepu, .indicating
an absence of respect for our, resource
ful enemy, which he deserved. Such
disregard for the enemy was notice
able throughout the whole war on the
part of almost all the higher command
ing officers on their arrival at the
front. But after the first collision
this contempt was
changed, into almost extreme overesti
mate of his work."
Retire Before Attack Comes.
As showing the absence of proper
communication between the command
er of the army and the various corps,
Kuropatkin says portions of the Fif
teenth division retired without per
mission and without awaiting the en
emy's attack. Grippenberg later re
ported that he was ill and left for St.
Petersburg.
"His manner of proceeding in this
matter," says Kuropatkin, "set a most
deplorable example, both to those un
der him and to other armies, and was
calculated to undermine discipline. His
expressed opinion that the campaign
might' be considered lost, and that a
retreat, first to Mukden and then to
Harbin, was necessary, produced dan
gerous bewilderment in tne minds of
the more faint hearted, which was
even more harmful than a partial de
feat of one or another division of our
troops."
Coming to the fighting before Muk
den, Kuropatkin says quick measures
were necessary to save the city. Its
intense was intrusted to General Kaul
bars.
"I again," continues Kuropatkin,
"insisted upon the necessity for
speedy action and gave Kaulbars full
freedom in carrying out this order.
Kaulbars did not carry it out, giving
as an excuse 'the nonarrival of troops
belonging to the second army."
Vivid Tale of Nogi's Victory.
How Kaulbars tailed to stop General
Nogi's victorious advance is related
with much detail anu constitutes in
full a vivid recital of the blunders,
cross purposes, incapacity, and-conse
quent disaster.
"Kaulbars was ordered Feb. 15 by
the commander-in-chief immediately
to ascertain the precise strength of the
enemy, the direction of their move
ments, and their intentions. These
orders frequently were repeated, but
no one obeyed them."

MRS. SARAH JANE MADISON DIES
EARLY THIS MORNING AT THE
HEADLEY RESIDENCE
From Friday's Daily.
Mrs. Sarah Jane Livingston Madi
son, widow of the late Captain Gregg
Madison passed away at 4 o'clock this
morning at the home of her daughter,
Mrs. Corinth Headley, 521 East Main
street. Mrs. Madison was 67 year3
of age. She is survived by one broth

and that he looked favorably on Mc

cemetery.
Came Here in 1850.
Miss Sarah Jane Livingston was
born in Shelby county, Indiana, May
7, 1839. She was the (.'.aughter of Mr.
and Mrs. Isaiah Livingston. In 1850
sne, with hef parents, removed to this
state, settling on a farm about ten
miles south of Ottumwa in Davis coun
ty. This tarm is still owned by the
family, Mrs. Maiy Rigg now resid
ing there.
In 1862 she was iited in marriage
to Gregg Madison of Davis county
and moved with him to this city in
1879. Mr. Madison was the owner
and operator of the first saw mill ever
used in this section of the state and
later was one of the promoters of the
first bridge that ever spanned the Des
Moines river at Ottumwa.
Husband Enters Army.
Mr. Madison was also engaged in
the general merchandise business in
this city and later enlisted in the vol
unteer regiment which was called out
during the latter years of the war. Mr.
Madison had an excellent record as
a soldier and leader and won the title
of captain, by v.-ich he was known
until his death, which occurred in
1892.
Health Failed.
From the time of the death of her
husband, Mrs. Madison's health be
came impaired and she was on a gra
dual physical decline until her death,
which occurred this morning. Mrs.
Madison formerly resided on West
Fourth street, but "f late has been so
helpless that it was necessary for her
to live with one of her children.
Besides her relatives, Mrs. Madison
leaves hosts cf friends in the commun
ity to mourn her loss. She was a kind
and loving wife and a dutiful mother
to her children.
The Crowley Funeral.
The remains of the late Mrs. Anna
Crowley were laid to rest yesterday
nnforhinatelv morning in the Calvary cemetery. Fu
neral services were held at the Sacred
Heart church at 9 o'clock, Rev. James
Foley officiating. The pallbearers were
Messrs. John Crowley, Matthew Crew,
Phillip Mulligan, Peter Maloney, Pat
rick Doogan and James Denefe.
takes of which the Japanese took full
advantage Kuropatkin's "conclusions"
say "Kaullars, in spite of the com
mander-in-chief's orders to begin the
attack, remained inactive and did not
even know the disposition of' troops
under his command."
Troops Never in Action.
Details oi forces at the disposal of
Kaulbars are tabulated. It is shown
that "down to Feb. 25, thirty-five bat
talions never went inco action, while
the Japanese were successfully carry
ing on a turning movement before
their vei/ eyes. At that time," Kuro
patkin continues, "the commander-in
chief ordered General Kaulbars to
send all the trocps could to the
right bank of the river. He did ex
actly the contrary, moving two regi
ments over to the left bank. We
could nave concentrated over 200 bat
tillions and thrown thom against Nogi.
Kaulbars not. only disobeyed the order
to throw troop a iross river, but,
having lost five days, he went so far
in allowing the turning ipovement,
that Feb. 22 part of his forces were
still operating, not against Nogi, but
against Oku's left wing.
"The loss of timo an the weakness
of the force opposed to Nogi consti
tute the entire explr.nation of our fail
ure at Mukden."
The book contains the text of Gen
eral Kuropatkin" reports to the Em
peror, in which he enlarges upon the
causes of the defeat at Mukden. Else
where, however, Kuropatkin frankly
admits to the emperor he- himself was
much to blame for the Mukden defeat,
saying he ditl not insist sufficiently,
bfcfore the battle upon a strong re
serve for the decisive moment.

Mr. Smith commenced the action,
alleging that the child Is being raised
in a home-where the conditions do not
tend toward its best moral develop
ment. After hearing a portion of the
evidence last evening, the case was f4"*"
continued until Saturday, because of
the absence of the witnesses.
Yesterday Wren Lane was arraign

ly house. He was fined $20.

Child's Voice Could
Not Rouse Grandpa
Wayland, Feb. 14.—"Grandpa, grand- j£ '.
pa, wake up! I have come to see you,"
blithely sang out the little 9-year-old
granddaughter of William Williams of
this place as she ran into the old gen
tlema.n's house Tuesday afternoon af-
But the childish voice sounded on amy
ears -loaf to little girts' calls and child
ish caresses fell on hands stilled in
death.
Shoclced by the unnatural quiet of
her aged grandfather the little one at&fe
once recognized the presence of death: Jf
and hurrying to the telephone told her
mother of her dreadful discovery.
Neighbors were soon there and it was
indeed found that the old gentleman
had peace! ully died in his old arm
chair while reading.
Mr. Williams, who was 76 years of fjs.
age, was a widower a*111 lived alone
here. He had peen enjoying good
health and was about town in the fore- "-.
noon and in the afternoon had been .? .t
about more or less. Not an hour be
fore his death occurred he was seen' ""1
about as spry as ever.
it is evident that after returning
home he had taken his comfortable
arm chair and was reading a paper
when he was seized with heart trouble.
There had evidently not been a strug- jv
gle or a move, as he sat there so na
tural that when his little granddaugh
ter ran in after school she thought
him asleep.
Mr. Williams was the brother of Mrs.
Evan Davis and of Mrs. Sol Cavinee
of Mt .Pleasant and the father of Mrs.
M. V. B. Morris of this place. He
came to this county when a mere hoy ?.•:
and !s one of the oldest settlers.
The funeral took place thi? morning
at Wayland.
