He states that he and his com panion were riding on the bumpers, and in some manner Irving missed his hold and fell under the wheels. The | pair had left suddenly, simply teliing their relatives they were going to Se attle. The accident is particularly pathetic. This is the third violent death in the family. The dead man's aged mother is lying very ill, and it was deemed best not to break the sad news to her last night. Irving was a single man, twenty-sev en years of age. He was well known In Northeast Minneapolis, where tho family is well connected. A brother, Thomas Irving, is a member of the fire department, being stationed at Engine House No. 12.

Predietionn Vary on the Result of the G. A. R. Election. The vigor with which the canvass in be half of the three candidates for the office of department commander of the G. A. R. of the state ia being pushed resembles a strife for a public office. The forces are exerting every possible effort to secure the election of their respective candidates, but while some feeling has been engendered, the utmost harmony prevails, and after the smcke of bat tle has cleared away, all will be peace and serenity. Senior Vice Commander C. W. McKay, of Fergus Falls, developed unexpected strength yesterday, it appearing that the delegates from tho Lake Park region, including Crow Wing, Morrison, Wadena, Becker, Otter Tall and surrounding counties were pledged to htm. In addition to that it is said that tho St. Paul delegation stands by McKay for the very unselfish manner in which he re signed his candidacy in favor of J. J. Me- Cardy. of St. Paul, at the time the Saintly City had the national encampment. It is also said that Mr. McKay stands in line for the office. ha\ing been senior vice commander for two terms. E. M. Mortimer, the Minneapolis candidate, has a strong local following. Hi 3 headquart ers are at the Niccllet. N. A. Gearhart, of Duluth, is a formidable rival, and fie Mortinr, r men seem to fear him. The Gearhart men lo3t no opportunity yesterday to piesent the meri s cf tueir can didate, and their l_e_d.ua ters. al.o at Hotel Nicollet was a busy place. A caucus was held '.ast evening, ar.d frcm the showing made, it was announced that some of the Minn. atolls cor.t'ngent were wavering. Geaiha. t Las the eutire DuluJi delegation to THE ST.

As a result of the hurrying through with the unfinished 'business, the encamp ment adjourned at 4:20 p. ni.. which enabled a number of the delegates to leave for home last night. IT ALLEVIATES DROUGHT. Frequent Cultivation iv Dry Weath er mi AM to Growing; C'ro iim. The agricultural committee of the beard of regents of the state university held a meeting yesterday morning at the state university. W. O. Smith, who has been in charge of the C'oteau experiment station in the southern part of the state for some 'time past, appeared before the commit tee and explained some interesting ex periments which he has had under way at his station during the winter. Mr. Smith spent several weeks in Washington last fal!. While there he secured from the department of agri culture an electrical apparatus for testing the moisture of the soil several feet below the surface of the ground. While making experiments along this line he made a valuable discovery, which he explained to the regents yes terday. He, found that when the soil on the surface was turned it had a tendency to bring the moisture to the surface and thus succor the roots of the vege table life. If the soil was kept turned during a drought ever so often, Mr. Smith claims that it would partly elim inate the hardship of the drought, if it were not too severe and long of dura tion. This is a most important discovery to the farmers of the state, and one which will prove Invaluable. Mr. Smith claims it is the first experiment of Its kind ever tried by either the agricul tural department or the state school. Mr. Smth's arguments In support of his theory yesterday seemed quite con clusive. He stated that in all cases with his experiments he had secured i the same results. When the soil was in a loose and friable condition the pro cess of evaporation was more pronounc ed, and hence the moisture was drawn up from the earth. Further experiments along this lino will be made at the agricultural school this spring. MOS! UK'S GALLOWS. Contract for Erection Let >'o New Trial to lie Asked For. John Moshik will not have a new trial, and he will hang according to law on tho date set by Gov. Clough. two weeks from next Friday. This is the way matters stand, and the Hennepin county commis sioners let the contract for the gallows to Contractor Smith yesterday, the price being $58. They will be cut and fitted outside the jail, and taken up and put together the Monday before the execution, and then test ed as to strength of beam and rope, by means of sand bags. The relatives of Moshik were prepared to furnish the money to go on with a motion for a new trial if it would do any good. T. A. Garrity stated to them that he would be willing to give his services in the mat ter free of charge, but that lt wouid cost them considerable to get the ease to the supreme court, but it would be only a waste of money, and he did not advise lt. As a result, the new trial idea was abandoned. Moshik was enraged at his attorney for the advise given, but finally became recon ciled to his fate. He was of the opinion that all that could be secured was delay, and it mattered little now whether a few weeks or a few months elapsed before he was executed. -Missionary Women Meet. The Woman's Foreign Missionary Society of First Baptist church had its annual meet ing yesterday in the parlors of the church. An interesting programme cf papers on the works in which the society is particularly in terested was given, the election of officers held, and a social hour enjoyed after the business had been transacted.

Tallant, secretary: Mrs. T. E. Cia t, treasurer; Mrs. Che. ter Simmons, chair man of finance committee; Mrs. F. R.

There are some Duluth cases yet to come up, and they will be followed by the Minneapolis postofflce cases yet to be heard. I his support, which is not small, and may | gain a few votes from the McKay men. The situation would seem to be Minneapolis against the state.

MADRID, March 2.— The Spanish government Monday received a repeirt from the Spanish authorities at Ha vana saying that the explosion which wrecked the Maine was due to inter nal caures, adding that it was believed that the United States experts "will admit this without reservation of any kind." The Correspond-ncia says: "Suppos ing the American committee considers the Maine disaster criminal, we shall havo to hoar the opinion of the Spanish commission. In case of a failure to agree, it would he necessary to nomi nate a mixed conimlssior.. "We remain firm in the belief that the Yankee commission will not find tho explosion due to exterior causes, and, in case of a doubtful Verdict, wa feel sure President McKinley we>uld not wage war against Spain in the face of an European verdict to the contrary." LONDON, March 2.— lt is impossible to verify tho report that Spain has raised the necessary funds for the pur chase of throe Chilean warships, which are said to have been on the market for some time. The Spanish govern ment naturally will not admit that it has ever lacked the funds to purchase necessary ships, and nothing is known here officially or in shipbuilding circles. Tho Armstrongs, who are building the three battleships, have heard noth ing of the report. THAT \m *ANCE DECISION. If Any Ground (an Be Found It V. 11l lie Appealed to tlie Federal Supreme Court. HARTFORD. Conn., March I.—Presi dent J. C. Patterson, of the Travelers' Insurance company, was interviewed today regarding the Wisconsin supreme court decision in a case in which the Travelers' company is interested, and said in substance: "We have been informally notified by our attorneys of the purport of the de cision, and I understand that the text of the decision is on the way to Hart ford. "We cannot tell until we have ex amined the decision what plan we shall adopt, further than to state that we shall appeal to the supreme court of the United States if there is any ground for such an appeal. In other words, if there is a federal question which can be raised, we shall raise it and take it to the highest court in the land. "We do not consider the decision a just one. If any insurance commis sioner can go back and undo the work of his predecessors for twenty-five years, this decision may be all right. Rut we do not believe the law will up hold such a course."
