Coroner Fun-house has summoned all of the prominent physicians of the city and will endeavor to find out jwhat infection there may nave been in the anti-toxht administered to the i children who have diea. how the infection occurred and to whose fault, if anyj individual, this was due.

It is the intention of the coroner to investigate thoroughly all the circumstances attending these deaths. i There are two questions which the inquiry will try to Settle, first whether the deaths were due to lockjaw and second, if so, was jthe lockjaw due -to infected serum. Indications point to! a confirmation of both, but no one seems be. able to account for how the serum became Infected. i FAIL TO FORM A BOYCOTT Duch Dockers Cannot.

INDIANAPOLIS, Nov. 2. Governor Durban tonight refused to grant a requisition for the return to Kentucky of ex-Governor Taylor and Chas. W. Finley, who were Indicted by Ken- rtneky courts for complicity in the mur der of Governor William Goebel.

In declining to honor the requisition Governor Durban says in part: "The-reasons given for a similar action on the! part otYny predecessor, the lamented ex-Governor Mount, Etill obtain in -a pertinent manner as a basis for this refusal reinforced as they are, by vents that have occurred since that time only tend to stablish the conviction to those who believe In equal and exact justice under the law to all men that the time has not yet arrived within the environments of this prosecution whereby an unprejudiced and non-partisan hearing of a trial could be had. I choose to make use of the right andhe duty as the executive OI cne commonwealth to exercise a discretionary power of refusal, to the end that the purposes of persecution which seem to be the conspicuous feature of prosecution, may not force these men before a court partisan to the very extreme of vindictiveness and a jury organized for conviction in it3 personnel! and management. I Crime a Monstrous One. I l- i The assassination of the late i William Goebel was a monstrous crime dephored. as I believe, by every citizen of Indiana ad of the republic.

I The spirit of assassination is the twin of anarchy. If allowed to go unpunished there coukl be na, more serious crime than that a citizen of a state or the official representative of the commonwealth in any capacity, should be foully murdered as the result of conspiracy or is an individual act! i "I have given careful and conscientious consideration, to the evidence produced in the case already heard of the personal accusation "of complicity in the murder of William Goebel. so far as has been placed in mv hands bv thej "attorneys for the prosecution, and I unhesitatingly affirm that conviction based Upon mich a mass of self-evident perjury reflects the poisoned passions of a court end jury and strengthens the belief were those requisitions honored I would be only aiding- ri.e ueierminauon of the prosecution to convict these men without any refer-j ence to law.

Off cial.) The Nebraska football team was defeated this afternoon by Wisconsin by a score of IS to 0. after one of the prettiest and most stubbornly contested games ever seen the west. The cornhuskers were defeated, but not vanquished. Though they loat the game, they succeeded in doing what iv Other team has been able to do this Reason, that is, to break Wisconsin's perject interference and to stop thoi sensationaf end runs for J. which lie badgers' half-backs are famous.

And tonight not one of the seven thousand people Who attended the game thin afternoon but feels that Wisconsin bed a very narrow escape. Lon Chamberlain, who played at tackle on last year's team, says that today's game with Nebraska is the greatest shaking-up Wisconsin has had In many a day. Fastest at the Outlet. During th first half the Nebraska na outplayed the badgers at every point and kept the ball In Wisconsin's territory for the first twenty-five minutes of the game. It was straight football, too, Tlier were no flukes and no accidents.

It was a case of strength and skill which totally surprised Wisconsin. "When Piilsbury and DiJver exchanged punta Wisconsin frequently lost ground by the exchange. On line plays and end runs they seemed at first to be quite the equals of King's men, for Kingsbury and Piilsbury went through the center w-ith amazing regularity, while Cortelyou and Shedd frequently skirted the ends for good gains. In tackling and on defens.ve play, Koehler, West-over and Drain were particularly often downing the runner benind ttia line for a loss. Three times alter Nebraska had worked the ball ckuvn to Wisconsin's live-yard line the boys were held for downs.

So it appears that though the cornhuskers were detested, they were, by no means vanquished. Expressions From the Coavhes. -After the game Coach Booth said: "It was a good game arid the best team won. Nebraska played an ad- mirabie game played at least 100 per cent better thn she did ajrainst Mm-' ncsota three weeks ago. Had our fet- lows played and punted at Minneapolis as they did here this afternoon the gophers never uld have scored- Today's contest was an exceitent exhibition of football.

Wisconsin certainly plays a much better game than Minnesota did when we met her, and I do not think anyone dispute my assertion when I say that Nebraska put up a -plucky game." Phil coach for the vl lsconsia earn, said; i "We expected 1 that Nebraska would make it interesting for us, and I guess everyone who saw the- game thinks they did so. Booth's men put tip a good article of football and are as plucky ix lot of players as anyone could wish to see. They were not quitters at any stage of the game. Even after Wisconsin Jiad scored they continued to. give, us 4 hard fight for every yard we gained.

It was no off day for Wisconsin, though our fellows might, have played a different game in some; points. They were careless at times, but that was not because they felt overconfident as to the outcome, it was a rattling good Everett Wrenn of Harvard, one of the officials of the game, said: "It was. one of the prettiest contests I ever have seen in the west. It was good foorball. Wisconsin plays much better and faster ball than Minnesota, three weeks ago in fact, I think.

the best game that is being played anywhere in the west today. Nebraska put up a plucky fight, as is evidenced -by the fact that the ball was in Wisconsin's territory most of the time in the first half. I think that first half was as good football as I have ever ln tn west. And Nebraska did not lose her nerve even after she had ben scored made tho. bad-gis fight for every gain they made." Details of the Gam.

At the beginning Wisconsin won the tess and chose the east goal, with the wind at her back, and with this dis- ad.vantaire starlna: Nebraska, in the face the game started as a punting con- the "iam inV a.

The publication in Paris this week of three letters written by General Voyron, who commanded the French troops in China, to Field Majrsb.aH Count von Waldersee, showing, among other things, that tho relations between the Frencn general and the field marshal were strained during the entire period of the foreign occupation, causea put little excitement here. A government official here who was interviewed on the subject said absolutely no occasion exists for Germany to take official notice of the affair, adding that the Matin, which published the letters, was hot an official organ. The French government would evade any diplomatic representations by disclaiming any connection with the Matin. Furthermore, the expectation expressed in Paris, that the incident will cause the publication of the field marshal's letters, will not be realized. i The Kreuz Zeitung today admits the skill and politeness with which General Voyron sought to secure the greatest possible degree of independence of the field marshal for the French commanders, and says that hence von Waldersee deserves all the greater pralse-for discharging his difficult task.

The National z-eitung sarcastically admits that the Matin proves General Voyron's diplomatic talent by the publication of the letters. The Vossiche Zeitung says: "The conduct of General Voyron and his ma- liclous patrons is unworthy of a nay tion claiming to be chivalrous." Tnveblatt Is Rrsfntful. The Tageblatt regards the letters as proving the French government, while officially recognizing Field Marshal von Waldersee's commandership-in-chief. instructed General Voyron to do his utmost to make the same illusory, adding: "It was a policy, of pin pricks, vh.ere courage to express the meaning openly was The sDeech of the British colonial secretary, Air. unamueriain at tain- DUl'gn.

In addition to state candidates, senators and congressmen, the republicans have had many speakers from other ftates, including Speaker Henderson and several congressmen. The democratic speakers have been limited to Colonel Ki bourne and his associates the democratic state ticket and Hon. Charles W. Baker, who is a candidate for speaker and others. The contest this year is squarelv between the republicans- and the democrats.

There is no third party of any such consequence as two years ago, when Mayor Sara Joints of Toledo, a non-partisan candidate, received votes for governor. Jones then carried the two large counties of Cuva-hoga and Lucas, in which Cleveland and Toledo are located. The vote of all the minor parties this year will not aggregate twenty thousand out of a total vote of about nine hundred thousand.

'he exact terms in which General Bullef, who continues to monopolize conversation in England, advised General White to surrender Ladysmith, are not yett published nor are they likely to be in ithe near future. The message, while jcorrvct in substance, is incoherent iextually. The war office is blamed for allowing- a libel to be circulated on the man it has already so severely disciplined, but, aa a matter of fact, the question of publication of all the dispatlches relating to General Buller's attempt to relieve Ladysmith has now parsed out of War secretary Broderick's hands and will shortly be dealt with by the cabinet.

Colonel Taylor says that the democrats will carry forty-six of the eighty-eight counties, including the five large counties, and will have a majority in each branch of the legislature for the election of a senator to succeed Foraker.

2. The po-i litica) campaign in this state was prac-I tically closed this evening with a re- publican rally in this city addressed by Congressman Cousins. The ap'par-j ent overwhelming odds in favor of the republicans nas lessenea tne interest in the campaign and it is conceded that a light vote ill be polled, possibly even less than two years ago. when the total was 443,000. The republican state central committee, however, estimates that the vote will be in the neighborhood, of 450,000 and that the republicans will have about 75,000 plurality on the? state ticket.

The democrats do not concede this, and say the plurality will not be much greater than 40,000. There is an unknown quantity in the situation this year. The prohibition republicans, especially those of the Methodist persuasion, are dissatisfied with the nomination of Cummins for governor, on account of his well-known antl-prohibl-tion record, and will either vote the prohibition ticket or not at all. This disaffection may swell the prohibition vote to 20VOOQ or more. On the other hand, Cummins is likely to gain some strength from the gold democrats and may not run far behind the rest of his ticket.

If he does at all. The populists and socialists will poll an lnapprer ciable vote. The republicans claim they will have an overwhelming majority in both houses. The democrats are forking hard in the legislative districts, however, and there are likely to be 'some surprises, though probably not enough changes will be made to endanger the election of two republican United States senators.

30.10 nrecl-n- the Republican Candidate for Supreme Judge that they were making slow Brother; In pursuance of my duly as editor of the liquor dealers' official paper, I beg to call your -attention ta the importance of the coming election so far as th4 retail liquor dealers are concerned. A supreme Judge is to be elected and as the officers we violate no obligations to Our respective political parties, by supporting the candidate whom we know to have no inherent prejudice against the liquor traffic. Conrad Hollenbeck. the fusion nominee, is a broad-minded German, and a man whom the llquor dealers of our state candepend upon to treat them fairly. The republican nominee, Mr.

Sedgwick, I find upon investigation, has stronjr prohibition comes from a prohibition county, and has been frequently arrayed against our craft. His brother prints a prohibition paper; and it is believed Candidate Sedg-iwiek ia a part owner of the! same. Aside from Mr. Sedgwick's prohibition tendencies he is a worthy and capable man, but a plain duty to ourselves must be considered first. Yours: fraternally, C.

E. FIELDS. -We, the undersigned officers of the Nebraska retail liquor dealers' protectiveassociation hereby indorse the foregoing and trust the document will bear wholesome fruit for the cause of personal liberty. onau ce rvniiea. 1' tJAntlva' 'A Krmisi OrMotio V.
