Great Northern Strike Cases are
Disposed of.

Disposed of.
Fergus Falls, Mimi, April 13.-The
end Of the troubles arising from the
Great Northern railway strike is near.
Nearly every one participating in that
trouble was Indicted on two charges.
One was ~obstructing the mails II
the other conspiracy. The case OF
Grant Mason of GAINESVILLE was
called to-day, the charge being that Of
obstructing the mails. The offepse
alleged was uncoupling and pushing
onto a sidetrack the rear coach of a
mail train. United States Attorney
Stringer prosecuted the case and q. 5.
Marden, assisted by G. ii. Houpt, de-
Tended Mason. The jury found him
guilty. The conspiracy cases against
seven Of the GAINESVILLE men were
called, and they al. pleaded guilty TO
obstructing mails. They are Grant
Mason, James Il. Knowles, Robert
Nelson. Thomas Pender, Fred Atkins,
Charles Mallieux, and Fred Rath.
Judge Nelson addressed them. He
said the offense was committed during
a time of great excitement. Often
times employees had just grievances
| against their corporations and other
employers. They had a right to OIL
| ganiZe to advance their w interests,
but at the same time they could not
~transgress with impunity the laws
| which congress had passed for the
| protection of all. He had no doubt
| that they regretted their course, and
he therefore would not give them the
severest penalty. He sentenced each
| to pay Il fine of Sl0o, and until the
| fine was paid each was to be COM
| mitted to the Otter Tail county jail.
| The sentence is not 10 become opera
| tive until moved by District Attorney
| Effect. This is to allow the men 20
pay their fines In installnents. Sew
eral. however, paid in full and others
paid half. and will pay the rest before
September.
The st. Cloud men, L. D. Foster,
Paul Bcadreau and William Broham,
retired for consultation with their at
torney, as the case Of Foster was to
come to trial next for conspiracy. Ii
was quite apparent that he would be
convicted, and they decided tc plead
guilty to Obtsructing the mails. The
court was about to sentence them to
the st. Cloud Jail in default of pay
ment. when Dad" Foster said he pre-
ferred the Otter Tail hostelry, and the
court amended the sentence to so
read. Fred Rath, who is one of the
GAINESVILLE boys, is not more than Is.
He and his brother, who almost ex-
actly resembles him, were around a
train during the strike, and one was
indicted for interfering. The other
brother has since died. and the parties
claim that he was the and that
Fred was innocent. Fred pleaded
guilty. The court on the request OF
the district attorney made his sen
tence $40, which was paid by his
father. There are now four cases
against strikers at GAINESVILLE, foul
at st. Cloud, and four at Breckenridge
undisposed of, and they will undoubt
eddy plead guilty at a future term.

DoubIe Death mt BIunt.

Blunt, S. d., April 1~2.-Seldom is It
given to any locality to witness a sad
der scene than that which occurred in
Blunt yesterday, the funeral OF Mr..
and Mrs. Phelps Moore, formerly Of
st. Paul. The couple came to Blunt
a year ago, and had just moved a
house onto a claim, preparing. as the
old gentleman frequently said. to
spend their last days, "a sunny old
age in a sunny state" Three weeks
ago Mr.. Moore was thrown from a
wagon by a runaway team and Sc
verely bruised. In caring for him his
wife was worn out and pneumonia
set in. From the frs. each expressed
a willingness to die If the other should
die. Mrs. Moore died first, and eigh-
teen hours later her husband followed
her. An only son from st. Paul ar
rived a few hours after their death.
