Number of Alleged Blind Pig
gers.
A langdOn Druggist Also Gave the

Cash.
Temptations to Which Which lindelie
Was Exposed as Represent
dtive of League.

Grand Forks, n. D., Dec. 20.-The
trial of a. Lindelie, secretary of the
state enforcement league, on a charge
of receiving money for protecting Il
blind pigger, was replete yesterday
with sensations. Twice States AttOr-
ney Bangs was requested to take the
witnesses chair by the defendant s
attorneys. A letter written two years
ago by Lndelie to Frank J. OIcary,
of Larimore, warning him to look out
for trouble in running his blind pig,
was produced by Lindelie to whom it
had been returned by OLeary. 1t
had been claimed that Lindele had
destroyed the letter and the effect of
the production OF the letter is to pune
iture one of the indictments of the
grand jury, making two victories for
the enforcement league man.
O'Leary was positive in his testimo-
ny that he had turned over to -Linde-
lie 500 for protection. One grand
juryman testified that Lindelie, while
on the stand, said: IL ight as we'll
admit all. O'Leary left the money on
the table, Arthur E. Edwards
testified for the defense to
the effect that he had heard a conver-
sation between OLeary and Lindelie
in which Lindelie had told O'Leary
that he could have certain money
when he called for it.
Grand Forks, N. d., Dec. 2l.-Sec-
retary Lindelie continued his testi-
mony on the stand yesterday. He
said that after the departure of
OLeary-who left 500 on the table
Mrs. Lindelie entered the room. In
her presence Lindelie picked up the
money and they discussed what should
be done with it finally deciding to put
it in trunk in the second story Of
their residence. There they kept the
money, the witness stated, until re-
turned to OLesry the keeper OF the
Larimore blind swinery.
States Attorney Bangs went after
Lindelie with vigor. He questioned
him closely regarding transactions
with blind piggerS. Lindelie denied
that he had received money from
number of them. From w. B. Frank
lin of Grafton the witness admitted
that he had received $2.5 in the sum
mer Of 1898. He said that Franklin
had threw the money on his desk and
left it there.
Lindelie admitted that he received
from Langdon druggist a registered
letter containing $50. He said that
he used the money in Enforcement
League work. He said that gambler
named Miles tempted him with money
on several occasions but he refused to
take any Of it.
Itwas admitted 10y Lindelie that Pat
Doyle, a keeper Of an alleged blind pig
:at InkSter, called at the Lindelie
home and leftSome money but it was
later returned. Paddy Phalen of Lari-
more left $25 in 1898 and the money
was used in Enforcement League
work. Pat told Lindelie he was run
ming a blind pig. Phalen was never |
arrested.
Mrs. Lindelie cOrrOborated her huS- |
band s stories regarding the O'Leary
incident. She said their home in |
Grand Forks was presented to them
by her father. Property in Florida |
and Grand Forks grocery store was

For at least half an hour he continued
