REWARD INCREASED
State Joins Northern Pacific in Of.
fering Big Sums for Capture
Of Wreckers.
Last Attempt Was Near Bozeman-
Slight Clew Found at Chest
nut Station.
Special to The Journal,

Butte, Mont, Aug. Reconsideration
prevails among Northern Pacific railway
officials as the result of repeated attempts
to wreck trains with dynamite in the past
week. In view Of the gravity Of the situ-
ation the Northern Pacific last night in
creased it's reward from $1,000 to $4,000
for the apprehension Of the miscreant who
destroyed the center pier Of the big steel
bridge across the Yellowstone river, east
of Livingston, on Sunday night, with dy-.
Mantle, in an effort to wreck a coast train.
This action followed another effort to
blow up passenger train near Bozeman,
when a freight train ran into the charge
and exploded it. The charge had not
been properly packed, and beyond badly
wrecking car no damage was done.
More dynamite placed near the track was
damp and failed to go off
To the amount offered by the company
for the capture of the fiends, Governor
Toole has offered a reward of 1000 for
the arrest of each Of the perpetrators, pro-
vided there are not more than five or six
of the plotters. The Park county COM
| mfssioners, in which county the attempt
to destroy the bridge occurred, have Of
fered reward Of $500 for each Of the
! culprits.
| Railroad detectives have unearthed a.
clue at Chestnut, near the scene of the
! bridge dynamiting. Two men, of whom
| the OFFICERS have good description are
| known to have bought quantity of giant
powder there several hours before the ex-
| plosion at the bridge. They are described
as looking like Swedes and of the hobo
type. Railway officials believe the same
| persons attempted to throw the coast
train into the Yellowstone river and to
wreck the passenger near Bozeman.

be train wreckers, in the hope that his ac-
| ton will stimulate search

$1,000 for the conviction of any person
concerned In either crime and a further
reward of $1,000 is offered for the convic-
ton of any one concerned in any similar
crimes.

COURTHOUSE FOR JACKSON
Special Election In September to Vote on
$4,000 Bonds,


$4,000 Bonds.
JACKSON, MINN.-The county COM
missioners are confronted by condition
which necessitates the building of a court
house. At their last regular meeting the
commissioners made a levy of $4,000,
with the intention Of following this action
by levy Of $4,000 each year for two
years. This would mean the erection Of
the courthouse, all paid for, in three years.
Fearing that the tax would be a. burden,
and for that reason might meet with seri-
Gus opposition. the commissioners decided
to ask for the issue Of $4,000 in bonds, to
run fifteen years. This, Of course means
the payment Of the amount necessary to
build the courthouse in fifteen instead of
three years. Based on the present val
uation the bond issue will cost each quar-
ter section of land in the county about 81
q year until the bonds are paid.
The special election to vote on the bond
question will be held on Tuesday, Sept. %.
