ARREST IS EXPECTED
IN POISONING
CASE TODAY
Thomas Reekie and Wife,
Who Ate Potatoes Sprin-
killed. With Strychnine,
Move Away From Sister
in.Law's Home Grand
Jury Investigates the Mys-
terry.

1t was stated yesterday that the
grand jury had been asked to investi-
gate the alleged attempt to poison the
Reekie family, the members of which
came near meeting death last Friday
by eating potatoes which had been
adulterated with strychnine. For this
reason the jury did not adjourn after
disposing Of the Jail and bail cases,
which work was concluded yesterday.
Thomas Reekie and his wife have
moved from the home of Mrs. H. G.
Montay at 279 East Robe street, and
are now boarding with friends on Mis-
sissippi street.
Where on Mississippi street the cou-
pie are residing Mrs. Montay, who is
Mrs. Reckless sister, refused to state
last evening. When interviewed at
her home she said:
Mr.. Reekie and his wife have moved
away" This was in answer to a re-
quest to see Mr. Reekie.
Where have they moved to-" was
asked.
II don't care to say replied Mrs
see Mr.. Reekie?"
She was then told that her inter-
viewer was a reporter, and quickly the
woman answered: ''Mr. Reekie has
nothing for the paper regarding the
poisoning cases. In fact. the police
informed us today that the invesuga-
ton was closed and that the detective
in charge had been unable to solve
the mystery surrounding the attempted
murder"
But don't you know where your sis
ter is now iving?" was again asked.
"Of course 1 do" responded Mrs
Montay. THAT is, I do and 1 don't
could find the house, but l don't know
the number"
After much pressure the woman fin
ally said that the Reckless were living
on Mississippi street, but did not give
the number of their dwelling.
Detective Rowland and Lieut. Sex
ton, who have charge of the case, said
yesterday that they now have evidence
in their possession which will incrin-
mate one of two persons. Rowland
last night stated that he looked for
developments today which will lead
to the arrest of the party. He was
not prepared to announce the name of
the suspect last evening. A warrant
will probably be issued today.

time as may be reasonably necessary
for the consideration of an application
for the pardon or communication Of the
sentence of, the person so reprieved.
The attorney for Olson claims that
under this section the pardon board
would have power to grant a reprieve
In the case on the ground that the new
evidence would tend to affect its ac-
ton on another application for a COM
mutation of sentence
Attorney General Douglas, who is a
member of the pardon board, said last
evening that he had been informed
that stay of proceedings would be
applied for at Brainerd today He was
not advised as to the ground for the
application except that it was said new
and important evidence had been dis
covered.
Any probable action the pardon
board might take, should Judge Nc
Clenahan deny the motion for stay,
the attorney general declined to dis
cESS.

NO BILLS AGAINST
ERTZ AND COBB
Grand Jury Finds Nothing in
Sam FullertOn's Charges
Against Them.

The grand jury made its report yes
terday afternoon at 4 o'clock, return
ing four indictments and two no bills.
The cases in which indictments were
not found were those of c. j. Ertz and
r. e. Cobb, Third street commission
merchants, charged by Executive
Agent S. f. Fullerton, with violating
the state game and fish laws. No Sc
Cret indictments were returned.
The parties against whom true bills
We're found are all in custody, having
been confined in the county Jail for
some time.
Two indictments were returned
against A. E. Durham, each charging
him with forgery in the second de-
to have passed a forged check for
$13.26 on S. j. McDonough, the name
of w. F. Porten being signed to the
check. The second offense charged
against him is passing a worthless
check on John c. Horrlgan, for which
he received SIS.
Charles Hoshaw, who is charged
from the barn of B. Zohn, is held for
grand larceny in the second degree.
The theft is alleged to have occurred
Aug. 4, 1901.
John Williams was indicted for
grand larceny in the second degree, in
connection with the inert OF some $3UU
worth Of patterns from the tailor shop
of George RaWitscher on the night of
Feb. II.
The prisoners will be arraigned be-
fore Judge Kelly in the criminal divis-
ion of the district court this morning,
at which time they will be given an
opportunity to plead.
1t had been expected that the grand
jury would make it's final report and
adjourn yesterday, but the Reekie
poisoning case is said to have been
called to the body's attention, and as
the matter was of such Importance the
sessions We're resumed for the purpose
of probing the matter. Members of
the grand jury stated last night that
the so-called blind pigs" in the Mid
way district would not be Investigate
ed and it is probable that the jury will
adjourn as soon as the investigation
of the poisoning case is completed.

ton clause in it, and there is no doubt
the majority of them knew what they
were doing"
Inspector Savard favored the grant
ing Of the request and President
Griggs, of the anti Vaccination society
expressed the opinion that the people
who voted on the charter did not I'M
derstand every section of the measure.
He thought the proposed plan would
now give the people a chance to ex-
press their views on the subject.
He was willing to have the printed
matter on the slips changed to suit the
views of the board, as the principal
reason for making the request was to
get the matter before the parents of
the pupils and secure an unbiased ex-
preston.
On the motion to indefinitely post
pone the request, all but Inspector
Savard voted for this action.

Likely to Be Invoked.

The execution of Ole G. Olson which.

reprieve pending on appeal to the SUI

{. An Early norman Dinner.

An EARLY Norman dinner.
The Saxon dinner arrangements were
orderly compared with those Of the
early Normans, when the halls and
passages were frequently the scene Of
q free fight between the servants br!ncs-
ing In the food and the crowds Of hang
err on e~ndeavoring to snatch it from
them. This nuisance became at length
90 tntolerable that ushers Of the hall
and kitchen were established by King
William Rufus to protect not only the
cooks bringing In the dinner, but the
guests arriving to partake Of 1t. Upon
the occasion of his great feast at West
munster 300 of these officers were IN
duty, some to guard the visitors as
they ascended the steps and others to
defend the threatened dishes.
Such was the uncivilized state Of So
ciety at this period, but when later on
the marauders disappeared from the
great houses 1t became customary to
carry in the dishes in procession, some
times preceded by music and headed
by the steward with his wand of Office.
1t was the duty of an 'asseeur' or
placer to arrange them upon the table;
the ewers and napkins with which to
perform their ablutions were present
ed to the guests by the esquires and
pages, while it fell to the lot Of the al
moner to say grace.
