the Missouri river to the Minnesota
state line. The snowfall varies from
an inch to three inches. 1t is freezing
tonight. Serious damage has been done
to small fruits and gardens. Wheat
and barley fields covered with snow
will not suffer seriously. The storm
is likely to continue until morning.

storm ragged here all day. Snow and
hail, driven by a fifty-mile gale, has
caused complete cessation of traffic,
and everything is at a standstill. Street
car traffic is in such a crippled condi-

All boats In the harbor are warned
to remain in port. Rats of logs which
were being towed across Lake Superior

Reports from other sections in

DEAD MAN LAY
IN POOL OF BLOOD
Police Have Murder Mystery
to SOlve-Three Arrests
Of Suspects Made.

The Minneapolis police have a full
| fledged murder mystery on their hands.
| The battered body of a man was found
at o'clock yesterday morning in an
alley in the rear of the saloon and bill
lard hall of G. l.. Loomis, 115 Wash
ington avenue south. 1t lay in a pool
of blood and the finding of a hat on the
roof directly above the point where the
body was found leads the police to be-
lieve that the man was murdered on
the roof and pushed off.
Three negroes are under arrest and
suspicion points strongly to them as
the murderers. All efforts to ascertain
the identity of the victim have been
unavailing. The body lies unclaimed
in the county moreue.
Christopher Jamison and Frank Mar
tin discovered the body and reported to
the police of their find. From the tenn
perature of the body it was evident
that life had been extinct but a short
time. 1t lay face downward. The
head bore an abrasion on the right
side, three inches in length, there was
deep indentatiOn over the right eye,
similar injury on the right side of
the nose and several minor cuts and
bruises were apparent on other por-
tions of the body.
1t was deduced by the coroner and
detectives that the blows had been
rapidly and heavily struck, evidently
with a Ratchet or similar weapon.
Some of the wounds could have follow
ed fall from the roof, but the most
serious ones were plainly inflicted by
some one on murder bent. There is a
door leading from the roof of the rear
portion of the building into the second
story of the LOOMS establishment and
near this door the hat was found. It
was covered with dirt and blood and
there are blood marks on the steps
leading to the alley.
From the position of the body the
man could not have fallen off the roof,
as 1t lay fiat against the building. The
only motive the police can presume is
robbery. The clothing on the body,
which was that of a heavily built man,
would seem to indicate that he was a

Assault and Battery Charge.

When Joseph Tomboli appeared in police
court yesterday to answer charge of as
sault and battery, preferred by Lorenz
Rossini, his appearance indicated that he
was the person who had been battered in
stead of Rossini. His eyes were discolored
and swollen almost shut, his nose was
somewhat out of line and there was an

he Is said to have made oVertures to the

shortly after this episode and had disap-

RANDOLPH CAR LINE
WILL COME UP AGAIN
Street Committee of Board of Alder
men Meet Today.

A meeting of the committee on
streets of the board of aldermen will
be held this afternoon and an attempt
made to clear UP a number of matters
delayed because of the lack of a quo
rum last week.
One of these is the consideration of
the ordinance calling for the recon-
struction of the old Randolph street
car line. For nearly three years the
property owners have been trying to
get the line back. but their plans have
been frustrated at every turn. Since
the last effort, the ordinance has been
held UP on the plea that President
Lowry desired a conference with the
property owners, but if he does. the
committee that has been handling the
matter says it has been unable to find
Mr. Lowry In his office.
Another effort will be made to force
consideration today, though it is likely
a postponement will be taken owing to
the absence from the city of Aid. Roh-

CAME ACROSS SEA
TO KEEP TROTH
Pretty German Girl Heroine
Of a Romance Which
Ends in st. Paul.

The promise made by Katie Mayer
in Germany two years ago was fulfill
ed yesterday, when she became the wife
OF John Barberich, of North st. Paul.
Miss Mayer is a pretty little German
girl not more than eighteen years old.
Her lover had the marriage license in
his pocket when he met her at the
union station upon her arrival from the
old country yesterday morning.
The couple were sWeethearts in their
native country and two years ago,
when Barberich departed for America,
the girl promised to come to him
whenever he sent for her. The young
man, upon his arrival in the United
States, came to st. Paul, secured en-
ployment and for two years he has
worked hard and practiced self-denial
that he might save enough money with
which to bring his sweetheart to this
country. A few weeks ago a regis
tered letter containing an amount suf-
f1cient to guarantee the girls passage
over was mailed to her. since which
for her arrival. Word was received
that she would be here Saturday, but
Barberich went to the station only to
then he has carefully scanned the faces
of the passengers from the incoming
trains. Yesterday morning he was re-
warded for his long and patient vigil
by the arrival of the belated little girl.
In the afternoon the couple were
married by Court Commissioner CAL
lick, and as neither of them could un-
derstand the English language, the
ceremony was spoken in German.
Aside from the regular marriage Ger
tificate, one in German was made out,
which will be sent to the girls mother
in Germany.
If appearances count for anything it
was a very happy couple which left the
court house after the marriage cere-
mOny had been performed, the love in
the eyes of the pretty little bride cas-
lily outshining the spotless celluloir COL
lar worn by the groom.
The couple will make their home

they have air to breathe If all the air

The disaster was not, confined to the
vicinity of the mine alone, for many of
the dwelling houses in the town of
Frank were demolished by the falling
rock. Some of the occupants of these
houses escaped death, but many others
were instantly killed.
Death Number 112.
1t is conservatively estimated that
the loss of life will exceed 100. and the
latest returns place the number of dead
at 112.
At noon today it was impossible to
arrive at any accurate estimate of the
loss Of life, as, owing to the excitement
and hurry and rush Of people on the
street, no persons can say who is miss
ing and who is not. There are no rec
ords available which will tell how
| many men were working in and about
the mine at the time of the disaster.
1t Is variously reported that there
were from eighteen to fifty miners un-
foreground. 1t is known that many
women and children have suffered
death, but just how many it is i'm
possible to tell at present.
Vast Fissure Made.
When reports concerning the magni-
tude of the disaster and details con-
corning it commenced to come in from
reliable men who had been out pros

earth opened for thfee4euarters of a
mile and many feet in width, and that

then he went out riding on the side

his hand was somewhat unsteady.
After riding for a short distance he
ran so close to the edge of the walk
as to lose his balance and fell under
the rear wheels of a lumber wagon
passing near the curb. AS the wagon
had no load the boy escaped with only
severe bruises on his back and right
arm. No bones We're broken. but Will

workings. 1t is now certain that
eighteen men were buried in the work
ings. All hope for them has been
abandoned. The streets are crowded
with the relatives and friends of those
known to be entombed. The women are
behaving In most heroic manner.
1t is generally thought here that the
disruption of Turtle mountain was
brought about by a seismic disturb
ance, although there are. people who
declare that the origin of the upheaval
was volcanic. No lava has been seen,
and, aside from the smoke from the
mountain, the atmosphere is clear.
There is, however, no explanation for
the continued upheaval of rocks. The
eruptive influences seem to center
right at the crown of Turtle mountain.

lowing conservative estimate of the
loss of life was made:
