MCUNbER
The Senator Answers Foolish
Charge Of Stupid Writer as
to His Amendment Offered
to the Rate Bill.
SUBSTITUTION OF WORD
LAWFULLY" CAUSE
OF Criticism Appearing in New York
Paper-Senate Lawyers
Slurred.

Washington, May 22.-The rail-
road rate bill found an early echo
in the senate today when Senator
McCumber rose to the question of
personal privilege to make reply
to the publication in the New York
Tribune charging that one of the
North Dakota senator's would ac-
complish the defeat of certain pur-
poses of the bill.
The amendment was described
IN the newspapers as little
Joker" and it was represented that
by changing the word regularly"
to the word lawfully" common
carriers would be enabled to dis
regard the orders of the commits
sion. 1t was stated that the sena-
tor had admitted that such would
be the result. Senator McCumber
said that he had never made such
admission nor any admission that
would seem to be of that charac-
ter. He expressed the opinion
that If there had been any Joke"
on any one, it was on the writer
OF the article, but he regarded it
as rather a slur on the commit
tee. which had accepted it, and
to the lawyers of the senate, none
of whom had detected any covert
character in, it. He also said that
the amendment could not have
any effect like that indicated and
he did not understand how any
person, with the slightest reason
ing power, could have reached the
conclusion arrived at by the
writer of the article.

MEALS RATHER LIGHT.
"Chan" Edwards of Mayville Just Re.
turned From Frisco.

Among visitors of day or two since
in the city was C. 8. Edwards of May
vile. Familiarity known as Chan" Ed
wards, just returning from Califor-
mia trip. Mr.. Edwards was in San
Francisco day or two after the great
earthquake and fire disasters and says
that it is utterly impossible for any
one to realize the extent of the cal
amity. The day. he was there the
hotel accommodations, consisted of q
sandwich and a cup of coffee In the
street at the side of tent, and, while
everyone was getting enough to keep
from starving, the meals were un-
avoidably very light. He told of a
wealthy real estate loan man who
lost everything he had and went to
Los Angeles as soon as he could get
there. Having no money he established
credit at the hotel and dry goods stores
by exhibiting some unpaid bills which
his wife happened to have, indicating
of course that his credit had been good
in Frisco.
From the trend of Mr.. Edwards re-
marks 1t is safe to presume that he is
satisfied to remain in North Dakota
where they have no earthquakes and
plenty to eat at all times. His visit
on the coast, however. proved Of much
interest. 81

Talk Of Repairing Old Bridge-Mueh
Routine Work Disposed Of and Har-
nony Prevails.

Il nony Prevails.
T. =, The city council was in session last
night and enjoyed sort of love feast
without the love. Considerable bust:
ness was, transacted and the council
adjourned at 10 o'clock-three hours,
before it's time. All members were
present except Sherlock. The recorder
filed accounts of those who had
deposited SO for preliminary license
fees. and then had not complied with
the requirements in the matter Of
taking out the licenses. The council
decided to :disa1lOw the claims.
"A petition from the citizensinterested
was read in reference to- the construc-
ton of drain, and the matter was re-
ferred to the committee of public Inn
provements to examine and report.
The matter of repairing the Red
Lake river bridge was reported on by
Alderman Craig, who in conjunction
with Alderman Westberg had examined
into the matter as members Of the
committee on public improvements.
They agreed that after careful exam
.ination they had concluded that the
old bridge could be repaired and put
in better condition than the new one
for 5000 or $700-about one third what
the repairs on the new bridge would
cost. The report elected some discus
sion, the mayor making the suggestion
that II the old bridge were repaired
and opened, It would make It necessary
for the children coming to school to
pass the disreputable, houses. The
members Of the council admitted the
merits Of the suggestion and the
matter finally went over to, the next
meeting.

mittee appointed to investigate the
matter of having survey made for
the construction of the sewer system
in the Second and Third wards, stated
that they had asked City Engineer
Smith of Grand Forks to look the
matter over and estimate the cost.
Mr.. Smith was present and stated that
he thought the survey would cost
approximately 5000. The report was
received and the committee continued.
Alderman Craig called up the matter
of making an appropriation for send
ing the delegates of the fire department
to the state firemen's convention at
La Seuer. and stated that the depart
ment would ,beSwillihs to accept what
eyerssthe scounGtl could afford to ap-
propriate..s Alderman Westberg moved
that $50s be- appropriated for this pnr-
pose and the motion was carried.
The matter dc the claim of Korns-
greibel against the city for the break
ing Of q limb Shecause of defective
sidewalk was presented to the council
by the committee on claims. II Attorney
Bronson Of the Arm Of Bronson &
Collins, appeared for the claimant and
stated that his client would accept
$3.50 as full compensation for all dam
ages sustained. This amount would
cover doctor biilss hospital expense
and loss of time, less the probable
cost of prosecuting a suit TO recover.
After some consultation the council
decided to accept the amount.
The report Of the recorder on the
outstanding accounts for the use of
electricity was presented and In the
absence of Sherlock was laid over
till the next regular meeting.
The mayor reported that he had con-
suited with the proper authorities on
the west side with reference, to light-

KILLED WIFE
AND SELF
Henry Bradt Farmer Near New Salem,
N. D., Kills Mother Of His New Born
Babe, Then suicides-A Peculiar
Crime for Which There Is no Motive.

Word has just been received in
Grand Forks of tragedy which oc-
Cured last week fifteen miles north
east Of New Salem. N. D.. in which
Henry Bradt, a prosperous farmer.
shot and instantly killed his wife and
then blew the top of his own head off.
No motive for the crime is known.
Bradt had lived in the state about
four years, coming from Minnesota.
and had been married six years. So
happy.
Mrs. Bradt, four days prior to the
murder. had given birth to a child and
was being cared for by neighboring
woman and a young girl. Bradt had
been apparently in good spirits and
nothing had been noticed in his ac-
tions to arouse alarm. During the
absence of the attendants in the
kitchen. he was left alone in the sick
room with his wife.
Bradt suddenly approached the bed
and shot twice with revolver. He
evidently fired one shot from sit
ting position beside the bed, and
while the woman's eyes were closed.
The bullet entered her skull behind
| the ear. He then stood up and fired
another shot from the front, the ball
entering the neck just below the chin.
Either wound was fatal Bradt then
turned the weapon against his own
breast and fired. The bullet, however,
glanced and only a flesh wound was
inflicted. He then rushed into the
kitchen covered with blood and Sc
cured a rifle. fr
The two neighboring women, much
alarmed. hung onto him and fought
desperately to restrain him, but he
threw them of and going to the barn
proceeded deliberately to end his life.

THE.STORY BUT
HALF TOLD
Herald Tells of E q. Bonlie's Declin.
ing MS Candidate for Office and
Howls sGang" as Usual-Another
Candidacy Overlooked.

The Herald's local political writer
discovered last night that E. G. Bonlie,
of Marvel, ''has declined to be can
didate on the gang ticket" The Herald
could have gone further and not
warped the truth and stated that Mr..
Bonlie also refused to stand as can
dfdate for the new gang, but this truth
would not have answered the Herald's
purpose-which is one of misrepre-
sentation in order to create political
discord among republicans, and Wifi
cation of honest and upright citizens.
The Herald also overlooked the fact
that Mr.. n. Iverson. a prominent
Scandinavian of Ferry township, has
had his petition as a legislative can
didate. In circulation for several days,
and the indications are that he will.
represent the Sixth district in the next
legislature. There was no meeting
held last night to fill any vacancy,
anywhere. but the local political re-
porter happened to see Senator Bacon
and William Bulge talking together
in the hotel rotunda-and of course,
there must necessarily be some dark
political plot on foot. II the Herald
reporter would ask for information,
instead of jumping at conclusions, he
would not make his paper appear SO
ridiculous.

WILL SUE G. N.
RAILROAD
william McGrath, Prominent Hoople
Stockman, to Bring Action Against
Great Northern for Damages-Al.
leges He Was Elected From Train.

William McGrath, prominent farm
er and stockman of Hoople. N. D.. has
retained E. R. Sinkler of Grafton to
bring suit against the Great Northern
railway for damages alleged to have
been caused through his forcible and
unwarranted election from a passenger
train by well-known Great Northern
conductor running out of this city.
McGrath's story is that he boarded
a train at Grafton on Thursday last,
desiring to ride to Hoople. Upon
reaching that station, he changed his
mind and determined to go on further,
to Crystal, with friend. The conduc-
tor, it is said. because of previous
disturbance in which McGrath and the
train auditor are said to have been
participants, refused to allow him to
remain on the train. When McGrath
refused to leave the coach, it is alleged
that the conductor elected him forci-
bly, and in doing so caused him to
strike his head on a piece of iron, in
fiicting deep cut in his scalp. DR.. C.
M. Pierce of Hoople dressed the
wound and the suit is the outcome Of
the fracas.

Il The board of regents of the state

The meeting was called to open the

Bruce expressed it there Is hardly

plans were discussed this morning for
getting larger quarters. It was at
first thought that perhaps the entire

could be secured but this seems i'm
probable inasmuch as the X. P.'s have
an option on the location. Another
