Binford, N. D., Aug. 15.-The author
tiles here are puzzled over the death
Of John Bjornson, a farmer living four
miles northwest of Binford. They are
unable to determine whether it is a
case of suicide or murder.
His wife and daughter had gone on
a visit to neighbor. the understand
ing being that Bjornson would call for
them the next day. When he did not
put in an appearance the wife became
alarmed and returned home. He was
not in the house, and she searched for
some time before finally discovering
him in a lean-to of the barn.
He was dead and there was bullet
hole in his heart. The body looked
as II it had been placed in the position
in which 1t was found. A revolver was
found tucked under the leg and not
near his hands.
The wound indicated that 1t had been
made by shot fired at long range,
and this further gave an impression
OF foul play.
The coroner's jury returned YER
dict of death from q gunshot wound in
the hands of unknown persons and
the county ofiicials are making a rigid
investigation of the affair.

is, want ad. will usually find the

FALSE REPORT CAUSES
RUN ON N. g.. BANK,
Special to the EVENING NEWS:

NEW BRUNSWICK, Nov. IL
A false report circulated here this
morning has caused a run on the New
Brunswick Savings bank today. The
cashier, Charles Durham, is homo
sick and ii became rumored abroad
that the institution had gone into the
hands of a receiver. A large num-
Der of foreigners and the poorer
class of people became alarmed for
fear they would lose their earnings
and began drawing out their deposits.
The Withdrawals continue all day, al
though not as heavy as at first.
Groups of people gather in front of
the building debating whether to go
in or not. To withdraw now means
they will lose their interest.
The bank is backed by the leading
men of this city and is absolutely
safe. 1t is thought the rumor was
started as a piece of spite work.

the counter charge that the Count

POISONED BY BITE
OF NEGRO CONVICT.
Deputy Prison Keeper Was Strug-
Cling to Subdue CoIored Maniac
in His Cell.

TRENTON, Nov. 14:-John F.
Freeman, a deputy keeper in the New
Jersey State Prison, is in a serious
condition at his home in this city, as
the result of being bitten on the hand
by Marion Williams, a negro convict
who suddenly became insane and at
tempted to kill himself by dashing his
head against the bars OF his cell.
Poison has developed in Freeman's
system as a result of the wound in
flicted by the crazed negro. and the
possible outcome of the injury is CIV
ing the mans doctors much concern.
Freeman was on guard in the cor
rider containing the cell of Williams
cursing. Freeman ran toward the
cell and Williams started to beat his
head against the bars. The keeper
entered to restrain the negro and was
quickly involved in a desperate fight
for his own life. He would doubtless
have been choked to death by the
maniac but for the fact hat George
o. Osborne, head keeper, and four
deputies, who were not far away, ran
to the rescue.
The negro turned attention to Os-
borne and the latter narrowly es-
capped being struck down in the cell.
The deputies then closed in on the
crazy man and overpowered him, al
though not until after a terrible fight.
Just as Williams was secured he
grasped the hand of Deputy Freeman
and bit the thumb to the bone.

election is to be held in Glen Ridge

the perplexing postal system in the
borough, and ome are to be al
lowed to vote. There was a strong
sentiment in the council against per
hitting women to vote, but owning
to the fact that a recent public meet
ing had decided unanimously in favor
of 1t, the councilmen acquiesced. IT
ordered a special election, at which
every male or female resident may
vote, providing that he or she has
lived one year in the state, three
months in the county and thirty days
in the borough.
There will be two tickets in the
field, one Sin favor of the retention
Of the Glen Ridge p%ostoffice, under
improved conditions" and the other
lin favor of free delivery from
Bloomfield"
Inasmuch as women will be al
lowed 10 vote, it is estimated that
about 1000 votes will be polled, and
there is a strong probability that the
vote will result in retaining the pres
ent postofice, but removing 1t from
the Lackawanna station and putting
it in a separate building in charge OF
a new postmaster, who is to perform
no other public duties.

PROBE GRAFT CHARGES
AT SAN FRANCISCO,

SAN FRANCISCO, Nov. 14:-The
Chronicle says today:
A new investigation is progressing
in the course of developments in the
local graft scandal. II now appears
that many sums of money, large and
small, that were sent from different
| states to San Francisco for the relief
of the sufferers from the calamity
never reached the relief committee.
Some of these amounts, which aggre-
gated a large sum, were mailed to
the care of Mayor Schmitz. F. j.
Heney, Detective William Burns and
about one hundred government
agents have been making an investi-
cation.
President Roosevelt is the moving
spirit behind the inquiry, and he de-
clares that no mar guilty of diverting
the relief funds shall escape justice.
The cases come within the juris-
diction of the federai authorities be-
cause of the interstate character OF
the postal service. which, it is al
legged, was criminally tempered with.
A considerable sum of money was
also sen through the express COM
panies and Wells Fargo, which COM
panies are now investigating the dis
appearance of $10,5S0 sent in n
package from the citizens of earch
light, New, which the relief commit
tee says it never received, and which
the company says was delivered to
the representative of the committee
to whom it was addressed.
The crime of forgery is said to be
included in the offenses of the raiders
of the relief contributions.
1t is said that in the aggregate the
s%tealings will amount to $1,000, 900.
