an opportunity to purchase farms IA

terms.
MIR. Purvis conferred about the mat

"VTe simply must get labor from
some place." declared Mr.. Purvis.
'The negroes will not work at even
high wages, and our business cannots

under consideration several plans for
securing labor, but decidedly the most
hopeful one is the course we are now
pursuing"

Bloody sutchery the Result of a
Fierce Fight " itn Knives Between
Greeks in Minneapolis.

At 10 o'clock Wednesday morning
the mutilated- bodies Of six Greeks,
evidently wCrkmen, were found lying
in deep pools OF coagulated blood in a
little tumbie-down house in the south
section of Minneapolis.
Four of the bodies were found in q
sleeping room On the second floor,
cut and slasked in a most horrible
manner, while in the cellar were two
others with their throats cut from ear
to ear. Near the bodies were found
five large bowie knives and blood
stained hatchet. The dead: Nicolo
Dimitri, Kirle Dimitri, Agne Karofil,
Kerstan Yovko, Unka Naudaba, Baa-
kon kapanni.
The Dimitris were evidently father
and son. All of the men were COM
paratively young and smooth shaveu,
their identity being established by let
ters found on their persons.
The only clew possessed by the po-
lice which may lead to solution of
the crime was obtained from dray-
man named Micklenberg. He says that
he was approached Monday afternoon
preceding the tragedy by some men
whom he took to be Italians or
Greeks, who wanted him to take six
packages from the house where the
bodies were found to the union sta
ton.
On arriving at the house he found
there were twelve packages, and af'
ter some haggling about the price, he
took them to the station. A young
man, aged about twenty years, rode
on the wagon with him.
