Story and Deny Completely i'm the
Criine-Facts as Told by the SpOkes-
man OF the Party.

Duluth, Mimi. March 29.-The mys-
terry surrounding the six grewsome
murders which Mortified the citizens of
Minneapolis yesterday was only deep
ened today by the arrest here of eleven
Bulgarians who We're residents Of the
house at 243 Tenth avenue south, in
Minneapolis. where the crime was
committed. The prisoners are eigh:
men, two boys and one woman.
Cross questioned individually, five Of
the eleven prisoners tell the same
story, and maintain their innocence of
any completely in the crime. If their
story is true the Minneapolis police
have struck the wrong trail, and it
skaters all theories of the murders
which have hitherto been held, and
leaves the police absolutely at sea for
even theory for the motive and the
identity Of the criminals.
The facts as told by Kuseman Sick
ulOH, the spokesman of the party, are
these:
For the last year or more, some of
the Bulgarians from the province of
Presbad, in the northern part of Tur-
key, have been working in the woods
and camps of Northern Minnesota

Siekuloff who acted in the capacity of
padrone or leader He was the only
member of the band who could speak
English. He provided work for his
followers. During the winter the men,
bers of this band have been working
near the village of Alborn. About
four months ago Siekuloff rented the
house at 243 Tenth avenue, planning
to bring some others of his country

his bride. Uulaka Nardove, whom he
had married about a year ago while on
a visit to his old home. PetrOs Stojer,
member of the Siekuloff band was
left in charge of the house about two
months ago. One week ago yesterday
Siekuloff and the six members who
are dead. went to Minneapolis with
their winters wages in their pockets.
Saturday the party of immigrants
arrived from Bulgaria and the sixteen
people occupied the house Saturday
and Sunday Monday Siekuloff start
ed for Duluth. with the new corners,
leaving the six members of his old
band behind him in Minneapolis. He
arrived here Monday night with his
party. Siekuloff and the members of
his party are at a loss to know the
cause of the murders, as all were
friendly.
Siekuloff and party were located in
lodging house here. with more than
thirty people packed into four rooms.
The majority of them are Austrians
and Bulgarians, and among them are
some of the other members of Sieku-
lofts band who had not been to Min
neapOlis at all. Siekuloff says he
knows of no criminal organization or
feud that could have prompted the
murders.
Of the six men left at Minneapolis,
four were brothers named Jaless and
according to Siekuloff the story that
there was a father and SON is incor-
rect. Asked if they had trouble with
any persons in Minneapolis he said
they had not.
The effects of a religious nature
found in the house. Siekuloff says are
prayer books and paraphernalia of
the Bulgarian church to which the
members Of the party belong

POLITICS IN THE STRIKE
A Scheme Lies Back of IL to Throw
Down Mr. Roosevelt.

That a deep political scheme lies
back of the so far unexplained delay
Of the miners and operators coming TO
agreement as 10 wages has come TO De
one of the prevailing topics about the
hotels where the representatives are
stopping. 1t is well known that the
representatives of the great railroad
interests among the operators has pre-
vented any settlement so far. From
sources close 10 the inside comes the
information that the question of wages
is not the real cause Of delay, but
that the trust forces are in reality
seeking to embarrass President Roose-
Welt. The people who give big orders
have determined that at all costs Mr..
Roosevelt must be put out Of the run

the same source IL is stated that the
operators have since the matter Of
wages was first brought up been de-
termined there shall be no strike.-In-

NOT WORTH THE LIVING
Sorry Condition of Many TOday-Lib-
eraI Offer by II. II. Bellamy.

Those who never have any stomach
troubles and whose digestion is like
that of an ostrich cannot possibly
understand the sorry condition of
many in Wilmington today.
Life does not seem worth the living;
they bear up with nervous irritation.
sleeplessness. pain and misery in the
stomach headaches, backacheS, and
have a constant fear that what they
eat is going to disagree with them and
cause still greater distress. While per-
sons with a weakened stomach should
have our sympathy, it is much better
to point out the way to cure their
physical troubles and make it possible
for them to once more enjoy life with
out thought or care as to what may be
eaten.
In Mi-o-na there is a remedy that
restores the lost functions of the di-
gestive system, revives tagging nu-
triton, and aids in the assimilation
of food. This remedy soothes and
heals the irritated and inf1amed walls
of the stomach, strengthens the nerve
centers of the digestive system, and
makes a permanent and positive cure
in all forms of stomach trouble, ex-
cepting cancer.
r. r. Bellamy makes a very liberal
ing a guarantee with every SO cent box
he sells that If the remedy does not
give satisfaction. it will cost nothing.
Begin its use at once, and see how
quickly you will get relief.

What do you mean by that state
ment?" demanded Mr.. Mitchell. -
Mr.. Parker: Il have issued free
transportation on your account"
MT. Mitchell strenuously denied this
charge and demanded that the state
ment be withdrawn. Mr.. Mitchell said
he was untrue and defied him TO prove
il, saying he had never been under
obligation TO any railroad.
Mr.. Parker said so far as he knew
Mr.. Mitchell had never been granted
any personal favor.

Mitchell at Spring Valley, Ills. had
been given transportation, and that
Mr.. Mitchell knew nothing of it Mr..
Parker then withdrew the remark.

more probably on Saturday.
The defense introduced numerous
letters designed to show Carter's good
faith.
R. F. Ensley and w j. Harris tes-
titled regarding character of the work
done by Greene and Gaynor in ha-bor
improvements. Both witnesses were
employed as inspectors. They found
the mattresses properly constructed.

w. G. Austin, who also was in in
spector on the harbor work, testified
that he had complained several times
to Carter about the manner in which
the mattresses were being sunk in the
jetty line, and that Carter had reducd
his salary and transferred him to other
works This was brought out by Dis
trict Attorney Erwin, the witness hav
ing asserted that the fascines were
properly bound and tightly choked
Mayor McGigen, of Fernandina, tes-
titled that the mattresses used in the
Cumberland sound work were strongly
and compactly constructed. He had
seen them in the defendants brush
camps which he had visited through
curiosity and on one occasion when he
was searching on Amelia beach for
the body of a drowned friend he had
found one of the mattresses which
had been washed four miles, two miles

preached by Greene and Gaynor, who
had sought to bribe him.
Carter wrote that he had confronted
Curtis with Greene and that Curtis
charges had fallen fiat as Curtis mis-
apprehended the expressions used by
Greene. Further, Carter wrote, Curtis
admitted he hated Greene and had ac-
cepted his hospitality in the hope that
Greene might make an offer that
would enable Curtis to formulate
charges

an inspector of the army who had
come to Savannah and investigated
and decided that there was no basis
for Curtis charges, was excluded by
