whether or not they knew or had any
thing to do with the murder of the six
foreigners at 243 Tenth avenue south

New York, April 5-The subcommit-
tees representing the anthracite ope-
ratOrS and the mine workers of East
Pennsylvania held their first joint
meeting here yesterday, and after
nearly a three hours session ad-

Each interest has refused to make the

hacked and mutilated bodies OF SIX
BuIgarians, evidently workmen, lying
in deep pools of cosgulated blood In
little tumble-dOwn house, at 10 o'clock
in the morning.
Four of the bodies were found In a
sleeping room on the second floor, cut
and slashed in a most horrible man
ner. while in the cellar were two 9TH

inches long. having the regulation
hunting knife handle of horn, and

The dead: Nicolo Dimitrf, Kirle
Demitri, Agne Karofil, Kerstan Yovko.
Unka Naudaba, Baakon Kapanni.
The Dimitris were evidently father
and son. All of the men were COM
paratively young and smooth shaven.
From this clue the police believe the
murders were committed sometime be-
tween midnight Sunday and Monday
morning. This suspicion is clinched
by the statements of S. Magnuson.
owner Of the house where the murder
occurred.
At about 10 o'clock yesterday he
asked the police to search the house.
He said that an aged German who oc-
cupied the lower floor of the house
could not be found. He it was who no

place in the rooms over the ones oc-
cupied by the German Sunday night.
Magnuson at once called up Patrol

Mystery Surrounds Gang of Labor
ers Found Murdered IN Lodgings.

Minneapolis. March 2S-Six murdered Bulgar-
ian laborers were found to-day in an old house
at No. 245 Tenth avenue South. and the police
are uncertain how or when the murders were
committed. Robbery was not the cause of the
murders. as considerable money was found on
the bodies.
-Four of the bodies. cut and sIashed with knives.
were found in a room on the second floor. while
IN the cellar were two others with their throats
cut Near the bodies were found five large bowie
knives and a hatchet.
The nationality Of the men was determined
by the Rev. Boskowicz. pastor Of Greek
church, who read letters found in the house
s. Magnuson, owner of the house. says that
an Italian rented the upper part of the house
four months ago to use 1t as home for twelve
railroad IabOrers. of whom he was foreman. Inc
twelve men moved into the house. and lived
quietly, working every day. The Italian Iore-
man was never seen again by Magnuson
This morning an old German who occupied
the first floor of the house told Magnuson that
a fight had occurred in the upper rooms on Sun
day night. After informing Magnuson Of the
fight the German disappeared.
The police then broke into the Bulgarian 5
lodgings The two bodies in the basement ac-
cording to Coroner Kistler, had been dead nearly
two days The bodies in the upper rooms ap-
peared to have been killed more recently. The
police say that the men found in the basement
may have been murdered for their money, and
that a fight followed upstairs over division OF
the spOils
Near the bodies found upstairs were two
money belts containing S506 in gold on one OF
the bodies a watch. still going. was found. Some
of the bodies had been stripped.
