Dude" Smith, Once a Resident Of
Bemidji, in Trouble at East
Grand Forks.
TOOK ADVANTAGE OF POSITION
TO IMPOSE ON LADY IN HACK
Arrested and Given Hearinq...Bound
Over to Grand Jury and
Sent to Jail.

'Dude" Smith, who lived in
Bemidji last winter and drove
hack about the city, has been
arrested, in East Grand Forks,
charged with a serious crime.
Concerning the matter, the
Crookston Journal says:
"At an early hour last Satur-
day morning in East Grand
Forks Dude Smith, hack driver
in the employ of jeff Bart IN Of
the East Side attempted to Grim
inaliy assault Mrs. Agnes Bierds-
man, a young married woman,
who resides in Rugby Junction,
Nd, while she was being con-
veyed from the G. N. depot in
Grand Forks to the home of her
uncle on South Fourth street on
the East Side.
"While the attempted assault
was made early Saturday morn
ing, no arrests were made until
Sunday morning, the police kept
the matter a secret until they
had an opportunity to land the
man whom they suspected of
having committed the crime.
"A young married woman en-.
gagged a cab tt take her from
Grand Forks to East Grand
Forks and when within block of
her destination she discovered
she was net on the right way.
The woman claims that Smith
got off from the cab box, put the
weight on his horses, opened the
cab door and grabbed her by the
throat, demanding that he be
allowed to ravage her person.
She struggled and fought. She
alleges that Smith attempted to
tear of her underclothes and at
the same. time held his hand over
ner mouth. She resisted his
attempts, however, and during
the fight knocked one of the cab
windows out with her foot, secur-
ing her release partially and
commenced to scream for help.
Then. that Smith left the cab
and drove her to her uncle's
house. On leaving her, the
woman claimed that Smith told
her not to say anything about
the trouble and she swore that
she was so frightened that she
willingly agreed not to mention
the affair.
'On entering her uncle,s home
the young lady related her SEN
sational experience to her rela-
tive and Saturday the matter was
reported to the police who im-
mediately com menced an inves-
tigation, which re ulted in
Smiths arrest on Sunday.
''That is the history of the
matter in brief.
"The cab window was intro
duced in evidence and also the
testimony of three cab drivers
who saw Smith take the woman
in the cab from the depot.
"Smith is married to a woman
in the hollow He is charged
with the same offense a week
ago.
