BROKE AWAY
Laborer Being Shipped by EN-.
ployment Agent Caught
in the Act,

The belated Duluth train this morn
Ing carried two extra coaches filled
with laborers who were being shipped
from Duluth out to Devils Lake and
st. John on railroad work. The usual
custom of employment agencies in
shipping men. through ARRANGEMENTS
with the railroads, is either to furnish
transportation to them at a nominal
sum or else to furnish it to them with
out charge, providing they have a GER
tain amount OF baggage, which is taken
charge of by the employment agency
people, the men, of course, agreeing to
work upon reaching their destination.
OF course the men are allowed to get
off the train at many of the stations
and 1t very often happens that some of
them, who are not particularly fond of
OF work, do not return to the train
after alighting, but manage to slip
away somewhere until the train pulls
out. They have secured transporta-
ton for considerable distance. per-
haps, for practically nothing, upon the
promise to go to work upon a certain
job, when it really was not their in
tention to fulfill that promise.
An incident which happened this
morning serves to illustrate the
troubles which employment agency
people encounter in matters of this
kind. Shortly after the train stopped,
big, burly fellow, with sandy hair
and moustache, Juggling monstrous
and apparently heavy grip, stepped off
the train and started across the road
at the rear of the Imperial hotel, head
ing for DeMers avenue. He had evil
IDENTIFY been in close touch for some
time with alcoholic spirits of some
sort, and going seemed rather I'M
steady. An employment agency Off
cial in charge of the men on the train
spied the man as he was making his
way across the space at the rear of
the hotel and was after him in mo-
ment, catching up to him as he was
about to turn down DeMers avenue.
The man showed disposition not to
return to the train with the official,
but Officer Blue, who happened to be
near, was called, and the mans hesi-
fancy at once disappeared, and he re-
turned and boarded the train amid the
laughter of the other men.

SMUGGLED BOOZE
ACROSS THE
BORDER
Deputy U. S. Marshal Stout
Passes Through City With
Indians in Custody.

Deputy U. 8. Marshal Gil Stout of
Fargo passed through the city Friday
enroute to Fargo from Rolla and Dun
seth, N. D., where on Friday he took
into custody bunch of six Indians
who are charged under indictments is
sued by the federal grand jury with
the smuggling of liquor across the
Canadian border, or with the sale of
it to Indians.
Tom Machipinis and his son, both
of whom are full blOods, we're nabbed
yesterday by Deputy Marshal Stout at
Dunseith and in the indictments they
are charged with smuggling liquor
across the Canadian line and also with
resisting an officer. The other four
fellows, all half breeds, are Joseph
Brien, Peter NORM, Joseph Lapronaise
and Joseph Rolette. They were ar
rested at Belcourt, in the Turtle
mountains, and in the indictments re-
turned against them they are charged
with selling liquor to Indians.
The crime against the two full
bloods is serious one and punishable
by a heavy fine and long term of i'm
prisonment. 1t seems there is COM
bination between the gang, whereby
the full bloods do the smuggling and
the others complete its sale.
The sextette were to be arraigned
today before Judge Amidon and given
an opportunity to plead.

BILL
County Board Refused to Pay
N. w. Telephone Company's
Bill of $4O4.

The board of county commissioners
held an adjourned session of the July
meeting today for the purpose of audit
ing bills and transacting routine bust
ness. One important matter was the
turning down and rejecting of bill
for $404 for telephone rent for the
past year, rendered by the Northwest
ern Telephone company. About year
ago the board notified the company
that it would pay no more telephone
rental; that if the company wished to
leave the phones in and operate them
on toll basis. it might do SO, and
similarly if it wished to let them re-
main free. But the company did moth
ing and its bill was therefore refused
today.
The application of B. G. Skulason
for refundment of $500 taxes paid
upon a building situated on another
mans property. was refused under
advice of counsel. the attorney gen.
eral having recently held that the
board has no legal right to refund
monies.

TWO DROWNED
Reported That Dave Moor
head and Tom Kennedy
Met Death in Canada.

Word was received in this city this
morning that Tom Kennedy, formerly
employed by DR.. Irwin and Dave Moor
head, a well known farmer of the
Turtle river country, were drowned
yesterday in the Canadian northwest,
the location of the scene Of their
death and the facts leading up to the
casualty being unknown.
DR.. Irwin, it is reported, has sent
out a telegram making inquiry as to
the fact sin the case but no word has
been received at press time. The re-
port has been widely circulated but
details seem to be lacking. Both were
we'll known citizens of this city at one
time, Mr.. Moorhead having resided
here for years.

the people spontaneously respond to
the call, the strike must end in early
failure. All eyes are turned on Mos
COW and the provinces. st. Peters
burg, the governments stronghold, is
expected to be the last to succumb to
state of anarchy into which revolu-
tionists have undertaken to plunge
the country. The battle cry of the
strike, RECOMMENDATION of parliament
for the purpose of celebrating the law
providing for constitutional assembly"
does not ring true and is in fact SIM
ply peaceful slogan to be abandoned
If the government totters when the
true colors will be run up. Members
of workmen's council, in conjunction
with the radical groups of the out
lawed parliament, have arranged to
proclaim themselves provincial gov
eminent if success crowns their con-
verts.
NJ. OnipkO, who was a member of
the group of toilers on the outlawed
parliament, has been arrested at Cron-
stadt and it is stated that there is
little doubt that he participated at
Oranienbaum in the conspiracy which
resulted in the uprising at Cronstadt
Reports of renewed firing at Cron-
stadt reached here this morning but
telegraph communication is cut and
it is impossible to ascertain what has
occurred.
A squadron Of warships arrived in
Cronstadt last night. The vessels are
anchored under the guns of the forts
According to reports from Reval. the
trouble there is not over. 1t appears
that the crews of the Torpedo Abrek
and Destroyer Posioutshny which the
cruiser Pamyat Azova summoned to
join in the mutiny. ran their ships
ashore and took to the woods. The
loyal part of the crew of the Abrek
opened the vessels sea cocks to pre-
vent her from falling into the hands
Of the rebels. The railroad stations
which are occupied by the troops were
the scene of considerable excitement
this afternoon. but trains were run
ming regularly. Railroad men spoke
in rather respondent tone of being
called to strike and it was evident
they would enter the struggle reluc-
family.

PASSENGERS LEAP
TO AVOID THE
CRASH
Watchman Throws Train in
Ditch to Prevent a More
Terrible Catastrophe.

Train No. s, on the Great Northern,
owing to wreck on the Fergus Falls
division late yesterday, did not reach
the city per schedule this morning, and
all north and west bound trains were
held pending its arrival over the other
division.
The wreck which caused No. SIS de-
lay came nearly being catastrophe,
but owing to the presence of mind of
the operator in signal tower, there
was no loss of life. though one train
now lies In ditch.
A message from Fergus Falls, CIV
ing details of the accident, says:
The day Waterman at the inter-
locking switch in this city threw a
Great Northern train from the track
this afternoon. A train, heavy
freight, was coming in from the south,
and the Northern Pacific mixed train
came in at the same time. The North
ern Pacific train was little ahead
and was given the right of way over
the crossing, while the Great Northern
was signalled to stop. The engineer
set the brakes but they failed to work
and the train came on at full speed
down steep grade. The signal man
waited as long as possible, but when
it became evident that a clash was
inevitable he threw the lever and
opened the derailing switch.
The huge engine with the momentum
of forty cars behind it, plunged into
a ditch, plowed an enormous hole in
the earth and finally stopped with
In a short distance of the Northern
Pacific train. The passengers on the
latter leaped from the cars. The en-
gineer and fireman escaped unhurt,
but six cars were derailed with the
engine, and trains will have to 60 over

fessed to the robbery of the cottage

Pasl Neuman Being Tried This After.
noon on Chsrge Of Arson.

Paul Neuman, the boy who was ar
rested yesterday on charge of hav-
ing attempted to burn the Brandt oil
house, Il being given hearing this
afternoon on the charge. A number
Of things have come to light since his
arrest which lead to the belief that
he Is the party who has been respon-
sible for several Of the disastrous fires
which have recently occurred. It has
been found that he is the first person
who reported the fire at the Erickson
barn. the one at the mill, the one
at the Murray barn on the west side
and the Purcell barn. He denies that
he was in the alley yesterday behind
the Brandt store, though three or four
people saw him there. He is only
thirteen years old and there seems to
be something Of the fire fiend in him.
1t is stated that at the mill fire he
went into the stable shortly after he
had quit work In the morning, he hav-
ing at that time been employed on the
night shift, and after coming out
walked over to the Office and told the
bookkeeper that the barn was on fire.
If the stories should be- found to have
foundation in fact, an effort will be
, made to send him to the training
school as no ones property is safe
while he Is at large. States Attor-
ney Wineman of Grand Forks is de-
Tending the boy, and the states inter-
ests are being looked after by As
sistant States Attorney FinlaysOn.

The above questions and REPLIES by
and between counsel and a proposed

roarious than that of the others pres
ent. Alex Mckenzie. it will be re-
called. was arrested at Mekinock by
the Roseau sheriff.
AT the opening of the trial the de-
PENDANT made motion for contin-
uance, but the court denied the ap-
plication.
The attorneys for the defense then
created some excitement by requesting
the court to allow them to withdraw
on the ground that the court had tied
their hands SO they would not be able
to do justice to the defendant, they
not having had time to prepare for
tr!al. The court denied their request
and ordered them to proceed. This
request was made by William J. Brown
OF Warren, MIMI, on behalf of himself
and his associate, r. H. Medicraft.
In the course of his argument Mr..
Brown stated to the court that if the
item of expense was taken into con-
sideration that he would pay from his
own pocket every cent of expense the
court would be put to or the county
by such an adjournment. The court
thanked Mr.. Brown, but ignored his
offer. This is considered by many to
be a grandstand play for sympathy
from the jury, as it is known that Mr..
Brown is acting under an appoint
ment from the court, and that the de-
PENDANT has no money whatever to
pay his attorneys. A challenge was
interposed to the regular panel of
jurymen and the state admitted the
challenge.
The defendant, Mckenzie, is charged
with killing John Stewart in March of
this year at the town of Palmville in
Roseau county, for the purpose of OBJ
tanning $500 which it is known Stew
art had about that time. Mckenzie
is about "a years of age, has good
physique, dark brown hair and blue
eyes. He takes great interest in the
proceedings and laughs heartily over
the amusement which is afforded
through the examination of Jurors.
