fact that he wanted to go only as

Hanson started on his way home
from Bemid j and arrived at the

was pulling out. Thinking that
the train would stop at the 'sY, "
thus taking him part of his way
home, he jumped aboard but
when the train came to the s'Y"
it kept on, at full speed and the

Body ofUDknOWn Man Found
16 Miles Northwest Of
Northome "Wednesday.
BOTH WRISTS CUT AND STABBED
IN THROAT.
Body Taken to NorthOme and In
yestigation BY Authorities
Will Follow.

The remains of an unknown
man was found. Is miles north
west of Northome Wednesday
lying bya haystack. The dis
covery was made by Henry
Hollis, homesteader, who went
to.the haystack. to secure some
hay. While shoyeling away the
snow around the haystack he
came upon the body, which, was
embedded in the snow and had
evidently been there for some
time. Eg8s
Hollis drove to Northome and
notified the deputy county, cor.
oner, DR.. G. R., Ward, who or
dered the body brought to that
village. An examination of the
body revealed that both wrists
had been cut, evidently with the
intention OF severing the arteries,
and a knife wound was found in
the man s throat. The body was
covered with,ice and was frozen
so that complete examination
has been impossible so far, but
this will be made as soon as the
body is thawed out sufficiently.
When found the man was lying
on his back and his coat was
lying across his feet. His clothes
were saturated with blood. just
how the man met his death is a
conundrum and the circum-
stances surrounding the affair
lead some to believe that he met
foul play.

SUSPECT
REDS OF CRIME
Now Generally Believed John
Bungy Was Killed BY Red
Lake Indians.

q = & N = ~.
Pine River, MINI, Feb. "a.
Subsequent Investigation Of the
circumstances surrounding the
finding Of the body of John
Bungy, an Indian, off the Red
Lake reservation, have increased
the suspicion that Bungy met
with foul play and that his body
was placed upon the railroad
track, near Longville, to hide the
crime. The finger Of suspicion
points toward two fellow Indians.
Bungy was in Longville, drunk,
an hour and a half before his
body was found. The only train
over the line during that time
wasia supply train. The body
lay head foremostin an opposite
direction from thatsin which the
train was moving, however, and
one foot lay inside the rails, but
there was,no blood near the body
nor was there any evidence that
the body had been rolled around.
Within foot of the dead man s
head lay an empty flask and his
pocket knife, side by side in such
a precise position that it seemed
as if they were laid there for a
purpose. ,. Z. E z. 1.'.-t'f,
1t is now known that a couple
of Indians told Bungy to clear
out from that part of the reser-
walton, ''to stay out and not come
back These two men were in
Longville Sunday evening with a
team and sled. On the tote road
near the track. and just above
the spot where the body was
found, tracks showed where a
team had gone by and turned
around and just a, little farther
back in the snow were indications
Of a heavy struggle. The sup
position is now that the two
Indians made good their threat
and murdered Bungy while he
was walking back to the. reserva-
tion on the railroad track.
Nothing has been done to APP
prehend thelmen under suspicion
as the reds on the reservation
are not under jurisdiction of the
village officials, who hesitate to
take ANY hand, in the matter
without the proper authority,

and several lively. tits occurred.
Some ofthe signers we're of the
opinion that. q peaceable settle

city council could legally pay for
the right of way. Others refused
to entertain this idea, declaring
that the names Of the men who
affixed their signatures to the
petition were secured by false
representations and therefore
they were not entitled to any
liability.
AS soon as it IS known whether
or not the extension of time in
which the answer to the sum
