MATHIESON'S FATE RESTS
WITH THE JURY FOR VERDICT
Arguments Made By The Prosecution and the Defense the
Jury Is Charged and Retires to Consider the
Case for Verdict.

Several letters were introduced in
evidence, which were written by
Mathieson, the authorship of which
was admitted by the accused man,
in which he had written for Johan-
sons mail, to be forwarded to Port
land, and also to party who had
leased Johanson's farm, in IAN en-
deavor to get money out of the
latter.
Mr.. Funkley questioned Mathie-
son as to how he learned to write
Johanson's name and every other
detail in connection with the letters.
He also questioned Mathieson as to
his ability to talk the English Ian
guage, getting an admission that he
had gotten along fairly we'll with the
new tongue.
At this point the defense rested.
Mr.. Funkley recalled Frank Sim
aneau, Edward Gregg, DR.. Hender-
son and VIM. Fellows in rebuttal.
Most of the testimony given by
these gentleman was relative to
Mathieson having money, after,
Johanson was killed, and also as to
his knowledge of the $40O draft,
which he subsequently had cashed
in the bank at Tenstrike.
DR.. Henderson testified relative to
the nature of the wound which
caused Johanson's death. The
doctor stated that Johanson's eye
was not put out by the wound, but
was left intact; that the wound was
not large, and that he did not think
that it was larger than the muzzle
of the gun which it was admitted
killed Johanson.
E. D. Alger was called and testi-
fed as to the dimensions of the
building in which Johanson was
killed.
At this point the prosecution
requested the privilege of resting
until this morning,in order to obtain
the exact measurements of the room
in which Johanson was killed, and
also for the purpose of making some
experiments as to the effects of
shots fired from the gun which was
in the court room.
This request was. allowed by the
court and the adjournment was
taken until this morning.

BOUND TO FORCE THE
CR00KST0A MILL ON US
Telegram From Crookston to Duluth
News Tribune Asserts Min Will
Be Dismantled and Moved.

Rumors that the Crookston Lum-
Der company intends to move it's
Crookston mill to this city will not
down. The latest is the following,
which is a special telegram from
Crookston to the Duluth News
Tribune:
Crookston, Oct. 2.-Information
has been received from a reliable
source that the large 100000 saw
mill at this point, belonging to the
Crookston Lumber company, is to
be dismantled this fall and removed
to some other place more advan-
tageous. This course was hastened
on account of the big increase in
freight rates which are almost pro.
hibitive for carrying logs.
The mill has been running every
year Tor the last thirty years and In
the last decade has been saving on
an average of 100000 feet of lumber
daily. 1t has afforded employment tc
four hundred men and has been one
of the most important factors in the
development of the city.
1t has not been learned where the
mill will be taken to but it is probable
that it will be removed to some point
in Beltrami county where the com.
pany owns large tracts of pine land.
There are in the neighborhood of 49,.
100000 feet of logs which will be
cut in the few remaining weeks OF
the season."

The jury in the Mathieson case re-
tired at $50 this afternoon, after hav-
ing been charged by Judge McCIenahan.

At 1:2O this afternoon, G.. NJ. Tor
renee began the final plea to the
Jury, on behalf of Peter Mathieson,
whose life hangs in the balance
awaiting the verdict of the good
men and true" who have sat quietly
listening intently to all proceedings
of the trial.
Mr.. Torrance made a very careful
summing up of the case, from the
standpoint of the defendant. He
retold the story of Mathieson'S life,
as given on the stand by the accused
man. He dwelt on Mathieson's s
ignorance of the ways of the
people, who live in this country,
and also of the improbability of
Mathieson having killed his nearest
and dearest friend.
MIR. Torrance brought out the
strong points of Mathieson's evi-
dence, and made the best of case
which, when he first took hold of it,
looked very black for his client.
His argument was of considerable
length, but covered the case in it's
entirety,
The Bemidji daily pioneer. [volume] (Bemidji, Minn.) 1904-1971, 1907-10-04

When court opened this morning
E. Gregg was recalled on behalf of
the state and gave testimony as to
the actual dimensions of the build
ing in which tohanson- was killed,
his evidence being for the purpose
of being used in the closing argu-
ment, to illustrate that the shot
whice killed Johanson could not of
been accidental fired.
The state attempted to introduce
some testimony relative to same ex-
periments which had been made in
firing the gun which killed Johanson,
but the court ruled adversely, and
the testimony was not given.
This finished the case, after which
County Attorney, Funkley, took up
his closing argument to the jury.
Mr.. Funkley spoke for an hour
and three-quarter, and went over the
case thoroughly. He laid great
