TWO VIOLENT DEATHS.
Grand Forks, ON Milwaukee Road,
q Touch Place.

Tough Place.
WALLACE. Idaho, July 1.-Two
deaths were reported from Grand
Forks, but up to the present time
only most meager details have come
to hand. One of the men appears
to have been foreman in the employ
of Sturdevant & Proctor and to have
been found dead in a room in Muir
rays saloon at Loop. There seems
to have been few marks OF violence
on his body and the only reason for
belief that death was not due to ma
tural causes was a large bruise over
one eye.
The other man appears to have
been a foreigner and to have been
killed outright in a shooting ARRAY.
DR.. D. E. Keyes of Mullan will leave
for Grand Forks tomorrow to make
an investigation.
