G. n. R. R, FAILS
TO FURNISH SPECIAL
For Taft Meeting at Crookston
and Disappoints Hundreds
of People.

1t was great disappointment to
hundreds Of people in this city. and
along the whole St. Vincent line.
when it was announced Monday
morning that no special train would
be run to Crookston for the Taft
meeting. The train had been we'll
advertised. the Republican COM
mittee of Crookston had deposited
the amount of guarantee required
by the company. and big crowds
were at the different stations ready
and anxious to 90 to see the next
President of the United States. To
learn then at the last moment that
there would be no train was a sore
disappointment. Lack of rolling
stock is given as the excuse by the
railway company.
Nothing daunted. the ardent Taft
men of Warren set about to get up
special of their own. Three auto
mobiles were soon moving at break
neck speed in the direction of
Crookston: Justice Carlson in his
White steamer with DR.. Wattam. II.

Taralseth in his swift Buick touring

The Buick made the trip of 30 miles
in less than an hour and half and

T.. p. Buys Another Railroad.


St. Paul. MINI. Sept. 3O.-From all
indications. it would appear that the
Great Western Railroad. with head
quarters and all. has been sold to the
Canadian Pacific road. and the
transfer of property is about to take
place.
For the past month there have
been innumerable rumors of the deal.
but up to now. no tangible evidence
of the transfer could be found. The
possession of the Great Western is
absolutely necessary to the Canadian
Pacific which intends to compete
with the other roads for the Chicago
| trade. '.-.: 80
. Now it appears that Sir Thomas
Shaughnessy. president of the
Canadian Pacific. has made many
secret trips to Saint Paul to visit A.
B. Stickney. president of the Great
Western. The Great Western
Officials are verv reticent on the
meaning of these visits. But better
evidence of the sale is to the effect
that it is announced in Saint Paul
from Winnipeg that the Canadian
Pacific trains are all ready TO run
over the Great Western tracks into
Chicago and that the schedules have
been arranged. Also that Traffic
managers are making deals for the
transportation of freight into
Chicago. .t'- ~-
The Great Western has been finan-
cially embarrassed for a considerable
time. 1t is now found that it needs
$55. 600, 600. 90 to put it on it's feet.
The stockholders of the Canadian
Pacific will furnish the money. and
as soon as the receivershiD is taken
off the Great Western, the &c. P"
will buy the prope rty outright.

Benjamin Bren. a prominent and
Well-to-do falmer of Tabor township.

field about quarter of mile from
the house at 8 O'Clock Monday morn
ing and shot himself thru the head
with rifle. His hired man saw him
commit the rash deed. Mr.. Bren
had been to East Grand Forks about
a week before and procured supply
OF alcohol. He had drank great
deal of it. but his family mad taken
the stuff from him and he had not
touched it since Friday. His brain
had been so greatly affected by the
poison, however, that his mind had
become unbalanced. and he had
threatened to do himself bodily
harm. For that reason he had been
watched. yet, in an unguarded
moment he slipped away and did the
deed which he brought great sorrow
to his family and his many relatives
and friends. Death had resulted in
stantly.
Deceased was 81 years old and
leaves widow and five children. the
Oldest child being nine years and the
youngest six weeks. He was in good
financial circumstances and a kind
husband and father. His brothers.
John w. and Joe B. Bren are pioneer
farmers Of Tabor. now residing in
Warren, and are successful and high
ly respected men. -Four other
brothers. Frank. William. Edward
and George Bren reside at Hopkins,
MINI. They we're all present at the
funeral which took place yesterday.
Much sympathy is expressed for the
bereaved family and relatives of de-
ceased. And thus another victim
has been added to the long list for
which King Alcohol is responsible,
either directly or indirectly.

SEEK TO PROVE
MURDERER SANE
Father of Judges Slayer Leads
Legal Battle to Secure
Sons Liberty

TACOMA, Wash, May 2o.-Wnen the
third day of the inquiry as TO the pres
ent mental condition OF Chester Thomp-
son, slayer of Judge George Meade
Emory. closed this afternoon, Prose-
cutor II. G. Rowland was satisfied that
he had laid the foundation showing
that Thompson is a paranoiae and that
another brain storm might overtake
him again If there was an excitable
cause to bring 1t on.
Thompson was led over the many de-
lusions he had had during the four
years previous 10 the tragedy. The
state based its questions upon the
transcript OF evidence given by the
petitioners father and the latter s
opening and closing address 10 the jury
when he defended young Thompson OF
the murder charge a year ago and ac-
quilted him.
The state maintains that Chester
Thompson is still victim Of paranoia
or form of dementia precox. On the
witness stand Thompson made good
showing in his own behalf and appears
strong mentally and physically. He now
denies that he believes in his former
delusions.
Attorney Shipley, assisting the petit
toners father in the defense, says the
fact that Chester admits he once suf-
fered from hallucinations and so freely
described them is strong point in his
favor, because. he says. those sufferin z
from paranoia would never admit that
their fancies were vagaTies of the mind.
Thompson was on the stand all day.
He contrAsted his weak mental and
physical condition Of the past with his
improved condition now.
The state contends that paranoia is
incurable and, once a sufferer. that per
son is hopelessly insane. II viii be 10
days before the inquiry is finished and
the case given 10 the jury.
