The Bottineau courant. (Bottineau, Bottineau County, N.D.) 1895-1929, 1908-06-26

Inc most dCTOC1OuS "uIUcI
in the history of Bottineau
county was committed about
five o'clock Sunday evening at
Somber postoffice in the ex-
treme northeast corner of Bot
tineau county, when Post
master F. w. Seidel and his
niece, Alexandra Seidel,
young girl of sixteen, were
slain, their bodies mangled
and left in the burning build
ing to be consumed by the
flames.
Three breeds, who had been
seen hanging around the store
and postoffice during the after
noon, are suspected the crime
and are now under arrest.
The first one captured was
Little Rising Sun, a fulblood
Indian who was caught near
the main entrance of Gollmar
Brothers show shortly after
noon yesterday by E. c. Bow
en-, G. r.. WILDER and Rogers
St. Pierre, an Indian interpret
er from Dunseith. Joseph
Peltier, the oldest Of the three
wanted was caught along the
creek between the Indian camp
and the slaughter house north
west of the city by E. G. Bowen
after a lively chase in Andy
Johnston's auto. E. G. Bowen
and Deputy Sheriff Richard
Bond gave chase on foot and
each fired three shots at the
fugitive who was making every
effort to escape. He finally
threw up his hands and Bowen
and Bond brought him to town
in the Johnston automobile.
Andy Johnston, James Bacon,
Harry Potter and Rogers St.
Pierre were in the party that
made the capture. He had a
repeating rifle at the railroad
bridge and was making an
effort to reach the gun when
apprehended by the officers.
The rifle was a long range
Marlin with seven shells in the
magazine.
Charles Peltier, a breed about
eighteen years old, was captur-
ed about midnight last night
while in hiding near the home
of his uncle near Dunseith, he
was brought to Bottineau and
placed in Jail during the night.
!. Alex. Peltier was also arrest
ed at Dunseith yesterday and
brought here about mid
night. He is not thought to
be connected with the crime
but is held on another charge
and as a witness.
Little Rising Sun had about
four dollars in small change on
his person when arrested and
Joe Peltier about three. There
are blood stains on Charles
Peltier's jacket. He stoutly
maintains the stains are rust.
Joe and Charles Peltier and
Little Rising Sun have been
identified by persons who saw
them at the Seidel store Sun
day and there is little doubt
they are the ones wanted for
the brutal murder. They will
be given a preliminary hearing
tomorrow or Monday. +
The murder was probably
committed shortly before five
o'clock. The last persons to
see Seidel and his niece were
Oscar Randall, Ole Solum and
Ellis Nelson. Randall left the
postoffce and store shortly be-
fore five o'clock and about half
an hour thereafter Amos Hiatt
and his wife and baby drove
up and discovered the building

on fire. Hiatt drove to Dougal
Martins, about mile distant,
and Martin and H. Solomonson
came back with him. They
found Seidel's body lying near
the front door of the postoffice
and pulled it from the burning
building. The clothing was
almost completely torn from it,
the face badly cut and the back
of the head beaten almost to a
pulp. The body of Alexandra
Seidel was not found until
after the building had burned
and was then discovered in the
ruins, the arms and lower
limbs burned completely off
and only part of the skull
remaining intact. 1t is the
opinion of the physician who
examined the body that the
skull had been fractured. The
body was found in a room used
as sitting room in the north
east corner of the building.
The murder was reported to
the authorities in Bottineau
about eleven o'clock Sunday
night and States Attorney E.
G. Bowen and his stenographer
Miss Margaret Carpenter, Dep
uty Sheriff Richard Bond and
Acting Coroner Mark Hawker
left at once for the scene of the
crime. An inquest was held
Monday before a coroner's jury
composed of the following:
Dougal Martin, Benjamin Bac-
on and William H. Stokes.
The evidence introduced was in
part as follows:
Oscar Randall of Ackworth
was the first witness called.
He testified that he was ac-
quainted with F. w. Seidel and
his neice, Alexandra Seidel,
had known the former for
eight years. He was in Somber
between the hours of three and
four o'clock Sunday afternoon
and saw three men in Seideps
store whom he described as
follows: The one man was
a medium sized fellow, dark
complexion, black moustache,
dark eyes, about five and one
half feet tall and to my know
ledge weighed about one hun
dred and sixty. Talked Eng
lish fairly we'll. Had on a
heavy working shirt. One of
the other fellows was kind of
a slim built fellow and was
also dark complexioned and I
judged him to be about sixteen
or eighteen years of age,
smooth faced and dark haired.
The third fellow was kind of
a more chunky stout fellow
and had very fleshy face and
prominent nose and dark COM
plexion." He could not re-
member whether he had ever
seen the men before. They
were doing some trading and
talked pleasantly with Seidel
about every day occurances.
They had the scales down on
the floor and the witness and
his wife and Mr.. Seidel and
the oldest of the three were
weighed. Was at Martin q
when Hiatt rushed up and
announced that the store was
burning and rushed into the
barn and got his team out
and drove back.
Amos Hiatt testified that he
and his wife and baby drove up
to the Somber postoffce be-
tween five and six o'clock
Sunday evening. AS he drove
up he noticed fire in the north.
east corner of the sitting room
of the house. He ran up to
1.-The window and saw what
seemed to be a quilt laying
on the floor and it seemed tc
be soaked in coal oil. There
|seemed to be a body on the

Railroad earnings are a factor IN the
situation. They are showing the ex-
pected decreases in all sections of the
country, and it is fortunate that the
market has practically discounted the
losses. The decision Of the Supreme
Court, in the matter of the first secIion
OF the ElklnS' law being constitutional
ana not Vitiated BY the Hepburn bill,
was something of a disappointment to
the street. This section - the one that
makes rebates illegal. Despite all that
