INDEFINITE VERDICT 0N DEATH 0F
 LARSON
FIND CARLEssNEsS ON PART OF ENGINEER AND DEATH
 FROM KIDNEY TROUBLE

While the coroner's jury which in- vestigated the death of Charles E. Lar son, who died at the Old Dominion hos pital last Wednesday, after having been injured at the Miami mine made the finding that the deceased was injured through the criminal carelessness of c. R. Allison, a hoisting engineer, no de- cision was reached as to whether or not the injury was the direct cause of his death
 From the testimony at the inquest, Sunday morning, it developed that the deceased had suffered from kidney trou- be for some time prior to the accident. An attack of that disease caused his death, but as the accident injured Lar son about the thigh, rather than the ab- domen. there was doubt in the minds of the jurors as to wether or not the re- suit of the accident brought on the fatal attack.
 Funeral services were he'd yesterday under the auspices of the Knights of Columbus.
 John Larson, father of the deceased will leave this morning for his home at Waupeca, Wis.

FIGHTING INDIANS. SLAMMED INTO
 PRISON
WITH BROKEN HEADS AND SPLIT FACES THEY AWAIT HEARING
 IN POLICE COURT

As the result of fight among mem bers of the local band of Apache In dians. q short distance above town Sunday evening, Oscar Davis and Will jam Matsic are in jail suffering from numerous contusions about the head and body, Richard Wells is charged with an assault with a deadly weapon and other aborigines are either in detinue or be- ing looked for by the officers, for minor parts in the affair.
 Davis is the most seriously injured of the two Apaches on whom an attack was made. He is badly beaten up about the head and one arm was nearly broken as the result of being hit with a boulder.
 Davis alleged actions in appropri- atipg Wells squaw is said to have started the mix up.
 According to Davis story, he and Matsic were returning home just at dusk. Sunday evening, when they met Wells. A few words were spoken and Wells attacked Davis with boulder, striking him over the head several times and then after he had fallen, contin- ming to use the rock with telling eff feet.
 Matsic, who attempted to interfere, came in for share of the beating. Other Indians raised disturbances at the time of the fight and afterwards, one Apache firing several shots, without | injuring anyone.
 The Indians, who were mixed up in the affair declare, almost to a man, that they were not drunk but that the others were.
 The case will probably be threshed ] out in Judge Thomas court today.

SHORT STORIES nF THE CITY
Smelterman Improved

Robert D. Crunk, employed at the O,d Dominion shelter, was seen on the street yesterday. He is just recovering from what might have been a very seri- ous accident--in fact his escope from instant death was miraculous, as nearly a ton of brick fell distance of thirty feet, striking him upon the head, shoulder and knee, lacerating his shoul- der and knee badly, but fortunately striking a glancing blow. Robert feels lucky ,from another point of view, in asmueh as he had just taken out an sccident and health policy with the Benevolent Order of American Miners.

Bar ten der Dies from Overdose
 of Bromide

As the result of an overdose of a bromide compound, James Rennie, 8 bartender well known in this city, died early Sunday morning.
 Rennie had been working at the Coney Island and it is supposed that he took more of the drug than his system could withstand, not knowing the conse- quences.
 An investigation of Rennie's death, by coroner's jury yesterday, failed to show any evidences of suicidal intent on his part.

The new crop of spuds, which is now making its appearance in the local mar ket, is being dished out to the public at eight cents a pound, instead of six, as the Silver Belt was informed and so stated few days ago.
 Dispensers of the new tuber crop claim that this delicacy costs at whole sale too much to allow it to be dis posed of on six cent basis, compell- ing them to charge higher price.
 Potatoes are coming to Globe in good sized quantities, the supply being about equal to the demand at the present time.
