500 TRAINS START MONDAY
Regular Mail, Passenger and Freight
Service, Says President.

On next Monday, Nov. II, regua
lar passenger, mail and freight ser
vice will be inaugurated on the new
500 Line through Bemidji, from
Moose Lake to Plummer.
Official news for the starting of a
complete train service was contained
in letter received by the Pioneer
today from Edmund Pennington,
president of the Minneapolis, St.
Paul and Sault Ste. Marie Railway,
in which he makes this statement:
We are now n owing freight on
the line but it will be regularly open
ed on Nov. IA. On that date we
shall inaugurate a regular local
freight and passenger service"
The government has consummated
contracts with the 500 for a mail
service to start on that date.
There are 26 stations on this line
but not more than half a dozen
depots have been completed. In its
desire to conform with the public's
demand for service, the 500 Line
will utilize box cars and old buildings
for Temporal stations, building SUBJ
stantial depots as rapidly as possible.
The depot in Bemidji, which is to
be substantial $4,000 structure to
be shared with the Minnesota & In.
ternational, has not been started and
the 500 traffic will be hardied out of
the frame building on Minnesota
avenue which has been the head.
quarters for the 500 construction
force.
The depot agent for Bemidji has
not been named and the time table
has not been made up but on Mon.
day a passenger train will be run
each way as will also a freight train
and this service will be maintained
every day with the exception Of Sun.

IMMENSE CROWDS SEE
UNCLE TOMS CABIN

There are some things in which
the people never lose interest and
Uncle Toms Cabin seems to be one
of them.
Last night, the Majestic Theatre
presented the old slave play enacted
in pictures and at times the crowd
at the theatre was so great as to
make it necessary to hold them back
from the doors so as not to overcrowd
the theatre.
This is the first time the old
play has been presented in moving
pictures in Bemidji and the tact
that hundreds of people were un-
able to get into the theatre for any
of the performances shows that
this old play IS still the bigges,
| drawing card in American theatres.
"The best I ever saw" "It's
just great" "Never saw anything
like it," Expressions such as
these were heard continually as
the audience left this popula,
playhouse.
The last show tonight commences
at $40 and while you are waiting
for election returns drop in and sec
this film performance.
The manager of this playhouse
said: Never in the history of the
Majestic have we turned as many
people away as we did last night
with Uncle Toms Cabin"

council that he was innocent of
any wrong doing. He paid fine

liquor the day before bis license

that the closing of his place at
this time is a gross injustice.

the bank vaults were doubled
during the night.
"Captain Otto and Lieutenant
Hillary arrived on the morning of

placed in charge of the entire

"With but eighteen men, the
work was pretty tough on the boys.

The Bulletin also runs this from
attorney General Simpson:
Prevent Carnival of Crime.
Every citizen of Minnesota should
thank God that the state has the
kind of national guardsmen she has.
Those men have made everything
possible. Up in that far corner of
the state. isolated from the rest of
the world, where kilograms were de-
livered by mail four days after they
were sent, those boys prevented a
carnival of crime that would have
caused every honest citizen to hide
his face for shame. In a country of
that kind there are always gamblers
and blacklegs. who are waiting for
a chance to plumber the helpless
refugees, but the national guards.

LAW SUIT AGAINST / TYSON GROWS OUT
 SPORT HILL CLIMB

The aftermath of the Sport Hill climb of May 31st last when a monster Isotta car, owned by John H. Tyson of Stamford and driven by Glenn Eth ridge, a professional driver, skidded from the road at the IS" turn of the hill and drove into the pack of hu- manity which huddled close to the wall, injuring many, came today when William G. German of Frank street, through his counsel. Attorney Rob ert G. DeForest brought suit in the Superior court against Tyson asking for $5,000 damages.
 German alleges that the driver of the machine recklessly ran the ma chine in defiance to all speed laws. That he, the plaintiff exercised due care and was seated on the wall at the time of the accident.

 It seems to be the opinion of many that the owners of the car are re- sponsible. The Supreme Court of New York only few days ago hand ed down a decision against the Loco- mobile Go. of this city, by which a young man of Stamford is awarded damages of $7,000 for injuries receiv ed while witnessing the Vanderbilt cup race last year. Others hold the opinion that the racers can not be held responsible in such cases, that the spectators are assembled in a dangerous place, knowing it to be dangerous, at their own risk, and that they are responsible for any in juries received by them in such a case. ~A

SUGAR TRUST MEN WONDER WHAT IS
 THE NEXT SHOCK
Special from United Press,

New York, May 24-Attorneys for the accused employees and former em- ployes Of the sugar trust. now on trial for conspiracy to defraud the govern ment by shortwe1ghting sugar, are to- day wondering what the government has in reserve. The calling of Oliver Sp1tzer yesterday was a distinct shock and his evidence particularly damag- Ing to several of the defendants. but coupled with the rumor that it was only the nrst of series of trump cards in reserve, it has created a stir.
 It is known that Prosecutor Stim- son would like to involve certain of the directors and former directors of me trust. He has secured a consid- erable amount of documentary evi- dence and expects that by working through SpitZer he can get some of those who know the connecting links to come through with the desired information
 When the Heike trial was resumed today it was expected that J. M. voeI- ker and James A. Halligan. Jr.. for mer checkers, and Harry w. Walker. former assistant to Spitzer would withdraw their former pleas before the day was out and plead guilty. Spit ger sWore they used the steel springs 6g oy which the sugar. was under weigh
 It developed today that Washington

 Richard Whalley, who aided Special Agent Parr in making the raids on the sugar trusts dock, was the chief witness today. He repeated the story told at trial confirming Parr's testi- mony in every particular
 John H. Thompson, for some years employed in the Wall street offices of the trust, swore that he had charge or the import department and that ourlng all his experience he never came into contact with the govern ment rates. "I paid for all sugar i'm ported on the returns of the city Welghers. he said. While the clerk Who had charge of the custom duty sat only 15 feet from me knew notT1 Ing about his work or he about mine Ine city Welghers returns were com pared with the bills of lading and the sugar paid for on these returns"
 The witness swore that whenever, there was any indicated discrepancy ne had instructions from the late H. O- HaYemeyer to phone BendernageI. Ine cashier at the docks, and the latter nxed It up. He swore that during his entire service in the main offices of the trust there was no. indication there mat the government was being de. Irauced Of customs duties
