May Go to St. Cloud.

The election of officers was the
concluding business of the conven-
ton. St. Cloud was suggested as
the next meeting place but it re-
mains for the xecutive council to de-
eide this.
w. L. Brooks of the Northern Ma
tional Bank wishes to call particular
attention to the fact that all bills
contracted for by the bankers during
the convention yesterday should be
presented to him at this bank immed-
lately for payment. H. G. Baer,
cashier of the Security State Bank
and Mr.. Brooks have this matter in

Marked Money Traced.
"Forty dollars of the marked one
hundred dollars which was given to
DR.. Dumas at the yegg meeting in
Bemidji last Wednesday has been
located" says Mr.. Fielding. "We do
not care at this time to divulge
where the money is, but we can
easily trace the currency directly to
the possession of the doctor, con-
! firming our statement that the de-
tective with the robbers in Larson's
saloon in Bem1dji gave the doctor
the marked bills. In fact, Mr.. Full.
erton and our. agency are going to
back up with evidence every asser-
ton We havesmade with relation to-
this affair.""
LeClaire May Be Caught,
There is suspicion that Ed LIE
Claire is in this vicinity, and rumor
has it that the detectives and other
officers are keeping sharp lookout
for the man who bears the reputation
of being about the most skillful safe
blower and most desperate criminal
in the entire country.
The officers will admit nothing in
connection with LeClaire but say
something big is liable to drop any
moment. 49,
Says He Saw Davis.
A prominent resident of Cass Lake
who was in Bemidji yesterday as
serted the he saw Davis at Cass Lake
Sunday following the Puposky fight,
but that he was afraid to give out
the information because of vengeful
acts that might be committed towards
his person or property which he
owned at Cass Lake. The officers
are looking into the matter.
Reward of $500 Offered.
Detective Fielding said this
morning that Governor Eberhart had
added to the original reward of $500
offered for the capture of Davis max
ing the total $1,000 for the appre-
hension of the robber who made a
clean getaway from the store at
Puposky.
Every train that comes in and
goes out of Bemidji is being watched
in order that no outside crooks or
cracksmen may get here to assist
in thwarting the officials in gather
ing evidence.
DR.. Dumas in Bemidji.
Last night, additional information
was given the officers relative to
fires in another town near Bemidji
which are to believed to have been
of an incendiary nature.
DR.. Dumas was in Bemidji last eve
ming. He posed for sketch by
tsRawson," artist for the Minnea-
polls Tribune and was in high
spirits.
Prisoners Wife Here.
Mrs. Bean, wife of the prisoner in
jail here, arrived in Bemidji this
morning.
Mrs. Bean who is making her
home with Archie McKinnon, could
not be found this morning. When
asked as to whether Mrs. Bean was
in Mrs. McKinnon said: .s-.-.=
"Mrs. Bean lives here, but she has
not been in since early this morning,
I and upon leaving she said nothing
as to where she was going. do
not know when she will return"

With the arrival in Bemidji from

J. c. Fielding, interest in the Dumas
affair is divided between St. Paul and
Bemidji.
Mr.. Fielding says that Sam F.

will not arrive in Bemidji for several
hours, possibly not before tomorrow,
and that developments of a sensa-

IN INTERNATIONAL FALLS TODAY
Meeting Come to Close Here After
One of Most Successful and I'm
portant Conventions.

Coming to the most northerly coun-
ty in the state in two special trains
of palace cars, the Minnesota Bank
ers association yesterday listened to
notable talks by former Congressman
James A. Tawney of Winona, Lafay-
cite Young of the DesMoines Capital
! and others, consumed 500 pounds of
pike at an open air dinner in the lake
shore forest, elected officers, and de-
cided to call bankers agricultural
conference to be held in the Twin
Cities in October with representa-
tives from at least eight states. The
bankers also decided to request the
associations of North Dakota, Wis
consin, Iowa and South Dakota to
join in a movement to remove the
National bank act restrictions on the
loaning of money of farm mortgages.
Weld Couldn't Come.
The program was carried out as
originally intended with the excep-
ton that Frank Weld, president of
the Moorhead Normal was unable to
come and deliver a talk. -.ss-----~.
The local arrangements were in
the hands of H. G. Baer, A. G.. Wedge,
w. L. Brooks and R. H. Schumacher,
and there was no hitch in any of the
convention plans. The bankers are
gracious to the public for the assist
ance and particularly to all persons
who aided in the fish dinner on the
lake shore.
At 2 o'clock this morning the
bankers left in their thirteen special
cars, drawn in two sections for In
ternational Falls where they spent
today. Interest in the Bemidji meet
ing was heightened by the fact that
this city is the seat of the Mayor

and stated that the club had accom-

building of their own. She asked that
the city give $500 a year to the
library, as the club had about ar
ranged to purchase the Crum build

be done for about $4,000. They de-

Friday night Alderman Wannamaker
made q motion that the city engineer
get 10 plans for paving East Russell
street from Lowman street to the
Southern depot, provided the rail-
road will pave around the depot. The
engineer estimated the cost Of this
work to be SS,203 for the city and
s1,677 to the railroad company. The
motion stated that If the railroad
would consent to do this the paving
would be commenced at once. This
Is a fair proposition and the South
ern Railway should accept it.
