PLOT TO KILL ONE MAN
ENDANGERs FIFTY LIVES

To have their revenge upon a loco
motive engineer who refused TO allow
them to ride on his engine, Juan Tapy
and Carliaz Tany, Filipinos, plantation
workers, laid an internal plot near La
haina few days ago, which, had it
succeeded, night have cost the lives
Of fifty persons that revenge upon one
might be enjoyed.
In the Lahaina district court the
FiIipinos pleaded guilty and were SEN
fenced by Judge John Brown.
In their confession, the men told how
they had been refused a ride by a
engineer on the plantation,
and had been obliged 10 walk long
way to their camp. In order to get
even, they planned to wreck the train
which they knew the engineer would
be in charge Of at high trestle in
the Pukolii district.
The fact that the train would ar
rive at the bridge before daylight, tax
ing gang Of workmen 70 the fields,
was taken into account by the plot
tiers, and from the testimony given at
the trial, their plan failed only because
Of the chance passing Of the man who
gave the warning, fr .5s tii9f.

TAKE OFF TRAINS 5 AND 6
New Schedule Goes into Effect June
9TH. Nos. and 2 Will do More
Local Work.

On June 7th passenger trains Nos.
5 and 6 are to be taken off the
Northern Pacific. The announcement
came as quite surprise as it had
been generally supposed that the dull
season in this service was drawing to
an end. However it is the belief now
among some Of the officials of the
road that Nos. and will not be put
into the service again until the 1915
coast business starts.
This will leave the people with the
service of but two passenger trains
daily each way. However Nos. and
2 will do more local work, probably
making such stops as Richardton,
Hebron and Glen Ullin, east of Dick
inson. This will lengthen the sched-
ule a little and it is possible that No.
2 will arrive in Dickinson quite little
later. than the present hour Of three
o'clock. A day coach will be attached

KUNz RESCUED
RECENTLY FROM
NEAR VERA CRUZ

w. F. Kunz arrived from Midway
on Monday, where he has spent the
past week looking after the land in
terests Of his father, VIM. Kunz.
Mr.. Kunz spent nearly two years in
the vicinity Of Midway in 1910 and
1911. He then returned to his home
in Chicago and went from there to
Mexico. The last two years have
been spent on sugar cane planta-
ton at Vista Hermosa, which is 70
miles south Of Vera Cruz. He was
one of the fugitives, held prisoner by
the Mexicans and rescued by the
English after the occupation Of Vera
Cruz by United States forces.
Up to the time of the taking of
Vera Cruz conditions were not bad
where he was located. After the TAX
ing of the city the Spanish news
papers did all they could to arouse
the Mexicans against Americans.
One evening, without any warning, he
and three other Americans We're ar
rested and taken some 80 miles to-
ward Mexico City, where they were
held as prisoners in the Palace of
Justice at Cordoba. After being
held there over week, they were
taken by the English and conveyed to
Vera Cruz on a train for refugees
and were then put on an American
boat chartered as a ship for refugees.
It was licensed to carry 250 but 61O
were taken on it to New Orleans.
Mr.. Kunz said that none but those
who had escaped could realize what
some had suffered. Of all nationali-
ties in Mexico the Americans are
least respected. The leniency accord
ed the leaders of the different revo-
|lutions and instructions by the
United States, has given the MeM-
cans the idea that they are feared
by our government. The insults and
terrible acts practiced upon American
men and women as told by some Of
the refugees would make ones
blood boil. The changing Of presi
dents, Mr.. Kunz thinks, would not
better the conditions. All those with
whom he came in contact feel that
some outside power will have to en-
ter in order to have peaceful con-
ditions restored. He expects to re-
turn as soon as Americans are al
lowed to enter and business conditions
are restored to their former stability.
At present everything in business
way is at a standstiH.
