May Attack U. S. Outposts

The apprehension of Gen. Funston
over rumors of a possible federal adj
vance upon the American outposts at
Vera Cruz had become a matter of
grave concern. The general anxiety of
officials is increased by knowledge that
a strong rebel force is operating In
Vera Cruz state. In fact, some oth-
Gals are particularly anxious over the
presence of Constitutionalist forces,
for the iatter's campaign plans are
known to include destruction of the
railway between Vera Cruz and Mex
leo City, so as to prevent the flight
of Gen. Huerta and his cabinet from
the capital city should the expected
Constitutionalist occupancy of the
capital become a reality.
Any plan for the extension of the
American lines to strengthen General
Funston's position must be considered
In the light of the state departments
acceptance of mediation and the reit-
Grated assumption that there would be
no advance movement during the pc
Rod of investigation by the mediators
at Niagara Falls.
Disease Threatened
Apart from possible danger from
Mexican bullets is the increasing men
ace of an outbreak of disease in the
low, pest-ridden deserts comprising the
Vera Cruz district. The sanitary off,
GERS of the war department would feel
relieved If the soldiers and sailors
were encamped further within the in
terror, Oh higher ground and away
from the malaria and more malignant
diseases bred in the wastes around
Vera Cruz.
AeropIanes Needed
Damaged and weatherbeaten until
they are no longer considered safe, the
two aeroplanes which have been used
by Gen. Funston for scouting work
along the outskirts of Vera Cruz to-
day were ordered with their crews
back to the aeronautic headquarters
at Pensacola for repairs. They will be
taken on the battleship Mississippi
The imperative need of aeroplanes
for observation service, Gen. Funston
reported that he was at present with
out means of establishing the numbers
or strength of the Mexican forces in
the vicinity of Vera Cruz, led the navy
department tonight to take immediate
steps to replace the damaged ma
chimes.

conferees at Niagara Falls. 1t was up
on this information some believe that
the reported suggestions were mace
of continuing the mediation in fts
present form, Huerta and the United
States to agree to some form OF pro-
visionaI government for Mexico and
the United States to use its influence
to induce Carranza to accept these
terms during a recess of the mediation
conference.
Should such plan be successful, the
mediation conference would resume
and a tri-partite protocol could be
signed.
Another phase of the situation dis
cussed tonight was the possibility that
Gen. CarranZa had contemplated full
reply TO the mediators' communication
eventually and that he might yet do
SO. In this event, 1t was believed the
Washington administration might use
it's influence to assure reception of
such a reply by the mediators. Some
triends of Carranza expressed the
opinion. however, that there would be
no reply from their chief.
Zubaran Surprised
Rafael Zubaran, confidential agent
of Gen. CarranZa in Washington, ex-
pressed surprise when he learned OF
the action of the mediators before re-
ceivIng any word from him as to the
intentions of General Carranza.
In dismissing the idea of participa-
ton in mediation as a result of to-
days developments, some Of Carran-
za's agents declared that the cam
paign against Huerta would be con-
tinued with increased activity. The
movement on Zacatecas, they reported,
had already begun.
Arms end ammunition for Gen. Car
rama aboard the Cuban steamer An
lila, now at Tampico probably will
be unloaded tomorrow. So far as could
be learned this government will take
no steps to prevent the unloading OF
the vessel.

CHARLES BALDWIN
WAS FOUND GUILTY
WILLISTON RANCHER CONVICT
ED OF MANSLAUGHTER IN THE
THIRD DEGREE, GETS FINE OF
$500.

Chas. Baldwin, a prominent rancher
residing near Williston, who acci-
dentally ran down Edon Amundson, a
twelve-year-old Williston lad, with his
auto last August, resulting in the
boys death, was convicted of man
slaughter in the third degree in dis
trict court in this city. The case was
tried before Judge Leighton, States
Attorney Burdick of Williams county
prosecuting. Burdick made quite an
impression upon the jury for his fair
ness to the defendant. While it was
conceded that Baldwin did not inten-
tionally kill the boy, it was shown
that he was criminally negligent as he
ran his auto on the streets of Willis
ton at least 25 miles an hour. This
ought to prove good lesson to those
who persist in driving recklessly. The
Independent understands that the
father of the boy will institute pro-
ceedings against Baldwin for heavy
damages.
Baldwin was defended by Greenleaf,
Bradford & Nash Of this city and Pal
mer & Craven of Williston.

Wife DESERTER
IS GIVEN SEVERE
CAASI SEMENT
BRADY, TIN-HORN GAMBLER,
WHO ABUSED GIRL-WIFE,
WILL UNDOUBTEDLY SERVE
TIME IN PENITENTIARY.

Brady, contemplate wretch who
married comely Minot waitress, Miss
Hinges, about year ago, and then,
after spending her hard-earned mon
ey and abusing her fearfully, was
found guilty in district court Monday.
If he gets the limit, Judge Leighton
will send him to the penitentiary for
five years, and those who heard the
testimony hope the Judge will give
him all that is coming to him.
Brady was tin-horn gambler who
was supposed to have worked in Mi
not. He met Miss Hinges, a good
looking young woman who was en-
ployed as waitress in this city. She
trusted him fully and the day of their
marriage, gave the worthless brute
$165 which she had earned by hard
work. He induced her to accompany
him to Moosejaw, and here the brute
allowed her to accept a job in hotel.
She testified that she earned $40 a
month and practically all Of this mon
ey was turned over to her husband.
He deserted her and she came to Minot
to live with relatives. The case was
put before Col. Scarlet, humane Of
ficer, who worked with Sheriff Kelley
in the matter.
AS a result Brady was apprehended
in Canada, brot to Minot, tried and
convicted. His wife, who recently
gave birth to child, appeared in
court and told her pitiful story. She
said she did not care for the man and
did not desire to live with him again.
Brady has threatened his wife since
arrest but by the time he gets out Of
the pen, he will probably have cooled
off. Mrs. Brady told the humane Of
fcer that Brady once desired her to
accompany him to British Columbia,
there to establish house of i'll fame.
Brady was defended by Chas. D.
Kelso, the defendants mother, who
lives in Texas, having sent $500 for
the defense, it is reported.

There were marks of violence on the

TRAGIC ST0RY0f
HIS SONS DEATH
PROMINENT SAWYER FARMER
RETURNS FROM OREGON,
WHERE HE SPENT THE WIN
TER-VISIT WAS MARRIED BY
TRAGIC DEATH OF M. D. VEL
TY.

Mr.. and Mrs. J.. s. Welty Of Sawyer,
passed thru Minot Wednesday en-
route from Gresham, Ore, where they
spent the winter at the home of their
son, Dee, we'll known in this vicinity.
He recently completed a fine home for
himself. Mr.. Welty likes the west
and will probably locate there some
time. When he came away the grass
was knee high and flowers were in
bloom. He ate apples that had re-
mained on the trees during the win
ter. He says the land sells at from
5000 to $400 an acre, too high for a
farmer to buy.
Mr.. Welty's visit was marred by
one incident, briefly mentioned in the
Independent. His son, M. D. Welty,
"a years of age, who spent last sum-
mer on the home farm at Sawyer,
was shot and killed at Reno, New, by
a fellow miner. The young men had
gotten into dispute over light. Mr..
Welty was sitting up reading in the
bunk house one night, and his COM
panion complained because he did not
turn out the light. Mr.. Welty replied
that he would do so as soon as he had
finished the piece he was reading.
This caused his companion to call
him vile names and the next morning
Mr.. Welty asked him to apologize. In
stead, the miner pulled revolver
from beneath his mattress and shot
Mr.. Welty dead. N. d. Weltyof Saw
yer went out to attend the funeral.
Dee Welty went to Reno and took the
remains to Gresham, where they were
inferred. Mr.. Welty and family have
the sympathy of many friends over
the tragic death Of their son.
