PINKERTON BAFFLED Detectives Give Up the Quir- ing Mystery After Weeks of Investigation. COUNTY ATTORNEY LOUD DISAPPOINTED, MUCH Weeks of Expert and Careful Search Develop Absotutely Nothing. The Quiring m\'stm y, the dis- appearance of N. ‘0. Dahl and his duught.u from their homestead is more of a mystery today after a thorough and careful iny gation by expert detectives hired at the expense of the county and put on the case than ever before. Weeks of systematic and expert search have resulted in nothing. . The detectives employed on the ‘case admit themselves baffled and County Attorney Loud is at a loss as to how to proceed. As soon as the facts in the case were brougnt to Mr, Loud’s at- tention he immediately sccured the services of a Pinkerton and the man has beenat Quiring ever since and has left nothing un- done that might develop a clue. Today he is unable to report any- thing that might vesult in un- raveling the m\,SLOl vy and will return to his home +in St, Paul admitting that it eclipses any- thing’in his experience and baf- fled his ev ery effort to solve it. County Attorney Loud has exhausted every effort to bring to light some clue. The failure after months of vigorous work to develop anything in the -Sulli- ~van disappearance matter was a disappointment to Mr. Loud and he determined to proceed as vigorously as possible in the pre- | sent case. Acting under his in- struction a detective has been at Quiring ever since the disappear- |7 ance was reported, in fact before any of the details were made public. The detective is unable to re- port anything. His theory of the caseis unsupported by the slight- est scrap of evidence. TItis “the same as that entertained by the public in general and by all who are familiar with the case that the Dahl’'s were murdered and the bodies either burned in some remote section of an adjoining swamp or sunk in one of the nearby lakes. Regarding the disposition of the bodies the de- tectives inclines to the latter theory. He visited the Dahl cabina short time after the disappear- ance was first reported. Every- thing was found in order. There were no traces of a strnggle in the cabin. Onone of the beds was found some threads presum- ably from a new mackinaw jacket and the bed was broken down.

Thered was evidently wmore than man implicated in the murder. It is believed that one of the men; may have enticed the father from the house while the other at- tempted an-assult on Miss Dahl. Later perhaps both were mur- dered, the bodies wrapped in the quilts weighted with™ something and talken to the moose wallow-—a small pond, said tobe very deep and sunk. "The theftof a number of ax heads fromnearby logging camps is reported about the same time and-these might have been ‘used for the \\myhta All efforts to locate the moose wallow of which the Quiving people tell have so far been fatile. County Attorney Loud is at a i one ! me the matter. The relatives of the Dahls will be communicated with and an cffort will be made to have the state offer an additional re- ward to that posted a short time ago by the relafiyes. The pros- pect of bringing the murderers, to immediate justice or of the discovery of the bodies seems at present to be more remote than Until the bodies are found there is no substantial clue to ced on. 4y neighborhood gossip at Quiring omhndu-s a number of rumors, all of which have been run down without anything new being brought to light and the case is one of the most mystify- ing which has ever been called to the attention of the-authoritiesin the nor Lln-x n section of thn state.

On Thursday, word was received from the Rapids that neither organization ' could | come; that both were dismem- bered. Cass Lake sent a large delegation to the tournament and it would have been no more than right that a should-come here on the Fourth, However, the comimittee has sub- | stituted the Cass Like baseball team, instead of Grand Rapids, to play against Bemidji, with the laddition of several excellent players, the locals should give a 'gond account of tliemselves.
