NOT MURDERED, SAYS CORONER Dr. Marcum and Dr. Henderson Perform Autopsy on Martin Brandley. DIED FROM NATWRAL CAUSES THINK THE TWO PHYSICIANS Inquest Will Be Held Tomorrow —Police Learn of Victim's Relatives. The autopsy on the remains of Martin Brandley, who died last Saturday morning, was per- formed on Saturday afternoon by Coroner E. H. Marcum, as- sisted by Dr. A. E. Henderson. At the conclusion of the opera- tion, Dr. Marcum stated that he was satisfied that Brandley came to his death through natural causes and was not murdered. Just what these natural causes were, the coroner did not care to state at the present time; he would confer with County Attor- ney McDonald, and intended to hold the inquest on Tuesday. The police have been active in ascertaining information con- cerning Brandley, his place of residence and who are his rela- tives. The dead man lived for several years at St. Cloud, and has relatives there. He is about 45 years old, and has been cen- sidered a peaceable character, somewhat addicted to the use of liquor. Chief Bailey received a tele- gram from M. S. O'Brien of Min- neapolis, in which the latter states that he is a relative of Brandley and that he (Brandley) has two sisters, Mrs. Henry Reese of Missoula, Mont,, and Mrs. Thos. McDonna of Dickin- son, N. D. Communication has been had with these parties, and it is very probable some ot them will arrive in time for the in- quest. The body will be kept until after the coroner’s investigation, and all of the suspects who were jailed Saturday are being held until after the hearing. Notice. The Wednesday issue of the Pioneer will be issued Tuesday night and delivered early Wednesday morning.

The opening game of ball of the series to be played between the Jacksons of St. Paul and the Bemidji team, yesterday afternoon, resulted in a victory for the locals, by a score of § to 3, and was a surprise to the fans who knew that the Bemidji team was badly crippled. Holstein, the catcher, Hallet, third baseman; and Bungo, who was scheduled to play third, failed to put in an appearance. Fleming of Cass Lake obliged the boys by coming down and going behind the bat and Sum- mers arrived from Duluth on the afternoon trainin time to get into uniform. Mogan was put in right field, and Oman in left; Hazen was placed on third, and Lee LeGore officiated at the sec- oxzd sack, with old “Dad” Lewis at first. While the team was somewhat patched up, it did not lack in ginger and went right after the visitors from the start. Farley LeGore did the twirling for the home team and pitched a fine game. He struck out 10 op- posing batsmen, allowed but 6 hits, and gave one base on balls. The last two innings he was simply invincible, and the hard hitters from the Saintly town could do nothing with his deliv- ery. Williamson, one of the best of the twirlers 1n the twin cities, lobbed ’em over for the Jacksons, and he also did good work, He “fanned” nine batsmen, gave three transportation to first, and five hits were secured off his de- livery, two of which were made by Summers. Hazen laced out the leather for a two-bagger at a time when it counted, and all of the boys did good work with the willow, though it was difficult to land safe. Summers was pretty nearly the whole thing on the infield. He made two of the prettiest catches ever seen on a ball field, both after long runs, one being with the left hand, Lee LeGore stole five hases, going from third base to the plate on one occasion when the pitcher had the ball in his hand. One of the features of the game was the work of “Old Hoss” Mogan. Jack quit regu- lar playing as a professional sev- eral years ago, but he still under- stands the fine points of the game. His eyesight has become poor of late years, and he missed hitting the ball with several mighty swings the first two times up. But when he came to the plate the last inning, there was blood in the old man’s eye. ‘Williamson heaved several over that Jack didn’t take a liking to, but he finally got to first base, and then he did things to the youngsters from St, Paul. He stole second on the first ball pitched, sliding into the bag on his manly bosom in a manner that provoked wild applause, With the next swing of the p:tcher’s arm he sailed for third, and made it by another graceful head-first dive. He was think- ing seriously of stealing home (he acquired the habit working for a logging company on the Indian reservagtion) when a heave from the pitcher nearly cut short his career. He scored later, however, and was duly wel- comed. There was a fair-sized crowd out, despite the threatening’ weather, and the game was such as to deserve the patronage of the fans. Dean-McRea. At the Baptist parsonage Sun- day evening at 9:30 occurred the marriage of Miss Emma Dean of this city to George McRea of Jamestown, N, D, The happy couple left this morning at 7:15 for Eagle Bend and other places, and will be at home after July 15 at Jamestown, N, D. A host of friends join in wishing them a long, happy life. Mr, and' Mrs. Tom Smart en- tertained with a sumptious 38 o’clock dinner Sundayin honor of the couple. Covers were laid f)r twenty-two guests. OFFICERS HOLD TWO MEETINGS School District Officials Near Blackduck and Solway Confer With Supt. Regan. County Superintendent J. J.

Jacksons and Bemidji to Pull Off Second Game This Evening. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. French were the victims ofa smooth couple last night, as the result of which Mrs. French is oat per- sonall property to the value of some $20. Yesterday evening a man and woman applied for lodging at the French residence and were given a room. During the night the couple departed from the bouse, taking with them a sack coat, valued at about $15 and a silk muffler worth g3, Mr. French did not discoyer the loss until this morning, when he notitied the police, who ascer- tained , that the parties who stopped at the French home had left on the east-bound passenger train last night, having pur. chased a ticket for Menahga. Telephonic communication was at once had with Cass Lake and Menahga, and it is likely that the parties will be apprehended. Excursion to Red Lake. Oa July fourth the Minneapo- lis, Red Lake & Manitoba Rail- way company will run two trains to Redby, there to connect with the steamboat which makes regu- lar trips to the agency. The trains will leave Bemidiji 7:15 a. m. and 1:20 p. m., arriving at Redby 9:30 a. m.and 3:45 p. m. They leave the agency at 9:45 a. m, and 8:30 p. m, Manager Marson has fixed the time card that all may take ad- vantage of it. People who desire to visit the agency will be given an opportunity and the up coun- try people will be given an oppor- The second game between the Jacksons and the Bemidji team will be called this evening at 6:30 sharp, As many people are working all day until 6 in the eve- ning, it was thought best by the management to call the game right after supper, at6:30. This will give everyone an opportunity to see the contest. Every effort is being made to- day to get Holstein, Hallet and Bungo here for the game. Tele- phone communication has been had with the players, who are at Akeley, and it is likely that they will be in the game this evening. Walters, a southpaw, will pitch for the St. Paul team, and “Red”’ Hazen will officiate on the slab for Bemidji. If Holstein fails to arrive, “Dad” Lewis will catch for Bemidji. Robinson will be behind the willow for the Jack- sons. There has been a rumor circu- lated to the effect that an injunc- tion has been issued. forbidding the playing of games on the new grounds. This is not correct. An application has been made whereby the local management is called to show cause why an injunction should not be issued, but this proceeding will not in any manner interfere with the game to be played this evening, tomorrow and on the Fourth.

Y, July 2—At the hearing in the contest over the will of the late James A. Bailey, the showman, to have a commission ap- pointed to determine the mental con- dition of the testator at the time the will was executed in 1885, Surrogate Silkman announced that he would not g0 on with the case. He said. that after the objections to the will had been filed one of the attorneys in the case tried to retain Judge Silkman’s law partner to serve as counsel in Judge Silkman’s court in connection with the will contest. The counsel for the contestants will now ask for a temporary administrator to handle the estate pending the present hear- ing.

Kansas City, July 2.—Every saloon in Kansas City, Kan., is closed tightly and at the clubhouses of the Elks and Eagles no liquor is being sold. As- sistant Attorney General Trickett's threat to destroy the buildings used as joints has proven effective. Dur- Ing the night the bar fixtures and stocks of liquor were removed from many places to the Missouri side. A dozen saloons in the suburbs of Ar- mourdale, Argentine and Rosedale still remain open, but they may event- ually be closed. These latter were op- erated by a Missouri brewing com- pany now in the hands of a receiver and Attorney General Trickett wished to feel his ground before proceeding against them. The fixtures from one saloon owned by this company has been destroyed by the sheriff, how- ever, notwithstanding threats of the owner to secure a restraining order from the federal court. IS CLOSED.
