} THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONE VOLUME {. NUMBER 119 BEMIDJ1, MINNESOTA, THURSDAY EVENING, SEPTEMBER 6, 1906. IRON ORE DISCOVERED IN CITY LIMITS OF BEMIDJI Seemingly Genuine Article Found in Excavation for Northland Pro- duce Company’s Sterage House Across the Great Northern Tracks.—Analy What has every appecarance of being genuine iron ore has veen | found in Bemid The discovery s made a few! days ago by workmen employed ! in excavuting for the concrete} foundation for the big Northland | Produce cowpany warehouseg across the Great Northern tracks | and although it attracted little notice at first, as the real mean- ing of the discovery, should the tind prove really t> be iron, has dawned upon those who knew of it, the excitement has grown steadily. Contractor George Kreatz who is building the storage plant, is soimpressed that he has taken a sample of the supposed ore to Minneapolis and will have an analysis made. Should his belief and the velief of everyone who has examined the ore prove true, it means but one thing;; that Beltrami county is in the iron ore ditsrict, and that other discoveries will be made in the sis Being Made. course of time, The interest is especially in- creased in view of the recent discoveries at Kelliher, where test wells have been sunk and iron ore found in several places. The ore found in Bemidji is on land owned by the Northland Produce c¢)mpany and Jo'm Lunn, of that firm, has a number of fine samples at his oftice. The “‘mine” is located in the rear of the big building and consists of a vein half a foot deep running through a sand bank six feet or more below the surface and ex- tending as far as the excavation on both sides, how much farther, of course, cannot now be known. In the same vein with the supposed iron ore are deposits of a goldish tinted, glittering, stuff, which has the appearance of being gold, but which is prob- ably mica, or “fool’s gold.” To be certain, however, Mr. Kreatz took along a sample of the “gold” also, and will have it analyzed. ————————————— e e Fine Play to Fine Audience. Porter J. White’s “Faust” with Miss Olga Verne as Marguerite and an exceptionally strong company, appeared here before a packed house at the Standard theatre last evening and gave Pekin one of the finest theatrical productions ever seen in this city. Frederick J, Wilson is a tinished actor and truly merited | fellows and not one weighed less | the generous applause whichl was given him throughout the evening. KFrom an electrical| standpoint last night’s enter- tainment was the tinest ever seen in the city and scenically speaking it hustled the best we have ever hed. Last night was ths company’s second visit to our city and they have a right to| feel proud of the warm reception which they received at the hands of our theatre-goers.

NG OBJECTION MADE| MOGRISH AUTHORITIES WILL AL- LOW EXTRADITION OF PAUL 0. STENSLAND. T0 BE RETURNED ON OCEAN LINER - NO AMERICAN WARSHIP IN EU- . ROPEAN WATERS AT THE PRESENT TIME. ‘Washington, Sept. 6.—The Moorish authorities will interpose no objection to the removal to America of Paul O. Stensland, president of the Milwaukee Avenue State bank of Chicago. A dis- patch to this effect has been received at the state department from Minister Gummere, at Tangier. The dispatch \added that Stensland is a prisoner in 'the American legation there. As to the means of retirning Stens- land to this country the state and navy officials were in consultation during the day, at which it was indi- ‘cated that it would not be easy to find a suitable warship within a reasonable time on which to bring Stensland back. There are now no American warships in the Mediterranean or Eu- ropean waters. So the state depart- ment officials are inclined to think that a merchant ship after all might serve and their plan is to have one of the regular Mediterranean liners cross over from Gibraltar to Tangier and take Stensland aboard there, not stopping afterward at any European ‘port, thus avoiding any embarrassing issues with foreign officials as to ex- tradition. It is suggested, however, that upon arrival in New York Stens- iand, through his attorneys, may ap- ply for a habeas corpus on the claim that his arrest was illegal and it is admitted that the question is a new one, the case being without a prece- dent. SEHE WOMAN CHOKED TO DEATH. Husband Is Arrested on Suspicion of Murder. Springfield, 0., Sept. 6.—The body of a woman, clad only in stockings and chemise, was found on the harks |of Snyder Park lake. Nearby there | was a man’s cap. There were evi- dences of a struggle and it is believed that the woman was choked to death. i The body was identified as that of ' Mrs. Elmer Filmore. The identifica- tion was made by the woman’s hus- ,band. He has been placed under ar- | rest and the police are searching for Paul Jones. Fiimore, it is alleged, trailed his wife and Jones to the park. Later lmore came to police headquarters, ripping with water, claiming Jones nd Mrs. Filmore had pushed him into the lake. He said that they held I s 1 head under water and tried to drown l!llm. The husband protests his inno cence of any connection with the death of his wife. 25: DISCOUNT .ON SHIRTS!.

Milwaukee, Sept. 6.—The latest re- turns from Tuesday’s primary. elec- tions throughout Wisconsin, 'though far from being complete, indicate that Governor James O.

Phtiladelphia, Sept. 6.—Charged with having defrauded the depositors of the Real Estate Trust company of this city out of many millions of dollars Adolph Segal, promoter of many en- terprises; Willlam F. rth, the treas- urer of the trust compjdny, and Mar- shall 8. Collingwood, the assistant treasurer, have been arrested at the instance of District Attorney Bell, who has spent nearly a week in investigat. ing the affairs of the wrecked institu- tion. Segal was held in $25,000 bail and the two trust company officers in $10,000 each. Bonds were furnished and the men released. This turn in the affairs of the com- pany is only one of the many sensa- tions expected to develop in connec- tlon with the failure, which, it is esti mated, will exceed $10,000,000 before the receiver finishes his investigation, The affidavits accompanying the warrants for Segal, North and Col- lingwood were sworn to by Walter C. Browning, a depositor and creditor of the Real Estate Trust company. They aver that Segal, North and Colling- wood, with Frank K. Hipple, the pres- 1dent of the company, who committed sulcide, and with other unknown per- sons defrauded the company vut of Many Millions of Dollars and that they fraudulently applied the money to their own use. It is further charged that Segal was an abettor to the embezzlement of the many mil- lions of dollars and that North com- mitted perjury in knowingly having furnished to the commissioner of bank- ing of Pennsylvania false reports of the value of the company’s assets, resources and labilities. Collingwood and North are.also accused of having received money from- depositors’ after they knew the company was insolvent. Adolph Segal, who is looked upon as the principal in the failure of the institution, had nothing to say after his arrest. He contented himself by referring all persons. to his attorneys. Segal is a promoter of many enter- prises In this city and throughout the state of Pennsylvania. To carry on his_operations he borrowed, Receiver Earle says, more than $5,000,000, for which he gave to President Hipple, the only man in the bank he dealt with, securities that were insufficient. It was at first believed that Hipple did not benefit by his dealings with Segal, but later developments showed that he was deep in the schemes of Segal and a partner in some of his com- panies, - WILL REWED SECOND WIFE. Chicago Bigamist to Secure Divorce From First. Chicago, Sept. 6.—Professor Charles H. Frye, scholar, lawyer and teacher, has made a full confession in the Cook county jail of the crime of big- amy committed twenty-two years ago and declared that he would do every- thing in his power to right the wrongs of the unhappy women who have looked upon him as their husband.

CHEERING CROWD TO GIVE WELCOME TO PENDERGAST Non-Partisan Demonstration by Democrats and Republicans This : Evening at the 7:50 Great Northern Passenger Train for Johnson’s *‘Running Mate.” Bemidji will turn out en masse this evening to welcome Judge L. G. Pendergast, who was honored by the democratic party of Minnesota with the nomination for lieutenant governor. Arrangements have been per- fected whereby the Bemidji band will play on the street in front of the city hall at 7p. m., and at 7:30 the parade will move to the Great Northern depot, political character, but a spon- taneous mark of respect for a fellow citizen who. has been honored by his party. It is urged that every citizen, if possible, join in the procession that will meet Mr. Pendergast. A rig has been provided to bring him from the train and he will be forced to tell how it happened. Judge Pendergast was coming home yesterday and was peace- {ully reclining in the car when the train reached Hagle Bend. At that place he was taken' from the train by a crowd of 100 en- thusiastic friends and prevailed upn to remain with them over night. He formerly lived at Eigle Bend, and his host of ac- quaintances down there insisted that he tarry with them and re- ceive expressions of their ap- proval, It is seldom that so important a nomination is bestowed upon one residing in a city the size of Bemidji, and it is reques‘ed that as many as can turn out and meake the welcome home a big success: L.
