DOINGS OF INTEREST T0 NORTHOME PEOPLE Backus & Brooks Building Spur to Island Lake---*‘Sailor Pete” Will Build Road. Northome, June 15.—(Special to Pioneer.)—The Backus-Brooks Lum- ber company will build a spur track from a point on the M. & L railway, about a mile south of this village, to Island lake, for the purpose of bring- ing their logs from the lake to North- ome. A crew of surveyors has com- pleted the surveying of the route for the spur and laid out the line which will be graded at once and the track laid within the next two weeks. The length of the spur will be three miles. The Backus-Brooks people have several million feet of logs that were dumped on the ice in Island lake, last winter, which they_will hoist on cars and haul to the main line of the M. & 1. for transpoifation to the mills at Minne- apolis. The village council has determined to give to the settlers living in the the vicinity of Northome a better road into the village, and with that end in view has let a contract to J. P. Johnson to finish the road which was commenced but not com- pleted, to the county road three miles south. The road was built about two miles out, but the con- necting distance was almost impas- sable. With the completion of the mile of road for which Mr. Johnson has the contract, there will be a good highway to Northome from a point some fifteen miles distant, af- fording gom roads for the settlers in that vicinity. Matt Jones, local constable, yes- terday arrested a young fellow house of a- homesteader living be- tween Bridgie and Northome, and taken a suit of clothes and other valuable articles. The thief was given a hearing today before Jus- tice Engelking. Judge Spooner to Bagley. Judge Spooner went to Bagley on this afternoon’s train and held a special term of court at the Clear- water county court house, thereby enabling several of the residents of that county to become citizens - of Uncle Sam’s domain, in order that they ma;' make final proof on their homesteads. The judge will preside at a term of court to be held at Park Rapids next week beginning Tuesday.

DISSOLUTION THE PENALTY Police and Troops in Possession of the Entrance to Parliament Building Pending Debate and Action on the Question Raised. St. Petersburg, June 15.—Premier Stolypin demanded that the lower house of parliament exclude from the house all the members of the Social Democratic faction, numbering fifty- five, and sancticn the arrest.of sixteen of their leaders on the charge of enter- ing into a copspiracy to overthrow the government and establish a demo- cratic republic. Continuing, the pre- mier announced that unless the house immediately yields rarliament would be dissolved. . . The press and public galleries were cleared, the police and troops took possession of the enirance to the par- liament building and the house went into secret session and debated the question raised by the premier. It is considered almost certain that his de- mands will be rejected. The lower house of parliament even- tually declared a recess without tak- ing a vote on the government’s de- mand. There are still forty speakers awaiting a hearing. The streets out- side the Tauride palace are filled with members of the secret police, who, it is presumed, have orders to arrest the Social Democratic members of the house when they emerge. The courtyards of the houses in the vicinity of the palace are filled with Cossacks, infantry and mounted po- Tice. . When the session of the lower house ‘was resumed the Constitutional Demo- crats, Poles and members of the Group of Toil decided to refer the govern- ment’s demand for exclusion of the Social Democrats to a committee, which was a virtual rejection of the premier’s ultimatuni. SECOND PEACE CONFERENCE Practically All the Delegates Now at The Hague. The Hagiie, June 15.—This city sud- denly blossomed out with flags during the morning, every civilized country on the globe hoisting its standard over the hotels and legations clustered about the two principal squares, while the hotels facing the sea at Shevenin- gen, with their multi-colored hanners snapping in a stiff breeze, formed & stirring picture. It was like a vast camp of the nations of the world. The weather could not have been finer— cool, with bright sunshine. Practically all the belated delega- tiong arrived during the day. The English, twenty-five strong, headed by Sir Edward Frye, judge of the chancery division of the British high court of justice and member of the permanent court of arbitration at The Hague, reached The Hague early by way of Hook of Holland; Joseph H.

POSTAL, RECORDS. IN COURT ‘Dne !-Iundred Dollars Sent From Den- ver to San Francisco at the Time Orchard Was in the Latter City At- tempting to Kill Fred Bradley. Boise, Ida., June 15.—The prosecu- tion in the Steunenberg murder case is devoting itself to further corrobora- tion of the testimony of Orchard rela- tive to the two attempts, one with strychnine and the other with dyna- mite, on the life of Fred Bradley of San Francisco and an endeavor to directly comnect Pet®one with the operations of Orchard. ) It was again shown that Orchard hung around the Bradley home, en- gaged a room in the vicinity and met tlie servants of the Bradley household. He was seen moving his effects the night before the explosion and he was traced to the house again after the explosion occurred. By Then tle state, Ly the record of the United States postoffices at San Fran- cisco and Denver, traced a registered letter from “J. Wolff” at 1725 Stout street, Defiver, which was the address of Pettibone’s store, to J. Dempsey at San Francisco, sent in’August, 1904, ‘when Orchard was there to kill Brad- ley. Dempsey was the alias used by Orchard in San Trancisco. Orchard swore this letter contained $100. The defense did but little cross-examina- tion and contented itself with a gen- eral objection to all the testimony oftered. Steve Adams was produced in court during’ the afternoon accompanied by the sheriff and was identified by J. H. Mclntyre, a special oficer of the Southern Pacific railroad, who arrest- ed him at Ogden, Utah, in June, 1903. LONGSHOREMEN ARE BEATEN Pathetic Scene When Leader Acknowl- edges Defeat. New York, June 15—There was a pathetic scene at the meeting of the longshoremen, whose strike for In- creased pay has been declared off. Patrick Connors, leader of the strikers, a big man who had fought determined- 1y for the men, broke down and wept' when compelled to make the acknowl- edgment that the men were beaten. There was a moment’s silence and then the hall rang with cheers for the leader, while many of the men, who had faced privation in an effort to win their demands, hurried to the plat- form, shock Connors by the hand and assured him that he had made a good fight and 4id the best he could. More than 12,000 of .the original 20,000 strikers who remained firm will return to work at once. It is believed all of the men will secure their old places, but they must return for the same pay they received when they went on sirike—30 cents an hour. They had demanded an increase of 10 cents. The strike has lasted nearly six weeks and was a great financial loss to the steamship companies and to the workers. The loss in wages to the longshorenien has been close to $1,- 000,000. 2 ROCBED WOMAN GOF $61,0600 Scuth Carolina Man Admits Crine After His Arrest.

STATE OF WAR EXISTS Nicaragua Assisting the Rebel- - lion in Salvador. Washington, June 15—What is practically an actual declaration of war between Nicaragua and Salvador was contained in the reply of Pres- ident Zelaya to an inquiry from Wash- ington as to his connection with the recent attack and capture of Acajutla. The answer came to the state depart- ment in the shape of the following cablegram from American Consul General Olivares at Managua, the Nic- araguan capital: “I am officially informed that in ac- cordance with the Central American union President Zelaya has dispatched munitions of war and troops in aid pr General Alfara, who is the popular unionist candidate for the presidency of Salvador.
