ADDITIONAL LOCAL MATTER NO TRAGE OF GRANDMA CHASE HAS BEEN FOUND The People of Yola Make Diligent Search for the Missing Old Lady. Yola, July 14.—(Special to the Pioneer.)—Despite diligent search which has been made in the woods for miles around her claim, no trace has yet been found of Mrs. Emily Chase, known as ‘“‘grandma’”Chase, whose strange disappearance from her home since June 27th has caused a decided sensation in this com- munity. On Friday search was made by a party which was composed of every settler in the vicinity of Mrs.Chase’s cabin including E. M. Chase, son of the missing woman. Every foot of ground for many rods in each direction from the cabin was thor- oughly gone over and the brush beaten, but there was absolutely no clue whatever to aid the searchers in finding Mrs. Chase. The suspicion that there has been foul play in connection with Mrs. Chase’s disappearance is gaining ground, and there are many remarks directed towards E. M. Chase, son of Mrs. Chase. and Chase’s wife. Neighbors say that the old woman (she was over 80 years of age) was very shamefully misused by both Chase and his wife, and that she complained often of the harsh treat- ment accorded her, According to those who should be well acquainted with Mrs. Chase and her condition, the elder Mrs. Chase was never fully supplied with good food and was compelled to get her own wood and water, and was in many other ways neglected. Many of the neighbors are out- spoken in their belief that the son and his wife have been instrumental in getting the old lady out of the way. However this may be, neither exhibit much interest in the absence of the frail old lady. Theories as to the manner in which Mrs. Chase disappeared vary materially. Some are of the opinion that she wandered from her shack in an attempt to get out of the country and has perished in the woods, and that her dead body will be found later; and others express the belief that the son and daughter know where the old woman can be found and that they are purposely keeping her whereabouts from the public. The authorities at Park Rapids have been notified of the facts and undoubtedly a rigid investigation of the affair will be made before the end of the week if Mrs. Chase does not reappear or her dead body is not recovered. Hinders Firemen in Their Work. The condition of the ground sur- rounding the entrance to the city hall building where the fire appar- atus is stored is such that the fire- men are complaining of the lack of space in which to handle the ap- paratus in case of fire. The street was taken down and a lot of earth removed leaving a soft surface of sand that is almost im- pasasble; in addition to which the street has been considerably usurped by the building material for the Schroeder & Schwandt new brick block. It is understood that the firemen will complain this evening to the council, asking that the condition be improved in some way. ATTORNEY RICHARDSON HAS BEEN VINDICATED The Supreme Court Reverses ltself as Result of the Attorney’ Logical Reasoning. The St. Paul Dispatch says of the recent ruling of the supreme court, wherein Harris Richardson, the St. Paul attorney who is a member of the Bemidji Townsite company(own- ers of the townsite of Bemidji), is practically sustained in his conten- tion in a case which attracted. con- siderable attention because of the caustic references which Mr. Richard- son made regarding the members of the court: ““Harris Richardson, the wellknown St. Paul attorney, won a signal vic- tory teday when the supreme court reversed itself on a former decision covering the suit of J. F. Kelly and Norman Fetter as trustees repond- ents vs. The Liverpool & London Globe Insurance company, appell” ants. This time it affirms the find- ings of the lower court. Justices Lewis and Elliott, however, refuse to recant. “The case was one involving the collection of a $1,500 policy growing| out of a fire loss and on the first ap- peal the findings of the lower court which were in favor of the plaintiff were reversed. “The contention made was that the parties to whom the policy had been made had violated the rules in failing to inform the company of other policies taken out and which covered the some property. “Mr. Richardson’s connection with the case as attorney for the plaintiffs received its greatest public- ity, from what was considered a de- cided roast for the supreme court when an application for re-argument was made by him. His fling at the court by some was held to have dan- gerously approached contempt, but this, inan apology made by Mr, Richardson, was denied. His vic- tory now is considered all the more complete. “All the court has to say, in re- versing itself is that evidence consid- ered on re-argument is held to sus- tain the findings of the trial court.” FATHER IS LOOKING FOR M. & 1. SURFAGING ROADBED WITH GRAVEL .| Preparing for Fast Trains When the Extenson Is Completed to the Boundary. The M. & I railway is pushing the work of surfacing its roadbed at points where the officials have deemed it necessary to better the present conditions, and it is safe to say that when the extension of the road from Big Falls to International Falls is completed, the road south from Big Falls to Brainerd -will be in excellent condition for the running of trains at a high rate of speed. Under direction of Harry Mills;| roadmaster for the M. & I, a gravel train has been operating on the work of surfacing the roadbed from Walker to Bemidji. The train has taken gravel at pit “67,” neas Kabe- kona, sixty-seven miles north from Brainerd. This train has already surfaced all but five miles of the roadbed south from Bemidji to Walker, and it is expected that the remainder of the road will be com- pleted to Bemidji inside the next two weeks. The train was used for suriactng north of Blackduck, early in the spring, and when the work is com- HIS SON WHO RAN AWAY M. W. Neville of Decatur, Alabama, Telegraphs Pawnee Bill Concerning His Son William. A wayward son, carried away by the gilt and glamour of Pawnee Bill’s Wild West show, was traced to this city on Saturday, from his home in Decatur, Alabama, when Major Lillie (Pawnee Bill) received the following telegram: “Decatur, Ala., via Aberdeen, S. D.—Eddie Lynn, care Pawnee Bill Wild West show: I am informed that my 15-year-old son is with your show, under an assumed name. His correct name is William Vinkley Neville. Answer if he is with you or not. (Signed) M. W. Neville.” Major Lillie called his private detective and had every employe of the big show questioned as' to the names of the men and boys, but no clue to anyone by the name of “William Vinkley Neville” could be found. In speaking of the matter, Major Lillie said: “I have many experiences of this kind. Many young fellows want to join our show, simply for the ex- citement there is in it, and use all kinds of expedients to get on the roll. I have been compelled to let it be understood that I accept no one for employment about the show against whom there is the least bit of complaint or restraint. Regard- ing this Neville matter, it is possible that the boy may have been with us, but if he was, he has got away to some other place.” Hurt by Falling Barn. Word comes from Buzzle township that John Malley and John Stohle, farmers in that township, were quite badly injured, last week, while work- ing on a barn at Mr. Malley’s place. The two men were raising Mr. Malley’s barn, and when they knocked out some props under the building it fell, catching both under- neath, Mr. Malley escaped with several bad bruises, but Mr. Stohl was so badly injured that he has been con- fined to his bed since the accident. His condition is not considered se- rious, however, and he will be able to be about his work again in the near future.

New Haven Road Controls the Boston and Malne. New Haven, Conn., July 16.—On high railroad authority it can be stated that the holdings of the New York, New Haven and Hartford Railroad company in the Boston and Maine, amounting to approximately 120,000 shares, now represent an absolutely completed transaction. The shares, it. 1s understood, are held by trustees or other. representatives of the New Haven company and so far as voting power exists is vested in those repre- sentatives, who will draw the Boston and Maine dividends. Stock ofthe New York, New Haven and Hartford company, share for share and to the amount-of $12,000,000, has been issued to the former Boston and Maine stock holders. The whole of the 120,000 shares of Boston and Malne stock wag acquired previous to the passage of the anti-merger law in Massachusetts and none has been acquired since. Talks with railroad officials here In- dicate thelr conviction that the Massa- chusetts anti-merger law Is unconsti- tuttonal on several grounds, notably its Interference with the rights of Bos- ton and Maine shareholders in other states than Massachusetts and also its bearings upon actual or possible legislation in New Hampshire, where the Boston and Maine is incorporated, as well as ln the former state.

The sentence of the brickmen is the maximum.for the of- fense to which they pleaded guilty, which included only one section of the Valentine law, the penalty for vio- lation of which is a fine of $50 to $1,000 without imprisonment. Minimum imprisonment sentence was glven the lumbermen and bridge- men. Executions of sentence were suspended for ten days. ‘Anapplca- tlon will be made to the circuit court for suspension of the sentences.

Topeka, Kan., July 15.—Injunction sults were filed in the county distrigt court here by Attorney General F, 8. Jackson against sixty-two forelgn fire Insurance. companies charging them with alleged violation™of the state antl-trust laws.” The suits are based on information furnighed by Charles H. Barnes, superintendent of f{nsur ance’ and seek to prevent the com: panies from using the Eldridge rating sheet in writing Kansas insurance The sults involve every fire insur ance company within the state. In his charges in the afidavit filed by the attorney general Mr. Barnes says: “There is in existence In the state of Kansas an unlawful arrangement trust and combination in restraint of the business of fire insurance within the state of Kansas. The above named defendants are members of and par ticipants in such unlawful agreement trust and combination; that by means of such unlawful arrangement, trusi and combination the cost and rate of insurance to the citizens of Kansas It arbitrarily fixed at high and extor tionate flgures by ome Charles N Eldridge of - Shawnee county, Kan, who {8 & general agent or other gen eral functionary of some character, who, by common consent of the above named defendants and by certain un- lawful arrangements, combination and agreement between them 1s au- thorized and permitted by the above named defendants to fix the cost and raté of fire insurance.” Mr. Barnes alleges that competition 1s almost totally abolished and the rates and cost of insurance fixed so high that as to be prohibitive. This {s the same bureau which ‘Webb McNall put out of business while he was: superintendent of insur- ance. - It was then known as the Clark. son bureau.

Impeachment and rebuttal DEFENSE RESTS CASE MANY WITNESSES TESTIFY Questioned Briefly for Purpose of Con- tradicting Evidence Introduced by ; Defense—Session Enlivened by Nu- merous Objections of Counsel. Boise, Ida., July 15.—Contradiction, became the order of the day whem shortly after the opening of court counsel for the defense of Willlam D. Haywood rested their case and the state com- menced the second innings. The rebuttal brought out a flock of witnesses whose evidence, short and snappy, kept the courtroom ’ well keyed up. J. H, Hawley conducted the examjnation for the state and E. F. Richardson again took the lead as ‘ross-examiner. Hawley, vigorous and aggressive; Richardson, quick and at times showing irritation, together pro- vided a number of interesting pas- sages. Good humor was mingled with grave insinuations and short passages between counsel promptly suppressed by the court. Objection after objection was poured into the record by counsel for the de- fense. Clarence Darrow assisted Rich: ardson in keeping Interest stirred to the point of excited anticipation and the morning session was generally lvely. Defense Causes Surprise. ‘With the opening of court Attorney Richardson sprung a decided sensation by announcing that the defense rest- /| ed. It had been understood that sev: eral more witnesses would be put on the stand, but apparently the defense had changed its plans over night. The state at once opened its case in re- buttal, John C. Rice being recalled to the stand. He testified that in No- vember, 1905, Orchard did not wear a moustache, This was in contradiction of one of the witnesses for the de- fense, who swore he heard Orchard make threats against Steunenberg, describing Orchard as a man wlth a large moustache. The next witness was Dan Galney of Walla Walla, Galney lost both his feet In the Independence depot explo- slon. He lived in the Coeur d’Alenes in 1898 and 1399 and roomed a part of the time with Orchard. Gainey said that Dominick Flynn, who testified he wea playlng poker with Orchard on April 19, 1899, the day of the Bunker Hill explosion, had told him in a con- versation that he had not seen Or- chard since February, 1899. B, E, Grimshaw of Deadwood, S..D., was Introduced by the state to iden- tity a prison record showing that in 1880 John M. O’Nelll, at present and for many years past editor of the Min. ers’ Magazine, was in the Dakota pen- itentiary. The defense objected on the ground that this was not proper rebuttal or impeachment; that Wit- ness - O'Nelll's attention not being called to the matter when'he was on the stand. To allow the citation of authorities the witness was temporar- ily withdrawn. Rallroad Men Testify. In contradiction of the old soldier, John D). Ellott, who said he heard Orchard make threats against Gov- ernor Steunenberg while on a train, the state introduced several rallway officials who produced records show- ing that the tralns on which Elliott sald he and Orchard traveled did not make the connections which Elliott had desoribed as a part of the jour- ney, Elllott testified for the defense that he traveled from Welser, Ida., to Bolse about Nov. 28 or 29, 1906. The state called J. P. Stephenson, a hotel olerk of Salt Lake City, to testify that Orchard arrived at the Hotel Cul- len on Nov. 25, 1905, and remained there three weeks, When asked to produce records the witness said he oould only find Orchard’s name en- tered in the books on Nov. 25. It was the man’s custom to pay for his room nightly in advance. J. H. Moser, proprietor of the Kettle Block roominghouse in Denver, testi- fled that Harry Orchard, under the name of Dempsey, stopped with him for two weeks late in July or August of 1904. Dr. McGee, a witness for the defense, te-tlfled several weeks ago that he saw Orchard in the Coem' Q'Alenes at this time, 8ummoned by a Pinkerton, On cross-examination he said he kept no record of guests and did not remember the names of any other transiont guests in the summer. of 04, He was requested to come to olse by a Plnkerton detective. Interest in- the rebuttal case was materially quickened by the calling of August Pawson of Wallace, Ida., one of the owners of the Hercules mine, in which Orchard once held a one- sixteenth interest. There was a long argument between counsel as to the witness’ ability to.tell when Orchard oeased to exercise any conmtrol of the mine. Paulson sald he oould not re- member the exact dates, but that as parly as the spring of 1898 Orchard bad pothing further to do with the property, his interest being succeeded by Dan Cardoner, now a wealthy man from the production of the mine. Phe defense clalms that Orchard had a personal motive against Steun- enberg hecause of the loss of this property when he was driven out of the ocountry as a part of the 1898 troubles, 'The state claime Orchard sold out his Interest a year or wo be- fore the trouble started.
