Music by the Band Greetings To All Skating at the R.ink To- morrow Evening Northome ‘‘Walloped” Blackduck. Northome, Minn.,, Sept. 9.— (Special to Pioneer.)—The local baseball team, which has made an enviable record for itself this season by cleaning up everything in its class that it has went up against, again demonstrated its superiority | over all comers by walloping the Blackduck aggregation of ball tossers on the local diamond Sunday after- noon by the overwhelming score of 29 to 3. The visiting team put up a very ragged exhibition of ball and the| contest was simply a walk-away for| the locals. Scribner, the local slab artist, again showed his efficiency in the box, allowing the visitors but three hits and striking out twelve men. The local team has been playing fast ball all season and still has its first game to loose.

The last issue of the Cass Lake Times has the following account of the wedding of Frank Deebach, of Cass Lake, who was at one time last winter in the emyloy of the Pioneer: “Last Wednesday occurred the wedding of Frank Deebach, foreman in the Times office, to Miss Pearl Markee, both of this village. The marriage ceremony was performed at Bemidji, where the parties went for a brief honeymoon, returning on Thursday to attend to duties. This is the third marriage that the Times office has enjoyed since its estab- lishment, which provokes us to remark that if you want to get “spliced” enlist in the service of the Times.” The editor of the Pioneer can vouch as to the desirability of the Times office as a place where em- ployes can get “spliced,” as we were foreman of the Times at the time we were “spliced,” and Judge Ives acted as a sort of master of cere- monies of that momentous event in our career.

Rowe McCamus, the bright young editor of the Brookston Herald took occasion in the last issue of his splendid little paper to assure the residents of Brookston that he was not “knocking” his town or anything that pertained to the welfare of Brookston or her citizens. Anyone with a grain of sense who has read the Herald since Rowe established the publication know that few people outside the corporate limits of Brookston would have been aware of the fact that Brookston was on the map had it not been for the very generous “boosting" of the Herald. Around the Lake. Mr. Chase of the Bemidji Cash Shoe Store, is ill at his home at the Bay. Mr. and Mrs. Charles Cooley of Grand Forks arrived yesterday.

Fish, the wife of a wealthy retired broker, was found murdered in her home at Evanston, Ill, early in he day. Her husband, with his throat cut, was found unconscious on the floor of the bedroom in which the body of Mrs. Fish was lying. It is the opin- lon of the police that Fish murdered his wife and then attempted to com- it suicide. He was hurried to a hospital, but has not yet recovered consciousness and it is doubtful if he recovers sufficiently to make a state- ment. The cause of the tragedy is un- known. Mr. and Mrs. Fish were heard by their neighbors in a violent alter- cation late at night and it is believed that Fish arose early in the day and, after discharging a shotgun into his wife’s head, hacked her in a horrible fashion with a butcher’s cleaver. A servant girl who was in the house declared that she heard the report of a shotgun and the cleaver with which Mrs. Fish was mangled was found 1y- ing beside the bed. Fish had been for twenty years as- sociated with a prominent commis- slon house which recently retired from business. SEVERAL SERIOUSLY ILL. Threshing Crew of Twenty Poisoned by Eating Chicken. Manson, Ia., Sept. 9.—Twenty mem- bers of u wheat threshing crew north of Manson were poisoned by eating chicken sandwiches.

Soon all were sick and physi- clans were brought from two towns. Ptomaine had developed in the chicken. : Victim of Auto Accident.

BOAR HUNT WITH JAVELINS Belng Planned for President Roose: velt in Texa Houston, Tex., Sept. 9.—Reports have reached here from Sen Antonio that a wild boar hunt with javelins for weapons instead of rifles is being planned for President Roosevelt. An experimental hunt with javelins will shortly be made in the district south of San Antonio. Several of President Roosevelt’s acquaintances are au- thority for the statement that if the sport proves good the president has promised to join in a hunt during his coming Southern and Western tour, Russian Battleship Launched. 8t.

B e CIVIL WAR IMMINENT Rival Sultans of Morocco Wil Settle Right to Throne. ARMIES LEVIED IN HASTE [ Anclent City of Rabat, on the Atlantic Coast, Promises to Be the Scene of the First Engagement in the Strug. gle for Supremacy. Tangler, Morocco, Sept. 9.—Events in Morozco are marching on with great rapidity. Both the sultans, Abdel Aziz and Mulai Hafig, are reported to be leaving the rival capitals, Fez and Morocco City, at the head of armies which had been levied in hot haste and which may decide within a fort- night the destiny.of Morocco’s mon- archy. The immediate objective of these forces is the auncient city of Ra- bat, on the Atlantic seaboard, the prior possession of which great center of Western Islam’s national life prob- ably would have an important if not a declsive bearing upon the struggle for supremacy. Half way between Fez and Morocco City the city of Rabat is the natural frontier port, dividing Northern and Southern Morocco, and there the dramatic interest of the sit- uation for the moment culminates. Both sultans are sons of the same father and they are daily issuing pas- sionate appeals to the patriotism and religious enthusiasm of the nation, each denouncing his rival as being worse than an infidel and a traitor to Islam, In the meanwhile the powers have not yet decided whether to recognize Mulai Hafig, his correct name, as sul- tan of the South, seemingly awaiting results of the appeal to the arbitra- ment of civil war. The general impression here, based upon telegrams from London and Paris, {8 that France and Spain have resolved upon the immediate occupa- tion of all Which has caused universal consterna- tion, for it is feared by those who best know the character of the Moors that any extension of the intervention of France and Spain will infallibly provoke further massacres of Chris- tians and Jews in the various towns on the coast. In other words, a sit- uation has developed which never was contemplated at the time of the Alge- ciras convention and it appears that serious events will follow. GERMANY WILL CONSENT. Makes Reservations Regarding Polic- ing of Morocco. Berlin, Sept. 9.—Germany’s reply to France's circular note to the signa- tories of the Algeciras convention will not be drawn up for several days. It | is understood in the most infiuential quarters that Germany will not give a negative reply to the suggestion that the international Morocean police he temporarily constituted from purely French and Spanish clements. Some reserves, however, will certainly be made on the subject. It is fully un- derstood here that the present situa- tion at Casa Blanca and Mazagan was not foreseen at the time the Algeciras convention was drawn up and re- quires to be specially dealt with, but Germany will consent for the moment to rely on French loyalty to the en- gagements entered into. No limita- tlon, therefore, is likely to be placed on the French military movements so long as they are considered to be nec- essary for the security of Europeans and of the Moroccan ports. FOR TWENTY-FOUR HOURS French Commander Agrees to Sus- pend Hostilities. Paris, Sept. 9.—A special dispatch from Casa Blanca announces that the varfous Moorish tribes around that place have asked General Drude, the rench commander, to suspend hos- tilities for the purpose of negotiating reace. The general, the dispatch says, egreed to remain inactive for twenty- four hours, when he will march on Taddert. The correspondent who sent the dis- patch savs it is suspected that the tribesmen In negotiating with the French commander are only seeking to gain time. Mair Subject of Discussion. Paris, Sept. 9.—The French nation has suddenly come to the realization that the Moroccan question looms up bigger every day. In Paris the situa- tlon is mow the main subject of dis- cussion by the people, who feel that momentous events in which France is bound to play a leading role are inev- Itahle. GOVERNMENT APPREHENSIVE Doubtful Regarding Loyalty of Irish Constabulary. Dublin, Sept. 9.—That the govern- ment is apprehensive with regard to the coming winter in Ireland and is doubtful regarding the loyalty of the Ponstabulary since the Belfast agita- ton is revealed in the present stren- nous-efforts to recruit the force. The humber of the constabulary has been steadily decreasing. for the past four years. The authorities have set aszi2~ wart of the Dubiin military barracks s additional quarters for the men and to the constables and officers througn- out the country there has been sent a clrcular instructing them to make haste to secure suitable candidates NEW CUNARDER SAILS. Largest Atlantio Liner Starts on Her Maiden Voyage. Liverpool, Sept. 9.—The: people of this city and its vicinity during the day concentrated their. attention on what was considered to be an epoch making event—the departure of the glant Cunard line steamor Lusitania, the largest of the Atlantic liners, on her maiden voyage to New York. Ad- ditional interest was given to the event in that the Lucania leaves port .lbflllt t_two_and one-half hours earlter the Moroccan seaports, | than the Lusitania,” ‘making "possible & trlal of speed across the Atlantio between the swiftest ocean steamer with reciprocating engines flying the British flag and the largest turbine steamer. Both vessels will call at Queenstown, but the Lusitania will not enter until the Lucania has cleared, 80 the older vessel will have a start of at least three hours over the hoat which the Cunard company built with the view not only of beating the fast- est time of its own ocean greyhounds but of regaining for Great Britain the blue ribbon of the Atlantic which was lost to Germany a decade ago. Of course the officials of the Cunard line say that no race is contemplated, but the engineroom crews of the vessels bave been busy for a week past get- ting everything in readiness with the expectation that the engines will be called upon to do their best on this occasion, BURTON IS NOMINATED. Congrsssman Named by Republicans for Mayor of Cleveland. Cleveland, Sept. 9.—Congressman Theodore E. Burton, chairman of the house committee on rivers and har- bors, has been nominated by accla~ THEODORE E. BURTON. mation for mayor of Cleveland at the Republican city convention. Francls W.

Graves, the mysterious “$1 a day re- mittance man,” who has been an enigma to St. Louis for thirty years, is dead. Drink was the cause of his death and the event served to clear up the mystery of the man’s identity. Charles E. Graves, president of | Charles E. Graves & Co., jewelers, Madison street and Wabash avenue, admitted that the dead dipsomaniac was his brother. The $1 a day on which the dead man lived was pro- vided by his brother. “I spent seven years trying to save him,” said Mr. Graves. “I was forced at last to give him up. However, I could nct let him starve and for the past twenty vears he has received $1 |a day. Since his twentieth year he | has been in the clutch of drink and every remedy on earth failed to save him.” The death of William Graves was in keeping with his life. He was found unconscious from the effects of liquor in the basement of an East St. Louls saloon and expired on his way |to the hospital in the police ambu- lance. ST. PAUL BUYS IDAHO LINE -| Weyerhaeuser Road to Become Part of Feeder System. Lewiston, Ida., Sept. 9.—Interest in railroad movements in the Lewiston country has been reawakened by a report which reached this city from Palouse to the effect that the Weyer- haeuser road from Palouse to Bovllle, known as the Washington, Idaho and Montana railway, has been purchased by the Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul and will become a part of the feeder system to be established in Central Idaho. ing extended from Boville to Collins, where connection with the Milwaukee road will be made. The latter is now pushing a survey from Collins to Clearwater, with the evident intention of entering Lewiston by that route, at water grade. This route would open up for the Milwaukee the vast timber region of the Clearwater and also wrest from the Hill lines much of the immense Clearwater tonnage, heretofore classed as a Northern Pa- cific asset. BIG INDUSTRIES TO FOLLOW Steel Trust Gets Permission to Con- struct Railroad. Superior, Wis., Sept. 9.—Now that permission has been granted the stee] trust to build and operate its line of railroad in Wisconsin from the steel plant site at Spirit Lake to the dock property on Allouez bay the company is already making preparations for the work. Several million dollars will be spent in track laying and bridge build- ing, according to testimony given be- fore Rate Commissioner Erickson here. It was also testified that a num- per of large industries would follow the steel plant to Superior and among these will be a big steel car works. The new railroad is being built to accommodate the business of the steel plant to dock terminals and avoiding the necessity of boats going through the bridges, which have caused delay and trouble in the past.

The liabilities are placed at $100,000, with little assets. Charges are made in the petition that F. W.

WA Peace Conierence Discusses the Opening of Hostilities. DUTIES OF NEUTRAL STATES Sitting Also Approves With Some Re- serves the Agreements Concerning Non-Combatants on Land and Sea in Time of War. The Hague, Sept. 9.—The fifth plenary sitting of the peace confer- ence, M. Nelidoff presiding, met dur- ing the morning in the Knights’ hall. The delegates were not so numerous as on"the occasion of former sittings, several of them having temporarily left The Hague while awaiting a de- bate on more important questions. The whole American delegation was present. The following rules regarding the opening of hostilities were adopted, a few countries making reservations: “The contracting powers agree that hostilities must not begin without previous unequivocal notice having been given, either in the form of a declaration of war, setting forth its motives, or in the form of an ultima- tum with a conditional declaration of war. “A state of war must be notified without delay to the neutral powers, the effect for the latter beginning after they receive notice, which can be given even by wire. In any case the neutral powers cannot protest against the lack of this notice if it is established that they undoubtedly knew that a state of war existed.” Rights and Duties of Neutrals. The sitting also approved, with some reserves, the agreements con- cerning the rights and duties of neu- tral states in time of war. The land rules include the following: “The territory of neutral states is inviolable. “Belligerents cannot establish wire- less telegraph stations in neutral ter- ritory or any other means of com- munication with belligerent forces on land or sea. “Volunteers cannot be enlisted or a body of combatants formed in neu- tral territory. “The exportation of provisions from neutral states and the transport of belligerents are for- bidden. “Belligerents are allowed to use means of communication belonging to neutrals or private companies. “Prisoners who escape to neutral territory if recapturad by troops must, after having asked for refuge in a neutral state, be set free. “A neutral state can defend its neu. trality by force without this constitut- ing an act of hostility.” Slept With Lighted Cigarette. Minneapolis, Sept. 9.—~Frank Decker of Duluth, aged seventeen, went to cleep with a lighted cigarette in his mouth in his room in this city. When he awolke his bed was on fire.
