Dr. Marcum was called dnd stated that at the autopsy he and Dr. Gilmore had ascertained that one bullet had inflicted a wound in the abdomen of the dead man; that the bulletentered between the ninth and tenth ribs and had touched the right lobe of the liver and went entirely through the left lobe, ruptur- ing a gall bladder, but that the bullet had not struck the intestines. This was a possibly fatal shot, but not necessarily so. The doctor stated that another bullet had entered the head of the dead man on a line from the tip of the ear and “passed out through the right eye, the course being two and one-half inches back of the right ear; that this shot had proved in- stantly fatal. Patrolman Allen Benner, who fired the shot that killed Johnson, testi- fied that he had accompanied Sheriff Hazen and Deputy Johnson to the bridge east of town; and he told substantially the same story that has already been published relative to the shooting at the bridge, when the to do some pretty deputy was dangerously wounded and Johnson lost his life. Mr. Benner stated that he was so far away from the two robbers while at the bridge that it was impossible for him to recogfize either of the men at that time. p Sheriff ‘Hazen told about the same story that had been related by Benner, with the exception that he had told his deputy not to dis- turb the robbers until they had crossed onto the bridge, but that the deputy had commanded the robbers to hold up their hands before they had gotten well onto the bridge. C. F. Egge of Crookston, post- office inspector, was present at the inquest and watched the proceed- ings closely. As the robbers who looted the safe at the Puposky store gotaway with some of “Uncle Sam’s” money, it is likely that the postal authorities will institutea vigorous search to apprehend the fugitive bandit-who accompanied Johnson, and who appears to have disap- peared entirely off the face of the earth. HELD TO FEDERAL GOURT HAINES GIVES BONDS - Arthur Haines Was Given Hearing on Charge of Introducing Liquor Into Indian Country. Before U. S. Commissioner H. A. Smions, yesterday, Arthur Haines was given a hearing on the charge of introducing liquor into the “Indian country” and was held to the federal court which meets in Fergus Falls next May. Haines was arraigned in the early part of November and his case was continued until yesterday, when the hearing was held. Testimony was introduced alleg- ing that Haines had liquor on the boat on Red lake of which he was captain and that he disposed of it to certain passengers whom it is claimed were government detectives. Commissioner Simons considered the evidence of sufficient strength to hold Mr. Haines to the federal court, and Haines gave bonds in the sum of $500 for his appear- ance at Fergus Falls next May, and was released. Frank Tuffts, deputy United States marshal, has been making trips in and out of Bemidji for several days in connection with his duties as federal officer. While he was here yesterday, Mr. Tuffts arrested James Quinn of Bena, who was wanted by the federal authorities on the charge of intro- ducing liquor into the “Indian country”’—at Bena. Mr. Quinn demanded an immedi- ate hearing, but his case was set for Thursday morning at 9 o’clock. Bonds were fixed in the sum of $300 for Quinn’s appearance Thursday morning, and in default of furnishing bonds, he was lodged in the county jail.

His brother, Fortunato, and another member of the band were arrested in Tamaqua, Pa., and were also sent to Berwick. The Calabra brothers were formerly residents of West Berwick, where they are said to have been leaders of a “Black Hand” gang that in 1906 is al- leged to have killed and disposed of the bodies of nine Italians. Some of the alleged murders were committed while the two Calabras were in prison for extortion. One month ago For- tunato Calabra was pardoned and his brother’s time expired several months ago. Men are digging up the cellars of many houses, in which it is expected will be found the remains of the men who have been missing since 1906.
