dead as a result of a fracture of the
skull received in a fall on Thursday
afternoon from the roof of the public

Young Olson, together with a com

cordingly started to climb. When part
way up he lost his hold and slipped
-over the edge, of the cornice, being pre

feet below. A' fra6ture of the skull
and other Jnjurlesfaere sustained and
death ensued very shortly After the
accident.
The. deceased was the second son of
of 'C. H. Olson, who is a- prominent

brother, who is at Quincy, 111., and
who has been notified, there are six
sisters. One of the latter is attending

President Receives Telegrams.
Washington, March 30.^-President
Roosevelt today authorized the publi
cation of two telegrams received by
liim last night. One came from John
H. Winder, chairman of the Bitumin
ous Coal Operators' association at
Indianapolis and the other from John
MitchelH president of the United Mine
Workers of America and Francis L.
Robbins, one of the. largest coal op
erators in the Pittsburg district. The
telegram from Winder proposes that
the president appoint, a commission to
investigate all matters which in the
judgment of such commission had an
important bearing on the scale of
wages which should be paid all classes
of labor in the coal' mines of the ter
ritory involved. He proposes that the
commission report to the president its
finding* of facts together with itp re
commendations and suggests that the
commission have power to administer
oaths and compel the attendance of
witnesses.
The telegram signed by Messrs.
Mitchell and Kobbins takes issue with
the statement made in the telegram
signed by Winder 3a,ving that it does
not represent the real facts. They as
sert that one-half of the total tonnage

BANGS IN HOT CASE.
... ii i—
Grand Forks Attorney in Warm Mix
Up at Hillsboro.
Attorney Tracy R. Bangs has not
yet returned from Hillsboro. where he
went to represent the defense in a
blind pig case. He expected to return
yesterday morning and was expected
again last night and this morning, but
has not yet put in an appearance.
It seems that the case is one in
which neighbrohood affairs are being
aired .and that the examination of a
single witness consumes half a day
or more. The defendant Is G. O. Helgo
of the firm of Helgo Bros., liverymen.
During a recent campaign it is alleged
that liquor was used at a political
meeting held in the barn of Helgo and
since that time some of the partici
pants have grown cold toward Helgo
and have had him arrested for blind
pigging. He is setting up the defense
that he was not present at the meet
ing and did not know that liquor was
to be on the program.
