ALL SLAIN WITH KNIVES Mule Evidence of Deadly Hattlc for Money of Two or Dead Party of Bulgarians ast Oc cupied the House. MINNEAPOLIS. March 2S. The hacked and mutilated bodies of six Bulgarians, evidently workmen, were found lying In , pools of coagulated blood In a little tumbledown house. No. 245 Tenth avenue South, this morning. Four of tho bodies wero found In a sleeping room on the second floor, cut and slashed in a shocking manner, whilo in the cellar were two others with their throats cut from car to ear. Near the bodies were found five large bowle knives with razor-edged blados nearly eight Inches long and a blood stained hatcheL Identity of the Dead. The dead: NIkolo Dimltri. KIrle Dlmitri, Agne Karofll, Yerstan Tovko. Unka Haudaba. Baakon KapannL Tho Dimitris were evidently father and son. All of the men wore com paratively young. None of the men bore names about their clothing, those given being taken from letters In the sacks and satchels in the room where four of the bodies were found. The nationality of the men was determined by Rev. Mr. Boskowlcz, pastor of tho Greek church here. He found among the papers h discharge from the Turk ish army, belonging to Agne Karofll. Only Clew to Tragedy. The only clew to the wholesale mur der which may lead to something defi nite was obtained from a drayman named MIkelberg. He says he was approached last Monday afternoon by some men whom he took for Italians or Greeks,- who wanted him to tako six packages from the house where the bodies were found to the Union Station. On arriving at the house lie found there were 12 packages, and after .some haggling about the price, he took them to the station. A young man aged about 20 years, rode on tho wagon with him. The other men walked. The man who rode on the wagon said the party was going to Duluth. At the station he noticed that the men from the house were Joined by several other men, a woman and a little girl. From this clew, the police believe that the murders were committed sometime between midnight Sunday and Monday morning. Man Wlio Heard Fighting. This suspicion Is clinched by the statements of S. Magnuson. ownor of the house where the murders occurred. At about 10 o'clock today he asked the police to search the house. He said that an aged German who oclipied the lower floor of the house couid not be found. He it was who notified Mag nuson that a fight had taken place in the rooms over the one occupied by the German Sunday night. The German said he heard scuffling in the rear of the house, but thought nothing of it until today, when he observed that the tenants above him were not moving about as usual. After notifying Mag nuson. the German disappeared and had not been located up to a late hour today. Magnuson at once notified the police who broke open the doors and made, the horrifying discovery. Magnuson told the police that about four months ago a well-dressed Italian rented the upper floor of the house and paid four months rent In advance. The Italian told him lie was foreman of a railroad construction gang and that none of tho hotels would keep the men. The next day 12 men moved their few belongings In. They went to work each day and returned In the evening. They were quiet, never drank and those living about the place paid little atten tion to them. Magnuson never inquired their names and merely entered them on the books as tenants for whom four months rent had been paid In ad vance. The "foreman" was never seen again, and the police have absolutely no knowledge of his identity. Battle to Death for Money. The two bodies in the basement, ac cording to Coroner Klstler. had been dead nearly two days. The blood sur rounding the bodies in the upper rooms was more fresh than around those In the cellar. Also the wounds on the four appeared to have been mado later. The men In the basement had been killed by having their throats cut, and the police are inclined to believe that they were murdered for their money and that a free-for-all fight followed over a division of the spoHs. This Is Indi cated by the wounds on the bodies found in the upper rooms. Their faces were slashed almost beyond recogni tion and there were wounds all over the bodies, , all, "however, having deep slashes In the throats. One man had fallen against a hot stove and the right side of his face was burned past all identification. Beside this man lay the bloody hatchet. The flght-for-moncy theory Is borne out by the finding near the bodies of one or more money-belts, in which was fjOG in United States currency and gold. On one of the bodies was found a watch still going. Some of the bodies had been stripped evidently for rob bery. The police here and at St. Paul arc looking for two boys, aged about 12 and l years of age, who were In tho house Saturday and who are missing, but who are not supposed to have had anything to do with tho murders. In the two satchels found In the house were, beside some woodsmen's clothing, a curious set of regalia, con sisting of caps, robes and kerchiefs, boarlng characters and emblems which. It is thought, may have belonged to an order of the Greek Church. SUSPECTS SEE.V IX DUliUTH Arrived Monday Xlglit and Txift for the "West. DUI.UTH, March 2S. The police of Duluth are searching for a party of eight Which reached this city Monday night on a Great Northern train.

NOVEL ENGINE OPERATES TER MINAL COS TURNTABLE. Said to Be the Only One of Its Kind on the Coast Snves Time and Iabor. A comprosf ed-air engine, said to be the only one of its kind on the Coast, has Just been put In by the Northern Pacific Terminal Company to operate its turn table at the torminal grounds. Formerly the turning of cars was done by hand, and the services of from three to five men have been required whenever a car or engine was to be turned. Now all this has been done away with. All the man operating the table has to do Is to touch a lever and the compressed air does the rest. The new turntable, lately Installed at the terminal yards. Is 73 feet 3 Inches In length. A similar table at the Albina shops has an equal length, but it is oper ated by hand power. The Northern Pa cific Terminal Company's . table weighs 10J.0C0 pounds and turns liVMon locomo tives with ease. The engine Js placed under one end of the turntable and Is geared direct to the whel which runs on the clrculnr track on the outside edge of the pit. The engine has 12 horsepower and is of the double-oscillating type, capable of moving around the circle In either direction. The compressed air Is Introduced from tin plant of the Terminal Company and Is ueed three times in passing through the mechanism, hlglf. medium and low-pressure cylinders being used. The air is ap plied at a pressure of IS) pounds and turns the table at a speed of about five miles an hour. An airbrake is used In stopping the ta ble just where desired. The passenger turntable at the terminal grounds Is kept busy for a large iwrt of the day and between M and " cars are turned on It dally. The saving In time and labor by the new apparatus Is con siderable. Another device In ue nt the terminal grounds that is claimed to be the only, one in service on this Oiant Is the air testing apparatus, which, when attached to the air-brake system of a train, will detect Imperfections and locate them, thus insuring safety. VANCOUVER SUBURBAN ROAD Contracts Slpncd and Worlc to Be Started Within Sixty Days. VANCOUVER. "Wash., March 2S. (Special.)
