There has been no opportunity as yet of
placing any OF the chiefs on record, but
they will at first speak in opposition. with
q few exceptions though it 10 probable
that the same method used at Rosebud
will result with equal success here The
more progressive Indians are the only
ones who are openly favoring the bill.
The old chiefs evidently fear that land in

NATIONALITY NOT EVIDENCE.
Mr.. Forrest Continues His Plea for
the Cronin Suspects.

CHICAGO, December 11.-At the opening
of the Cronin trial this morning, Mr.. Forrest
resumed his address to the jury ia behalf of
the defense. He began with a long argu-
ment to show that the horse which drew
Cronin away to his death was not Dinan's
white horse. He read copies of extracts
from the testimony and took up the question
of Coughlin's guilt or innocence. He
claimed the probabilities favored the theory
of innocence. After recess Mr.. Forrest took
up the case of Mortenzen, the expressman,
who hauled the furniture to the Carlson cot
tage, and only the fact of his nationality
prevented him from being suspected of COM
plicity in the crime. Yet, in the eyes of the
law, had he been an Irishman and member
of Camp 20, the evidence against him would
not have been any stronger. So should not
the evidence be any stronger against the ac-
cused because of their nationality. The ad-
yocate argued that there. was no evidence
that Burke fled to Winnipeg. When ques-
toned by the police there, he voluntarily
gave his true name and his alias, Delaney,
and gave his residence as Chicago There
was, he declared, no credible evidence that
Burke was at the Carlson cottage on the
night of the murder Mr.. Forrest closed his
