NEWS OF NORTHWEST.
Two Of the Rose Gang Get
Change Of Venue.
SUICIDE OF AN OREGON WOMAN
The Marshal Of Roslyn Dangerously
Shot BY : Negro-The Flat
head Wanderers.

OysrEzvILLE. Aug. ga jury has been
secured and the trial Of John B. Rose is
now in progress. 1t was 10 o'clock last
night before the defense had exercised
their twelfth peremptory challenge. The
states attorneys peremportily challenged
but one juror, and waived challenge five
times. Before . jury was obtained about
forty jurors were examined, several being
excused by the court on account of their
inability to analyxe their own ideas as to
whether or not they had formed an opinion.
After thirteen hours the following jury
was empaneled: Edgar Brooks, Phillip
Patton, @. II. Ehubbe, Wilson Graham, A.
Brix, w. w. Campbell, Frank Salisbury,
Charles Patton, Benjamin Hutton, Amos
West, James r Hal. Jerome Cradle.
Rumors of . new confession by George
Rose are floating around, one being to the
effect that George now admits that be
killed the woman and Edwards the man,
but nothing in the nature of confession
caused much surprise at this stage of the
case.
The prosecution claim to have secured
strong additional evidence against John B.
Rose. while the defense say they can prove
that the murdered people were alive until
February 2, when John B. Rose was at
Oystervilie.
The prosecution this morning suggested
that . change of venue be allowed in the
cases OF Gibbons and George Rose, on the
ground that Pacific county had already
been put to great expense and in view OF
the fact that two trials had already been
held here. This offer was accepted on be-
half Of Gibbons and George Rose.
The court in deciding the matter
stated that in view of the
expense to Pacific county, and the fact
that two cases of equal Importance with
the others are yet to be tried and but fortv
jurors remain. it was his opinion that much
expense would be saved by granting q
change of venue to Chehalis county. 1t
was then agreed that the cases should be
tried in Montesano at the regular Novem-
Der term.
The case Of John B. Rose was then
opened. His son George was the FIRST
witness. He repeated the evidence given
in the Edwards case, and rigid cross-exam-
inasion failed to shake his memory or con-
fuse him

CHICAGO, Aug. ga curious circum-
stance was developed at the inquest on the
babe which Mrs. Frances Russell is accused
of having starved to death. Mrs. Russell
admitted when placed under oath that not
withstanding the accepted belief and her
own previous statement, the infant is not
hers. The woman then stated that she oo-
tanned the child from an orphan asylum
and palmed it off on her husband as their
offspring. The reason she assigned for the
deception was to prevent trouble in her
family. By means of drugs taken to quiet
her nerves she had Internationally miscar-
ried, and to hide it from her husband she
brought home the child.
Thomas Russell, the befooled husband,
was intensely angered on hearing his wife's
testimony. II did not know 1t until this
moment that the child was not ours" he
said.
Mrs. Russell was held without bail to
await the action of the grand jury.
