From Ceur D. Alene.

BOISE, Idaho, July 20.-Warrants
for the arrest of the leaders of the
C@ur d. Alene riots were issued cut
of Judge Beatty's court yesterday
afternoon. The prisoners will prob
ably be brought to Boise, and the
question Of jurisdiction settled after
ward. The offense charged Is
violation Of the injunction issued out
of the said United States circuit
court. The bill dividing the state
into division removes all business to
the division In which it origionated.
Thus the C9ur d. Alene business
will go to Moscow II 1t should be
transferred, and 1t Is the general
opinion that II will be necessary,
A special term Of the United States
circuit court will be called If cases
go to Moscow, and this can only be
called by Justice Field.
