BADGER NOTES.

THERE is a legal contention between
the state and United States authorities
over the question of jurisdiction 10 try
the two Indians held for the murder OF
Boneash and wife at Odanah some time
since. There are two warrants out Tor
their arrest. one sworn out by the DIS
trict attorney TO the sheriff OF Ashland
County, the other sworn out by nlted
States District Attorney Harper TO nit
ed States Marshal Oakley. Harper
claims jurisdiction in the case from the
fact that the bank of the river where
the crime was committed, while the
property of a boom and logging com
panv. is still within the bounds of the
reservation, which fact leaves the case
in the jurisdiction of the United States
court over the state circuit court. The
matter will be left with Judge Parish,
whose decision will be final.
TIE jury in the Lipke poisoning case
at Ashland returned verdict Of not
guilty ainst Mrs. LIpke. The jury

as principal, could not be convicted

verv damaging evidence was introduced
against the defendants. Prof. Haines,
of Rush Medical College, testified that
! he had examined the stomach OF
Krause and found it contained strych-
nine. Several other witnesses were
sworn to show that Luebke had on pre-
vious occasions tried to persuade Mrs.
| Luebke, then Mrs. krause, to admins
| ter poison to deceased. Several physi-
| clans testified that person could not
| die from strychnlne poison without
showing signs of agony and distCrhont
