1922 and have during that time given I'M

feature is that no lawyers at all are al

The judge takes down the oral complaint

DENVER, Feb. 5-A special to the
Republic from Helena. Mont. says.
Today Governor Richards demanded OF
Secretary Olney that ne forthwith rid
Montana of the Cree Indians. The de-
mand was made after receipt this
morning of a letter from Secretary
Olney, referring to the Cree controversy
Of which the following Is part:
THE department has now recalled
the subject to the attention OF the
British embassy with a request that
the authorities of the Dominion of
Canada may be informed of your readi-
ness TO deliver the Indians to them and
that this government may be informed
as to when and where her majesty S
authorities will be ready to receive
them. The department expects an
early response to its inquiries and it is
hoped that the authorities of Montana
will be prepared to take prompt action
If a favorable reply shall be received
from the embassy
In reply Governor Richards informs
Secretary Olney that the matter is
now an international affair and that ii
is the duty of the federal government
to remove the Indians and not the
state. In conclusion Governor Rich
ards cites that the Crees have in times
past spread scarlet fever and diphtheria
throughout the state and that now
small pox has broken out and is
spreading on account of them, and
that Montana as a state, and part of
the union, demands of the federal gov
errment that it forthwith remove the
Cree Indians irrespective of England's
reply to Olney's letter.

MYSTERIOUS MURDER UNRAVELED
AT CINCINNATI.
Victim Was About to Become n
Mother, and She Was Killed to
Hide the Crime.

CINCINNATI, Feb. "a special to
the Commercial Gazette from Green
castle, Ind, says:
/ The family of A. S. Bryan, a leading
farmer living less than two miles from
this city have identified the clothing
brought here by detectives from Gin
cinnati and Newport, KY, as that of
their daughter, Pearl Bryan. They
furnish other information and cir
cumstances which leave no doubt in
the minds of the officers who have been
here since yesterday, that the body OF
the woman murdered and beheaded
near Fort Thomas, opposite Cincin-
natl, last Friday night. is that of thei1
daughter Pearl, aged % years, who left
home January %, ostensibly to visit
her friend, Miss Jane Fisher on Contra,
avetnue, Indianapolis. They have made
every possible inquiry today and find
that she did not visit Miss Fisher but
that she was taken to Cincinnati by
Scott jackson. She took with her a
switch of hair, which was brought here
by the officers and identified, as we'll as
the clothing and locks of her own hair
The shoes that we're brought here by
the officers were bought of Louis &
Hays by Pearl Bryan, November Is
1895, and the marks We're identified by
the dealers. AS soon as the officers
interviewed Mr. and Mrs. Bryan and
other members of their family, they
sent word to Cincinnati to have Scott
jackson, a student at the Ohio Denta.
college in Cincinnati arrested. The
mother of jackson lives here and the
families were intimate and highly
respected. The Bryan family also gave
information that led the officers tC
order the arrest OF William Wood, the
son of Rev. D. a. Wood at South Bend
Ind. Detectives Grim and McDermott
of Cincinnati, and Sheriff Plumber OF
Newport, KY. left here tonight fol-
South Bend to arrest Wood. The
families of Jackson, Wood and Bryan
are we'll known here and the tragedy
has created the greatest excitement
that was ever known in this part Of
Indiana
The clew to the arrest of jackson
and Wood was given to the officers by
William Earl, the Western Unior
operator here. He saw a letter writer
by Scott jackson to William Wood, ir
which the formar told the latter what
to give Pearl Bryan. and outlined
treatment for her. The officers hae
learned from the post norton at New
port, KY, that the murdered woman
was about to become a mother, ano
they at once took the clothing anc
other articles to the parents of the
girl referred to in the letter. They
identified the shoes, clothing and hair
and gave such information as to leaC
