with sharp knife, gashed her throat
in horrible manner. Not satisfied
with this he drew a .revolved and fired
two shots at her, both striking her in
the face, but in such a manner as to

WANTED TO KILL WHITES.
Murderous Reds Are Willing to Die
for Their Crime.


MANDAN, N. D., May 1.-The au-
thorities concerned in the prosecution
of the Spicer murderers, are inclined
to the belief that all four of the men
originally suspected, Black Hawk, Ca
dott, Ireland and Holy Track are inn
plicated, and that the two latter, who
have confessed, are not alone in their
guilt. 1t is probable that the authori-
ties of Emmons county will proceed
upon this theory until the innocence
of the other men is otherwise establish
ed than by the simple statement of the
two boys, who may have reasons Of
their own for wishing to clear the other
men. At any rate the others are still
confined in the Jail at Williamsport
where they will be kept until the ques-
ton of their guilt or innocence is set
tied by tribunal.
Paul Holy Track appears to have
been the leader in the whole affair. He
is step-son of Siyaka or Rushing Eagle.
Paul says, in substance: "Since last
July / wanted to kill some white peo-
pie; for a long time I had no oppor-
tunity, but heard of these white peo-
pie, and thought it a good chance to
kill. So went to Winona with Philip
and we bought whisky to make our
hearts strong, and we went up and
killed them shortly after dinner time.
Now I am satisfied; have killed three
white people: let the white people take
me and do as they want to with me-
