SENT TO INFIRMARY.
Woman Says She Has Been Mis-
treated.

Nervous, pale and crippled with rheu-
matism, young woman called at the
county attorneys office yesterday to
complain that Don Porter had refused
to let her have her trunk, holding it as
security for railroad fare advanced to
her from Denver, where she engaged
TO work as a dining girl at the Ken
yOn.
The girls story was to the effect that
soon after arriving in this city she was
compelled to go to the hospital for
treatment for rheumatic fever. Emerg-
ing from there, she found herself with
out home or friends, and Mr.. Porter,
she alleged. held her trunk, thus pre-
venting her from getting her clothes
and seeking other employment.
InasmuCh as the unfortunate woman
was still apparently i'll, Attorney Put
nam, on the advice of County Physi-
clan Anderson. who knew the woman
physical condition, arranged for her to
enter the infTmary as a patient until
she could recover her strength. but
she failed to show up at the countys
home.
Mr.. Porter denied that he was hold
ing the wOmans trunk. and maintained
that he was not so hard-hearted as had
been represented. He. however, ex-
pressed himself as feeling weary over
the tricks that were played upon MIN
by the Denver employment offices in
sending hotel help here when the ones
employed boldly declared their inten-
ton of rendering no service even for
repayment of railroad fare advanced.
Mr.. Porter holds no claim against the
wOman's trunk.

door with a gun and seeing his daughter
lying on the ground, fired at Brown
with deadly effect. killing him instant
ly. Lytle surrendered.

cCroners jury returned a verdict of

CASE AT BLACKFooT.
Raum's Keeping Of a Saloon viii
Figure in the Trial-Proceed-
ings in Impeachment Cases


Blackfoot, Ida, March 15.-The entire
day was occupied in the district court
in the selecting of the jury in the
Raum- Sinclair murder trial At the
hour of adjournment four jurors had
been excused Tor cause and one each
by the state and defense peremptorily-
1t is evident that the defense is going
to fight every inch of the ground as the
examination of jurors by Attorney
Holden for the defense was long and
searching.
1t is conceded that the questions
touching the qualification OF a juryman
as outlined by defense is fair and
proper. The fact that Raum at the
time of the unfortunate affair was en-
gagged in running a saloon is the factor
IN the qualification of a juror, whether
or not he would be predjudiced against
a man engaged in the liquir traffic.
1t is apparent, so far as developed,
that the defense will set up the case of
self-defense. From the nature of the
questions propounded the defense will
attempt 10 show that defendant was in
danger of great bodily harm at the
time the blow was struck. Attorney
Hawley for the defense will be here

with the result that quite a number of
old-ttme employees are stepping down
and out TO make room for younger
blood.
1t is stated that batch Of twenty
engineers was examined at Omaha a
few days ago, and out of that number
a bakers dozen were dismissed. The
examination embraces all men en-
ployed in train service. from plebeian
section hands 70 conductors and en-
gineers, and heads are being Topped off
as thick as autumn leaves, as a con-
sequence.
A prominent railroad official is re-

Union Pacific goes all along the line
with the same ratio of dismissals as
has been inaugurated, that not less
than $500 heads will fall into the bas-
ket in the near future.
The wedding out of employees bids
fair to be more vigorous among the
tried veterans of the road, with the
result that old runners are getting
