HARVEY LOGAN ARRArGNED.
Judge Will Not Allow Entrance Of
Nolle Prossequi.

Knoxville, Tenn, June 3.-Charles john
son. alias Harvey Logan. alias Kid Cur
ry, the alleged Montana train robber, was
given his first breath CT fresh air today
when handcuff, j and surrounded by dep
uty sheriffs he was taken from Jail to
the court house to stand trial on five diff
ferent charges.
On two minor ones he was fined and
sentenced to six months Imprisonment
but on the three major ones, shooting
two policemen and bringing stolen prop
erty into the State. continuances were
taken to the September term of court.
Tho Attorney Gce'.toal Tried TO enter a
nolle prossequi In these cases, so that
United States Marshal Austin and depu-
ties who were present in the crowded
court room could arrest the prisoner on
United States warrants. but the judge re-
fused to entertain the motion.
Logan is believed to have participated
in the Great Northern train robbery. in
which $4,000 was secured. One-fourth of
that amount was recovered here after his
arrest for shooting two policemen. He
has been in solitary confinement nearly
six months and has four more ahead Of
him before his next trial.
Chief Detective Canada of the Union
Pacific Railroad returned to Omaha to-
night. He was disappointed that Logan's
cases had not been transferred to the
Federal court.

Exiled Beers May Come to the United

New York, June 3.-As a result Of

be made to find homes for some Of them
in the United States. w. D. S. Nyman.
Of Cape Colony, who fought with the
Beers. and who has been speaking in the
United States for the Boer cause during
the past year, said regarding the terms
of surrender:
'The colonial Beers are to be punished.
] am colonial Boer, born a British SUBJ
ject and i am liable to Imprisonment for
from five to ten years IL the terms as pub
lished are correct. / am acquainted with
President Roosevelt and shall see IL there
is not way for some of our people to
come to this country. l think there is a
great opportunity for us here. There are
few here now. but in Portugal there are
good many colonials, and they probably
will not want to return to South Africa
now. There are men well born. II the
United States Government would open
the way, they would be glad to settle in
some state like New Mexico, Arizona,
Texas or Colorado. They would make
good citizens: no one would need to be
ashamed of themu. l shall use every
effort to open the way to bring them
here"
