door and when the landlord, early this
morning, asked him to open it so that
another Iodger might be admitted Sims

police. Efforts to persuade Sims 60
open the door failed and a hole was
smashed in it, Through the aperture
Sims shot a pistol out of one hand and
a lantern out of the other of Officer
Winston, who tried TO enter. There
upon additional police were sent for
and the house surrounded.
After the additional police had ar
rived the landlord and an officer again
went to the room and pleaded with
Sims TO come out and surrender.
No, / won't" he answered with an

Blackfoot May Not Get the Sugar
Factory.
(special % &c HeraId. }

Especial TO The Heraldl
BlaclSfoot, Ida. Feb. 20.-The Idaho
Sugar company today wired DEvyre &
Co. of Cleveland, o., that they would
resist any effort of Mr.. Hansen and his
Utah associates to acquire possession
of the machinery which Mr.. Hansen
contracted for and which the Utah
company proposes to locate near Idaho
Falls. The local Incorporation has
employed the best legal talent in the
state. They allege that the plant was
bought by Hansen, acting as trustee
for them, and that he has no authority
TO assign or sell the same. As this is
the only available plant in the country
for this year, and as those concerns
have agreed to put in factories this
year, the fight for possession of the ma
chinery will doubtless be an interesting
legal battle. The Idaho company IS
now backed by eastern capital. and as
they have the contracts covering over
) 900 acres of beet land they will spare
no efforts to get the machinery
