Nilsson was brought up from the Ram
sey county jail and will probably be
set free. He was bound over to the
grand jury. It might be that in the
absence of grand jury at the present
term that he will be held until the
assembling of the grand jury next
April, and in case there is no grand
jury called at that time would it be
proper to hold him until there was a
grand jury called? In other words
what does being held to a grand jury
mean.
There are two. appeal cases from
justice courts on the calendar that
will not consume much time when the
cases are reached.
COURT NOTES.
The grand jurors were conspicuous
by their absence.
G. H. Foss. Ed Middlemack and L.
E. Somerville were excused from jury
duty.
Judge Searle's wife, Mrs. Geo. H.
Reynolds and Mrs. Charles Keith were
visitors at court Tuesday afternoon.
Janitor Clark had everything in
readiness for the opening of court
and even the ice water tanks showed
that they had been given bath.
Sheriff Claggett and Clerk of Court
Briggs are performing their last
official duties at court this term, as
they will retire from Office the first of
the year.
For a short calendar it is proving a
rather scrappy and lively program of
litigation. The proportion of jury
cases is larger than for some time,
and court will be in session most all
of the week.
Among the attorneys present at
court are G. Selover, G. E.. Purdy,

is CHARGED
Brandon Man and Little Son
We're Both Lodged in Jail.

Rutland, June 24.--Charles Miller
of Brandon was arrested in this city
about $3.50 O'Clock last evening by
Deputy Sheriff E. S. Whitaker on a
charge of stealing pair of horses and
was placed in the lookup. Mr. Whit
taker was coming down Royce street
from supper when he espied Miller
driving out of Prouty's livery stable
at the corner of Royce street and
Strongs avenue.
1t is alleged that Miller stole two
horses belonging to J. Tennian of
Brandon. Mr. Tennian telephoned his
son to that effect yesterday afternoon
and the latter who lives in this city,
Immediately notified the police depart
menu The word was given to the chief
otpolice about 3 o'clock yesterday af-
ternoon and he in turn notified Deputy
Sheriff Whitaker The chief also had
men watch all roads from Rutland.
Miller told a Herald reporter last
evening that he had got the horses from
Tennian in horse trade. He further
stated that S25 was due Tennian on the
horses but the payment of that did not
fall due until Saturday and he could
not understand Tennian's action in
having him arrested. He also stated
that he had various business dealings
with Tennian during the last 10 or 20
years and that the amount involved
sometimes reached $1,000. He said he
had no fear for his future safety as he
was certain that he could not be con-
victed of the charge preferred against
him.
Miller's little son, about five or six
years DID, who was with him at the
time of the mans arrest, was in Jail
with him last night, having refused to
be separated from his father He was
apparently oblivious of his surround
ings, being busily occupied in play ing
a mouth organ.

MANY SKIRMISHES

LONDON, June PA st. Petersburg
dispatch says Emperor Nicholas has re-
ceived the following dispatch from
General Kuropatkin:
"A japanese army from Kaichau 10
gradually advancing northward.
General Kuroki's advance from Stu
yen has been suspended, evidently to
effect an alignment of the two armies.
'"The strength Of the enemy's van
guard is approximately division and
several squadrons Of cavalry and the
Siuyen force of nine squadrons sup
ported by a strong column of infantry
toward the south.
'The enemy's position extends within
seven miles southwark to Somuchen,
along line from the sea to the noun
tainous and difficult district east Of the
railway.
'The enemy's advance lines are being
strongly held by cavalry and a screen
Of infantry. t. passes and defles in
the mountains east of the railway are
also vigilantly guarded.
"The Japanese are erecting field for
tificatiOns on the road from Siuyen TO
Kaichau.
THE enemy's outposts occupied the
pass between Pangrabei and Paichang,
on the northern road. nine and half
miles east of Siakhotan and the Cha
pan pass, seven and half miles south
Of Siakhotan.
"The japanese have fortified Kuan-
diansian, mounting eighteen guns with
strong screen.
The enemy has occupied tie village
of Sapenhai, twenty-five miles north
east of Saimatsze, and is firmly in
trenched"
The japanese have occupied Vafang-
ten, on the main road TO Liaoyang,
with a battalion of infantry and a
squadron of cavalry. A detachment OF
the same strength occupied Chanlinju,
in the valley of the Tsuo river, seven
miles north of Fengwangcheng.
The charge Of barbarous treatment
of Russian wounded made against the
japanese by some Russian correspond
ents at the battle of Vafangow does
not find general credence. Doubts as
to the truth Of the charge are increased
by reports of kindness and consdera-
ton shown by the japanese in many
instances to wounded Russians.
A Chefu dispatch says that a recon-
naissance in force of the approaches to
Port Arthur has been made by a jap
anese flotilla of three destroyers and
four torpedo boats, which ran in from
the east about noon and cruised along
the whole bluff, coming out past Lao
thieshan promontory. AS the hotilla
steamed along it was heavily engaged
with the forts, but apparently suffered
no damage, although a signal mast OF
one of the torpedo boats was knocked
out Of shape as if struck by a she'll.
The operation was backed at some dis
tance by two cruisers.
A Tokyo dispatch says that Field
Marshal Oyama is going to Manchurias
as commander in chief of the Japanese
army, with Lieutenant General Koda-
ma as chief Of staff.
1t was Field Marshal Marquis Oya-
ma who captured Port Arthur from
China in the war of 1S94-95, when he
led the famous Japanese second army.
