Judge F. S. Dietrich came in this
morning from Pocatello, where he has
just closed a term of the United States
district court, having held the longest
and busiest session held there in sew
eral years." says the Capital Evening
News. HE win leave next week for
Moscow to open the term there May
IS. 1t is thought that this term win
also be long one. there being num-
Der of important cases on the calen-
dar, which is now being made up by
Clerk Richardson.
"It is generally understood that the
timber cases from that section of the
state win be up for trial at this term
of court and that both sides have had
subpoenaes issued for witnesses and
will be ready for trial.
Last Term Of Court. Y
"At the last term of court held at
Moscow convictions were secured
against William Dwyer and Clarence
E. Robinet for subornation of perjury
and both sides were prepared to pro-
coed with other cases. but Judge Bea-
ty adjourned the term on account Of
his i'll health, and the balance, some
eight or ten of them, went over.
Should they all come up for trial and
no settlement be reached and there
should be no dismissals, the term
would probably run on until into the
summer.
1.-THE indictments in that section Of
the state attracting the most attention.
are against Hester and Ketterbachs
well known bankers of Lewiston, who
are charged with defrauding the gov
eminent in obtaining timber claims.
ut is generally supposed that they
are accused Of advancing money with
which claims were located by different
persons with the understanding that
the claims, after being secured in this
manner, were to be decided to, them
and that they secured large amount
of timber in this manner.

be an unusually lengthy one.
| "A report having gained currency
that Senator Borah had withdrawn
from the defense Of some of the men
in north idaho charged with timber
frauds, he was asked this, morning as
to the accuracy OF the. report.
HE said that 1t would, not be corr
rect to say that. he had withdrawn
from the cases, but that he had noti-
fled his clients some time ago that.
owing to the fact that the trial Of w.
d. Haywood in the Steunenbere muir
der cases was approaching ana had
been set at a time that would conflict
with the term OF the, United States
court at Moscow, he would be unable
to appear in their defense should the
cases have to be tried at this tine.
| Received No Answer.
HE states that he has not heard
from them and does not know wheth-
er they have made arrangements for
another attorney or whether It is an
ticipated that the cases would come up
for trial at the term which meets there
May or would be postponed
