"DETAILS or REMARK
ABLE CRIME. a

Spokane, Nov. 2.-Further details OF
the strange murder of a woman and
finding her body in a log hut fire on
Huckleberry mountain. near Cedonia,
WASH were received here last night.
The woman, II appears. was Mrs. A.
Joneson Of Chicago, who was engaged
as housekeeper a few months ago by
James Logan, bachelor farmer whose
ranch is on the west slope Of the
mountain.
Logan is held Tor murder on the
testimony of neighbortng ranchera-arsd
because he was the last person seen
with the woman. The most renuarIx-
able bit OF testimony comes from Dan
Taylor q rancher OF the district. Ha
declared that he had met Logan by the
side Of the burning hurt OF logs and sthaA
they talked about ths mule trade.
1t was in the shes of this fra Urea
hours later that three ranchers stumha-
ed over the bones of Mrs. Joneson aesd.
the supposition is that while Logan
and Taylor were talking quietly aazoaa@
their mules the woman's BODY was
cremated in front OF them. whgeka@w1

MAI. MURPHY CASE
AGAIN in COURT
STATES ATTORNEY NASH OF
WARD COUNTY WANTS TO DROP
FAMOUS cAsE-PoLLocK TAKES
MOTION TO DISMISS UNDER ADJ
VlSEMENT.

What is believed to be the last chap
ter in the Maj. J. s.. Murphy forgery
cases started four years ago at Minot,
occurred this morning when motion
signed by States Atty Dudley Nash
of Ward county was fled in the dis
trict court asking that the charge in
connection with the Harry Hardy
complaint be dismissed.
Atty Seth w. Richardson, appearing
for the defendant, presented the mo-
tion of the Ward county prosecutor.
In the opinion of Judge Chas. A. Pol
lock the Hardy case had been trans
ferred to Nelson county along with the
Crowder, matter. The motion was
hled.
History of the Case.
Actions against Major Murphy.
charged with forgery in the third de-
gree, was brought four years ago in
Ward county with Crowder and Hardy
as complainants. On an AFFIDAVIT Of
prejudice the cases were transferred
for trial to Cass county where the
Crowder case was tried.
The first trial resulted in a disagree
ment of the jury. The second jury
brought in a verdict of guilty. From
this the defense appealed to the SUI
preme court, arguing that Judge Pol
locks entrance to the jury room might
have influenced the jury. The case
was reversed and remanded for trial.
A second change of venue was
taken, the case being transferred to
Nelson county where last spring, on
motion of States Attorney Nash the
case was dismissed. This, however,
was in relation to the Crowder case.
being the only action that was sent 10
Nelson county for trial.
Atty. S. w. Richardson stated this
morning that should the motion for
dismissal be denied that the defense
would demand an immediate trial, de-
string to have the matter cleared up
as soon as possible. In that case it
would be tried at the jury term which
opens next Tuesday morning.
