Joe Niederkofer, an eighteen year old
boy who is employed on Lawrence
Olinger's farm, on the Eagle Lake road,
went to his home three miles from
there, on the same road, yesterday, to
get the address of his brother. No one
was at home but his stepmother, and
they had words. and the woman came
to the city this morning and made
complaint that the boy had threaten
ed to burn the place and shed blood.
The boy was arrested on warrant, and
was arraigned before Judge Comstock.
According to his story, there is very
little to the matter. He denies having
made the threats charged, and says
that when he went to the house his
stepmother refused to give him his
brothers address and refused to give
Kim anything to eat. She also called
him crazy, and he had retorted that
if he was she was. also. They quar-
relied for some time, he said.
Judge Comstock continued the case
until March 81, telling the boy that
he must stay away from his faith
ers home, and that if he caused trou-
hle hc would have to be placed under
bonds to keep the peace. The young
man promised to stay away. As he
is not living at home, his father is
allowing him to keep what wages he
earns.

SEATTLE, June 5.-As yet the Seattle
police and the military authorities at
Fort Lawton have been unable to iden-
tify the negro who made an attack upon
Mrs. ]. W. Redding at her home in the
neighborhood of Fort Lawton last night.
Today a number of the negro soldiers
at the fort were paraded before Mrs.
Redding. but she was unable to identify
any of them as her assailant.
Lieutenant Colonel s. W. Miller, COM
handing the Twenty infantry, in
formed the Associated Press tonight
that soldier who is under suspicion
In connection with the attack is con-
hned in the guard house pending fur
ther investigation. Colonel Miller said
that this man was taken before Mrs.
Redding and her two daughters three
times today and that they were unable
to identify him as the man who made
the attack upon Mrs. Redding.
The officers at the post are making
every effort to apprehend the culprit
and will continue their investigation
until the man is caught or all are sat
isfied that he was not soldier.
The people residing in the neighbor-
hood of the fort are greatly incensed
over the attack upon Mrs. Redding.
Her positive assertion that the negro
wore a soldiers uniform has resulted
in a movement to petition congress TO

battalion from Fort Lawton. Plans are
