senger with a ticket for Bismarck.
However, further up the road when
a proper officer appeared seeking the
girl in question, there was no inter-

There viii be no investigation by
the 500 officials as TO the conduct Of
Mr.. Heath, for. as Mr.. Derrick says,
he only did his duty and exercised his
proper authority while he was in

of Sam Gold occupied the federal
court all day yesterday and will prob
ably not go to the jury until late to-
day. Gold is charged with having at

petitors to refrain from bidding on cer-
tain tracts Of isolated land in western
South Dakota. The complaining wit
ness was Millard Cleveland, and Judge
L. w. Crofoot attorney for the defense,
in outing the case, said the defense
would show that it was Cleveland who
sought to bride Gold, instead of Gold
trying to bride Cleveland not to bid
on the land. Edward Weeks and Otha
II. Darby were arraigned on a joint
Indictment charging them with con-
spiracy to defraud the government by
securing powers of attorney from old
soldiers and fling on homesteads in
their names, later securing the old
soldiers ACCOMPLISHMENTS. and finally
selling the ACCOMPLISHMENTS for large
sums of money. The defendants will
plead this afternoon.
