John Hottie, the Finlander who We'd
nesday night stabbed John Liston and
Thomas Lane, was arraigned in mu-
nicipal court before Judge William j.
Rasmussen this morning, but his case
was continued until next Friday. In
the meantime. he will be held in the
county Jail at Crookston. Two war;
rants, each charging stabbing, have
been sworn out against him, one by
Hottie has N' sworn ny out lta"e Warrants
against his two victims, charging them
With robbery. Just as soon as they
are able to be out, they will be ar
raigned.
According to the attending physi-
clan, Liston still is in a very precarious
condition. The crisis, it is said, will
not be passed for two or three days,
and If he survives that, he probably
will recover.
Lane. although still very weak, is
not in any danger. unless unforeseen
complications set in. Owing to the
fact that he is a u n charge. he
was taken to Crookston this morning
and placed in the hospital there.
When he RECEIVERS, he will be lodged
in the county Jail to await his hearing
on the robbery charge. Lane said that
he had been in East Grand Forks but

Liston is we'll known on both sides
Of the river. having resided in this
city for years. When asked regarding
the details that led up to the stab
bling, he made no reply. He declared
that he did not know who stabbed
him, but further than that would say
nothing.

States Attorney Hoyne (top) and
judge COOper.

Ouuke SStuDcF.
Chicago, June 11.-Was Maclay
Hoyne fairly elected states attorney
of Cook county last November?
This is a problem which has been
agitating Chicago for a long time. and
just now is causing more agitation
than ever.
Following the fall election charges
We're made that grave frauds had been
perpetrated and hat Hoyne owed his
election to them. Finally a grand
jury was called to look into the mat
ter. 1t concluded, after extended de-
liberation. that Hoyne was elected by
a majority Of five thousand.
Hoyne was just beginning to
breathe easily. when more evidence
of fraud vas unearthed. Two Chicago
judges, Cooper and Kersten, both
holding court on the anne floor Of
the county building, became interest
ed.
Kersten got busy Mt once and call
ed another grand jury. This jury is
now sitting on the case. Cooper, a
short time later, not to be outdone. al
so called a special grand jury for the
same purpose. 1t vas sworn in late
last week.
The question now arises, which
court has jurisdiction of the case?
Judge Cooper thinks his court has, as
the record indicates there were GER
tain Irregularities in the empanelling
of the kersten jury.

Recently the Evangelical church of

In the early part Of August, 1875,

Idaho, when a r~attlesnake, disturbed
In its sleep, struck quickly and with
out warning and closed it's teeth SO
firmly upon his leg a little below the
knee that he dragged it as he ran,
whipping and jerking, for 200 yards
or more.
He reached camp all right, the pois-

wound healed in a few weeks. and,
probably, as he believes. all the sub.

circumstance-the time Of the year.
