out of a justice court charging
Hye with the murder of Kennedy
and the prisoner will be held un-
til the evidence on this charge is
passed on. The first warrant
only included the charge of MUIR

Horses Will Be In Demand

The war in Europe probably
will prolong the demand, for
horses for years to come. The
waste of horse flesh in the war is
second to that of human life.
The various countries that have
the money and the means of con-
veying the animals are buying
horses wherever availa b | e
throughout the world. When
peace finally is restored more ami
mails will be needed for agricult-
ure than the supply can take care
of, unless the breeding of horses
becomes general. Farm work
should be done by good mares
which, whenever possible, should
be bred to good stations. Only
horses of high quality may be
profitably raised today. Inferior
horses are a drug on the market
and their production should be
discouraged. During the Boer
war more than 100000 horses
were bought in this country. 1t
is doubtful if any government
could obtain a similar number of
animals here except at excessive
cost. With the exception of Rus
sia the United States has more
horses than any other country in
the world and it is natural that
the warning nations should look
to America for horses when final
ly peace is restored.

The DAYS STORY
OF The WAR
Condensed Reports of Latest
Events in Europe's War, as
Given Out by the Associated
Press.

Nov. 1.-THE first decisive VIC
tory of the war has been won.
Tsing-Tau, the German fortress
on the Shan Tung peninsula in
China, has surrendered to the
allies.
The Japanese and British
forces encompassed the downfall
of the stronghold after it's garri-
son of 1000 had held out for
nearly three months. With its
loss Germany is evicted from
Asia.
Fighting with the British be-
fore Tsing-Tau were Indian de-
tachments.
On the European battle front
Russia claims through Grand
Duke Nicholas, her commander
in-chief, the greatest victory
since the beginning of the war in
the driving back of the Germans
to their east Prussian frontier
and defeats to the Germans and
Austrians below the river Vistula.
Germany, however, does not
concur in this statement, saying
there has been no change in the
situation in the eastern battle
front. The fighting in Poland,
according to Berlin, has not yet
begun on account of the slow
troops movements due to bad
roads.
1t is admitted that numerically
the Russians are the stronger in
this region, but Berlin says it
hopes to overcome this by advan-
tageous positions.
In Austria still, according to
the Germans, the Russians are
continually harassed by the troops
of Emperor Francis Joseph.
In the extreme western zone,
south and east of Ypres, hard
fighting continues, but with
neither side having a distinct ad-
vantage.
Both the allies and the Ger
mans report gains, but neither
make claims that would indicate
anything except that at all points
the contenders either are endeav-
ing to push forward or to check
advances.
The British admiralty reports
the laundering of the cruiser
Good Hope, and expresses the
fear that the cruiser Monmouth
has been forced ashore as re-
suit of the battle last Sunday be-
tween British and German war
ships off the coast of Chile.
A newspaper dispatch says
Germany will move $50. 900 fresh
troops into Belgium next Sunday.
Nov. 1O.-Further disasters
have occurred from mines in the
North sea, the Swedish steamer
Atle having been blown up and
six of her crew drowned and the
Dutch fishing boat Poolster hav-
ing met a like fate.
In Belgium all the new railway
employees have stopped work un-
der orders from the Belgian gov
ernment, thus bringing railway
traffic to a complete standstill,
and interfering with the move
ment of German troops. The
German authorities, it is report
ed. will replace the Belgians by
Germans.
The suggestion that Japan send
an army to Europe has not yet
taken tangible form, but Toxic
reports that the idea is attract
ing increasing attention and finds
support in military circles. The
sending of a Japanese army in
the west would be a movement

.KOOSKIA BANKER
INDICTED
Federal Court Finds J. l..
Gross Guilty of Introducing
Liquor on the Reservation
Other Indictments Returned

Moscow, Nov. 10. Especial to
The Tribune. The trial of the
federal case entitled the United
States vs.. J. L. Gross, the Kooskia
banker charged with the intro
duction of liquor on the Indian
reservation at Kooskia, will COM
mence in the morning. The case
was called for trial late this after
noon and the jury was secured
before the adjournment for the
Gay was taken.
The grand jury this evening
reported four indictments as fol-
lows: Ray Keller, Culdesac;
Thomas James, Mike Mccormack
and William Allison. These de-
fendents are charged with either
introducing liquor on the Indian
reservation or selling liquor to
Indians. The grand jury failed
to find indictments in the cases
of Hugh Narbo, of Culdesac, and
George Purdam, of Winchester.
Narbo was charged with selling
cider at Culdesac that had been
fermented to the extent that in
toxication was possible.
The trial jury in the federal
court is keeping pace with the
grand jury and is hearing eIi-
dence and disposing of cases al
most as rapidly. The grand jury
is still grinding away on liquor
violation cases and has yet about
20 cases to consider. This after
noon the grand jury brought in
an indictment against Thomas
Moriarity, charged with intro
ing liquor on the reservation.
During Monday the grand jury
brought in five indictments, the
names of only three of the de-
PENDANTS being disclosed. Peter
McMains, of Lewiston, e. E.
Ping, of Kooskia, and Robert D.
Clark, of Lewiston, were among
those indicted on a liquor charge.
The trial jury today found ver-
diets of guilty against Peter Nc
Mains, of Lewiston, Jack Kidder,
of Kooskia, Robert D. Clark, of
Lewiston. 1t found a verdict of
not guilty in the case of H.
Brown. Ping plead not guilty.
Guy Lands pleaded guilty today.
The court today in the case Of
John w. Kimberling, who had
pleaded guilty to carrying liquor
on the reservation, reserved SEN
tence on the defendant until the
May term of court. Kimberling
lives in the Cottonwood creek
country near Culdesac.
Moscow, Nov. Ill. L. Gross,
the Kooskia banker, was today
found guilty of introducing liquor
on the reservation and will be
sentenced later.
In substantiation of the charge,
the prosecution placed on exhibit
in the case great quantities of
whiskey, more than % gallons of
the liquor in gallon vessels being
heaped, before the jury in an eff
fort to substantiate the charge.
According to the statement by
the prosecutor this morning Gross
is alleged to have imported the IL
quor from the east to Grangeville
and in a roundabout way had il
transported to Kooskia where il
was buried at various points along
the banks of the Clearwater river
and according to government
witnesses the liquor was period
ically removed under cover OF
darkness from its cache to rooms
occupied by Gross. The charge
] ia made that he was engaged in
