ScHMIDT'S CLAIMS BACKED
Rv FELLOW 1TOJRIST

Aberdeen, S. D., Nov. LIN the trial
OF James Schmidt, charged with the
murder Of Ross c. Farrar, a brakeman
on the Northwestern railroad, wit
nesses for the defense testified that
they were present when the shooting
occurred, and that Farrar fired twice
at Schmidt before Schmidt fired the
shot which caused Farrar's death. The
men claimed to be harvest hands, and
stated they left after the shooting.
They gave detailed accounts of where
they had been, and the state attempted
to lay grounds for impeaching their
testimony in the cross examination, and
the men did seem to be slightly mixed
in the stories they told regarding their
whereabouts since the shooting.
Other witnesses for the state were.
railroad men who were members OF the
same train crew with Farrar, and who
told what they knew OF the shooting,
but none could tell whether or not
Farrar had fired first, or at all. Dep
uty Sheriff Frommel stated that when,
Schmidt was first arrested he denied
shooting Farrar, but later said he shot;
him, but in self defense.

OF the Associated Press Reporting
In detail how the British and French
forces took Ave lines OF Turkish
trenches during recent attacks on the
Gallipoli Peninsula. Reuters cor
respondent discloses that armored
turret motor cars were used In the
trench warfare. Heretofore the use
Of these cars has been restricted
mainly to reconnaissance and raid
ing. especially In cooperation with
seroplanes. the purpose for which
they were built.
II was q surprise. even to the Brit
ish soldiers. to have the armored cars
come up to help In the rcut Of tbe
Turks. The cars. which are incor-
porated as part OF the Royal Naval
Air Service. had been brought ashore
secretly and hidden. In anticipation
Of the fact that they might be help
full. Notwithstanding that the roads
there were anything but ideal for
automobile work. When the allied
movement began on June 4. at noon.
the armored turret cars made their
way from their station through loose
dust. more than ankledeep. and ovei
ground pitted with shell holes ant
across the British trenches over
bridges that had been laid for them.
They moved up to the very edge OF
the first Turkish line OF trenches.
but there they had to halt. as they
could not leap the deep and wide
caverns which the Turks had aug.
The appearance OF this new and for.
midahle weapon enhanced the gen.
eral state OF confusion and terror In
which the Turks seemed 10 await the
attack and when the cars opened fire
with the Maxim gun which each car
ried In turret they scattered the
Turks to the rear.
But as soon as the Turks had re
covered from their surprise they
found the cars conspicuous targets
Bullets began to ping against their
armored sides and shells fell around
them. and one cars turret was knock
ed on. but nobody was killed.
The correspondent said one prize
Of the day was ''the largest bag Of
Turkish prisoners yet secured. ard
the capture Of several German Of
ficers and bluejackets from the for
