Cal, Jan. 31.-Madison Slaughter, a Chico, Cal. minister, was indicted by the county grand jury here today on five separate counts, each al leging statutory offense against Gertrude Ldmson, d fifteen year-old girl whose parents are members of Mr Slaughter's congregation. The in dictments were returned despite the testimony of the girls father and mother that their daughters charges against the minister were untrue. The ease was under consideration all day by the grand jury. A bench warrant for the arrest of the minister was is sued immediately after the indictments Were returned.

 Serious shortage of foodstuffs at inland settlements along the roads were reported to Prince, he said. by storekeepers who told him they were conserving their supplies by limiting sales in hopes that their stocks would last until new supplies were brought in to them.
 Prince said he was on foot after two days travel. during which he was forced to make detours over high ridges and other times through low places, where he either waded through or swan swollen streams.
 "I counted g earth slides at differ ent places on the ProtreO grade alone" Prince said. There are as many, if not more on the Cottonwood grade, though I did not try to keep count of them"
