OFFICER CONNOLLY'S
SLAYERS BELIEVEDTO
BE UNDER ARREST
Two Indians Arrested at Whitefsh Charged With
Shooting Sheriff Baney Said by Associate
To Be Men Wanted; Are Charged With
FIold-ups and Other Crimes.

With the arrest at Whitcfish Wcdnes-
day Of Peter Little Plume and Frank
Gilstrap. believed to be the men who
on the morning of August , murdered
Patrolman Frank Connolly Of the Great
Falls police force. there ended a search
that began with the police department
and Sheriff ]. r. Burns nearly three
weeks ago with the dropping of re
mark by a drunken. halfbreed Indian.
Gilstrap and Little Plume were taken
into custody at Whitefish after one of
them had. few hours before, shot and
dangerously wounded Sheriff Baney Of
Lincoln county at Eureka. Little Plume
is a full blooded Piegan Indian and
Gilstrap is quarterbreed Cherokee.
Connection. in the minds of the police
and sheriff Of Gilstrap and Little Plume
with the Connolly murder was due to
quarrel between Gilstrap and an Indian
half breed who is referred to by the
police as John Doe. Gilstrap lived at
1920 Eighth avenue north Great Falls.
and doe" boarded with him. A quarrel
over a board bill, threat by Gilstrap
and failure of the men to cure their
differences caused Doe to leave Great
