Wallace, Idaho, Jan. 25--Convic-
ton Of Lee Foyte, former Valley
City, N. D., youth condemned to
hang for first degree murder in
Idaho, was reversed Monday by the
Idaho supreme court on the ground
of errors in the trial. Foyte was to

able that the new trial will be neid

and Carleton Fox do not contemplate
attempting change of venue, al
though they may not be ready to 90
to court in February, they state. Dis
trict court opens for the spring term
Feb. II.
New evidence not entered at the
previous trial, probability that Foyte
himself will take the stand this time
| and possibility Of insanity pleading
are rumorcd. Foytc was charged
with killing James Montgomery on
his ranch in the St. Joe woods coun-
| try near Herrick, Idaho.

PROBLEMS OF
ENGLAND AND
U. s. DIFFER
America Will Not. at Present,
Concentrate Military
Forces in Orient

Washington, Jan. %. Great
Britain's preparations for defense of
her interests in China apparently will
not be followed, for the present at
least, by an extensive concentration
Of American forces in the Orient.
President Coolidge sees wide diff
ference between the British problem
in China and that of the American
government since Great Britain has
concessions there. while the Anne rican
government has not.
Because Of that condition, the presi-
dent can see possibilities Of differ
ences in general policy, as to China,
between the two governments.
All Of this will be set forth at
length in statement soon to be is
sued by Secretary Kellogg, which will
be in the nature of a reply to the re-
cent British memorandum.
Meantime, the Washington govern
ment will use the forces it has avail
able in Chinese waters to afford pro-
lection to its nationals to the best Of
its ability.
