The tronble occurred last Sun- day night just “after the moon rose,” and the Indians were . brought to Bemidji last night by Sheriff Thomas Bailey, Assistant County Attorney C. A. Pitkin - and Coroner E. H, Marcum. The three officials made a trip to the ageney yesterday morning, held . an inquest and placed the mem- bers of the party under arrest, The crime is not laid gt the - door of any vne of the [ndisns, although the Sioux, Crazy Dog, isaccused by the others with having struck the blow, but all will be given a hearing before a justice, and one or possibly more will be bound over to the grand jury. The coroner’s jury found that the squaw came to her death through the instrumentality of {someperson to the jury unknown. The party, including Crazy Dog, who is married to_ a sister of the dead woman, were camp- - ing a mile and a half east of the reservation pear Island Lake.

The party. claimed they were unable to put out the flames and that the v;ctlm \|eurned to death. -The following day the Indians :sens the body into town and then Agent Daniels went out and took the six into custody. The party showed the utmost contrition for their spree and the bereaved sister threw herself across the dead body and wept jas a white woman might have - done.
