The expense of this, Colonel Baker sald he expects to have charged up to the state, but whether the county | will be able to recover is another question, | INDIAN'S BODY ON SANDBAR Hint of Possible Murder Near Onhwa and Companion i Held. | | ONAWA, Ia, Nov. 10.—(Speclal)—The | badly decomposed body of James Milton, | a weaithy Indlan of the was found on a Missourl Friday afternoon.
