HEYBURN RECEIVES
WARNING LETTERS
Detectives Still Working on the Steunenberg
Case and Tightening the Coils.
Chicago, Jan. 11.—A dispatch to
the Tribune from Washington says:
Some alarm is felt by the friends
0 * ^ enator Heyburu of Idaho over
a number of threatening letters re
ccived by him in the last lew
months. For a time the senator
and his friends, with whom he has
discussed the matter, were inclined
to look upon the threatening mis
sives as the work of harmless cranks,
hut since the assassination of for
mer Governor Steunenberg more
importance is attached to them.
Threatening letters also have
been received by Representative
John Cheney, who appeared as the'to
attorney of 1 iovernor Steunenberg
before a congressional committee
at the time it was investigating the
Idaho mining troubles.
Senator lleyburn has expressed
the opinion that the state author
ities of Idaho ought to take decided
steps to apprehend the writers of
the threatening letters.

heading across to the St. Joe and
down that stream to Coeur d'Alene

Toy Wing Goes to Pen.
Toy Wing, the notorious China- j
man, captured by Inspector C. K. 1
Andrews, has been taken bock to
the penitentiary at Boise to serve
out the remaining six years of his
seven years sentence.
A full account of Toy Wing's
notorious record appeared in the
Herald a few weeks ago, including
his capture here at Bonners Ferry
by Chinese Inspector Andrews, on
a charge of unlawful entry into this
country. While in custody he was
I identified as an escaped convict,
' havinc eluded the officers of the
[territorial penitentiary 21 years
! ago.
The federal officers turned him
over to the state authorities. When
he has served his lime, he will be
a subject for dej>ortation, under
the charge for which Insjsjctor An-j
drew? made the nrro?t.
!
developments of the week with re
gard to this mysterious individual
are the facts of his identification
by Sheriff Edward Bell, of Teller
county, Colorado, as the man want
ed for blowing up the depot at In
dependence and the killing of 14
non-union miners, and the further
fact that the Western Federation
of Miners with headquarters at
Denver have announced that they
would defend Orchard, and have
asked the Silver City union to
procure counsel for him. These
facts, together with Orchard's
astounding declaration that if the
news of his arrest had been wired
the Spokane papers, a lawyer
would come from that city to de
fend him, and the fact that a law
yer did start at once from Spokane,
without Orchard's request, makes
the case highly sensational. Fred
Miller, the Spokane attorney, is
now at Caldwell, working for the
defense of Orchard. He gives no
explanation as to why his client
should make such a remarkable
statement, which one would think
he would be quick to do in the in
i terust of his client, if ho had any
j satisfactory statement to offer,
i 1 hat the full facts will eventually

Troy Bandit not Drowned.
KalispiU.l, Mont., Jan. 8. For
a crime committed in Troy on
Thursday, Jan. 4, William Heard,
a youth cf 19, was today sentenced
to Deer Lodge penitentiary for five
years. Heard robbed the Wood's
store and postoffice at Troy, getting
about $100 from the store, after
midnight.
He eluded a posse, swam the icy
Kootenai river twice and also cx
changed shots with his pursuers.
He made his way to Libby, 15 miles
cast, and while resting and asleep
in a hotel was arrested by a con
stable.
Heard gave up the whole game,
pleaded guilty and accompanied
the officers to Kalispell, the county
seat.
Today he pleaded guilty.

him to make a clean breast of it.
Hoard is a husky lad, with lots of
nerve, which was shown by his
swimming the Kootenai twice.

New Train tc Bonner* Ferry,
Effective tomorrow a new time
card goes into effect on the Great
Northern.
j The most important feature of
' the new card is that it provides for
j another passffhger train between
Bonners Ferry and Spokane, mak
ing three passenger trains daily
each way.
The train will be known as the
Bonners Ferry Local and will leave
Spokane at 8:00 a m., arriving at
Bonners Ferry at 12:30 p.m 4
turning to Spoka> e the Bonners
Re
^ crr y local will leave here at 1:14
p.m , arriving in Spokane at 5:45
p. m.
No. 3 under the new card is
due to arrive at 1:14 p.m., and ihe
local will run as a section of No.3.
Regular No. 3. will make no stops
between Bonners Ferry and Spo
kane, except to discharge through
passengers, the Bonners Ferry loc
al will attend to all the local bus
iness, stopping at all stations.
The Gieat Northern had a local
passenger service between Bonners
Ferry and Spokane a few years ago
and it proved a great convenience
and very popular with the public,
as no doubt this train will.

Operate Corbin Train» by Telephone
K. J. Roberts, superintendent of
construction of the Corbin line, was
in town and out on the line north
of here, several days this week.
Asked ah >ut the proposed telephone
line along the road, Mr. Roberts'
reply was, "Oh, give us time!"
"Then you really intend to con
struct such a line," was next asked.
"Yes, we shall operate our trains
by telephone," said the busy sup
erintendent. "The construction of
the line is considerably in the fu
ture then," was next suggested.
"Oh, wo can commence laying track
next week," said Mr. Roberts.
The Herald learns that while a
few miles of grade are ready for
rails on the North end, yet there is
an undercurrent of feeling among
contractors that no Corbin trai s
wil cross the Kootenai before
May 1.
