He waived the examination;and was bound over to the September 'grand jury, being returned to jail to await the action of that body. . ; V ’During yesterday a ' photographertook pictures of the bottoms of Holliday’s feet and the; portraits of thesepedal extremities are; on exhibition in a show window in Ioiya City, creating imuch interest, by reason of the factthat these feet are thought to be clues to the identity of Holliday as the man who went to the house of Gallagher about a mile, from River Junction and creeping close to the bed where Gallagher and. his wife were sleeping, fired a shot that entered the head , of the slumbering man and resulted in immediate - death. The plaster casts taken of the foot prints in thesoftJSGil of the ;cornfield between the Gallagher,and the Holliday places aresaid to. correspond to the feet of theprisoner^who has soles and toes of a most, .unusual shape.: .-The prints were those of a man in his sock feet and the developments at River Junction yesterday were * that a pair of socks .with earth upon them had been found under a board in the Holliday yard. When the prisoner was asked regarding these socks he admitted they were his, but asserted he merely threw them, away. But another discovery is that he had an older and much more worn pair soaking In the house at the time, and the question naturally arises why he should throw aw;ay the better and keep the worse pair.The sheriff spent sometime yesterday at River Junction and questioned Mrs. Gallagher closely. She stoutly asserts that she knows nothing of the murder, but the people of .the junction and its neighborhood are of the opinion that, if she was not a party to it she at least knows who it was that shot her husband. Re maintains yet that she was not awakened by the shot. She has not been arrested but is being watched.A motive for the crime, if Holliday is the party guilty of it, is said to lie in his reported infatuation for Mrs. Gallagher, with whom he was seen riding at times. Whether she returned his affection is not known, but the theoryis that Tfollidav thought, he would setHE PAST WEEK WASUNSEASONABLY COOLut the Low Temperature Was Favorable for Small Grain.'he past week was unseasonably cool, 5 average daily temperature at the itral station being 12 degrees below rmal, says the weekly crop bulletin.the mornings of the 21st and 22d, frost line was reached at numer-; places, but no material damage re-ted.
