Whether or not drunken man is
responsible for his acts may be the
question for the jury in the Dale
murder trial to determine. In out
lining the defense Just before noon,
Attorney W. M. Peterson for the de
fendant stated that Dale would de
clare on the stand that If he killed
either Mr. or Mrs. Charles Ogllvy
that he had no remembrance what
ever of It and that he did it while
so Intoxicated that he was not re-
i sponsible.
The picking of the jury was com
pleted at 11 o'clock this morning
i and the opening statements conclud
ed by noon so that all was in readi
ness for the taking of testimony this
afternoon. The Jurors will not be
kept confined In the jury room be
tween sessions of the court, the at
torneys agreeing to permit them to
separate. However, Judge Phelps
gave strict Instructions to them to
refrain from all discussion of the
case,
District Attorn.y Stelwer In his
opening statement declared that tha
state would offer as proof of the de
fendant's guilt, testimony showing
that Dale went to the Ogllvy ranch
on the night of the murder, the dy
ing declarations of Mr. Ogllvy which
fix the blame upon the accused, his
revolver which was found near the
Ogllvy place and other bits of evi
dence tending to show him the mur
derer of the old couple.
The story as told by Mr. Ogllvy on
hfs deathbed and as outlined by the
district attorney to the Jury. Is sub"
stnntially as follows. Dale rode up
to the Ogilvv ranch about dark on
I evenlnir last snrlnsr He was in an
intoxicated condition, nnd. dismount-1
lng. approached Mrs. Ogllvy who
was on the back porch. Mr. Ogilvy
was himself in the milk house a few
feet away and heard his wife tell the
defendant that he was drunk and
that he should go home to his wife.
He heard the defendant curse her
nnd then heard a shot. Hushing ou
he saw his wife swaying and he rush
ed to her, catching her in his arms
Just as she was falling. At that In
stant Dale piaeed the muzzle of the
revolver against his side and fired.
Mr. Ogilvy fell but in a few minutes
was able to crawl In the house and
ii 1 1 the stairs where he kept a rme.
He could not find the rifle but.
looking out the window, saw Dale
ride away. He went back down
stairs and crawled Into bed after
first writing on a calendar. "Le
Dale shot us both."
There was nobody else at the Og
llvy1 ranch at the time but about
midnight James Stubblefleld. thf
hired man. returned and retired In
a tent only i few feet from where
the body of Mrs. Ogllvy lay. He
discovered the body the next morn

LONDON, Oct. 4. The struggle for
Dvinsk is turning to the advantage of
the Husslans, according to a Petrograd
official statement. The German
drive for this highly strategic point
apparently lacks the forcefulness
which marked the early stages of the
fight. The statement claimed a re-1
pulse of the Teuton offensive In the
Dvinsk region about the railways
southwest of Illouket. The Teutons
have evacuated Allja.

LONDON, Oct. 4. Russia Is ex
pected to make war on Bulgaria to
morrow, thus plunging Into the world
struggle the thirteenth nation. Her
ultimatum to Bulgaria expired at t
o'clock. New York time, today. That
Bulgaria will either ignore the Rus
sian demand to send away the Teu
ton officers directing mobilization
and openly break with Russia's ene
mies, or will answer with an evasion,
is the belief here. The Russian am
bassador at Sofia Is prepared to leave
the country tonight, turning over
his country's interests to the repre
sentatives of a neutral country.
Greece's entry on the allies' side
will follow such a move, although It
may be delayed a few days. Inasmuch
