GRAND FORKS, N. D., July 12.-
Judge Morgan, of DEVILS Lake, wired
Sheriff Fadden that a body of de-
termined Cando citizens would arrive
here tonight to take Baumberger back
with them; that they meant besiness
and the sheriff should be prepared.
Sheriff Fadden. fearing trouble, con-
cluded to remove him from the city and
left about o'clock with the prisoner
without informing any one here of his
destination, crossed the river south of
the city and tagged an eaSt-bound
Northern Pacific train, which took
them to Winnipeg junction, where
the sheriff and prisoner are
stopping tonight. When the Great
Northern east-bound train arrived to-
night large crowd were again waiting
at the depot to meet the expected
avengers, but the party from Cando bad
not come for the purpose of lynching
hGl nri hn fn hn oh
protect him in taking him back to
Towner county for preliminary trial.
The party included County Judge
Thompson, County Auditor Main, Sher-
if McCune, County Commissioner Cur
rie, Capt. Atkins, of the militia, and
twenty-five leading citizens of Towner
county. Towner county people feel
they are entitled to the speedy trial of
the prisoner in that county, and object
to his being taken out of Cando. At
Devils Lake today they urged Judge
Morgan to call special term
of court within three weeks to
try the prisoner in October.
After the PARTY arrived here tonight to-
night to demand that the prisoner be
returned there for trial, an d finding the
prisoner gone, kilograms were sent out
III every direction to intercept the sher-
lff. who was finally located at Winnipeg
junction. Communication with the
prisoner by wire developed the fact that
he was willing to return to Towner
county for trial. 1t is believed that
Judge Morgan, on learning this. will
order special term of court at once
If he does, the prisoner will be taken
back tomorrow for immediate prelim-
mary hearing and trial. OF the result
there is little question.
