on tho Law
EP. Dole, who defended Newell s. Barr,
the Whatcom gun-trap setter, from q
charge Of murder. returned home Thurs
day evening. The verdict of the jury ind
ing Barr guilty Of murder in the second
degree was not surprise to him. although
he says the verdict should be, and will be
10 the end, an aoquittal.
"Whiie / do not wish to accuse Judge
Vim of any unfairness." said Mr.. Dole
yesterday, II do not see how. under his
Instructions. the jury could have returned
adifsrent verdict. Barr - o woodchopper
and lived In cabin on the outskirts OF
Nhatcom.a When he went away he set
gun il his cabin In such q manner that
any one endeavoring to burglarixe the
premises would be shot. John Erickson
tried to break into the place one stormy
night and was killed. There was no
dsnisl as to the facts all: We pleaded for
the defense the law on the questions in-
Vowed. There have only been four or 1--WE
eases of tho kind in the United States and
cited two cases directly in point--one
from Kentucky about sixty years ago and
anore recent one from Connecticut. In
both cases Il was held that man had
night g. set trap gun TO protect his prop
srsy. All old English cases sustain the
right.
The court, however, instructed the jury
In effect that If Barr set the gun with the
malicious aud deliberate intent 10 XIII
whoever nigh. enter IL would be murder
In the FIRST degree. second degree or man
Slaughter, according as the act was deisber-
ale, p.emeditatsd or otherwise, unless
nader the circumstances he would have
been justified in the killing, and that he
must be found guilty IL the attempt to
eatcr the cabin was not for the purpose OF
robbery. or, even if it was for the purpose
Of robbery, the defendant could have
avoided tia loss of his goods by any means
Snort of taxing human life. The court de-
eansd 70 give any Of the instructions sub
nis'ea el.heF by the prosecution or the
eeisase. but gave many of them in sub

Mr.. Dole saws that while Of the time OF
NE killing of Erickson the people were very
much pgeigd,ced against Barr, at the con-
euslon o. the trial the sentiment was In
