In the arrest of the two brakemen at
Fargo for the alleged robbery and muir
der of a West Superior man, the jury in
their investigation found nothing that
would warrant them in holding the
brakeman Erickson and released him.
They did not formulate their verdict,
taking an adjournment subject to the
call of the coroner. The man Jenkins
and the remains of his fa~ther-in-law,
Howard, were sent to West Superior.
Jenkins stated that he thought the YER
dict, or rather the action of the coroner's
jury, "a the most peculiar and chilly
proposition he ever ran up against. He,
stated positively to a Fargo Call reporter
that he thought the brakeman was the
man that did the robbing, but would not
swear to it, for the reason that Erickson
had shaved, changed suits of clothes and
had slicked up considerably. He feels
that the coroper's jury fell short of doing
their duty.
