STORY OF THE CRIME.

On January 3 last, William Barry,
a prosperous farmer, residing few
miles from Milton, learned that his
farm hand, Andrew Mellen, had be-
trayed his sister under promise of
marriage and that she was enciente.
Barry idolized his sister and the
knowledge of the affair made him
frenzied. He enticed Mellen into
the barn aud accused him of the Of
fense and said that he would give
him five minutes in which to pray.
At the end OF that time he gave Mel
len the choice OF being hung or hav-
ing his throat cut. Despite the
prayers and pleadings of his victim
Barry, who was very powerful man,
undertook to hang him. He was un-
able to accomplish this and go muir
dered the man by cutting his throat.
Barry Immediately gave himself up
and has since been confined in Jail.
Miss Barry lost her mind as the re-
suit of the terrible tragedy and few
weeks later died in the insane asylum
at jamestown.

SECOND DAY.

When yesterday afternoons session
closed with only two occupants in the
jury box and fourteen men out of the
special venire disposed of it was gener-
ally conceded that jurors for the Barry
case were hard to get. Implied or actual
bias were the disqualifcations upon
which the prospective jurors were as a
general thing disposed of by the defense,
the challenge more generally coming
from the attorneys on that side of the
case, The public seem to have found
out already that little of interest is to be
locked for until the work Of securing a
jury is disposed of and that the balance
of the week will be taken up in so doing
is an opinion that prevails with
good cause as the correct one.
Many from the outside have gone home
to return when it is learned that this
tedious job is finished. The court was
opened promptly yesterday morning at
$3.50 and upon Judge Kneeshaw taking
his seat the business of securing jury
was proceeded with,
The first name drawn from the box
was that of o. R. Daniels, who claimed
his exemption privilege on the grounds
of employmentin in the q. s., postal service
as postmaster at Daniels, position he
has filed for seven years. Excused.
James Mcintosh was the next juror
drawn and after lengthy questioning
proved acceptable to both sides. "Mao"
admitted that his grey hairs testified to
an age of SO years, eighteen of them hav.
ing spent in Cavalier county. His know.
ledge of the case and opinion formed had
beer solely gained through local papers.
! He had never acted as juror heretofore
and had seen Barry but once previous to
trial and had no conscientious scruples
against infiction of death penalty. One
hour after the court opened the first
juror, James Mcdowell, stepped into the
box and was given the oath.
John r. Thompson, living in the
vicinity of Soper and within eleven miles
of the scene of the tragedy. was the next
called. Knew Barry by sight. Said the
case was much talked of around there,
sentiment strongly against defendant.
Heregarded the feeling as hostile and
| one. sided. It later developed he was
acquainted with the deceased, Mellen,
andsintimate with a number subpmned
as witnesses on the case. The defense
intezposed a challenge of actual bias.
Both sides gave much time and attention

seats that had not been reserved for the
court, attorneys and jury. The notoriety
the case has gained, since early last
January, when Barry committed the
crime for which be is now on trial, is
such that the people of Cavalier county
have gathered from far and near to watch
it's progress.
It was the generally accepted belief
that the work of securing jury would
Immediately follow the usual formalities
of opening court, but developements
followed which saw the close of the
afternoon session without name being
drawn from the jury box.
Court was opened. by the sheriff at
hale past two o'clock and upon Judge
Kneeshaw taking his seat States At
torney Dickson entered from the ATTORNEYS
room in company with Attorney Jno. NJ.
Cochrane, of Grand Forks, who is to
assist him in the prosecution of the case.
Closely following the prosecutors came
the defendant's counsel, Judge Templeton
and Attorney Tracy R. Bangs. of Grand
Forks, also W. w. Erwin, of Minneapolis.
recognized as being one of the keenest
and most successful criminologists in the
northwest. The retaining of the latter
gentleman on the case demonstrates that
Barry and his friends are making every
effort possible to clear him of the murder
charged. When Barry was brought up
from the jail by the sheriff and took his
seat at the side of his counsel be looked
remarkably we'll, especially 80 for man
confined to Jail for more than seven
months. Although he manifested keen
interest in all that transpired he appear.
ed in no way i'll at ease and showed
nothing that could be described as con-
Germ or anxiety as to the outcome of the
long trial that was just starting.
] The venire Of fifty Jurors drawn this

tere was then called by Clerk of Court
Iruax, all but four Of the Jurors being
present and responding as their names
were called. Those absent arriving later,
comkng down on tho train from the
| north.
| Not until few mingtes to three o'clock
when the state rose and moved shat the
case of the State ofNoSth Dakota against
William Barry be called could the case
be considered actually started and from
that time until the adjournment was
Iceached at s.spper time, followed an
interesting and lively legal tilt, in which
the defense made desperate effort to
exclude Attorney ;Cochrane from assist.
ing States Attorney Dickson in conduct
ing the case.
.1udge Tembleten .was,Grst to address
the court with motion, in which, on
behalf of the defendant he objected to
the association OF Attorney Cochrane
with States Attorsey Dickson in cax-
ductng the1aefenses claiming that his SO
doing was not recognized by law,
whether under contract with the county
board er otherwise. s1is argument was
that the state law gave no authority to
the commissioners to make such ap-
pointmeat. He cited legal authorities in
support ct what he stated and wound up
by calling the courts attention to Sec. 9,
OF the laws of 1901, providing that the
proper party to assist in the prosecution,
if required, was the attorney general.
Attorney Bangs also touched on points
in the motion much in the order taken
by Judge Templeton.
Attorney Coehrane, in support of his
position as associate counsel with the
state undertook to show to what extent
the repeal of Section 1883 of the old code
was affected by the enactment of Section
9, Of the revised and amended laws Of
1901, which, by theway, when introduce
ed as bill in the senate had not the
attorney general" feature, with which
it was bedeeked, at the suggestion,
possibly, of that official, while in the
hands of the judiciary committee. At
tention was also directed to the final
clause of the newly enacted flaw, upon
which the defense had neglected TO place
! emphasis, and which seemed to pnrti-
cularly fit the exegencies of the case on
trial, by not making mandatory the fore
going provisions conflicting with Section
1888, of the old code in allowing the
retaining of legal assistance under
circumstances such as demanded on this
occasion.
Judge Kneeshaw denied the motion of
the defense and during recess of fifteen
minutes the prosecution revised the
order of the court authorizing the re-
tanning Of Attorney Cochrane as council.
When the court reconvened the defense
went through the formality of filing two
objections, one being against the retain
ing of Attorney Cochrane and the second
objecting TO the appearance Of States
Attorney Dickson in the case, so long
as Attorney Cochrane was employed as
special counsel. Both objections were
overruled by the court. Defence taking
exception thereto.
1t was too late to proceed with the
impannelling Of jurors when the above
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1901-07-18

argument closed and an adjournment
was taken until yesterday morning.
COURT NOTES.

The appearance and comfort of the
court room has been greatly improved
by the new arrangement Of seats for
spectators, the placing of mating in the
aisles. Also the jury box has been
transformed into a veritable haven of
rest, when compared to the accommoda-
ton formerly in vogue. One cannot
overlook, however, that dancing in the
spacious court room is q thing of the
past as the new seats are fixture.
Twenty odd applicants for final papers
we're granted citizenship between acts
and Judge Kneeshaw also found time to
grant the petition OF Thor. Finnson to
have his name changed to that of Thor.
Therfinnson.
The spectators appeared TO be with
the court to man when the motion was
oyerruled in which the defense endeavor-
ed to "talk" the state out of the employ
ing of Attorney Cochrane. With such
an array OF talent as Judge Templeton,
Attorney Tracy r. Bangs and Attorney
W. W. Erwin, who will be remembered
as having starred" the Hayward murder
case in Minneapolis, the attitude taken
certainly savored Of the dog in the
manger order.
VIM. Barry, on trial FOR bis life, certain
ly looked finer than silk, neatly dressed
and smoothly shaven. Perhaps trife
pale and a noticeable loss of flesh, but
he made good showing. No one would
take him as being the man who commit
ted the crime of January 3rd.
Those in attendance at the opening
session had no cause to complain ct hav-
ing wasted their time. The legal tilt
INDUCED in by the prosecution and
defense was we'll worth listening to.
Judge Kneeshaw by instructing the
attorneys that their challenge of in
dividual jurors had to be made before the
latter we're sworn in did away with
unnecessary delay in getting the case
before the court, which means much
when it is borne ill mind that an expense
of several hundred dollars per day is
being incurred while the case is on trial.
If the case had happened to come to
trial before Section 8 of the new laws
went into effect on July 1st, the argue
nent that took up the whole of the first
afternoon of the trial might have been
averted, but things will happen that
way.
Six balliffs were named by Judge
Kneeshaw just before the adjournment.
Special Bailiff, Frank F. Ross; door
keeper, Jas. McDougall; Peter Reid and
Jas. Mcintosh were placed in charge of
the jurors during the daytime and Jas.

THREE JURORS SWORN:
JAMES MCDOWELL.
GEORGE A. OLES.
JOHN MCLEOD.

Everybody is familiar with the gener-
ally accepted story OF the crime which
has developed and led up to the case
now. on trial. The following brief
synopsis may, however, refresh the mind
of some of our readers:
Courier Democrat. (Langdon, N.D.) 1891-1920, 1901-07-18

to this juror, but after an examination
of over two hours he was excused for
implied bias.
Emil Peterson was the fourth one
called. He lives in Billings, having
come to this country from Sweden eight
years ago. The defense questioned juror
closely il order to ascertain his know
ledge of terms that were likely to be
brought up during the trial and it was
discovered that in speaking of the de-
ceased, Melle,, the juror thought the
attorneys had reference to the defen-
dant, Barry; other instances of his in
competency we're made apparent. 1t
was evident, however, that his national
ity was largely at the bottom of the de-
fense's objection. Juror Peterson was
excused for cause and appeared glad
that he was.
William Buclzlin, of this city, was next
examined. He evidently did not wish to
serve and stated that he had 'nrmed an
opinion which would only be r~'noved by
evidence OF d very strong character.
Both sides seemed to think Mr.. Bucklin
had the qualification to make an accept
able juror, but he continued to maintain
his opinion formed previous to the trial.
A challenge interposed on the grounds OF
actual bias was allowed and juror ex-
cused. The ordeal undergone apparent
ly was somewhat longer than "Buek"
had anticipated.
The name of Thomas Robinson was
called next in order, but the juror was
excused for she day, owing to temporary
indisposition.
Geo. A. Oles, living in Gordon town
ship answered al questions in a manner
acceptable to both sides. He has gained
an impartial knowledge of the facts OF
the case through reading the COURIER
DEMOCRAT. Declared that his verdict
would be governed by the evidence
brought out for trial and had no con-
soientious scruples against capital pun
ishment. The afternoon session OF the
second day had nearly drawn to close
when Mr.. Oles was given tho oath, told
to take seat along side Of Juryman
Mcdowell in the box, making two men
accepted.
John Struthers of Olga was called
shortly before adjournment. He was
quite we'll posted in regard to the case.
had known Barry in this county for
twelve years and had an acquaintance
with the Barry boys back in Wellington
county, Ont. Had met and knew Mellen,
the deceased and apparently had formed
an opinion IS TO the case, but thought he
could give fair decision. He was still
under examination when court adjourn
ed.
COURT NOTES.
The Court: TO prospective juror, Emil
Peterson, after undergoing about an
hours perplexing examination at the
hands of the defense: "You're excused
Mr.. Peterson" Peterson: "Well, I'm
glad of that."
An acquaintance with Milton parties
on the part Of the prospective juror was
something that the defense is noted as
looking into very closely. Occupants of
the jury box from that locality are more
than likely to be scarcsr than hens teeth.
