Famous Murder Trial Called il

Preside.
MUCH INTEREST FELT
The Killing of Berry Family Oc-
Cured on June 3.
Was Result of Bitter Feud
Among Ranchmen.

Norton. Kan, Feb. 2.-The trial of
the three Dewey ranchmen, charged
with numbering three members of the
Berry family on the Rawlins- Cheyenne
counties border on June 8, 1903,, was
called today in the Norton county dis
trict court before Judge Geiger. 1t is
the most important case ever set on the
docket and was brought here on
change of venue from st. Francis.
There is some disposition to think that
a further continuance will be secured
by one side or the other, probably the
defense, and that the hearing of the
case will be delayed still further. The
defendants, Chauncey Dewey, w. J.
