$500 BAIL MONEY IS
SUBJECT OF DISPUTE

Serious complications seem likely to
develop out Of the payment of $500
recently posted with the county clerk
to insure the appearance of H. "A.
Gowdy, indicted for forgery in the sec
ond degree. E. L. Sutton, an attorney
formerly Of this city and now Of Minot,
will be asked to explain.
Gowdy was indicted two terms ago.
Bail aggregating $500 in cash was fur
nished by a certain woman and put up
by Fred Ayers, attorney of record for
the defendant. Yesterday upon motion
of Assistant County Attorney Wilson,
Judge G. B. Elliott nolled the case
against Gowdy. -
At this time E. L. Sutton, brother
in-law Of the defendant, appeared and
obtained from Judge Elliott an order
directing the clerk to pay over the bail
money to H. A. Gowdy or his attorney,
E. L. Sutton. This order was pre-
sented, the money handed over and Mr..
Sutton went back to North Dakota
Now comes Fred Ayers, at the request
of the woman who furnished the money,
with a receipt and asks for the money.
1t had already been paid out and there
is trouble in the air. Mr.. Ayers has
demanded the return Of the $500 from
Sutton. 49,.

Ireland's authority In ordering the
transfer of Father Harrison is upheld,
and will be eligible to appointment IN
the first vacancy in parish OF equal
rank with st. Joseph's.
The decision settles a rather bitter
controversy. Early last spring st.

parish, had well under way a project
to build a new church. 1t had $70,00U
contributed and other pledges. that IN,

Archbishop Ireland, who was planning
a new cathedral for St. Paul, decided
that it was for the interest of the
church to combine the two plans and
to merge St. Joseph's parish with that
of the cathedral Father. Harrison
entered a strenuous protest in which nc
was supported by a strong. element il
his church. This attitude resulted IL
