Special to The Journal,
Moorhead Mimi. Jan. 1.-THE task of seeur-
ing jury for the trial of DR.. R. 7. German of
GAINESVILLE, charged with having killed James
Gallagher at that place last August, COM
pleted yesterday, and the following witnesses
were examined by the state: Dennis W. Tulley,
John F. Broostin, W. J. Darcy, Mrs. Elizabeth
Gallagher, the widow, Edward Lancaster, a
boarder of the Gallaghers, who is said to have
been in the room where the murder took place;
Adolph Oltmanns, Bert T. Rounds, Felix e. Kies-
elbach and G. NJ Severance, the police officer
who found the body.
No attempt was made yesterday to connect DR..
German with the crime except that one witness
testified to seeing German, Engels and Gala
CHER in Engels' saloon at II o'clock on the
night that Gallagher died 1t is probable the
trial will take at least three days.
The body Of James Gallagher was found In
the rear Of Engels' saloon and marks in the
dirt and on the walk indicated that it had been
dragged there. At the coroner's inquest it was
found that Gallagher had been intoxicated the
night previous, and this was taken to be the
cause of death. The coroner, however had sus
picions and sent the stomach to Professor Care
of the state university, state chemist who found
evidence Of morphine. Shortly afterward DR.
German, who was preparing to leave the city
was arrested and held to the grand jury on thu
charge of causing the death Of Gallagher.

LIVELY BRIDGE SESSION
Relation of City and Railroads to Repairs
Causes Discussion.

A Joint meeting of the council COM
1nittees on railroads and roads and
bridges was held yesterday afternoon In
the course of which heated dispute
arose between City Attorney Tiealy and
Alderman Van Nest on one side, ana
Il. T. Chamberlain on the other, concern
ing the rebuilding of the Northern Pa
cific bridge at University and Twenty
ninth avenues NE.
Mr.. Healy said he had been unable to
get a stipulation from the Great North
ern that it would not take advantage OF
the city in legal way if the Northern
Pacific should be released from its snare
in building the bridge.
Mr. Chamberlain then pointed out that
four years ago a contract was signed
between the city and Northern racine
to have a certain number Of bridges built
and that no more were to be built for
ten years. He stated that the contract
had six years more to live, and this led
to pointed remarks by Mr.. Healy and
Mr. Van Nest until Chairman Chatfielo

HOD CARRIERS WANT MORE
Think They Should Demand IS Instead
of 20 Cents an Hour. ...

Eugene 'Ryel, vice president Of local
union No. IA, addressed the international
hodcarriers' convention last night, agi-
tating a move for a wage scale of %
cents an hour, all advance of cents over
the scale allowed by the arbitration COM
mittee in the building strike Of 1908. 1t
is improbable that any direct action will
be taken.
The arbitration agreement between the
building laborers and contractors ends
April 1, and it is thought by International
President Lill1en. Of Chicago, that a new
agreement will be made amicably, as it
is understood that the unions will draw
up their terms and that the employers
will offer theirs, and, if an agreement is
not reached Immediately, committee will
be able to decide all questions.
The entertainment planned by unior
No. IA proved to be a grand success. AT
ter the vaudeville performance anc
speeches, refreshments were served.
