Judge Fisk yesterday denied the
application of Bosard & Bosard and
e. r. Sinkler, the attorneys of f.. Il.
Bascom, accused of the murder of
Byron Stoddard, at Langdon, for an
order admitting the defendant to bail.
The application was made on several
grounds, the principal one being that
the defendants health was not good
and the confinement in Jail was hav-
ing serious effect. This is the third
time that the efforts to secure bail for
Bascom failed. Application was
made to Judge Kneeshaw first He
refused to grant the order admitting
the defendants to bail and application
was then made to the supreme court.
The supreme court sustained the low
er court.
The trial of S. L. Hartzell, who is
alleged to have fired the shot which
killed Stoddard, will begin next
Tuesday at Pembina. In case he is
acquitted there will be no chance to
convict Bascom, it is the general
opinion. Hartzell will plead self de-
tense and justifable homicide. Grand
Forks Herald, Jan. 5.
A telegram came to Audubon Sun
day stating the trial was put Off till
