Judge Barnes appeared and asked
Deputy Sheriff Peters, who was ir
charge, to delay the execution. He
said he had just been employed in the
case and would attempt to prove his
client insane. A stay to 1880 O'CLOCK
was granted to permit the lawyer tc
appeal to the courts.
At noon Peters announced from the
gallows:
''Mueller's attorneys applied for g
