Roseau, Mimi, Aug. 8.-The third day Of the
trial Of Alexander Mckenzie for the murder Of
John Stewart ended with but eight jurors Sc
without incident or excitement. The defendant
made motion for continuance Of the case
when it, was called on Monday, but the court
denied this motion.
The attorneys for the defense then created
some excitement by requesting the court to al
low them to withdraw on the ground that the
court had tied their hands so they would
not be able to do Justice to the defendant,
they not having had time to prepare for trial.
The court denied their request and ordered
them to proceed. This request was made by
William J. Brown Of Warren, Mimi, on be-
half Of himself and his associate, r.. n. Medi-
craft.
In the course of his argument Mr.. Brown
stated to the court that If the item of expense
was taken into consideration that he would pay
from his own pocket every cent Of expense the
court would be put to or the county by such
an adjournment The court thanked Mr.. Brown,
but ignored his Offer This is considered by
many to be a grandstand play for sympathy
from the jury, as it is known that Mr.. Brown is
acting under an appointment from the court,
and that the defendant has no money whatever
to pay his attorneys A challenge was inter
posed to the regular panel Of jurymen and the
state admitted the challenge.
The defendant, Mckenzie, Is charged with
killing John Stewart in March of this year at
the town of Palmville in Roseau county, for
Tue purpose OF obtaining $4OO which 1t Is known
Stewart had about that time. Mckenzie is
about q years of age, has a good physique,
dark brown hair and blue eyes. He takes great
interest In the proceedings and laughs heartily
over the amusement which is afforded thru the
examination Of jurors: In the proceedings to-
day his laugh could be heard above all others
over the following incident:
q. Do you understand who the defendant is
in this case?
A. Yes, sir.
| Q. Who do you understand the defendant
! to be7
A. One of the lawyers, suppose.
=. Well. do you have any serious intention
of convicting one Of us?
!: A Well, I suppose will have to II the
witnesses says you is guilty.

SLEEPY EYE, AINN.-Oharley Levan, a
tramp was given ninety-day sentence by
Judge eesehwind today, on a charge Of petit

from his cell by Chief Jacobsen and placed in
the inside corridor, where 1t was thought he
would be safe until his hearing. He reached
thru the bars and turned the key in the lock.
letting himself into the outside corridor. He
expected to escape thru the transom over the
optide door, and wrote Chief Jacobsen a note
in which he said, GOOD bye, chief. Keys In
the jungle"
People passing the Jail soon put this tdes
cages and into the corner, thinking that when
the police came to get him and not being able
to find him., would perhaps leave the door open
and he would in this manner escape.
When Jacobsen went after his man for the
hearing, he was nowhere to be found and many
asserted that they had seen person of re.
vans description take an outgoing freight train
All the police in the surrounding vicinity were
notified. About 10 o'clock another search Of the
