A TRANSFER WAS MADE
Will O'Rorke Sells Out Interest in
Barrett Candy Factory to Miss
Bessie Carroll,

Announcement was made in business
circles today of the completion of a
deal which marks a change in the firm
doing business under the name of the
Barrett Candy company.
Miss Bessie Carroll, daugher of Con-
tractor ]. M. Carroll has purchased the
interest of Will O'Rorke, who some
time since, with William Barrett,
bought out the entire business of J..
T. Barrett. The firm will not change
its name, but will continue it's business
as the Barrett Candy company. The
change practically went into effect on
Dec. 1, but the deal was not fully COM
pleted until today.
That the new firm will continue in
the enjoyment of a good business goes
without the saying.
Mr.. O'Rorke's reason for selling is
that he may devote his entire time and
attention to his law studies in the
North Dakota college of law.

TANNING OF THE sAREW"
1t Was Read by Prof. Koch Of the
University to Law Students in
Public Library.

"The Tanning of the Shrew" was read
by Prof. Koch of the University be-
fore the members of the law school
in the Carnegie library auditorium
Wednesday evening. Despite the fact
that the night was a stormy one, the
auditorium was we'll filled, and all
present were we'll satisfied. "The
Tanning of the Shrew," in the reading
of which Prof. Koch takes thirteen diff
ferent parts, is a comedy of old Eng
land, we'll known by all. His work
was good, and brought forth applause
at numerous times.
There are four acts to the play, and
between each act, the Prairie State
Quartette rendered selections. All the
numbers were we'll received, and the
quartette proved its right to the repu-
tation it has gained since coming be-
fore the public.

CHARACTERIZED As
A VERY funny
STORY
That There Will be Anything
Sensational in the Murphy
Case.
CHANCES FOR NEW TRIAL
Seems to be Very Doubtful
Richardson Says There is
Nothing to It.
CHANCES FOR NEW TRIAL

That there will be anything sensa-
tional in the allegations Of the attor-
neys for the defense in the Murphy
case in the event that Judge Pollock
denies the motion for a new trial and
the case is taken to the supreme
court, is denied by Assistant States
Attorney Richardson, one of the at
torneys for the defendant in the cele-
brated case. Attorney Richardson
stated that the arguments on motion
for new trial, If such arguments
are made, will be strictly upon legal
points.
The statement that Judge Pollock
called Major Murphy and Judge Lau-
der to the court house on the night
that the jury brought in the verdict
and stated to the defendant and his
counsel that he would call the jury in
within a few minutes and discharge
them is regarded not only untrue but
ridiculous.
Judge Pollock refused absolutely to
be interviewed regarding the alleged
charges, stating that his comments in
legal matters were made from the
bench in open court and not through
the columns of a newspaper.
The story that there would be
sensation was printed in the Fargo
Forum last night and is as follows:
Fargo Forum: A senation is prom
Used when Judge Lauder and other at
torneys representing Maj. ]. 8. MUIR
ply of Minot, ask for new trial of
the case.
In the event that Judge Pollock de-
mics a motion for a new trial, the
case will be appealed to the supreme
court on error and it will be in the bill
of particulars that allegations will be
made against Judge Pollock which
border on the sensational.
According to the attorneys for the
defendant it was given out today that
an allegation will be made that Judge
Pollock called Major Murphy and
Judge Lauder to the court house at 8
o'clock on the night that the jury
brought in the verdict and stated to
the defendant and his counsel that he
would call the jury in within a few
minutes and discharge them.
1t will be charged by the defense
that Judge Pollock went to the jury
room and interrupted their delibera-
tons and inquired of the jury If it
was ready to report. Upon being in
formed that it was not, Judge Pollock
is alleged to have said to the jury,
'Well then 1 bid you good night"

damages for. false Imprisonment, was
dismissed at Langdon yesterday.
1t Is very probable, said Tracy

another action for similar amount
on the same grounds will be started
against U. L. Burdick, cashier of the
Munich State bank.
The case was dismissed Yesterday
on motion Of Tracy Bangs, attorney
for the plaintiff after both Waldo and
Burdick had testified that the arrest
OF Schroeder, on which grounds the
action was started, was caused by
Burdick and not Waldo. These two
men were placed on the stand by the
plaintiff, and when these facts were
brought out Mr.. Bangs asked for a

The case of Schroeder VS.. Waldo
was started something like a year ago.
Schroeder claimed that Waldo had
caused him to be arrested on a
charge of obtaining goods on false
pretenses. Waldo is a merchant of
Munich, Cavalier county. The testi-
mony introduced yesterday showed
that the arrest had been caused by
U. l.. Burdick, cashier of the Munich

fact while on the stand.
