On Trial for Fiendish Crime.

A dispatch from Lewistcwn says the
trial Of Ole Nordahl, charged with the
murder of Mrs. Bertha Schleuter on
January IS last at her ranch on the
Musselshell, was begun in the district
court Monday morning, Judge E. K.
Cheadle presiding. After securing q
jury, the prosecuting attorney pro.
ceeded to outline the evidence that will
be presented.
It would be shown, it was announced,
that Nordahl was an intim ate friend
Of the Schleuter family prior to Mr..
Schleuter's death, early last winter,
that afterwards he made improper ad-
vances to the widow and her eldest
daughter; that in January the widow
had told q neighbor who was coming
to town of Nordahl's misconduct, and
asked him to report it to the authori-
ties and secure protection for her.
The Schleuter house was burned on
the night of January Is, the bodies of
Mrs. Schleuter and the three children
being found in the ruins the next day,
all SO badly burned as to make the
Identification of even the mother diff
cult. Foot prints were found leading
away from the rea door, they having
been made by a person wearing two
left overshoes.
1t would be shown that Nord ahl's
o%vershoes we're both lefts and fitted
these imprints: that they had blood
on them, as did the defendants over
alls and other articles of wearing ap.
parel: that the overalls were damp
with kerosene when found q few days
after the tragedy; that coal oil had
been freely used in causing the intense
fire that destroyed the little ranch
home and almost destroyed the bodies.
Other links in the chain connecting
Nordahl with the crime would be de.
velODed,
