The Fargo forum and daily republican. [volume] (Fargo, N.D.) 1894-1957, 1909-06-07

After two years of searching for the
man guilty of this most heinous crime
the efforts of two Fargoans have been
rewarded, from present indications.
While United States Marshal Shea
or Head Deputy Gil j. Stout would say
nothing concerning the matter, II is
known that they have been engaged
on the case from the date of the crime,
with renewed visor during the past
five months.
HAVE THE RIGHT MAN.
That Charles Mccartney 10 the right
man that is wanted, has been essab-
Iished beyond doubt, ii is said, a
chain Of evidence connecting him,
which II will be impossible TO break.
The two officials who have worked
together on the case refuse to give
out any particulars whatever and not
until their man is brought TO trial will
they show their hand.
Working with the greatest degree OF
secrecy, the federal officials have
lodged all publicity. There has been
no snap judgments taken. With all
parties serving time the officials have
been able to deliberate. Their case
has worked out like charm and Il
Is stated that there can not be the
least doubt but that the crime which
| has haffled the shrewdest detectives.
has at last been ferreted out and that
iustice viii be done.
The three men who know OF the
murder Of Grace Burns, according to
the present theory, are Charles Me-
CARNEY, Tommy Ryan and Edward
Goodheart, alias GuIeheart, recognized
BY officers and detectives as the three
most desperate characters that have
ever been brought before court Of
justice, with whom robbery Is pas-
time. pickpocketing a pleasure, and to
which an effort will be made to add
assault, q statutory crime and most
cruel murder.
RYAN's REVENGE.
As the testimony Of Tommy Ryan
given In the federal court here last
December put Mccartney behind the
bars Of the federal penitentiary, 50 II
il believed his testimony with the very
strongest circumstantlaI evidence that
Il i possible 70 secure, viii prove Me-
Cartney most brutal murderer
When Tommy Ryan WAS brought
back 60 Fargo last fall, he was first
suspected Of the murder of little
Grace Burns. and II i believed that
through working On this clue that the
officials found who they are believed
10 be thoroughly satisfied i the guilty
party. Il i believed that il Was
Ryan's effort to shake the cloud III
suspicion from himself that brought
our the facts which have been - long
sought.
