Railroad News
MUCH RAILROAD
WORK IN SPRING
NORTH DAKOTA WILL GET ITS
SHARE, BUT THE BULK OF THE
CONSTRUCTION WORK WILL BE
DONE IN THE FAR WEST
PROSPECTS BRIGHT.

A prominent railroad man was in
the city this morning and stopped fol
a few minutes at the N. p. depot
while waiting for his trip east
He was just returning from a trip to
the Pacific coast.
81 look for a good deal of railroad
building in the far west" said he to
The Forum. There is every indication
that many of the railroads in the west
will extend their lines and build branch
roads, and the work has already been
planned.
Il do not look for any great tightness
in the money market when the spring
opens, and any railroad that can show
good securities can get all the money
for improvements it wants"
"Wiu there be much railroad build
ing in North Dakota?"
well, there is one thing certain, the
Great Northern is going ahead with
what 1t has planned, for it would never
do for it to stand still just now, after
so much work has been done. do not
know enough about the affairs of the
N. p. to be able to answer for it, but /
can say that from what have learned,
the Milwaukee win do some building
in the western part of the state. I
don't think North Dakota will suffer
much from lack of railroad building
the coming season"

HILL FAVORS
BRIDGE Plan

Williston, N. D., Jan. PA. w.
jackson in a letter to The Herld
states that while in ST. Paul last week
he presented to Louis w. Hill, prea3-
dent of the Great Northern railroad
the matter Of constructing a pontoon
bridge across the Missouri river at
this point. The plan as provided was
outlined in last weeks Herald and
contemplates the cooperation of will
liams and Mckenzie counties. the war
department, the Great Northern and
the ely of Wiliiston. 1t provides for a
dam to throw the current Of the river
to this side of the island, bridge
from this side to the island and a road
from the island to the Mckenzie coun-
ty side. Mr.. jackson in his letter
states that he found Mr.. Hill much in
terested in the plan, saying that IT
would be of great benefit to McKen-
zie county and to Williston and that
he was greatly interested in both and
wanted to do all that he could to help
them in every way. He promised to
go into the matter fully with Mr..
Hogeland, the chief engineer OF the
road, at an early date.
Mr.. Jackson also saw Mr.. Hoge-
land and went over the plan In detail
with him.
1t is estimated that $4,000 win
build the bridge complete and ready
for use.
During the past week number of
prominent Mckenzie county citizens
have been here on court matters and
in speaking of the proposition they
have without exception heartily en-
dorsed the idea and were of the
opinion that the active cooperation
OF Mckenzie county would be given
TO the movement.

pealed to the supreme court, which
| body again sustained him, holding that
the proceedings of the district court
were without the authority of law. The
court further found that the only
valid verdict rendered in the three
trials already held was the one on
Nov. 2s. 1903, which was reversed by
Judge Cowan. Moreover, the supreme
court held that the district court should
have accepted the verdict rendered on
that occasion and rendered judgment
for the minimum sentence provided by
law for murder in the second degree.
Still further, the supreme court held
that although no judgment had been
entered on that verdict the defendant
had been deprived of his liberty and
that the time for his legal imprison-
ment should date from Nov. 20, 1908.
The judgment OF the district court was
modified accordingly and the sentence
was ordered to begin as such.
However, the district court failed to
comply by modifying it's Judgment In
accordance with the order held by the
supreme court In the spring OF 1907
the defendant took out writ OF habeas
corpus in the supreme court, with the
former attorney general, Mr.. McCue,
appearing for Barry. on the charge
that the latter was being held by T. o.
Hellstrom, warden of the penitentiary,
contrary TO law and to the constitution
OF the state and of the United States.
The supreme court decided that such
matter could not be raised on writ
Of habeas corpus and the writ was
quashed ard the prisoner remanded to
the custody of the warden.
brother OF the prisoner, Thomas
Barry of Langdon, then retained the
services Of Niles g. Koffel Of Bismarck,
who looked into the details of the case
and proceeded to bring up the question
by a writ Of habeas corpus Jan. I9,
1911, they petitloned the district court
OF Burleigh county for a writ against
Warden Hellstrom. 1t was issued on
that day and made returnable yester-
day before Judge Winchester.
Warden Hellstrom made returns to
the court, bringing the prisoner Barry
with him. The warden was represented
by one of the assistant attorneys gem
eral. After the hearing OF the mat
ter, Barry was set free.
Upon hearing the order pronounced,
Barry broke down and tears flooded
his eyes. In expressing his gratitude
he said to the court:
Il thank God. and you, Judge, and
all the rest of the gentlemen for what
they have done for me-
In speaking Of the matter at the
close OF the hearing, Judge Winches-
ter later said; Il have always had my
doubts about the justice OF the impris-
onment OF Mr.. Barry and am pleased
that he has at last gained his liberty.
It has been one OF the most remark
able criminal cases ever heard In
North Dakota and the northwest, from
the fact alone that such persistent Ell
fort has been made to gain the free
dom Of the man who has spent ten
years of his life In the state prison.

said, trying to hang him, which he
had failed to do. People at the time
noticed Barry's queer behavior, and
felt he was becoming unbalanced.
The first indictment was filed Feb
II, of that year and the trial was
begun July is, following, After a
months hearing of the case the jury
returned verdict of guilty Of MUIR
der I'm the first degree, fixing the
penalty at life imprisonment Tracy
Bangs OF Grand Forks and William
Erwin of Minnesota, appeared for the
defense, while the state was repre-
scented by States Atty. w. b. Dixon
OF Cavalier county and John M Coch-
rane OF Grand Forks, who later oc-
cupied a seat on the state supreme
bench.
After Barry had been committed to
the state penitentiary in Bismarck on
Aug 81, 1901, he appealed to the SUI
preme court from judgment delivered
by the district court The appeal was
sustained, the judgment set aside and
new trial granted. The district
court was ordered to modify its judg-
ment also in conformity with the de-
nision Of the supreme court. This
was handed down Dec. 80, 1902. and
the district court modified its judg-
ment March %, 1903. Under the first
sentence Barry served from Aug. 27,
1901 to March %, 1903.
The second trial was held at Lang
don, commencing Nov. 3, 1870, Judge
Cowan presiding upon request Of Judge
Kneeshaw of the seventh district. At
that trial the defendant was rep
resented by Tracy Bangs OF Grand
Forks, u. s.. Senator Purcell Of Wah-
peton and Attorney Myers OF Graf
ton. Assisting the state was Frank M
Nye, now a Minnesota representative
in congress. The jury returned a YER
dict Nov. 2S, 1903, which found the
defendant guilty of murder in the sec
ond degree. fixing the penalty at sew
en- years In the penitentiary.
Judge Cowan refused to accept the
verdict, however. and ordered It back
to the jury with instructions to care

primary instructions. and that they
should not return or agree on any other
verdict The jury, after being out
thirty mine hours. reported stating that
It had been unable to agree. where

prisoner was remanded to jail and

the state took a change of venue, and
