DR.. DUMAS APPEAL IS
BEFORE SUPREME.
COURT
Arguments Being Made To-
~day-Appeals from New
Trial Denied.

Arguments in the appeal of DIR. Del
bert F. Dumas from the order of
Judge W. S. McClcnehan. denying a
motion for a new trial OF the indict-
ment for attempt to commit arson in
the third degree. in connection with
the store at Puposky. in Beltrami
county. were heard today in the su-
Minneapolis represented DIR. Dumas
and Alexander l.. James. assistant at
torneN general. appeared for the state.
Dumas, at that time mayor of Cass
Lake, was convicted largely upon the
testimony of Martin Behan. who, with
Mike Davis. a notorious criminal,
entered the store, but before attempt
ing to carry out their plans, were driv-
en- from the place by the fire of the
witness was Robert D. Smyth. man
ager of the store in Puposky. who tes-
titled that he had arranged with DR..
Dumas to burn the building. Dumas
was to furnish h men for the work.
Behan testified that DR.. Dumas had
met himself and Mike Davis in a sa-
loon in Bemidji and there laid out the
piled Mike Davis with a %evolver. nit
~roglycerine for blowing a safe and had
promised each of them 500. Dumas
contended that evidence failed to
prove, as a matter of law. that an at
tempt had been committed: hat no
overt acts We're done toward the COM
pletion of the crime and hat all the
acts by h defendant or his agents
were merely PREPARATION for the CON-
pletion Of the crime.
The state. in his brief filed yester-
day by the attorney general, argues
that the defendant had done every
thing in his power to complete his
share of the crime. THE evidence on
the part of the state went further
than a mere solicitation on the part
of the defendant to commit a criminal
act. and from the first solicitation of
Smyth to have his building, as the
defendant supposed. burned at Pu-
posky. down to the entry of Davis and
Behan into the building and their
shooting and their fight, were many
acts done by the defendant and his
agents all tending toward the compile
ton of the crime" the brief says. land
which would have resulted in the com
pleted act II the same had not beer
frustrated by the officers of the law
The brief concludes ttat the defend
ant had left no stone unturned for the
completion of his act.
