WILL TEST THE
JUVENILE LAW
Fargo Lad Who Is Charged
With Felony May Prove
Subject For Action

Fargo, n. D., Jan. ia rather pc
culiar feature arose in the case of the
bellhop at one of the hotels who is
charged by a. Brown with assault with
Il dangerous weapon. the ase having
been begun in Police Magistrate Mill
er's office on a warrant or complaint
authorized by States Attorney Fow-
Ter.
The facts of the case as alleged are
that Brown was assaulted. with a ten
inch piece of gas pipe in the hands of
the bellhop and had several cuts on
his head.
The bellhop was taken to the coun-
ty Jail and placed under fock and key
and hearin gwas set for yesterday
afternoon at $3.50 o'clock before Judge
Miller.
The state was represented by AS
sistant States Attorney Stambaugh,
and there We're several witnesses pres
ent.
There was something peculiar look
ing about the boy and Judge Miller
~interrogated him as to his age and
was astonished when the boy said
that he would be is years old in
within the age. which the law says
will give the juvenile court iurisdic-
ton in the case. He appears to be
at least 81 years old.
According to Judge Miller's inter-
probation of the law, he had nothing
else to do than turn the case over to
Juvenile Court Officer Murphy and
this was done and the witnesses were
dismissed.
Has No Power
When Attorney Murphy was called
into the case he looked into the law
and found that under the peculiar
wording Of it, a person under the
age of Is Years, who would commit
n crime from murder down, and
was turned I'VE to the juvenile officer
that officer really has n6 power,
excepting that of giving a culprit a
lecture and hat he had not power
wen to commit to Jail or make an
arrest.
Mr.. Murphy stated that in his opin-
ion it was neVed the intention to have
the law act this way, but that when
a person under IS years would COM
NIT a high felony, he should be
handled the same as any else, and
he has filed a petition to the district
court to permit the law to take it's
course in this case. He has also
asked the court to interpret the law
regulating the juvenile court and its
officer.
Under the law, it is claimed that
the juvenile officer may petition to
the court to have the culprit remand
ed to the proper authorities for hear
ing, etc.
The bellhop was permitted to depart
on his own recognizance and his case
will be taken up again in Judge Mill
.er's court this afternoon. 1t is said
that he has a defense and witnesses
declare that he vas not alone to blame
for the trouble,

BULLS GAINED
CONTROL TO-DAY
Losses in Stock Market Yes
terday Were Largely
Recovered Today

New York. Jan. 11.-Losses in the
stock market during yesterdays de-
cline were largely recovered today.
The tone was much better. Anxiety
occasioned by the Equitable fire was
removed, although h financial dis
trict did not slip back entirely into
its accustomed routine. The decision
of the governing board of the stock
exchange to relieve traders affected
by the fire from the necessity of de-
livering securities for an indefinite
period put an end to fear Of en-
barrassment on that score. although
the fact that vast quantities of stocks
and bonds were tied up in the vaults
of the ruined building served to re-
strict business.
The market became active and
strong in the latter part of the session
which had been dull after an opening
squirt. In spite of It's dullness the
list was firm throughout the day with
a constant upward tendency. Union

The monthly statement of the Unit
