HEEL PLATES FORM
EVIDENCE IN CASE

Mandan, N. D., Dec. 1O.-A pair of
shoes, with odd-shaped plates in the
heels and toe plates, form the most i'm
portant link in a chain of evidence
introduced by States Attorney W. A.
earns, of Dunn county, to convict
James McGrath, on trail here in dis
trict court on the charge of arson.
McGrath had homestead near Bal
ley, N. D., which was contested by
John Sheehan, and which he lost to
the latter. Sheehan on taking over
the farm was befriended by Mrs. Mary
Rappley, who loaned him horses to
break the land. That evidence and
suggested motive for revenge wa.
brought up by the state in the hearing
yesterday as a reason Why James Nc
Grath should have set fire to the barn
on the Rappley farm, destroying it to-
gether with six head of horses and
many cattle.
Following the fire on May 8, 1914
peculiar footprints were found, which
led from the Rappley barn to the Nc
Grath home, and which were easily
discerned in the soft loan and plough
ed land. McGrath was arrested and
his home searched.
The shoes which are marked Exhibit
A, and adorn the clerk of courts desk
were found in the McGrath place, and
are alleged to fit the tracks perfectly
