BOUND OVER
TO DISTRICT COURT

Aberdeen, Sept. 1.-THE hearing
Of James Schmidt, charged with the
murder of Ross c. Farrar, q C. & N
w. brakeman, in municipal court
ended last evening. when by order OF
the court he was held for trial in cir
cult court on the charge Of murder
the amount of bail to be fixed later.
The courts order came after the
defense had made = strong effort to
show that the defendant had shot in
se,f defense. The last witness to be
called by Attorney Van Syke for the
defense was Jim Andrew Gleason, q
lad II years old, who claims German,
Tex, for his home. Gleason asserted
that he was standing on the steps Of
the passenger coach at the rear end
OF the freight train when he heard
shot in one of the box cars up
ahead.
Previously Gleason had been in q
box car with some other men and had
asked Farrar if he could pay his fare
Farrar told him, he said, to go back
and see the conductor, which he did
But while standing on the steps OF
the coach he heard q shot and in about
minute saw Schmidt jump out of the
box car he had just left, and start
lodging back and forth, part of the
time under the car and once in awhile
peeking up to look into the car. He
had gun in his hand at the time
Gleason said, and he saw him fire
into the car. As nearly as he could
tell there were only two shots fired
the boy stated. He said that Schmid,
had gun in his hand when he hit
the ground after jumping out of tn.
car.
