the setting up Of court Of human

,NEW COURT NEARING PEMDS

Verona. N. D., April 5.-(R)-Con-
tending that the murderer OF Hans
Bjone, local banker. is still at large
and that the conviction Of Francis
Tucker on q first-degree murder
charge was q tragic miscarriage OF
Justice, John Magill Of this city Is
making q strenuous fight to obtain .
new trial for the convicted man.
A Jury last year found Tucker
guilty Of Staying the banker, with
whom he always had been friendly.
Masill, his brother -in-law, contends
that tucker Was caught in . web Of
circumstantial evidence which. be-
cause Of q high feeling Of prejudice
which existed In the county at the
time Of the trial. resulted In his con-
viction.
The case was appealed to the SUI
preme court, which upheld the decl-
sion Of the lower court, but IN appli-
cation for q new hearing In the SUI
preme court still u pending. Magill
Is confident that. II . new trial Is
granted, Tucker win be acquitted.
Anti-Tucker Feeling Passes
Feeling in Ia Noure county re-
RardinR the case has died down
somewhat, he says. and the high tide
Of. feeling against Tucker has been
reached and passed.
One Of the most important points
| in the evidence against Tucker was
the states Investigation Of his finAn-
ciai affairs. The contention was that
Tucker was "hard-up" Immediately
preceding the murder and theft OF
%. 900 from the hank, and that short
time later he was apparently wei
supplied with money.
Magill has investigated this phase
Of the case thoroughly, Is he has 9TH

that the county ana state official
who investigated the Bjone murder
and prosecuted Tucker, fixed upol
the idea Of prosecuting Tucker Ia Or
