Successful Bidders; He'll
strom Plans Contest

A cloud Of controversy continued
to hang low over the Bismarck arm
DRY today following the sheriff's sale
Of the building ct the Burieigh coun-
ty courthouse at 2 o'clock.
The. building was sold to G. B. Little
and Mary H. Hughes on their bid Of
l7,725.48 by Albin Hedstrom, deputy
acting In place Of Rollin WEIGH, Bur.
leigh county sheriff. The bid, ac-
cording to Alfred Zuger, representing
the successful bidders, covers the
costs Of the sale, the lien upon the
building held by the bidders, and the
lien upon the building held by the
state, which had been set ct 5000
Another bid Of 4l8,725.4S from F. o.
Hellstrom. Bismarck attorney, repre-
senting Emma Elizabeth FAlley, Law
renee, Kansas, was not allowed by
the deputy sheriff when the bidder
failed TO produce cash or its equiva-
lent.
MI. 4zuger presented = certified
check Tor 1900 from his clients to
cover the states lien, stating the
check Is the equivalent Of cash.
Hellstrom argued that the legal adj
vertisement Of the sale, published
Aug. Is. WAS faulty In that It did not
indicate how much his bid must be
and thereby made It impossible for
him to present q certified check Of
the right amount at the sale.
zuger win seek . deed to the prop
erty for his clients before Judge
Thomas II. Push. Dickinson. In the
near future while Hellstrom announc-
ed he would contest the sale.
The sale Of the arrnory was or
dered In . decree issued BY Judge
Push.
The arrnory has been bounced
about In the courts for several years
during Z contest OF ownership and

Montgomery, Mimi. Sept. 22.-tR
Five minutes after the First Ma

forced three officials and a customer
to lie on the floor. took between 81 200
and $500 and escaped after placing
their victims in the vault. They
overlooked approximately 5000.
AS q means Of protection against
bank bandits, officials OF the bank.
an affiliate Of the Northwest Ban
corporation, have held the amount Of
cash on hand to q minimum all sum-
nner. The 5000 which the raiders
overlooked was hidden In the vault.
Entering unceremoniously while
officials were making preparations for
the days business, the gunner pulled
revolvers from their pockets and
warned the officials and customers to
stick 'em up"
In the bank were John Sheehy.

ordered to get down on the floor"
while the robbers gathered all the

While MI. Sheehy was on the floor.
he turned his head slightly to .
what the bandits were doing.

Ing guard said politely Is he tapped
Sheehy lightly on the head with his
hand.
Ready to depart, the bandits told
their victims to come on and get into
the vault" The moment after the
fourth had entered. one Of the ban
dts slammed the door and apparently
tried to lock them In. The door,
however, did not lock.
After the bandits had departed.
the bank officials and customer came
out Of the vault and gave the alarm.
They ran to the outside to see what
direction the gunner had taken but.
because Of the large number Of au-
tomobiles on the street, were unable
to determine.
