The case of Bd^dler & Robinson vsws? the Coe. Commission Co. was not com-, pleted when district court adjourned last night,'and was resumed this morn ing. It will probabta reach the jury early this afternoon, when the case of Clara Logan vs. Georae W. Freerks, Martin Freerks and A.) J. Bessie will be taken up, The plaintiff in this siftf .sues to re cover judgment for $j,SOoA She alleges in her petition that in 1901 the defend ants were engaged in'the practice of law in Fargo and WahpetQn that they were retained to' detend' Allen I. Bfanchajd, who had been arrested on a criminal charge. Allen's bail was fixed at $1,500 and sne being a friend of the accused put up the cash to secure his release, receiving receipts for her money for thp purpose applied, the mdney to be re turned to hew when the bail was exoner ated. Several days before court con vened Blanchard wan surrendered to the sheriff and the bail duly exonerated. The accused went to trial, was convict ed and sentenced to serve a term in the penitentiary. The woman then made a demand on the attorneys for her cash bail and was refused. The. complaint further charges the defendants with con. verting the money to their own use. The defendants deny the allegations ,of the' plaintiff's petition. In their an swer they state that they were employed by Mrs. Logan to defend young Blanch ard and in the progress of the defense the money was all used, save $107.75, which they are now and always have been ready to turn over to her.
