REUBEN MADENWALD

MEYER SANE, IS FREED, BUT MAY FACE CHARGES
Declared sane by physicians who have had him under observation 
since March 29, Otto Meyer has been given his freedom when he 
was declared able to care for himself. Meyer was taken into 
custody by the sheriff's department following an assault upon 
Reuben Madenwald, superintendent of the county insane asylum. 
It was necessary to use tear bombs to get him out of the shack 
he calls a home and in the trouble which followed Meyer was 
wounded in the leg by a bullet. Relatives appeared in county 
court and demanded a jury trial for the man but it was agreed 
that he would remain under observation for a time. Wednesday 
the physicians in charge of the case found Meyer sane and he 
was ordered released. Whether any further action is to be taken 
in the case could not be learned today although there is a 
possibility that Madenwald may have a warrant issued on an 
assault complaint or the sheriff take action because of the 
resistance to officers. 
Meyer is a large, powerful man and is employed as a mason 
helper, having worked for John Scheurell during the last year. 
Meyer attempted to drive Madenwald from the trial(sic) orchard 
and resisted the sheriff's force when it was called.

L. MANN, MRS.

A Runaway
Last Thursday a party from this village, consisting of Mrs. L. Mann, Miss Julia 
Pierpont, Miss Clara Whitcomb and a boy for a driver, went to Manitowoc for a 
ride. Just as they were entering that city the horses attached to their carriage 
were frightened at some object in the street, and became unmanageable dashing 
madly down Sixth-street in the direction of the river.
The brave little fellow who did the driving, although unable to check the speed 
of the frightened animals, succeeded in reining them into a pile of corded wood 
just before they reached the river. Had he not done so they would have undoubtedly 
ran off the dock into the water, and all perhaps, would have drowned. As it was, 
however, when they came in contact with the pile of wood, the sudden stop smashed 
the carriage and threw the ladies violently out otherwise seriously injuring them.  
The party came home on an evening train, decorated with court-paster but in 
tolerable good spirits notwithstanding their mishap.

JUSTICE H.E. MARKHAM

STABBING AFFRAY.
Night before last a crowd of young people went for a surprise party to the 
residence of Peter Holsen about four miles out of the city on what is called 
the Herman road between the town line and plank roads.
At the close of the entertainment the boys were chipping in to pay for the 
expenses and called on Louis Betermichel to pay his share. He replied that he 
had already paid and would not give any more. In the dispute which followed 
Betermichel drew a knife and stabbed Peter Holsen of this city, slashing him 
across the face and stabbing him in the shoulder, breast and arm. Jim Hall of 
the town line road then took a hand in and knocking Betermichel down, but he 
jumped up thrust his knife in Hall's arm inflicting an ugly flesh wound, and 
then made his escape. He was followed by some of the party but eluded prusuit. 
In the morning however he was overtaken by Conrad Meyer who assuming the airs 
of a person in authority told Betermichel he was the person he was looking for 
that he was under arrest and must come with him. Meyer brought him into town 
and held him until the proper legal steps were taken. He is now lodged in jail 
where he will probably have time to find out this is not exactly a free country.
Dr. Frazer was called out to care for the wounded and says that Holsen is 
seriously wounded but will probably recover, the most dangerous cut being the 
one in the shoulder. Hall's wound is not serious.
Betermichel is a new comer having been this country but a few months.
He was arraigned this morning before Justice H.E. Markham on the charge of assault 
with intent to murder. Bail was put at $1200, in default of which he was remanded 
to jail. Examination was deferred until Saturday when it is expected the effect 
of his attack on Holsen can be more clearly determined.

ELLA MCCARTY

WEILDS KNIFE ON ONVENT SISTERS
Ella McCarty, Quincey, Ill., Runs Amuck at Silver Lake Convent Today
FIVE VICTIMS OF INJURY
Woman Overpowered and Placed Undeer Guard Until Officers Arrive – Thought to Be Insane
Weilding a knife as a weapon, Ella McCarty, an inmate of the Silver Lake convent, 
ran amuck through the institution today and before subdued had inflicted painful and 
serious injury to five of the young women who are residents of the convent, two being 
more seriously hurt than the others. The knife possessed by the woman was one which 
she secured in the kitchen of the convent and was broken, being a more dangerous 
weapon because of this fact. The crazed woman slashed at the faces of her intended 
victims and in every instance the injury is facial. One of the victims had her nose almost 
completely severed from the face. Victims of the woman's wrath were young women 
who are known at the convent as probationers and she made no attack on the sisters. 
The engineer of the convent, who was summoned, secure the woman and she was placed 
under guard pending the arrival of officers from the city who were summoned. So violent 
did she become that it was necessary to use straps to tie her and prevent her from making 
further attacks on people of the institution which she threatened to do. Though she conversed 
rationally and denied that she was insane or did not know of her actions, it is believed that 
the woman's mind is unbalanced and an examination was ordered by probate court.
Miss McCarty is a woman of probably 37 years of age and had been at Silver Lake Convent 
since early in September coming here from Quincey, Ill, seeking admission to become a nun. 
The attack which she made followed a conversation in which it was suggesed that she was to 
depart the convent. Dr. J. Meany was summoned to attend the injuries of the five who were 
victims and it is not thought that any of the number will suffer permanent injury though there 
may be some danger of blood poisoning because the knife used was an old one. The women 
was brought to the city and committed to Oshkosh this afternoon.

MRS. JAMES MCNULTY

LOCAL PEOPLE MAY SHARE IN ESTATE WORTH MILLIONS 
MRS. JAMES MCNULTY AND DAUGHTER MAY HAVE PART IN ESTATE OF THOMAS CRUSE, 
WEALTHY MONTANA MAN 
Two Manitowoc women may share in the estate of the late Thomas Cruse, millionaire mine 
owner and banker, whose death occurred at Helena, Mont., a few days ago, inquiries having 
been received from attorney’s in the west as to heirs here. The estate is said to be 
valued at more than $5,000,000 and Mrs. Cruse left no immediate family. Mrs. James McNulty, 
a pioneer resident of the town of Liberty, is an aunt of the deceased Montana man and with 
her daughter, Mrs. Joseph Brady, of this city, are probably among the heirs to the estate 
which Mr. Cruse had amassed in a life spent in the mining country of the west. It is 
understood that Mr. Cruse left no will, and in this event the estate will go to his nearest 
of kin, among whom are Mrs. McNulty and her daughter, who will probably receive a large 
share in the estate as it is not known that there are many relatives surviving. Notice of 
the death of Mr. Cruse has been received by Mrs. Brady and an inquiry will be made as to 
the estate which is represented by bank stock, bonds and ownership of mines in the west. 
Representatives of Mrs. Brady were not inclined to discuss the matter today, though it was 
said that in all probability Mrs. Brady and her mother would share in the estate. Mr. Cruse 
had been a resident of Montana for many years having located there during the early mining 
days and had amassed a large fortune. Mrs. McNulty had been in touch with members of her 
family and Mr. Cruse in late years and at his death, news was sent here. Inquiries are now 
being made by attorneys and if Mr. Cruse left no will local heirs will undoubtedly establish 
a claim to part of the estate. Mrs. Brady is the wife of Joseph Brady who conducts a milk 
route in the city.

Exaggeration of Report of Illness of Girl Led to Statement of Her
Death---Friends Here Happy to Learn Report Not True
Friends in this city will be happy to learn that reports of the death of

Duffy, who is a patient at a hospital there, though seriously ill, is

wires to Milwaukee were down could not be confirmed there. However, the

Milwuakee hospital, had received a letter saying that Miss Duffy was
seriously ill. Persons, who professed to have the information, said that
the report confirmed the death of Miss Duffy but Mrs. Meany said that
she had no further information and had not received messages from the
Duffy family, whom she did now known.
Mr. E.T. Teitgen, who visited Milwaukee yesterday, was told by Mrs.
Duffy's brother that his sister was a patient at the hosptial but was
improving and her condition satisfactory.
The publication of the report by the Herald of Miss Duffy's death is

HENRY MEIHSNER

HEARS FROM BROTHERS WHO FOUGHT FOUR YEARS WITH GERMAN ARMY 
Christmas brought Henry Meihsner, foreman at the Aluminum Goods Co., plant in 
this city, greetings from two brothers he had mourned as dead in the service of 
the German army during the war, the communication between the brothers having 
been established through the Red Cross society and Mr. Meihsner, always a 
supporter of the organization, is now more than ever enthusiastic for its great 
work. Four years ago when the war broke out, Christain(sic) and Karl Meihsner, 
brothers of the local and man and residents of Germany were sent to the front 
with the forces of Emperor William and yesterday’s letter, the first during the 
war, brings news that both have escaped. Christain Meihsner was with the Germans 
in the front line trenches practically all the time for four years except for 
two brief occasions when he was wounded and in the hospital. Both times the 
wounds he received were of a minor character and he was returned to the lines 
within a short time and was still in the game when the armistice was signed. 
The other brother, Karl, was also in hard service. The Manitowoc man had heard 
from his brothers and their service through other relatives but had doubted that 
they would escape, knowing that they were with the front line troops and the 
letter yesterday through the medium of the Red Cross announcing that both were 
alive and had escaped with but slight wounds came as a most welcome Christmas 
day greeting.

It is reported from Kiel that 13-yr. old Wilhelm Reseburg there, a son of the

children. Norma Ammann, also 13, her sister Vera age 9, and little Lester 
Meiselwitz age 3, were playing in a skiff in the river. The river there runs by 
the residence of the two girls' father. The skiff broke loose and before the 
children noticed, was going down the middle of the river. At that point the 
children started to cry for help. 13-year old Wilhelm, who was in the area, 
leaped over two fences into the river, swam to the skiff and towed it to the 
bank, thus saving the children….

WALTER MEISNEST

BRANCH FAMILY IS SEEKING SON MISSING SINCE LAST AUGUST 
Walter Meisnest Left Home to See Circus at Appleton and Failed to Return - 
Mother Anxious as to His Fate Makes Search for Him 
Search is being made by relatives in an effort to locate Walter Meisnest, a Branch, 
Manitowoc county boy, who left his home last August to attend a circus at Appleton 
and from whom no word has since been received. Young Meisnest, who is a nephew of 
County Supt. Charles W. Meisnest of this city, is said to have disagreed with his 
father over a question of liberty, the lad believing that he was not given the 
liberties enjoyed by other boys. Meisnest is a son of Mr. and Mrs. John Meisnest of 
Branch and up to last August resided with his parents there. When he left for Appleton 
to attend the Barnum shows in August he gave no intimation that he would not return 
the same day but his continued absence for several days did not cause alarm but when 
days passed into weeks and weeks into months, search was undertaken in an effort to 
trace the lad but up to this time his whereabouts are unknown. Relatives visited 
Appleton yesterday to investigate a report that Meisnest was at work in the paper 
mills in that city but the clew proved a false one and no trace of him was found. 
C.W. Meisnest of this city said today that no reason was known for the boy having 
left home as there had been no trouble with his parents as reported. He believes 
the lad is in the west. The missing boy is 18 years of age, medium size, stocky 
build, dark hair, a full round face, and has brown eyes. His mother is very anxious 
to hear from him, or to know where he is.

LOCAL BOY IS WITH ARMY OCCUPATION 
Another Manitowoc boy who is with the army of occupation in Germany is Samuel

that it may be some time before he is able to return home. Mr. Melendy is 
serving with Co. C. 6th Engineering Corps., attached to the Third division. 
He enlisted at Chicago a year ago and recalls in his letter that he had Xmas 
dinner aboard boat at a landing port in France. In part his letter, written 
at Boler, Lorraine says: “You will know before this reaches you that 
hostilities have ceased. We are in Loraine which up to recently was in the 
hands of the Germans. Our division (the Third) is one of the divisions chosen 
to form the Army of Occupation and although this is considered quite an honor, 
as only the best divisions are selected, yet I know it will be a disappointment 
for you to learn that I will not be home as soon as you have been expecting. 
The people here are French and Germans and the money mostly German so if we 
are here any length of time I expect to be able to speak both languages. We 
sure will have much to be thankful for this year on Thanksgiving day. 
I am all O.K.”

MENSCH, MR.

The Deadly Knife
An Unsuccessful Attempt at Suicide
One of the most determined attempts at suicide occurred on the farm of Weemar, 
Sec. 24, Town of Liberty on Tuesday morning last. An old man age 71 named 
Mensch, formerly a resident of the city has been living with Mr. Weemar for some 
time past, went into the woods in the morning mentioned and selected a spot where 
the timber was very dense and large logs were lying so as to be as secuded as possible, 
made the attempt to end his earthly existence by cutting his throat. He was missed 
suddenly and search was made but he was not found until Wednesday lying in the 
woods a day and a half and still alive. He was then carried home and physicians 
sent for the next day; they searched the place at noon that day and found he had 
with an ordinary butcher knife severed the tendons and muscles of his left arm in 
trying to open arteries but failed. The wound in his throat was most ghastly. It 
extended from one ear to the other and as far back as the angle of the jaw and 
here also failed to open any important blood vessels. He would talk freely although 
in a low voice and the only reason given was some business troubles connected with a 
mortgage. There is but little probabilty of recovery.

TOOK BRIDE TO SURPRISE FRIENDS 
Emil Merz, York Street Plumber Wedded At Milwaukee May 25 A visit to Milwaukee, 
a quiet wedding and the surprise of friends is the story of the marriage of 
Emil Merz, the well known York street plumber. Although more than a week has

has come into his life and the announcement which is just made public, will 
prove unexpected. Saturday, May 25, was the date of the marriage which was

who was formerly Miss Ida Lietz, returned to this city immediately and have 
taken up their residence at 762 North Ninth street, where they are at home to

has made a success. He has acquired a wide personal friendship and is known 
as a progressive and capable business man. The HERALD unites with other in

GEORGE MESSMANN

Mr. George Messmann, the well-known life insurance agent, paid us a pleasant 
visit yesterday, though he still complains of pain in his arm from a bullet 
which hit him at the Battle of Langensalza in 1866. (27 June 1866, Hanoverian 
Army against the Prussian Army, won by the latter.) Messmann was serving with 
the Hanoverian forces and was hit in the right chest. At that time the doctors 
couldn’t find the bullet and the wound healed so completely that he was able 
to participate in the 1870 war against France, for which he was awarded the 
Iron Cross. Later the bullet began to move and went upwards along the chest 
and then down the right arm. At present it’s by his underarm and one can 
actually feel it through the skin. Eventually the doctors will remove it to 
stop his pain but are waiting until it travels further away from the armpit.

August Meyer, aged 80, the city’s oldest bicycle rider, was in court this morning 
and pleaded guilty to riding his wheel on the sidewalk and paid a fine of $1 and 
costs totaling $5.01 which he paid. Officer Ladwig charged him with riding on 
Franklin street walk. Mr. Meyer pleaded guilty to the charge and when it was 
suggested that his age should mitigate the offense, he said that he was not 
looking for any ? on that score. He declared that he rode a wheel because he 
enjoyed it and that he understood that he had violated the ordinance when he rode 
on the walk because it was easier riding and was willing to pay the penalty. The 
court then imposed the minimum fine. Mr. Meyer is care taker for the Hickley-Allen 
property and despite his four score years, is daily at work. He said that riding 
on the walk might be more comfortable but it was too expensive and he would 
hereafter stick to the road.

CONRAD MEYER

STABBING AFFRAY.
Night before last a crowd of young people went for a surprise party to the 
residence of Peter Holsen about four miles out of the city on what is called 
the Herman road between the town line and plank roads.
At the close of the entertainment the boys were chipping in to pay for the 
expenses and called on Louis Betermichel to pay his share. He replied that he 
had already paid and would not give any more. In the dispute which followed 
Betermichel drew a knife and stabbed Peter Holsen of this city, slashing him 
across the face and stabbing him in the shoulder, breast and arm. Jim Hall of 
the town line road then took a hand in and knocking Betermichel down, but he 
jumped up thrust his knife in Hall's arm inflicting an ugly flesh wound, and 
then made his escape. He was followed by some of the party but eluded prusuit. 
In the morning however he was overtaken by Conrad Meyer who assuming the airs 
of a person in authority told Betermichel he was the person he was looking for 
that he was under arrest and must come with him. Meyer brought him into town 
and held him until the proper legal steps were taken. He is now lodged in jail 
where he will probably have time to find out this is not exactly a free country.
Dr. Frazer was called out to care for the wounded and says that Holsen is 
seriously wounded but will probably recover, the most dangerous cut being the 
one in the shoulder. Hall's wound is not serious.
Betermichel is a new comer having been this country but a few months.
He was arraigned this morning before Justice H.E. Markham on the charge of assault 
with intent to murder. Bail was put at $1200, in default of which he was remanded 
to jail. Examination was deferred until Saturday when it is expected the effect 
of his attack on Holsen can be more clearly determined.

JOHN MEYER

(From the correspondent in Two Rivers, 17 July) 
John Meyer in Two Creeks, whom your correspondent recently visited, is an old 
settler in that town, but he will soon be moving to Anness, Sedgwick Co., Kansas. 
He will spend the rest of his days with his son-in-law there, Chas. J. Althoff. 
He will continue to receive Nord Westen there.

JOHN D. MEYER

The Third ward school takes the cake, in fact the whole baker shop, 
in the number of children attending school from one family. Mr. 
John D. Meyer, sends nine children to school, the oldest of which 
is fifteen years. Then, Mr. Donahue sends eight, and quite a number 
of families send seven. If any of the other schools in the city can 
do better we would like to hear from them.

OTTO MEYER

MEYER SANE, IS FREED, BUT MAY FACE CHARGES
Declared sane by physicians who have had him under observation 
since March 29, Otto Meyer has been given his freedom when he 
was declared able to care for himself. Meyer was taken into 
custody by the sheriff's department following an assault upon 
Reuben Madenwald, superintendent of the county insane asylum. 
It was necessary to use tear bombs to get him out of the shack 
he calls a home and in the trouble which followed Meyer was 
wounded in the leg by a bullet. Relatives appeared in county 
court and demanded a jury trial for the man but it was agreed 
that he would remain under observation for a time. Wednesday 
the physicians in charge of the case found Meyer sane and he 
was ordered released. Whether any further action is to be taken 
in the case could not be learned today although there is a 
possibility that Madenwald may have a warrant issued on an 
assault complaint or the sheriff take action because of the 
resistance to officers. 
Meyer is a large, powerful man and is employed as a mason 
helper, having worked for John Scheurell during the last year. 
Meyer attempted to drive Madenwald from the trial(sic) orchard 
and resisted the sheriff's force when it was called.

DEATH FOLLOWS PLAY
Sad Accident in Which Two Little Girls Lose Their Lives at Two Rivers
DEATH STRUGGLE IN WATER
Henry Schultz, Sixteen Year Old Lad, Makes Heroic Effort to Rescue 
the Victims-Both Children Non-Residents
A sad fatality in which two lives were lost by drowning is reported 
from Two Rivers and details of the shocking accident received at this 
office reveal the heroism of a sixteen year old lad who made strenuous 
efforts to save the victims and nearly met the same sad fate as a 
result. 
The accident happened shortly after 4 o'clock Friday afternoon, Mabel 
Garvis, an eleven year old girl of Milwaukee and Beatrice Pearson; 
aged ten years of St. Paul, being the victims. The children were at 
Two Rivers to spend their vacation with their grandparents, Mr. and 
Mrs. Christian Miller. They had visited the beach and were playing 
near about when they ventured out on the boom and losing their balance, 
both girls were precipitated into the water. The current at the point 
where they fell into the river was very swift and they were carried 
down. Henry Schultz who happened to be in the vicinity, saw the terrible 
peril in which they were placed and responding to their cries for help, 
plunged into the water to the rescue. He succeeded in reaching them and 
would undoubtedly have been able to save their lives but for the girls 
themselves. 
Highly excited and crazed with terror, both grasped the boy tightly 
about the arms and neck, weighing him down so that he was unable to swim 
or make progress and all three were dragged down. It was impossible for 
Schultz to make the girls understand that they must not hold him if they 
would be saved and realizing the danger to all he freed his arms but when 
he again attempted to reach the others, they had been carried beyond his 
reach to their fate. Making for the shore he succeeded in reaching it in 
safety completely exhausted. He was assisted by willing hands and 
recovered shortly. 
The life saving crew at once launched a boat and pulled to the accident 
recovering the two bodies but all efforts to resuscitate them proved 
futile, and they were carried to the home which they had left but a short 
time before in life. The bodies will be sent to their respective homes 
for burial. The news of the accident spread quickly and a pall was cast 
over the city. The heroic effort of young Schultz in behalf of the victims 
is highly commended and the boy is certainly deserving of all praise for 
his manly act.

of a funeral march, Harry solemnly sawed his first stick. As the band 
changed to a livelier tune the saw made quicker time and amid the 
cheers and comments of an assembled crowd the pile rapidly melted away, 
and in its stead was a mound of honestly cut, good maple wood, stove 
length. And the country was saved.

EDWARD MORGAN

Last week we reported that the family of Edward Morgan, who had been missing 
since 20 December last year, feared that he had fallen into the river and 
posted a $50 reward for his body. The police searched the floor of the river 
but found nothing and abandoned the search, but Friday morning Charles M. Downer, 
while passing the mouth of the Little Manitowoc, saw a body on the bank and 
notified the police. Police Chief Drews went to the site and with the help of 
Downer, Daniel Fleischer, and John Smith, retrieved the body and took it to 
Frazier’s Funeral Home. The body was clad in a union suit, shirt, socks and 
patent leather boots. From the gold front teeth and the initials E.M. on the 
shirt, it was presumed to be Morgan’s body. 
(Two columns and several hundred words are devoted to supposition about the 
circumstances of the man’s death, and to testimony before the coroner’s inquest. 
The sensational nature of the case is probably covered in detail by the English 
language press.)

MORRIS

The young man, Morris, toward whom suspicion of the murder of the 
Novoratsky girl a week ago has from the first been directed, was 
arrested yesterday and lodged in jail last night by Sheriff Murphy. 
The evidence against him thus far is entirely circumstantial. It is 
only fair to say that he has hitherto borne a fair reputation. The 
result of the examination will be awaited with great interest and 
probably new evidence may be developed before its close.

MORRIS MAY DIE
Victiim of Cutting Affray Has Little Chance to Live
George Morris, who was the victim of a cutting affray at Two Rivers Thursday night, 
may died, his condition being critical. Morris was removed from the jail to the hospital 
and little hope is entertained for him. John Watts, who was sentenced to three years at 
Waupun for the assault upon Morris, is known to the prison authorities having served 
two terms at the institution. Watts was released from Waupun last August after a two 
year sentence. Should Morris die, Watts may face a murder charge when he is freed. 
Both men are strangers here and claimed to hail from Ohio. Watts used a razor in the 
attck on Morris while the two were intoxicated aat Two Rivers.

MICHAEL MORRISEY

CATO FARMER IS MADE DEFENDANT IN SUIT BY WOMAN
Michael Morrisey Sued For Damages on Grounds of Slander and 
Hearing is Held In Court Here.
Aleged slanderous statement, which she claims the defendant made, are the 
basis of a damage suit instituted by Miss Katherine O'Connor, formerly of 
Maple Grove, against Michael Morrisey, prominent and wealthly farmer of Cato, 
residing near Reedsville, defendant being held before Judge Chloupek last 
week. The complaint in the case has not been filed but it is said will allege 
slander and ask damages of $10,000.
The case is said to date back two years or more when Miss O'Connor, nowa (sic) 
resident of Calumet county, left Maple Grove to visit in South Dakota. 
She alleges that through the tongue of Mrs. Morrissey a story became circulated 
concerning her visit in the western state which reflected seriously on her honor 
and good name. She also claims that the story was circulated far and wide and 
was generally believed and became imbedded in the minds of people before it 
reached her ears. When she learned of it, she commenced suit.
Morrissey was summoned to appear before Judge Chloupek in an examination under 
the discovery statute but declined to answer questions upon advice of his attorneys, 
on the grounds that "an answer would tend to incriminate him." Morrissey was 
represented by Hougen & Brady and Isaac Craite.
Both principals in the case are prominent and widely known in the county and the 
case will attract much interest. It will be heard at the June term of circuit 
court.

Miss Helen Morse, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. C.W. Morse, who is attending the Milwaukee

gymnasium. She was performing on a ladder when she slipped and fell a distance of 17

Her parents were not informed of the accident, the news reaching them only this morning 
in a letter from Miss Morse. Mr. B. Morse, a brother went to Milwaukee last evening and

COURT GRANTS DIVORCE TO MRS. MROTEK, SAYS COUNTERCHARGE OF HUSBAND
HAD NO FOUNDATION
In circuit court today Judge Kirwan handed down a decision granting a
divorce to Mrs. Agnes Mrotek from her husband Peter Mrotek, the court
holding that charges of the wife were established by the evidence and
that there was no evidence sustaining the husband, of adultery. On the
witness stand Saturday Mrotek on cross examination said that he had 
never believed that his wife was untrue. The case occupied two days in
hearing and was rather sensational. The couple have three children who
will remain with the mother who will receive $6 weekly for their support
from Mrotek. Hougen and Brady appeared for Mrs. Mrotek and Kelley and
Ledvina for the husband.
When court opened this morning the temperature of the court room was 
too chilly and Judge Kirwan held the session in the library, adjacent,
a much smaller room, more easily heated.

JOHN MROTEK, KNOWN AS "MELENDY," HAS NARROW 
ESCAPE FROM DEATH; BOTH LEGS BADLY CRUSHED
John Mrotek known as "Melendy," was seriously injured and narrowly escaped death
this morning when he was caught under a barrel of vinegar when a plank on which
he was loading the vinegar on the schooner Oscar Newhouse, broke. The heavy 
weight struck Mrotek's legs, crushing them and causing a compound fracture of
the bones of one leg and the breaking of a small bone in the other. The injured
man was removed to the hospital in the ambulance.
Mrotek was at work loading vinegar for shipment on the Newhouse and was rolling
a barrel on a plank which had been placed from the boot to the dock when the
plank broke and the barrel crashed to the dock. Mrotek being caught by the weight.
It was reported that Mrotek had both legs so badly crushed that amputation would
be necessary, but examination at the hospital proved this unfounded. Had the
man's body been caught under the falling barrel he would probably been killed

FRED A. MUELLER

SON SUES ESTATE.
Alleged Promise of Dead parent Is Basis for Claim Made by Fred A. Mueller.
SOLD BUSINESS AT A LOSS.
Says he Sacrificed Large Sum to Return Here and Wants to be Reimbursed-
Claim Is Contested.
For losses which he claims to have sustained by reason of the hasty sale of 
his business prompted by the express wish of his father, Fred A. Mueller has 
instituted a suit to recover $3,580 from the estate of the late Gustav Mueller 
and the papers were served Friday. Mueller was engaged in the drug business at 
Junction City, Oregon and came here at the time of his father's serious illness 
at the request he alleges, of the father and upon promise that he would be 
reimbursed for any loss which might result from the immediate sale of his 
business. $2,450 is the amount which Mueller claims to have sacrificed when he 
disposed of his drug store and he adds to the claim another $400 to cover the 
cost of removing his family to this city.
Other heirs of the estate will contest the claim made by Mueller and have retained 
attorneys to fight the case which will probably come up at a date in the near 
future. The plaintiff is now employed as collector for the Schreihart & Mueller 
Brewing Co., in which the deceased father had a half interest. The inventory of 
the property is $92,000 and in addition there is $6000 to $10,000 of other property 
which will be dipsosed of under the will. There are nine heirs to the estate. In 
the suit commenced by Mueller, Nash & Nash represent the plaintiff, Edward Schmitz 
and Emil Baensch, the estate.

MR. MURREY

THE BADGER STATE MANUFACTURING COMPANY
We were quite surprised, the other day, on taking a look through 
the extensive sash, door and blind factory of the Badger State 
Manufacturing Co., to behold the extent of the business of this 
company, and the facilities they have for carrying it on. Of course 
the immense structure which this company occupies is indicative,
in a measure, of the amount of work that is going on within, but one 
can only fullycomprehend its extent by going through the establishment, 
as we did, and noting the number of men employed and the number of 
machines in operation.
The internal arrangements of the factory are superb, every machine 
is of the most approved kind, and each seemed placed in exactly the 
most proper and convenient position. Mr. Murrey is the ruling spirit 
within the establishment, and to his care and oversight all the order 
and regularity which prevails is due. He will permit none but first 
class work to leave the factory, and for this reason the goods of the 
Badger State Manufacturing Co. find a ready sale in any part of the 
country.
Indeed, the Company find it difficult to fill all their orders as fast 
as they come in. Mr. Cole, one of the firm, is the business manager, 
and the ability with which he has managed the business of the 
establishment has already made its success a certainty.
