J $3.50 - NASc "NSN ~ inOttb
came before the Grand Jury lasi
week The Grand Jury found an
indictment against A. l.. Wheeler,
j. j. Vinall, and Hannah Hopkins,
for murder in the first degree On
Friday night Wheeler and Vinall
coming to the conclusion that such
would be the case, or Knowing the
fact, fled from the town. Search
was everywhere made but they could
not be found. On Monday morning
of this week Wheeler returned. The
Judge wrote on the indictment "not
bailable," but after consultation be-
tween the prosecution and defense,
and by the consent of the prosecu-
ton, SO as to have A. L. Wheeler
here for trial, the Judge permitted
bail in Wheeler's case ut $4,000.
This proceeding of bailing those
indicted for murder in this case and
the Thcrnburg case, appears full of
mystery to the people at large, but
it may be legal and all for the best.
The ways of the law are sometimes
past finding out. Wheeler declared
that on no account, cost what it
might, should the jailor's key be
turned on him. And it is not. He
is thus at large awaiting trial under
an Indictment of murder in the first
degree, and under $4,000 bonds
ont with the advantage of scarcity
of evidence, unless Mrs. Hopkins
can be found, and some others will
tell what they know, and WITT the
comfortable thought of being out of
Jail.
DR.. j. j. Vinall is still absent.
but the effort is making to secure
bail Tor him. The evidence is more
pointed against him on account of
the post norton examination, but the
probabilities are that he will he
granted bail. If Wheeler can be
out of Jail on bail, moral justice
would suggest the fairness of grant
inc Vinall bail. But wherever Vinall
IS or may be, he is under indictment
Tor murder in the first degree.
In the meantime z. S. Altman,
suspected of carrying out the plan
Of breaking open the trunk in War
saw, belonging to the late Sue Bea-
yer, and destroying the letters has
departed from town and cannot he
found. Hugh Rose, accused of
shipping Mrs. Hopkins boy from
this place, has also left town and
cannot be found.
In the meantime another horrible
crime Of seduction and ruin by A.
L. Wheeler, and abortion by DR.. j.
J. Vinall, has come to light. This
case Is the case of the young and
innocent girl, Anna Korp. The
young girl is seriously i'll and charges
her rum upon Wheeler,and abortion
upon DR.. Yinall. This case has ter
ribly shocked those among whom
Wheeler moved with so much po-
likeness and pretended friendship,
while at the same time accomplish
ing his internal purpose. On last
Friday the prosecution took lead
ing physician of town and visited
Anna KoTp, about eight miles north.
The Girl told the whole story of ruin
by A. L. Wheeler, and abortion by
]. j. Vlnall. The girl is young, and
will never be well again. She was
at the residence of Mrs. Force, in
town. a sister Of Mrs. Hopkins, I'M
Ill within q short time. Things
too shot" for Vince Ter
and Vinall, they forced her to travel
to place eight miles north of town
She says Wheeler was one year in
effecting her ruin, and did so by
promises Of money and various
Establishments. That he gave her a
little money at Mrs. Forces house,
but after he had effected her ruin he
let her shift for herself. She says
that the operation for an abortion
took place in DIR. Vinall's Office, and
that she gave birth to twins. The
prosecution asked permission for the
Grand Jury to visit the girl: OF
course the girl duplicates herself in
the crime of abortion, as the law
makes it penitentiary offence to
consent to. or submit to an abortion.
The girl, however, is young and will
receive mercy. She shouldn't
her testimony is positive against
Wheeler and Vinall. The Grand
Jury visited the girl on Tuesday,
and received her testimony. 1t is
reported freely on the street that
money is offered beautifully to have
the girl removed so as motto appear
in cour, if she should live. We are
not surprised at anything money
can do.
We give the above facts, and leave
the reader to draw his own conclu-
