MADISON, Wis, Sept. Is. The young fend
lncarnate, Geo. Baum garten, who 80 inhumanly
murdered little Sandy White at Fulton. Tues
day, is now safely incarcerated in the Rock
county Jail at Janesville. He was carefully
guarded in the Dane county Jail here last even
ing and taken to Alton, Wis, by the 9:45A. M.
train, and from there to GAINESVILLE by wagon.
This route was deemed eafer than over the
Milwaukee & st. Paul road. By the latter it
would have been necessary to pass through
Edgerton, where SO much bitterness exists to-
wards him that the officers feared lynching.
Baumgartcn is idiotic looking in the extreme.
He confessed to beastly practices which give
him hang dog, idiot look. he says he knew
nothing till be found little Sandy hanging in
the barn, and knowirg he had killed him fin
ished the work by cutting his throat and dis
emboweling him. Great credit is due to
Sheriff Phin Baldwin, of Dane county, for so
successfully and quickly capturing the young
offspring OF hell.
