BELIEVED TO BIZ A CASE OF WIFE POISONING
Al telegram from St. Paul. Mimi, April 2, says:
'Shakopee, town In the Minnesota Valley, 80
miles from here, has been much excited for
IhIee days over case OF alleged wife poisoning,
the coroner's jury TO- day. The wife of Jacob
Prenn1nger living In poverty and warfare with
her husband in q small house near the town
died suddenly Saturday with commissions and
other symptoms Of strychnine poisoning The
testimony before the corOner's jury showed thai
her husband purchased strychnine some time
ago with which to poison rats; that he was In.
different to his wife's suffering, and procured
her burial with Indecent haSte that cup from
which she drank coffee was emptied Into pai.
from which COW drank and died. Prenninger's
explanation was general denial and suggestlo
OF suicide. The body was exhumed, and tn
application OF single test by the county PHI
slcian failed to reveal the presence of stryc7l-
pine, wbereupon the jury rendered a verdict Of
death from an unknown cause. The public wa
not satisfied, and druggists made tests anu
thought they discovered strychnine in TIL
stomach. The viscera have been brought r.
st. Paul for further examination. The loo
excitement continues intense"
