RELEASED FROM CUSTODY.
The Physicians Who Acted as a
Board Of Examiners in the
Case of Mrs. S. C.. SOule,
Declared There was not Stuff
cient Evidence Produced to
Send Her to an Asylum.
A Free Press Reporter Inter
views Her at Her Home

The physicians who sat in Judge
ment as to the condition Of the mind
of Mrs. S. G. Soule, held a. consulta-
tion last night and after celebrating
for some time they rendered a verdict
that there had not been produced suf-
ficent evidence to warrant them in
combining her in an insane asylum.
The decision was surprise to the
majority of the people who, while
they believe she may be perfectly
rational on all other subjects, she is
not right on the particular line which
has brought her so prominently be-
fore the public.
This morning about ten o'clock, a
FREE PRESS reporter knocked at the
door of Mrs. Soul6's residence, on
South Front street, near State street,
and her eldest daughter, Miss Mamie,
responded. In reply to a question as
to her mother being at home, she said
she was out visiting friend, who bad
afternoon. In talking of the case
which has created SO much excite
ment, she said she remembered very
distinctly Of her mother going out on
the nights when the meetings of the
gang were held
About one O'Clock this afternoon
the reporter again visited the. house
and found Mrs. Soule with her family
enjoying sumLtuous repast around
the festal board.
As soon as she was at liberty she
came into the sitting room and po-
litely greeted the scribe. In referring
to the idea of holding up the men
mentioned yesterday aud the robbing
of the banks, she said: Perhaps that
was not made clear to some at the
court house. / will say now, however,
that it was their plan TO first hold up
these men, secure checks from them
at the point of a revolver, and then a
few nights later to rob the three
banks and leave for parts unknown.' -.
'"How is it you have failed to give
any description of these men?" CUE
| rfed the reporter. Gas | stated dur
! ing my examination failed to identi-
| fly any Of them but one. That was
| the one with dark mustaci2e. [
| co2ld pick him out Of a crowd, but [
would not do it now, after the man
ner have been treated"
During the entire interview which
lasted full half hour she referred to
the several conversations with the
police, Col. Thomas and the bank
presidents. Nothing has stirred the
community so much as has this affair
in many day.

WHY MOTIF

Why not manufacture our furniture
here in Mankato, instead of sending
abroad for it?
Why not have beet sugar factory
and make our own sugar, instead of
depending upon foreign sources for it?
Why not build that carriage factory
and manufacture the carriages used
in Mankato and vicinity?
Why not have wooden mills and ex-
port woolens instead of importing
them?
why not have knitting works and
produce in our midst what we now
send away for, and so save freights?
Why not build a Straw. Board fac
tory and sc supply this portion Of the
country with that article?
Why not have big cotton mill and
manufacture the cloth we use right
at home?
Why not have a large pillow factory
here and manufacture plows for the
great agricultural section which lies
at our door, and SO increase our
wealth?
Why not enlarge our boot and shoe
factory and make this central point
for the manufacture of footwear?

any mistake he would take it back to
the signer and have it corrected. The
next time / saw the note it was
brought into the bank by man
named Webb, who l understand was
in business with Dutton. The note
was then signed III. III. Studt. He
told me that the note had been taken
to Mr.. Studt and that he had correct
ed it. again refused to accept the
note. Some little time afterward /
saw Mr.. Studt passing the bank and
called him in and told him the story
OF the note. He seemed surprised
and said he knew nothing about it.
He had never signed any note of
the kind to his knowledge.
At the night session Mr.. Studt was
recalled and he swore positively that
he never corrected by adding another
''H." nor did he authorize anyone to
do SO for him.
In the absence of several witnesses
an adjournment was taken until nine
O'Clock this morning.
The first witness called today was
Geo. Sanger, who testified as to driv-
ing Dutton around the country.
Mr.. G. r. Brown testified as to see
ing the note in question at Mapleton
and when he saw it the signature
read H. H. Studt
Mr. Robt. Little took the stand,
identified the note as the one he had
purchased.
Geo. Bienapf was sworn and testi-
fed as to having drove out to Studt's
on the day he signed the paper, hav-
ing as passenger G. NJ. Dutton, the
defendant.
This closed the testimony in the
case. Mr.. Pau arose from his seat
and moved that not only should
the defendant be held for securing
signature under false pretenses
but that he should be held for
forgery in the second degree as well.
After consultation the Judge held
Dutton on the first charge and in
creased his bail to $500, for his APP
pearance at the next term of the dis
trict court. He then stated that as.
everything indicated that there
had been forgery in the second degree
committed, he would bind the pris-
oner over to the next term Of the dis
trict court, the amount of bail to be
fixed by the Judge of that court. The
defendant seemed crestfallen when
this announcement was made.
1t is seldom that those who are vic
timized come forward and prosecute
the wretches who go through the
country seeking whom they may de-
YOUR and now that it appears they
have one of the vultureS the State
should spare no pains to give him his
just dues.
