| His Callers Numerous
The callers at the jail have been
rather numerous today. Sheriff Crop
ley says he is seriously considering the
ACCESSIBILITY of hiring another deputy
sheriff to take special charge OF this
one prisoner and the people who call
to see him. Among his recent callers
was the Rev. Harry Thompson, who
has been CowelFs pastor since he has
been in the city. The NEWS man was
sent for this morning by the prisoner.
He called and found Mr.. CoWell seated
| in the sheriff7s office conversing with G.
H. GOnnermann. He had been going
all over the case with Mr.. Gonnermann
and explaining that he was innocent
and that he thought the prosecution
would find it pretty hard work to prove
ANYTHING against him. Mr.. Cowell did
| not look so detected this morning. He
had got himself up in his usual style,
with the exception Of his hair. That
Hooked trife disheveled and unkempt.
He greeted the NEWS man in his usual
style with as much cOmposure as
though he were seated in his own
l,office. When he had finished his con-
Iversation with Mr.. Gonnermann he
drew a copy of the TELEGRAPH-CO UR-.
TER out of his pocket and stated that
while he understood the business OF
newspaper men to be that of hunting
up and working up every sensation
they could get hold of, and he had
nothing to say against it, he thought
one assertion made about him was
false and he wished it corrected. He
stated that his case in Justice Skaters
court was not the only case he
| had ever tried in KenOSha He
said that he had had four justice
court cases altogether and had thrown
aside others he did not wish to touch.
Lately, he stated, there had hardly
been a month when he did not have
something on in the county court.
=" Aside from that" continued Mr..
Cowell, :" consider your article very
/ fair to me. 1t makes plain statement
of the case and is very well written,
but that one assertion is like the cows
kicking over her fine pail. of milk.
Why, what do. you think have been
living on since I've been here? ! have
had to get my living out of my practice
