County Farmers.

The Watonwan county grand jury has
been busy1ng itself with the affairs of
the Madelia Farmers Warehouse Com
.pany, and as q result it is given out that
indictments have been returned against
all Of the directors, charging them with
grand larceny in either the first or sec
ond degrees. The directors against whom
true bills have been returned are John
Mccarthy and T. J. Mitchell of Blue
Earth county, ]. E. johnson, GA. Cros-
by, John Shellcto and A. R. Batchelder
of Watonwan, and Thomas e. Hovde and
and Frank Lee of Brown. They are
charged with having removed about
1000 bushels of wheat, belonging to
others, valued at $4,000.
The men have not yet been arraigne d,
but 1t is thought that they will be early
this week. The men are all prominent in
the localities in which they live, and
with one or two exceptions the Review
is firm in the opinion that they are in
nocent. That the directors were deceived
in the methods of managing the elevator
there can be no doubt, but that they
were wllfuu accessories TO any crime Of
theft or larceny, few will believe. That
someone was at fault, is plain enough

Can 1t
Be True?
A Prisoner in the Owatonna Jail Reported
to Have Admitted to the Muir Ter
of Albert Winkelmann.
His Statement Corresponds Closely to the
Evidence Adduced at tho Time
of the Shooting.

+ Last Thursday Sheriff Anderson was
at Owatonna. He. had gone thither in
response to a letter from the sheriff of
Steele county stating that one of the
prisoners now in his charge had admit
ted to the murder of Albert Winkelmann
in this city on the morning of July 4th,
two years ago. H.
Mr.. Anderson returned Thursday af-
ternoon and to Review reporter he
gave the following as the information
which he had obtained:
John Ives, an intelligent and "ut-spok-
en- tramp, had just been released from
Jail, after serving sentence of thirty
days, and to the sheriff he said that one
of the other prisoners had, during his
term of confinement, gradually made a
con6dant of him and finally confessed
that he had fired the shot on the 4tht of
July, two years ago, that resulted in
Albert Winkelmann's unfortunate death.
This prisoner, Ives said, goes by differ
ent names. He had known him to pass
as Tom Hagen, but at present he is
awaiting the action of the Steele county
grand jury on charge OF larceny as
Michael Enright.
Enright's statement, as given to Ives
and reported by the latter to the sheriff,
was to the effect that with four other
tramps he had entered New Ulm on the
third of July in box car; that he haG
trouble with Policeman Winkelmann
that afternoon and had been ordered out
of town; that he had returned later in
the day, Joined his companions IN the
car and agreed with them that should
the policeman molest them they would
wait until he put his head into the cal
) and then they would suddenly slide the
door shut so as to catch him about the
neck; that about midnight Winkelmann
made his appearance at the car and or.
dered the tramps to vacate. Enright
according to his statement to Ives, go,
out, but the others refused to do so

elected, but it strikes us that there is no
good reason for change unless Judge

into the car the door was slammed against

hind, placed q loaded revolver at his
neck and fred. Winkelmann so En-
tight told Ives soon managed to extri-
cate himself and started in chase of him
who had fred the shot. Escape was
easy however and it was not until some
time after that he heard that Winkel-
mann had died. >
This statement certainly tallies closely
with the little evidence that was ad-
duced at the time of the murder. Win
kelmann, it will be remembered, was
still living when found early in the
morning of the Fourth and his last words
were to the effect that he had been shot
by tramp. He was known to have had
trouble with tramp the afternoon pre-
vious and had even escorted him out of
town and threatened him in case of his
return. He also told his young brother
in-law late in the evening that he intend
ed yet to make the rounds of the box
cars to see if his man had returned.
The place where Winkelmann fell is
only about block from where Enright
says the murder was committed, and
Winkelmann might easily have made
chase for that distance before failing in
strength. .... ..-.- = "
