evidence could be procured if a contin-
uance was granted. The prisoner,
O'Donnell, was brought into court.
Mr.. Farr asked: Docs the court re-
fuse to accept the nolle:'
The court said: Yes, | refuse to ac-
cept the nolle as such"
After further discussion as to the pow
ers of the district attorney, the court
said: If nobody appears for the state
the prisoner is discharged" ODonncll
showed no emotion whatever. District
Attorney Farr then left the courtroom.
1t is said that O'Donncl is to be ar
rested again before night.
OD0nnell was charged with the mur-
der of his wife last spring. The woman
died under suspicious circumstances. and
an examination showed that she had been
poisoned. O'Donnell was arrested II
was discovered that he had bought Strych-
nine, as he said. to kill rats. This fact
and the testimony of Nina lie Claire. with
whom, it was alleged, O'DonncIl was in
love, were the main contention of the
prosecution.
Miss lie Claire afterwards retractcd her
testimony and then again alleged that her
confession was false.
The case has been dragging in the
courts ever since last summer.

ONE OF THE ';RAMBUsCH CASES" "
Administrators Hemmy Wins Suit al
juneau.

Juneau, Wis, Dee. 2o.-I Special. IA
decision of great Importance and wide
spread interest was handed down by Cir
cult Judge Dick this week in IA case
known as one of the ''Ramhusch eases. .
Ii was the case of Theodore i. Hrmmy.
cashier of the Citizens bank of juneau,
and administrator de bOniS non Of the rs-
tate of Mrs. Lucinda Cutler, deceased.
against George Hawkins of Watcrtuwn.
who is the heaviest loser on account of
the RambuSch transactions. II was in
favor of the plaintiff. The ease WAS
tried some time ago, and WAS taken under
advisemcnt by the court. and the decision
was made and entered Saturday. w. +
Rambusch was the executor of the last
will and testament of Mrs Cutler, who
died in the town of Rochester some years
ago. She left large estate, and Ram
busch had the exclusive handling Of it.
AS such executor. he borrowed S2JOJ
from Hawkins and gave him in return
and as security Il note ana mortgage M-
longing 10 the estate. This he did with
out obtaining any license or order from
the probate court.
RambuSch did not turn the money over
to the estate and after he ahScoHdcd an
investigation by the hondsmcm revealed
the fact that the note and mortgage Wrr,
gone and there was nothing 10 show fur
them. They petitioncd Judge Christian
minStrator de bonis non, which petition
was granted and suit was commenced
at once against Mr.. Hawkins to compel
him To satisfy the mortgage.
Malone & RaChhuhcr and Judge Saw
yer appeared for the hondSmen. AMI H#r-
low reaSe for the iefcdant. This dec.S-
ion has great bearing on other lawsuits
growing out of Ramhusch's miSmanagr-
ment of estates over which he had con
troll. The case will go 10 the Supreme
court.
Another RamhuSch case decided Is that
of Henrietta Winkleman Of NatertoWn
against Heinrich Brickert. Bri"kCrt hor-
rowed S11oO from Ramhusch and the lat
ter assigned the note and mortgag" given
as security, to the plaintiff The defend
ant paid $500 principal and the interest
which RambuSch failed to turn over to
the plaintiff. Judg" Dick decided in ia
vor of the plaintiff, holding that tam
husrb was the agent pf the defendant.
