SAYS BUTLER IS INSANE.
Attorney Erwin's Plea for Miss
Wittgraf's AssaiIant.

Wittgraf's AssaiIant.
Moritz Butler was given preliminary
hearing yesterday in police court on the
charge of attempted murder. He is the
man who assaulted and attempted to
shoot Miss Julia Wittgraf on the morning
of Nov. 2, in front of a store on the
corner Of Wabasha and Seventh streets.
Butler was held to the grand jury
Miss Wittgraf was able to appear In
court and told her story in a simple,
straightforward manner. She has been In
the city hospital for the past two weeks.
She denied that there had ever been any
particular friendship between herself and
Butler, and stated that she had resent
ed all his. expressions of love. She has
repealed his advances, though on one oc-
caSion she had accepted two meal tickets
from him and on others had received
small gifts of confectionery and flowers.
She claimed to have refused several times
to accompany him to places of amuse-
ment
Regarding the shooting, Miss Wittgraf
said she had been approached by Butler
on the previous Monday, and that he had
irslnuated that she owed him money
She had replied that she was not in his
debt, and offered to give him money to
supply his needs If he wanted it, On the
day of the shooting he approached her
e'AiN 1Set e'9hSU ior HdoHey, anu upon
her refusal to accommodate him, had
drawn a revolver and fired. Officer White,
who arrested Butler was the only wit
ness called. He corroborated Miss Witt
gratis account of the shooting.
After Butler had been bound over, w.
w. Erwin, Buffers attorney, said:
Butler IS insane. He was for nine
months confined in an asylum in Aus
trfa, and to all appearances was shipped
to America. His grandfather was insane,
and there is no question In my mind but
that he was out of his head when he
shot Miss Wittgraf The best proof of
his insanity is the fact that he did not
show any emotion after the shooting" (
