soon as Marshall fell Thuber and Wright
became locked in a fierce struggle, and

him dead. Wright came from Racine,

an inquest in the case of Adolph Krueger
the railroad machnist from Creston, whose
dead body was found Saturday morning in
the yard of the Casady homese cad, brought
in a verdict yesterday to the effect that
"said Adolph Kruger came to his death

or that of some person unknown to the
jury"

his own life, the jury could not get over
the fact that there were no powder burns
