New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1899-05-24
Result Unknown.
The Analysis Made by Coroner nerritt is Kept
Secret. B

After analyzlng the contents OF the
stomach Of John Wellner, murdered
New Years eve, at the laboratory of the
University in Minneapolis, Coroner Mer-
rit of Nicollet county returned it to the
grave, whence it was taken, and the re-
mains will not be disturbed again. The
results of the analysis are not known,
the authorities will probably try to keep.
the matter a secret until the next grand
jury of Nicollet county is called.
The main object of this investigation
was to remove all doubts as to the time
of the murder. According to Mrs. Well
nel's statement Wellner was murdered
shortly before midnight and this being
the case the contents of the stomach
would have been digested. If he was
shot shortly after supper this would or
could have been proven by an analysis,
and perhaps it has been proven. 1t IS
hardly credible that the officials of Mic
ollet county we're expecting to find trac-
es of poisoning, although this possibili-
ty is not excluded. As the analysis
was not made until the day after the
adjournment of the grand jury, the in
activity of that body with regard to this
crime is explained and it was no doubt
caused by the advice of the sheriff. Ru-
mOrs were afoat of sensational arrests in
the near future, but up to the present
time the rumors were unfounded. It
seems as if everybody knows who is to
be arrested and while broad hints are
thrown no names are mentioned. The
crime OF New Years Eve is still an un-
solved mystery. ..
