POISONING.
SUSPICIOUS CASE OF ALLEGED
POISONING DEVELOPS IN CAvA-
LIER COUNTY.


POISONING DEVELOPS IN CAVA-
MER COUNTY.
rs Grand Forks, Dec. 2O--A very pecu-
liar case of alleged poisoning has de
veloped at Osnabrock, the result, it is
claimed, of revenge on the part Of a
young woman.
Mrs. Elmer Stevens, wife of the
Great Northern agent at that point,
is the victim of the occurrence. The
facts of the case as learned by the
correspondent Of the Plaindealer are
as follows: ~
3 On Friday last Mr.. and Mrs. Stevens
took dinner at the Albion hotel as
usual. Mrs. Stevens was in uncom-
monty good health and spirits and en-
joying her dinner as only those pos.
sessed of good health can.
When paritaking of her tea Mrs
Stevens noticed that it, tasted very
salty but thought nothing of the oc-
currence at the time. A few minutes
later. however, while waiting for hel
desert she was taken suddenly ill
She was at once removed to her home
and DR.. Jamlson of Osnabrock and
Dr. Mcqueen of Milton were hastily
summoned but despite all their efforts
Mrs Stevens remained in a very pre-
carious condition until Sunday even,
ing. So .
At THAT time it was decided to sum
mon Drs. Wheeler and Fiset of Grand
Forks and they We're telegraphed tc
come on the Tfist train. At the time
the account was sent they had not ar
rived, but the greatest anxiety was
expressed by Mrs. Stevens and the
many friends Of the estimable couple
as to the verdict Of the physicians. i
Strong suspicion rests, upon one OF
the mattresses of the hotel 1T is al
legged that she made threats against
Mrs. Stevens on numerous occasions
and She was once heard to exclaim:
III. h. r.
"I'll fix you ~. @aE Z
1t is stated on the authority of Mrs.
Stevens that action will be commenced
against the proprietor and inmates OF
the hotel in hopes of arriving at the
truth of the matter. #
Public sympathy is strongly with
Mrs. Stevens. At present she lies
very near deaths door and the marks
of her severe suffering show plainly on
her features Strong hopes were en-
tertained, however, that steps would
be taken when the Grand Forks physi-
clans arrive to counteract@ the inf1u-
ence of the poison and that Mrs Stew
ems will shortly be restored to her
usual health. s.z
DR.. Wheeler was seen this morning
after returning from Osnabrock and
stated that there was no question but
what Mrs. Stevens had been poisoned.
While her condition was considered
serious it was mot thought that her
life was in amy Immediate danger.

attention It required several hours
to get o jury The first witness called
by tho prosecution was NJ. G. Ganlke,

Bismarck daily tribune. [volume] (Bismarck, Dakota [N.D.]) 1881-1916, 1900-12-20

Witness for the state, and that Linz
.delie had declared at that time that
he had never received money from
O'Leary at amy time. Later in the
day he said Lindelie admitted that
3O'LeaTy had left 500 on the table at
his house. Martin Johnson, e. X.
Ramsey, Fred Burgett, Henry Steam
berg and Geo. H. Wilder, all OF whom
served on the grand jury, were next
called in the order named, and they all
testified to practically the same thing
as the first witness examined. In
cross-examining the witnesses it
seemed to be the purpose Of the attor-
5neys, for the defense to bring out the
fact that though the money had been
left at Lindelie's house which is not
denied by them, it was not accepted
by the defendant, and was left on the
table in his house under protest.
After the six jurors had been exam
ined the prosecute ion called r. ].
3o'Leary, who testified practically as
follows: .s .38 IA
N In August of '9S he came from Lari-
more, where he was in business, to
sLindelie's house in this city, for the
purpose of seeing If he could not be
protected in selling liquor providing
he paid for it. He said that after q
consultation with Lindelie he gave
the latter 800, and that the latter
promised to notify him by letter If
other members Of the league should
attempt TO start any action against
him. Shortly afterward he says that
he received the following letter from
Lindelie, and that the signature
Jack is the one that had been agreed
upon: s3
The committee demands action
against you and your partner right
away. i cannot prevent 1t. There is
strong evidence against you sworn to
by good men and sdefaced'' the league
to force action. What day warrants
will be out do not know AS we
promised you in 3Larimore to, give you
a chance to avoid arrest, j write this.
If you leave you will be a free man.
If YOU stay you must go ITO jail When
we concluded to delay action to give
vo,, cl,o :, of ~ 1r,,1y !, On, ,<,,,r Il, -,
We thought the committee also would
let you off easy; but when the COM
mittee will force you to the wall we
cam have nothing to say and cannot
doga anything. The rumor is that you
have been bootlegging, that accounts
for the committees hostility. T5.
JACK.
As to recens events O'Leary testified
that he had arrived in the city Short
time ago, and that some of his friends
had notified Lindelie that he was in
town and that he Lindelie) had bet
ter see him (O'Leary) as the latter
might be called as a witness before the
grand jury He says that meeting
had been arranged between himself
and Iindelie and that he had told
Lindelie that he thought he should re
ceive his 800 back. He said that
Lindelie had agreed to return the
money if O'Leary would return to him
the letter that OsLeary had received
above referred TO signed Jack" z
O'Leary agreed to do this and later in
1ne evening he went to Lindelie's res
idence. returned the letter and re-
eeived his 500, and at once turned it
over to States Attorney Bangs. He
also stated that at the time Lindelie
gave him the money, he had stated
that he was to leave at once for Du-
luth. and that he was not to testify
before the grand jury.
