|0OIRAG, MURDER AND SUICIDE
Anton Pacher Commits all Three Crimes and
Pine County is Wild With
Excitement
Rose Frantz, Aged Thirteen Was the Victim
of First Two Crimes Charged Against
Him-Both Most Brutal.

PINE CITY, Aug. 20-(Special. 1.-THE
rair name Of Pine county was outraged
Sunday night by one Of the most das
tardly and appalling crimes which the
state Of Minnesota has ever known. It
exceeds from depraved standpoint, the
recent terrible tragedy which has made
the county Of Anoka unfortunately no
tor1eus- The people of Pine City, near
which the crime was committed, are In a
state Of the most aggravated excitement
over the deed and the fact that there is
no way by which the perpetrator of tie
dastardly deed can be brought to Justice
only intensi1es the rage of the populace.
VICTIM ONLY THIRTEEN.
Rose Frantz, the thirteen-vear- ar-old
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Frantz.
who reside within a couple of miles Of
Pine City, was horribly murdered, after
suffering on outrageous assault at the
hands Of man forty years of age,
Antoine Pacher. a Bohemian by birth.
Last Sunday afternoon Pacher, Rose
and small brother Of the little girl went
down to Snake river to fish as they had
heen in the custom of doing for some
time. Pacher was living with the family
or the chilcren and the parents had per-
feet confidence in him, since he had made
his home with them for two or three
years. They fshed until sundown, when
under some pretense Pacher sent the lit
tie boy, whose name is Joseph to the
house, telling him he and Rose would
follow soon The boy started for home,
but childlike, wanted to stay with the
others and within very short time re-
turned to the river bank
HER BROTHER SAW A PART.
AS he reached the bank of the river
he saw Paeher in the middle of the river
with the body of his little sister in his
arms. The boy gave a loud scream,
which Pacher heard at once. He looked
where the boy was standing and with
mad frenzy shrieked vengence upon him.
But he did not attempt to carry out his
threat, and after he had thrown the life
less form of~the girl into the deepest
part of the river, jumped in himself
The scene was too much for the child
and he went to his home as fast as pos
siblc, and told his parents what he had
seen The news was spread through the
nelghborhood and in q short time a large
crowd of indignant people were searching
the river for the dead body of the girl
and the surroundings for Pacher, who,
they believed to have escaped to some

Murdered
Sibley County Officers Looking for the Hu8-
band Who is Suspected of
the Crime

ARLINGTON, Mimi, Aug. D.-(Spe-
cial )-Five members of the family Of
Theodore Wallert were murdered In cold
blood at their home three miles out Of
town about 2 o'clock this morning. An
other was severely wounded, but will re-
cover. The dead are:
MRS. THEODORE WALLERT, forty
two years.
GUSTAV sTERNBURN, twenty years
HELENA STERNBURN, sixteen years
ANNA sTERNBURN. thirteen years
REINOLD sTERNBURN, twelve years.
Injured:
Otto Sternburn, eleven years.
Theresa Osteinor, little girl who was
visiting with the Wallarts, escaped the
murderer's knife.
HUSBAND SUSPECTED.
The woman's husband, who is the step
father of the children, is suspected of
the crime
The murderer first set fire to the barn,
burning 1t and it's contents to the
ground, also several outlying stacks of
grain and outhouses. He then entered
the house by means Of barrel placed
near a window.

sleeping down stairs, and the other
daughter, a grandchild and three sons
were UP stairs. It is supposed that
those down stairs fell first under the as
sassin's knife, and that the others were
killed as they came down the stairs, be-
ing awakened by the fire and the cries
of those below.
All had stabs in their chests and alb
domens and some in the neck. One boy
was struck by the knife three times, but
but will recover IL no complications set
in.
AS the deed was committed In dark
ness, the only living witness does not
say positively that Wallert was the muir
derer, but thinks it was him.
Two neIghbor boys, Martin and Fred
Joel, discovered the fire and ran over to
the house, at which time the murderer is
supposed to have escaped, and nothing
more has been seen Of him.
AN AWFUL SIGHT.
The alarm was spread at once and DIR.

place OF refuge. Although the boy saw
Pacher go down IN the water, the theorv
that he had drowned himself was nor
accredited. The searchers argued that ha
had only dived and swan out SO that the
ooy would carry the report to parents
that he was drowned
After searching for some time the body
OF the girl was found. IT was taken
ashore and the search for Facher's body
still continued.
CRIME A TERRIBLE ONE.
Dr. Wiseman, coroner. reached tho
scene as quickly as possible and made
a post mortem examination of the BODY
The terrible deduction was made that tha
child had come to her death bv being
strangled by Pacher. 1t was also di-
Vulged that before killing his victIn,
tacher outraged her 1t was evident that
this crime was accomplished with con-
siderable difficulty, and that the girl re-
sisted with all her power. The child's
head was badly beaten in and later
searches proved that this was done with
d revolver which the man had carried.
Inc hrearm was afterward found upon
the oank, with the coat Of Pacher
PACKERS BADY FOUND. TOO
The search for the fiend was resumed
yesterday morning, and near noon the
body was also found In the river He
had sent himself to a watery grave evil

hope for his escape, since the boy had
seen him in the water with the body of

Joseph, the boy who came so near be-
ing a witness to his sisters awful death.
in the minds of the people here, had a
narrow escape himself from death. It Is
the belief that If Pacher thought he could
nave accomplished the deed successfully
he would have thrown the boy In the
river instead of drowning himself, and
depended upon getting away But such
an undertaking would have been rather
hazardous.
PARENTS ARE FRUSTRATED.
The result of this tragedy is over
whelming to the parents of the girl. They
are prostrated with grief. and the entire
community shares their sorrow as well
as rankles under indignant passion.
The affair was all a complete surprise
to the Frantz family. They had known
Pacher for several years, and had given
him home in their house for three, and
their confidence In him was sufficient to
warrant them in permitting him to ac-
| company their children anywhere. The
man was not particularly bright, but was
sober and industrious. He is said TO have
wife In the Rochester insane asylum
The funeral of Rose Frantz took place
yesterday from the home. Pacher was
also buried later In the day.

Of the boy. His description Of the
scene Is one OF the utmost horror. One
son and cne daughter were lying in the
front room, and the mother and the
other son and daughter were lying in
the adjoining room. When discovered
the daughter In the front room was still
alive, but soon expired.
All were lying face up on the floor.
with the exception of a boy about
twelve, who had fallen upon a lounge
The attitudes of all indicated they had
died in great agony. Blood was lying in
pools all over the lower part of the house
and the walls were splattered with it.
MIS- WaIIert, the mother of the fam
lily, and who was probably the first 10
meet with death. had been married TO
Wallert about six or seven years. Her
name previous to this last marriage was
Sternburn, and the children all bear that
name. The mother was about ffty-three
years old, ard the children ranged from
twelve to twenty years.
For a long time past the family has
been having trouble of one kind and an
other, according to all that can be
learned, until several months ago Theo-
dore Wallert left the home and went
TO live with relatives in the neighbor-
hOOd. lie was seen here In Arlington
about 9:30 last evening and it is thought
that he must have gone from here to
the farm. Whether or not he had been
drinking, or was in a At Of insanity,
Is still matter OF doubt.
HIS REVOLVER FOUND.
Wallart had revolver and purchased
some cartridges yesterday. In the house
today his revolver was found None Of
the victims, however, were shot. all be-
Ing stabbed. apparently, with butcher
knife. Wallart has been traced towards
Glencoe. Two miles from the house his
bloody clothes were found and his watch
and pocketbook. 1t is not known where
Wallart secured new clothes. The knife
with which the crime was committed has
not yet been found.
The children killed were all the chill
dren Of Mrs. Wallart by former mar
riage. Domestic troubles IS given as the
cause Of the crime. Wallart and his wife
for some time have been separated.
The whole country IS stirred up over the
event and Sheriff Gasske has formed
posse to go Out and search for the Grim
inal Wallert IS so well known that 1t
seems unlikely he can escape.
