Judge SIOssOn Sentences Carl SWartz
to Spend Four Years in State
Prison at Waupun.
THE'CRIME MOST Contemplate.
In Sentencing Swartz the Judge Severely
Censured the Prisoner For His Guilt
Girl to Go Unpunished.
(From Mondays Daily.)

Carl Swartz, who was arrested at
Oshkosh two weeks ago on a charge OF
fornication, Miss Emma Becker being
the complaining witness, was ar
raigned in the County court before
Judge S1osson this morning and en-
tered plea of guilty as charged. The
sentence of the court was the extreme
penalty under the statutes and Swartz
will spend the next four years of his
life az hard labor in the State prison
at Wat San.
There were only few people in the
court room when Swartz was sem
fenced and expecting a light sentence
the prisoner had little to say IN excuse
for his crime When he addressed the
court he muttered that the girl had
told him that she was more than
eighteen years of age and that he had
nothing further to say.
In imposing the sentence Judge
Slosson delivered a short address to
the prisoner which evidently hurt him
more than the sentence to prison. In
speaking the Judge told Swartz that
he was accused of the most contempti-
1
bic crime on record. The Judge said
that it was possible for man to com
nit larceny, or even murder, and have
a possible excuse, but when a man
committed crime such as Swartz was
accused of there was no posi- bic excuse
that could be offered. On this account
the Judge stated that he felt that the
full penalty of the law should be i'm
posed. When the full import of the
wor1s of the Judge fell Upon Swartz he
turned deathly pale but said never a
word. He was led from the court
room by the under-sherif and when he
was returned to his cell he gave way to
a passion of oaths in which the officials
of the county were pretty roughly
treated. The sentence of Judge Slos
son is one that will be heartily ap-
p1auded by the people interested in the
! case.
Miss Becker will not be prosecuted
for the part she played in the drama,
as the officers seem to think that she
was completely under the influence OF
Swartz. The prisoner will be taken to
the State prison at Waupun tomorrow,

wEIsMANN APPEARS IN COURT
Brighton Attorney Claims to Know Nothing
of Insanity Proceedings in Kenesha.

of Insanity Proceedings In Kenesha.
Attorney Henry Weismann, former
ly of Union Grove, now of Brighton,
was in Racine Monday attending both
| justice and circuit courts. Mr.. Weis-
mann, when questioned in regard to
Judge Slosson, of the Kenosha county
court having adjudged him insane, and
that he had run away, said that he
did not even know that he had BEEN
declared insane. He further said that
he was not afraid of the sheriff of Ke-
nosha county and that officer dared not
take him into custody.
Mr.. Weismann further said that ne
had not been at Burlington, Wis.
When he left his home he went to Chi
cago and was there three days prepar-
ing number of cases for the Supreme
court; that he spent one day in Union
Grove and then went to his farm in
KenosEa county and went to Racine
Monday morning to attend to the
many cases he had pending in the JUS
tice and circuit court. He said there
was nothing the matter with him and
A. W IL
judges or courts had declared him in
sane, it would not be so, but that God
was with him and would look after
him. He said that two of his enemies
had threatened to end his life, that the
people who were attempting to send
him to the asylum were anarchists and
would deal with him as President Nc
Kin1ey was dealt with did they dare do
it, but they dare not. Their object
was to take away his property, his
liberty and ruin his practice. He said
that no one could describe how that
application to examine into his mental
condition had injured him. No matter
where he went people looked at him as
if they really thought he was insane.
He said that his time would come later
aud that justice would be done. {.
Mr.. Weismann is mixed up in a
dozen different suits. Several are be-
ing appealed from the justice court
When the justice was reminded this
morning that Mr.. Weismann was 1e-
gal1y debarred from practice, he said
that he had not been notified of that
fact and all he knew was what news
papers had said and would not bar him
from his rights until officially notified
Mr.. Weismann left for Brighton after
dinner.

INSPECT HEATING PLANT.
Racine and milwaukee Capitalists Come TO
Kenosha to Investigate.


A party of capitalists from Racine
and Milwaukee came to Kenosha Sun
day morning and during the day made
an investigation into the merits OF the
municipal heating plant as operated IN
Kenosha. The men we're very retic-
ent in regard to their mission but it is
stated that they have formed com
pany for the purpose of building a
similar plant in Racine.
F. w. Bowen, secretary of the local
office, in speaking of the matter this
morning said that ne was not aware
of 'the visit of the Milwaukee men and
that the local company was not in any
way connected with the deal.
A year ago the Kenosha Gas q Elec-
trio company considered plan for the
construction of heating plant IN Ra-
cine but this plan has been abandoned

PROPERTY OWNERS INDIGNANT
Racine Street Improvement Association
Outwitted by Railway Tracks Laid.

Wisconsin street property owners in
Racine, and especially those who are
the active members OF the Wisconsin
Street Improvement association, are
up in arms and if it is possible for
them to block any of the work of the
Milwaukee Electric Railway and Light
company in that city they win do so. ri
Indignation meetings have been
called and the chief topic of the many
speeches that will be made will be:
"Why did the city officials pay so
much attention to the promises of
John /. Beggs, the general manager of
the company"
The company has sought permission
to lay a double track on Wisconsin
street, one of the most prominent resi-
dence streets of the city, but on ac-
count of the street being narrow the
request was denied. Manager Beggs
asked permission to lay another switch
track. This was also denied. Shortly
after midnight Saturday gang of
men were put to work and Sunday
night at 8 O'Clock the switch had been
laid, the rails welded and the work
completed. The work was done within
200 feet of one of the commissioners OF
public works, who had fought the re-
quest of Beggs, and not until Sunday
morning did this commissioner know
what was being done. It was impossi-
bic to secure an injunction order re-
straining the company from doing the
work.

AM 1Nv1r,Ne PLACE OF WORSHIP

The Baptist church, which has re-
Gently been thoroughly renovated,
decorated and newly carpeted, presents
a very fine appearance, and seems to
express to the public most hearty
welcome. Pastor Kunkle, together
with his faithful membership, is ear
nest1y striving to make his church a
factor in building up the religious life
of Kenosha.
A fine quartet consisting Of Mrs
Hawkins, Mrs. Marx, Messrs. Hague
and UT furnishes excellent music, and
with the solos of Mr.. Hague and Mrs
Wolfe makes this part of the services
an attractive feature.

MAY BUY MORE LAND.
Council to Consider Further Improvement
of Middle street When Extended.

The City Council is still considering
improvements IN Middle street and 1t
is reported this morning that an effort
will be made to have the Council pur-
chase small strip of land on the east
side of the river for the purpose OF
Strengthening the street. The land IN
question is owned by Alderman
Thomas Nader and it is stated that it
can be purchased on advantageous
terms. The purchase Of the land will
make it possible for the engineers to
move the east approaches of the bridge
further to the south, thus giving the
streets much better appearance. It
is probable that special meeting OF
the Council will be called to consider
the matter.
