New Ulm review., 1901-08-07

Our advise to the anti. McC Cleary re-
publicans is not to spent any time or
money in trying to defeat the skule-
master. He has the machine and the
federal office. holders at his back and he
will remain in congress until side tracked
by man who is opposed to the trust
and privileged classes. So says the Fair
mont Sentinel.
In case the Republican party declares
strongly against the trusts and such
other things, a new man, who has not
fought under the old banner, will stand
a pretty good show, and the anti-Mc-
Claryites will have running chance.
There is no doubt but that the opposi-
ton to McClaery comes from senator
Somerville's friend and there are very
few people in Brown County who
wouldn't like to see him sent to Wash
ington, bnt as long as the present trust
policy dominates the party platform
1t is doubtful if he could secure the
nomination.

ARRESTED ON SUSPICION.
stephen McCluskey, an Old Offender Was
Landed in Jail by officer O'Hare.

Chief of Police O'Hare this afternoon
arrested Stephen McC1uskey and land
ed him in the county Jail. McC1uskey
is held on suspicion and from his
actions and goods found on him it is
thought possible that he may have
been connected with some of the
robberies that have been committed in
this city during the past few weeks.
At the time of his arrest McC1uskey
was attempting to sell two rings. The
rims s were offered for sale to lady by
the name of Smith and the man asked
such low price for them that the sus-
picion of the lady was excited and she
turned the fellow over to the police.
McC1uskey is not a new criminal
here. He was arrested in the summer
of 1898 on charge of robbing Mrs.
Anne Johnson of gold watch and
quantity of money. He pleaded guilty
to the charge and was sent to the state
prison for one year.
The rings are still at the police Office
and the Chief requests people who have
lost jewe1ry to call and identify them
if possible.

WINDSOR HORSE RUNS.
Exciting Runaway Accident Occurs on
Park Avenue Sunday Afternoon

Ben Windsor was infused with an
idea that sleighing was good Sunday,
and had his trotter, Nell, 4:45, hitched
to sleigh for the first time. Walter
White acted as driver from the barn to
the Windsor home, that is, he attempt
ed to drive, but Nell, 4:45, not liking
the jingle of bells, had other notions,
with horse sense, and the snow f1urries
from Nell's hoofs hitting the high
places along Park avenue, caused ex-
element on that quiet thoroughfare.
Nell, 4:45, ran to the house with White
clinging to the lines and yelling to the
people to get out of harms way.
AT the house of Windsor, when told
that Nell, 4:45, had run away, Ben de-
c1ared his intention of giving an ex-
hibition in the art of holding the rib
bons, and together they started-the
finish was of such a nature as is needed
with calcium lights.
Down Chicago street ran Nell, 4:45,
at clip to rival that of Croecus, and
Windsor declared he was cit" when
behind Nell. Near the cemetery, Neil,
4:45, thought it time to let out a burst
of speed, and, turning quickly, starte d
to show Windsor where he gets off at.
1t was picture. Ben ho11ered whoa"
thirty-six times by actual count, ac-
cording to witnesses, in that many
feet, and Nell ''a1so ram
Windsor passed one line to White
and together they sawed and twisted,
but to no avail, and the horse took one
good jump, out went White, and Ben
turned ha1f-Nelson flip and landed
with dull thud against tree. Both
escaped with slight bruises, the. horse
ran to the Hosiery works and was cap
tured. The sleigh will make kindling
and Windsor has a horse for sale,
which, when ahead of a sleigh, will
guarantee to travel a mile in less than
2:2O. With buggy the horse is still

Water Commissioners Order a City
Seal and Will Prevent Water
Stealing in Ken0sha.
GREAT LOSSES ARE SUSPECTED.
Pipes in Several Factories Not Running
Through Meters Nav Have Been Tapped
Exciting Discoveries Expected

The water commissioners have de-
cided that the city shall purchase a
seal for their use. The seal and the
reasons for it's purchase are not entirely
made known to the public, but it is
alleged that this precaution is being
taken to prevent the wholesale stealing
of water from the city. For some time
it has been patent to the water COM
missioners that the people of the city
are using too much water. This was
demonstrated by recent visit to RAJ
cine, where they learned that while the
Racine company had three times as
many customers as the Kenosha COM
pany the pumps in this city were
pumping by far the most water. This
fact led to a rigid examination, and it
is claimed that the commission has
made some discoveries which would be
very interesting if they were given to
the public.
In several of the factories of the city
a pipe has been laid for their accom-
mediation in case of fire. The water
which flows through them does not
pass through the meter and it appears
possible to the commissioners that this
waterway is being used too frequently.
Of course the company has no evidence
which would warrant the arrest of any
of the factory managers, but the illicit
use of the water has come to such a
point that the commissioners feel that
it is time to call halt. This is the
purpose of the seal that has just been
ordered. Every shut off which is to be
used in case of fire and every dead pipe
will be properly sealed and thenif they
have been opened it will be an easy
thing for the commissioners to dis
cover the fact. Thousands of gallons
of water could be made to pass through
these mains daily without the COM
mission being aware of it and without
the factory paying cent into the
strong box of the city for the water
used. However with the use of the
seal this nuisance will be done away
with.
The commission has ordered bids for
the new pump, which is to be put in at
the station ard it is probable that the
town will soon be filled with men
anxious to supply the need.

Kenosha.
Totals ............1 1886

Especial attention is called to the ex-
ceeding1y fine score made by our old
friend, Geo. E. Villas. It will be seen
by this that he is bowler deserving
of especial mention. It would be sug-
gested, however, that he take a few
lessons, or else confne himself to the
handling of his dog kennel. Evident
1y the balance of his team are bow1ers,
and if il was not for the very ungain My
work of their leader they could prob
ably have done much better; but of
course it is not Georges fault that his
feet are so large that it was impossible
for him to keep back of the foul line.
The following article ''Ike Bishop
and his team of star bow1ers of Keno
sha ralsagainst snag last night and
dropped two games to the Milwaukee,
ans''-which appeared in the Sunday
morning Sentinel, does not a11ude to
the gar e of ten pins bow1ed, but rather
to that other game of bowling so well
known and practiced by Milwaukee
people. We mention this so that no
mistake may be made as to what was
meant by the Milwaukee article.

Mr.. ARNOLD IS NOT ENJOINED.
Company Claims That the Injunction Does
Not Apply to Present owner of Fran
chise.-Writ of Error Prepared.

Gustav L. C1ausen, Patrick l..
Haynes and B. J. Arnold will ask the
circuit court of the county to grant a
new hearing in the suit of Mary Hale
Allen VS.. the company, Judgment in
which case was filed with the clerk of
the court on Saturday afternoon. The
company will seek new trial of the
case on the ground that the decision of
the court was contrary to the law and
the evidence and on account of the fact
that new evidence has been discovered
which will throw more light on the
case. 1t is understood that this is
simply preliminary act, as the case
will be taken to the supreme court and
the writ of error is now being prepared.
Several attorneys of the city claim
that the judgment in the case does not
a railway on South street. 1t is grant
ed against Gustav L. C1ausen and his
assigns, and it is claimed that Mr..
Arnold has not become an assign of
Mr.. C1ausen since the time the action
was commenced Mr.. Arnold pur-
chased the right to the franchise before
the action started and on this account
he could not be effected by the judg-
ment of the court.
Notwithstanding this fact it is the
purpose of Mr.. Arnold to clear his
skirts of any restrictions and for this
reason he will make an effort to have
the decision against Mr.. C1ausen re-
versed in the higher courts.
In regard to the fling of the judg-
inent it is stated that the plaintiff
attorneys failed to tax any costs
claiming that this would be useless
precaution as Mr.. C1ausen had no prop
erty in Wisconsin.
In connection with the case the SUI
preme court will have an interesting
point to settle, as the attorneys for the
defendants claim that Judge Fish had
no power to declare any part of the or
dinance null and void in considering a
suit in equity.
The hearing of the request for new
trial will probably be made within the
next few days, in order to have the
case ready by the opening of the March
term.

County Board Will Rebuild the Old
County Building for the College
of Commerce.
WILL IS E A MODERN BUILDING.
Work Will be Done Under the Direction of
Prof. 0. L. Trenary and he Will Have
Rent Free for a Term of Years.

The County Board will foster educa-
ton in the county, for at their last
meeting Saturday afternoon, after the
Board had decided to repair the court
house and make it a fit place for the
business of the county, they also de-
cided that the old county building
should be repaired and made into a
modern building for the use of the
College of Commerce. The property
will remain in the possession of the
county, but will be turned over to the
college for long term of years.
According to the plan formed by the
Board Saturday afternoon the building
will be at once turned over to Prof.
Trenary when the repairs on the court
house are completed who is to have full
control as to the manner and extent of
the repairs. The plan, as outlined, is
that the repairs are to be done by Mr..
Trenary, who is to be allowed to have
the use of the building for a term of
years to compensate him for all money
expended on such Improvements.
The plans and Specifications for the
work will be made at once and the
County Board adjourned to meet in two
weeks, when the plans will be sub
mitted and the Professor will make
proposition to the Board as to the
terms on which the building will be
accepted by the college. This action
was taken on account of the fact that
Mr.. Trenary had stated to the Board
that he was considering plan to leave
Kenosha.
The plans for remodeling the old
building are now being made. They
will provide for the addition of a second
story, the installing of heating plant
and sanitary plumbing and general
decoration of the building. When it is
completed it will make an indea1 school
and will allow room for generous in
crease in the work done by the College
of Commerce. It is intended to have
the work finished by the opening of the
fail term of the college.

Sporting Men From Racine, MiIwau-
Waukee and Ken0sha Pull Off
Cock Fights at County Line.
BATTLES LASTED EIGHT HOURS
Biggest Thing of Kind Ever Pulled Of in
Drop Large Sums of Money.

The biggest thing in the way of a
cooking main" ever held in Southern
Wisconsin was held last Saturday
evening and Sunday morning in barn
near the Racine-Kenosha county line.
There were more than two hundred
sports from Racine, Milwaukee and
Kenosha in attendance and the battles
lasted from 1890 Saturday morning
until daylight Sunday.
The main had been the event in the
sporting world of the counties for some
time and the best birds in the three cit
les had been taken to the pit. The pit
was built in barn and seats had been
raised around it in the form of an am
phitheatre. About the pit were seated
number of officials from Racine and
Kenosha and this fact gave tone to the
affair. Forty battles had been ar
ranged and half hundred game cocks
were on the ground to participate, but
so holly contested were the bouts that
the number of battles was cut in two
and the spectators were forced to be
satisfied when twenty fights had been
pulled off. Most of the matches were
won by Racine and Kenosha birds and
on this account the Milwaukee sports
are said to have dropped large sum
of money. The scene at the side of the
pit was a most exciting one, as many
of the birds matched had won reputa-
tons N the fights at Burlington and
Antioch.
The fights are said to have been held
in Racine county and the. matter has
been referred to the officials of that
county, who will investigate it. If
any evidence can be found it is proba-
Bile that a large number of the men
who were in charge of the main will be
arrested. AS far as could be found to-
day, the Kenosha men who attended
the fight are keeping axceedin Fly qtties
about it, and one of them who mad sew
era1 chickens entered refused to admit
that the main had been pulled off. 1t
is said that a series of mains have
been arranged to continue throughout
the winter.
The men backing the scheme from
the three cities are mostly men of
wealth, and it is stated that fine purses
are being offered for the contests.

WIFE BEATER ARRESTED.
Charles Langenbach Arrested for Whip
ping His Wife Saturday Evening.

Charles Langenbach, an emp1oye of
the tannery, was arrested on Saturday
evening by Chief of Police O'Hare on
a charge of assau1ting his wife. The
complaint was made by Mrs. Langen-
bach, who alleges that her husband
beat her in a most cruel manner. It
seems that Langenbach came home
late Saturday evening and at once be-
gan to abuse his wife. Words soon
led to blows and the neighbors were
called in to quel1 the disturbance.
The officer was at once called and
placed Langenbach under arrest. Mrs.
Langenbach was not in any way
seriously injured by the rough usage
accorded her by her husband, but she
has several bad bruises.
Langenbach is chronic offender in
this crime and his escapades in the
line have been many. He has often
been arrested for beating his wife and
at one time he served jail sentence
as a punishment for the crime. The
troubles of the Langenbachs have
been great annoyance to the neigh
borhood and some action should be
taken to see that the family is separat-
ed. Mrs. Langenbach has stated that
she intended to seek divorce, but no
action in the matter was ever taken.
