A TERRIBLE DEED
Woman Murdered and Outraged
In Her Home.
NORTH OF BATTLE CREEK
Robbery Likely the Prime Motive
John Brantlnger, Hired Man Of a
Neighbor, Charged With the Crime
Threats of Lynching.

| Battle Creek, Mich Dec. ia
, crime committed yesterday in the
home OF Robert Garrison, living four.
| teen miles north Of here, has no par.
allel In this section with respect to its
horror, and none but bloodthirsty
| lustful fiend of the worst type could
have been guilty of the terrible act
Mrs. Robert Garrison was outraged
killed, and from all appearances the
prime intention Of the perpetrator was
robbery.
John Brantlinger now lies in the
| city jail as the probable murderer.
Brantlinger was in the employ of a
| neighbor of Garrison named Van
| Sickle, three-quarters of a mile distant
| Monday morning Van Sickle and Gar
rison left at o'clock for Battle Creek
with load of wood, leaving Mrs. Gar
! rison alone.
Garrison had short time since sold
his farm for 81 400.
1t now appears that hardly had the
two men departed for the city before
Brantlinger requested of Mrs. Van
Sickle the loan of her husbands gun,
saying he was going shooting skunks.
Almost conclusive evidence points to
the fact that Brantlinger, thinking Gar
rison had left this wad of money at
home, went to the house and demand
ed it Of his wife. She refused and he
shot her dead. Not content with this
the brute ravished his victim.
The body of the dead woman was
discovered by Mr.. and Mrs. George
Garrison, parents of the husband, who
arrived at the house about 1920 in
the forenoon.
Brantlinger Immediately made prep
arations to escape, first taking precau-
ton to shave off a heavy mustache
and purchase other wearing apparel.
But all to no avail. Quick work of the
officers traced the man to the Grand
Trunk depot, where shortly after noon
he was taken in custody.
Brantlinger claims he is entirely in
nocent of the crime, but feeling runs
so high in the neighborhood of the
crime that lynch law would rule were
the officers to relinquish the man.
Battle Creek, Mich, Dec. 17.-John
Brantlinger, the farm hand accused Of
the murder of Mrs. Robert Garrison,
spent restless night in his cell and
yesterday resumed his place In the
sweat box. The police were confident
that he was the murderer and just as
confident that he would soon break
down under the strain. Their predic-
tons were verified at IL o'clock, when
the miserable man made a clean
breast of the affair to Chief of Police
Harrington.
Brantlinger, who says that his right
name is M. H. Utzler, declares that
he went over to Garrison's house with
no thought of murder in his heart. His
only object was to secure money
which he believed was on the prem
Uses. He does not state, however, why
he killed the woman, but vigorously
denies that he assaulted her.
He made as thorough a search Of
the house as time would permit, and
says that all he took was a lady's
gold watch, valued at $35. This he
sold

Washington, Dec. 1.-THE venezu.
elan question occupied the attention of
the senate in executive session Tues
day for almost an hour. The question
came up Informally almost immediate
ly after the public was excluded. Sen
stor Teller, disclalming all intention
Of being critical and saying he merely
desired information, asked Senator
Cullom, chairman Of the committee on
foreign relations, for information he
possessed as to the Venezuelan affair.
Mr., Teller, in inquiring, said that the
situation Is such that senators felt that
the Monroe doctrine at any time
might become involved, If the compli.
cation should continue.
Senator Cullom replied to the in.
CURRY that he had no knowledge of re-
cent events not contained in the pub
BIC prints. Senators Bacon, Hoar,
Lodge and Stewart all made remarks.
In none OF the addresses was anything
harsh or critical said. The tone of all
the speeches. whether by Republicans
or Democrats, was that the attitude
Of this nation should be one of watch
ment that while the means adopted by
Great Britain and Germany for the
collection OF their debts had been
quite strenuous. they thus far had
committed no infringement Of the
Monroe doctrine, and therefore had
done nothing to which the United
States could take exception.
New York, Dec. 17-E. Gonzales
Esteves, Venezuelan consul in New
York, received the following cable
gram Tuesday from DR.. Ferries Car
denas, President Castro's secretary,

presided over by Don Juan Esteven
Linares, a prominent merchant, was
held here Monday.
l.. "Qver 10000 people marched from
Washington Square to Bolivar Square,
where President Castro and cabinet
acknowledged the manifestation. Pres
ideat Castro received a unanimous
ovation, The principle Of the meeting
was to approve the patriotic stand
taken by the government. A battalion
uf students, voluntarily formed, acted
a. bodyguard to the president. The
enthusiasm throughout the republic to
stand by the government battles de-
seription,"
Caracas. Dec. 1.-THE italian min
lister to Venezuela, Signor De Riva,

The Spanish minister to Venezuela,
senior Gaytan de Ayala, and the Bel
CLAN charge d'affaires, M. van der
Hyde, have presented a joint letter to

fairs, in which they ask, in case the
claims of other foreign powers shall
be paid by Venezuela, that the same
treatment given these powers be ac-
corded to Spain and Belgium.
