MINNEAPOLIS, Mimi. Oct. 19.-Sherin
Dreger to-day lodged Adolph Kadelberth in
Jail here for having set fire TO the barns
and warehouses on half dozen farms near
Loretto. in this county. The prisoner de-
clares disappointment in love crazed him.
Successive rejection of his wooing by
women of his neighborhood preyed on his
mind. He became convinced that their
parents were in league to rob him of the
prospect of happiness. So, he explains, he
sought revenge in fire.
The farmhouses of Charles Piper and
Jacob Spurzem, whose daughters had most
recently rejected Kadelberch, were first
fired. Then the torch was applied to the
barns of Leonard Miller and Charles
Thomas. At the latters farm Kadelberch
was captured.
Meanwhile word had been sent along the
Rockford road that Kadelberch had become
crazy and was trying to burn up Hennepin
county. Hundreds of farmers stood guard
over their homes all last night with shot
guns, Sheriff Winterholter concealing the
fact of Kadelberchs arrest for fear of vio-

the American coal strike has been taken
generally as unfavorable TO the German

States. Many operators. however. point
out that the recent shipments 10 the United

irons. however. was found in the numerous
price reductions on half rolled iron goods.
and the publication of more annual re-

foregoing factors resulted In an average
drop in irons Of about points. Coal shares
showed considerable resisting power dur

STORY OF A TRAGEDY
FRANKLIN BUSCH HAYS WRITES OF
GEORGE FITzGERALD's DEATH.
In Letter to His Father He Says the
Shooting Was Accidental and
Result of q Prank.

DR.. Franklin w. Hays yesterday received
a letter from his son, Franklin Busch Hays,
who is a student in Professor David K.
Gosss American college at Strassburg, AL
SAGE. Germany. giving account of the
deplorable death Of George Fitzgerald, son
of p. H. Fitzgerald, of Indianapolis. at
Strassburg on Oct. 4. The letter shows
that the tragic death was entirely the result
of an accident. DR.. Hays is confident that
Professor Goss exercised all possible pre-
caution. and attributes the accident to the
irresistible tendency of boys to tamper with
dangerous weapons. He considers that no
blame attaches to Professor Goss, and that
the distressing event grew out of circum-
stances beyond his control. The letter fol-
lows:
"You have probably heard of the most
sorrowful accident that occurred here some
time ago. This is short account of 1t.
Saturday morning. Oct. 4. about o'clock,
George Fitzgerald, the younger of the two
brothers, aged fourteen. was accidentally.
while playing with Donald Goss, shot and
killed by the latter.
"The two were in Donald's room (it may
have been Georges, / am not at present
sure) when George picked up a rapier and
ran at Don, who was lying on the bed, say
ing. iduSI-AlSiy, IoOh HOW QUICKLY Il cOulu
kill you. Don took a revolver lying on
the bed by him, and. thinking that it was
empty, pulled the trigger three times. The
third time IL went of, shooting George
through the great artery leading down from
the heart.
RAN TO THE DOOR,
George ran to the door. saying some
thing that was not comprehended and then
ran down the corridor toward his room, but
fell In heap just before he reached it,
Donald went to all the rooms on the
third floor, on which the accident occurred

Gods sake to hurry down.
1T happened that Mr.. Goss was just
turning the corner of the hall and that
room. Strangely enough, We all met al
most. or. in fact. where George fell. All
of us thought that he was pretending. For
some time the younger boys had been
playing with swords, revolvers and other
dangerous weapons in most reckless way
and pretending to be seriously hurt.

him in and put him on his bed. He was
then unconscious and blood was running

STRIKE ORDERED OFF.


CHICAGO, Oct. 19.-The Chicago Fedora
ton of Labor went on record as a strike
breaker to-day, when, by an almost unan-
imous vote Of the delegates. the striking
members of the Wholesale Grocers' En-
ployes' Union were ordered to return TO
work pending the settlement of their trou-
BILE by arbitration. Five large stores had
been tied up, and two more were threat
ened.
This action on the part Of the Federation
was brought about by the fact that its
executive board was party to agree
ment between the wholesale grocers and
their men, which was drawn up In Sep
tember. The paper contained provisions
for the arbitration of all difficulties, and the
strike was called on Friday before any such
arbitration had taken place. The MEM
bers of the striking union who were pres
ent left the hall In a body.
