YOUNG MAN KILLED.

The first accident at the plant of the
Wausau Paper Mills Co. to result fatally
happened at an early hour Thursday
morning, when VIM. Dreyer, of this
city, was killed. The young man had
worked in the mill about week, being
engaged on the night shift That
morning he was engaged in oililg one
of the large machines, work which is
prohibited green hand. A shaft, sus-
pended few feet above the floor, was
running at the rate of about sixty revo-
lutions minute, and young Dreyer, to
get nearer his work threw his leg over
this He had on a pair of loose fittjIg
overalls and these caught on tie
shaft. Realizing the position he wa
in he cried for help but the next second
he was thrown to the floor and at every
revolution of the shaft his head struck
the planks. The machine tender heard
his cry and throwing off the belt JIM
mediately stopped the machinery, but it
was found that the young fellow was
dead. His brain was ooZing out of his
head and nearly every bone in his body
was broken The superintendent inn
mediatly called up Mr. Edmonds and
the coroner in this city and notified
the young mans father aud the latter
made request that the body be left
where it was until he could hold az in
quest. Next morning coroner's jury
was empaneled composed of r. N.
Larner, Frank Kummerow, Geo. Farm
ham, A q Tubbs, r. E. Powers and q.
Westcott who rendered verdict in ac-
cordance with the above statement.
The young man was son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Peter Dreyer, living at $40 Sey-
mour street, the latter being absent
from the city at the time of the acci-
dent. He was born in the town of
Marathon nearly nineteen years ago
and had been residJn of Wausau for
about three years. Besides his parents
he leaves five sisters and three brothers.
The funeral was held Saturday morn
ing from St. Mary's church.

The men who think President Roosevelt
cannot be elected because of the Oplpsi-

are equally certain that the party gener-
ally Is SO committed to him that he must
be nominated, and that the rank and file
OF the voters, If anybody else should be
nominated, would bury him out Of sight
under an adverse majority.
All doubts on this point was swept away

country by members of the national re-

BENNINGTON MURDER CASE.
Lawyers Have n Lively Wranglc over
Statements of Pcrhnm.

Bennington, Dec. ia spirited wraugle
between counsel regarding testimony
given by Leon Perham at the murder trial
of Mrs. Mary n. Rogers occurred when
the trial was resumed in the Bennington
county court yesterday.
Statements by defendants counsel that
Forham had contradicted himself on Ger
tain points brought forth strenuous OBJ
lection from the prosecution, and an eX-
haustive examination of the stenoEraph-
ors notes was made before the discussion
was brought to a close.
The particular point made by the dc
Tense was in connection with the bottle
of chloroform alleged to have been used
by Mrs. Rogers. The examination OF the
stcnOgraphcrs notes developed the fact
that Perham first stated that the woman
took the bottle from the bosom of her
dress and later that she took ii from n
stone wall. where it had been concealed
After this point had been settled, the
discrimination of DR.. ~ j. Wits.
director OF the State laboratory IF hygiene
of Burlington, who was on the stand when
court adjourned last night, was resumed.
AS a result Of long series of Hypothetical
questions, DIR. Wiltse testified that chlor-
oform administered in the manner in
which Mrs. Rogers IL alleged to have used
it would cause death by asphyXiation.
With reference to tho cut found over
ROgers's eye DR. Wiltsie said such a
wound might have been caused by a
blow sufficiently heavy to render the vie
tim unconscious. He admitted on re-
direct examination. however. that the in
jury might have been caused by Rogers
striking his head on u stone while en-
dcaVoring to free himself of the cord
with which he had been bound,
james &. Riley, formerly in charge of
the Bennington Office of tho company
which had issued $500 policy on Rogers :
life. testified regarding Mrs. Rogerss eff
forts to collect the face of the policy af-
ter her husbands death.
After several witnesses had testified re-
sarding the strained relations which had
existed between Rogers and his wife for
several years, the court court adjourned
until next Monday afternoon.
