DR.. GEO. KOCH ARRESTED
Accused of the Crime of Numbering DR..
L. A. Gebhardt at New Ulm
on Night of Nov. /.
Arrest Made Friday Evening Prisoner
Waived Examination and
Held to Grand Jury.

DR.. G. r. Koch, the former pro-
fessional rival OF DR.. L. A. Geb-
hardt, the murdered dentist, was
arrested Friday eveningat s o'clock
on a charge of having been the MUIR
derer. The warrant, procured from
Justice Heningson, was sought at
the conclusion of the investigation
by the committee of citizens appoint
ed at a mass meeting held several
weeks ago to press the search for
the murderer of the dentist.
DR.. Koch was taken to the Brown
county Jail. He had hearing Sat
urday morning, when bail was
asked for on the ground that there

nocence, and in view of his good
reputation. The grand jury which
convened yesterday, probed the
murder case and the grounds upon
which DR.. Koch is held.
While it is not definitely known
upon what evidence the committee
based it's conclusions that the arrest
should be made. the attacks of de-
tectives upon his alibi may have
aided in the committees conclu-
sion.
Added to the fact that handker-
chief bearing DIR. Koch's initials
was found in the murdered man S
Office, is the evidence that blood
stains were found on the door of
the creamery at the foot of the hill
near DIR. Koch's residence. These
stains, plainly the imprint of a
bloody hand, have been preserved.
The door, which never was locked,
leads to the engine room, where
hot and cold water can be obtained
at any hour. The crimson marks,
which, it was pointed out, might
have been made by boys who had
been skinning rabbits, we're de-
clared to be higher on the door than
boy would naturally reach.

utation has been stainless.
On Friday night, after DR.. Koch
had babe his attorneys. goodnight
and retired to his berth he was
aroused by Sheriff julius and Chief
Klause and told that they wanted
imprints OF his thumbs. Following
out the telephone advice OF his at
torneys DR.. Koch refused, upon
which the two officers chained his
legs, handcuffed him. and then used
brutal force in endeavoring TO gain
the imprints on the paper prepared
for the purpose. A dozen or fifteen
'smears' were secured for the Chi
cage female expert on cuticles, but
whether they will be of any value,
owing to the unnatural conditions
under which they were secured, re
mains to be seen.
/ At the preliminary hearing of DR..
Koch, held Saturday afternoon, the
prisoner, upon the advice of his at
torneys, waived preliminary ex-
animation, and was bound over tc
await the action Of the grand jury,
which convened in New Ulm yes

been accustomed to take on his way
home from his Office leads by the
door of the creamery. Koch says
that on that night he went part
way up the hill to the second path
leading through the Herman Park.
He said be saw a rabbit, and that
when he got TO the house he went
to shed in the rear to get a gun 10
shoot the animal. The night OF
Tuesday, Nov. |, so residents say,
was in the dark of the moon, and
too black night, according to cer-
tain persons who have been inter
ested in the investigation, for any
one to have seen rabbit.
Within the last week woman de-
tective from Chicago has been in
New Ulm. She was an expert in
comparing finger prints in criminal
cases in order to detect the persons
by whom they were made. She ex-
amined the bloody evidence found
on the glass of the door through
which the murderer escaped, and
also other finger and hand marks
She is said to have asserted thai

LEGATIONS and to- might DR.. Koch was

LEGATIONS and tonight DIR. Koch was
arrested.
DR.. Koch seems to have estab-
lished an excellent alibi in his ex-
animation by committee of citizens
made at his request. Several high
~ reputable citizens corroborated
his assertions that he had met them
at certain hours during the even
ing of the murder. Moreover, his
father aud sister said he reached
home before Id O'Clock in the even
ing, about the hour the murder oc-
Cured.
Since he told his straightforward
story to the committee he has gone
cheerfully about his work at the
office, apparently believing his alibi
fully had convinced the authorities
that he had no connection with the
case.
No motive that might have led
DR.. Koch even TO seek an encoun-
ter either in words or blows with
DR.. Gebhardt, has been found
through all the constant inquiry
Koch has lived here for twenty -four
years Of his life, except during the
months that he spent at the Chicago

The grand jury will probably re-
turn an indictment, and the case
will then go over to the spring, or a
special, term of court.
