different parties. The imprint of the
same finger of the same individual is
invariably the same, the corrugations of
the skin in each case being alike.
Yet the prints made by different indi-
viduals are never the same. This morn
ing several members of the office force
of The Free Press did the same and
found that the corrugations in no two
individuals were exactly alike.
A further circumstance in the muir
der of DR.. Gerhard is that he was struck
with the knife in the carotid artery.
How did the assailant know this vital
spot so well? The wound was evident
ly inflicted by some one who had good
knowledge of the human anatomy.

YOUNG MAN STRICKEN.
Albert Payne Succumbs to An Attack
of Pleuro-Pneumonia.

From Saturdays Daily.
Albert Payne died at the home of
Joseph Schooner in Rapidan at 9:30
o'clock this forenoon, of pleuro-pneu-
monia. He was the son of Mr.. and Mrs.
Burt Payne and was twenty years of
age. He had been visiting his brother at
Walker, Mimi, and from going through
the snow and from other exposure he
contracted the disease. He returned to
Blue Earth county week ago, and the
next night was taken sick Both of his
lungs were involved, and it was seen
at once that the case was very SER
rious one, with the outcome doubtful.
The deceased was an excellent young
man, well liked by all who knew him,
and his death is shock to all of these.

SOME NEW EVIDENCE.
Said to Have Been Gathered By the
Citizens Committee.
Especial to The Free Press.I

New Ulm, Dec. l2.-Attorncy w. d
Abbott, one Of the counsel for the de
Tense in the Koch case, stated today
that the assault and battery charge
against Sheriff Julius and Chief of Pc
lice Klause would be pushed. Klause
denies that undue force was used in or.
der to secure the finger prints from
Koch.
1t has leaked out that the citizens
committee has two witnesses who will
testify that the hammer found in Geb-
hard's office after the murder was one
they had seen on the Koch premises
prior to the fatal night.
Evidence has also been obtained which
goes to show that stychnine was secured
from doctors office in the same build
ing as that in which Dr. Koch's dental
rooms are located. This stychnine is
believed to be the same which was sent
to DR.. Gerhard on the day following
Koch's visit to Hanska, week or SO
prior to the murder This bottle which
contained the strychnine is one which
had been used for headache medicine
and it is said that it has been recog-
niged as one that had been in New
Ulm. 1t will be remembered that the
box containing this bottle was mailed
on a Minneapolis \ st. Louis train
but just at what point has not been de-
termined
The committee has evidence, so it is
claimed, that will 60 far to prove to the
murder Koch and Gebhard were not on
friendly terms. In fact certain people
go so far as to say Chat they were ene-
mics. TsS 1A
Chief of Police Klause, so it is
said, recalls the attitude of the coun-
ty coroner, when the chief called his
attention to the handkerchief found in
Gebhard's office and which bear the ini-
tials, Sc. R. X" The coroner, so it is
charged by the chief, did not take much
stock in. the handkerchief, and hesitated
so it is alleged about bringing the ar
ticle to the attention of the coroner's
jury. IilSa5yW
1t is stated on the authority of Chief
of Police Klause himself that within a
week following the murder, he was sat
isfed in his own mind, from what evil
dence that he had collected, with the as
sistance of Detective Rydell, that Koch
should be placed under arrest.
Today Philip Leisch, editor of The
Journal, stated that politics has had
nothing to do with his criticism of
County Attorney Hoidale. 1t has been
Mr.. Liesch's opinion all along that the
county attorney should do his duty
fearfessly and without fear or favor.
Koch's confinement does not affect his
appetite, and much of his time is spent
in singing. He possesses a fine baritone
voice. He appears to be cheerful despite
his unfortunate situation.
Another report which is said to en-
anate from the citizens committee, is
that the writing on the label attached to
the bottle received by Gerhard is SINH
lar to Koch's. The one word sample
is written on the label. 1t is the inten-
tion of the committee to secure experts
to investigate this feature of the case
Koch had not been allowed bail up to
three o'clock this Afternoon.

1t is thought by Chief Jacobson that
the third man in the gang of safe blow

that he went to st. James. 1t is expect
ted to capture him at Mountain Lake to-

join the other two there, unless he hears
of their arrest.
The catch is conceded by all to have
been good one, and well executed.
