TWO MORE DECISIONS.
Judge Quinn Finds Against Trustee Of
M. X. Armstrong.
From Monuay's Daily.

Judge Quinn filed two more decisions
at st. James Saturday, in cases grow
ing out of the financial embarrassment
of Moses X. Armstrong. In the case
vs.. Martha Armstrong, to impress a lien
of 100000 on the Park Hotel for the

amount of money toward erecting the
defendant. 1t was shown during the
trial that Mr.. Armstrong did not con-
tribute such large sum as claimed
In the case of the same trustees
against the same defendant, to set aside
conveyances of property to the amount
of $4,000 to her from different people
at different times, on the claim that Mr..
Armstrong had paid the consideration,
the court made an order for the defend
ant, denying the relief asked for by the
plaintiff
In these two cases Leo S. Lamm and
W. G. Hoerr of this city stood back of
the defendant, for they are now holding
by deed the Park Hotel and other prop
erty involved in the suits, as security
for money loaned by the late Stephen

HUBBY MADE A GETAWAY.
This After He Had Promised WHEY to
Be Good.
From Fridays Daily.

Telling his wife that he wished to
seek fresh fields and richer pastures, a
retail liquor dealer of Mankato some
time ago disposed of his business here
and went to a town in the western part
of the state, where he engaged in the
same line of trade After a time, the
wife who had been left to remain here
until he should get himself well estab-
lished in his new location, thought she
would 90 out and give her spouse a
surprise. On arriving at Their destination,
she was Mortified to learn that her
husband had been living with another
woman. The two were keeping house in
a suite of living rooms above the saloon.
At a most unexpected moment the wife
appeared before the man. Though tax
en- entirely unawares, the husband was
nevertheless equal to the occasion. He
folded his forgiving spouse to his own
repentant heart, and the two seemed
once more to be as one. He promised
he would mend his ways. He would
have nothing more to do with the wom-
an whom he kept as his housekeeper in
the living rooms above the saloon. He
would be a good, faithful, lawabiding
husband, and would do what was right.
The fully credrlOuS and overjoyed
wife forgave him with all her heart. Go
ing to a hotel nearby, she passed the
night planning, meditating and dream
ing over the reformed career that her
spouse was going to lead. She pictured
him telling the other woman that he
cared to have nothing further to do with
her, and he had a good woman to live
with now, and was going to keep in
the straight and narrow path of righte
BUSINESS.
Early the next morning the wife, still
buoyant with hope and happiness, ma,le
her way once more to her husbands
quarters What was her establishment to
find the place locked up and no sign of
life within! She inquired for her hus-
band and found that during the night
he had disposed of his effects, convert
ing them all into. money, and accom-
panied by his housekeeper, still charm
ing in his sight, had disappeared for
parts unknown. Such was his reforma-
ton.

City Sells One and Is Looking Fol-
Another.
From FRIDAYS Daily,

The city has disposed of the bay team
that it has been offering for sale for
some time. The purchaser was f. j.
Whipple, and he has since disposed of the
team to Mr.. Buck, buyer of horses.
The city treasury has been enriched
the sum of $3.50 by the sale, and the fire
department got rid of a team that never
did good service for it. The team has
belonged to the department for three
years or thereabouts.
The city desires to buy another team
to take the place of the one sold, but
will be slow to make purchase until
those delegated to make it are perfect
ly satisfied that they have found what
they want. In the meanwhile team be-
longing to Martin Wiltgen is being used.

Especial to The Free Press.

New Ulm, Nov 2l.-Mayor Silverson
Frank H. Retzlaff, Ferdinand Crone, Al
bert Pfaender and w. Eibner, five of the
most prominent citizens of New Ulm
have been selected as committee to
work out the mystery which surrounds
the murder of Dr. L. A. Gerhard. This
committee was selected at a meeting
of the citizens on Saturday night. AT
this same meeting fund of over ST.
600 was raised to assist the gentlemen
named in their labors. 1t is expected
that this amount will be increased to
more than $4,000 within a few days.
The meeting of Saturday night was
called at the instigation of Mayor Sill
version and others who have felt all
along that the officials have not display
ed the vigor that the case demanded.
Purpose of the Meeting.
The mayor briefly stated the purpose
of the meeting, saying among other
things that he had been told there were
men in the city who knew things that
they would tell if they were not afraid
of being arrested for malicious prose
cution. He said it was with view to
appoint committee before whom these
people might appear without fear and
give their information that the meeting
was called.
Upon the mayors recommendation At
torney Popham addressed the audience
asserting he was there to advise the
friends and not to work against or to
influence the people against the authori.
ties, and he suggested the appointment
of the committee recommended by the
mayor. His address was full of feeling
for his murdered boyhood friend and had
an answering sympathy in the vast
audience before him.
At the conclusion of Mr.. Popham's ad
dress set of resolutions embracing the
suggestions made by the mayor and the
attorney were read and adopted without
discussion, Incorporating the appoint
ment of committee to have charge OF
the work of ferreting out the criminal
and of collecting funds to carry on the
work.
Contributions Came Fast.
Mayor Silverson called for contribu-
tions and met with hearty response
$l,lO0 being raised in less than five
minutes. This amount is only a nucleus
for the formation of sum sufficient to
prosecute the work in the best possible
shape. The action of the meeting has
brought relief to the people, for it salts
fed a desire on their part to. assist in
a financial way in the search for the
murderer. Mayor Silverson, being nam
ed in the resolutions as chairman of the
committee to be appointed by him, nam
ed as his assistants Frank HI. Retzlaf
