KARDASCn IS INNOCENT
Arrested Friday Morning
and Released Wednes-
day Afternoon

Mrs. Kate Weiner, who is held on
the charge of the murder of her hus-
band, accused John Kardasch the H.
yearold son of Lorenz Kardasch of
Culdrum of being implicated In the
deed. Accordingly last Friday morning
Sheriff Tanner went out to the young
mans home and brought him to the
county Jail. He was arrested while on
his way to Flensburg cemetery to
dig the grave for the murdered man.
Mrs. Wiener claims that the deed was
tn be committed on Monday night,
bat for some reason or other Kardasch
did not show up then, but did on the
following night. AS to the story that
she had previously been telling as to
the tramps in feminine attire being
the murderers of her husband. she
claims was taught her by Kardasch.
She was also to notify Kardasch' 4
father first OF the deal, of which she
did, which the s.sscoroner's inquest
shows.
Mrs. Wiener claimed that the object
Of the crime was to get Weiner out ot
the way, and then Kardasch would
marry her. It will be remem.
tered that during the coroner's ir
quest Kardasoh testified as to hearing
the murdered man say "she'' wher
asked as to who had used him go
This evidently was communicated tt
her In some way by someone. and il
her desire to punish him, made ths
statements against Kardasch Mrs
Wiener has since denied making any
such confession, she evidently finding
! out that she was lncriminating her
self. She now sticks to her frs
statement.
Kardasch was released from custody
Tuesday afternoon. there being NJ
grounds on which tp hold him on
There is no question but that Kar
dasch is entirely innocent of tn
crime.
| Mrs. Wiener has been confined il
the Jail at st. Cloud on account of tn
crowed condition of the Jail, but will
be brought up from there today fo
prelimary examination.
