DRAWS TWO YEARS
Henry Hoke VIII Soiourn in
State Prison


Judge Dickinson yesterday sentenced
Henry Hoke. the absconding treasurer of
the Structural Iron Workers union to two
years in the penitentiary for stealing 1862
OF the funds belonging to the organization.
Hoke's case was most peculiar. He left
ms family about a years ago and went to
Duluth, where he met young woman
whom he induced to follow him TO Port
land, Or, where they were married. and at
the time he was arrested were living in
coZy fiat
While living with the woman, at Port
land he was in constant communication
with his deserted wife and son in Mime
apolis and sent regular remittances up to
the time of his arrest on complaint of the
officers of the union. Neither of his wives
was cogniZant of the existence of the
other. and when he. was brought to Min
neapolis his lawful wife greeted him and
was most ANXIOUS spectator at the
trial, giving her husband all the consola-
tion possible. although he had deceived
her. The second wife has returned to her
home at Duluth.
The bigamy charge was not pressed by
either of the wives.

against the Chicago & North Western
for the death of her husband, who was

case to the state supreme court, which
had not yet rendered a decision.

the matter. and this was accomplished
by Mrs. Bopps accepting the sum of
$4,000 and costs in settlement of the
claim against the railroad company.

NEW GEYSER SPOUTS
ON WASHINGTON DAY
Hot Water Fountain Breaks
Forth on Birthday of Father
of Country

A new geyser in Yellowstone park
celebrated Washington's birthday by
coming to life. The spouter is close to
the site of Old Faithful and within a
dozen yards of the place where the for
gotten "Skyrocket' used to play.
Early in the morning of Feb. 22 the
troops who are stationed in the park
were attracted to the geyser basin by
subterranean rumblings, and as dozens
OF soldiers looked the new geyser burst
into the air and for hours played a
column of hot water 200 feet high
Since then there has been no erup-
ton of the memorial geyser, as the
new fountain was dubbed by the SOL
diers. 1t is supposed that the display
was caused by the Skyrocket breaking
through the underground and finding
a new outlet to the upper air.
Word of the eruption was received
yesterday at the general offices of the
Northern Pacific road by A b. Smith,
assistant general passenger agent

filter BOND DEAL
HITS AN OBSTACLE
City Charter Provides That Interest Can
not Be Paid From Water Board
Revenues

Aid. Duryea has called the attention OF
the city attorney to a section in the city
charter which provides that the interest
on city bonds shall be paid from an in
terest fund raised by general taxation.
The advocates of an issue of $1,000 900
of bonds for the purpose of establishing a
ty which Thomas Lowry has donated"
to the city have caused the city council
of Minneapolis to adopt a resolution which
provides that should the legislature au-
thorize the bonds which the people reject
ed at the general election the interest
shall be paid from the revenues OF the
water department and not from the gen.
eral interest fund created by law.
The bonds have not been authorized by
the legislature, but an argument for a
curative" act is to be made on the point
that the general public viii not pay the
interest on them, but only the persons
who use city water.

rendered unconscious, and with which
the nail securing the latch upon the
front door of the shop was driven
disappeared some time previous to the
murder from the kit of tools which an
other son. Charles Hartmann Jr.. had
left at home.
The Identification was made certain
through the letters &c. H." stamped
upon the head of the hammer, the in
itials of the owner. Other points of
identification was the shortness of the
handle and the general appearance of
the tool, which was perfectly familiar
to the elder Hartmann.
While unwilling to admit his sons
guilt, Mr.. Hartmann was positive in
this Identification, and was unable TO
tell the present whereabouts of his son,
who had seldom been at home for some
time before the murder and. who has
not been seen by any member of the
family since the crime was committed.
The police say that Hartmann has
borne an unsavory reputation for the
past two or three years. He has been
arrested several times, although never
upon a charge more serious than
drunkenness, or disorderly conduct.
Hartmann a Carpenter
He worked but little at his trade, that
of carpentry, but occasionally did an
odd job of repairing or building and in
this vocation which he piled so irreg-
ularly was the birth of another piece
of circumstantial evidence.
Hartmann always carried with him
quantity of nails, as is the habit of
many carpenters. Among these he gen.
orally had a number of that variety
known as finishing nails" slender,
small headed affairs. 1t was with a
nail of this kind that the latch on the
meat market door was secured.
All day yesterday the chain of cir
cumstantial evidence building against
Edward Gottschalk was being strength
ened, as, bit by bit, additional reports
OF the doings of the suspected man
were received. examined and found to
be true. Gottschalk himself was not
questioned by the chief yesterday.
Unless Gottschalk demands an i'm
mediate hearing nothing Will be done
in his case until the coroner's jury con-
venes Friday morning to hold the
Schindeldecker inquest. 1t is the wish
of the police and of the county attor-
ney's office that the preliminary ar
raignment be postponed until after the
second man is captured. Thus far
Gottschalk has expressed no wish for
an immediate hearing.
