them first and later accused them of
being strike-breakers. A notable in
stance of this kind was that of Rev.
w. K. Wheeler, pastor of the Ninth
Presbyterian church, who, while pass
ing the corner of Des PLANES and Adj
ans streets On his way to the union
depot, was attacked by three men,
who knocked him down and beat him
numerically until the timely arrival
of the police saved him from critical
injury. Mr.. Wheeler managed to hold
one of his assailants until the police
could arrest him.
One Man Killed.
AS far as known but one man was
killed during the day, but about forty
were more or less seriously injured.
Although it was announced Monday
night that the teams of the express
companies and the employers associa-
ton would be handled by men armed
with rifles yesterday, nothing of the
kind was attempted, save in the case
of the fifteen drivers employed by the
Scott Transfer company. Mayor
Dunno and Chief of Police O'Neill
made every effort to prevent the car
rying of rifles,
The strike yesterday did not spread
in any degree. No more men were
called out, and from present appear
ances there is no immediate prospect
that any more teamsters will strike.

POLAND AWED BY MILITARY.
Order Is Maintained Only by Strong
Arm of Military Force.

OFuSF Is MdlHtdlIiCO OiIiy Wy O1iN''S
Arm of Military Force.
st. Petersburg May 4. - Armed
peace prevailed in Poland yesterday,
following Mondays savage celebration
of May day. Warsaw, Sosnowiec,
LODI, Kalisz and other industrial cen
tiers had no repetition of Mondays
rioting and bloodshed, but order was
maintained only by the strong hand
of military force, which Mondays oc-
currences showed could be relentless
ly employed.
The first fruits of Mondays sowing
is a formidable strike of angered
workmen, which is spreading widely,
setting free thousands of employees
and increasing the difficulty of the au-
thorities in preserving order. Long
continued industrial troubles, howev-
er, have impoverished the Polish
workingmen and starvation will be an
active ally of the government in
bringing about resumption of work.
Death Roll Totals sixty-Two.
Warsaw, May 4. - The May day
death roll totalled sixty-two, including
ten persons who died in the hospitals
during the night Probably 200 were
wounded.
Crowds gathered at the Tenth dis
trict police station yesterday morn
ing where thirty victims, men and
women and three children, were
awaiting Identification.
Some minor disturbances occurred
yesterday in different sections of the
city, but no casualties have yet been
reported.
All day long infantry and cavalry
patrolled the streets which were
crowded with people who did not
spare their criticism of what was gen
orally termed unnecessary slaughter.
The
Popular Irritation
could not be concealed. The soldiers
evidently were nervous and open out
breaks resulting in a repetition OF
Mondays terrible scenes were only
averted by the evident desire of the
authorities to prevent clash, coupled
with the fear inspired by the soldiers
bullets. The population is most bitter
against the military and the govern
ment officials expect many attempts
at. revenge upon the officers com
manding the troops, all of whom are
known.
The Nationalist have arranged the
usual demonstrations for to-day, the
Hath anniversary of the proclamation
of the Polish constitution, and dis
turbances are highly probable. The
workingmen are in an ugly and I'M
certain mood.

Manka1O Mimi, May Al would
not disgrace a 1agpOle by hanging
such a man upon it, was the bitter
statement of ChaYes Silverson. may
or of New Ulm, while on the witness
stand yesterday afternoon, in refer
ence to DR.. George r. Koch, the al
legged murderer of DR.. Louis Gebhardt.
Silverson was called shortly after
the noon recess, and while his teStl-
mony had no great bearing upon the
evidence deduced at the trial itself, it
showed the bitter feeling existing
among a certain faction in the little
city where the murder was commit
ted. The witness testified that he
went to the home of DR.. George Koch
about ten days after the murder, and
was accompanied by Andrew Eek
stein, Mr.. Hoffman, DR.. Weiser and
Ferdinand Krone, members of the
citizens committee appointed to in
vestigate the murder. At the house
Miss IDA Koch, sister Of the accused
of her brothers handkerchiefs, and to
the best recollection of the witness all
were marked &c. r. K"
After statement of this evidence
the witness, who had been mayor of
New Ulm for some years prior to the
murder of DR.. Gebhardt. was cross
examined by the defense and showed
hisbitterness and strong feeling
against DR.. Koch by saying he be-
lieved him guilty and would like to
see him hanging as high as any mill
chimney.
Beyond the testimony of Silverson,
practically the whole day yesterday
was spent by the state in an attempt
to prove that DR.. Koch was the one
who sent the bottle of poison to DR..
Gebhardt a week before the murder.
E. G. Hage, Hanska banker, and
J. N. Thompson, station agent for the
Minneapolis & st. Louis road at
Hanska, testified to seeing the mail
ing of a square box to Gebhardt at
New Ulm the same day that DR.. Koch
moved from his branch Office at Han
ska.

DR.. KOCH AGAIN ON TRIAL
CHARGED With, the Murder of Dr.. Gebhardt
at New Uln1.

the handkerchief came to our house
as he said, but my sister told him
then that the handkerchief in question
was not mine. She told him this, and
another who was present at that time
will swear to it. This other witness
is no relative of mine, and his evil
dence will be accepted anywhere as
against the testimony of the witness
of whom l speak,
At this DR.. Koch reassumed his
wonted silence. Urge him as you
might he would say no more.
Defense's Claim.
Sheriff julius will testify that the
sister of the defendant did not identi-
fly the handkerchief as one OF
Georges" said one of the attorneys
for the defense yesterday.
TWO Star Witnesses.
Saturday the state placed on the
stand two of it's star witnesses, Miss
Lena Weidermann, who, testified that
she had seen DR.. Koch in his office
one half-hour before the murder OF
Dr. Gebhardt was committed, wearing
a SLOUGH hat and apparently taking
something from the wall and placing
it in his pocket; and Mrs. Wilhelmina
Dahms, who testified to hearing the
sound of running feet, after she had
gone to bed, and of finding blood
stains on her gate post the next morn
ing.
Mr.. Abbott put Mrs. Dahms through
a severe cross-examination, but failed
to weaken her testimony.

Mankato. Mimi, May 3.-In view of
the evidence presented in the Koch
trial yesterday it is doubtful If the
state will be able to prove conclusive
ly that the hammer found near the
murdered body of DR.. Louis A. Geb-
hardt was the one owned by the
young dentist who is charged with the
crime.
Heretofore, the evidence, with the
exception of that of Mrs. Kars, has
tended to prove that the hammer was
one owned by the Koch family, but
DR.. G. F. Renieke, whose office joined
DR.. Gebhar0ts admitted on the stand
yesterday that he identified the ham,
mer at the coroner's inquest as one
belonging to DR.. Gebhardt. He said:
First Said 1t Was Gebhardt's.
'In my own mind | had connected
the hammer found near the murdered
man with one I had heard DR.. Geb~
hardt speak of long before this. AS
Asa Brooks said that the hammer
found near the murdered man be-
longed to d. Gebhardts Office. I at
last came to the conclusion that he
was right and that it was GebhardtS
hammer. Because of this conclusion
I told the coroner's jury the next
morning that the hammer, which was
then shown me, was fixture Of DIR.
Gebhardts office; that I had seen it
there before"
The Ladysmith news and Ingram news. [volume] (Ladysmith, Wis.) 1905-1906, 1905-05-06

"But," Dr. Renieke said, upon
closer consideration, now say that
the hammer did not belong about the
office of DR.. Gebhardt. so far as
know"
