interest and conscientiousness thew
had shown throughout the trial. He
stated he was aware of the many
difficulties which were necessary to
surmount before verdict could be
obtained and the reason for his be-
ing SO greatly concerned on account
OF disagreement was the fact of
tne great pecuniary cost to the
county, another trial would entail.
After again thanking the jury for
the manner in which they had dis
charged their duty the Judge stated
they would be discharged from all
further duty at this term of court.
Judge Webber also desired his
thanks and appreciation to be re-
ceiVed by the attorneys retained
by both the state and the defense
and the reporters who had been in
attendance during the case. He
stated he appreciated the courteous
treatment he had been accorded
during the trial from both attorneys
and newspaper correspondents.
Attorney for the defense, L. l..
brown, arose and requested that
before this term of court be ad-
Journed the attorneys for the de-
r.
fendant desired to be granted an
hour for consultation, which the
judge granted.
At eleven o'clock the ATTORNEYS
again met in the court room and
were again called to order by the
court.
Attorney Brown, in the interest
OF the defendant, made a motion for
an Immediate new trial. This the
court denied on the ground that
Gen. Childs, the prosecuting attor-
ney, in no measure desired such a
motion granted.
The defense made a second mo-
tion that the case be brought tn
trial again in Brown county, Feb.
lst or thereabouts, which was also
denied. A third motion by Attor-
ney Brown was that new trial be
granted during the regular May
term of court.
Gen. Childs offered the sugges-
lion TO the court that change Of
venue be taken, sustaining his ar

present plan, and the contractor
stipulates to make no extra charge
to the city for power and snperin-
tendence of additions to the mains
or service during the five years
covered by the contract.
Mr.. Burmeister was seen soon
after taking charge of the plant,
and admitted that there would be
little profit to him in running the
plant under existing conditions.
His purpose is to connect the pump
house with his mill with copper
transmission service as soon as it
can be brought about, and to buy G.
suitable pump to take the place of
the steam pump belonging to the
city. The power will be transmit
ted from the mill for pumping dur
ing the last half of each night, after
the demand for electric lights has
been supplied. By using the same
dynamo and the same plant, the
principal item will be additional
labor, added to the interest charge
on the large expense entailed in
cost of electric connections and
pumping machinery. The present
steam plant will be carefully looked
after and in case of emergency or
accident can be called into use at
any time, after the electric conuec-
tions are installed.
The letting of the contract will
retire G. L. Parkhill from the posi-
tion of superintendent of water
works, after nearly ten years con-
tinuous service. Mr.. Parkhill is a
competent, all around engineer and
machinist, and will probably
soon place himself where he can re-
ceive better salary than our city
can afford to pay. Certainly that is
the desire of a host of "Park's''
friends and associates in Redwood
Falls.

eliminating accusations.
Judge Webber questioned the
jury if they had any communication
to him and the answer was in the
affirmative. Clerk of Court John
Larson was handed the communica-
tion by the foreman of the iury.
Martin Penning, and he, in turn,
handed it to Judge Webber, who,
after reading it, broke the silence
Immediately by saying:
Gentlemen of the jury, you are
positive you cannot reach an agree
ment. y
The suspense was broken, a sigh
of relief escaped from those pres
ent in the court room. Although
this was the verdict expected the
fact was received with much great
er satisfaction than an expectation
based upon public sentiment.
When these words were uttered
by the Judge the defendant, who
had been leaning overin an attitude
of great interest in the finding
which would mean liberty, the gal
lows, or another period of incarcera-
tion in the county bastile, sat bolt
upright and received the cruel
words with resignation. The faces
OF those present in the court room
who were near and dear to him
showed evidence of the great strain
they had been subjected to. If
possible the defendant was the
least perturbed person in the court
room.
After the Judge had been informed
BY the foreman that in his opinion

POWER FOR WATER WORKS
City Contracts With A. c. Burmeister to
Furnish 1t With Power for
Five Years.
A Saving Of Over $4oo per Year
for the City the Main Induce
ment.

A. G. Burmeister took charge oil
the city'pumping station last Thurs
day, under a contract entered into
with the city council the day pre-
vious. Under the terms of the con-
tract Mr.. Burmeister assumes the
entire responsibility and cost of
operating the plant for the five
years at an annual cost of $500.
He agrees to furnish at his own
cost the power, the superintendence
and help necessary to supply the
water for the city system, and in
case of fires to supply direct pres
sure promptly after being notified.
He will keep the pump house and
machinery in repair, except that he
will not be responsible for wear
and tear or for injuries not arising
out OF any neglect on the part of
the operator, and is to return the
plant in good condition, with above
exceptions, at the expiration of the
contract period. The contract COW
ers the flushing of hydrants, super
intendence of extensions and chang
es in water and sewer systems, the
putting in of meters and making
monthly readings of the same. The
contractor is also to keep in repair
the electric connections between
the pumping house and water tow
er, and do all work that should be
done by superintendent of water
works and sewerage systems.
The council made the change by
unanimous vote, on the score of
economy for the city. The contract
price is about $4OO less than the
annual cost to the city under the

The jury in the case of DR.. Geo.
R. Koch, indicted for the murder
OF DIR. l.. A. Gebhardt at New Ulm
on the night of Nov. 1st, after spend
ing nearly 42 hours deliberating on
the case, returned a verdict of "not
guilty. !" The jury stood nine for
acquittal and three for conviction
on the final ballot, and it was then
that the members decided to report
a disagreement to the court.
Shortly before nine o'clock last
Friday morning the telephone wires
OF New Ulm flashed the intelligence
to those interested, that the jury
was coming in" There porters
were already in the court room, to-
gether with a few other interested
persons numbering probably fifty.
says the Journal. A death like
silence reigned over the courtroom,
greatly in contrast with the con-
gested scenes during the long and
spectacular trial. No gaily dressed
throng was present; no continual
whispering was evident, but an

AS the bailiff was ordered to

ST. LOUIS EXPOSITION
CREAM SEPARATOR AWARDS
From The Tribune Farmer.

The De Laval Company comes out
proudly in this issue with the announce
ment of its grand prize award just CIV
,en at the st. Louis exposition, show
ing that the De Laval easily holds it's
old position at the top of the separator
ladder. The New York Sun, in re-
viewing the exposition awards, peril
nently remarks:
THE Grand prize for centrifugal
cream separators has been awarded to
the DeLaval Separator Company, as was
ITO have been expected. showing that
there has been no material change in
relative position of the separator manu-
factnrers since the making of similar
awards at Buffalo, Paris, Chicago and
other previous expositions. The De Law
al exhibit at ST. Louis is a handsome
one, in keeping with the well known
prestige of these creaming machines,
which have done so much for modern
dairying and its products"
In reality the DeLaval won double
highest honors, since the creamery
package Mfg. Co., chief agents for the
sale of its factory machines, also car
ried of grand prize for its magnifi-
cent exhibit of creamery and dairy ap-
paratus and supplies.

from their own large display one is us

Mr.. Ernest Lamson left Wednesday
morning for Boston where he will
shortly commence his winter engage
ment in theatricals. He left feeling
fine and fully prepared for another

stated that his troupe contemplated a
western trip and would probably
make Phoenix a visit during the com

An amusing incident happened last
week in which a goat of the "gentler''
sex, whose duty is to supply the
younger generation of the Andrews
family with fresh milk, took the star
part. A couple of the ladies on the
way to the place of meeting of the
Bridge club suddenly found their way
disputed. There was certainly some
thing doing for a while but finally
by much maneuvering in which para
soils played an important part they
managed to get by without any seri-
Gus injury. 1t is safe to say that in
the future these two ladies will give
the Andrews wet nurse the complete
right of way.
