The inquest over the murder of
Christian Schindeldecker, Feb. IS. 1905.
was held at the county morgue yester-
day morning. Much the same evidence
as was introduced at Gottschalk's pre-
iiminary hearing was heard, and most
of the witnesses who appeared at the
hearing were put on the stand at the
morgue. Walter Gerenz, clerk for
Scnindeldecker at the time of the muir
der, told of meeting Gottschalk and
another man near the shop between ~
and O'Clock on the day of the muir
der. Drs. Finnell and Goodrich testi-

and number OF the wounds found on
Schindeldecker's body. Coroner Miller

all his possessions, including his pic
lures. A search was made for Hart
mann. but the missing boys father de-
clared' that his son had been thrown
into the river by Gottschalk.
Gottschalk was confronted by the
elder Hartmann, and when asked when
he had last seen Joe replied Wednes-
day, Feb. %. Hartmann was last seen
by his folks and friends on Monday,
Feb. 20. Chief O'Connor quietly noted
Gottschalk's statement that Hartmann
might have committed the crime and
his suspicion that Hartmann was in
the river was strengthened. He or
dered the river dragged by a detail Of
patrolmen, and yesterday the body
was brought to light.
A peculiar incident Connected with the
finding of Hartmanns body is that the
graphing irons used to recover the
body were purchased by Chief O'Con-
nor at the time Detective Tom Hag-
gerty was drowned last November.
Haggerty's body was recovered with
out the aid of the irons. however, and
they were used for the first time in the
search for Hartmann.

Germ Diseases.

These are the known germ diseases;
all due to- germs or to the poiSons
which germs create. These are the dis
eases to which medicine does not ap-
ply. for drugs cannot kill inside germs.
All that medicine can do for these
troubles is to act as tonic, aiding
Nature to overcome the germs. But
those results are indirect and uncer-
tain, depending on the patients condi-
ton. A cure is always doubtful when
drugs are used, and some of these dis
eases medicine never cures.
Liquozone alone can destroy the
cause of these troubles. 1t goes wher-
ever the blood goes, so that no germ
can escape 1t. The results are almost
inevitable. Diseases which have re-
sisted medicine for years yield at once
70 L;quoZone. 'Incurab le' diseases are
cured by it. In any stage of any dis
ease in this list the results are so GER
tain that we win gladly send to any
patient who asks it an absolute guar
anty.

Skull Badly Crushed
On the back of the head on the right
side of the skull were discovered two
wounds, evidently inflicted by a sharp
pointed instrument, either of which
was fatal. One of the cuts nearest the
right ear had penetrated the wall or
the skull deep into the head, causing
compound fracture at the base of the
skull. The second wound was just
above the first and also penetrated
the skull, but was not as deep as the
former.
The position of the wounds showed
that the blows had been delivered
from behind, probably with an ice
chisel, which is sharpened at the end
and is about four feet in length.
The theory of the police is that

the murderer again raised the weapon

BODY OF HARTMANN
IS FOUND IN RIVER
Continued From First Page

Steve Mclean, a boom hand, started to
drag the river, commencing some dis
tance below the dam, where Hartmann
disappeared and gradually working
their way towards Pixies island.
While between the island and the
south shore of the river. where the
current ran swiftest and the water
was very deep, Guion, who was operat-
Ing the graphing hooks, obtained a
grasp on an object that yielded to his
touch. After considerable difficulty the
object was secured and slowly raised
to the surface.
Suddenly Mclean, who was leaning
over the side of the boat assisting in
the drawing in of the graphing hooks,
exclaimed in a startled voice:
1T is the body of man.
The corpse by this time had been
hauled to the Surface and lay alongside
the boat, bobbing up and down in the
current.
The boat headed for the island and
the body drawn up on the shore. 1t
was here the SearcherS discovered the
sadirons attached to the legs of the
corpse and Immediately came to the
conclusion that the dripping body was
that of Joseph Hartmann.
Chlef O'Connor was notified at once
and left for the scene Immediately, as
did also Coroner Miller.
Body Brought to Morgue
The body had been discovered in
Dakota county, but permission was
obtained from Coroner Krahmer to re-
move it to the Ramsey county morgue
and the morgue wagon was taken to
the island by means of ferry. Owing
to the condition of the roads the
morgue wagon was over two hours on
the way home, not arriving at the
morgue until almost o'clock

Charles Hartmann testified to seeing
the ball and ring, but said he did not
know what 1t was for. His brother
had purchased the article in Chicago.
In the coat pocket was discovered a
number of newspaper clippings and a
handkerchief. The clippings were wa

oner Miller took possession of them and

clippings were those telling the story
of the Schindeldecker murder.
The handkerchief was an ordinary

Several dark stains were found in
the center of the handkerchief, but

Kills Inside Germs.

The greatest value of Liquozone lies
in the fact that ii kills germs in the
body without killing the tissues, too.
And no man knows another way to do
1t. Any drug that kills germs Is a
poison, and Ii cannot be taken inter
nally. For that reason medicine Is al
most helpless in any germ disease.

sobbed Charles Hartmann, brother Of
the dead man.
Yesterday evening, shortly before s
o'clock, the body discovered in the Mis-
sissippi river, between the Omaha rail-
road tracks and Pixies island, arrived
at the county morgue. A large crowd
gathered about the doors of the
morgue, but was held in check by the
police.
James Hartmann, father of the miss
ing boy, had been informed that a body
thought to be that of his son had been
discovered in the river, and, with a
younger son, was waiting upstairs when
the body was brought into the morgue

The words, the tone and the manner

sorrow, and after a long look at his
dead sons features, distorted and COW

lapsed.
Gently the father was escorted from
