MISSING MAN is
NOT YET LOCATED
Racine, Wis.,, jewelers. Whereabouts
Still a Mystery to His Family
and Employers.

Racine, Wis, April 17.-John Jacob
son, the Racine jeweler, who left for
Chicago last Sunday night without
notifying his wife or the employers for
whom he had worked seventeen years,
has not yet been located, although his
wife and friends have lert nothing un-
done that might throw light upon his
movements.
The motive that prompted jacobson
to apparently desert his family and his
employers seems to be unfathomable,
as the matters under his charge at the
store have been found to be in first
class condition and his home relations
were known to have been happy. The
fact that he threw his light overcoat
upon the railroad track as he was
about to board the train would appear
to Indicate that he wished to conceal
his purpose under the suspicion of
suicide.

moved from it's pedestal in City park, a
heroic statue to William Mckinley,
which had been erected by citizens as
a memorial. Hillman alleges that the
statue had not been paid for. Taking
advantage of the absence of all city
officials at a municipal league meet
ing Billman backed a wagon against
the base Of the monument, and with
block and tackle transferred the monu.
ment to the back yard of his home.
The monument was arranged for by
committee of citizens shortly after
McKinley's assassination. Subscrip-
ton papers were circulated to raise
funds, but through some mistake, Bill
man alleges, he was never compen-
stated. Many persons peacefully
watched Billman cart away the statue

LEWIsToWN, Dec. l9.--James Sher-
man, the l9.year-old boy arrested
here last Friday for completely in the
Samuel Studzinski murder of Aug. %
last, in this city, has made another
confession, aud. as a consequence the
men who were arrested upon bis pre-
vious statements have been dis.
charged.
In his confession, which was written
at his d%ictation and signed by him,
Sherman says that all other state
meuts made since his arrest have been
false. On account of his mother, he
has refrained from telling the truth,
but he has now concluded that it is
best to tell all regardless of the con-
sequences. He confess to several
burglaries at the Golden Rule store,
to the postofiice burglary and to other
local crimes, and then he says that be
alone, without the completely, aid,
knowledge or %connivance Of any other
person, either before or after the
crime, murdered Studzlnski.
AT no place in his confession does
Sherman express any regret or re-
morse or any realization Of the prob
able consequences. After he had
signed the statement, he called in his
father and mother and told them he
had told the truth, but did not ex-
press any sorrow.
Immediately following the signing
of the confession by Sherman, County
Attorney Roy E. Ayers directed the
release of the men who had been
named by Sherman, in previous state.
