New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1905-12-27
KAUFMAN GETS OFF EASY
Draws One Year and Six Months
For Crime.
Pleads Guilty just Before Time
Set For Trial.
Jury in Beach Case Fails to Agree
on Any Verdict.

There is little bit of irony in the
fate of any man who is up for trial in
the December term of court in this
county, for if he is found guilty the
judge is forced to give him his sentence
as a sort of Christmas present and the
closing term of court in the week of the
holiday season, makes it possible for
him to eat his Christmas dinner with
the 700 other inmates of the state prison
at Saltwater.
Such is the fate of the man Kautf-
mann, whose pleading guilty saved the
county some cost and robbed some at
torney of the fees for defending him.
He was brought into court Wednesday
just before noon, and addressed the
judge in a petition for clemency, and
his address together with plea from
the wife of the prisoner who was will
ing to stand good for her husband,
seems to have softened the heart of the
judge for he surprised the prisoner
and the attendance at the court by the
lightness of the sentence imposed.
The law in the case would have made
it possible to have given him any
number of years up to ten, but the
judge evidently concluded thateighteen
months were sufficient to impress the
prisoner of the wrong he had done for
the rest of his life.
There is something sensational in the
Kaufman crime. He was sent here
by the Ryan commission house to dis
pose of a car load of apples, which he
did, but the irregular part Of the
, transaction was that he failed to &C.
count to his employers for the amount
of money that he took in for the apples.
He was arrested last January and
was tried in the Hennepin county court
but was not sentenced for the reason
that the crime having been committed
in this county the trial would have to
be held here.
Upon complaint prepared by E.
S. Carey, attorney for Kaufman, it
| was arranged that he was to secure an
! order for the release of Kaufman
from jail because of some technically,
and on the day set for the hearing and
anticipated release of the prisoner, to
prevent any attempt to have him re-
arrested after papers could be pre-
pared, an automobile and driver were
waiting near the jail, and the prisoner
was to be carried beyond the reach OF
the law, but there was some hitch in the
method of Mr.. Carey and the result was
that the auto was never used and the
prisoner was brought to this county
| where he has been waiting for the
court to pass on his case since some
time in June.
The jury in the Beach case failed to
| reach a verdict after having been out
from three O'Clock in the afternoon
until the converting of court on the
morning of the 22d. It is said that
the vote was seven to five in favor OF
the state.
This is the second disagreement in
the case and it will be tried again. 1t
is case of attempted assault alleged
to have been committed by the de-
PENDANT upon a young girl. There
seems to be lack of evidence even
approximating direct on either side,
though the state had stronger case
this time than it did last.

Maine Association Entertains.

The recent meeting of the Maine Asso-
citation was regarded as a pleasing success.
President o. H. Briggs presided, and an APP
preciative audience listened to the program
arranged by Mrs. F. W. Alexander, who
called the numbers. Mrs c. S. Feeser of
the Unity Club played the opening piano
solo, Hellers 'Tarantelle.''
Mr.. Burchenal was most happy in his
"reminiscences of trip to Australia In
search of gold, half a century ago, when
the voyage from New York occupied 105
days, and was considered rapid transit. A
native song, sung by Mr.. Burchenal was
one of the unique features of the recital.
Mr.. Pitt Pusifer sustained his reputation
as one of the realistic story tellers of the
twentieth century. Mrs. Ellen Vockey Sell
fert rendered in artistic manner THE Flow
ing of the Water and a Waltz de Con-
cert"
Frenchman's first impression of Lib
erty Enlightening the World in New York
harbor was graphically depicted by Mrs.
Feeser, while a stirring recitation of quite
different character given by Mrs. Seifert
aroused a thrill of patriotism. President
Briggs gave an amusing base ball reading.
Mrs. Seifert rendered a unique monologue
of the "man-hating woman driven to
matrimony through fear of burglars in a
style which captivated her audience. The
small girl who in the brief time at her COM
mand most effectually entertained her sis
ter's beau " was picturesquely described by
Mrs. Feeser.
Mrs. Seifert concluded the entertainment
by singing Nearer, My God to Thee" and
the society adjourned until April 10.

DEEMS THEM NOT ALARMING.
Minister Conger's Report on Anti
Foreign Movements in China.

Russia has been informed by the United
States that so far as Minister Conger, at
Picking, has been able to find out the report
ed anti-foreign movements in China are
not unusual in extent or character The
Russian government recently requested Sec
rotary Hay to inquire into this matter,
which was a cause of some anxiety at St
Petersburg.
Mr.. Conger says that during the past year
he received information at various times of
the existence and activity of certain secret
societies in the provinces of Shensi KanSuh
Hupeh, kiangsi, Honan, Chilli Shantung
kuantung and Kuangsi. These societies
have existed during the whole period of the
Manchu rule, and a result local rebellions
occur nearly every year. There is such a
rebellion now in the province of Kuangsi
The aim of these societies, Mr.. Conger says,
is the overthrow of the present Manchu
dynasty, and at times they have attacked
foreigners.
Mr. Conger finds that at present these So
cieties are not unusually active except in the
province of kuangsi, and that there the
movement is wholly ant-dynastic.
Before receiving his instructions Mr.. Con-
ger already had called the attention of the
Chinese foreign office to the reports in cir
culation and had been assured in note that
the rumors to Shunte were baseless; that
a society of bandits had been discovered at
Tzu Chou, in this province ChihlD, and sew
erai of it's members arrested, and that the
governor of Human had informed them of
the arrest and execution of two members of
the society at Anyang, in that province.
Concluding his report, Mr. Conger says:
II have the honor to state that in my
opinion, while more or less dissatisfaction
exists throughout the country. 1t is not un-
usual in extent or character. The secret So
cieties are chiefly anti-dynastic in their
aims but are also hostile to foreigners, and
were they able to effect general rising I'M
doubtedly would attack foreigners as well
as the imperial officers, civil and military.
But these societies. are. scattered over an
enormous extent of country. are widely. sep
arated from one another and are not work.

disturbance has been futile so far, except in
Kuangsi, and there the rebels hold nothing
but their mountain Businesses. The central
government is alert and determined to pre-
vent any disturbance of the peace, and ear

Boiling and Boilers.

Boiling. boiling everywhere, and not a
boss powerful enough to prevent. Even
boilers are boiling. Mr.. Cleveland's fol-
lowers are no better in this respect than
men of common clay. In spite of their
chiefs declaration for Tammany as the
bulwark against the rising tide of bad
things in New York, they are supporting
WINS and Jerome, and have had the temer
ity to call public meeting for Friday
evening to give expression against the
Tiger as an agent of sweetness and light
In municipal government. 1t is true, how
ever, that this action has been taken in
the absence of Mr.. Cleveland who has
been west on mission of respect to the
memory of J. Sterling Morton. But he is
back now, and we should hear that these
recalcitrants have been called to Prince
ton to give an account of deeds done in the
body, Verify is the New York campaign
one of suspense and surprise, with nobody
assured of what an hour may bring forth.
