The Redwood gazette. [volume] (Redwood Falls, Minn.) 1873-1940, 1906-03-28

He came in this morning to take
the train on to ST. Cloud, but the
officers in the meantime had visited
Osakis and found his baggage in the
station. They could not learn where
he had gone, but. instructed the
village marshal and station agent to
be on the lookout for him.
Schul claims that he committed
the murder on March 18th, and
that he did it in self-defense. His
written statement is as follows:
'The trouble was caused because
| wanted to give up the job and
go home. My father had sent me
$50 and | had arranged to return,
but Wagner objected. Early last
Wednesday morning | dressed, in
tending to go anyway, but Wagner
stopped me. A quarrel followed
and Wagner attacked me with a
hammer.
We had tussle and in the excite
ment my hand in some way grabbed
my gun, and just as Wagner was
about to strike me fired. aimed

dead on the bunk, and | then tried

strongest evidence against him. He
informed some of the neighbors that
Wagner had robbed him of $50
which his father had sent him and
had gone to Canada.
The murderer had left trail of
blood stains in dragging the body
to the swamp, and to account for
this Schul circulated the story that
he had collected all Of his wolf
traps, fourteen in number, which
he had set in various parts of the
swamp, and dragged them up to the
shanty. He asserted further that
he had shot rabbit and tied it to
the traps as he was bringing them
in, and had never seen a rabbit
bleed SO much as this one did; that
it left blood stains all along the
trail. His story would have de-
ceived the neighbors had it not been
for the fact that some of those who
had not heard it happened along
and, following the trail into the
swamp, found that it came to a
sudden end at a mound of snow.
Digging into the mound, they were
shocked to find Wagner's body.
Schul came to this city and bought
a ticket for Osakis. He seemed to
feel perfectly safe and spent few
days visiting friends in that vicinity.

sion will not enable him to escape
the gallows.
The two men were working to-
gether in the woods and Schul, it is
alleged, shot his companion while
he was in bed and held his head
over a trap door to allow the blood
to flow into an excavation under
meath the shanty. The theory is
that Schul supposed Wagner was
dead and started to drag HIM down
to a swamp, but that Wagner
showed signs of life and the muir
derer shot his victim twice in the
neck.
CUNNING is SHOWN.
He then, it is alleged, buried the
body deep in the snow in what is
one of the worst swamps in the
county-a place which cannot be
crossed in summer and but for the
timely discovery of the body the
crime might never have come to
light. Schul, the authorities declare.
can scarcely make successful plea
OF self-defense, as there are no evil
dences OF a struggle in the shanty
where the murder took place, and
Wagner's body, when found, was
dressed only in night clothing. The
stories told by Schul after Wagner's
disappearance are in one sense the

The body of Fred. Wagner, a

was found in tamarac swamp in
the township of Dunn, Otter Tail

Wagner had been chopping wood
in that town. The body was partly
covered by snow and had apparently
been dragged to its resting place,
and the authorities of Otter Tail
county commenced an investigation
at once. Death had been caused
by blow upon the head, appar-

and after death cover had been

BOMB DROPPED BY ACCIDENT
Official Account Of the Tragedy al
M. StoIYpln's Residence.

st. Petersburg. Aug. 25.-According
to the official account of the attempt on
NJ. Stolypin's life, It appears that at 4
o'clock this afternoon a carriage con-
tanning four persons. two dressed in
civilian clothes and two i'm foreign mill
tary uniforms, drew up at his villa.
The men entered the ante-chamber. one
Of them holding his helmet I'm his hand
as though concealing a bomb, which &C
cidentally fell i'm the ante-chamber,
with the terrible results already de-
! tailed. General Zameatin was instant
| ly killed and NJ. Voronin, a court cham
berlain, who was attending the pre-
mier's official reception, was decapi-
tated, while all the other persons i'm
/ the ante-chamber, including the three
men accompanying the individual who
carried the bomb, were killed.
Stolypin's Daughter Killed.
The legs of NJ. Stolypin's daughter,
the official account adds, were so Sc
verely injured that they had to be am
putated, and death ensued. His son
mad a leg broken. Prince ShackOwsakai
who was in an apartment adjoining the
ante-chamber, was injured. The coach
man Of the carriage which brought the
/ terrorists TO the villa was killed and
the vehicle was destroyed but the
horses were not much injured.
NJ. Khovostoff, former governor of
/ the province of PenZa, and Court Cham
berlain Davidoff were among those
killed.
Disguised as Gendarmes.
The fact that two of the assassins
were disguised as gendarmes doubtless
was due to an effort on their part to
make il appear that they were escort
| ing a political prisoner, the third man
of the group being attired in clothes of
civilian.
The police authorities this afternoon
declared that the assasslns carried
portfolios which, 1t is believed, con-
/ tanned bombs.
The whole Of the center of the house
was blown out.
Twenty persons were killed and
about the same number wounded.
Excited and TerrorIzed.
For over one hour after the explo-
sion there was a scene OF the greatest
confusion at the villa. great con-
course of spectators gathered there
| handling horrible remnants of the trag-
edy and carrying some of them away
as souvenirs. The police apparently
had lost their presence of mind, for
they did little or nothing until the ar
/ rival Of NJ. Makaroff. the assistant min
/ lister of the interior, under whose or
/ ders the Villas remains were cleared
and an investigation of the tragedy be-
! gun.
