who has sued the city for 100000
damages for the alleged alienation of

KAUFMAN SEEKS UNKN0WNREVENG
Parents of the Girl Are Also Hunting
New Scenes 20 DispeI
Grief.

SIOUX FALLS, S. D., July 10.-Mrs
Emma Kaufman, recently held for
trial on the charge of numbering
Agnes Polreis, her 16-year-old serv
ant, and out on $4,000 bail, departed
for an unknown destination. She was
accompanied by her husband, Moses
Kaufman, wealthy brewer and
their son Charles. 1t was declared that
| the secrecy attending their departure
was due to their wish for rest and
quiet.
Other prominent figures in the trag-
edy, Mr.. and Mrs. John Polreis, par
ents of the dead girl, also have tempo
rarily changed their place Of residence.
Their home is near Parkston, in the
southern part of the state, but they
have gone to the home of Mr.. and Mrs.
Joseph Schwartz. who reside on a
| farm near Webster, in the northern
| part of South Dakota.
The dead girl was niece of Mrs.
Schwartz. Her parents will remain
with the Schwartz family for an in
definite period
1t is feared Mrs. Polreis' mind is
becoming affected through grief over
the death of her daughter, and it wax
deemed best to remove her for time
to new scenes in the hope that she
would recover.

MOUNTAIN GEM IS SEIZED
Steamer in Hands Of Sheriff Of
Franklin County
RESULT OF FORECLOSURE PROCEEDINGS
CAPTAIN GRAY RESISTED EFF
FORTS OF SHERIFF TO
SERVE PAPERS,

Word reached the city yesterday
that the steamer Mountain Gem had
been seized at the mouth Of the Snake
river by the sheriff of Franklin coun-
ty, Washington, under foreclosure
proceedings brought by the Eureka
and Fargo Mining companies Of Lew
iston, says the Lewiston Tribune. The
proceedings relative to the seizure Of
the boat were directed by Attorney
j. o. Bender of Lewiston, representing
the plaintiffs. The amount of the
mortgage is $4,000. The date set for
the sale of the boat to satisfy the
mortgage under the attachment
brought is July 49, 1t is understood
that the master of the steamer, Cap
tain Gray, resisted the service of the
attachment papers to the extent of
| ordering the civil officers off the boat,
and it was also stated he ran the craft
to the opposite shore before it was
permanently placed in the hands of
the courts.
The seizure of the Mountain Gem is
another development in the litigation
! that arose relative to the mortgage of
s10,000000, the collection of which
initiated legal proceedings some weeks
| ago. Primarily the suit instituted
| asked for the appointment of a re-
ceiver. and this was granted by the
| district court. Later the receiver pro-
! ceedingS were set aside by the dis
/ trict and the case went to the SUI
preme court, which held that the claim
| could not be forced to collection under
| such process.

GRID FOR ANOTHER FIGHT.
Summer Opera Bouffe on the Thorn
apple May Culminate in Tragedy.

CHIPPEWA FALLS, Wis, July 10.
"A. E. Falk, former city editor of the
Chippewa Herald, has returned from a
visit to John Dietz at ThOrnapple dam.
Mr.. Falk had to travel % miles of the
distance on foot.
In the course of an interview Mr..
Detz told the newspaper man that he
but he declared emphatically that he
would defend his wife, his home and
himself to the very last and would use
his rifle where it would do the most
effective work
Il will not be taken alive" he said.
Mr. Falk interviewed the county Of
ficials of Sawyer county, who smarting
under the criticism of their alleged lax
methods in dealing with the Dietz
case, told him that they were going to
make a determined effort to arrest
Dietz. If they fail they have assur-
ance that they can rely on the assist
ance of state troops.
Therefore it is not unlikely that the
comedy drama of Thornapple dam
may wind up in grim tragedy.
