DID OLD INJURY CAUSE
DEATH OF SEGERSTROM?

Coroner j.. NJ. Kistler has obtained
evidence showing that Magnus seger-
strom, who was killed Saturday night
In an encounter with Alfred Jorgen-
son, in saloon at .315 Washington
avenue s, was injured three months ago
and that it. was probably due to that
injury that his death came SO easily.
s. At that time Segerstrom is said to
have fallen from his wagon and frac-
tured his skull. He was in the city
hospital for several weeks and had only
been out a short time when his death
occurred. 1t is thought that he had not
completely recovered from the old in
jury and that his skull was exceptional
~ sensitive.
Those who saw him fall said that
Jorgenson did not strike him hard and
that they were surprised when the man
did not get up. Evidence to prove
that Segerstrom was injured before vii!
, be introduced at the inquest, which will
be held at the county morgue tomorrow
| morning. .- =ttEL i
Jorgenson, the accused, was ar
raigned in police court today. on a
charge Of manslaughter in the first de-
gree. He waived examination and was

tion authorizing the lighting Of the city
from day to day at the rates submitted
by the Minneapolis Generals Electric
company, the Minneapolis Gas Light

lighting prevailing in other cities, and
advocates that steps be taken to secure

fire pistol and fired four shots at him,
each bullet missing its mark. AS she
turned to escape the woman was killed
