THEY'RE SEEKING SECLUSlON
Mrs. Kaufman and Son Leave Sioux
Falls Suddenly.

Sioux Falls. S. d., July 5.-Moses
Kaufmann, a wealthy brewer. with his
wife, Mrs. Emma Kaufmann. who as the
result of her preliminary examination
on June 20 was held for trial in the
state circuit court accused of murder
ing Miss Agnes Polreis, her sixteen
year-old domestic, and who was admit
ted to bail in the sum of $4,000 by
the state supreme court, accompanied by
their son Charles departed today for an
unknown destination. Charles Kauf-
mann recently returned from Ohio
where he was attending college.
The destination of the accused woman
and her husband and son is carefully
concealed. 1t is thought, however, they
viii proceed to some small and remote
| place where Mr. and Mrs. Kaufman can
recover from the severe nervous strain
to which they have been subjected dur
| inc the last few weeks. Their destina
| ton is kept secret for the reason that
they want rest and quiet and freedom
| from notoriety. How long they will be
absent from Sioux Falls is not known.
1t is likely that they will remain
away until well toward the end Of sum-
mer or early fall, returning in ample
time for the calling of Mrs. Kaufmann's
case for trial in November.
Other prominent figures in the
| tragedy, Mr.. and Mrs. John POreis, par
ents of the girl for whose death Mrs.
Kaufman is alleged to be responsible,
by a strange coincidence also have tenn
porarily changed Their place of residence.
Their home is near Parkston, in the
southern part of the state, but they
now have gone to the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Josephine Schwartz, who reside on
part of South Dakota.
The dead Girl was a niece of Mrs.
Schwartz. Her parents will remain
with the Schwartz family for an indef
mite period.
1t is feared Mrs. POleris' mind is be-
coming affected through grief over the
death of her daughter, and it was deem
ed best to remove her for time to
new scenes in the hope that she would
recover.

Los Angeles herald., 1906-01-14
TRUST INSoLENCE

The attitude Of Henry II. Rogers has
astonished those conservative people
who have formerly imagined that the
trusts were not quite as bad as painted
and that the officers of these monster
combinations of capital were "just like
other men," They have suddenly
learned that the directors of the great
and soulless trusts are in many re-
spects unlike other men.
For, having been law unto them
selves during so many successful
years; having ridden down and muir
dered all competition; having corrupted
and oppressed the people without mo-
lestation and without fear; having sac
rifced honor and conscience to the
moloch of greed, and successfully defed
the puny efforts made to stop them
they naturally developed condition of
statuesuue and brazen insolence.
Henry Rogers is serenely confident
of the power of Standard Oil over all
human interference. His company has
exercised it's own will so long that he
has not the faintest notion that any
law has been made or any authority
conferred anywhere upon anybody that
could. at any time or under any cir
cumstances, be superior to the direc-
torate of the Standard Oil company.
Why should he? With nearly half a
century of unbroken history of viola
tions of all law, of disregard for the
# nj nf
preme contempt FOR commercial de-
cency. this king of trusts has never be-
fore been even invited to show cause
to the public for its existence. The peo-
pie have stood around the base of the
Standard Oil PEDESTAL with fingers in
their mouths, gazing at the monster in
wonderment and awe. They have con-
sidered it a thing apart from their ex-
istence, in which they had no interest
save one of childlike surprise and
But the pinch came. The Standard
Oil trust begot hundred other trusts
and each trust stuck it's murderous
nose into every household in this anG,
until millions and billions of money
have passed into the keeping of the
monsters of greed. There has been Il
slight awakening, ana the position OF
Henry Rogers may serve to shock into
the hearts and minds of
the entire American people.
For, if Henry II. Rogers or John D.
Rockefeller is not amenable to law or
judicial authority then our govern
ment needs sudden and thorough un-
But public confidence in
the American court of justice is still
supreme and it believes that Henry
II. Rogers can be made to answer the
questions propounded by the attorney
general of Missouri.

mayor. it We. refuses to say SO. In
stead of refusing confirmation and thus
implying rejection, giving opportunity
for other and new nominations, as
1t should do, the council tucks the
mayors appointments away i'm n pigeon
hole, there to accumulate dust and the
yellowness of age, while It meanwhile
delays and ties up the city's affairs
and demoralizes public business gen
orally.
The council may or may not have
some ulterior purpose in this method
Of procedure. Perhaps the mayor has
proved recalcitrant and. being an iron
worker and used to giving and taking
hard licks, the council feels that 1t
must "hold a hammer over him" Ad-
mittedly this is usually so. But this
isn't the time for such doings. The
city is hampered by and is suffering
from the councils delays, and no excuse
exists for them. only one thing should
the council do now: Get busy"
