who was employed as a domestic in
the home of Moses Kaufman, mill
lionaire brewer of this city, and wife,
died recently. Mrs. Kaufman was
arrested on the charge of manslaugh-
ter. The Kaufmans are prominent

1t is alleged by the prosecution
that the girl died as the result of
beatings administered by Mrs. Kauf-
man, aud that these beatings were
due to Mrs. Kaufman's inability to
control a violent temper. The girl
died in the City Hospital. Her body
in the last few days was twice ex-
humed so post mortem examinations
could be made by physicians. On her
head and body were found numer-
GUS cuts and bruises.
