"~r Walter Gerenz filed complaint in the
district court Of Ramsey county Satur-
day against the city Of st.. Paul, de-
manding $500 Of the city, alleged to be
due him for capturing the murderer of
Christian Schindeldecker. The case
will come up in court some time next
week.. -.. ..' Il. .--'>
The suit involves a peculiar tangle.
Gottschalk was the only man arrested
for the crime in question. He
pleaded guilty to the murder Of Joseph
Hartman and was hung for the crime.
He was never tried for the murder of
Schindeldecker, whom Grenz declares
Gottschalk also KILLED. On this
ground the city has refused to pay the
reward. 1t will be remembered that
Schindeldecker was killed in his
butcher shop in St. Paul during a raid
Of the establishment by Gottschalk
and Hartman.
