INJURED IN A RUNAWAY.

After having recovered but short
time from broken arm, Robert Lii,
the south Eighth street cigar manufac.
turer, suffered another injury on Thurs
day of last week at New Denmark that
may prove more serious. He was thrown
from his rig by runaway team that be.

dragged along the ground for consid-
cradle distance, resulting in his leg be.
ing fractured at the knee, and now lies
ut his home where physicians have been
unable as yet to determine the full ex-
tent of the injury. Mrs. Lii, who was
also thrown from the rig was uninjured.
A few months ago Mr.. Lill fell from
a cherry tree and sustained fracture
Of his arm, which laid him up for sever
al weeks. Last week he was making a
trip through the county and arrived at
the railway station at Denmark Here
the team that he WAS driving became
frightened in some manner at the train
Wnen tne engine started mp suddenly.
They dashed off at mad clip and turn
ed suddenly throwing both Lill and his
wife from the rig. Lii managed to
keep hold of the reins despite the fact
that he was dragged along the ground,
until some parties were able to stop the
horses.
Mrs. Lill escaped with but few bruises.
Mr., Lii was brought to Manitowoc and
taken to his home where physicians
found that he had sustained slight
fracture of the leg at the knee and com.
plications had set in resulting in water
on the knee. 1t is believed, however,
that he willpull through alright Man.

SUFFER|NGS OF MRS. VANCE.
Evidence of Husbands Abuses Fur.
nished by Dead Woman's
Sister-in-Law.

Determined to carry out the dying
wish of Mrs. Vance to have Vance pun
ished, the dead woman's sister-in-law,
Mrs. George w. Vance, of 7S7 South
Eighth West street, has written a let
ter to the county attorney giving addi-
tlonal information concerning the suf
terings endured by Mrs. Vance during
her life with her husband. Mrs. Vance
before her death, prepared statement
IN which she declared that she had been
beaten and probably poisoned by her
husband. and stated that she desired to
have Vance brought 10 justice for what
she alleged he had done. Vance is still
being held in the county Jail without
bail, as a man charged with murder,
although no complaint has been filed
against him.
Mrs. George Nances letter contains a
description of stormy period in her
slster-ln-law' S life. during which Vance
la alleged to have planned to kill his
wife and children with a rifle. She also
disputes Vance's theory that Mrs.
Vance committed suicide. The letter
concludes as follows.
There is another incident that hap
pened between Vance and his wife that
l would like to relate. About three
years ago she lost an infant through MS
abuse and was confined to her bed six
months. While she was awful sick
and not expected to live, be went to
her bed and told her that he had made
up his mind to load his Winchester and
| blow hers and all the children's brains
out of their head, and then put an end
to himself. And she begged him to
shoot her first, so she wouldn't have to
see the children shot. But he changed
/ his mind afterwards and didn't kill
/ them. He also said that he didn't care
to live for he could not be saved, for
he was bound to go to torment, for he
had caused the death of the babe. He
also beat her the night before the old
est boy, Edward, was born till her ears
were black. And her brother, James
w. Hartley, went to visit her the next
day after the babe was born and asked
her what was the matter with her ears
She told him she did not know, for she
knew what would happen if her brother
found it out. There are many other
times he has beaten her, but this is the
most important one that 1 can think OF
at the present

noon took up the matter of the charges
made against Policeman Burton by j. II.

policeman were unwilling to press the
case.
After the details Of their arrest We're
discussed, Chief Pitt inquired if they
wished to have Policeman Burton dis
charged from the force. All declared that
they had no such desire. 1t was then de-
cided that the policeman should apologize
for making the mistake of taking the
three well known men into custody. A
handshaking festival followed and the in
cident was closed. Everybody departed
well satisfied with the way in which the
matter had ended.
Chief Pitt stated later that Policeman
