READY FOR FIGHT
Brewery Agents in Court To Con-
lest Payment of License.
Hearing Is Laid Over
ATTACK FORMER DECISION

The hearing Of the seven brewery
agents arrested two weeks ago on the
complaint of Mayor German on a
charge of wholesa1ing beer in Keno
nosha without license, was to have
come up in Justice McCarron's Court
Thursday, but when the case was
called the district attorney was not
ready to take up the trial of the men
and the case was continued until next
Tuesday morning. The brewery
agents were on hand and ready to
proceed with the trial. They were
represented in Court by Attorneys
Clifford Randall, of Kenosha, and D.
B. Brillow, of Chicago. The Chicago
attorney has made a speciality of
studying the license laws of the
different states and he is egarded as
an authority on the question.
The attorneys for the defendants

line of the fight they will make

are not guilty of having violated the
state laws. They assert that the IL
censes under which the men we're do
ing business were sufficient to war
rant the business done and that the
Superior case which is alleged to have
been parallel to the case in Kenosha
will be shown to have no effect in the
case OF the arrest of the men here. 1t
is certain that the men are In union
for the fight and that they plan to
carry the case to the highest courts Of
the state and possibly to the United
States Court. Attorney Baker has
been looking up the law under which
the men were ARE sted and it is posi-
BILE that he will have aid in prosecu-
ting the cases. Mayor German de-
clares that he has an opinion from
the attorney general in regard to the
duties OF. the city in regard to the IL
censes and it is possible that the at
torney general will come to Kenosha
and sit with the district attorney in
the trial of the cases.

MITCHELL Is GUILTY
Healer at Zion City Charged With
Torturing Woman Is Con.
victed of MansIaughter
MAY ESCAPE WITH A YEAR

Harold Mitchell, the Zion City
fanatic who was arrested on a charge
of manslaughter after the death of
Mrs. Letitia Greenhaulgh in Zion
City last September, was found
guilty of the charge by jury in the
Circuit Court at Waukegan just after
nine o'clock and he will be given an
indeterminate term in the state
prison of from one to ten years. Mrs.
Mitchell who was tried Jointly with
her husband was acquitted by the
jury and discharged from custody.
1t is claimed that the evidence showed
that Mitchell was the leader of the
band that had tortured Mrs. Green
haulgh. There were few people in
the Court room when the verdict was
rendered. The followers of the Par
hamite sect who hadu been eager
spectators at the trial during the day
had thought that the jury would be
out for many hours and most of them
had gone to their homes in Zion City
and other cities expecting to return
to Waukegan this morning. The
jury was out only short time and the
little debate that went on in the Jury
room was IN regard to the conviction
of Mrs. Mitchell. All of the Jurors
were pretty well satisfied of the guilt
Of Mitchell. The punishment of the
man was not all that had been desired
by the states attorney and it was
thought that if Mitchell was con-
victed he would be sent p for a long
term.
The trial of the man and his wife
was bitterly contested by the men
who had been associated with Nit
chell at Zion and the state had been
badly handicapped in bringing out the
evidence on account of the unwilling.
ness of some of the people to testify
against Mitchell. Miss Jennie Green
haulgh, the daughter of the dead wo-
man, was the only real witness that
the state had but her testimony was
sufficient to convict Mitchell of the
charges against him.
The attorneys for Mitchell at once
asked for a new trial but it is not
thought that this motion will be heard
tomorrow and if it is denied Mitchell
will probably be sentenced al once
and taken to Joliet to begin his term
Of service. The men who were asso-
ciated with Mitchell may seek later to
take the case to higher Court.

Action Of John R. Eskridge vs..
Simmons Co. Begun in U. S.
District Court Today
PLAIN TIFF DEMANDS DAMAGES
Asks $4,000 for Injuries Suffered in
the Falling of an Elevator at
the Kenosha Plant During
March of This Year

one OF the biggest suits for dam
ages Tor personal injuries ever
brought against any of the industrial
plants OF henosha was placed on trial
IN the United States Court in Milwau-
kee Thursday when Judge Ouar1es
called the suit of John r. Eskridge
against the Simmons Manufac curing
Company. Many Kenosha people
went to Milwaukee to appear as wit
nesses ia the case and it is expected
that the hearing of the case will take
up the time of the United States
Court for the remainder of the week.
The case is a most interesting one.
Eskridge sues for $4,000 for damages
for personal injuries received in an
elevator accident at the Simmons
plant on March IL of this year. The
plaintiff in the action is a resident Of
Woodstock, ILL.,, and for this reason
the suit was brought in the United
States Court rather than in the Cir
cult Court for Kenosha county.
In his complaint Eskridge alleges
that at the time of the accident he
was an employe of the company, and
with another workman was on board
an elevator running between the diff
ferent floors of the factory. The car
was IN operation, when some of the
mechanism broke and the car fell
three floors to the bottom of the shaft.
The man who was in the car with
Eskridge is alleged to have escaped
uninjured. But in the downward
flight Eskridge caught hold of rope
at the side of the shaft and attempted
to save himself by c1inging to the
rope. When the car of the elevator
struck the floor beneath the rope
snapped like a whip cord and Esk-
ridge was thrown to the bottom of the
shaft falling upon load of beds and
material for factory use. At the time
it was not thought that his injuries
were of a dangerous nature, but in his
complaint he alleges that he has been
permanently injured and that it is i'm
possible for him to do any kind OF
heavy work. Calvin Stewart, Of this
city. and Wallace Ingalls,, of Racine
are attorneys for the plaintiff, and
Cavanaghl& Barnes represent the de.
| fendant company.

STATE INVESTIGATES
Deputy State Fire Marsha Inyes.
tigates Fire Which Destroyed
a Kenosha Bake Shop
ARRESTS MAY FOLLOW SOON

Deputy State Fire Marshal William
g. End spent the entire day in Keno
sha on Wednesday investigating the
fire which occurred on the morning of
Nov. Z, which Quilted the building on
North Chicago street, owned by Theo-
dore Werve, and occupied by Michael
Grotski as a bakery. The Kenosha
officials had been Investigating the
fire, but Fire Chief Isermann
and Chief of Police O'Hare were
not satisfied with the investigation
and the deputy state fire marshal was
called IN. Marshal End made thor
ough investigation of the matter, but
did not give out the result of the in
vestig alton. 1t is probable that when
his decision on the matter is an
nounced 1t will be in the way of war
rants for the arrest of some of the men
who have been questioned. The ORR
gin Of the fire can not be discovered
by the officials, but the three investi.
cations made seem to indicate strong
ly that the fire was of an incendiary
origin. The officials refuse to be
quoted as to whom is suspected in re-
gard to the fire, but it is said that a
half a dozen people are being closely
watched. The visit of Deputy Fire
Marshal End to Kenosha Wednesday
was the first time that the new state
department has been called to Keno
sha. The department was provided
for at the last session of the legisla-
ture aud one of it's chief functions is
to investigate fires which seem to
have been incendiary. The deputy
has just inves tigated fire in Milwau-
kee and as result two men charged
with arson were sent to the state
penitentiary.
It is stated that the FIRE at the
Grotski bakery was set from the out
side of the building and it is thought
possible that enemies of Grotski car
ried the brand which started the fire.
The building was pretty we'll filled
with -four and it is alleged that the
81. 200 of insurance carried by Grotski
will not meet more than half of the
loss which he sustained on account of
the burning Of the bakery.
The report of the deputy state mar
shall is expected by the chief of the
fire department within the next two
or three days and it is pretty certain
that there will be some arrests when
the report arrives.

MACHINE WORKS WE'LL
New Tapping Machine Purchased by
Water Company Proves Success

New Tapping Machine Purchased by
Water Company Proves Success
The Kenosha Water company has
purchased at an expense of nearly
five hundred dollars a tapping ma
chine to be used in making connec-
tons with the mains of the company
and the machine was given its first
tryout on Thursday afternoon. The
test was made on Pine street, where
an 8-inch main was connected with a
12-inch main without shutting off the
water for even the shortest time. It
is claimed that the work is better
done than under the old plan and the
convenience of the machine is a
great thing in its favor. Under the
old plan for tapping the mains it was
often necessary to shut off the water
for hours and in this way the city
would lose large amounts. Under the
new plan the consumption OF water
may go on just as if the connecticn
was not being made. It is certai /
that the machine will save it's cost in
short time.

FILLER rs APPROVED
City Officials Find Aurora's Pavement
an improvement Over Kenosha,s

The city officials who went to
Aurora, ILL.,, on Wednesday to investi-
gate the use of the asphalt filler in
connection with street paving re-
turned home late Wednesday after
noon AID they will report very favor
ably on the filler at the meeting of
the Council on next Monday evening.
The filler has been used on nearly all
the streets paved in Aurora during the
last three years and the officials of
that city declare that in the future it
will be used on all paving. It is
found to make a better street, a
more quiet street and is said to make
the paving much more lasting than
the ordinary sand filler.
Mayor German and the other men,
bers Of the party were given a hearty
reception by the officials of Aurora,
