Carl Schwaderer, a N1collet county

a year ago for drunkenness, claimed
that he had been robbed of certificates
of deposit amounting to Sl.4OO while
coming to New Ulm from North Da-
kota.
Today he is once more in possession
of his missing wealth: Says the Min
neapolis Journal of Friday:
E'With hundreds of people walking
over them every. day, certificates of
deposit representing small fortune
and representing, too, a robbery-lay
undisturbed under First avenue side
walk for almost a year until they were
discovered accidentally yesterday.
"Carl Strand, an employee OF jan
ney, Semple, Hill & Co., discovered
the water-stained, discolored certiti-
Gates, worth 81, 400, under the sidewalk
on the First avenue side of the com
pany's building. They had been
pushed through broken headlight in
the sidewalk. Mr.. Strand turned the
papers, with notebook found with
them, over to Police Superintendent
Corriston.
''The four certificates of deposit re-
present deposits made in the Citizens
Bank and the State Bank of New Ulm
by Carl Schwaderer. A year ago
Schwaderer returned to New Ulm from
Minneapolis and told story OF having
been robbed in this city. He made no
report to the police here. Unable to
recover his certificates OF deposit, he
has been forced to let the money stay
in the New Ulm banks. He is now
working on a farm near Nicollet,

SWELL TRAIN FOR,MlLWAUKEEANs
Merchants Of the Cream City Will
Have Every Comfort on
Their Trip West.

The special train which will carry
the members OF the Merchants and
Manufacturers associ alton from Mil
waukee to the cities of southern Min
nesota and South Dakota will present
one OF the finest equipments ever sent
into western territory. The full vesti-
buled, ,electric-lighted train will consist
OF four sleepers, three diners, buffet
car, baggage car and day coach. It
is probable that two engines will be
required to haul this heavy equipment
over some sections of the road.
All meals will be served in the diners
excepting at certain cities where the
party will remain over night and
where special arrangements have been
made for the entertainment of the
guests. At such places the Milwaukee
business men are prepared to furnish
large part of the entertainment, as
they carry with them their removed
male. quartette and the famous ''Billy
Reese, /" who is conceded to be the best
story teller 'on the road" On previ-
Gus excursions Mr.. Eeese has been
known to entertain large audiences
with his anecdotes and tales and it is
said that he never tells the same story
twice. This year he says he has gath
cred in large crop of new ones with
which he will convulse new audiences.
The Milwaukee merchants will leave
on their excursion Sunday evening,
June Z, returning June II, after visit
ing thirty cities and towns in the
northwest.

ALBIN CARLSON ASSIGNS STOCK
Hanska Merchant Makes Deal for
the Benefit Of His Creditors.

New Ulm people were surprised last
week to learn that Albln Carlson, for
merly citizen and business man of
New Ulm, but for several years
prominent merchant of Hanska, had
assigned his entire merchandise stock
in that village to the Northwestern
Jobbers' Credit Bureau for the benefit
of all his creditors.
The stock invoices at S10,S00 and is
now in the hands of A. FL. Oberg, a
St. Paul representative of the assignee.
For the present Mr.. Oberg will oper-
ate the store in the usual way, dis
posing of as much of the stock from
day to day as he can, but whether this
policy will be continued until the en-
tire amount is sold is as yet unknown.
So too the exact extent of Mr.. Carl
sons liabilities are not known, but it
is the general opinion that his credi-
tors will receive all or nearly all that
is coming to them.
Painters have been busy the past
week redecorating the interior of John
f. Neumann's mammoth store. The
work is practically completed.
/ Gen. Bobleter has received from
Senator Moses E. Clapp large sup
ply of garden seeds which he will dis

MYSTERY IS CLEARED
William Schrieber, a Neighbor,
Accused of Former New
U1mite's Murder.

Rudolph Massapust of West Newton
was called to Virginia in ST. Louis
county last week to attend a hearing
in the case of William Schrieber, q
ST. Louis county homesteader, who
was arrested recently at the instance
of a Wisconsin banker on the charge
OF illegally cashing a check belonging
to Frank Massapust, a former New
Ulmite who was burned to death in his
shack near Ashawa on Sunday eve
ming early last February.
Mystery surrounded the burning,
from the start, and it was suspected at
the time that Massapust was first MUIR
dered for his money and then burned
along with the shack in order that
there might be no traces of the crime.
Massapust was known to have
money and the natural explanation Of
his peculiar death was that he had
met with foul play.
The cashing of Massapust's checks
by Schneider confirmed this suspicion
and SO strong was the evidence against
him when he came to answer this
charge that the authorities Immediate
ly swore out a warrant accusing him
Of the more serious crime of murder.
He waived examination and was bound
over to await the action of the grand
Jury.

Seifert of New Ulm and Taylor of

The Springfield team, which was
considered one of the fastest in this
section last season, defeated the San
born club Sunday in d game that was
almost without errors. Kramer was
in the box for the Springfield bunch
and throughout the entire game did
not allow his opponents single hit.
The score at the end of the game was
