RICH WOMAN FACES SECOND HEARING
 FOR MURDER
ACCUSED or KILLING SERVANT IN FIT OF UNREASONING
 JEALOUSY

FLANDREAU, s. D., May 3l.-Much interest is manifested here in the ease of Mrs. Emma Kaufmann, whose sec ond trial for the alleged murder of Agnes Polreis, l6-year-oid girl who was in her employ as servant, is dock eted to begin in the Moody county cir cult court next Tuesday. The ease was brought here on change of venue from Sioux Falls.
 Mrs. Kaufman is the wife of Moses Kaufmann, who has made fortune Tn the brewery business in Sioux Falls, and is prominent in politics. For near ly three years Mrs. Kaufmann has been at liberty in bonds of $25,000. At one time she was in grave danger of phys ical collapse, but recently has shown much improvement.
 The first trial of Mrs. Kaufman re- suited in her conviction. The verdict was due largely to the testimony of Peter Erickson, 8 former hired man or the Kaufmanns. who testified that he had seen Mrs. Kaufman poke the Pol reis girl in the ribs with broomstick and that one day he entered the house and found the girl lying on the floor in a pool of water. Mrs. Kaufmann, he said, told him she had put hot water on the servant, trying to get her up. At another time, he testified, he noticed that the skin had peeled off the lower portion of the girls limbs. Mrs. Kauf' mann, he said, told him of having forced the girl to bathe her feet in ashes soaked with water.
 Miss Polreis entered the employ ot Mrs. Kaufman on February 10, 1906 few weeks after the family arrived in South Dakota from Poland, anl only little more than three months before she died in a Sioux Falls hospital from | numerous wounds, bruises and cut which are alleged to have been infiict by Mrs. Kaufman. When she entered the Kaufmann household the girl il said to have been robust in health anc spirit.
 | The alleged crime might never hav' l DetU fuibNONtitu hdo Hos o William Moeller, an intimate frienc of the dead girl, observed bruises oi the body. She was so persistent tha after the funeral the body was ex humed. Many gashes and bruises wer' disclosed. The cuts were ragged ant apparently made by some blunt instru ment. On the legs were blisters sucl as would be produced by acids or burns The theory of the prosecution was tha the girl, for an unknown motive, wa beaten and pummeled to death by de grees and that Mrs. Kauffmann thre1 boiling water on her.
 The thought that Polish servant gir should live and that her own little giI had to die, it is charged, drove Mrs Kaufmann into fits of insane>cruelty Intense feeling was aroused agalns Mrs. Kaufmann at the time Of the al rest. Two hundred society wome threatened to dynamite her home if sh was not sent to jail. Since her libers ton on bail she has resided for the mos
 of the time away from Sioux Falls.

 The plaintiff for her cause of action alleges that on April 10 of this year, while she was in the store of Doiph Baatz, Mrs. Baatz accused her of steal ing a quantity of ribbon and also made the same assertion to her mother.

Work which has been carried on at the property of the Miami Copper com pany since the beginning of the first shaft there, has developed 13,5OO,0OO tons of ore, according to a statement made to the Silver Belt yesterday, by J. Parke Charming, vice president of the company and one of the most prom inent mining engineers of the country, who has been in Globe for the past sew eral days, looking over the property
 At the present time, while not great deal of development work is being car ried on, quite good sized force of men is at work on the 470 and 570 foot levels.
 Blocking Out Ore
 The major portion of the under ground work now in progress consists of blocking out the ore above the 37O foot level, preparatory to mining. As the slicing system is to be used, a con siderable amount of preliminary work is necessary, before the actual work of removing the ore can be commenced.
 The showing made by drift on the 57O foot level is. very encouraging, showing concentrating ore running very nearly per cent. This Is much better ore than was expected on this level.
 win Sink to 600 Level
 From the No. l shaft the main skele- ton has been cut out on the 420 or main extraction level. The main long cross cut has been started toward No. f from the mine shaft and work is progressing satisfactorily.
 The No. 1 shaft, which is down to the 420 level, will be sunk without stopping to a depth of 600 feet. Work will then be commenced on crosscut to connect with that on the 42O foot level of No. shaft.
 Grading on the new mill site is pro gressing rapidly, but actual construc ton work will not be commenced unti the new Miami extension of the Giis Valley railroad has been completed, anc shipment of cement received for thu construction of the reinforced concrete foundations.
 Structural Steel Ordered
 The structural steel for the big plan and good portion of the machinery has already been ordered. It will b. on hand by the time it is wanted.
 While q mill of only 2000ton ca pacity is to be erected at the presen time, the foundations will be ampl. large for a 300O-ton plant, should it b found necessary to later increase tn capacity. Rollers, tables and other ma chinery for the mill will be on oni. 1000 tons capacity at the start. The. will be used for run of six month so that if any alterations are foun' necessary, they can be made when tn second lot of machinery is installed The mine will start with an output 0 1000 tons daily and be worked up t

double that amount at the end of six months, according to present plans..
 Steam Power Plant
 The big steam power plant will con sist of three 1000 kilowatt Crocker- Wheeler 6600 volt alternating current generators, driven by three Nordberg four-cylinder triple expansion engines and also Nordberg four-cylinder triple expansion two-stage air compressor, with capacity of 5000 cubic feet of air per minute.
 Electricity will be used for lighting and for power in the mill, shops and for underground hauling. The compressed air will be used not only to drive underground drills, but to operate the main hoist, an innovation in this part of the country. As compressed air has tendency to freeze up an engine, when used as a motive power, it will be heated with oil, thereby producing very high eff ficiency, at 8 minimum of expense. This plan will also permit the use of one boiler plant for both the mill and tho mine.

 Wright Promoted
 Louie A. Wright, general manager o the Miami Copper company, has bee appointed to the position of consultinj engineer of the General Developmen company for the southwest and Mexico and advanced to similar position wit the Miami Copper company. B. Britto GOttsburger has been appointed gen eral manager of the Miami company He will reside at the mine, to be in i'm mediate charge of the development an cnustru uctinn work thprA
 According to Mir. Charming, the out look at the Miami property is very CT couraging, which is easily apparent when the immense amount of money t be expended in developing the propert and handling ore is taken into consi( eration.

station will be cut at the 100-foot
point and a crosscut driven to pick it
up on that level
Within the last week the company
has exposed seven feet of 800 ore
in an open cut on the side of the hill,
just below the main shaft. A good
body of shipping ore has also been
exposed in another cut about $50
feet to the west. Nearly 1000 sacks
of ore from the various workings are
now ready to go out and shipments
will be resumed the first of the week
and continued until the completion
of the mill. There is enough high
grade in sight to keep up shipments
for an indefinite period.
The two cuts referred to are in the
vein that was uncovered in the main
workings on the top of the hill. The
main shaft is down 220 feet and the
vein has been cut on both the 100
