Sheriff Hammel continued the ex-

ly. Schultz never was at loss for

briefly.
DENIES HIGH CONNECTIONS
The accused further stated that his
brother Emil, who is i'll at Lancaster
as the result of having kissed the lips
of the dead woman, was not lieuten-
ant in the German army, but was a
sergeant at the time OF his discharge
from the service.
Schultz said that his father is a
wagonmaker. The prisoner said he
knows nothing about the husband of
the murdered woman, other than she
at one time had stated that Castine
owned a large number of horses. The
accused said the dead woman had some
money, but he was ignorant of the
amount.
When asked whether she was expect
ing a remittance from Germany Schultz
shrugged his shoulders and replied:
"Well, she has some property there. y
He was unable to say how much
money she expected. He was asked as
to why the dead woman used the name
of Schultz The prisoner an
SWered that she had adopted his broth
err and also took his name.
Schultz said that he used the bor-
rowed team to carry his belongings to
the railroad station at Lancaster, then
returned it and went back to the house
and got two pairs of trousers.
FEELS NO REMORSE
The prisoner is a sunburned, thin,
anemic appearing person. He has
straw colored hair and eyebrows and
a thin, pale blonde mustache. He wore
a dark coat and vest and trousers, a
white shirt without collar and well
worn shoes when he was taken into
custody. At times he appeared i'll at
ease and toyed with his clothing In
a nervous manner. Frequently he
would place his hands to his lips and
bite his fingers. He seemed to have
no feeling of remorse and when led
away to his cell slouched along in
careless manner
When his effects were examined it
was found that he had taken a num-
Der of certificates for several hundred
shares of mining stock issued to the
dead woman. The name of Mrs. Ger
trude briggs, who now is in the county
Jail under a prison sentence on a
charge of forgery, is signed to the GER
tifcates. 1t is thought the murderer
planned selling the stock in order to
realize enough money to defray his ex-
penses to Germany, as he said he in
tended to stay in Los Angeles for a
few weeks before starting on his long
trip.
The accused probably will be ar
raigned in the township court at Lam
caster within few days.
