sought by the county authorities in
connection with the murders of the
five members OF the William Show
man family here Sunday night, had
been in Colorado Springs, where the
six members of the Dayne and Burn
ham families were slain, and was ac-
quainted in Monmouth, Ill. where
three persons were murdered recent
ly, was the startling statement made
TO the authorities by Mrs Minnie Vo-
pat, Marzyek's divorced wife. All
these IA victims were killed with an
AK.
Sam Snowman, brother OF William
Snowman. head of the murdered fam
lily, started at the head OF a posse on
detailed search OF the country.
FUGITIVE SEEN IN FIELD.
Marzyek not long ago served y
term for stealing grain from James
Vopat. Tuesday night Vopat, who is
the husband OF Marzyeks former
wife. saw the ex-convict in a field
near his house. Vopat and his fam
lily, terror stricken, locked up their
house and fed to the home OF a SIav
fellow countryman five miles distant.
All the members OF the SlaV COM
munity who had any remote connec-
tion with the conviction OF Marzyek
are armed for he is reported TO have
sworn a terrible vengeance on those
responsible for his Imprisonment.
Ira Lloyd, the attorney who de-
Tended Marzyek in the wheat steal
ing case, said:
81 believe Marzyek will remain in
the neighborhood until he completes
his vengeance. After his sentence
he told me that when he was released
he would come back and kill the peo-
pie who were responsible for his con
viction and also their children. L will

Evidence furnished by Mr.. and
Mrs. William Snowman is said 10
have been largely responsible for
Marzyek's conviction.

Mrs. Vopat said her former hus-
band was convicted of forgery In
Colorado Springs a few months ago.

there is no record OF such a case.
Marzyek served in the Philippine
war and after his return TO this coun-
try deserted from the army. He had
been in trouble since for forging
checks and stealing. Until he went
to the penitentiary he was constant
