A HORRIBLE
MURDER IN
ILLINOIS

Chicago, Nov. 29.-Bacause they
beat to death with clubs and revolv-
er butts Fred w. Gruelzow, truck
gardener while he pleaded with them
on his knees for his life, four men
are today facing death on the gal
lows, while two 16-year-old boys
must serve life Imprisonment. The
men are Ewald and Frank Shib-
lawski Phillip Sommerling and Thos.
Schult. The boys are Frank Kita
and Leo Suchomski.
The six thugs met Gruelzow with
a load of produce on the outskirts of
Chicago. The terrified farmer offered
them all his possessions if they would
spare him, because he had a wife and
child at home. Laughing, they club
he'd him into insensibility, stabbed
him several times, cut his throat, and,
dragging the life,ess body into a
nearby thicket, jammed club down
its throat, and fired several shots in
to the corpse.
After the verdict heavy guard
was placed about the county all, and
each of the 12 jurors, following
threats by friends of tha thugs tc
avenge them.

Los Angeles, Nov 29.-Former Gov
ernor Henry T, Gage, afterward
United States minister to Portugal,
and one of the leaders of the Repub-
lican party in California, will defend
Bert H. Franklin, chief investigator
for the Mcnamara defense, arrested
Yesterday on a charge of attempting
to bribe George n. Lockwood, a pros
pective juror.
When Franklin's case was called
before Justice Young this afternoon,
Ex-Governor Gage was present with
Lecompte Davis, and it was an
nounced that he would assume
charge of the case. Davis, it was eX-
planned, will be too busy with the
Mcnamara defense to devote any time
TO the allegations against Franklin
and the latter will therefore be de-
Tended by Ex-Governor Gage. The
latters association with the case was
a distinct surprise because it had
been rumored earlier in the day that
Earl Rogers, formerly leading coun-
sci for the Merchants and Manufac-
turers' association would be retained
