OFFICIALS ACCUSED OF
BREWERY AFFILIATIONS

Yankton, July 1.-Thurshday was as
hot in saloon circles in Yankton as it
was IN the weather. which is saying a
good deal.
The county fist passed on liquor Ii
censes after a hot debate, and over the
protests of q large number of citizens.
In the evening a citizens committee,
appointed by q big mass meeting,
again appeared, but again they were
pushed aside and the licenses granted.
Members of the committee strongly
limited that the same grip the Yankton
brewery apparently held in county af-
fairs was also held owe the city COM
mission. This brought the members Of
the commission to their feet and there
was a sharp exchange of words and de-
malls by the commissioners that the
brewery held them in it's grip.
This is the first time under the com
mission plan that such an encounter
has taken place in the council chamber
although sue scenes were common
enough in the old council days.

front of Tom Sweeney's yesterday
morning.
"Oh, trot along; don't bother mel
was the reply made by Williams.
Mrs. Stratman, quickly opening her
reticule. flashed a new 80 caliber re-
volver and pointing it directly at Will
Jams pulled the trigger. The weapon
clicked, but did not explode and Will
Jams sought a haven of safety in
Sweeney's store.
Later on Deputy Sheriff Baken ar
rested Mrs. Stratman and she will ap-
pear before Justice Mintener to an
swer to a charge Of assault with a
deadly weapon with intent to do bodily
harm. She is now at liberty under a
5000 bond.
The trouble, which had its climax
in the attempted shooting, grew out
of q charge made by Mrs. Stratman
that Williams had assaulted her with
intent to do her violence.
The grand jury investigated the
case and dismissed It.. Williams is an
elderly man, and was one of the states
star witnesses In the prosecution of
Mrs. Fannie Huney, a friend of the
Stratman omar
An examination Of the revolver after
the woman's arrest showed that the
cartridge had slipped from the cylin-
der of the weapon while she had been
carrying 1t In her reticule.

out Of the back o of the residence
of the brides father, Everett Emmert.
but shortly afterward returned, and
when the charivari youngsters kept up
their noise, the father of the bride came
out upon the porch with a gun in hand
and ordered the crowd to dispense. This
dampened the ardor of most of the
boys, but a business man of Alcester

seen.
