In less than two days the grand jury
had completed the work devolving upon
them and after having made their final
report to Judge Olsen Wednesday after
noon, they were discharged. So far as
is known only four cases were examined
into by them, those which had been re-
ferred to them by the lower courts. Ne
indictment was returned against Louise
Hetliager who was charged with perjury
nor against VIM. Wenger of Sleepy Eye
against whom burglary charge had beer
filed. Three indictments were returaad
in all. Two of them were directed against
Martin Willinger, one charging him with
incest and the other with carnally know
ing female child. He was arraigneo
Thursday and on Friday pleaded not
guilty to the charge. The other indict-
ment found was against Otto Schreyer
who is charged by the grand jury with
assault in the second degrre. When ar
raigned Thursday he pleaded not guilty
and by consent the case was continued te
the December term of Court.
In their final report the grand jury ez-
pressed themselves as well pleased With
the appearance of the public buildings
and the manner in which the various
offices are conducted. They did find
however that the wiring in the basement
of the courthouse is defective and that by
reason thereof there is danger of fire. The.
recommended that steps be taken at once
to remedy this undesirable condition and
also recommended that each floor be pro
vided With fire hose to be connected with
a stand pipe in the building.
Wednesday morning the trial of the
jury cases was begun. The first case
was sent to the foot of the calendar and
jury impaneled in the case of Robert
Lambrecht against Otto Schreyer. This
is personal injury case, the plaintiff
claiming damages by reason of injuries
received in runaway which occurred
Dec. Oath last year. Plaintiff claimed
that the runaway was caused by the
wrongful acts of the defendant Schreye,
and it seems that the jury took this view
of the case because after elaboration OF
only few hours they agreed upon YER
dict in favor of the plaintiff in the sum os
$4,000. The case went to the jury
Thursday afternoon about three O'CLOCK
and Friday morning they brought IN
sealed verdict for the amount above
stated. A stay of 40 days was granueo
plaintiff to give him ample time to make
motion for new trial if he should de-
eide to do so.
The next case to be tried was also 3
personal injury case. George Johnson
Of Sleepy Eye sued the United Flour Mills
Co., formerly Sleepy Eye Milling Co.
for damages on account of injuries sus-
tanned while riding on one Of the elevators
of the mill. ). In this case also sealed YER
dict was returned. The case was given to
the Jury late Friday afternoon and shortly
before 8 o'clock they agreed upon YER
dict in favor of the plaintiff in the sum of
$725.O0 which they brought into Court
Saturday morning.
In the third case to be tried another
sealed verdict was returned. In this case
A. II. Dorm sued Christian Garbe, Sr.
and Christian Garbe Jr. to recover nearly
$4,000 commission for selling the farm
of the defendants near Sanborn The
trial of the case was concluded shortly
before five o'clock Saturday and on Mon
day morning the jury returned a verdict
in favor of the defendants, mo cause for
action
Yesterday afternoon at l o'clock the
last of the jury cases to be tried at this
term of Court was disposed of when the
jury in the case of John Schons VS.. Jos.
Diepolder reported verdict in favor 81
the plaintiff and assessed his damages at
$3.50. This was a civil suit in which
the plaintiff claimed damages for an
alleged assault committed upon him by
the defendant in front of Ottomeyer's
store couple of months ago. I'm
mediately upon receiving this verdict,
the Court took recess until this morning
to take up any court cases that counsel
might desire to have tried at this term
OF Court. 1t is expected that there wiz
be nothing to require the attention Of
the Court when it reconvenes this morn
ing and that it will adjourn sine die.
