"That the deceased came to
his death at the Kenosha hos
pital, April goth, 1915, as a re y
suit of injuries received in the
town of Newport, county of Lake
and state Of Illinois, by violence
at the hands Of an unknown
assailant or assailants and in
form and manner unknown to y
this jury and that said violence
was sufficient to cause death. -
"
This was the verdict of the coro-
ner's jury which investigated the
death Of Ingolf Hansen and which
completed it's deliberations just be-
fore six O'Clock Friday evening The
investigation on the part Of the jury
failed to bring out any additional facts
in regard to the death Of Hansen and
when the evidence had all been pre-
sented there was nothing left for the
jury to do but return an "open YER
dict' and put up to the officials of
Lake county the responsibility of find
in govt the manner in which Hansen
met his death.
While the coroner's jury was busy
making an investigation of the case
here James o Hare, Frank Murray and
William Smith, who had been arrested
at the order of Sheriff Griffin of Lake
county as suspects in the case, were
given a hearing before Magistrate
Taylor in Waukegan. The men were
charged with murder and the hearing
of the case was continued until May
Sth, pending the outcome of the in
quests held in Kenosha and in Lake
county and the three men were sent
back to Jail to await the preliminary
hearing. No mention was made Of
bond as it was understood that on ac-
tcount of the seriousness of the charge
Khe bend would not be admitted to bail.
The remains of Hansen were still at
the morgue in Kenosha today and no
announcement has been made as to
where they will be buried. The broth
er of the murdered man who was in
Kenosha on Friday, declared that he
would consult with other relatives in
Chicago before arranging to have the
remains taken away from Kenosha.
The story Of Ellen 0 Hare was about
1.-THE only thing of interest at the after
moon session of the inquest. Miss
D'Hare sohbed as she told her story
NO the jury. The district attorney
'did not ask the young woman any
questions relating to the conference
that she had with Hansen at the hos
pital on last Monday afternoon Miss
D'Hare declared that she had known
Hansen for some time and that they
were engaged to be married at the
time of his death. She admitted that
there had been opposition to her mar
riage to Hansen on the part Of her
brothers, George O'Hare and James
Hare, but that she had never heard
that either of the brothers had made
any threats against Hansen. She ad-
mitted that she had left the home of
her brothers on April 18th, week af-
ter Hansen had given up the same
home as boarding place and when
questioned closely she admitted that
Hansen s leaving had influenced her.
She saw Hansen afterward in Russell
and she declared that on the day she
saw him in Russell she overheard q
conversation in which it was declared
thaS her brothers had forbidden Han
sen to come to their home near Rus
sell. She left the home of the brothers
two days later and came to her home
Nm Kenosha.
Mr.. and Mrs. Thomas O'Hare, father
and mother of the girl, were placed
on the stand and both admitted that
there had been some opposition to the
attentions which Hansen had paid to
their daughter. Both Mr.. and Mrs.
O'Hare testified that they had never
heard of any threats against Hansen
on the part of the O'Hare bows or
any one else.
During the closing hours of the In
quest practically all of the men who
had been in the Schultz saloon on last
Saturday night were called to the
stand. Their stories were very similar
TO that which had been told by Pro-
prietor Schultz who was the frsh.wit,
ness at the inquest.
It is possible that Coroner Tay1or
of Lake county, will hold ansfnquest
there the first Of next week, but this
is not probable. Prosecutor Dady of
Lake county, was an interested listener
to all the evidence taken in the inquest
here and he declared that he did not
see the necessity of repeating the same
evidence at Waukegan again.
The case is causing a lot of excite
1nent out in the Russell neighborhood
The Lake county officials have already
gut detectives to work on the case and
