SCHWARTZ ESCAPED OFFICERS,
BUT HE SOON WAS RECAPTURED
Fellow Charged With Serious Crime
Attempted To Make His Getaway;
Jumped Fast Street Car

Frank Schwartz, the man for whom
a warrant was sworn out yesterday
morning, charging him with a serious
crime against Mary Widman, eight
year old girl, gave two officers of the
Mankato police force a livery chase
before he was finally landed safely
behind the bars. Detective John
Lulsdorff and Patrolmen Michael Nc
Hugh were detailed to serve the war
rant on Schwartz.
The man was working in the Fow-
Ter and Pay lower quarry. The two
officers kept close watch of him as
they came back toward the city
through the brush and jungles that
surround the quarries. Schwartz ap-
peared cool and collected and showed
no signs of any intention to break
away. When they reached the street
car lines the officers and prisoner
waited for the car to ride to the sta
ton.
Jumped From Car.
Once in the car Schwartz appeared
uneasy and kept peering out into the
motorman's booth. Patrolman McHugh
was seated behind the man and De-
tective Lulsdorff was in front of the
car. Suddenly, quicker than a cat,
the officers state, Schwartz dove out
of the front of the car, dropped off
when it was going at fast rate of
speed and ran for nearby alley.
This happened on North Front street
near the F. j. Mahowald store.
Schwartz had not hit the pavement
before Detective Lulsdorff was on the
steps of the car. In watching the
runaway however he lost his balance,
fell to the pavement and suffered a
bad bruise on the knee and other in
juries. Patrolman McHugh followed
and the two set out after Schwartz.
The man ran through the alley, across
Rock street, into the abandoned
quarry, out of this and across Front
street to the railroad tracks.

Schwartz Is Accused of Assault
Upon Fifteen Year Old Girl

vestigated Schwartz case after the
first complaint against the man was
made and learned of the present fact
through girls in. the neighborhood.
This morning the young lady who
was assaulted made a clear statement
of the facts.
Police and county officials state
that the statements made by the two
Widman girls, one eight years old
and the other six years old, show
Schwartz to have committed the
most henious of crimes against them.
In addition to this the new reveal
lions uncovered this morning show
other causes for action against the
man.
Schwartz is the man who broke
away from two police officers when
being taken to the station on the
street car and gave them n lively
chase Thursday afternoon. The man
was bound over to await the action
of the grand jury yesterday morning.
The statutes of Minnesota provide
that in the case of crime such as

Assaulted when she went to the
home of Joseph Widman to get a
pail of water, dragged into coal
shed and brutally attacked by Frank
Schwartz, was the story which a
sixteen year old girl related to Chief
of Police Jack Martin and two rep
resentatives of local newspapers,
this morning. Schwartz is now con-
fined in the county jail on a charge
of having carnal knowledge of an
eight year old child of the Widman
family.
The girl who related her story this
morning resides near the Widman
home. II had been the custom for
the family to get water at the Wild
man pump. About five or six months
ago, the girl was but fifteen years
old at that time, she stated that she
went to the pump to get water as
usual. When she started away
Schwartz grabbed her, and forced
her into coal shed on the place.
Girl Was Frightened.
Frightened and ashamed she had
made no mention of. the fact until
Schwartz was brought before the
court on the charge which at present
rests against him. Chief Martin in
