MRS. KMIFMRNN
PUGEDJN TRUK.
Wife of South Dakota Brewer, Con
victed of Murdering Domestic,
Gets New Hearing.
FLANDREAU, S. D., June I.—The
second trial of Mrs. Emma Kaufmann,
wife of a wealthy Sioux Falls brewer,
who is charged witn one of the most
brutal murders of recent times, Be
gan here today. The alleged victim
was Miss Agnes Polrels. a 19-year-old
domestic in the Kaufmann family.
The girl went to work for Mrs.
Kaufmann on Feb. 18, 1906. On June
1 of the same year she died In :hs
Sioux Falls hospital, her head and
body covered with w’ounds. Mrs.
Kaufmann was arrested on a charge
of murder and tried In June, 1907. She
was convicted of manslaughter in the
second degree, but appealed and was
granteu anew tr'wl.
During the first trial It was testi
fied that as the climax of her brutal
treatment, Mr*. Kaufmann a few days
before the girl came to the hospital,
poured hot water on her after she
had fallen to the floor exhausted by 1
beating, for the purpose, as she is al
leged to have explained, of “trying
to get her up."
When the girl entered the Kauf
mann employ she weighed 138 pounds.
When she died her weight was 110.
Mrs. Kaufmann has been out on
925,000 bail.
ALL NIGHT IN SADDLE TO
ATTEND MOTHER'S FUNERAL
Young Man Ridas 65 Miles on Lonely
Trail of Montana Government
Reservation.
ST. PAUL, June L —Jay Strane ar
rived here from Lamedeer, Mont., to
attend the funeral of his mother,
which had been postponed on hi* ac
count. The young man had reached
here only after an all-night horseback
ride of sixty-five miles on the lonely
trail of a Montana government reser
vation.
Jay Strane Is employed on a govern
ment reservation, the headquarters of
which are at Mont. In
erder to reach the place cn the reser
vation where Strane was working
when his mother died a two days’
journey by stage was required.
When the son received the news of
his mother's death he could not get
back to Lamedeer Immediately by
stage. He therefore secured a horso
and shortly after nightfall set out on
his solitary ride of sixty-five miles to
headquarters. This he accomplished
in time to make train connections.
Mrs. Strane was fifty-seven years
old and had been ill for several
months, the cause of which was heart
trouble.
DOG BRINGS HELP TO MAN
SINKING IN A QUAGMIRE
Whine* Until Noticed, Lead* Retcuer
to Scene; Then Satisfied, He
Trot* Away.
.CHESTER. Pa.. June I.—Attract
ed by the barking and whining of a
dog on the Reading railway track near
Eddystone, William Peet, of Cheater,
followed the dog. who led him to a
quagmire a conplc of hundred yard*
lrom the railroad truck*, where he
found Harry Morrison, of this city,
•tuck In the mud up to hla arm-pita
and grndua’ly sinking.
Morrison was rescued by Peet and a
couple of men who were hailed by the
rescuer, dragged to the top of the
bank and the mud scraped from his
clothing. Morrison said that he at
tempted to cross the hog for a short
cut to Eddystone. missed his footing
and went down into the mire. He
shouted for help until he was unable
to speak, and would have been buried
alive had it not been for the dog's
efforts In his behalf.
The strange part of the story is the
fact thrt the dog does not belong to
Morrison, ncr does he know who owns
the animal, as the dog. a shepherd,
•Tampered off Just as »oon as he saw
that Morrison was safe.

THE DETROIT TIMES: TUESDAY, JUNE I, 1909.
DEMANDS LETTERS
EMPERHTE
Young Turks Hold betters Which
Are Alleged to Prove Kaiser’s Sup
port of Despotic Sultan's Methods.
CONSTANTINOPLE, June I—Ger
man Ambassador Von Bleberstein vis
! ited Grand Vitler Hilmi Pasha today
and made a personal demand for the
return of the letters written by Emper
or William to former Sultan Abdul
Hamid during the crisis last April.
These letters, as the United Press
dispatches indicated at the time, are
alleged to prove the kaiser’s support of
Abdul’s despotism and Germany's anx
iety to recover them is considered sig
nificant. They were found among the
former sultan's effects when he was
driven from the palace by the Young
Turks.
The grand vizier told Von Bieber
stein that the letters were still in the
possession of the Young Turkish m-,
vestigating committee and that until
they were submitted to the govern
ment it would be Impossible for him
to comply with the request.
Von Bleberstein then asked as to
the contents of the letters, but was
informed that the Young Turks had
disclosed nothing to the government.
Hilmi promised to send the letters to
the kaiser as soon as he got possession ,
of them.
Messages from Tabriz today say
that the Turkish troops have complet*!
ed the occupation of Urumia. Salmas
and Khoi, in the Azerbaijan province, i
and are entrenching themselves in an- j
tlctpatlon of a clash with the Russian
soldiers, now quartered in Tabriz.
The Turkish foreign office declares }
that the occupation is merely for tho ,
purpose of defending Turkey’s Inter
ests In the extensive territory known
as the “Persian border.” It is be
lieved. however, that the Turks will
attempt to check the Russian advance.
Russia and Turkey have about 24,-
000 soldiers, equally divided, in north
western Persia. The opposing forces
are not more than TO miles apart and
a clash may come at any moment.
The English foreign office is se
cretly pleased at the resistance with
which Russia is meeting, as it i3
feared in London that Russia has
effected her long-intended “land grab”
fn violation of the Anglo-Russian com
pact.
The probability oi Germany backing
op Turkey in her counter move is a
source of much uneasiness.
No confirmation has been received
of the report tha' Persian Mohamme
dans are massacrelng the Chrlstiau
population throughout the disturbed
regiou as a protest against the Rus
sian occupation.
Satar Khan and his revolutionary
followers, who for mouths held Tabriz
against the loyalist forces, are still
sheltered in the Turkish consulate at
Tabriz in defiance of the Russian de
mands that they surrender on the
ground that they fomented the anti-
Russian agitation.
SAILOR WHO SAID HE SLEW
MRS. GUNNESS TO RETURN
James Small Admits H« Told Lurid
Tale To Secure His Release
, From Ship.
CHRISTIANIA. June I. James
Small, the I’3-year-old sailor who cre
ated a sensation by first confessing
that he aided Mrs. Gunness, the La
Porte. Itid., woman in committing a
number of murders, and later killed
her and her children, but who so
soon as he was discharged from his
ship derived there was no truth in
the confession, was surrendered at the
United States consulate here today.
He will be sent to the United States
on June 4. hut not for any connection
with the Gunness murder.
It is not now generally believed he
knew any more about the Gunness
murder than he read In the newspa- i
pets, but that he took a unique way
to secure his discharge from a ship
which had proven uncongenial.
He admitted at the consulate today
that he told the story to his captain j
so that the latter would conclude he
was inrane and land him.
The consul has secured passage for
him on the Scandinavian American
liner Heligo Elavin, the usual manner
for stranded sailors. Small talked ra
tionally today. He declared that he
is a native of Ilesborongh. Me., and
that lie has been a sailor all his life.
He insisted that he never was in In
diana or even heard of Mrs. Gunness
until he reud of the case In the news
papers. As there is a possibility that
Small may l»e insane, he will be watch
ed euroute to the United dtate*.
YOUTH IS KILLED
BY PITCHED BALL
Game Between Church Clubs in
Ecorse Ends in Tragedy—Alfred
Vollmar the Victim.
“Dead ball,” shouted the umpire in a
bell game between Sunday school
teams of the Ecorse Presbyterian
church and St. Marks Presbyterian
church, of Trenton, in the former vil
lage. Monday afternoon, when the
wildly pitched sphere struck the bats
man, Alfred Vollmar, 17 years old. of
J Ecorse, in the breast. Just over the
J heart. Alfred started for first base.
IHe had covered but half the distance
, when he sank in his tracks, dead. The
umpires word had been prophetic.
Doctors who were called in found that
death was caused by a sudden interne!
hemorrhage as a result of the impact
of the ball.
The game stood 4 to 4 when Alfred
came to bat in the fourth inning. Just
before he stepped to the plate he
threw hla arms about hisjsister's neck
and said: "We ll win this game yet,
sis.” On the first ball he bit a foul.
'The second struck him and ended the
game.
Alfred, with his father and brothers,
worked in the Great Laken Engineer
ing works, in Ecorse. The family for- j
merly lived in Port Huron. Alfred was
popular among his fellows and his
death under such circumstances was
a great nhock to them. The funeral
will be held Wednesday, and the in
terment will be in Port Huron.

THE TEMPLE.
It was nn enthusiastic holiday audi
ence that greeted the various arts
presented in the Temple theater Mon
day afternoon, and everything had
been arranged particularly for the
season. There is very little to ex
haust any great amount of grey mat
ter. but the whole performance seems
especially designed for a few hours
jolly entertainment.
The college farce, “When Love Is
Young." In which James Young was
the particular attraction, proved a Jol
ly bit of nonsense. Mr. Young being
aided and abetted by Catherine Cul
vert and Robert Strauss. Mr. Young
has won distinct honors in tho dram
atic field In “Brown of Harvard," and
other plays and made good at the per
formance, Monday. Miss Colvert is n
clover young woman, possessing good
looks, and assisted materially in the
success, especially in the "Charme
d'Armour" dance. Robert Strauss was
decidedly natural In his farcical part.
Charles Leonard Fletcher gave the
audience a glimpse of the actor’s
dressing room and stage makeup, ami
his character studies of Dickens’
I’riah H*ep, Mark Twatir. Baron Chev
rial and the old G. A. R veteran who
had made the famous march to the
sea with Sherman, were Intensely in
teresting
Edmund Stanley and company have
a decidedly unique way of introduc
ing an operatic act entitled "Love’s
Garden," in which the trio which make
up the company introduced solos,
duets and trios. Miss Hortense Ma
zarett. with a big. deep voice, and
Miss Estelle Ward, shared the ap
plause with Mr. Stanley.
Olllvotti Troubadours, jit-rformers
on the violin and guitar, play well a
number of well known airs, and Sil
bon's novelty circus, with wonderfully
trained cats. dogs, ponies anti the like
perform much to the delight of the
junior portion of the audience as well
as their elders. Snriith anti Campbell
have an original manner of presenting
a sketch, entitled “Camping Out." and
Jewell’s manikins present a toy land
vaudeville performance worthy of live
performers.
The Brittons, who opened the pro
gram. danced themselves into the good
favor of the Temple audience, and the
Mooreoscope pictures were as pleas
ing as usual.
