He showed that he had been at his club until a late hour the evening before the mur- der and his housekeeper confirmed hh statement that he had returned to his room before it took place. He was allowed freedom for a short time, but a few hours later was again taken into custody, and held without charge antil ute in May when an indictment charg- ing him with first degree murder was | returned by the Ramsey county grand | jury. | Three’ Separate Plots | ‘The indictment, and others in the 5 i ls A A a Ale i A ch SANS A IEE same case, were obtained when evi- | ae dence of three separate plots for the! § | ERS $I PRISON 10 PAR | murder of Mrs. Dunn and the con- i | fessions of Joe Redenbaugh, or Eddie | Hamilton and Frank McCool were pre- | sented to the jury. | The story of the plots was develop- | ed under the personal direction of; Chief of Police J. J. O'Connor of St. | Paul and rivalled in dramatic sequence the detective tales of fiction. From the first the chief believed that Mrs. + Dunn’s death was the result of a plot and evidence confirming his the-! ory came soon. He disregarded Dunn's positive denials of knowledge of the crime and believed the theft of | a purse containing a check and a few coins from the Dunn home a clumsy attempt to blind the police by making them think that burglars had com- mitted the murder. Madame D. Enters From a woman first . known as “Madame D.” and: later as the divorced wife of Albert Brown of Montana, came the original story of the first plot. Brown and S. C. Ferdig were found in Montana by two St. Paul de- tectives and brought here, where they related a story to the police of having | been hired to kill Mrs. Dunn. They | declared, however, they never intend- | ed to kill her, but they did accept money, they said, from Dunn. Both were exonerated by the police and County Attorney R. D. O’Brien. | A second plot, also unsuccessful, was told of by James Hickey, former convict, the police said. Mike Moore, a bartender, appeared in this story as the go-between, but the plot was) not carried out. Three Willing to Slay | Finally, according to the police. | Moore found two other men, possibly three,., yilling to. go,through the mur- der. his was revealed they said, in the confessions of Joe Redenbaugh, | Flax It} s first arrested in connection with the murder of George Connery, a Minne- apolis policeman, who was shot and beaten and left to die in the woods near that city by two men whom he was taking to a police station follow- ing their arrest on a charge of speed- ing. The murder of Connery occurred two days before that of Mrs. Dunn, and Chief O’Connor linked the two, though other officers doubted his the- ory. The car in which Connery’s murderers were riding was found to! have been stolen from La Cr 1s. Two Murderers Taken Descriptions of the men in it were found to correspond with police des- criptions of. McCool and Redenbaugh’ and a country wide search for thei was begun at once. McCool. was ar- rested at Kansas City where he had been held in connection with a bank robbery at University Place, Nebraska, and Redenbaugh was captured with his bride at San Francisco. Both confessed the two murders, and Chiei O'Connor regarded his theories as up- held. * Redenbaugh implicated Moore es representative of Dunn in his confes-. sion. He pleaded guilty to the charge of murder in the first degree for the slaying of Connery and was sentenced to a life term in the penitentiary at Stillwater. o | GRAIN MARKETS i o—__=______.9 MINNEAPOLIS.

The latter was is in prison for taking part in the certain stage in the building of the temple of Jerusalem he wanted the help of metal workers, for his peaple knew little of that art. Therefore he sent to his neighbor, Hiram, king of Tyre, traditional descendant of Tubal Cain, the pioneer of workers in brass and iron. Bre in those days was not brass, as it Is understood mow, but properly bronze, observes the New York Sun, So King Hiram sent his master of craft, Hiram Abif. The Bible relates that “he was a widow's son of the tribe of Naphtall, and his father was 2 man of Tyre, a worker in brass, and he yas filled with wisdom and understanding and cun- ning to work all works in brass.” Masonry holds Hiram Abif as its founder and Masonic tradition has it that this master metal worker was murdered by jealous artisans In Solo- mon’s service. It seems that Solomon wanted Hi- ram Abif to teach one of his men how to fashion and to mix that wonderful bronze so that he, too, should have a master of the craft in his own king- dom. News of this came to the ears of a lesser artisan. who also had as- pirations. Therefore when the temple was finished and the night before the man of Tyre was to return to his na- dered after refusing to divulge the secret of his cunning.

If he was voicing his own, whose opinion is he voicing now, when he is comfortably tucked in the same political bed with the aforesaid obnoxious S. J. Doyle?

Kelly was compelled to reveal to the Central Committee, the hitherto hidden story of the payment of a sal- ary of $150 to $200 a month to F. W. McLean, which salary was continued for five months after the November election, it evidently became obvious to Mr. Kelly that something must be said by way of extenuation or excuse for the unprecedented procedure. D parting then from the dry dust of fig- ures, he spread his histrionic wings and soared into the unaccustomed realms of sentiment. With tear- dimmed eyes he launched a eulogy upon the adjacent and complacent head of the former State Chairm pointing out his manifold ellen his wonderful intelligence, and that through his efforts Wilson won in North Dakota.
