If he does not appear to testify against La Rose, the staters case will be greatly weakened, and another man charged tuth a henious crime rpay go free because the evidence is not strong enough to convict. - - Hot some time after the arrest of La Rose, Young was detained at the county jail. Then he was released on a promise to report to the district at torney once each week.

The murder of Neuman, closelv fol lowing the Wolff - tragedy; attracted much attention.
