Yesterday Mr. and Mrs. Schrelber left for the sceno of the murder. As the murdered man was formerly ono of the best known citizens of this county, much Interest was manifested in the case, but not until to-day were the true facts known. HOW THE MOKDHI! OOOUIUUD. Franklin J. Schrelber was ono ot tho leading citizens of Upper Minnesota and was tho owner of n 3500-acro wheat farm South of Moorehead. Jacob F. Bchrclber camo to town on Tuesday and wont at once to his uncle's farm with tho purpose, as he said, of making a scttlomcnt with tho latter regarding some property transactions, tlo Is quoted as saying nlso that if no settle ment was arrived at ho would shoot his uncle. When he arrived at tho farm, young Schrelber was uuder tho Influence of liquor and acted very strangely. Noticing his condition and believing that the young man was not altogether sound In mind, tho undo notified tho authorities and made a request that hls.nephow's sanity be Inquired into. Tho outcome of tho whole matter, however, was that young Bchreiber fired two shots at his uncle, both of which woro fatal, ono severing tho large artery of the heart. Mr. Bchrclber lived only four minutes, nnd after the shooting never spoko a word. For a time tho oxcitcment at Moorehead was intenso and but tor the fact that the murderer is generally regarded as insane, would undoubtedly havo been lynched. He made no resistance to arrest, expresses no regret and views tho wholo matter with a stolid Indifference. WflO THE MUIIDEIIED MAN WAS. Franklin J. Bchrclber, the muidcrcd man was a natlvo of this country and for many years conducted a largo mill near this city. About eight years ago ho moved to Moore head, where he was held in high esteem and was president of the Agricultural Bo clcty at that place. His wlfo was Miss Sarah Harman a native of Bloomsburg, Pa. They had no children. Surviving brothers are John L. Fchrcibcr, of this county, and Peter Schrelber, of Oil City, Pa. Mrs. W. II. Mcchling, of Ocrmantown, is the only surviving sister. Jacob Schrelber, tho murderer, is about !5 ycara of age and always had a wild dis position. Several years ago ho ran away from home ami later enlisted In tho regular army, from which, it is said, he deserted. How long ho has been at Moorehead is not known. John L. Schrelber, the brother of tho murdered man and father of tho mur- dcrer,'Is a highly respected citizen of thii county and extremely popular. Two years ago ho was elected county commissioner. Much sympathy Is expressed for him." In addition to tho foregoing tho Moore head Weekly News gives the following partic ulars : At the tlmo of tho murder I. J. Shrelber was with his crew threshing oats a short distanco from tho house. Tho nephew bad been standing around near the threshing machine, all tho afternoon. According to tho testimony nt tho inquest ho had asked his undo where his father had got certain money, and Mr. Schrelber had explained It to Jacob ; some of the men thought Jacob was acting strangely, and the victim had said to them that ho was acting as if he was crazy. Thero had been no harsh words between them. Mr. Bchrclber was shot twice, the first ball penetrating the right shoulder blade, and lodging just be ncath tho skin In tho centre of the breast As ho turned towards tho murderer tho second shot was fired, penetrating above tho right groin. Mr. Schrelber did not speak after being shot. He was carried into tho houso and laid on the table, whero ho died Bhortly otter. Tho murderer ran swiftly across the pralrlo towards Moore head, and was captured about two hours later. Tho itoirs says : "Mr. Bhrelbcr was a thoroughly practical farmer, and has taken many advanced steps In his farming operations to test tho capability of tho soli and climate here, and has been of material benefit to the agriculturists cf this region, Ho was a genial pleasant and undemonstra- tlvo man, peaceful and quiet, ot tho strict est integrity and tho highest honor. His loss ia a heavy blow to this county, and to his sorrowing widow It Is irreparable." Mrs. Shrelber, formerly Miss Baltic Har man of thla place, aud sister of the late J, II. Harman, and Mrs. W. IL.Tubbs, has tho warmest sympathy ot mary friends hero In her terriblo affliction. A l'lccc oi Her .iiliul.
