(Special ) Unless the defense can put up a stronger story than already sprung Mrs. Sofia Kruger will be convicted of murder of her husband, Gustav on the night of April 19, in the opinion of the county attorney. Mrs. Kruger's stories of her husband's disap pearance have differed. She said he had probably drowned himself, tnen that he had gone visiting and a third tale was that he had visited a relative, and she left the impression that he might have been killed by caving in of a well. Mrs. Kruger has kept qUIet since her arrest, and her coun sel appear confident of clearing her. Kru ger's body was found In the river. One story Is that he had gone fishing and was drowned, but the officers found blood on the floor, stove and furniture. Kruger's skull showed several holes and fractures, and It ia surmised by the state that his wife killed him with a pick, hauled his body to the river and tied rocks to It, as weights were found on it by the men who dragged the river. Preliminary examina tion resulted In binding over Mrs. Kruger to the grand Jury, which meets June 8.
