Held for Strange Murder

Workman Accused of Attacking and Killing Sleeping Friend

Fred Wenger of Winslow, while asleep in bed in a hotel in Freeport several 
nights since, was kicked on the head and beaten by William Steinke, aged 62 
years, who came from Fall Creek, Wis., seeking employment. The next day 
Steinke left and was located in Chicago and taken back to Freeport. A 
coroner's jury held him responsible for the death of Wenger and he will not be 
released until the grand jury acts in June.
