Rensselaer Semi-Weekly Republican, Volume 41, Number 21, Rensselaer, Jasper County, 24 November 1908 — Rosenbaum Case Dismissed. [ARTICLE]

Rosenbaum Case Dismissed.

The case of the state against Aug. Rosenbaum, which was begun last spring after the raid was made cn his hotel and a quantity of beer and whiskey found, was dismissed Mcnday in the circuit court. It may be remembeied that a jury failed to agree on a verdict when the case was tried last April. Since then the two people who were regarded as the star witnesses for the state moved away. Now the liquor, consisting of two barrels of bottled beer, one case of beer and 21 quart bottles of whiskey will have to be returned to Rosenbaum. It has been stored all this time in the cell off from the sheriff’s office in the basement of the court house.
