Jowan in Mystery Game at Fremont
Council Bluffs Iowa May 2 Friends of LK Olsen of Council Bluffs are planning habeas corpus actions to secure Olsen’s release from Fremont Nebraska jail where he is held for the alleged shooting of H B Lucken a 78 year old pioneer. Olsen is a contractor about 40 with extensive building work here. He admits registering under an assumed name in Fremont but denies the shooting. Sheriff Condit of Dodge County Nebraska says the state has a strong circumstantial case. Lucken saw a young looking man who fired. Rumors swirl of large sums to Mrs Lucken and Olsen’s funds from houses under contract. he collected about 13000 but paid little to material men. Olsen once gave a 2100 check to Hafer Lumber Co which was returned unpaid. Investigators seek about 5000 in cash.
