Change of venue for Tullar trial in manslaughter case
Myron Tullar of Ft. Dodge faces manslaughter charges connected to the Manson tragedy after a charge of venue change was granted by Judge Powers in Sac County. The case stems from the September race incident where John Dugan died following a confrontation involving Dugan, Frank Connolly, Joe Korns, and Tallar, with public sentiment favoring Dugan. The trial is not expected to occur in January as neither side is ready.

Trumbauer Shoe Store Robbery on Seneca Street
A mysterious robbery at Z. B. Trumbauer’s shoe store on Seneca Street occurred between 5 15 and 6 pm. About $16 was taken from the cash drawer which was not broken into suggesting the thief used a known key or combination. Only Mr. Trumbauer had access to both keys and the drawer’s code, with a possible stranger seen nearby. Local rumors link the incident to a prior Christmas Eve cash drawer theft at John Carter’s barber shop.
