Scheele MurderTrial
MB. AND MRS. SCHEELE TESTIFY.
Thus Far Schools Shown to Have a
Bad Temper.
But Very little Evidence of His III-
sanity.
He Contradicls Several of the Wit-
nesses for the Prosecution.
The afternoon semiou of the court
opened promptly at two o'clock. Several
witnesses names were called, but they
were not present and Mrs. Scheele, the
prisoner’s wife, took the stand. She tee
tified that she had lived in New Canaan
about six years; that her husband was
home all day on the day the murder
took place, and upstairs most of the time.
He was doing somethl ‘ —he was al-
ways doing something— ut she did not
know what he was doing on this porti.
cular day. She could not say whether
he was out of his mind ormot. She
stood in the room on the first floor when
she saw Gilbert Stevens with Drucker.
Scheelc was upstairs when Drucker came
the second time. Dmcker tried the door
the first time he came. She heard a con-
versation but could not understand what
Drucker said. Drucker went away and
came back again in ten or fifteen min-
utes. Her husband was up slairs,but she
did not know what he was doing. He
seemed to be walking up and down the
floor, talking to himself. She saw the
shooting and saw Drucker when he fell.
Her husband was still upstairs. Hall,
Brant and Hawley were with Drucker.
Hall came to the door and told her to
open it. She told him she would If she
could. Hall then burst the door in. She
went upstairs and found her husband on
the bed; she said to him ”what did you
do '3", He pushed her away and said
“Nothing." Scheele gets much excited
lover nothing. He had spells of getting
mad. She did not know anything about
his writing any letters that day. The
letters were found on the table: Brant
took them, she did not give them to him.
She was stopping now in Bridgeport in
the jaII. She had a hennng about the
shooting before a justice in New Canaan,
but was discharged. She then went to
New York, and when she came back
again a week afterwards she was arrest-
ed and found guilty of selling liquor and
sent to jail on the first day of February.
Upon cross examination she said that
she knew Sober-ls to have suddru spells
of anger. She recollected where she was
on Christmas day. Her husband would
get angry if the dinner was not good;
said slu- renicmberml one time since last
l bristmas when her husband got mad

I] not break. SI re and her husband
had occasional quarrels but after he broke
something he became quiet right away;
on the day of the shooting she heard her ‘
husband nail up the door: could not say
exactly where she was when Mr. flail
came to Ihe door: on the day of the rhoot-
ing about noon her husband said he was
going to write some letters but did not
say to whom they were to be addressed:
thought her husband expected to be ar-
rested but he did ll say anything to
that effect; thought lawn his mind

Drucker came to the house and subpoena-
edScheele a- a witness in a case wherein ,
he was the complainant. To Mr. Frauen-
den witness admitted that she came to
Norwalk and bought half a dozen bottles
of liquor on the day of the murder. l
William E. Dann testified that he was 3
a resident of Norwalk and kept a harnem
store there. Scheele kept a saloon under
his store; Scheele often made a great
deal of noise and also made threats and
talked wild when boys would come
around his place and annoy him; could
not say from Scheele'e conduct whether
he was drunk or crazy but always
thought he was an excitable old crank.
Once when some colored boys annoyed
him he wu very violent. Scheele occu-
pied the premises for a year. When
Scheele was excited he talked in German
and talked very loud.
Charles Oriebcl had seen Scheele when
he acted very violently. Drucker was
fond of playing tricks and once put a
frame over Mrs. Schools which be found
in a hall at New Canaan when an enter-
tainment was being given. Semen. be-

away. The morning of the murder he
went out into the yard and a man called
to him and said, “Hello, ‘Scheele, I

him why, and he said. “There is a war.

that he could not stand It any longer,

him, he said, “Scheele, open the door.”
He asked him, “What for?" and Druck-
er said, “I want to speak to you." He
did not open it for him. Drucker went
away then and in a little while cIme
back again. He then stood at the win-
dow up stairs and picked the gun up and
fired. (Here the witness illustrated with
a stick how he held It carelessly without
taking any arm.) He then dropped the
gun and shot himself. Kirk of the Mes-
senger, said when he came to see him.
"Scheele, you have madeu great man
out of yourself," and he told him be
guessed not, but Kirk had done it for
him. He did not tell ofllcer Hall that he
was “II—II glad that he had killed
Drucker." He had owned the gun he
shot Dmcker with about two years. He
wrote a letter to Mr. Schmidt that morn-
ing. He wrote the other five letters in
the morning. He was troubled With a
headache a good many times. He was
knocked down by a blow on the head

from that blow. He had a ver quick
temper, but when be mad he got over it
quickly. As he grew older he flld not

Dr. Brownson was called to see
Schcele; regarded him when he saw him
three days after the murder as of a sound
man.
F. M. Bliss, had known Schools for
about dye-are; had had some business
transaction with him prior to the mur.

rather excitable. ~
B. D. Purdy had a conversation with
Mr. Schools about him being permeated
as by the Prosecuting Attorney; regarded
him of a sound mind.
Joseph Lambert convened with him
only once; did not regard him as of an
unsound mind. Drucker told him that
Sober-lo waqnot in the state of health to
be put in the town lockup.
Robert C. Raymond knew Scheele
well; saw him two or three timesa week;
had not seen him for about a year; re-
garded him as of perfectly sound mind.
Attorney Lockwood and this witness had
quitea laughable tilt over the question
of insanity. Witness said he did not be-
lieve that a man was crazy because he
was angry; that ,could be attributed to
what he had in as he himself had been
that way.
Francis E. Weed had bad business
dealings with Schools. He regarded him
as perfectly sound.
George E. Lockwood knew Scheele
well, never say anything that would in-
dicate he was of unsound mind; had seen
him mad but other men would get mad
at the same thing. [Here the prisoner
shook his sides with laughter.) Had
bought beer on Sunday in Scheele’s
placc: played cards with him once;
Scheele got mad at a mistake he made
then.
Dewitt U. Roscoe had seen Scbeele
during the last four years; never saw
anything during all that time that would
lead him to believe that he was insane;
regarded mm as perfectly sound.
John Greenwald had known Scheele
tior 7 years: he spoke the same language;
regarded hint' as of sound mind; he
was a very extitable man; Scheele got
excited once over a trivial matter that did
not make enough impression on his mind
to remember it.

The city In undergoing abnilding boom especially

structures. others vrrv Englishyon know. The
majority of themarenot to beoccapled by men
whohave their daily stipend to back them. It Is
the opinion of some men who are posted on such
houses and lots for sale cheap for cash.
The above appeared in the Gazette this
week from its city correspondent, and is
not the first item of a similar character
that has emanated from the same source,
and written evidently to excite distrust
in the permanency of the present pros-
perity of the city.
It is true that there is a decided build-
ing boom in this city, and fine residences
and good tenements are being erected in
large numbers. But it is not true that
there is anything unnatural or unsound
in this growth, as is intimated by the
Gazette correspondent. There is nothing
of a speculative character about the mat.
ter, but every house erected lately, now
in course of erection, or in contempla-
tion. has a substantial backing. Real
estate is changing hands at reasonable
prices, houses are being built by parties
who have every prospect of holding
them until they find it to their interest
to voluntarily dispose of them, and
South Norwalk is enjoying a continuous
and substantial prosperty, and with
every prospect of continuing to enjoy it
for all time to come. Young men are
providing pleasant homes; others are
putting up comfortable tenements to ac-
commodate a large number who find
employment here but have to reside else-
where. III short there would be no sur-
plus if South Norwalk had several hun-
dred more residences and tenements.
Every citizen should feel glad that
such is the case. and speak In encourage-
ment thereof. But the Gazette corres-
pondent seemsto be a chronic cynic. and
his principal object in using its columns
to decry the place whose only misfortune
it is to have him among its residents.
But the city is growing and willcoutinue
In grow. It has no boom, in the general
sense of that word. but is prosperous,
and it will continue so inspile of the

Years ago he was a scholar in the Sub-

This fact lent a special degree of interest
to the occasion of his preaching here.
The sermon was an excellent one to
