Bank Records Lifted the Shadow of Murder From Louis Kiendl

Louis Kiendl, who was for several days under arrest suspected of the murder of Mrs. Philipina Miller and her baby on August 13, was greatly disturbed by the suspicious cast upon him, and has left no stone unturned to prove his entire innocence of the crime. In order to secure evidence as to his ownership of the $200 found in his trunk he wrote to the Sacramento bank, at Sacramento, Cal., under date of August 17, saying:

'I have deposited in your bank the sum of $200 in June, 1893, and have drawn the same in March, 1894. I desire your statement in order to prove my honesty.'

In reply he received a certificate from R. E. Hamilton, cashier of the bank, showing that Kiendl opened a savings deposit account June 10, 1893, deposited in all $317, and drew out the last $287 on April 14. The certificate also attests the correctness of Kiendl's signature.

Kiendl also wrote to the German Savings and Loan Association, at San Francisco, and received an answer from William Hermann, the assistant cashier, dated August 30, saying:

'On May 10, 1894, we paid to August [illegible] a certain amount of money, and on the same date, viz., May 19, 1894, we issued a certificate of deposit, No. 4,211, in your name for $300, which certificate was paid on your indorsement on May 24, 1894.'

Since the cloud of suspicion resting upon Kiendl has been cleared away he has been quietly living at the lodging house just west of the Bay View brewery.

No further facts can be added to what has been said already. Graeber eats and sleeps better than at first, but still maintains a seeming indifference as to his fate.
