Illinois, Murder Come To Light
Chicago, May 24, - Patrick Callaghan was arrested here yesterday on the charge of murder in Winona county, Minn., seven years ago. It is claimed that at the time the murder was committed the accused was a farmer and his land adjoined that of Warren Youman. Some difficulty arose out of it. Youman was found dead in his field, his life having been taken with a scythe. Callaghan disappeared, and suspicion fastened upon him. He will be held here until the Minnesota officers call for him.
