Milwaukee, Aug' 16.--Herewith is the strange story of a husband who signed his own 'death warrant" and may have absolved his wife from the penalty for riddling his body with bullets. i It seems, according to the evi- | dence, that Mrs. Viola Brinkman shot and killed her husband, John | E. Brinkman, automobile salesman | of Newark, N.J., gt*a local hotel! here, when she fond him in the company of another' woman. | Following the shooting the police! ran across a letter in searching their effects signed by Brinkman and bear- ing a date four*years old, The state- ment reads: : | "This is to certify that I, John E. Brinkman, hereby state that if at any time I am found or seen in the company of a woman other than my wife, Viola Brinkman, she may re- #ort to any means to punish mie and I will deem her justified in so doing and make no complaint against her." Detectives and attaches of the prosecuting attorney's office believe that Mrs. Brinkman will use the do- cument in her fight against a peni- tentiary sentence. At the inquest Mrs. Ba declined to make a statement until she can communicate witth relatives at Asbury Park. Mrs. Brinkman is forty-seven. The couple were married twenty-four Years ago and maintained a home, with an adopted son, at Newark. On the morning. he was murdered by his wife, Brinkman, automobile salesman of Newark, N.J., received a letter from "Ida." ox Detectives have gone to Kenosha, Wis., to try and locate "Ida," whom they believe may have provided the spark which fired the brain of Mrs. Viola C. Brinkman and prompted her to shoot down her husband. Mrs. Brinkman, a rather Jstout, motherly looking woman, who had been married to Jack for twenty-four years, had said immediately after the ! tragedy that she had killed him ra- | ther than give him up to another wo- man. Y The police have followed several theories in their search for the mo- tive, but always they came back to the other woman. Mrs. Brinkman told the police her husband left her several months ago in Newark. She tried to get a warrant for his arrest, she said, charging abandonment, but failed. She followed him to Louis- | for the exe | Institution rant?' INCIDENTS OF THE DAY. Items of Interest Gathered by Our Busy Reporters, The model school opened to-day.
