Where Mrs. Luetgert Was Seen:
Fond du Lac, Ripon and Milwaukee, Wisconsin

On May 22, 1897, the Chicago Tribune reported:

The search for Mrs. Luetgert has been transferred from the vicinity of Kenosha to Milwaukee. [Defense attorney William] Vincent received a telegram last night from C.E. Broughton, reporter for a Fond du Lac, Wis., newspaper, that a woman resembling Mrs. Luetgert passed Thursday night at the Ripon Hotel, went on to Fond du Lac yesterday, and took a train there for Milwaukee. Broughton said the woman acted peculiarly at Fond du Lac, as if intoxicated. No description was given.

The telegram was received at 7 p.m., and Mr. Vincent at once telegraphed the Chief of Police of Milwaukee to make a careful investigation.
