THE LEONARD MURDER.
Murray and Eastwood Released I
After a Suspected Man-
On the Trail.
Since yesterday morning the officers
have been looking for the light haired
man whom Murray claimed was with
Leonard, the murdered man, when he
left hi in at the corner of Seventh and
Main streets. It was learned that the
man had gone down the Beatrice road
toward Minersville. This morning a
News reporter met John J, Carskadou,
who resides about one mile .northwest
of Micersville, and from him we learu
that a rather suspicious looking char- j
acter and about answeriug the descrip
tiou of the man wanted for the murder,
took break fat; t at his house yesterday
morning, shortly after sunrise. He
wore a dark frock coat with a tear on
the left shoulder in the back; had on
an oM brown bat that was bleached and
wore one boot and a low cut shop
which was rather narrow. He wan
about five toot ten inches in heigM,
near twtiity-tiht years of age, lighi
complexion and light moustache. Ha
seemed cervius while eating his :r-al;
broached the subject of the murder,
and s:iid the officers had caught all
murderers but one; that if the deed
had been done in Texas a man w.ml.l
have but to get nineteen or twenty
miles away from the scene of the mur
der and they were never bothered. Mr.
Carskadon did not think anything
strange of the man's actions until af
terward. This same man eat dinner at
Mr. Church's, about two miles below
Mr. Carskadou'e, and is evidently hang
ing around in the timber on the bluff
in that vicinity. He had no money
with which to pay for the meals given
him.
Mr. A. Butler, who resides near Mi
nersville informed a News reporter that
oue ot his neighbors had told him this
morning that the man had been tracced
to'the bluffs several miles below that
place, and the timber in which he is
supposed to be concealed was surround
ed by a large number of farmers, who
expect to capture him D9forc the day is
over.
Of course, this man may not prove
to be the murderer, but as he left this
city under suspicious 'circumstances,
and has acted strangely since, it is
the light best to arrest him and have a
thorough examination.
Seyen or eight men, well mounted,
left for the vicinity of Minersville this
morning to assist in the search for this
man, and the party is composed of
some men who will follow the trad as
long as there is any hope of capturing
the suspected party.
coroner's jury.
The corner's jury met again this
morning, and after considerable dis
cussion, it was thought best to adjourn
subject to the call of the coroner, so as
to give the officers more time iu which
to follow up the "pointers" that they
now have, aud if possible to bring in
some new evidence.
MURRAT AND EA9TWOOD RELEASED.
After the coroner's jury had ad
journed this morning, it was thought
best to release Mike Murray and old
man Eastwood, who had been arrested
on suspicion and held as witnesses, as
there had been no evidence against
them sufficient to warrant their being
held.
THE REWARD.
The governor has issued a reward of
$200 for the capture of the murderers,
and the county commissioners, through
the sheriff, offer an additional reward
of $300, making in all $500. which is
offered for their arrest and conviction.
This will no doubt stimulate a great
many to work up this matter. Neb.
