From Saturday's Daily.
Detective James Malone. special
agent for tbo C, B. & Q. railroad com
pany, today appeared before Justice
Archer nd swore out a complaint
against John W. Whaten nod John
Richardson, charging them with hav
ing stolen brHss to the value of $140
or fourteen hundred pounds from the
locb.1 shops.
Richardson, as was mentioned in
these columns yesterday, wan arrested
in Omaha while trying to di-pose of a
quantity of the metal, and claimed
that an employe of the PI- ttsmoutb
f-hops stole the brass and that he
simply got a commission for e:ling it.
The man was brought to thi- city and
tbo case investigated with tie result
above stated.
Both men have signed a written con
fession, admitting even more than is
set forth in the complaints. It de
veloped that Whalen, who i- an old
and trusted employe of the company,
had a method of taking the bras
which would be bard to detect. He
took small quantities of the mtal at n
lime and when they had enough on
hand, Richardson hauled it to Ora bx
or Council Bluffs and sold it. They
admit having been engaged in the
business for a long time
This morning when Sheriff Wbeler
went over to the shops and p aced
Whalen under arrest the latter m.de
do attempt to corceal his guilt, but
took the officer to his home and dug up
about forty pouods of the metal which
had been concealed.
The arrest of the men was a great
surprise, especially to the friends of
Mr. Whalen, who has always been con
sidered an honest and upright citizen.
Justice Archer bound them over in
the sum of $350 each. Ii is quite
probable that they will be able to fur
nish the necessary bonds.
Ketnrn With Prlnoner.
Sheriff Wheeler and Constable Den
son returned from Lincoln this morn
ing, bavlng in charge a man named
Henry Selby, who was mentioned in
these columns yesterday hu haviog
robbed D. B. Harvey, a farmer, resid
ing near Greenwood. Speaking of
the crime with which Selby is charged,
the State Journal says:
"Mr. Harvey employed Selby some
time ago and after Selby had quit bis
services, he miseed two sets of har
' ness and a number of robes, etc. Some
of this property wa9 recovered, but
the harness has not been found. Yes
terday Selby'a wife cal'ed on the chief
of police and said she thought she
could locate the harness, if it would
make the punishment easier on Selby.
No promises were made her, but she
was advised to get the barneys if she
could."

A GIRL. COMMITS SUICIDE
The Tragic Death of Little Ines Gibson
Htartles Malvern. I., People.
A dispatch from Malvern, la., to the
Omaha Bee gives the following account
of a terrible tragedy, which occurred
at that place:
"About 4 o'clock Thursday afternoon
the deid boJy of twelve-year-old Inez
Gibson, the niece and adopted daugh
ter of T. D. Gibson, a prominent gro
cer of this place, was found hacglDg
In a closet which opened f r ta her
bedroom. The child came from school
ubout 3 o'clock and afterward went to
her room, ostensibly to straighten it
up, and about 4 o'clock her little
brother. Otto, went to find ter. He
immediately ran down and told the
servant girl, who ran to the bedroom,
but, upon entering the room, she saw
a reflection of the child in a mirror.
This so frightened her that she ran
-creaming from the house to call the
neighbors, who ran to the child's res
cue, but found they were too late. Mr.
and Mrs. Gibson were at their tore
when they wre notiQVd by little Otto.
"Coroner Whitnall was called and
held an inquest and decided that the
child had taken her own life, using;
her own jumping rope for the purpose
Nocau-e can be alien for the act.
Inez wit s a very bright and intelligent
chld. rather quiet, but well beloved
by all ber playm tes and cla-smates.
Her horre with her uncle was excep
tionally pleasant and comfortable and
all pleasures and comfort- which
money could buy or hra-t could wish
were lavished on the littU- girl. Hence,
ber action is mote than usually unac
countable "
A Valuable Invention.
Here is a brief description of a new
telegraphone for receiving and record
ing telephone messages: The steel
band on which the records are made is
wound on four rollers arranged in a
rectangle and the winding is so ar
ranged thai the band is continuous
and for a reproduction of the record it
is not necessary to reverse the band
and start it again, but eimply to let it
run on. The cores of both the record
ing and reproducing magnets are paral
lel to the breadth of the band and not
perpendicular to its surface. They
are made to touch it For the guid
ance of the writes four brass combs are
mounted near the rollers. The whole
apparatus is driven by a one-sixteenth
horse-power electromotor, which im
parts to the band a velocity of three
metres per second. The duration of
speech in two minute'. That is not
much for a phonograph, but, of course,
it can be increased by increasing the
number of rollers or the distance be
tween them. Several hearing magnets
can be arranged and if it should be
necessary to repeat a ehort passage
that can be done by mounting a hear
ing magnet on another part of the wire
and switching it on as required."

Death of Al. William.
The many Cass county friends of
Thomas A. Williams.familiarly known
as Al. Williams, will be sorry to learn
of his death, whieh recently occurred
in Washington. Speaking of his death,
the State Journal says:
"A telegram received yesterday by
Dr. Bessey from his son Ernest in
Washington brings the sad news of
the death of Thomas A. Williams in
that city. Mr. William was a resi
dent of Weeping Water, Ndb., and was
a student in the University of Nebraska
f r m 1884 to 1SS9. graduating in the
latter year. He devoted much atten
tion to b tany, and was the best au
thority in the country on the very
difficult group of plants known as the
lichens. In 1891 he took the degree
of A. M. from the University of Ne
braska. He taught in the schools of
the 6t tie for a tire, and was for some
years professor of botany in the Sutb
Dakota agricultural college, from
which he was called to the govern
ment service as expert botanist in the
department of agriculture. At the
time of his death he was assistant chief
of the division of agrostology and stood
n high favor with the scientific men
with whom he was associated.
"His death occurred at 4 o'cl ck yes
terday morning, and was due to heart
failure."
That t'udabj Kidnapping.
There are so many stories about the
kidnapping of the 6on of Edward
Cudahy at South Omaha that some of
the papers up there are doubting some
parts of the story. It is now under
stood that the son is .a novel reader
and quite a smoker of cigarettes. Th9
papers seem to think that some parts
of the boy's story are quite fishy. The
father has offered a reward of $25,000
for the arrest and conviction of his
abductors. The whole thirg reads
like a well-constructed detective novel
and the moral is a bad one for the gen
eral public, as it will lead many other
daredevils to try the same game with
the children of other wealthy people.
At Omaha the parents are afraid to
let their children go out alone after
night, while the children can be easily
kept at home for fear that "the kid
nappers will get you." In this respect.
t will be better than a curfew law.

Horrible Atrocities Said to Have Been Per
petrated on Christians by the Turks.
Over 1,000 Killed.
Vienna, Dec. 22. Further reports of
the Turkish massacres of Christians
show that their Instigator Is a Moham
metLan fanatic named Haiduk Islam,
who brags of having slain 200 Chris
tians with his own hands. The Turk
ish authorities have shown utter in
difference of the outrages and those
being perpetrated on Christians are
beyond description.
At Bituch men were crucified on
trees with stakes driven through their
hands and feet. Women were attack
ed and then mutilated. Children were
murdered by mutilation before their
parents eyes. Women were maltreat
ed at Grumma before the eyes of their
husbands, brothers and fathers and
then carried into the bondage of
harems. Men were tortured to death
slowly by various means, their limbs
cut off successively and children were
thrown Into the river.
The fiends tortured the Christians
at Riharitz by slicing flesh from all
parts of their bodies before killing
them. A Greek orthodox priest was
tied In a sack and pitched into the
rivor at Genovitza. The Servian con
sul at Mitrovitza estimates that 1.100
persons have been killed and 400 wom
en attacked and placed In harems.
PENSION FOR RAILROAD MEN
Chicago, Milwaukee and St. Paul Consid
ering: lteueflt Plan.
Chicago, Dec. 22. A project for pen
sioning employes and paying benefits
in case of sickness, disability or death
is under consideration by the directors
of the Chicago. Milwaukee and St.
Paul railroad. The plan contemplates
assessing the employes for only part
probably half of the funds necessary
to carry out the system, the rest of
the expenses to be borne by the com
pany. If It is finally adopted it will
affect from 25.000 to 30,000 employes.
In many respects the system will be
similar to a mutual benefit associa
tion, but the company proposes to con
tribute liberally toward its main
tenance. The men in the employ of
the company will not be required tc
join unless they wish to do so, bul
those taken on hereafter probably will
be required to leeonie contributors to
the fund. thus, of course, placing them
selves In the line of its benefits.

DETAILS OF DEWET'S ESCAPE
Whole Boer Army Made Daring; Charge
Straight Through British Columns.
Bloemfontein, Dec. 21 The details
of General Dewet's escape from the
encircling British columns show that it
was one of the boldest incidents of the
war. When Haasbroek's command
joined Dewet on Dec. 12, some 15 miles
east of Thaba N'Chu, General Knox
was only about an hour distant and
the Boer situation appeared desper
ate. But Dewet was equal to the oc
casion. Dispatching Haasbroek west
ward, to make a feint at Victoria nek,
Dewet prepared to break through the
British columns at Spuingau nek pas
sage, about four miles off, on broad,
flat, unbroken ground. At the en
trance were two fortified posts, while
artillery was posted on a hill eastward,
watching the Boers. Suddenly a mag
nificent spectacle was presented. The
whole Boer army, 2,500 men, started
at a gallop in open order through the
nek. President Steyn and Peit Fourie
led the charge and Dewet brought up
the rear. The British guns and rifles
boomed and rattled incessantly. The
Boers first tried the eastward route;
but, encountering artillery, they di
verged and galloped to the foot of the
hill to the westward, where the fire of
only a single post was effective.
The whole maneuver was a piece of
magnificent daring, and its success
was complete. In spite of the loss of
a 15-pounder and 25 prisoners.

Editor Stead Gives
Kruger's Views'.
MASTERS OF THE SITUATlvl
Hold to Their Conditions and V.'IU Not
Compromise Fall lug to Secure Inter
vention or Independence They Will Pre
fer to Die Fighting.
London. Dec. 22. William T. Stead
has just returned from The Hague,
where he has had a long conference
with Mr. Kruger, and has ascertained
at first hand the views of Mr. Kruger
and his counsellors as to the present
situation and future prospects. Mr.
Stead has written the following for
the Associated Press:
"First of all nothing is decided
about his visit to America at present.
President Kruger has not abandoned
all hope of securing the support of
the governments of the civilized world
in his demand for arbitration. Until
the last government refuses absolutely
to say a word In support of the princi
ples which they solemnly laid down
at The Hague conference Mr. Kruger
will not partake in popular demonstra
tions. It is recognized that if he
cared to do so he could shake the con
tinents The popular enthusiasm for
hira Is unparalleled since Garibaldi's
visit to London, but until his diplo
matic mission Is exhausted an appeal
to the people cannot even be taken
Into consideration. Mr. Kruger is em
phatic in disclaiming any desire to in
volve other nations in war in behalf
of the Boers. What he asks is that
the governments, which at The Ilague,
declared their Intention to use their
efforts to secure amicable settlement
of disputes by means of mediation
and arbitration should make a united
effort to bring the verdict of the civ
ilized world to bear on Great Britain.
" 'The English,' said Mr. Kruger,
'are waging this war in South Africa
like savages. They are burning homes,
destroying farms, cutting trees, devas
tating fields and creating famine.
They are unable to capture Dewet,
but they are making prisoners of wom
en and children who are not treated
with ordinary decency." "
"The man on horseback at this mo
ment is not Mr. Kruger, but President
Steyn. He. Delarey and Dewet are
masters of the situation, having a bet
ter disciplined and more effective force
than that which followed the flag at
the outbreak of the war. They have
plenty of ammunition and replenish
their store continually from the Brit
ish convoys. They have taken enough
Lee-Metford rifles to arm all the burgh
ers now in tile field.
"The Boers will not listen to any
proposals for a compromise. They are
unanimous, railing in independence
or arbitration they will prefer to die
fighting."
Cape Dutch In Open Revolt.
London, Dec. 22. "We understand
that private reliable advices have been
received in Loudon," says-the London
Daily Mail, "that virtually all the dis
tricts of Cape Colony in the vicinity
of the Orange river are In a more or
less open revolt and that there Is like
ly to be sharp fighting on a rather
large scale before the invasion is
crushed. The tactics of the Boers in
rallying as many as possible of the
Dutch in the back country to their
cause are proving successful."
Boers Iteaten OA.
Johannesburg. Dec. 22. The Boers
attacked Zunfontein Dec. IS, but
were beaten off. A dispatch from De
Arr, Cape Colony, says that the yeo
manry .have driven the Boers out of
Houtkraal, the enemy retiring west

Several Persons Killed Near Glasgow.
Great Damage In North of England.
London, Dec. 22. The telegraph
wires are being slowly restored and
news is arriving. The gale has done
great damage generally in the north
of England and Scotland. A Glasgow
correspondent says: "Not since the
storm which destroyed the Tay bridge
has such another raged in Scotland.
High walls have been wrecked at Glas
gow. At Cambridge, ten miles east of
Glasgow, several persons have been
killed, while at numerous other places
roofs and chimneys have been de
stroyed. Some of the buildings of the
University of Aberdeen have been
damaged and everywhere the wires
are interrupted."

Carrollton, Ky., Dec. 22. Arthur
Taylor, a farmer, shot and killed his

wife left him and came here. Yester
day Taylor drove into town from Mil
ton, entered the house and without
