E A CLUE TO IHE
MURDER OF JOHN RUBY
It would seem from the following
special from Auburn that the officials
of Nemaha county have a clue to the
murderer of John Ruby, whose body
was recovered from the Nemaha riv
er: "Parties who have been looking
over the grounds between the Mis
souri Pacific yards and the Nemaha
river have discovered what they are
satisfied Is the train where the man,
John Ruby, was stricken down and
dragged for some distance through
the weeds. There were tracks of a
light wagon and team from the spot
to the bank of the river near where
the body was found. It was told that
the hat and coat were found near the
yard limits to the east of the Missouri
Pacific depot, but the party now de
nies having found either. Detectives
and local officers of the law are busy,
and It is believed : developments of
importance are forthcoming." Every
Indication points to the fact that Mr.
Ruby was foully murdered, and that
the officers will leave nothing undone
