Tli3 clinrgo undo buforo the police
comniHtco tint Oflkcr O'Brien vrns seen
to Uike money belonging to n prisoner
at the county jail , is cmpha'ically ' denied
by that olOcor. It is chimed by him
tlmt ho picked op his chnin , trliicli ha
had had to tiso In bringing tbo prlsuiior
to ilia jail , oiidhich Iny coir the money
referred to , and that it Mn. Sellout ? nnd
her datightara taw hhn pick up anything
it was the clnin instead of a bill. The
CQIO referred to was the arrcit of Robert
Alls cod , whoso homo is ia Brownsville ,
Neb , There have been many stnnigo
ramors about the way this young man
was used while here , aside from the
charge made sgrinst Oflicer O'Brien. In
brief , it Is reported that the youcg man
had quite a little umoont of
money with him when ho came
here , and that his only ollenso seemed to
bo thnt of getting a little too much Coun
cil BlulTa whisky into his stomach , but
tint before ho got out of totrn hii monsy
had molted away , his watch was shoved
up and ho had to giro a personal note
betide , all this to aottlo numerous cases
brought against him , ail growing out of
ono transaction , various charge ? , differing
technically , being brought rgiinst him.
While the police committee are examin
ing partway into thn case , they thouhl
not atop with Officer O'Brion'oconnection
therewith , bub ascertain what others had
to do in the matter. It would prove
probably an interesting chapter in their
forthcomlop report.
An for e dicer O'Brien ho present * to
the police ccinmittoo und the public the
following :
COUNCIL Buirrs , Iowa , January 17 ,
1885 To thopuHo committed of the
common council of the clly cf Council
Bluffi , Iowa , und the public Gentlemen :
The charge of larceny has been undo
againtt mo in the picas , and loab the
public and your committee should be led
to believe mo guilty I desire to acquaint
you mththo fasto , as well as to say tint
said charge of Jarceny ia utterly and
absolutely false , as will appear from the
following :
On the 4th day of May , 1884,1 ar
rested and took to the county jail ono
Robtrt Allegood , who had , when s3atch-
od , SCO oa his person , which sum was
turned over to the proper authorities.
The said Allegood whllo on route to the
county iail , otlorod mo half of his money
to lot htm go. which I refused , and sub *
eequcntly had him arrested on a charge
of attempting to bribe an officer , as will
appear of record in Justice Vaughan's
court on page 100 , docket A. , on
May 5,1884. It will nlso appear by the
testimony of Jno. Jay Frainey who was
AHsgood's attorney , and J. H , Rogers ,
that said charge is f tlse. They will tes
tify to what amount of money Allsgnod
bad when ho came to town , viz : S70 ;
what aununt ho had when arrested , viz :
§ 00 , and what amount was turned over
t j him , $ GG , vhon released nest mom
irg , and prior to liis arrest aad subsequent
com lotion before Justice Vaughan , all of
which tends to provo the said chatga ut
terly groundless.

ADDITIONAL STATEMENTS ,

It hao bjen a matter of nome little

The criticism is hardly fair , howeverfor
many of them have been appealed. His
tide haa usually been the appel'ant. ' Ha
and Mr. Banga scored an other defeat t >
day ao couneol for Huntington in the
suits of Aspinwal ) , Potter and Stewart
against that famous capitalist. Mr.
Stewart snod to recover the value , with
interest of his shares in tha old Oentml
Pacific , the predecessor of tbe present
corporation , which ho sold to
Mr. Huntington many years ego.
The wily financier having Uid
his p'ans for the watering of the stock by
a process of reorganisation , sent to those
gentlemen and told them that ho thought
ho could get them a purchaser for their
shaics on the Pacific coast , andfina'ly ' no-
g tatcd the sale to a supposed third
party. It was not until Gen. Aspinwall
had paid a \ isit to San .Francisco that ho
discovered the Huntington patty to bo
the leal purchasers , and that the pr co
paid was about a fourth of theirrc.il value
at that time. Ihey demanded the retur
nf their tmaics , which waiiufus d , though
they tcndoicd the money back. Mr.
btpwart , after years of lit gation , won hia
suit the other day , and got a verdict of
o\er § 100,000 for the full amount of his
claim. The defendants appealed , and
wh n the cases of Aspinwall and Patton ,
which rested upon similar evidence , weio
called , they hied to have them postponed
to wait the decision of the cou-t of las'
icsoit. To this the plaintiffs objected
unless Mr C'onkling aud Mr. JJangs
would consent to ha\o a judgment en

the entire heavens ware brilliantly illu

much more wonderful and ucaicouata-

It reminded ono ol standing beneath on

The devth of tin Kail of Aylceford ,
which Is announced , cloiea a career that
liai been anything but n successful or
honnrnblo ono. As tin hair of the Aylcs-
ford ojtnio ) this youni ; man early in lifo
took u conspicuous position among the
royalty nnd noblll'y ' of Englend. Ho waa
n companion of tno Prince of Wales In
most of his youthful cacipadcs nnd ac
companied fruit worthy to India. On his
return Aykcford was married to ono of
the moat beautiful and aminblo young
ladies in the kirgioni , the daughter of a
member of pr.rluirnout not of the nobil
ity. For n time , the young earl aban-
"onod his evil associates , but ho returned
o them again. Ilia Tflto then fell under
he influence of the disreputable Mar-
of Blandford , now the Duke of
Ilarlborougb , and fmilly eloped Tith him
o Paris , living with him tliero for yoirs
his wifd.
This and financial misfoituno seem to
iavo sobered Aylesfo-d. Uo brought suit
or divpico and would have been given an
inqualificd decree if his own record could
iao been made to appear less repulsive.
\n order of separation was granted , and
\ylesfoul was enjoined to pay his wife a
um of money each year so long as she
efrained from -'molesting" him. After
his unhappy scandal , Ins great cs'ato '
> assed into the hands of a conservator ,
.nd taking an annuity of § 50,000 the carl
amo to Ametica broken in health and
pirit Presently ho pmcliased a ranch
if 40,000 acres in Toxaa , but returning to
England he found thnt a still moro painful
umiliation was in sto-o for him. biswifo
lad a son by the Duke of Marlboiougli
horn she had dubbed Lord Guernsey , a
Itlo rightfully belonging to the Ajlos
ord family aud worn usually by pros
lective heirs to the earldom. Ho began
,11 action against her for ' 'molestation , "
nd , after a trial which did moro than
.nytbiog . else of recent years to show the
tier mfun/y of the English nobility , the
ourt held that her action in calling her
.on . by that title came under that head ,
> nd that she was no longer entitled to re-
nvo an annuity fiom her late husband.
Thrown then unon her own resources she
isappoarod in Paris.
The earl of Ayleeford visited England
few months ego tu make some arrange
ments for the csrj of his two
moro than motherless children , and
© turning to this country ho announced
.hat henceforth this would bo his
home. Uo built n comfortable bouse on
ils great Texn ranch and lived there like
, ny other cittla rais rsurrouudod by Iho
ebtless cowbcyd and rangers who were
is friends and with whom heaver
aver at ease. He banished htm-
delibordtcly from the homo of his
ancestors and apparently soatoi with dis-
p&tlon and broken with sorrow tought
'orgetfulnees In the wild , free life of the
border. His death * t the ago of thir'j-
ivii wes no doubt hastened by tlofooliih
of whish ho had been guilty.

tolid acd phulegraatic Albert Edward ,
if Wales , has ftobur d down in tiinu per
