Dan McGInnls , the alleged embezzler , was
brought before Justice I'atton yesterday
morning for a preliminary examination. At
torney MeCabo was present In the Interests
of the Omaha llrm for which McGInnls for
merly worked. MeGlnnls appeared halo and
hearty , and seemed to think nothing about
the fact that a charge win hanging over him
which , If proved , would send him across the
state. lie said ho had not engaged any at
torney , and , In fact , ho had not thought very
much about the case at all. Ho did not want
nnythlnir done by the court 'just yet , and ns
the Omaha parties were not at all anxious to
push the matter , tno cajo was continued In
definitely.
McGInnls' apparent case In the midst of
his trying surroundings has caused a sus
picion that possibly ho felt tolerably sure
that the cnao would bo settled , if be put It off
long enough , without over coming to trial.
McGInnls was divorced from his wife some
tlmo ago and what has happened since that
tlmo has , It Is said , brought some very promi
nent cltUous into such relations with Mc
GInnls1 domestic affairs that these prominent
citizens would rather give quite a sum of
money than have tbo nubile know Just what
happened. Attorney Harlo wai asked yes
terday whether any attempt bad been made
toward effecting a settlement. Ho replied
that so far as ho know the prosecuting wit
nesses had never considered a proposition
for a settlement That apparently throttles
the sensational view of the case , but the
scandal lovers will probably po on thinlting
there Is something interesting at the bottom
of the affair just the same.

Ton Quick Suspicion.
Ellas J. Quick , the postmaster of Quick ,
the llttlo town which bears his name , was the
Innocent victim of decidedly unpleasant cir
cumstances tbo other day. Ho came to the
city with his wife's father and ir.othor , who
were onrouto to Salt Lake. They all went
with the crowd to attend the snlo of the
Elsoman stock. Mr. Quick houplita pair of
overshoes , which ho loft at the store until ho
should return after seeing the old folks off.
The old lady bought among other things a
holt of gingham , and then , thinking , that , har
daughter , Mrs. Quick , would like a dress
from it , asked the clerk to cut off
ton or twelve yards nnd put In a separate
package. The cldrli explained that ho would
cut it off , hut could not put It in a separate
package without confusing the cashier , as u
was wrapped up together. The party left
the store and'went to Mr , A T. Klwell's rail
way ofllco to got the tickets for the old folks.
Them Mr. Quielt's mother-in-law unrolled
the package und gave him the piece of cloth
for his wife. Mr. Quick put the
cloth In hl = > coat pocket , nnd after
seeing the old folks off , returned to the
Klsoman store to got his now ovorsuoes.
On comlngout of the store thooftlcdr noticed
the cloth iu his pocket nnd stopped him ,
thinking ho had stolen It. Mr. Quick Is ono
of the old nnd' substantial residents In this
county , and to thus bo taken In ch'argo as a
potty thief was naturally a starter to his
nerves. lie explained that his mother-in-law
had given him the cloth and that she hud
gone to Salt Lake , but the ofllcor thought it
a chostmitty mother-in-law Joke nml was con
tinued in his suspicions , It took much tlmo
and many proofs before ho could ho released.
Mr. Quick wanted to have Mr. Klwoll called
upon to corroborate his statements ,
but this proffer was declined , as ho
could not recall Mr. Ehvoll's name
readily , Mr. W. H. M. Pusoy , the
well known banker , with whom 5Mr. Quick
1ms done business for years. J. H. Suyder ,
the commission man , were called In to Iden
tify him and vouch for his standing. The
clerk , who cut off the plcco of cloth , was
called up to corroborate the statement. Aftei
much annoyance and humiliation ho was tolil
that ho might take bis 40 cents worth ol
glnghalu and go , Mr. Quick's feoltnirs wore
not given nny balm on reading in tbo next
morning's papers an item to the effect that a
farmer was caught stealing two bolts of cloth
from tbo store , and that ho was made to din
gorge.
