The sensational controversy between
George .Joftroy nnd Edson P. Hich , by which
n legul partnership wus dissolved by the use
ot a revolver , was up for bearing before
Judge Scott ngatn yesterday.
The case on trial wna against Uiol ) , who
vtM ohargod with contempt , In tuts that ho
had refused to oajy it wdt of MIJ oour
The case was opened up by the lawyers
pei'ndlng v/iudnnd sparring for tlmo.
Air. Montgomery , attorney for Hlch , said
that thuro was n possibility of a settlement ,
and for that reason ho thought that a post
ponement-was ndvlsablo.
Judge Scott replied that , ho did not under
stand how Inwynrs could aettlo a contempt
caso. and as far us ho was concerned no
thought It would bo bolter to finish the case
and h.ivo It out of the way.
Mr. Montgomery was of the opinion that a
dnlay would not lower the dignity ot the
curt.
Mr. Hartlott , attorney for Jeffrey , said
that ho did not fuel justified in making nny
fcottlomcnt that would Interfere with the
other brocoedlugs. Ho v.oulit not trade on
ctio contempt proceedings.
Then thu ball was oponod.
Jpllniy Tells Ills Story.
Goorco .Jcffroy went upon the witness
stand and detailed ( no facts uf the partnership -
ship , the lOatrnlnlng order Hint bo alleged thnt
Uicn had violated and the affray which
toolt plnco In the ofllces of the llrm In the
United States bank building on July 21. On
that day. In company with Deputy Shoritr
Uuiloy hn wont thnro to servo thu Injunction
restraining Ulch Iroir Interfouni : with him
In looltlng over the books , papers and llrm
accounts. Ho entered thooflico and found
llieh slump in thu mam ofllco. The Injunc
tion wns handed to Ulch , after which he and
Dulloy nasscd into the third room.
A moment later Rich stepped to the door
and said : "George , you had bettor tot out.
of horn , as there Is no such llrm as Jcffroy &
illch. " Ho said that he had looked up the
law and that the ardor of the court did not
apply to him. Then Hich took out
his watch and told Jeffrey that If
ho did not get out within
five minutes ho would throw him out of thu
window. At tlio end of two minutes Hich
again entered the alllco and said : "Mow
you got out of here or I'll break your nock. "
A few minutes Inter ho m.ido a rush at
Tcftioy , and as ho did so JclTioy pulled his
revolver and fired , the lull sinking
Hlch in l no right arm , after which JolTroy
surrendered to the sheriff.
IJoputy Sheriff Dally was sworn and cor
roborated the stiitPincnt madu by Jaflroy.
On tint Otliur side.
The prosecution rested and the dofonco
opened , Kdson Hlch going upon ilia stnnd.
Ho remembered the service of the writ , and
I after receiving It , said that he
was very angry as ho considered that thoru
was no sucli llrm is Jeffrey & Hcch. Ho had
cancelled the lease on the ofllccrs , released
them In his own name and dissolved Iho part
nership. Ho told JefTroy that ho would
throw him out of the window , but it wns only
a blutT , as ho old not Intend to Jo anything
of the Ulnd.
Ho told Jeffrey lhat If ho did not got out
of the ollluo wlth'in live minutes that ho
would ttuow him out. After that ho sat
down and road the writ again. This made
him still nnurior , and getting tin wont to the
door of the room In which Jeffrey wns
sluing , called him a vile name , and again told
him to gut out of the oflleo and never return.
Again ho loft the loom , but .soon returned
to ask Jeffrey what ho would tuko and cot
out of the o 111 eo. As ho entered the
room Jeffrey shot. Witness was
about eight foot from Jeffrey when
the shot was fired. Witness had
no Intention of violating the order of the
court and had no intention of harming Jeff
rey.
rey.On Sunday , July 17 , when Joffrpv visited
thu ofllco in company with his llttlo boy ,
witness said that ho would break every bono
In his ( Jeffrey's ) body , if tdo child was not
with him. Hoyas angry nt that time ,
but did not mean what ho said. Hu did ,
however , upon that occasion , gran Jeffrey
nnd throw him out of HID ofllco , at tbo sumo
timn telling him to never como back.
Witness domed that ho Inid ever said that
thu restraining order did not apply to him.
M. L. Scars , a clerk In Hlch's otllco , ro
laicd the story of ttie shooting substantially
as told 'n Tin : Bun at the timo. He suw
Kiel ) go into the ofllco wlioro Jeffrey win
Bitting. A shot followed and Htch ran hack
into the main olllcn. The witness then
Bei7cd Jeffrey and disarmed him.
,1 u elf" Scut I'M Diii'lttlon.
Nothing important in the way of additional
evidence was elicited and Iho case was sub
mitted without argument. In rondorlnt' the
decision Judgg Scott said that It was very
clear to his mind that the defendant was
very angry and had shown n determina
tion to throw Jeffrey out of the
ofllco. Ho had read the order of
tbo court and wus interfering In
n very substantial manner with its opera
tion. To say nnvthltig ttiat had a tendency
to destroy tbo efficiency of the order of the
court was to violate that order. There wis
ho middle mound , and when an order of that
bind was Us'wed It Miould bu obeyed abso
lutely. Hlch wns lined 5100 and costs nnd
required to glvo a bond of i'MO to obey the
order of the couit hereafter. The j'udgo
laid ho would Imva doubled the line hod the
lulonduntiint already suffered nemo.
Thu attorney for the defendant stated that
thu cuso would not bu contested any further
tnd that the sentence would bu complied

The question of the sanity of tha prUonor
wus thu only one Involved In the trial. She
was perfectly calm during the reading of the
judge's ol.argo. The jury was out only ton
minutes. When the voralot was road she
smiled. She was then taken to jail , gaily
chatting. She will bo sent to ono of the
slate luiano asvlums.
Alice Mit.'holl will bo taken probably on
Monday or Tuesday to the insane asylum at
Bolivar , without her friends prefer her be-
Ini ; taken to Nashvlllo , in which case they
would have to pay for her treatment thero.
Siio showed no emotion of any kind at the
verdict. When the Jury was dlscharced she
adjusted her \oll and walked out of the
courtroom with thu smnc air of indiflorcneo
as has characterized her throughout.
The olfoct of the verdict on Lillin Johnson ,
who stands jointly Indiclod with Alice
Milche.ll , will doubllesb bo lo dismiss all
further proaoodingd agnlnut her. It would
hardly be logical lo press an indictment ,

BHK'S readers :

veloplnlo scoa sialks. These latter ought ,
when praullcaolv , to bo uprooted. They are
ot little use nnd absorb properties of sun and
soil wblrh the normal plants require. More
over , the resulting seeds are worthless. The
loots themselves are woody and dry and very

The exact porlod for harvesting will bo do-

ttummur , iho boot usually reaches its full de
velopment in the first days of Soptoinuor ,

"Thoro nro two methods of burVostlncr , I.e. ,
by hand and by macatno. In tno work by
hand the beet is taken hold of by the tops
and removed from the soil by the aid of a
trowel or two-prongod fork. The oujectlon
to this method is that the beets mo likely to
bu more or less unavoldauly bruised , thus In
creasing their liability to uurly decay , in
mechanical harvesting a machine which
loosens the soil on both sides of the row Ute
to be recommended. This readers easy iho
( lulling of the boot. Women and children
lollow in the path of the harvester and by a
clean stroke with u Unlfo or bluklo reinovo
Iho leaves and neck. That part of the ouct
which has pushed itself to iho surface and
been exposed to thu elements is always ro-
moved. It is poor in sugar and rich In s.uino
properties. In general , though , whether ox-
posud or not , a smalt part of iho neck is cut
oil. 1 am aware thnt this practice docs not
Ilnd favor in some quarters , ospaclally in
Franco , for precisely iho sumo loasoa that
bruising with a spade is to bo avoided , viz. :
it is feared lhat the julco will oscapu and
lhat early decay of the roots will follow
when stored. The uecks must bo cut off
some time before the beets gu into factory
consumption , howevor. and the Germans
universally prefer to do it on the ilclu. In
Austria tUo praulioo of removing the waste
parts when harvesting Is still iiioro general
aud amounts lo a trimming hero and there
all over the boots.
Storing tlio Heats.
"Beets intended for immediate consump
tion are thrown Into convenient heaps and
promptly transported to the factory. These
roots , however , which are to.bo worked up
later In the joason must In tbo meantime bo
nroporly protected , and precautionary meas
ures will vary according to conditions of
cllmatu and soil. The prublu.ri is to secure
protection from frost and at the sumo time lo
guaid against the development of two High a
temperature in the Mios , thus promoting
germination and tbo'-Uirowlnf- ot now
leaves. The methods of storing In Germany
are still riithor primitive. The sysiom most
In voguu Is to build a simple tronuh or cellar ,
round 01 oblong in xhapo and from UO to 40
conlirnolors (8 to 10 inches ) deep. The beets
are thrown Into this cellar and piled up
above Iho jurfaco to a height of about " 0
Inches. Us roots composing the outsldo
layer are packo 1 with the tapering end down
wards. The mound Is then covered with a
layer of lonvo' , and lo this Is added about 8
Inches of soil. Subsequently the layer
should bo Increased to ± y feet , but not mini
the frosty outlier sots In and thu frost has
lir.d time to penetrate iho original covering of
8 Inches.
"lixparlmbnts huvo boon conducted during
recent years with n view to devising moro
oxuct and surer methods of preserving the
boots In sound condition and at thu same timu
keeping intact their lull riugar Contents. A
variety of methods have boon tested , notably
ventilating shafts tor the free admission of
air nnd cellars with paved , 'alr-tlght bottoms
to lesson Iho ho.il generated by contact with
the soil , Tlio results obtained have neb bcun
accepted as salisfaulorv on all sides , nnd iho
older and simpler method nbovoTuforrod lo

Ooat of Cultivation.
"This question has a very practical inter
est for the American farmer. Ho finds him
self confronlcd with a now problem , the con
ditions uutrlod and the results uncertain.
Very naturally , before risking such an enter
prise. ho dositos to know the detailed costs
of production aud iho relurns to bo retailed.
These inquiries cun only bo aatlsfactorlly
answered oy actual experiment ; Some tints
may , however , bo given.
"In estimating tbo various items of ox-
panto cntoriut ; lute cuUivallon thq question
of wages must bo assigned a loading placo.
So Important is it. Indeed , that manr- Her
mans of experience freely oppress the ;
opinion that tbo relatively high raio-otxvugos
in tha United Status must ulfeuuiiilly prevent -
vent that country Irotn over being a danger
ous competitor. This opinion is ri.ot uni
versal , It Is true , but It U widespread. It
ought not to bo forgolten , hbiycvor. that this
disparity In wages will ba In part- offset by
the cheapness of hind with UK. Here land
rent Is no small factor. Thu iviigoa vary ac
cording to supply and demand , Men rooelvo
all the way from -15 to 83 cants per day ;
women , from 1IJ to CO cents , and children ,
from 10 to 20 cents. Tuo latter arq not al
lowed to work over six hours a day. The
above figures often Include particularly on
tbo largest lurmi a berth to loop In and an
allowance of simple fool. Large numbora of
I'oloi uru employed each foasou in certain
districts , and the wages usually Include jooj
ana ihulter , of the cheapest conceivable
character , howovor. The prevailing mbthod
of cultivation In ( jormany makes tno cm-
ploymeut of a very large number of bands
necessary. Tbo wages problem becomes ,
tboroforo , a sorlom one. It Is to bo nbierroa
la this connection , though , that the employ
ment of women and hTldron is the rule
rather than the exception , nnd that tnn say-
Inc made possible In this direction is con
siderable.

"Tho statomnnt was made In a former re
port that from twonty-sovon to thirty pounds
of seed are sown to the acre in Germany.
This quantity so far exceeds the allowance
usually recommended In the United States
that various letters of Inquiry have been re
ceived ns n result. Hcnowod Investigations ,
hoxvovor , confirm the accuracy of the state-
ruout In question. The reasons for this largo
quantity have boon hinted nt before
tbo roots suffer loss from frost
and insects. May frost bore may
snfoly bo reckoned with. When the
oools are elosu together oniy the outer ono *
nro damaged , and these compressing against
the insldo plants form , an effectual protection.
This Is Important , slnco a rosowlng Is looked
upon as prejudicial to tbo complete success
of the crop. Again , in proportion an the
roots are thickly planted insects are loss
likely to devour or ruin the whole crop. Ex
perience has also shown that beets grow
moro evenly with a heavy sowing. It is
further probable that tbo dcurnoss of the
land makes it highly important to utilize all
uvollablo spaco.
"It must bo berne In mind , though , thnt
this prescription is the ono that has noon
found oost for Gorman climatic conditions.
In. localities where no May frosts occur , and
where uninterrupted warm weather may bo
counted upon to promote stuady vegetation ,
twenty pounds or even loss will probably bo
found'sufllclont. llio qpa way of exactly
determining this will b"o bv actual trial. It
will bo safer lo risk taking too much seed
than too llttlo. , i
"The cultivation of seeds is onn of the
most dillleul * . branches of the Industry. It
calls , first of all , forjsoU in a high slnlo of
eulltvatlon aud capable , of yielding a very
superior boot. Great energy , scientific
Knowledge , and ample , financial means uro
further nocossaty adjuncts. For some years
to como it will bo altogether best for Ameri
can farmer * and cultivators to buy tbolr

After long years of waiting the tlmo has
arrived when the mayor ot the city ot Omaha
can transact the publlo business In a build
ing owned by this great city.
This has not always boon the caio , nnd
when Mayor BomU nits in his mahogany fur
nished room , resting in n soft and Huffy up.
bolstered chair , ho can reallzn that ha Is the
lint of the twenty mayors of Omaha who
has boon so fortunate.
It Is true that sluco 13. , the data on which
Mayor Lowe tooie up the rows of govern
ment , the city has always provided quarters
for Its oxocutlvcs , but they hava boon any
thing but palatial apartments.
Mayor Lowe , who signed $150,000 of
Omaha scripwas tbo first mayor , aim during
his term of ofllco ho occupied n llttlo one-
story brlolc olllco , that for many years stood
nt tbo corner of Twelfth ana Haruoy stroots.
There , ami in that room , the sessions of the
city council were hold.
A. J. Popploton , who succeeded Mayor
Lowe , kept the mayor's ofllco in his law
ofllco. As Mr. Popploton in these days did
not have an nbundunco of worldly goods ,
consequently ho kunt the books and papers
ot the mayor's olllce in a dlnuy baok room on
Fnrimm , near Twelfth street.
Mayor D. D. Beldcn , who attached his
ofllclal autograph to tbo deeds of the city
crnntlng lands and lots to the Union Pacific
Killroad company , hnd an ofllco In n two-
story frame building , situated where Henry
Pundt's store on Farnnm street now stands.
Mayor Briggs was at homo over a little
grocery store , which was in a f.vo-storv
building on tha north side of Farnam , just
east of Thirteenth street.
Mayor Armstrong , Mayor Kennedy nnd
Mayor ( illmoro each. i'i turn , took up their
quarters in the Pioneer clock , which is now
occupied by Goodman's drug storo.
Mayor Lorin Miller got Into ofllco In time
to occupy rooms in the old framu court house
that stood at Sixteenth and F.irnum , on the
silo now occupied by the 1'axton blooic.
Mayor C. H. Brown did not go Into the
court house , but moved Iho olllco to the second
end lloor of the frame building which stood
at the corner of Fourteenth and Douglas
streotH , where tbo Nebraska Clothing com
pany block now stands.
Mayor Uoboris , when elected , moved Into
thu back room , on tbo third floor of ibo old
People's theater building. His successor ,
Alayqr Ezra Mlllard , during his lorm of
olllce occupied the same room , but when S.
fc > . Caldwell was elected ho moved the ofllco
Into his own building , n couple of doors cast.
Mayor J. H. Millard put the otllco on
wheels nnd moved it over to the Hcllman
block , which In tboso days was u throe-story
structure.
Mayor Champion S. Chase found n homo
for the oflico in the old Patlou blook , n frame
bullalne which slood at the corner of Sixteenth
and Farnara , where the Commercial National
bank Is now standing. This same room was
occupied by Mayor Loubon Wilbar , who sur
rendered the control of the city to Mayor
James E. Boyd. Mr. Bovd held the olilco
In bis own building nn Harnoy street.
When Mayor Broatch wont into ofllco ho
hold forth nt two plaeos. Part ol the city
business ho transacted In his store on Har-
nov street nnd the balance in tbo Exposition
bulldlni ; annex at Fourteenth and Daren-
pott streets.
Mayor Cusblng concluded that the ofllco
entitled the bolder to at least reason able
quarters and moved lute the New Yurie Llfo
bulldlne. Thorn he staid until succeeded by
Mayor Bemis , who occupied the same rooms
until yesterday , when ho moved into the now

aud General ( Utility ) Smith. Thu latter Is
really ono of the most rflldont olllcors In ser
vice , readiest In oxpcdlnnts and most skillful
in Iho inntmcomcnt of troops in action. I
would dlsllko removing him from his present
command unless It was to increase It , but , us
I say , may have It to do yet if General But
ler remains. As an administrative nfllcor
General Butler has no superior. In taking
charge of a department where lliore are no
great battles lo bo fought , but a dissatisfied
clement to control , no ono could manage it
better than bo.
If n command could bo cut out such ns Mr.
Dana proposed , imnioly , Koiucky , Illinois
and Indiana , or if the departments of the
Missouri , Kansas nnd iho stales of Illinois
and Indiana could bo irorgod together and
General Butler put over It , I bollevo the
good of the service would bo subserved. '
regret the necessity of asking for n change
in commanders here , but General Butler , not
boltiK a soldier by education or experience ,
Is in the hands of his subordinates
in tbo execution of all operations
military. 1 would fcol strengthened
with timlth , Franklin or J. J Reynolds com
manding tha right wing of thu army. At
the same tlmo , as I have bora stated , Gen
eral Butler has always been prompt in his
obodloncu to bis ordor.s from mo and clear In
his uudnrstnndmg of thorn. I would nut ,
therefore , bo willing to recommend his re
tirement. 1 send this by mnll for considera
tion , but will telegraph if I think it abso-
lulolv necessary lo make n change. I am ,
general , very respectfully , your obedient
servant , U. S Gitvvr ,
Llouiunnnt General.

U. S. Grant , City Point , Vn. : General Your
note of Ibo 1st Instant in relation to General
Butler Is just received. I will , as you propose -
pose , await further advlcos from you before
1 submit the matter ofllclnlly to the secre
tary of war and Ibo president. It was foreseen -
soon from the first that you would eventu
ally Hnd it necessary to relieve General B.
on account of his total tinfltness to command
in tha Hold and his generally qtinrrclsonia
character , What shall ba douo with him has ,
therefore , already noon , as Inm Informed , a
matter of consultation. To send him to Ken
tucky would probably ciuso nn inuurrocllou
In that slate und'an Immbdlaia call Tor largo
reinforcements. Moreover , ho would piob-
ably greatly embarrass Snorman. It ho did
not atlompt to supersede him , by using
against him nil his talent nt political in-
Irlguo and his facilities for ncwspaporabuso.
It you soiid him to Missouri nearly the same
thing will occur there. Although it might
not bo objectionable to have a free light between
twoon him and Kosocrans tbo trovorumcnt
would bo seriously embarrassed by tbo local
difllcultles , and calls for reinforcements
likely to follow. Invoteruto as is
Hosecrans'j habit of continually callIng -
Ing for moro troops , Butler
differs only In demanding instead of calling.
As things now stand in the west , I think wo
can kuop the ponce , but If Butler ho thrown
In as n disturbing uloment I anticipate vurv
serious results. Why not leavn General
Butler In the local command of his depart
ment. Including North Carolina , Norfolk.
Fort Monroe , Yorktown , etc. . nnd make n
now urmv corps of thu part of tuoElghleonlh
under Smith ) This would leave B. under
your Immediate control. and nt the
same time would relieve you of his
prusonco in the Held Moreover , it
would save the necessity of organising n now
dupartmcnt. If ho must bo relieved entirely
I think it would bo best to make n now du-
partinont for him In Now England. I mnko
these remarks merely as suggestions. What
ever you may llnally determine on I will trv
to have dono. As General B. claims to
rank mo I shall glvo him no orders , whuruvor
bo may go , without thu special direction of
yourself or the secretary of war. Yours
truly , H. W. HALT.ICK : ,
Major General.
