1 to Tin : nr.i : 1 For the second time In the
history of Nebraska n court of impeachment
| convened nt tlic state bouso tills after
noon to try ofllclals for mlsdemcan-
nrs nnd malfeasance In ofllce. Upon
tlio first occasion tlio Impeached ofllciai
was Governor David Butler and tlio trial re-
nulled In Ills removal from ofllco. Upon tlio
present occasion tlio ofllccrs on trial are At-
tonicy ( leneral Hastings , Secretary of State
Allen and Commissioner of 1'ubllo Lands
and Buildings Humphrey. Tlio question of
the trial of ex-Treasurer Hill , ex-Auditor
Benton and ex-Attorney General Loeso has
not yet been settled , as tlio Jurisdiction of
the court has been attacked and the decision
of the judges upon tlio disputed point Is still
( lending.
The Interest In the present Impeachment
cases has been Intense and the preliminary
work has been itono with much greater care
than in ordinary cases. The man
agers of impeachment , assisted by
their counsel. Judges Lambcrtson , Doanot
Pound and Greene , bavo been active In the
weeks which have elapsed since the adjourn
ment of the legislature , In putting their evi
dence In shape , securing their witnesses
and in fortifying themselves with all
authorities bearing upon the rase. The
counsel for the defense have been similarly
employed , and as a result of this
preparation both sides are fully
equipped to malic a desperate light. All the
available a pace in the somewhat contracted
quarters of the supreme court routn was oc
cupied by tho'acoused , the attorneys and In
terested spectators.
ComiHUI anil Spectators.
Among the counsel for the defendants are :
John L. Webster of Omaha , Jiidgo M. L.
Hayward of Nebraska City , J. 11. Webster ,
Judge Broady , C. A. Atkinson , It. D. Stearns
and Captain Murlln. Attorney General
Hastings , Secretary Allen and Commissioner
Humphrey were present , as a matter of
course , while with thorn was ex-Treasurer
Hill. Er-Attornc.v General Leeso was an
interested listener in the rear part of the
room , while ex-Auditor Benton wasconsplcu
ously absent.
At a few minutes afterSo'clock the Judges
of the supreme court Arcro announced , and
ns they entered from the consultation room
the attorneys , impeached ofllclals and spec
tutors rose to their feet , and with this sim
ple recognition of the dignity which stir-
rounds the court of impeachment the trial
was commenced.
Judfro Post in behalf of the other mem
bers of the bench stated that the court had
had no opportunity to consult with 1-efcrrnco
to the matter of Jurisdiction regarding the
trial of Hill and Bcnton.
The attorneys in charge of 'tho trial ob
jected to the supreme court room , urging
that It was too small for the accommoda
tion of themselves , their clients and the
public. Chief Justice .Maxwell concurred ,
and after today the sessions of the court
Vvlll bo held In thu senate chamber.
to Amended Ch-.irgvi.
J. M. Stewart , attorney for Lccso , ob
looted to the filing of amended charges
stating that they had not been concurred ii
by the senate and house of representatives
Judge Donne , on behalf of the managers of
the Impeachment , said that ho wanted to
glvo Mr. Leeso the benefits of the denials ho
had ii'.ado in his answer.
Mr. Stewart thought that the statement
was not correct , as now specifications had
been added. Two of the specifications wen
made out of whole cloth. Olio was that hi
had drawn $ Tf > 0 In connection with cases in
the supreme court and had not expended th
snino , ami another charges that ho had cm
bczzled money which was appropriated
for traveling" expenses and stationery
Mr. Stewart denied that the at
torneys lor the state had any
right to prefer Impeachment charges ,
charges that the Joint session refused to
prefer. The court had no right to grant a
prosecutor the opportunity of amending an
indictment.
it was claimed by John L. Webster that in
adopting the articles of impeachment the
legislature precluded the possibility of
adding any now matter. There never was a
clearer attempt to usurp legislative power
than the attempt of the managers of this
impeachment to bring Into these articles
matter not considered by thu legislature.
Article * ItiMi-rvcd the IllRht to Amend ,
Replying to the argument of General Web
ster , Judge Doano called the attention of the
court to the closing paragraph of thu articles
of impeachment , presented by the joint con
vention , which expressly reserved the right
to alter or amend the articles or to furnish
additional specifications and to reply to the
answers of the sanm. Ho claimed that the
additional specifications came properly under
the same general charge contained In tlie
third artlclo of Impeachment. The other
ma tiers which the state wished to correct
wore simple changes in phraseology. In the
original articles of impeachment it was
charged that Leeso , as a member of the
Board of Public Uinds and Buildings , let
certain contracts for supplies. Technically
this was not correct , as the contracts wcro
let by the hoard of purchase and supplies.
Judge Doano asserted that the counsel on
the other sldo were endeavoring to govern
the court of impeachment by the technical
rules governing ordinary criminal cases ,
whereas all the authorities explicitly assert
that such rules are not In any case appli
cable to trial on Impeachment.
AUItudu nl tlio State.
Ho desired the court to understand the at-
tltudo taken by the counsel for the state in
the proscti teases , and ho desired to protest
on the behalf Of the managers- against the
adoption of any rules founded on the inero
technicalities and quibbles of criminal prac
tice which would enable tlu > accused ofllcluis
to escape trial of the charges against them
upon the turn of a technical point In the
criminal cede Ho then quoted Judge Story
on the ronstlti.tU.il to back the -argument ho
had Jint iiuutiv and closed with an eloquent
pica for a trial of the case upon its mcrita
without r'sorl to the quibbling of a criminal
court Ho wanted the trial to thus proceed ,
not because the state wished to convict the
accused of i-rlmes that would send them to
the penitentiary , but to the end that when
it was shown that when men elected to high
oftlclal positions had proven themselves un
faithful servants of the pcoplo tho\ , should
bo driven from ofllco.
J M. Stewart arose to reply , but sat down
when Chief Justice Maxwell stated , "Well ,
I guess the C-ASO will bo consldcrci1. . "
Ou-nrtl | Ilin Trial ,
Judge Pound , for the managers of the Im
peachment , In statinir the law and the evi
dence , t aid that ho was pleased to know that
the trial would ho held before the highest
tribunal In the state , before a court where !
clamor and petty discussions would not be
tolerated The court , he suld. could not bo
unmindful of the character of trial , the Im
portance of the event ; the prominent posi
tions in which thn accused had been held
made the event one. that was being watched
vrltn Interest throjghout the entire country
The judgment would IKS the same , whothei
, the trial was held before the court or the
senato. The imiH'a-'huirnt , ho said , was of .1
purely | Hllltal ! nature to punish ofiiclals foi
juUduuieauors fi > r cnmts committed in ofllce
Acts of misconduct that officials might com
mit are Innumerable. If tfio governor of a
state could open the doors of the peniten
tiary nnd turn the criminals loose upon the
country , ho would bo guilty of misconduct
and would be liable to Impeachment. Im
peachment trials could not be confined to the
close rules of evidence as cases at common
law. This fact , ho said , gave the court
just discretion , It was not a proceeding
cither criminal or civil. It was a special
proceeding ; H wns not a criminal case ; it
was not an indictment : if it was , then the
accused would be entitled to n jury trial.
While there was something about impeach
ment trials that resembled criminal pro
ceedings , it was on account of the severe
penalty attached if the charges were sus
tained. If the charges were sustained the
impeached officials would bo disqualified
from holding office.
Leaving that subject the judge dovotwl
some tlmo to reading from thu statutes
whlrli define the duties of the Board of Pub
lic Lands and Buildings and then read at
length the charges preferred , together with
the findings of the legislative committee.
I low Doi-jrttu WHR llandli'd.
When the members of the board employed
Dorgan they gave him every advantage.
They knew that Dorgan was the agent for
two parties , thu agent for the state and the
agent for Moshcr. If they bail been going
to erect a cell housu for themselves would
they have employed such a man , a superin
tendent who was representing two parties ?
Such a thing was a heedless net if nothing
more. The Jud o said hu would prove that
Dorgan let the contract labor at jl per day ,
while other convicts wcro working for other
parties at10 cents per day. The members of
the hoard knew this , anu if they hud wanted
to servo the interests of the state they
should have called u halt. It was a case of
gross negligence , to say the least , without
there was some satisfactory explanation.
"Possibly It may bo , sir. " continued the
Judu'o , "that the convicts who worked on the
cell house were more skillful , but 1 think we
shall show you that many of them were raw
men , and wcro no moro skillful than those
who worked for other parties at10 and 50
cents per day. "
"Wo shall prove that the custom w as to
ijlvo Dorgan a largo warrant before the work
was dono. They let him deposit the war
rant In the bank and check out $7.000 or
$8,000 without having any idea of what work
had been performed aside from his own
statement. It Is true that there was a bond
for something lilto $10,000 , but what kind of
bond was that ! After ho had purchased the
contract of Mosher ho acted as the agent of
the board-for some thirty days. Placing
fO.OOO or $8.000 in Dorgatfs hands to check
out as ho pleased was a lack of good Judg
ment , If nothing moro. The duty was cast
upon this board to take care of the funds ;
there was no authority above them to check
their accounts , which made it doubly imper
ative upon them to use care. Wo shall
provu that Dorgan i paid for stone two or
three times what it was worth and two and
thrco times moro than other parties had of
fered it. There was Atwood who sold Dor
gan stone for ! V > cents per foot , when from
other parties he could have bought it for
much less. They called a cubic foot of stone
100 pounds , when the true weight is 140
pounds. This appears right on the accounts ,
and can bo read by any person. That's the
way they did business ,
Diverted to IVrsniml Unm.
"Wo also claim that these parties commit
ted fraud when they took $500 which had
been set apart for the cell house and used it
for traveling expenses , in going to Kansas
and other states to visit prisons. This was
in December , 1801. Instead of watting until
the legislature should meet and make an ap
propriation , they got Mr. Dorgan to glvo
them the money that was appropriated for
the cell house. If they can divert ? 500 foi
another purpose , they can divert any
amount. If they had diverted money to
some charitable institution , it could not have
been justified , and why could they justifj
this diversion for traveling expenses ! Wo
will say that they acted honestly , but
officials who will so misconstrue the law as
to honesty are unsafu parties to have it
power.
A limit the Asylum Conl.
"Wo think that wo shall bo able to show
you that when these respondents wcro in
office , the coal at the hospital for the insane
was paid for at nearly double what it was
worth. During 188S the COH ! bill was $10,208
in 183' ) , $10.820 ; In 1800 , $15,547 ; in 1801 , $10 ,
747 , and in WJtl , $8,410. This shows that
there was fraud , and when the returns
showed that the amount had nearly doubled
was it not tlmo for the mcmours of this boari
to boon their guard f Was it not a clrcum
stance that should have caused any hones
official to have instituted an inquiry , J
fraud upon the state ono that has passct
unpublished. We shall show you that no
much moro than one-half of the coal was
over furnished. There wcro no additiona
heating apparatus put into the hospital am
why did they show the coal for IB'.il to havi
cost so much more than for 1SUJ. TaKe th
Hour purchased for the asylum. Sowcll & .
Co. . had the contract and they bought of
Johnson & Co. During ono month the con
tractor bought 111,000 pounds and charged the
statu with 18,800 pounds , a clear , palpable
'raud which the board should have Known
somcthlmr about if it had been looking after
the welfare of the state and thu people.
"If these ohargcs are true they Constitute
nisdcmeanor in office. When thesu reports
of shortings cainu to the attention of thu leg-
slators , they took steps to correct affairs.
Such plain misconduct , such open violation
of law could not bo overlooked without pro
viding safeguards for the futuru. Impeach
ment 1ms been an efficient engine in the past
ind must bo adopted as the only means of
irotectlon. If it shall appear at the close
) f the trial that these charges are true and
that thu accused parties are innocent , the
people should rejoice. "
Dufciuo Spurring for Wind.
John R. Webster , as counsel for Attorney
General Hastings , declared that there was
some of the evidence that was not consid
ered in thu joint convention. If that was
the truth In1 wanted to demur. The conven
tion did not adopt thu articles.
Chief Justice Maxwell suggested that the
proper thing as to grapple with the real
question.
Judgu Doano said that it was folly for Mr.
Webster to argue such a point. The report
and Its adoption was the finding of tlio legis
lature .
Mr. Webster read his demurrer on the case
against Secretary Allen , showing that ho
should not bo required to answer , averring
that none of the evidence was heard by
either the senato. house of representatives
or by thu joint convention. The prayer
asked that the articles of impeachment , so
far as the Allen case was concerned , should
bo declared void. In closing , the legal docu
ment declared that there was no attempt
upon Mr. Allen's parttodefraud.
Mr. Webster did not contend that the wit
nesses should have been brought before the
house , but the convention should have con
sidered the testimony.
John L , Webster , aUornuy for Mr. Hill ,
said thut ho wanted tlmo to confer with his
associates regarding tlio matter.
Chief Justice Maxwall answered that he
would bo willing that the gentlemen should
take time to consult. Upon the question of
jurisdiction ho thought that an opinion
might he handed down tomorrow morning.
With that statemcjit the first day of the im
peachment trial ended and the court ad
journed until It o'clock tomorrow morning.

Sioux Cltr. la. , May 1. [ Special Tele
gram to TUB Bun. ] Affairs In connection
with the recent failures In this city com
mence to partake very much of the color of
crookedness. Rumors have been current to
this effect for several days and reports of
fraud have been wired out , but until today
nothing has been given to the public by per
sons authorized to speak.
When the Union Loan and Trust company
assigned , its schedule showed liabilities of
$74,1,874.53 , and assets of $1,4M,000. That
this statement is calculated to. deceive is
apparent from the following statement
given to tlio press today by Assignee Hub-
bard :
"I have not gone far enough to bo able to
make a statement of thu exact amount of
liabilities of the company , but from various
sources I learn Indefinitely that they are
about $0,000,000. This includes both direct
and indirect liabilities , the latter being1 on
account of notes endorsed by the company.
This Indorsed paper was mainly that of the
syndicate , of the individual members of the
syndicate , or of the companies connected
with it. I cannot now state how much paper
of the different companies or Individuals was
issued. The paper has been sold all over the
country ; it Is held mainly by banks. No , I
cannot estimate the per cent that the com
pany will bo able to pay.
May Xcver Hi ) Known.
Of those contingent liabilities , no proof of
liability may be furnished In many Cases.
It Is necessary that proper proof of the com
pany's liability be filed within thrco months.
In thu case of a piece of paper that was
otherwise secured than by the Indorsement
of this company , it might not bo considered
necessary to flic this proof , ns It would be
considered fully secure without this. Thus
it is impossible to tell how much of the paper
will come back to us. Somu of it may bo
paid elsewhere by the people directly liable ,
and thus the paper never come back to us.
It will take a month for me to got affairs
straightened out so that I can tell anything
definite anout the situation. "
The syndicate referred to is made up of
D. T. Hedges , A. S. Garretson , Edward
Haakinson and John Hornick and at one
tlmo Included James E. Booge.
Quantities of Paper Iteimillatoil.
.ivnothor sensation was created today when
Receiver Chfsloy of the Union Stock Yards
company repudiated a large quantity of
paper held against that company. It was all
In the shape of promissory notes running of
date for several .vcars and now commencing
to come duo. All notes are made payable by
this Stock Yards company and signed by W.
T. Hedges , president.
Receiver Chcsley says ; "I have repudiated
this paper because the Stock Yards company
is not liable. Mr. Hedges signed notes
without authority from the directors
or other ofllccrs of the company , and
the company's ' books show that the
money raised by it was never turned
over to its treasurer. I take the ground that
it was illegally issued and shall repudiate
all of It. There is to my knowledge several
hundred thousand dollars worth of this
paper outstanding nnd not a cent will bo
paid on it unless the courts make us liable.
We have not taken any action in the matter.
It is not for us to do so. The persons who
paid the money to Mr. Hedges are the ones
to take steps if any one. The paper is scat
tered over the whole country and the loss
will not fall heavily on any person. I have
not had time to find out who holds it yet and
will bo retarded in the work for the reason
that the company's books do not contain a
scratch of the pen In reference to it.1'

How H llt'cmit Tragmly ICpaitll * n Story of
the Itlg Horn Ha ln.
BUFFALO , Wyo. , May 1.--Special [ to Tim
BEE. ] The killing of 'Peter Madden , In the
Big Horn basin bv James McDermott , April
27 , recalls a tragedy of two years ago f. the
name locality. On March Hi , IS'.ll , Tom
ttadden , who Is now in Laramle penitcn-
.lary . , fired two shots at McDormott. ono of
which wounded him seriously and the other
tilled his infant son , Phil , whom ho was
carrying In his arms. Curious as It may
appear , MoDormott and not Madden , was
afterward charged with thu death of the
hlld , on the ground that Madden , whoso
Ifo was In danger , had fired In self-defense.
McDermott was defended by Charles H.
Burrltt , who In cross-examination of the
Madden brothers and of the prisoner's wife ,
elicited some testimony that rather pointed
; o MeDermott as tho'Injurcd party. It was
jollovcd by many who heard the case that
the Maddens had put up a plot to kill Mc
Dermott , and that the wffo who was on
rather too Intimate terms with one of them
was a party to the plot.
Madden swore that he was expecting
trouble when MoDennptt camo.to fetch his
wife and that before ho fired ho saw u gun
in McDermott's hand. He also swore that
that the child was In McDermott's arms
and was shot by mistake. On the other
tiand McDermott testified that he went to
the house unarmed and carrying the child ;
andthutwhilo Tom Madden covered him
with a gun Pete Madden searched him and ,
finding no weapon , called to his brother to
shoot , saylne it Vns the best chance he
would ever have. McDcrmott thc.ii saw the
flash , heard ono shot ! nnd knew no more.
The medical evidence was positive that the
child was shot from above downwards , and
is McDermott is ns tall as Madden , it
looked us If MoDormoU must have been on
the ground when the baby was killed.
The evidence of Mrs. McDermott , who
was in the Madocn'a house at the time , cor
roborated that of thefMaddcns in the main ,
but little credence was Riven to Pete Mad-
den's testimony. Tbei case against McDer
mott was dismissed , but ho was at once rearrested -
arrested by a United States deputv marshal
on a charge of robbing ; the mails. Tom Mad
den was also arrested shortly afterward on
a charge of horsu stealing and was subse
quently handed ovor'to Sheriff Stouffh of
Fremont county , and tried and convicted on
another charge. HdiUvas who lately was
shot while ranking > u desperate attempt to
escape from the liarnmlo penitentiary , At
that tlmo the Maddens lived together , and
after Tom Madile.ii anii-McDermott wcro i'o-
moved it appears that"Airs. MeDermott wont
to live with , P. etc M&dden , the man'just
killed. At trio time of the former trial Mc
Dermott claimed to have proofs of his wife's
infidelity and to , have 'determined , to opa- .
rate from her , taking with him one of the
children. It was this that gave rise to the
shooting scrape In which his little boy was
killed and ho himself had such u close call.
The present tragedy is probably n sequel to
the story of his former trouble.
Potc Madden was killed in Bonanza and
MoDcrmott started at once to give himself
up. On his road he mot Deputy Sheriff
Hopkins and came on to Buffalo in his com
pany.

ST. Lens , Mo. , May 1. Another foot of
rlso in the river flooded the villages on the
East Side , a collapsed warehouse , which
resulted in one death , and a prospect of a
repetition of the scunes of a year aco. This
tells the story of the high water hero
tonight. The river at ( i o'clock this evening
showed a rise of a fraction of an inch over n
font since last night , and the water is still
creeping up on the guage. There is every
probability that by tomorrow night the
danger mark thirty-two feet will bo
'cached. Up to (1 ( o'clock this evening the
vater had caused the abandonment of the
greater portion of Kast Carondclct. The
elcirraph ofltco connecting St. Louis with
hat place and several other buildines were
vaslicd away. The body of an unknown
nan was washed ashore tills afternoon near
ho site of the wrecked telegraph ofllce.
At Belleville KIchland creek has over-
lowed its banks and filled many basements ,
jovcrul manufacturing establishments have
icon forced to shut down , their boiler rooms
icing Inundated.
On this side of the river North St. Tous !
s so far the worst sufferer. The Stout I.um-
> er company's yard Is In imminent danger of
icing washed away. The district of squat-
ers known as "Oklahoma" ' .s now a vast
ako with hero and there a hastily vacated
shanty protruding a few feet above tlio
rater's surface. South of the city proper ,
> ctwuen Arsenal street and Carondelet the
scene is a repetition of a year ago. The
owlands arc flooded and the squatters have
> een forced to vacate their shanties. All , or
icarly all , of their few possessions have
> een washed away.
A committee from the east tonight says
he water practically covers all of Brooklyn
and that numbers of people are moving out
of their houses.
Venice , too , it seems , is again to suffer , as
lie flood tonight is encroaching rapidly
upon that place.
The Kast St. Louis dock warehouse , im
mediately south of the Eadcs bridge , gave
ray before the rush of water about noon
and fully one-fourth of the vast building ,
vith its heavy contents , fell in a heap , the
oof sinking upon the wreck. Ono of the
aborcrs , Cicero 1'ate , colorcu. was crushed
o death under the debris and has not yet
been found. Two other laborers were in
ured. The loss to the building and stock of
, joods will be quite heavy , as much that was
lot broken will bo spoiled by the water.
The building is said to belong to Chicago
icoplo and was used as a general warehouse.
