8 THE OMAHA DAILY HEOfr FRIDAY , JANIM11Y IS ) , 1801 , FOUGHT BACK TO THE CELLS Prisoners at the Ootmty Jail Make an Attack on Dsputy Ernest WAY HE COULD FIGHT SURPRISED THEM Ina KnonUcil Irn nnd Uthcrt do Hack to Tholr CiiKfi I'lun to Dot the linyn nnd inciic : ; | l.oil by Do lTanoo > A turnkey's plucky resistance foiled ft duspurato nnd almost successful attempt at Jail delivery at the county jail nt half past 7 o'clock last evening. Jailer Miller had gone to Hastings and at that hour Turnkey S umiel Ernest was alone in charge of the Jail. Ho board a sudden commotion in one of tim caves In thu west annex and ran in 13 sno what was the matter. The first cage In the upper tier was oc cupied l > y W. D. Do Franco , the Gordommail robborv and John Christiansen , a Swede , who Is charged with a recent burglary at South Omaha. When Ernest arrived the two men ap peared to bo lighting desperately in their cage. Do Francs , who is by far the most imverful man of the two , had his opponent's head against Ono corner of the cage , and fcirlng that ho would Inlllct some serious Injury , the turnkey sprang Into the cage to ncparato thorn. The act came near being a fatal ono for him. Ho had no sooner opened the door than the prisoners lot go of each other and leaped upon the turnkey. Do Franco grasped him by the arms and triced to throw him down , whllo Christiansen kicked him repeatedly in the stomach. Attacked Then liy 11 Dozen. Ernest was taken by surprise , but was not disposed to yield easily. Ho partially tore himself from their grasp and struggled to keep them from leaving the cage. Chris tiansen saw that they had no easy task on thulr hands and grasped the lover that aliened all the cages In that section. A elnglo pull anil ten other criminals sprang to the assistance of their fellows. The turn key was fighting right and loft , and In the narrow confines of the cage his opponents could not bring their full force to boar. Some of thorn throw Ernest on the floor and choked and kicked him. while the others ran Into the corridor to look for the keys that opened tbo outsldo doors and tbo path to liberty. Srcnrn * Itllly nnd Knock ! Two Down. Meanwhile Ernest refused to down and finally ho succeeded In getting hold of n billy , with which bo sent a couple of the prisoners to the Iloor. Tney found that they could not hope to escape before assistance nrrlvcd and llnally wont back in their cells without further violence. Ernest pulled himself together and when assistance nrrlvcd bad the last of the attempted. Jail breakers locked in their cages. When the row started Jailer Miller's boy ran down the street and called to a patrol man for help. Sergeants Ormsby and Whalcn were Just colug to the hotel for supper when they met the boy , and hurried to the Jail to llnd that there was no need for their ser vices. Oil TlRlit Only n ISltml. The ofllcers are convinced that the flcht In the cage was a shrewdly planned move toward an escape. The men had probably learned that Miller was away and thought that they could easily overpower a single man. But they had not counted on the turn key's capacity for resistance. Do Franco Is the man who was given a life sentence at the last term of the federal court for attacking the mail messenger at torddir ! , < Nob. , and rooblng him of his pouches. Ho only obtained a single copper cent in the way-of booty , but the fact that lie had placed the life of a mail carrier in Jeopardy caused him to get a life term. His cell raato is a criminal of lesser notn and has not yet been placed on trial. The turnkey was not seriously injured in the fracas , but was severely bruised about the head and body. Iluvo Vim Aftthma ? Dr. K. Scliiffmnnn. St. Paul , Minn. , will mail n trial packagn of Schiffmann's Asthma Cure free to any sufferer. Ho advertises by giving it array.

MUST BECOtrNT-flLL VOTES. ilatlRO llnxter Drchlcs It Neccssnrj In thu County Cli-rk Content Cants The Tracy-Sackott election contest opened up again yesterday In the county court nnd held the boards for a short time , after which an adjournment was tikcn till after noon in order to permit of the filing of some additional papers. When the case was called at the morning Rssion of the court H : J. Davis , tbo attorney for Sackott , raised the point that the amended complaint did not como within the meaning of the order of the court , and that it sot up now matter , or matter.that was not in the original complaint. Ho s'atd the con testant alleged that thcro wcro legal votes cast for him and that they wcro not counted by the election boards. Judge Haxtpr ruled that bo would not per mit any amendments that would tend to throw out votes cast for the contcstce , as a pleading In that direction would certainly bo iu the nature of setting up now matter. Cliilincil Contestant Was ll.irrcil. Following the line of argument started upon , Mr. Davis contended that If thcro was any charge of the failure to count the legal votes , it should have been made within twenty days after the canvass by the elec tion boards of the wards and precincts. If the charge was not mndo within that time the contestant was burred from pleading inch claim. C. J. Smyth , attorney for Tracy , urged that it was his intention to Include nothing In the amended complaint that tvas not pleaded in the original paper , Judgu Itaxter was of tlio opinion that the now complaint went Bomawhat beyond tbo meaning of the order of the court In setting up now and additional matter. After striking from the complaint the objectionable features the attorney for Mr. Sackott was given until 8:30 : o'clock in the afternoon to tlio his amended answer. At the opening of the afternoon session of the court tlio additional papers were Hied nnd the decks woro. cleared for action , It hclnc anticipated that the Introduction of testimony would begin. That , however , was where some people were mistaken , for there was nothing of the kind In store for the witnesses who had been called to tell what they know about tbo conducting and holding of last November's election , JSccdiint nt All Votes Decided On , To the surprise of all parties concerned , County Judpo Haxtor reversed his own opinion , banded down a day or two ago , and decided that to determine who was entitled to the ofllco of county clerk It would bo necessary to recount all of the votes east at the election. An objection was tiled , but it was overruled , after which bumilcs of votes were taken to the court room and the tedious work commenced , the Judge calling the TOtes and the respective lawyers keep ing the tally. Commencing with the First precinct of the First ward the vote of three precincts was counted and the result was tnojt gratifying to Mr. SucltoU , the Incumbent , as the cuunt K'avo him a clean gain ot fourteen votes that thucanvasiRrx had failed to return iu sub iiiltting tholvofllclul figures , The roeount will continue from day to day until comnlotcJ , giving away ; o only the incut , important business.

TROUBLE BETWEEN PARTNERS. Factions In a Hardware Establishment On " Into Court. The troubles which hnvo , existed among the stockholders- the' Lce-Clarke-An'drco- son Hardware companyliave about come tea a show dpwn , as.Judgo Ferguson 1ms issued an order , citing all off the Interested parties to appear In his court next Saturday , that It may bo determined whether there is cause for issuing an injunction to restrain the present ofllcers of the company from acting. In the documents which are filed in tbo ofllco of the district court , there are two talcs told , one by each of the contending factions. On January 10 the annual stockholders' mooting and election of oniccrs was held and out of the holding of that mooting arises the whole of tne trouble. H. J. Leo , E. M. Andrcescn and William M. Glass , who are asking for the restrain ing order , claim that the mooting was hold In a duo and legal manner and that Leo was elected president for the ensuing year , An- drcesen , vice president and Glass , treas urer , but , notwithstanding that , they claim that the Clarke faction is interfering with the management of the business , ouening the mail and giving orders to the employes of the concern. On the other hand the Clarke end of the fight , in answering , sets up the claim that the mooting was hold as urovidod by law and that II. T. Clarke was elected president , 11. D. Leo , vice president and Henry P. Clarke , secretary and treasurer. The further claim is made by the Clarke faction that after the regular election was over the Leo faction , contrary to law , held another election , at which another sot of ofllccrs was elected.

W. l-\ Cody was In the city for a few hours yesterday afternoon on his way tc Duluth , whore ho has Interests that demand his personal attention. Colonel Cody Is looking hotter than ho hat for years and say.s ho Is getting youngct every tiny. Shifo his remarkable success with bis show at the World's fair ho lias been malting a number of Investments hi various enterprises and is now a very busy man. Ho is Interested In the manufacture of a TOiToo substitute , for which ho has a fac tory at Lancaster and Is now going to open another at Duluth. "I see that some follow out nt Kearney has been trying to prove that I was never elected to the legislature , " said Colonel Cody. "Of course Ills talk can do mo no in jury , but I have taken the pains to secure the proofs of my claims and will present them when the proper time COUIPS. There .was no occasion for any such enterprise on the part of the Kearney Individual , but I suppose a public man has to expect that sort of a thing. " " 1'erhaps ho is Just giving you a taste of what you may expect when you run for gov ernor , " suggested the reporter. "All that talk has boon absolutely without any authority on uiy part. 1 am not a can didate for any public olllce and would not be under any eiivumstanecs. My show busi ness has grown to oo such a bk ; affair and matters arc coming my way , and I could not alTord to do anything bin stay bv my rntor- prises. I wtmld rattier go out In tbo Hlg Horn mountains and lose myself than to run for any ofllco. ' I have just born up in Wyoming at Sheri dan , and it would not ho a bad place' for a man to lose : ; lmsclf , either. 1 was through that country with Crook in 70. when a man had to go with an nriny. It was something of a sin prise to inuTo rldo Into a bustling little city on a vesllbuled train and llnd one of the busIcsE""and most , thriving places in the west. I have boon all ever the world , but I don't know of a place la this country , or the old , that 1 would rather live In than up in that country. H is a wonderful coun try , with untold mineral wealth , backed up. by a farming country that cannot be ex celled , "I bavo been unfortunate of late years , in that I have never bacu ublo to sco any of this great western country except in the winter. Oti my North Platte ranch I have any < iuantity of fruit , but I have never seen the trees in bloomas I have been away with my show every summer since I located the ranch. " Colonel Cody has recently made heavy investments in Sheridan and has a plan for the establishment of a stage line from Sheridan to the Yellowstone park. ' 'Such a line , " ho said , in speaking of the enter prise , "would give tourists 'MO miles of a rldo through such a country as can bo seen no place else in this world of ours.
