' Judge Wakeley , J. C. Cowln. E. S. 81m-
oral and County Attorney Kaley were among
tha 0maha attorneys In attendance at the
Btipromo > court this morning.
The capital city police force Is kept pretty
iusy these days enforcing the mayor's law
and order regulations , and the principal work
of the court Is looking after women of loose
moral ? .
The weather today has been near theiboll-
Ing temperature and business has been almost -
most at a standstill.
In deciding a case last week Judge Tlb-
bets revealed to the attorneys of the city the
Interesting fact that the city has no mu-
nlclpal code which can bo enforced. The
judge declined to admit a certain ordinance
na evidence for the reason that in publishing
the ordinance the enacting clause , the slgna-
turos of the proper officials and the date of
passage and approval had been omitted. The
liulk of the code Is In the came fix , and
OH endless amount of confusion Is predicted
in consequence. At a meeting ot the city
council held this afternoon City Attorney
[ Abbott presented an opinion In which he
advised the compilation of a now code as
the easiest way out of the difficulty.
There ts a plethora ot politicians on the
Btreota these warm days and evenings and
nil sorts of schemes are being hatched for
the fixing of the state conventions. A very
.vigorous effort will be made by the demo-
crata to secure the state gathering ot tbe

PROSECUTION RATHER WEAK
Seventeen Wealera Discharged at Port Sidney
on Account of Insufficient Evidence.
OTHERS ARE LIKELY TO PLEAD GUILTY
Judge Dandy Addresses Klail Words to the
Trlsoncrs , and Advises Thorn to
Trast to the aioroy of
the Court.
FORT SIDNEY , Neb. , June 2G. ( Special
Telegram to The Bee. ) The seventeen Weal-
ers charged with obstructing railroad traffic
at Big Springs were discharged today , the
evidence being Insufficient to hold them.
Judge Dundy was far from being a well
man when he entered court this afternoon
to , listen to the evidence against the other
Coxeyites. All of the Wealers were present ,
and the Judge singled out quite a taw of the-
boys among them and took them In a private
room where he catechised them fully rela
tive to their antecedents and destination.
Most of them said -their reason for joining
the army was because It was the easiest
and best way to get east to their homes.
It ts probable that the court will discharge
many of the lads tomorrow.
On reassembling ot court Judge Dundy
arose from his chair and admonished the
Wealers that they yet had tlmo to change
their pleas of not guilty to one of guilty ;
that during the thirty years ot his accession
to the bench he had always tempered jus
tice with mercy , and had always taken Into
consideration the defendant's welfare where
they placed themselves in the attitude at
penitents before the court ; while he did not
want to Instruct them what to do , ho felt
It his duty , owing to his enfeebled condition ,
to warn them from the consequences of a
trial , and would give them until tomorrow
morning to consult their attorney. A mur
mur of approval passed among the Wealers ,
and a slight applause was heard. Several at
once came forward to say they appreciated
the sentiments of his honor , and would
change their pleas If all the charges were
withdrawn except that of Interfering or oc
cupying property of the Union Pacific. Col
onel Sawyer then arose and said that the
charge ol stopping United States mall and
stealing the engine had not been proven
against the defendants , and all they would
now bo called to the bar for was that ot
molesting property of the government. L.
C. Stocton then Informed the court that ho
would advise his clients to accept the recom
mendations of the court , and the probabil
ities are that all will bo untied on this
proposition.
