The most nuggcstlvo Incident of this more
suggestive proceeding was. the testimony o
Chief of Police Slgwart. The police hm
made official reports concerning the numbei
of disorderly resorts to the board ; among
these was the Wright place. Mr. Stewart
was asked to verify these ? reports under
oath , but they were ruled out as Improper
Your board claimed to have already dis
missed them as against Wright , while find
ing them sufficient to refuse the license to
other resorts of exactly the same character
which had made themselves ofleuslvo po
Utlcnlly. Chief Slgwart then and there de
clared under oath that Wright kept an or
derly place of business. What the chief
would consider a disorderly placeof busi
ness was not divulged on this occasion.
My third protest against Thomas Foley
had , as already stated , been Indefinitely post
poned because , as alleged , Folcy had not
pild In his $1,000. It was finally set for
hearing a weelTago Monday morning. When
I appeared before the board at the proper
hour , I was Informed that the board couli
not talt9 up the. case until afternoon of the
83mo day. My failure 'to appear before the
board In the afternoon , because of urgent
business that required my presence eliowhare
was followed by the summary dismissal ol
( ho , protest and the polite request that 1
submit further Information en gambling
houses and lawless resorts at a future t'me.
This action of your very honorable boarO
was hailed with approval by your official
organ ? which pointed me out as a scoundrel ,
who was trying to hold up gentlemen who
were engaged In a respectable calling.
The inference was. of course , that I had no
proof whatever to sustain the complaints.
Now It must have been known as nell to
your chief of police , If not to your seven
detectives , as It Is to myself , that Tom
Folcy's place Is a gambling resart , where a
great many victims have been plucked since
your advent as police commissioners. In
one Instance , on Sunday night , November
3 a party balling from western Nebraska , Is
reputed as having lost { 020 before ho qujt
tbo game. ,0n Monday , November 18 , a big
game was played at the sama resort , at
which an army offlcer , whoso name I will
not divulge , lost $100. On Sunday ove-nlng ,
December 29 , Foloy's resort was the scene
of a flght , which Is known to nearly every
body among the sporting fraternity. This
fact Is verified by an , allldavlt In my posses
sion , of which the following Is a copy , omit
ting only tbo author's name for prudential
reasons.
State of Nebraska , Douglni county , ss.
* being first duly sworn deposes and
says that ho Is u resident of Omaha , Ne
braska ; that on Sunday evening , December ,
29 , 1R95 , between the hours of 5 and C
o'clock p. m. he was In Thomas Folcy's
snloQM at 1412 Douglas street , Omaha , Ne
braska , and there were pro unt Harry
Hyiuls , William Carter , Charles Hosiers and
Walter. Jlubbard , that all of said parties had
been drliiklnc nnd were under tlio Influence
of liquor ; tluit said Harry Ilynds had a
rough and tumble fight with Thomas Fnlcy
rt said tlmo and that raid Foley sold In
toxicating liquors during the whole of said
day , and has sold Intoxicating liquors on
Bundays and after 12 o'clpck at night to
Hunt's knowledge for bevcral years.

much more flagrant. Ono Instance will

In this city some weeks ago by the assault

g SOUTH OMAHA NEWSg
The topic of conversation nt the yards Is
the discriminating freight rates on live stock
to South Omaha nnd the terminal charge of
$1.50 a car. January 1 the railroad com
panies established a new system. Instead of
charging so much per standard car , with 7
per cent added for thirty-four-foot cars and
10 per cent for thirty-six-foot cars , as has
been done heretofore , each shipment Is
weighed Mid the transportation 'charge bawd
on the actual weight .of the commodity
hauled. The railroad companies stated this
arrangement would not advance1 the rates ,
l > ut figures contradict this statement. An Ad
vance cf $1 to $10 per car can be shown from
many stations In Nebraska , and this does not
Include the terminal charge. It Is claimed
that this chaigo Is not a new source of
revenue for the stock yards company. The
titock yards company has always paid $1 per
car for switching nnd GO cents a car for un
loading or loading live stock , but this ex
pense up to tli a 1st of January was absorb3d
by the railroads ; now It Is added to the
expense bill and charged to the shipper. The
exchange has appointed a committee to confer
with the railroads and secure If possible a
readjustment ot the rates.

IlAt'IDS , la. , Jan. 15. ( Special. )
The last chapter In one of the most remark
able cases In the- annals of the state will bo
enacted In the district court of this county
at the present term , when Mrs. Thomaa D.
Uurko will bo tried for perjury , the cato
having been brought hero from Iowa county
01 a change of venue. Mrs. * Uurko Is tha
woman who said she was the foster mother
of tko lost Hay Elliott , and the perjury Is
said to have been committed' during the
habeas corpus proceedings In the courts of
Irwa county , whereby Mrs. IJurke sought to
gain pomssian of the 'child.
Never before has n county been so stirred
up as has Iowa county over these cases
arising out of the disappearance of little
Hay Elliott. The bitterness existing In
Jones county for years over what was known
as the "Jones county calf base" has bc n
far exceeded In Iowa county , and the dis
sensions which have sprung up have In
fluenced school and church affairs and oven
business matters and elections. People who
have been friends for years became es
tranged , and the bitterness was ea great
that bloodshed wag narrowly averted on
numerous occasions. Even now , after every
thing has apparently assumed a normal con
dition , when strangers go to the town of
Marengo and make any Inquiries about the
Hay Elliott cases the person Interrogated
will look wild and make sure no ono of his
townsmen Is * within hearing before ho will
venture to say a' word , and then what ho
tells will bo told In whispers.
REVIEW OF THE CASE.
That which brought 'rtbout this' condition
of affairs Is well known to every lowan.
One May day about three years ago Hay ,
the little son. of Mi\andMrs. George Elliott ,
poor but honest people of Marengo , disap
peared. The town and surrounding country
were searched , but the lad could not be
found. It was supposed ho had been stolen
by gypsies , and , although a big reward was
offered for his recovery nnd return to his
parents , not the slightest traca of him could
bo found and had the earth opened up and
swallowed him1 he could not have been more
completely lost.
A little over il year after'the boy's dis
appearance , and whllp a camp meeting was
In prcgroio ncsr AVaterlbo , an' elderly woman
ono day came upon.the ground , apd going to
the tent of a lady who lives at Waterloo ,
Introduced horpqlf and told her she had
learned she desired to aclont a boy. She
had a Ilttlo' fellow "With her , " "who she said
was an orphan and who she would leave
with her for 'a week , when she would again
call , and If satisfactory she would make
arrangements to give the boy to her. She
did not return at the end of the week , and
the lady with whom she had left the boy
came to the conclusion she had found the
loyt Hay Elliott. She maae her belief known
and the people of Marengo were notified.
The boy waa taken to Marengo , where ho
was dcclarcl to bo the lost chold. Excite
ment ran high. Mass meetings were held
In the public square , bonfires were built ,
speeches made and prayers offered and word
wont lo the outside world that the long lost
boy bad been found.
ANOTHER PHASE DEVELOPS.
In a few days letters arrived from Ohio
from Mr. nnd Mrs. Thomas D. Durke. They
said that the boy waa their foster son ( nnd
not Hay Elliott. They said the boy was
ono wltorniMrs. Burke's mother had adopted
from the Jluscatlno county poor farm and
afterward given to them. That while on a.
visit to Jier mother at Independence they
had bad a < quarrel and the child was taken ,
from Mrs. Burke. Mrs.L Burke , suppling
hop mother would scon forget and forgive'
and return the boy to her , left former home
In Ohio with no misgivings ; but Instead she
had taken the child to Waterloo and gave
him to the lady who had Imagined him to
bo the lost Ray Elllctt ,
The people of Marenso could not believe
tli033 stories and when Mr. Burke arrived
at Marougo shortly to regain' possession of
tho. boy he was arrested on a warrant
charging hjin with abduction , bound over
: o the grand Jury and thrown Into jail.
Feeling ran high and threats of lynching
Burke were mado. Then Mrs. Burke began
habeas corpus proceedings ' to regain pos
session of the boy. , Tne hearing of these
cases was 'attended" by the most' Intense
feeling , throats even balng made to lynch
the counsel for the Burkes. The result was
a partial victory for tnp'Elllotts. The court
did not [ pass upon the Identity of the child ,
} Ut declared him to bb a ward of the court ,
and turned him over to tho'.Elliott family
under the evidence , and ! for the further rea
son Chat ho-bollevcd It would be > a bettor
home for him than any that could bo fur
nished by the Burkes , -whom he did not con-
jlder Bultab'.o pscple to have custody of him.
MRS. BUHKE'S CRIME.
The present case-against Mrs. Burke grows
ut of the bitterness engendered at this trial ,
ho charge against her' being' based' on al-
egcd false statements made by her under
oath In tbo legal fight for the boy. It Is
leld , however , that the falsa statements
nade by Mrs. Burke affected a trivial mat
er In her own personal history only , and
tad no real bearing on the case , and that
here la a question as to'tho commission of
icrjury In making them , when thd strict
egal definition of that term Is carefully re-
; arded. Since the close of these-trials the
ecllng in Marengo and Iowa county has sub-
Ided , and the people-are "more1 nearly In
heir right minds than they have been for
ears. Buforo the case was transferred to
his county a petition flgned by all the
aunty officers , the members of { he Board of
Supervisors and seventy of the leading busi
ness men of Marengo was presented to Judge
Wade , urging the dismissal of the case on
the ground that It was very uncertain
whether a conVlctldn could Tie secured ; that
ho people of Iowa , county desired
o be spared the expense of the
rial , being content to lot the mat
er go. Since the- case has been trans
ferred to this county. County Attorney
Jrlmni has received a petition signed by
bout fifty of the leading women of Ma-
engo , asking- , that the. case be dismissed
n the ground that Mrs. Burke has already
ad trouble enough ; that she has been more
Inncd against than sinning ; that her family
reds her , and that the law of Christ * Impels
orglveneas of sins rather than , their punlsh-
i&nt.
MRS. BURKE AS A PRISONER.
Since the Indictment of Mrs. Burke she
as been out on ball , yet at the same time
othlng less than a prisoner , her bondsmen
equlrlng that he remain with a couple of
rominent ladles of Marongo. This the lias
ono , and has conducted herself In such a
wnner as to win the respect and esteem of
i.iny of those who formerly looked upon her
s a creature to bo shunned and whose place
was behind penitentiary walls. It Is be-
cved that her trial In this county will re-
ult In her acquittal , and that tbo Ray El-
ott cases will bo at an end.
Upon reliable Information It Is learned
hat the lad about whom there has been BO
much trouble- has not the homo that many
eoplo have been led to believe , The Elliotts
re very poor people ; Elliott has been a very
lard drinker , if he Is not yet. Their homo
s a most humble one , meagerly furnished ,
nd the boy Is allowed to play about the
trects of Marengo , with dirty face , unkempt
air , thinly clad and with practically no
are whatever. The general , aspect of , tbs
omo Is one of neglect and Indifference , The
lilld bears not the slightest resemblance to
ho Elliotts , and the teellng Is growing that
o la not their tun. Under these clrdum-
tancea It Is believed that the court will see
t before long to take the boy from these
eople and place him where ho will have bet
ter care and attention.

fenw weroI1iciVd ( In Judge Gordon's cour
> cstorday ftftfjnoon. | After considerable
wrangling botncon the- attorneys on the sub
ject of court -etiquette , the points brought
out in the tvldjfico of the prel'mlnary exam-
( nation wer | ' riiflowed. Mr. Andrews
ned his flame.defense of Coulter along the
line that tAcr&iWl been no evidence Introduced
. , , ' .
duced to shdti't'fiit ho was gu Hy of arty de
falcation , no dwelt efpcclilly upon that portion
tion of the JcsUmony ct the stato's wltnetMes
given on cjM-cJxamlnatlon , In which they
elated that Nairn bad as free an access to
every book and drawer In the office at Coul
ter. From this he argued that Bolln , as
principal In the office , wa the one upon
whom the responsibility tor the shortage
cught to have bcon placed. Uefplte this ,
however , lie slid thit Coulter had been
thrown In jail ; while Bolln had been allowed
his liberty.
In answer to the proposlt'on that Coulter
must have committed an ombcrzlemont when
he signed checks and drew on them and did
not make a record of Iho transaction , Attor
ney Andrews claimed that Coulter , according
to the testimony cf the defense , had put hl
signature to the checks and had them cashed
under Instructions from his chef. !
Assistant County Attorney Day also went
Into detail In his argument , summing up the
weight of the entire testimony which the
state had Introduced. Ho held that the evi
dence showed that Coulter had at least a
knowledge that Bolln was embezzling money ,
and the presumption was that ho had a hand
In It himself. Ho ridiculed the Idea that
Coulter would have turned money over to
Bolln undci tha tatter's Instruction without
making some sort of entry on the books , If
he was Innocent.
At the conclusion of the arguments Judge
Gordon stated that ho would take the case
, undcr advisement and make known his de
cision tcday at 2 o'clock.

WASHINGTON , Jan. 15. Hearing In TO-
gard to the receivership of the Northern
Pacltlo railway , which began > c3terday be
fore Justice * Field , Harlan , Brewer nnd
Brown , sitting In chambers , was continued
today. Ex-Senator Spooner concluded his
argument and was followed br Mr. I'ottlt ,
who la thd direct representative of the rail
road company. Mr. Spooncr's argument
today consisted principally of the citation of
authorities favorable to the recognition of
the Jurisdiction of the Milwaukee court. He
said In conclusion that ho believed It would
be In order for the
supreme court to make a
ruling In equity which would prevent such a
complication In the future as had arisen In
this case.
Mr. Peftlt opposed the position of Messrs.
Turner and Spooner. lie denied the asser
tion that the receivers were appointed In the
midst of a panic , declaring that a month's
time was consumed In deciding whether lo
oliply lo the courts sitting In Milwaukee or
n these of Chicago and St. Paul. Ho said
the .recognition of the Milwaukee receiver
ship In the beginning was duo to the fact
that the parties who had applied for their
appointment were In possession of the read ,
and of couno turned all the property over
o them.
Mr. Pettli's argument was for the recog
nition of the Jurisdiction of tho-clrcult court
for the Washington district. Ho said that
: ils choice was controlled | n the matter by
the fact that the railroad company had more
property In that Jurisdiction than In any
other.
Mr. Choate , who appeared for the Adams
committee , representing the bondholder ? de
fended the Jurisdiction of the Milwaukee
court.
The Justices asked the several attorneys
: o prepare such orders as they might wish
, o have promulgated , to be submitted to
them at a future meeting which the Justices
would hold for consultation.

SAN FllANCISCO.-Jan. 15. The California
Hallway commission won a point today In
; ho Injunction suit now pending In the
United State ? , drcult court , by which the
Southern Paclflo company reeks to restrain
the commission from reducing the freight
atcs of the railroad. Judge McKcnna ruled
: oday that dcposlt'ons and evidence taken
jefcre the congressional commission In 1880-
1887 , when various employes of the Southern
Pacific testified to the railroad's cost and
maintenance , may be admitted In the present
irocccdlng. The depos'tions were objected to ,
jecauso the officials of the company made'
them In theli' private capacity as citizens , and
not as offlcera of the company. The court
overruled this objection , however , holding
.hat the Inquiry of the congross'onal com
mission tqok on sufficient official character to
entitle It to bo received as evidence In the
jrewnt action. The court ruled , however ,
.hat while the' depcs'tlona could bo admitted
ho report of the congressional commission
and the president's comments thereon In his
nessago to congress are barred , as being
merely conclusions of thoes by whom they
were prepared , based on testimony taken.
The decision opens the door for a great
mass of printed matter. The reading of the
depositions will occupy many days.
