8 THE OMAHA DAILY FKTDAY , JUNE 11 , 1807. j POLICE ARE ALL AT SEA N0\\ \ \ Two Daja Spent in Fruitless Search fo Tiocloman's Murderers. STILL PURSUING PARTIES OF FLEEING MEr nvlilonoe Mint tlio Simpcctd Uml ArrcMl Hint n Iltiiul In KlllltiK f Tlcilviiiaii anilVoiiiulliiK t Clover. , , Will the police , wllh the comparatlvel : scanty evidence they have now In their pos session , bo able to forge ft chain of clrcum etnnce.n suinclcntly pceltlvc to apprehend tin burglaro who killed I'aliol Conductor Tiede man and phot 1'ollco Officer Glove Wednesday morning and sufficiently Strom to drive home their guilt. If apprehended ? The question Is now forty-eight bourn ol end the result of the work of the authorities In that length ot time ban been decidedly un natlsfactory. The police arc at sen. Tin unsatisfactory condition of the case Is showi liy the fact that thcro arc now fight BUS pcctn under arrest and several more an being pursued. Thcro were three ot tin murderers. Two theories were advanced Wcdncadi ; nnd arc still being held. One Is that Ihi murderers are the three men who nre ap parcntly fleeing northward. This theory li held by Chief of Police Slgwart and by Cap tain Maze , but ls riot considered of mucl worth by the- men who have been actlvelj worl.lng on the case. The evidence Is de cidedly unsatisfactory. The other theory It that the crime was committed by three ol llvo men , one of whom is at largo and U being pursued. The other four nro undci ariest. They are August Kisiner , Josepl Keslncr , Louis Kcstncr und Ralph Messer Bchmldt. Robert lirulon , who has beet taken Into custody a number of times as r criminal , Is nl o tinder nrrmt us a suspect but thcro Is nothing against him PO far. Nc ovldcnco exists against Mcsfcrschmldt either , but ho was arrested on Olllccr Tledeman't antc-mortem statement. EVIDENCE AGAINST THR KBSTNBRS. The evidence against the kcstners , who arc In Jail , U purely circumstantial. A portion of It Is found In the fact that the gunnycacke found In the saloon arc of the same kind that were found In the Kcstncr stable when the latter was searched yesterday. Three or four pieces of rope and cord found on the saloon sacks are similar to cells ot rape and cord dug up In the fame stable. The finding of tha wet coats , cap and sweater ot the Kest- ncrs on the dry walls of the barn Is another point of evidence. The police figure that these clothes were on the backs of the Kest- ncrs when the latter were engaged In the burglary , If they wore so engaged. The pris oners say they got wet when they cared for their horses early Wednesday morning nnd when It was still raining. Then there are the wagon wheels along Emmett strcel from the direction of the scene of tht tragedy nnd leading over the sidewalk lute the stable. These wheel marks are like those discovered In the rear ot the saloon after the occurrence of the crime. The Kcstners were asked about the absence of their shotgun. One said they disposed ol It two years ago. Another said It bad not been , on the premises for a year. All three Htatt-d that no weapons had been kept In the house for a year. The police allege that they can disprove these statements and can thow that revolvers and guns were seen In the house In the last three months. Detectives who have searched the place for stolen prop erty maintain that they always found a gun on the wall. The Kcstners were put In Uie Hwcat box yesterday. They divulged nothing of a fwsptclous.nature , They were very non- " ' "cbmmlitair particularly , 'thQ father , Joseph. Ho had lived In the northwestern part of Omalia for eevcjiteen years"but stated that ho did not know the names ot the streets nnd additions -hli-'resldenbe. . The old man stated that whllo the police were lookIng - Ing for them he and his son wcro In their buggy In the country , Just south of Walnut Hill. The son eays they went to the state fair grounds. I THEORY OF THE POLICE. The evidence heretofore detailed Is all that the police have Implicating the Kcstners. As mentioned before , however , Chief ot Po lice Slgwart and Captain Haze have faith in the theory that the murderers arc the msn who were seen going northward In the morn ing. This theory IB In mere unsatlafactory shape than the other. - The pursuers came upon a camping outfit twelve miles northwest of Teknmah. It was Sn charge of three men , who were found cooking breakfast. They were at once ar rested. One of the men Is known in this city as "Three-fingered Jack. " The other two men were unknown. The men wore taken to Tckamah , where they succeeded In proving their Innocence. They were then released. . Chief of Police Slgwart said yesterday that ttn officers had not struck the right outfit. This appears to bo a fact , for In formation from Tekamah Is to the effect that the pursuing olflcers have set out to hunt for another rig that is supposed to have passed through from Omaha. There Is trouble In locating the party , as reports pf .the number composing It differ. Some people nay It consisted of three men. Others say thtre are two men , and still others affirm that there Is a woman In the party. OFF T3IE SCBNT AGAIN. Word was received early yesterday afternoon from the searching party to the north that all trace of the outfit they were after 1ms been lost. The party Is at present nt Craig and appears to bo.making that town Its headquarters. A band of about twenty , nen have been gotten together and divided Into several squads , and are searching the surrounding country for the suspected men. The police In the city are searching the country west of the Rest tier premises in the effort to find some shotguns belonging to the Kcstncrs. The authorities believe- that the trip of the two Kcstners from homo Wednes day forenoon was for the purpose of conceal ing the wcajKins somewhere. In another search of the premises Wednesday night Jinlf of a shotgun and a hulf of n rlflo was found In the house. Information has been received by the police that four men armed with shotguns tried to hold up a saloon keeper of Benson on last Tuesday. Detectives Dcmpsey am ? Sheep have been Bent to Unison to Investigate the story. Wednesday the police gave It out that the fleeing men were Hurt Cramer nnd CharlcE Davis. If these ore the parties the pur suers ultimately capture , there Is no doubl but that they hove been following a falm clew. This Is the conclusion that must bo reached as a result of an Investigation made yesterday by Detectives Dcmpaey and bhoop. These detectives learned yester day that Hurt Crumi-r and Charles Davis illd leave the city at 7 o'clock Wcdncs- day morning , They rode In a canvas-toppe-d wagon , ilra\fn by a team. The other Cramer , Uavld , the father , was not In the party , .be- causa ho left the day bcforo for Logan , la , If there was a third man Been In the wagon north nf Florence It was norne one the two boys picked up. The Cramers live at 3230 hmmett street , and bear a good reputation.

Building Inspector Butler has decided to maintain a. more 'rigid enforcement of the Imlldlng ordinance than has heretofore been the custom. It has become customary for many people who contemplate small buildings nnd Im- proverm-nts to go ahead with the work with out filing a plan with the Inspector of build ings , as required by law. In some cased Ihcy come In and secure n permit after the work is nearly done , and too late to correct any details in which It docs not comply with the oidlnance , and in others they neglect to apply for ony permit at all. II ms been Impossible for the building Inspcc- : or to personally look up all these cases , and Inspector Butler now proposes to Invoke the aid of the police department to put a stop to the practice. Chief of Police Slgwnrt has agreed to instruct the patrolmen to look out Tor violations of the building ordinance on : helr beats , and with their assistance It will bocoinc nearly impossible for anyone to crccc a building until the ordinance hoe been com plied with.
