In the court of Justice of the I'eico Cock-
rcll Friday afternoon there was decided
A case that was watched with considerable
Interest by the railroad companies. It wan
A tent case to see whether the fcncca the
railroads have recently been erecting along
Ihelr lines were to Htand or were to bo cut
through at will by persons who had long
l > con used to crossing the tracks wherever
they wished. The decision of the case was
Jn favor of the maintenance of the fences ,
and It cost Prank Daldwln $20 to nnd out
that ho could not cut down the fcnco
along the line of the Union Pacific.
For years the Omaha railroads have been
confronted with numerous dim&go suits on
account of Injury to persona who were walk
ing or croaalng the tracks. This has been
especially true along the line ot the Union
rnclflc belwen the union depot and South
Omaha. During the last year a great num-
bcr of accidents Jiavo occurred on this line.
Children playing on the tracks , children and
other people crosilng the tracks , coal plckera
Along the , tracks and stock that had wandered
on the tracks have been run down and
cither killed or injured. The damage suits
piled up so fast that the management of
the Union Pacific decided the best thing to ,
do was to enclose the tracks ot the company
between the two cities. Accordingly the
work of building a fcnco of heavy check
.tvlro along each side ot the track waa begun ,
and It IIBH now been nearly completed.
The constiuctlon ot this fence , however ,
interrupted the transit of pedestrians who
had beerv used to crossing the Union 1'aclflo
tracks wherever they wanted to ever since
they lived within the Vicinity of the rail
road. They did not take kindly to the ob
struction , and In many places unceremoni
ously cut It down. As faat as the builders
of the fence would complete their worl- dur
ing the day time , the people , used IcTregaru- '
Jngtha track as a thoroughfare , would cut
it down at night. The railroad company de
cided the best thing to do was to catch one
ot the fence-chopper * at work and make a
test caao. A watch was set , and the other
night Frank Baldwin was caught. He was
arraigned before Justice ot the Peace Cocki
roll 'Friday afternoon. Haldwln's attorney
maintained that the people had alwa > s been
used to crossing the tracks wherever they
pleased and that the railroad company had
no right to Interfere with their use of the
roadway as a thoroughfare. The Union Pa
cific contended that It had wily adopted meas
ures looking toward the protection of llfo
and limb. The Justice sided with the rail
road company , and fined the defendant $30
nnd costs. Armed with this precedent , the
railroad company Is now on Its guard against
future attempts to teir down Its fence.

Union Pacific ofllclals derived considerable
satlsfaptlon yesterday from The Bee's
special dispatch , announcing the capture of
P. J. Wagoner , alias "Dig Mike , " \Vheaton ,
Kan. Ho escaped from the jail at Fremont
about a fortnight ago , and over sluco then the
railroaders have trembled with alarm for
fear that ho might again organize a gang'of
highwaymen ; > nd renew his depredations
long ! the Union P.aclfic and the Missouri
I'ttdflo railroads.
"Big Mlko" "was the leader of as bad a
'gang as h-ts inliirfleJ tile Xeb'fujital 'rflraiot *
In recent years. He Is the man who shot
and nearly killed the night operator of the
Union Pacific ot North Uend In May of this
year. There were five members ot "His
Mike's" gang , and all are now under artrst.
Two are serving time In the state peni
tentiary nt Lincoln , two are under arrest at
Fairmont , Nob. , awaiting trial , nnd "Big
Mlko" the doughty leader , has just been
captured after < a bold , but unsuccessful break
The two'men at the state penitentiary are
Frank Brown nnd Jim Carroll. They weto
convicted last August of robbing a small
bank at BriulshJW , although the railway offi
cials say tnuv they could have lust us easily
been sent up for numerous rooberlcs of rail
way stations. The two who are awaiting
trial at Fairmont nro Jim Leonard , alias
"Denver Fronchy , " and John Hlgley , alias
Cllnc. They will bo triad for robbing the
bank at Ohlowa , Neb. The evidence against
them Is said to be strong , and both will
probably. . Join their comrades near Lincoln.
A promliwnt railroad man said yester
day that the depredations of "Hlg Mike's"
gang along both the Union Pacific and the
. - Missouri Pacific railroads during the last
years had been most extensive , and the
/ successful breaking up of thu gang was an
important event with Nebraska railroads.
The work ; of the gang from 1S04 to 1897 was
In looting railway stations remotely located
and in robbing banks In small
towns. Although none of their rob-
Iberles were largo , the aggregate amounts
secured from their numerous attacks made
their business a most profitable one. Kauh
Of the 'five is described as a bard character )
cs ready to shoot as to rob. After their visits
they always took to the country , and for a
long time succeeded In eluding the search
of the best railroad detectives. "Dig Mike"
was especially vlulous. When drinking he
was even reckless , and he probably would
never have been caught had ho not been
foolhardy through drink. He has already
served one term In the state penitentiary ,
nnd Is fairly along toward another. His first
term was for robbing the Union Pacific sta
tion at Yntan , Nob. In addition to having
ehot the night operator at North Mend , Neb. ,
last May , he has a record of having wounded
elx other employes of the "Overland Route. "

such an outcome Is most likely. "

Pacific system. The read was built In 1SS1

lias never been operated , and the suit Is In
stigated by persons through whose property
the right of way runs , In order that they
may legally recover the land.

will be taken In regard to the policies of the
old company which have fallen duo. If It
had not been for the attempt of the old
policy holders to force collection' at a. time

Delia Davis tind Henry C. Hobble , nho live

ty-scvenlh streets , have begun suit against
the city to recover $1,000 , which they allege
Is the amount of damage their property sus
tained from n heavy rain on July 9. They
expect to show that up to a couple of years
HBO rain could fall as hard as It pleased nnd
their property could not be damaged because
n couple of KUllcys carried oft the wntcr.
About a couple of years ngo , however , these
gulloys were filled up by the city nnd a
sewer was put in to carry off the waste
water.
It Is maintained that the catch basin Is so
small that It will not permit all the water to
flow Into U and , that on account of this con
dition of affairs their houses were filled with
water and mud.
Hull Ovrr llollii Property.
The Philadelphia Mortgngo nnd Loan com
pany holds the city responsible for a ( law In
its title to Henry iBolln's property In Kountzo
Place , which It secured n short time ago
under foreclosure proceedings. In April ,
1S9. , it secured n ? 5,000 mortgage on the
propcity. It is allegoi that at that time
the city records showed 'that there were no
tax claims against the premises. It Is
charged thct since the time the moriG'igo wns
placed the entries In the records showing the
payment ot taxes had been erased and In
their places have been substituted others
which Indicate that the taxes are still stand
ing against the property. As the mortgage
was placed because the city records indicated
that there were no tax claims ngnlnst the
property the company thinks the city ought
to glvo It $ .r)00 to pay the taxes and to cover
the attorney's fees In the case.
