THE OlSrAHA DAILY BEE : THURSDAY , 3SIAY 18 , 1899. RERR ASRS FOR NEW TRIAL His Motion ii Based on Thirty-Six Allegations , CLAIM OF NEW EVIDENCE IS SET FORTH Tnkrn to n Dramatic Declaration of ( Jrncrnl C'O TII and Mlnconclnct nt a Juror in Aliened. Through his attorneys John Kcrr , con victed of murder in the second degree for killing his father-in-law , John Held , with n shotgun at Valley last July , has asked that the verdict bo Bet aside and a new trial erantivl. The motion Is based on thlrty- ftlx allegations , Including the usual statu tory grounds , nnd also referring to several circumstances of the trial that are declared to have beeu prejudicial to the Interests of the defendant. Three of these consist of alleged Improprieties on the part of the prosecuting attorneys. It Is contended that Kerr wo * prevented from having a fair trial because Deputy County Attorney Dunn ex plained to the Jury In his argument that the fltato wag un blo to put the wlfo of the defendant on the stand. Exception Is also taken to the dramatic declaration of General Cowln that Kcrr was trying to save his own nkln by crucifying the reputation of his nlfo nnd to the f refluent suggestions made l > y Con In that Mrs. Kerr was compelled to work ns n kitchen servant. The motion nlso alleges that now evidence him been discovered that was not avall- nblo during the previous trial and declares that the court erred In each of its In structions to the jury. The last contention Is that Kerr did not have n fair trial be cause ono of the Jurors declared that ho know Kcrr was guilty after ho had been passed for cause. This claim of evidence of unfairness was called to the attention of the court as soon as it was ascertained by the defense , but the Juror was permitted to aervo through the case. Error Is nlso al leged In permitting the county attorney to call witnesses whoso names had not been endorsed on the Information previous to the day of the trial. Tom Murray AVnutu nn Itijum'tloit , Judge Dlcliinson Is hearing the argument on the application of Tom Murray for an In junction to prevent the Mutual Benefit Life Insurance company from taking posHCsoloii of the .Murray hotel under foreclosure pro ceedings. When the decree of foreclosure was granted there was an agreement that If Murray could dispose of the property lor nn amount that would permit him to liquidate the Judgment before CHay 1 the Judgment would remain as a mortgage and the Insur ance company would not take poescsilon of the premises. Murray represents that ho has paid the creditors about $0,000 on this ac count and that ho Is therefore entitled to the bcncQt of the stipulation. Krnost Ilao Convicted. The trial of Ernest Rae for shooting with Intent to klU resulted In his conviction. The ( shooting occurred ns the result of a row in an N street aaloon in South Omaha last February. iRao Is sajd to have fired a shot at Rudlo Baler , but he Insists that ho only flrefl his revolver Into the elde- walk. No ono was Injured nnd there has heen nn apparent reluctancy on the part of oomo of the prosecuting witnesses to appear. The case woe scheduled lost term , but Baler did not respond to a summons nnd was finally brought up for contempt. Ho escaped by the showing that the deputy sheriff had inadvertently handed him the wrong sum- mono. IHtnor Matters In Conrt. In the case of Peter Grless against A. B. McContrle Judge Shlras of the United States court has overruled a motion to remand to Clay county , where the action woa originally brought. James Ryan entered a pica of guilty to a charge of burglary In criminal court yester day afternoon and was sentenced to one and one-half years in the penitentiary. Ryan broke Into a saloon nnd got away wdth a small amount of liquor and cigars. In Judge Mungor's court the Jury has re turned a verdict for the defendant In the case of the Western Assurance company against C. S. Polk. The case came from Cass county. The plaintiff sued the defendant , alleging malpractice In the matter of set tling nn Insurance claim. James Yellowback , Henry Hardin nnd David Blackhawk , Omaha Indians charged with Eolllng liquor upon the reservation , have boon brought In by Deputy Marshal Allen , If unable to furnish bonds , they will Ilo In the county jail until next month , when their cases will bo called foi trial. The criminal court is now hearing the cvl- donco against Albert Smith , who is charged with Tarceny as bailee. Smith borrowed a horse from Thomas Casey whllo both men wcro patronizing a saloon and ho neglected to return the property. It is charged that ho took the rig to South Omaha nnd sold it for $12. Mary A. Nichols has been appointed guardian of Madeline A. Nichols in order'to permit of a settlement of n damage suit against Tom Murray that Is now pending. It was asserted that ono of Murray's wagons ran over the llttlo girl and her father sued Murray for damages. The case will now be Betted for J100. The case of Fairbanks , Morse & Co. against the vlllago of Bancroft Is on trial before a Jury in Judge plunger's court. Plaintiffs eeek to recover the sum of $3,000 , alleging that this sura Is duo on n contract for the putting In of n water system In the town. The defendant charges that the system was not put in In accordance with the contract nnd the service guaranteed Is not furnished. The Enoch Morgan Sons' company of Now York have brought suit In United States court against John J. Glbanu of this city , asking for nn Injunction to prevent him from manufacturing a cleaning and washing preparation which , It Is alleged , is an In fringement. The plaintiff alleges that Gib- Bon's preparation Is Injuring Us trade and that ho should bo stopped from selling ns uell us from manufncturlnlg. MRS. STARR'S TALE OF WOE Four * Hint Her IliiHlinnil linn Ue- ncrled Her mill fiiiim Avrny > vlh Another AVomiiii , The most pitiful case the police have re cently been called upon to deal with came * o their attention Wednesday afternoon , when Mrs. John Starr drove up in front of the station and requested protection from her husband who , as she claimed and feared , Intended to steal their children from her. The outfit of Mrs. Starr was apparently a runmant of sonic- bone yard , The horses fould hardly draw one foot after the other , they -were EO thin nnd worn , The covered spring wagon was almost ft wreck and ono momentarily expected to ace It drop to jiloccs. On the seat beside Mrs. Starr sat two chubby , bright looking little children , the elder being U yean of age , in the back part aboy - 3 .mouths old was sleeping peace fully , unawnro of the troubles which were nssalllng the mother's peace of mind , Mrs. Starr eald she and her husband bad driven in from Wcstcott , Custer county , whore her husband worked all last winter , They crossed into Iowa end spent a few days near Chariton. When near Counci ! Bluffs on tboir return to Nebraska he led lier and took a train for Omaha to get his mall. He told her he might meet her hero -but she was not sure. Ho gave her the handsome sum of 25 cents , whllo ho took their last dollar and came to Omaha. She drove the Intervening thirty miles and ar rived here this morning , She learned tha lie had gogtten some letters from the poat- ofllco , and as bho could ilnd no trace of him eba Biipvposcd ho had deserted her for an other woman with whom he has been cor- tesfoatlog. She said she did not care for hat If he left her the children , and the rent tears dropped from her eyes ns she ooked at them lovingly. She thought If 10 had deserted her she would go to her larents In Leads , Ore. She was sure she ould manage Eomo way to get there. When asked how much money she had she aid none except the 25 cents her husband hnd left her. The few bystanders is ho had Istened to her story an she related It to ho reporters were touched and a small col- cctlon wan taken up and given her.

It Is onFy of late that they have recovered from H tandem bicycle ride in Boston which ended dlnastiously because of their physlcliil dis parity Billy was riding behind and his wife was steering. As they shot do\\n a steep hill the helmsman's feet slipped from the pedals and She shouted to Billy to stop the wheel. This Billy tried to do , but the resurt was that his pedals nearly throw him off at every revolution. The people at the foot of the hill could not see that there were two people on the bicycle until it ( sud denly swerved from the path and ran into a stone wall at the side. Than Billy put in his appearance over the shoufdors of Mrs. Clifford nnd struck the stone wall. Both were severely hurt and bore evidences of their rough experience for a long time aft erwards.
