PLAIN CASE OF PERSECUTION
Judge Fr.ircett Sustains Injunction Against
Ehields and Othsrs.
VICTORY SCORED BY MR. R0SEWATER
Court In i:niiliutlc In Dm Itnllni;
Aacalnst the Men Who Kntrrctl
Into ;ml rio- Against
the ttilltur of The Her.
The persecution of Edward Rosewater. j
tartsd by County Attorney George W. i
Ihlelds and his deputy, I. J. Dunn, and
Miles Mitchell and P. J. King, police chief
and police Judge, respectively, of South j
umana, nas Dean stoppca ny oraer oi me
district court. Decision In favor of Mr.
Rosewater was rendered by Judge Fawcett
yesterday morning.
Some days ago Mr. Rosewater filed a peti
tion ln the district court alleging that
Shields, Dunn, Mitchell and King, for tho
purpose ot Annoying htm and preventing
him from giving proper attention to his
candidacy tor United States senator, bad
entered Into a conspiracy for filing numer- i
ous and successive complaints charging hire
with violation of the corrupt practices act
ot the state and causing his arrest and trial
on each separato Information, when the ob
Ject of vindicating any Ian- iiolated by him
might bo attained by onb arrest and cm
trial. Mr. Rosewater asked for an Injunc
tion restraining Shields and the other con
spirators from making a multiplicity of
complaints against htm on practically the
same allegations and causing his arrest and
trial on Innumerable Informations that
might bo Joined ln one action.
Xumrrous Ilrnaona Cited.
E. W. Slmeral, counsel for Mr. Rosewater,
assigned several grounds in support of the
plea for an Injunction, as follows;
First, that the corrupt practices act of
this state does not apply to candidates for
the United States senate.
Second, that when a defendant In a crim
inal prosecution waives a preliminary ex
amination the state has no right or author
ity to proceed with tho examination ot wit
nesses. Third, that section 1 of article 111 of chap
ter xrvl. relating to elections, provides only
a single penalty for a violation of any one
or all of Its provisions.
Fourth, that even If the court should find
that each violation of section 1, article 111, Is
a separate and distinct offense, they can all
be Joined ln one Information under different
counts and that It Is the duty of the state
to so Join them.
The Judge did not dcldo either ot the
first three questions raised by the peti
tioner, as the conclusion: be reached on the
fourth point made It unnecessary for him
to decide them. The court ordered tho In
junction on tho ground that even it each
violation of section 1, article lit, is con
sidered a separate and distinct offense, they
may be joined ln one information and the
state should be compelled to so Join them.
Judge FuTreett ExplHlns.
The court, after the citation ot numerous
authorities, said:
"Under tho provisions of our criminal
code and decisions of the supreme court
of our state and the state of Texas, It is
very clear that all of these various offenses
with which the plaintiff Is charged can be

Joined In one complaint, and If they can
be, It Is also clear that they should be.
Undor tho undisputed record before the
court It appears that the defendants are
about to file In the nighborhood of seventy
different complaints against tho plaintiff for
the violation of section 1, article ill, all of
the offenses being ot a like character and
covering substantially the same ground. If
the defendants are permitted to file seventy
different complaints for these offenses of a
llko character and growing out of the same
transaction, then the plaintiff may be ar
rested seventy times, brought Into pollco
court, obliged to employ counsel to repre
sent him In seventy preliminary examina
tions, and also to defend htm ln seventy
different trials In the district court, en-
tailing an enormous amount of unneces- j
Bary expense. And the mere fact that the I
defendants are willing to go to all the
trouble and labor and loss ot time Incident
to the filing of seventy different complaints I
and the trial of seventy different cases, '
when they can all be tried In one. Is con
clusive evidence that It Is done for the i
purpose of harassing and annoying tho
plaintiff.
l'iiiiecmnr-, Onerous, 0inrenlt e.
"The policy and Intention ot the law Is
to punish every person for a violation of '
any law, but It was never the policy or In-
tentlon of the law to mulct a defondant In ;
unnecessary costs. And, tn this case, If ,
'ho plaintiff has been guilty of seventy dif
ferent violations of our corrupt practices I
act, he should be vigorously prosecuted for I
every one of those violations, and, If con-'
vlcted, and they aro separate offenses, -should
be punished for each violation, but !
the simple fact that he may have violated 1
he law In seventy different Instances Is not
reason why the officers of the state should
add Co the penalty provided by the statute i
by piling upon him an unnecessary, onerous j
and oppressive amount of corns. When-.
ever It Is clear that an official may perform 1
his official duty a certain way, and by the
perrormance or u in mac way ms run
duty will be performed and no one unneces-
equity to prevent him from performing it
in some other manner which will bo
burdensome and oppressive and entail uponi
the party with whom he Is dealing un-1
necessary and burdensomo costs and
annoyances ,
I.tur In ."Not to Persecute.
"In other words, the policy of the criminal
law Is to prosecute, but never to persecute.
I fully agree with the contention of de
fendants that a court of equity will nerer
Interfere to prevent a prosecution ot a
criminal action, but It Is the duty ot a
court of equity to Interfere and prevent the
proeecutfon of a multiplicity of criminal,
actions when they can all be Joined In one.
To hold that a court of equity has not that'
rower might. In man Instances, be dls-
ici uiiiius iu luaii instances, oe as-1
rous in the cextreme. And, in this
e, if I bad the slightest doubt what-1
r as to the right of the state to'
nsiruus
cate,
ever
prosecute every one of these charges
against the plaintiff ln one Information, I
would unhesitatingly refuso to grant the
injunction, but, believing, as I do, that
the state clearly has the right to vindicate
and enforce Its laws and prosecute the
plaintiff for every offense with which the
state is now seeking to charge htm under
one complaint, I feel It to be my duty to
say that the state must take that course and
not put either the plaintiff or the county to
tho useless expense ot having seventy dif
ferent trials when Justice may be done to
all parties by one trial. The temporary
inJtBwton will be allowed as above In
dicated." 1

After much consideration the executive
committee of tho Presbyterian Theological j
seminary of Omaha has definitely settled !
upon Kountzo Place as the location ot the I
new 100,009 college building v.'blch Is to j
be erected before the fall term opens. j
The whole of the slx-acro tract on the
west side of the Twentieth street boulevard, ;
covering the two blocks, north and south, i
from Spencer to Emmett street, and one
block east and west, from Twentieth to
Twenty-first, has been purchased from
Herman Kountze for 120,000. The com-'
mltteo considers that It has Eecured the I
best slto In Omaha for the purpose. The
north side of the grounds is only one block 1
from the main entrance to the old Trans-
mlsslsstppl Exposition grounds, now being
converted Into a public park.
Convenient to the Cnri.
The college will be conveniently situated
for street cam, being about four blocks
from the Twenty-fourth street line and the
Sherman avenue line, and but little farther
from tho Twentieth and Lake streets line.
Spencer street, on the south Bide, Is paved,
and with the boulevard ln front much of
special improvement taxes will be saved.
Water and sewer, gas and electric lighting
wires are, ot cotirae. all available and, ln
addition, the property is situated ln tho
midst of a flno residence district and In
close proximity to a number of the best
suburban churches of Omaha.
Dr. M. D. LowTle, president of the semi
nary. 13 now ln the east for tho purpose
of visiting the Auburn, N. V., seminary and
others with a view to determining on the
kind ot building to be erected. He Is ex
pected to return shortly, when plans will
bo agreed upon and the work of construc
tion will be begun at tho earliest possible
dato. The building will be ot brick and
will cost In the neighborhood of 150,000. It
will front east on Twentieth street, but the
exact size of the structure has not yet
been decided upon. It Is Intended, how
ever, that it shall bo to placed that other
buildings can to added as the college grows.
Tho grounds will be laid out with walks
and trees, and every effort will b takrn
to mako the seminary plot attractive and
sightly.
Cotirn House Ornl.
Eight years ago Thomaa McDougall ot
Cincinnati and Mrs, William Thaw ot Pitts
burg purchased the old Cozzens house prop
erty at Tenth and Harney streets for US,

a serlod of ten years for the nominal sum
of U, Since then Mr. McDougall has died,
leaving a will In which he bequeaths his in
terest ln the ground to the seminary. A
few weeks ago Mrs. Thaw wrote to the ex
ecutive committee that she was willing to
deed her five-ninths Interest In the prop
erty to the seminary whenever the commit
tee would notify her that It was ready to
buy a permanent site for the college, coupled

with tho condition that all tho money de
rived from the sale of the Cozzens houso
should be used ln the erection ot tho new
building.
Since this letter was received the com
mittee has been qulcty at work soliciting
subscriptions, and through the efforts of
John C. Wharton and others the mor.ey for
tho slto has now been pledged, and further
donations toward the cost of the building
aro coming In. Tho executive committee has
already been offered 125,000 for tho old
property at the foot of Harney street, but
they regard the place, which Is situated
ln the best part of the wholesale district
of Omaha, and close to the railway tracks
and to the two principal depots, as worth
135,000. Whatever Is received from the sale
of this property will go Into tho building
fund. The committee hopes to make a sale
soon, eo that tho work of construction of the
new collcgo may not bo delayed.
Source of Contributions.
The general subscriptions have come
from a large circle of friends and the com
mittee Is especially grateful to the peoplo
ot Omaha for their liberal contributions
and the generous spirit they have mani
fested. As the result ot this there Is
every reason to hope that the new sem
inary will be completed ln time for the
opening of tho fall term and that It will be
opened entirely free from debt.
The names of the subscribers havo not
been given out. but It may bo mentioned
that Herman Kountze, who sells the site.
Is making a contribution ot 17,000 to the
building fund and that several large sub
scriptions aro among those received from
tho cast, including one of 12,500 from J.
Plerpont Morgan. Tho residents of
Kountze riace were especially liberal,
about 14,000 being received from persons liv
ing In that part of the city.
There are now five professors of tho sem
inary, which Is under the control of tho
general assembly of the Presbyterian
church. Dr. M. D. Lowrle Is the president
and Dr. Marshall ot Iowa Is president ot
the board. A class ot ntno graduated last
year and a largo attendance Is expected
during tho coming year. At the last meet
ing ot the general assembly a resolution
was passed pledging 1100,000 as an endow
ment for tho seminary end n committee Is
now nt work raising money for the endow
ment. EXHIBITS COMING RAPIDLY

CHINESE REJECT
Mote from the Court Flatly Befcies to
Execute the Decreea of Death.
CONSTERNATION AMONG DIPtOMATS
AVilllnsr to Decapitate Two and Pm-
Ibl- Three and Allow Those
Already Dead to Krmnln
In that Condition.
NEW YORK, Feb. 16. A dispatch to the
Herald trom Pekln says; A new turn tn
the peace negotiations has caused a diplo
matic earthquake among the ministers. A
brief and almost Insulting note from the
court has arrived, flatly refusing any further
executions than the two previously decreed.
Yu Hslcn, governor of Shan SI province,
will be decapitated, and Prlnco Chwang
will be allowed to commit suicide. The
note adds that possibly Chao Shu Chtao,
former minister of justice, may be Included
among those to suffer death, but the court
reserves Its decision in his case. A also
bluntly stated that no further Initiative
will be pormltted to LI Hung Chang anil
Prince Chlng, who are berated for having
failed to protest vigorously against tho de
mand of the ministers for six executions,
threo posthumous and three documentary.
The court calls this demand preposterous
and Impossible to meet, and says that It
was not contemplated when the general
agreement was signed. The Imperial gov
ernment says, In Bhort, that the powers
ask outrageously too much and cannot be
satisfied.
PEKIN, Feb. 16. A message was de
livered to the foreign ministers beforo
tho meeting this morning, from the Chinese
peace commissioners, which contained the
wording of an edict, dated yesterday, prac
tlcally rclteratlng.the recent dispatches of
the Associated Press, sentencing Prinr.
i Chlng to commit suicide, and Yu Hslcn
SI), to be executed, both ln the presence
of a high government official, ln order to
satisfy the foreigners.
Chi Shlu and HIn Cheng Yu will have
their cases Investigated by Lt Hung Chang
and Prince Chlng, whoso report the em
peror will take beforo execution Is pro
nounced. General Tung Fuh Slang is deprived of
his rank and will receive further punish
ment afterward.
Yang Nlan and Chao Su Klan ore Im
prisoned. Sentence of death Is suspended on those
culprits who are already dead, but all tbelr
honors aro canceled, also the posthumous
honors granted to their families.
Owing to tho lateness of the hour at
which the translation was made, the minis
ters did not consider the matter this morn
ing, leaving lt until Monday. But, they
scarcely consider this repetition of tho
edict a proper answer to their demands,
as It means only one head Instead ot those
demanded. Still, they think that after the
Chinese New Year, If Insistence Is made,
the reply will be as required.
The ministers have considered the plans
for a legation settlement, with fortlflco
tlons, and also the question of Indemnities.
They have decided that the Jurisdiction at
present held covered only the local losses
of citizens and that the home governments
must announce the expenses of their mili
tary expeditions.
