THE CONVENT CASE.
The convent case, which has been in
the supreme court the past four years,
has been decided. This was a case
brought by 8t. Patrick’s church against
the contractors' bondsmen, after the
building burned and the contractors re- <
fused to make gqod the loss. The case
was tried in the district court and the
church got a judgment against the
bondsmen for about $18,000. It was
taken to the supreme court on error and
the decisiou reversed, and remanded for
a new trial1. The following is the de
cision :
Gallagher et al. against St. Patrick’s
church, O’Neill. Error from Holt
county. Reversed and remanded.
Opiuion by Commissioner Ragan.
Meals and McVea, contractors, entered
into a writing with St. Patrick** church,
in and by which they agreed to furnish
labor and material and construct tor
said church a certain building. The
contract provided: (a) That the build
ing should be completed by the 81st of
December, 1890; (b) that if the building
should not be completed by that time
tbe contractors should forfeit to the
church tbe sum of $10 for each day that
tbe building remained unfinished there
after: (c) that if the contractors should
neglect or refuse to comply “with any
.of the articles of this agreement” that
the chureh might take possession of the
premises, after giving three days notice
in writing, complete the building and
charge the costs thereof to the con
tractors; (d) that the architect should
make estimates on fhe last days of
August, September, October and No
vember of the value of the material and
labor furnished by the contractors, and
the church at said dates should pay to
the contractors three-fourths ot the
amount of said estimates; (e) that the
church should protect by insurance to
cover its interest in the property when
payments had been made to the con
tractors. To secure the performance of
their agreements the contractors exe
cuted a bond to the church, signed by
themselves as principals, and a number
of parties as sureties. The building was
not completed by the 31st of December,
1890, and the contractors were proceed
ing with its construction on the 18th of
February, 1891, when it was totally
destroyed by fire. Prior to the 31st of
December, 1890, the church had paid to
the contractors for labor and material,
tife sum of $12,440; prior to the day of
destruction of the building the church
had paid to the contractors $14,489.59.
me cnurcn iook out insurance on the
property in the sum of $10,000, and no
more. The church sued the contractors
and the sureties on their bond to recover
the money paid to the contractors under
the c din tract. Held. (1) That the fail
ure of the church to keep the building
insured to the extent of its interest
therein was a complete defense for the
sureteies on the bonds of the contract^
ors; (2) the object of the provision in
the contract requiring the church to
insure its interest in the property was to
lessen the risks taken by the sureties;
(5) that the sureties were under no obli
gations to make inquiries from lime to
time to ascertain if the church had com
plied with its contract to insure its in
terest in the property; (4) that the
sureties had a right to suppose that the
church would comply with its contract
in that respect, and that if the building
should be destroyed before its accept
ance by the church, and they were called
upon to and did make good the loss that
they would be entitled by abrogation or
otherwise to the benefit of the insurance
effected on the property by the church;
(5) that the question as to whether the
destruction of the building was the
result of the negligence of the contract
ors was an immaterial issue; (0) that
the church could not excuse its failure
to comply with its part of the contract
on the ground that its performance
would have been of no value to the
sureties because the loss of the building
through the negligence of their princi
pals would defeat a recovery of the in
surance if it had been effected; (7) that
its duty was to insure the property, and
when the loss sued for occurred and was
paid by the sureties, to transfer to them
the insurance contracts, and leave the
sureties and the insurance companies to
litigate the question of the latters’ lia
bility: (8) that the fact that the church
was unable to procure responsible in
surance companies to write insuiance on
the building to the extent of its Interest
therein did not relieve it from the per
formance of its agreement to insure the
property to the extent of its interest; (9)
that it is evident from the contract that
it was within the contemplation of the
parties thereto at the time it was made
that the building jpight not be completed
at the very day fixed by the terms of the
contract, and that ff it were not the
church had the option to permit the
cumraciors to nmsu tne work and to
recover from them whatever damages
the chureh might sustain by reason of
the building not being completed in
time, or the church might at its option
exclude the contractors from any further
connection with the work and complete
it itself; (10) that the church by per
mitting the contractors without protest
or objection to continue the work after
the date when the building was to be
completed recognized the contract as in
full force, and as long as it was in force
the church was under obligation to per
form its part-of it; (11) that by such act
it waived, as it had a right to do, the
completion of the building on the day
named in the contract, and reserved the
right to recover damages from the con
tractors for the delay
CAMP FiHE AND PICNIC.
The O. A. It. boys of Leonia will

THE El JAWS NEAR
The Long Drawn Ont Trial Nearly
Completed.
BOTH SIDES HAVE RESTED
The State Has Made a Good Caie But a Con
viction Not Anticipated.
Butte, Nkb , June 19.—[Special.]—
Mis* McWhorter, who was the diet
witness on the stand this morning, did
not diverge from the story told by her
at the preliminary. The main feature
of the day was the examination of the
man, Palmer, 'of Dorsey. He stated
that be passed through Parker on his
way to O'Neil! about 2 o'clock on the
afternoon of the fat^l day. He noticed
a team coming behind him, which he
supposed was Scott's team. It was
about two miles away. He met a man
about eighty rods on the other side of
Parker, who was going northeast, wore
a fur overcoat, blue overalls, dark cap,
pants outside of his boots, walked very
straight, had very dark eyes. His frrst
impression on seeing Mullihan shortly
after at O’Neill was that be was the
same man he bad met near Parker, but
since that time he has seen another man
who answers the description 'better.
This man he claims is H. McEvony, who
is ex-sheriff of Holt county. At this
time Mullihan was brought before the
witness, and upon close observation the
witness said that Mullihan's eyes were
too light to answer the description ot
the man he saw near Parker on the day
the assault was made. It will be re
membered that the man at the prelimi
nary identified Mullihan as the man
seen, and in private conversation said
he would know him in hell. The re
flection cast upon ex-Sberiff McEvouy
is nothing if not ridiculous. It is well
kuown that he was in O’Neill that day
and among the first to brave the intense
cold when a searching party was
formed.
The evidence of Schmidt taken at the
preliminary, was .read to the jury. He
positiyely identified Elliot as the man
who drove the cart when he was sepa
rated from Scott.
Butte, Neb., June 20.—[Special.]—
In the trial today the matter of venue
was settled beyond a doubt in regard to
the murder of Scott and as to whether
it was done in Boyd or Holt county, by
the testimony of John Harvey, who for
seventeen years has lived in Holt county
near the YVhiting bridge. The identifi
cation of the tracks that went over the
bridge and then returned to Holt county,
was a conveyance that contained Scott
cannot be successfully contradicted.
3cott was not strangulated and not
banged as people are supposed to be
who are strung up by a mob. The tes
timony of Harvey is corroborated by the
medical testimony of Dr. Salter, of Nor
folk, and Dr. McDonald of Atkinson;
both of them swore that the murder un
ier the circumstances shown to exist,
the weather and all, must have been
committed within a few minutes of the
time that the body was put into the
river, and under no circumstances, to
exceed two hours prior.
The first witness put upon the stand
was little Fannie Scott, aged 8 years.
3he is an exceptionally bright little girl
and remembers the incidents well. She
itated that during the assault at Parker
ber father had her ask one of the men if
he had a little gtrl, which she did, but
the man made her no answer. She says
she has seen this man since the day at
Parker. It was at her father’s house at
O'Neill, and she identified him by his
eyes and a'certaiu way he stood, which
she noticed both times.
The evidence of J. P. Gilligan and
that of J. L. Biddle, as given at the pre
liminary, was read to the jury.
Peter Kelley said that he lived about
two miles from the Postlewaite house.
He heard a team pass his house about 7
p. m. of December 31. It was a wagon
he thought, and was being driven quite
rapidly. About noon on December 3U
he saw Mulliban pass his house on horse
back, going in the direction of Elliott's.
The examination of Chas. Hall and
Theodore Crawford followed.
John Harvsy again testified as to the
wagon tracks at the bridge and the
opening in north side of channel.
Simon Simonson testified as to the
overshoes worn during the winter by
Harris. Mr. Petterson also testified to
the overshoes; said that he loaned a
shotgun to Harris a week before the as
sault. Gun was number 10. The shells
found at the scene of the crime were
number 10. Sheriff Hamilton was call
ed for the purpose of identifiying a
shell found at the Postlewaite house.
Dell Akin identified the quilt found in
the river, after which the state rested.
Butte, Nbb.. June 21.—[Special.]—
When court commenced today, the de
fondants' counsel moved the court to in
struct the jury to return a verdict of not
guilty without requiring any evidence
from the defendants, for the reason that
no evidence tending to show the com
mission of the crime of murder in Boyd
county; no evidence tending to sustain
a conviction and no evidence that Bar
ret Scott was strangled in Boyd county,
was offered by the state.
This was argued at length by Harring
ton and Golden and numerous cases
cited. Attorney Gurley and Churchill
argued that it was not a material allega
tion. The court passed upon it in a
very lengthy opinion, the substance of
which was „that the question of venue
was a matter of fact for the jury to de
termine.
August Oberly being the first witness
called to testify in behalf of the defen
dants, stated that be was 60 years of
age, a resident of Holt county, was at'
home on the morning of December 81.
He left home about eleven o’clock, went
to Mr. Postlowaite’s then to Kelley’s
who was township supervisot, bis busi
ness being to get the township property
together, • be being elected supervisor.
He got one statement and two other
book] at Kelley’s. It was about noon
and he went to the school house to get
the voting booths and then southeast to
Tom Lear’s place. He left Lear's house
about 8:30 and went south. He saw
Moses Elliott and Mert Hoy coming
from the west, driving one sorrel and
one . bay horse to a top»buggy They
turned and went north towards home at
the section corner. The night of De
cember 31 was dark as there was no
moon.
Peter Kelley, the next witness culled,
stated that August Oberly was at bis
place about nfton on the 81st, gathering
up property belonging to the township.
Oberly in leaving his place went south
toward the school house.
T. A. Butterfield of Knox county was
called. He was acquainted with Mulli
han and met Mullihan coming from
Creighton on December 31, and made
an agreement with him to trade a pony
for a colt, the trade to be consummated
the following week.
Joseph Shattmeyer went to the Bo
hemia mills, Knox county, on December
31, and left the mills about 3 o’clock in
the afternoon, arriving home about 7
o’clock in the evening. It was very
dark.
Ben Postlewaite was called and iden
tified the shell found by Hershiser as
the one found by him and left at the
house several months prior to the cap
ture. Oberly was at the house on the
31. He saw him again at the school
house at the Women’s Christian Tem
perance union meeting that evening.
Coming home about 11 o’clock no moon
or stars were visible.
James A. Barnes testified that he had
been hunting horses that day and was
acquainted with Elliott whose reputa
tion was good. The night was dark.
Judge McCutcheon of Holt county,
identified Harris’ overshoes as the ones
shown to Miss McWhorter at the pre
liminary hearing, which she claimed
were not the same as worn at Parker.
He said Schmidt was acquainted with
Elliott and had seen them conversing
together. He heard Schmidt mention
Elliott’s name during the conversation.
The witness identified the silver ring on
Elliott’s finger as the one worn at the
time the conversation took place be
tween Schmidt and Elliott. He has
seen Elliott wearing this ring for the
last four years. He never saw Elliott
wear a gold ring. The judge swore that
Miss McWhorter testified at the prelim
inary hearing that her finger nails
would not fit on the scars on the back
of Mulliban’s band. Tom Lear, who
lived at the time of the assault, about
half a mile from Elliott’s stated that El
liott was at his house on December 30,
and had a new double and single tree on
his buggy which was painted black.
Elliott and Roy accompanied by
another man passed his house about 11
o’clock on the morning of the 81st. They
were in a buggy drawn by one' sorrel
and one bay.
Butte, Neb., June 23.—[Special.]—
Elliott wag placed on the stand this
morning. In giving an account of hig
whereabouts that day said that Roy,
Mullihan and himself were together;
went out looking for a horse and found
it. Did not remember that Roy’s buggy
was peculiar in any respect. Particu
larly in the respects noticed by Mrs.
Scott. lie was not at Parker that day
nor did he wear a mask December 31.
Never owned a gold ring.
Oberly was re-culled and testified that
he saw Elliott about 4 o'clock December
31 near Elliott’s home.
Sargeant was recalled and said that
Biddle lias a white horse, also a double
box wagon, and these may have been
the ones used at Parker.
Mr. and Mrs. McQowen were both
called to identify the silyer ring on El
liott’s finger.
On December 31, at 6 o’clock, Reuben
Newton getting on the wrong road, was
led to Elliott's house, saw him and con
versed with him for a few minutes.
This closed the evidence used to prove
an alibi for Elliott.
Mr. Cams mot ilarris on Blackbird
creek December pi, about 13:30. Ue
was riding a gray horse and looking for
a gray mare. This was ten miles dis
tant from Parker. Witness said at 8
o’clock it was quite dark, no moon be
ing visible.
Dan Cronin was acquainted with Ilar
ris and said that his reputation in that
country is good. Ue saw Harris pass
his house twice on the 81, once
about 3 o'clock going west and again at
4 coming from the north. When asked
as to the veracity of Polk, a former wit
ness for the state, be stated that it had
always been considered good by his
neighbors.
Andrew Smith said he had heard
Brennan, Planner, Cohen, and other
nt.gbbors of Polk say that he could not
tell the truth.
Mr. Nat McGrew also saw Harris pass
Cronin’s place on December 81 about 3
o’clock.
Hon. H. R. Henry, Arch Henry,
and James Stanton were onlled and test
ified that Harris was considered in bis
neighborhood to be a peaceable and law
abiding citize^n. They were also asked
about the reputation for veracity of a
former witness named Polk, which they
said was generally considered not good.
They could not recall any particular
time when said Polk’s reputation had
been discussed.
James Reed said he and McAllister
had met and conversed with Polk about
tbis matter and Polk had expressly said
he was going to. do all he could against
Harris in the trial. Polk bad previous
ly testified that he did not meet these
men nor make such a statement. Reed
also said Harris was considered a man
of good reputation. Polk was noted for
untruthfulness.
Jonn McAllister was called. He also
testified as to the meeting and conversa
tion. He said Polk’s reputation for
truthfulness is bad. He had known
Harris for a long time and he has a good
reputation among all his neighbors.
. Miss Ada Linsworth testified as to the
bonversatlon between herself, Harris
and Simonson, wherein she joked Har
ris about the kind of a mask to wear
when he next assaulted Scott. She
stated others of their family were pres
ent and took part in a joking way.
This occurred after the preliminary
hearing.
Harry Stanton, who waa also arrested
in this case but recently dismissed, ap
peared on the stand. It seems he and
Harris were batching it alone in Decem
ber. He was at Harris’ farm part or the
day Sunday, December 80. Harris went
to hunt a horse that had strayed!
8hortly after Stanton left, going to Mc
Allister’s. On Monday they left about 8
o’clock, together, went two miles and
separated. They both returned by 11
o’clock, got dinner and were away dur
ing the afternoon, returning about dusk.
Stanton brought home with him a herd
of horses that he found near Young’s.
That evening he went home, got some
clean clothes and remained over night.
Stanton states firmly that he was not at
Parker on December 81, did not assist
in the capture nor see Scott or family.
Men Roy, one of those arrested for
the crime, but since dismissed, was call
ed, and told in substance, the same
story as Elliott had related about their
going with Mulliban to find one of El
liott's horses for the purpose of trading.
They started about 12:30 and returned
about 5 on the day of December 31.
They rode in his buggy with a sorrel
and bay team. He described the wbiftie
trees of his buggy and said he painted
them on Thursday. In answer to the
questions propounded about the assault
and crime, he said he was not in Parker
and did not assist in the tragedy.

SCHOOL KEETIJfB.
The annual school meeting was toeld
in the school-house Monday afternoon
and was quite largely attended. There
was considerable censure of the old
board for employing teachers for the
ensuing year, which partly accounted
for the large attendance.
The candidates placed in nomination
were: Doyle, McGreevy, Horriskey,
Woodruff and Staonard. Dovle, Wood
ruff and Slannard were elected by large
majorities. Doyle being elected for one
year, to fill vacancy.
A levy of 10 mills for general purposes
and 5 mills for the teachers’ fund wae
made. The debt of the district, is
about $16,000. This includes its bonded
indebtedness, which is about $9,000.
The levy made at the last meeting will
not be sufficient to run the school for
the ensuing year, and when the next
annual meeting is held the district will
be deeper in debt than it is at the present
time.
