A LETTER FROM MANILA MoiiiImt or tin; Thirty-ninth THIs About the Trip. Hoys all Wall nol Amluui For a right Attorney OiDfl 8nyih Make Argu ments Oa llil n'f of ib fttit Id tb Habeas Cor pun Ch of Corporal Fair an1 i'rlvatr .lurk In. Bert Bmeler, one of trie Piattauiouth boya who Is in Company C, Thirty ninth inf intry,now in the Philippine", has written a letter to a friend in this city. Following aro a number of ex tract tnkci from tin, lotlor: "I nm in tho best of hoalth and have . had a nioo trip. Wo luivo boon on the transp rt 1'ormsyl v.inht for thirty-five days, and it bi plnn to feel like homo aboard. Our regiment U ft Honolulu on November 17. At 10 o'clock in the morning on Jcornber we passed within two rnilea of a live volcano, and il was a grand bight to see the fire and smoke sl otinp out of the top. "Yoftorduy (December (5) we sighted the i'oilippiiies, and are now anchored in the bay the probabilities being that wo will not bo ablo to go ashore for bevorul diiyn. This is a trip wo can never regret; if we are timong the unlucky ones and get killed, we will never know anything about it, while. on the other hand, if wo come back all right wo will be glad that we made the trip. We don't feel the least bit afraid, and aro continually singing such Hongs as 'Jlreak tho News to Mother,' 4My Sweet Heart Went Down with the Maine' and Must as the Sun Went Down.' "There is not a day passes but that my mind wanders back to old Platts mouth, and I think of my friends there. We aro no longer the boys in blue, but tho boys in yellow, having drawn 'kawka' uniforms tho other day." Attorney ienerul'n Arguments. Tiie arguments in the habeas corpus case of Corporal Fair aud Private Jot-kins were continued yesterday in federal court at Lincoln. Attorney Genoral Smyth on behalf of the state, made tho principal speech. Mr Smythe argued along the line that If there was a federal law governing the matters in controversy, tho defend ants did not act within it. Mr. Smyth laid considerable stress upon the poin that when the shooting was done, the two prisoners were not sentinels whose acts are covered in the guard rules Morgan had escaped and was shot in cold blood four miles from the fort Considerable time was spent in accord ance with a wish of Judge Munger in defining "escape" nnd "escaping". I was held that when Morgan bad gotten beyond the range of the guns of tho sentry, ho was an e-caped prisoner The only justification of the act was that the order f the sergeant to Cor porai Fair was loal. It was argued that the superior muscular force of tho two soldiers was not put into effect to capture Morgan before shooting was resorted to. The fact thtt identifica tioQ of the man shot whs not entirely complete when the order was given was commented upon. After the death there was no coroner's jury and none of the usual things that accompany a death of that nature. Attorney General Smyth said that article 59 of tho guard manual had committed to the state authorities the investigation of offenses by soldiers off tho military reservation. Mr. Smvth said there was no army regulation giv ing the army the right to pursue and arrest a deserter after escape. The claim that Corporal Fair tried to find a civil officer was ridiculed. The opportunity for reply was given to District Attorney Summers. Node cision is expected for a short time as tho case involves important points on which a number of legal cases have been cited.

Reproduces the Telrgraina Wbleh lie Received From the Missouri Sheriff One of the MeU(M Asked the Mar hal to Arrest and Bold Blalr--Othrr Local New. In yesterday's News there appeared an article stating that the father of Professor Blair, the magnetic healer. was in the city, intent upon securing fcts which would warrant him in suing Marshal Slater and his bonds men for fal9e imprisonment. Tho facts, so far as the marshal is con cerned, appear to be about sufficient to warrant that officer in arresting Blair, as he was wanted in Missouri to answer to a very Berious charge. When Blair opened an office here he was a stranger and nothing was known as to his antecedents. He had not been here very long when the marshal received a letter from Bun Smith, prosecuting attorney for Clark county, Missouri, asking for his apprehension. The letter reads as follows: Kahoka, Mo , Deo. 27, 1899. C.ty Maibbal, Platlsmouth, Neb. Dear Sir: We want a man by the name of Charles E. Blair. He prac ticed law for soldo time Here; then went to Kansas City, Mo., and we un derstand be Is now in your city. If so, arrest him and wire me at once. He is wanted here for embezzlement and for gery. He is posing as a magnetic heater at present. He is about five feet, eight inches in height; weighs about 170 pounds; brown hair; cloudy gray eyes. Goes well drressed and usually walks with a cane. He is a smooth follow and will deceive you if you are not particular and stay on your guard. Please givo this matter your personal attention and oblige. Yours. Verv Respectfully, JonN F. Kelly, Sheriff. Per. Ben Smitit, Prosecuting Attorney. At once, upon receipt of this letter, Marshal Slater located Blair and, in stead of placing him under arrest, he telegraphed the prosecuting attorney at Kahoka that he had Blair located and awaited further instructions. The following day J. F. Kelly, the sheriff, telegraphed tho marshal as follows: Kahoka, Mo., Dec. 28. 1899. To City Marshal: Arrest and hold until my arrival Dr. Charles E. Blair, mag netic healer, for forgery and embezzle ment. Answer Immediately. J. F. Kelly, Sher.ff. Having secured grounds upon which to hold his man. Marshal Slater at once placed Blair under arrest. Tnis worthy protested vigorously against going to Jiil, ard it was finally deci (led by the Marshal to allow him to remain at the hotel under the custody of Officer Fit zpatrictf ,as ame enceoni modation to Blair. He was permftted to retain his liberty, except that the officer accompanied him wherever he went. The Clark officer found it im p tssible to get bee when he intended and on the 29th he telegraphed Mar shal Slater a follows: Kahoka, Mo., Doc. 29. 1899 To City Marsha': Will arrive at Platts mouth tomorrow morning, at 7:40 Jno. F. Kelly, Sheriff. The next morning he arrived, as pe his telegram, and took Blair back with him. So far as Marshal Slater is concerned the matter ended there. He acted upon the description and charges pre ferred against Blair as he should have done. It would hardly seem that the Marshal, in the exercise of his duties could have done little else than he did. If he was not authorized to ar rest a man upon charges so serious as the foregoing, set out especially when there was no reasonable doubt as to the man's idontity, then it would bo possible for criminals to walk the streets in perfei-t security, regardless of tho officers and the law. It is improbable that the young man's father will do anything with his threatened prosecution of the mar shai and his bondsmen. A case can' not be made out against them, as no damages were inflicted upon Blair and be never entered th? jail, but was permitted to stay at tho hotel, al though under surveillance. Blair, sr., is evidently a great big bluffer. INFORMATION and opinion. In Pennsylvania a new telephone transmitter has been devised and is beint? manufactured. It is so con structed that the outer casing and mouthpieces may be removed for the purpose of cleaning without disturbing the diaphragm and carbon parts in an nner casing independent of the outer shell. The diaphragm is held in place by a threaded ring which screws n the inner casing. It is, therefore, ndependent of the adjustment of the mouthpiece or any other condition of the outer eating. The manufacturer adjusts tho instrument, and no subse quent adjustment is needed. In New York a doctor has sent a let ter to the park board proposing a sys tem of signals in the park, which will do away with much of the uncertainty regarding runaways. He suggested that at the reservoirs there be sta tioned alarm bells, which will ring under certain conditions, and that they be electrically equipped and con nected with various stations along the different roads. At each station will be detailed a saddle horse and rider. probably from the police department, and as Boon as the bell rings the horse will be released, somewhat as with the system in vogue in the fire department Those in carriages and horseback ri ders will then be warned by the ring ing of bells at the different stations, so that they can get out of the way of danger.

Fortu nately, no ote was killed, but they were all more or less bruised. Koudmaeter O'Donnell of the Bur lington stopped off between trains to day, onroute to Lincoln. A special from Chicago says: "P. S.

Jnmes Uivett, superintendent of buildings for tho Burlington, was in the city today.

Aside from 1699 being a record year as to tho number of cars built, it is also a record year in the carrying c pacity of the individual cirs. It would be quito impossible to make any esti mate in the increase in tho carrying capacity of the average car, or tho in crease in tho total capacity of tho freight cars actually in service, but it is a well-known fact that the Increase has been substantial. The construction work on the new union depot st Omaha was completed last evening and this morning tho ele vators were put in motion. Representatives of the passenger de partments of tho five railroads enter ing Lincoln havo organized tho Lin coln passenger association, with Frmk H.

Walker, writes from Chicago that the press hasti misrepresented things. Tiik News takes tho follow ing from her loiter: "You will doubtless be surprised to receive my letter dated from this point. The general officers' mei ting for J.muary 3 1 nnd 4ih was called, so I could attend the temple trustees meeting the 4tU and 5th. I arrived in time to attend the W. T. P.
