Georg S. Leo, the young man who
is under arrest for tho theft of a large
mhr of railwavticketa at Louisville,
plead guilty to the charge of forgery
in district court this afternoon, but
Judge Jessen will not pronounce sen
tence until tomorrow.
It was quite a surprise to the court
and the members of the bar, as a jury
had been emp&nneldd and everything
was in readiness for the trial to pro
ceed. It will be remembered that when Lee
was captured he claimed a man named
Bowers was an accomplice to the crime
end had helped him to make out the
tickets. The defense evidently based
its case entirely upon this representa
tion, and when Bowers appeared this
afternoon as a witness for the State, to
prove where he was at the time the
tickets were stolen, Lee lost no time in
throwing up the sponee, thus saving
the county the additional expense of a

It was a eouth-bound passenger train,

1030 p. m. Very little could be learned
of the robbery in railroad circles in
this city today.but it was reported that
the men took a large number of
watches and other valuables from the

place in these parts for a number of

8aprmo Court PUcfi More Litigation
Abend o Bnrtley'a Bondimen.
Before adjourning yesterday the bu
nmmA nmirt sustained the motion of
Attorney Gsneral Smyth asking a re
hearing in the Bartley Dona case, says
the Lincoln News. The district court
of Douglas county granted a judgment
in favor of the state , against Wm. A.
Paxton and other Bartley bondsmen In
th ...m of 1600.000. Tbis judgment
the supreme court reversed lome time
ago; and it was a rehearing on ine re
versal that was granted last evening.
Th nttornev ccneral is of the opinion
that since the personnel of the court
has changed he will be abia to secure
m. ludirment in behalf of the etate.
One of the grounds of defense set up
by the bondsmen was mat tne dodo was
not approved by Governor Holcomb
within the statutory time, .ww nui
comb is on the supreme bench, and it
thought hardly probable that he will
decide against himself. Another
ground of defense was that the second
term bondsmen should not have been
held liable for 1300,000 of the shortage
as it occurred during Hartley's first
term, and the attorney general had
brought suit in the district court of
Lancaster county to recover it. The
second term bonJsmen were not per
mitted by the court to introduce such
evidence. This was one of the grounds
for reversal some weeks ago.

From Thursday's Daily.
About 12 o'clock last night Marshal
Slater was awakened from his peaceful
slumbers by the vigorous ringing of
the telephone bell at his homo. Think
ing, perhaps, a murder had teon com
mitted, he lo9t no time getting up and
answering the call. The voica through
the 'phone requested him to come down
town immediately, as the owner of the
aforesaid voice staled that he had
been "touched" for a gold watch. The
marshal suggested that he tell his
troubles to the night policemen, whoso
duty it is to look after such matters.
However, tho party evidently had
more confidence in the marshal, and
finally offered that official a f 5 bill if
ho would come to his assistance.
When tbe officer arrived on the
sc3ue, the party, who is oue of Platti
mouth's young "society men," told him
a pitible little tale of woe, in substance
to the effect that, while taking home a
"girl friend," the latter had taken the
liberty to relieve him of a valuable
gold watch. He was positive fhe was
the guilty party, and urged the mar
shal to lose no time in bringing her
before the bar of justice for punish
ment. An hour later there was a
lively scene in Judge Archer's office.
The "girl",, was there having been
ruthlessly awakened from her slum
bers and escorted down town together
with the night police force and the
young man - who - had - lost - his-watch.
The latter still persisted that the was
the thief, but when the officers hinted
that they would arrest them both, he
made a strenuous objection, saying he
would prefer to lose his watch rather
than have his parents hear of him be
inginjtil. Becoming convince! that
the "girl" did not have the misting
time-piece, M irshal Slater conceivtd
the idea to search the young man, and,
to tho surprise of all especially one
found the missing article in his hip
pocket.
There was a fiint eiTirt on the part
of tho yountr man to muke excuses, but
nothing like this would go with Mar
shal Slater who, p-iihaps, thought of
the needed sleep of which he was be
ing deprived and he took possession of
the w(atch, ir.formir g the owner that
it would be given- back to him when
ever he brought around tne $5 bill.
The party finally broke up, and at last
accounts the marshal still had the
watch.
