Fremont Tribune : The Union Pacific
strikers are growing more hopeful every
day , and with ovouts of the past forty-
eight hours they have become quite
elated over the prospect. It was
rumored from private eastern dispatches
that the Harriman directors are getting
tired of "bucking" union labor , and
with the threatened rupture on the
Southern Pacific have determined to
put an end to the controversies by treat
ing amicably with the employes. The
report continues further that President
Burt has had instructions from the east
ern directors to make every effort to
bring the difficulty on the Union Pacific
to a close.
The football enthusiasts anticipate a
good game and a pleasant time at Madi
son tomorrow when the high school
team of this city and that of the county
seat will contest for honors on the grid
iron. The Norfolk team has never
been in bettor shape than it is now and
they will outer the game with the ex
pectation of winning. They hope that
a largo number of those interested in
such sports will accompany the team to
Madison tomorrow. The boys report
that their dealings with the manage
ment of the Madison team have boon
highly satisfactory , more so in faot than
the dealings they have had with any
other team this season.
The corner on which the power plant
of the gas company is situated was bril
liantly illuminated last night. Ono
street lamp had been placed and was
burning and several lights wore burned
in the office room of the station. The
light produced is somewhat yellow as
compared with the blue blaze of the
electric are lamps , but it is very intense
aud should prove very satisfactory to
those wanting bright lights. It is un
derstood that there is a still more power
ful lamp made for the use of illuminat
ing gas and ouo of these has been
ordered and will bo tested. The intima
tion that there may bo a further im
provement in the lights when the sys
tem gets to working properly does not
B > em possible to those who saw the
light of last night.

and Higgins were present at the meeting
and assisted in the conferring of the de
grees and other work undertaken. The
hall was not ample enough to accomo-
data all desirious of attending and it is
hoped to secure the Odd Fellows hall
for the next meeting. A large proportion
tion the class of last night were
from the Junction. Since the meeting
at which the Bonnie Doon team at Lin
coln took part there has been an in
creased interest in the work of the
Royal Highlanders and the member
ship is now above 100 , the objective
point desired before the next meeting

HODGES APPEARED ON STAND.
Defense Entered Plea of "Not Guilty"
but Mndo No Effort to Sustain It ,
Other Proceedings of the Courts of
Justice.
Sheriff Clements brought Max Spahr
and J , A. Baird over from Madison yes
terday for a hearing before Justice of
the Peace C. F. Eisoloy for their share
In the assault and the cutting of the
throat of George Hodges , colored , on
the night of October 10. They were
bound ovqr to the district court to stand
trial for the offouso. The bond of Spahr
was fixed at $1,000 aud that of Baird at
$500. The prisoners wore taken to
Madison again this morning , bonds not
being furnished , and their hearing will
bo held before the coming term of the
district court.
The complaint filed by County At
torney Mapos charges the prisoners with
violationof the law on three counts :
Assault with intent to kill and commit
murder ; highway robbery , and the last
was a charge of assault with intent to
wound. The count charging robbery
specified the taking of ouo $5- and one
f 10-bill and about $1 in change. The
prisoners pleaded not guilty to all of the
counts but no attempt at a dofouso was
mado. M. D. Tyler and W. M. Robert
son appeared for the prisoners and
County Attordoy Mapcs dirooted the
p osooutiou.
The only witness put on the stand
was the victim of the assault , George
Hedges , who appears to have almost
fully recovered from the wounds ho re
ceived on that occasion. Ho told a very
straight-for ward story , and the counsel
for the prisoners appeared to bo tumble
to confuse him with a searching cross-
examination. Ho told the story from
the time ho and his companions cauio to
the city through the assault and what
occurred afterward. His ouo weak
point was a failure to recall the cross
ing of the bridge. Ho described the
motions with which the prisoners com
mitted the assault and told all that
happened , including the cutting of his
throat and that ho had filled the wound
with dirt to stop the flow of blood. Ono
important point of his testimony con
flicted with the story told at the time of
the assault , and that was that Baird
took his tobacco pouch instead of his
pocketbook and then fled , but that Spahr
secured his purse afterward. Ho will
undoubtedly prove a good witness for
the prosecution as he appeared to have
his wits about him all the timo.
Spahr and Baird will bo confined in
the county jail until district court
convenes , which will ba some time this
month.
Settling a Dispute.
J. L. McAllister and B. Meyer wore
before Police Judge Hayes last evening ,
the court being summoned from homo
to attend to their cases. The charge
against the men was disorderly conduct ,
aud the court impartially fined each an
amount which , with the costs , made
their levy $8.10. Meyer paid his fine
promptly and no doubt considered that
he had received very fair value for his
money. McAllister was given until
noon to square himself with the court
It seems that Meyer had a wagon ,
loaded with apples , which McAl
lister claims was his. He wanted the
wagon and wanted it bad enough to en
deavor to hook onto it without the con
sent of the man who owned the apples
that it contained. This led to trouble
and McAllister alleged that Meyer as
saulted him with a ueokyoko , and ad
mitted that ho probably got the worst of
the deal right there , but ho endeavored
to reciprocate and alleged that ho had
bruised his antagonist up considerably
before ho had finished. The evidence
at police court was that McAllister had
suffered the loss of the most blood , if
the rags that had boon applied to the
wound were capable of giving testi
mony.
Neither of the belligerents wore
under the influence of intoxicants but
both were energetically sustaining what
they believed to bo their rights in the
.controversy.
It is intimated that the end may not
yet bo in sight. Meyer would like to
proseouto on the obargo of attempting
to steal a wagon , and McAllister thinks
that he might prove a charge of assault
and battery against the owner of the
wagon.
Charged With Cruelty.
Chris Manteufel was before Justice
Conloy's court yesterday on the charge
of brutally abusing his wifo. The com
plaint was finally dismissed and the de
fendant assessed the costs , amounting
to $10.35.
Mantenfol lives on a farm. 12 miles
southeast of the city with his wife and
two children. She would not make
complaint against her loigo lord , but her
mother , Mrs. Klippan , and other rela-
tlvps took up the case for her aud they
are determined that the woman shall
never live with Mantoufol again , but
have commenced suit for divorce aud a
division of the property.
When Mautoufol appeared in the
court ho was warmly aud comfortably
olad and Ills well foil and contented i\i- |
pcaraium win in vivid contrast with the
woman whom ho hud mvorn to love and
protect. Her condition wan pltlablo in
the extreme , Her form was bunt and
bowed with the Hitfforing she had nn-
dorgouo.
She was scantly olothud and it in al
leged Unit she had boon forced t o slave for
her husband in the uornflold , husking
corn early and lute while ho handled the
money and applied muoh of it to Ills
own comfort and pleasure , In addition
to this treatment it is alleged that ho ro-
[ ) natodly boat her ,
On the contrary Mantoufol claims
that ho has not boon unduly harsh with
Ids wifo. Ho admits as true that she has
worked iu the corn field , but olatuiH
that it wan of her own free will. They
liad a patch of oorn that they wore
anxious to have husked aud both
worked hard to finish it. Ho claims
they would never have trouble but for
her relatives.
For Disorderly Conduct.
John Smith was before the police
court this morning charged with dis
