A DETECTIVE'S STIFF.
The Whole Story of Royal
Riggins' Resurrection
a Canard.
The Coffin Nevdr Unsealed
at AIL
0 ir raiders will remember the re
cent xccunt of > in alleged resurrec
tion jf the boHy of R .yal T. R ggins ,
who shot hitust-lf on the Union Pacific
emigrant tr in , near Nunh Phtte ,
some months ago. It was claimed
that Rig tui was insured aud that the
coffin was found filled with tand , in
dicating that there WAS an attempt to
defraud the Insurance coinpinyoic.
Yesterday a letter was received
by Mr. John G. Jacobs , the under
taker , from Dr. E. B. Eusor , tbo
brother-in-law of the deceased , which
places the matter in a new light aud
shows the whole story , as started by
Tne Chicago Times and Marysville
Democrat , to ba without founda
tion. The doctor says : Riggins
never Lai nia life insured in any
company , and ther * has never baeu
any application made for money , his
grave bas never been disturbed by any
person. Deputy-Sheriff Stotta never
went to St LJUIS afur 'the chief con
spirator' or any one. "
"The lie was started by a mtu
named Johu Broyles , who was acting
as a detective in the Talbot trial
Wanting to make himself
appear smart he told a lawyer in
Marysville , named Gr ffl i , in the
presence of Judge Morehouse , that ho
( Brojl < j ) was working this up. I saw
it in the St. Louis papers and fol
lowed it back to Marysville , Nodaway
county , Mo. , and there found thai
Griffin was the man who wrote
the first article , being instruct
ed to do so by BroyKa
We nil tike care cf Broylus and
othora who started the scandal , if
there is a law that will reach them. "
This pretty effectually disposes of a
story wnich appeared to come under
the head of "truth stranger than fic
tion. " Undertaker Jacobs is also sat
isfied that his excellent work in seal
ing up the casket was net
disturbed to subititute sand for the
dust to du-st returned , and the St.
Joseph medical men are relieved from
ths suspicion of having "an-iked" the
body out oi the coffin on its way lotbs
grave. * It was a big jam and this
furnishes a very satisfactory solution.

THE G , B.
rls What the City Council Gave
the Charges Against Coun-I
oilman Stephenson.
The End of What Should Have
Had no Beginning.
An adjourned meeting of the city
ouncil was held Tues ay o tle
up the case of Couucilm < tn James
Stephenson , agiintt who n certain
vauue charges had been preferred by
tha jud'ciary committee , under in
structions i f the council.
Ten of the twelve members were
present , toge her with a cloud of wit
nesses subpceied by the defendant
and by the counclL
President Boyd stated the object of
the meeting britfly , after which Mr.
Libagh asked that the city attorney ,
who was present , give his opinion ns
to the right of the body to expel a
member , on being convicted of
charges of this character.
City attorney Manderson stated
that he had given no particular re
search to the subject until called upon
to-day by Judge Wakeley , counsel f > r
the accused , who had asked him if the
council had suuh a right. In his ( the
city attorney's ) opinion , a body of
their character must have the right to
remove temporarily or permanently a
member. He cited commcn law in
support of thiu opinion.
The following resolution introduced
by Mr Diily , was theu read by the
olerk :
RESOLVED , That the investigation
of the charges brought against Cunn-
cil-nan S ephenenn be postponed un
til March 29h , 1881 , at savea o'clock
p. m.
Several of the councilmen followed
the reading of the resolution with
brief remarks , tbe general
tenor of which was that
while the charges had been made in
good faith by the committee they were
groundless. Every member who ex
pressed an opinion on the subject as
serted his belief that tha charges were
groundless and that further proceed
ings would be folly.
Mr. D.ily said , in behalf of Mr.
S ephenson , that that gentleman was
ready whenever the council was ready
and that he would leave it in their
hands.
Mr. Dodge's resolution , ( it wai in
troduced by Dailey but signed by
Dodgt ) wai adopted.
The council udi < urncd.
It was the intention of the mnver of
this resolution tuai it thoulddo away
entiiely with any further proceedinga
In the matter , and this is the almost
unanimous desire of the council. The
29th of March falls on Friday , on
which date there is , uf course , no
meeting , unless a special one sh < uld
30 called , and as the entire council
will go out of office within a week's
; ttne , it cjuld not be brought up
tiereafter.
Mr. Stephenson's course since he
enie ed the council has beeu that of
a nun d-termined to Gght for the
city's interests at all times and at
what ver personal c.'at i f time or
money. If .it time * ha has nff-nded
th-j b dy of which he is n mambrr , ii
las beeu beciuce he was too plainspoken -
spoken and severe on other memburj
Of Mr. Stephensoifs hens < y aud in
cearity in matters great or small we
do not think there can be any qu s
tion. Those who have oppos
ed him most strongly have
said as much to our
reporter and expressed their regret
that the charges in question were
brought. Now that they are disposed
of to the satisfaction of both parties
and the public which is heartily sick
and tired of such foolishness it is to
ba hoped that the remaining few
weeks of the existence of the ciry leg
islature will be * passed in peace and
quiet.

That Which Precedes tha D wn
of brighter E > pes for Ireland ,
The Signs of the Times Ana
lyzed by Hon. John Rush.
An Appeal to Irishmen to
Ra 17 Around the Land
League.
To tbe Fdltor of
Your p per has baen consistently
kind and honorable in Its treatment
of the Irish lan-i quest'on , and in the
name of the Irish-Amaricau element
of Nebraska , I thank you for your
outspoken and onerous sympathies
Were I an Englishmen by birth , I
should hold you iuthesiine respect.
It is now pretty generally understood
that this is not a "war of races , " that
in fact it is nothing but a manly aud
Independent protest of the people
against fostering aristocracy , whose
pollu'ed hinds have transmuted con
tagion to the Irish and English people
alike. It is.a fact worthy of commen
dation that the press of thh c mutry.
echoing the sentiiqentj of i'S readers ,
has unhesitatingly pronounced against
Englind , and is in perfect accuid
with the Lvnd League. This is but
just and reasonably if it were other
wise it would cot only ba in direct
conflict with our own principles as a
democracy , but it would be a virtual
acknowledgment of the superiority of
monarchial institutions as compared
with our OWP
It Is to be regretted , however , that
some papers have seen fie to criticise
the action of P rnell a > id his associates
in their opposition to the coercion bill
in the house of commons lately. These
mistaken advisers , who mean well , nu
doubt , think that the home rulers
ought not to show such hostility to
Gladstone , and with some pjtulence
they accuse the Irish of imprudence ,
precipitancy , hostility to "friends"
&c N > w I will ask , does any man
suppose for one moment that any good
to the Irish can come of Gladatjne'H
government except thnt which H co
erccd ? Americ-ms have a very crudu
idea of "whig" and "tory , " as applied
to English politics ; it is only thosu
who have lived under the < iilTeort ad
ministrations of the English monarchy
that can judge with an ; accuracy. But
why should we m this country man :
fe-t any friendship for the libaral ( ? )
Mr. Gladstone I would draw ihuat
tention of your readers to an editorial
of Harper's Weekly , publis'iod May

* * * Mr. Gladatom , cabinet
minister , justifies E < i Und's sympathj
with the rebels " , Following th's Mr.
Curtis clurgeEmland with uti-ig her
ports f > r the fi ting out , and protection
of rebel cralsers. Southampton ana
Gkbrftltar , and Bermuda , and the
Bthaoias were havcus of rest , for over-
wjrked Aiabamas. But Mr. Glad-
atone , cabinet minister , "liberally"
justifies England's sympathy wirh the
rebels.
How different it WHS on the other
side of the Irish sea. The people of
Emerald Isle (1 ( know svhfireofIspeik | )
considered the American fra'raciditt
rebellion as the greatest curae that
ever came upon mankind Every-
movement from the diiKster cf Bui
Runto the murder of rur martyr
presiden' , in which defeat tutt the
artnj of tl.o north , c-tusad regret and
and heart iircorrespoiidintr < pro
portion as the victories of Grant ,
Sherman and Sheririan caused noiver-
3 d joy and happiness. And whet is
true of the Irish tna > iu justice bo al
so said of the ptoductug classes in
England and Scotland It tvas the
ari6tociatc governing power of Ens-
land , ( of wuici Mr. Gladstone was
cabinet minister ) The Lond'in Times
spoke for whoa it exultantly cried
"The American bubble is burst ! "
No , no , Mr. Editor , Parnell must not
be blamed. Ha aud his colleagues
have shown rcma kible wiscom as
well as untlrin per feveranco. Instead
of violating any law , thuy have com
pelled the English government to
break to law itself. Ju < t imagine the
ridiculous position that ninety
day's trial ( I ) of the "irav-rar j"
placed England in. When she frund
her plans frustrated , when she could
not incarcerate these men in her vile
dungeons without fear of denuncia
tion from the civilized world , l > ku any
old crone , smarting nndor defeat and
disappoiutment'aht ! b came purish and
venomous , and - Michael Davitt ,
in the d-ad of nigbt , aud
without trial or > ven a inoraeut'a
warning was stealthily remanded
back to prison ! England
could not g t a jury to convict him ,
so she became jud d and ju.y and executioner -
ecutioner ht-rself. Poor Micha-1 will
no doubt die in prison , as Edward
Duffy died , and a great many other ? ,
but , their memory will be immortal ,
and Iheir murder will ba avenged.
"Davitt may or may not b" a danger-
ons person , but no man in Ireland has
saved more lives and more property
than he , and the innuman shout of
exultation which greeted the an
nouncement that he had baen re
stored to a convict's prison wa more
worthy of the R min arena thin of
the English house < f cotruions. " The
foregoing quotation Is from Labou-
chere. Don't you think thak this is a
pitiable position for Britania that
"rules the wavfsl" Truly , uneasy
rests the head that wesrs a crown , aud
such a crown as that uf England ,
whose guld WAS assayed from
Vlary's bone * , and wh s * jewels are
the crystalized tears of ci.uuiless wid
ows and orphans. O God of heaven 1
euie'y ' there is a day of reckoning.

mid teai d wn the entire sttusture of
English domination , begot in sin aud

cious readers may gay that I am
too sanguine. Wei ] , in answer _ to
this criticism , I will quote what James
Anthony Frnude Bay a in hia latest
chapter of English history. If I am
too visionary , he mu-t be too gloMny
and mor ise. Sp ° akiog of Irelind'a
