A NAKED PEISONEE ,
Who Will Have to be Disposed
of in Some Manner.
' ' Cracky Bill , "a character very gen
erally known in this city , and espe
cially to the police authorities , baa
been serving a sentence In the city
jail for some time , which expires to
day. The ordinary course of justice
in finenesses is for the police judge to
make out a doharge : , and the prisoner
Is forthwith Immediately conducted
ontslde of the basement hotel.
In Bill's case , however , there is an
obstacle , whlcli is the fact of his "en
tire nuditity. YtBterday he conceived -
ceived the idea that his clothing was
Inhabited by a species of animal wel
known to ordinary jail quarters , anc
.accordingly he bnrned every rag anc
vestige of his jgarmenta in the stove.
He is now Trapped in a blanket , as
his only covering , and the question is
whether the court will be justified in
drawing upon the city for a suit o
clothes , or in allowing Bill to remain
in durance vile at the municipal ex
pense.

Railroad Jottlcgs.
From Lut Evening's Bee.
The Burlington & Missouri River
railroad is not yet in condition to run
trains , the Kansas City track between
Omaha and Pacific Junction being still
impassable.
The bridge at Oreapolis will be
completed by Thursday , and the plan
now is to resume the regular passenger
and freight trains on that day. The
B. & M. has had its agents at points
which this blockade has affected , in
structed to receive no freight until
the road is opsn . In the meantime
there has been no interruption to local
or through traffic on the main line ,
which has made regular connections
with the C. , B. & Q. at Pacific Junc
tion.
Swan , the cattle , man , made a ship
ment of car-loadsof
to-day twenty-five -
stock , lately fed in liar's dlstlllary
barns. The stock'was shipped over
the Omaha & Republic in Valley road
to Lincoln , thenca by the B. & M. to
Pacific Junction and on to Chicago.
This is tb.3 .first through shipment
from Omaha since last Friday.
J. H. Martin , Esq. , well known in
Omaha as the traveling agent cf the
U. 1 * . railroad , with headquarters at
Indianapolis , has resigned that posi
tion and accepted the general agency
in Indianapolis of the I. 0. & St. L.
railroad.
The trains on the C , B. & Q. and
Wabish railroads came In this morn
ing at Council Bluff ? nearly on timo.
Tbe Northwestern train , which was
due at the Bluffi at 9:30 yesterday
morning , was not in until after eight
o'clock at night. The causes of the
delay were a heavy land slldo about
two miles east of Logan , Iowa , ( which
detained the train fire hours ) and by
a break in the track east of the Bluffs.
At the latter place the water was run
ning across the rails. The
transfer irom the above mentioned
depots to the transfer depot wasmade
in the same minnar as yesterday.
From the transfer depot the platform
flat cars are til ! in place , but will
probsbly be taken away to-morrow , as
Bridge Supt. 0. B. Havens thinks that
It will bo possible by that time to run
the dummy train np to the depot.
About one hundred and fifty pas
sengers and one hundred emigrants
went westward to-day on the Union
Pacific ,
The freight blockade on the other
side rf the river is reported to be
arge and Increasing dally.
Heavy Snow About Ds.
The recent snow storm has affected
he territory north of Omaha , and es-
> ecially tbe railroads , in a serious
manner. A few miles north the fall
was nearly a foot in depth , which al-
owed of several heavy drifts in the
allroad cuts and consequent stoppage
of trains. The cuts on the St. Pnul &
Sioux City railroad between Tekama
and Sioux City are yesterday six feet
leep , which effectually blocks travel.
Trom Sioux City to Mankato , Minne-
ota , on the Chicago , St. Paul & Oma-
la railroad , a distance of nearly two
lundrcd miles , the snow in many
places is three feet deep. May not
he present season bo the begin
ning of another of those glacial pe
riods that have frozen up the inhabit
able portion of the world once in 00- ,
000 years ?
The Wetera Falling.
The signal eervice gauge showed
yesterday that up to 1 o'clock the
river had fallen two feet and aoven
Inches , standing at eighteen feet end
eleven inches above low water mark.
This shows an average fall of two-
thirds of an Inch par hour. The
prospect is that the decline will be
at 111 more rapid by to-night and to
morrow.
Sporting Notes.
The biggest bag of the season was
recently brought In by Gen. Crook
and Mr. J. S. Collins , from thePiatte
river. In a hunt of four hours Thurs
day they bigged 235 ducks , of which
S3 were canvas back. The- latter are
very scarce and hard to get , and this
number sorpissts any duck hunting
exploit recorded heretofore.

"Bo&ert Einmet"
After months of careful study un
der the abla direction of Mr. Harry
J. Parr , the Ivanhoes will appear at
tEe. Academy'of Music on next Mon
day evening in the historical drama of
"Robtrt Emmet. " The play is by
one of the ablest dramatists of the
age , Henry Pilgrim. It is a faithful
chronicle of the touching incidents
and historical scenea in the life zt Ire-
Und's most ba'oved patriot. So ex-
sctly are those scenes depicted that
the auditor becomes in fancy
a contemporary of the dreadful events
hieh ushered in the present century.
I .s peculiar and chief beauty consists
in its representation of the Irishman
in the light ot learning and genius ,
qmlitiea seldom attributed to him In '
modern plays. | Nor does It forget the
rollicking Irish lad and his witty say
ings , but It aspjgns him his grope ?
plac ? . Its great success ia New York
where It was played for one hundred
consecutive nights attests itu worth.
That it will receive a propar interpre
tation by the Ivanhoe's , and meet
with a warm reception by the people
of Omaha , Is beyond doubt.
M'KINNEYS ' CASE ,
His Examination Before Judge
Hawes Yesterday
Atternoon
The police court zoom v aa filled
yesterda aftembon by n orewd of
curious and anxious listener * , who
closely watched every step in the ex
amination of Stephen McKinney on
the charge of criminal intimacy with
a Rirl named Ada L. Shanks , who is
said to be McKipney's niece. In an
swer to the reading of the charge file-
Ktnney pleaded not guilty , and Ada
L. Shanks also pleaded not guilty.
J. S. Carey , 110 Twelfth street ,
was sworn , and teatihed that defend
ants came to hla house and wished to
rent room and board , which they ob
tained. They came there about the
13th or 10th of January , and remain
ed about all weeka. Vhile there
they occupied the room.
Mies Dora Crane , who woiks for
Gary , swore that she saw the defend
ants. They eame to Mr. Gary's home
and asked for bread. 1'feey ' took a
rocm , but it would bo impossible to
know whether they roomed together
or not , and didn't RO in there. I
never heard them eay anything about
the relationship , except Miss Shanks
say that McKinney was her husband.
Dapnty Mawhal Ben Westerdahl ,
aworn , said that ho went after Mc
Kinney with the requisition and ar
rested him. He said nothing to me
about the young lady , except to lay
that aha was his nieca. He also said
that ho hnd corresponded with , the
sire.
Marahal Westerd hl was sworn ,
and shown a letter , which he said he
answered , directing to J. S. McKin-
noy. After directing the letter and
mailing it I recaived another letter.
Counaol for the state ofFerdd to In
troduce a letter from McKinney to
the msrahal , but objection was made.
After McKinney arrived in Onaha he
said to me that he didn't anticipate
any trouble from the letter. I ar
rested Miss Shanks. I had some con
versation with her before her arrest on
Douglas ] street , over Cjpt Pierson'a
saloon. Counsel for the defense ob
jected to testimony on the subject of
the girl's confession.
BANG ! BAM ! BANG !
Where'and by Whom the Birds
.Are Being Shot
The O.niha Sportsman's Club start
out this morning in pairs to daughter
the innocents , and compete with each
other in bringing in gnmo , probably
without limit. A thron dya' siege i
before the sportsmen , and it Trill do
all of them credit if they hold out
against the anotr and mud for that
length of iime.
Among those who met at the club
rooms over Potty's stoco on Douglas
street this morninc and registered ,
the following named gentlemen will
hunt in pairs and have chosen their
respective points of attack upon the
geese and ducks : Captain W. J. Lard
and Z. T. Sprigg will hunt at
Hangera lakes , near the cut
off on the Platte bottom.
General Crook nnd John Pettyjire
going together bn the Elkhorn or
Platte bottoms near the Elkhorn.
Goodly Brooker , together with Geo.
T. Mills , hunt at Applebae's lake ,
near the Elkhorn. William Krug
aud M. W. Kennedy will hunt for
geeao at Rogers Station , on the Union
Pacific railroad. Henry Homan and
"Yank" Hathaway will hunt on the
Bellevue bottoms. John nnd Rich
ard Wlthnoll will probably go to
Stillwater Lake , an3 J. Budd will co
ID Herman station. It is confidently
expected that the big will be most un
precedented , and the three days siege
will undoubtedly carry terror to wine
fields of game.
Good Weather Coming.
The signil service office in this city
reports as the result of its observation ? ,
that the indications for good weather
ara favorable , there being a rising
and clearing barometer. A few days
of sunshine at least may bo reasonably
hoped for.
Shot by A ccident.
Thomas McHn b , living on Twelfth
street , accidentally shot himself on
Monday , the ball entering his leg in
the fleshy portion , striking the bone ,
