CAUGHT ON THE FLY
A B , & ; M. Clerk Attempts
to Embezzle Punds of '
the Company ,
But is Arrested at the Depo
While Preparing to
Leave Town.
*
He Confesses to the Crime anc
is Held for Examination.
Mr. Rollin H. N. Kelly , clerk ir
the general ticket office of the Bur
licgton & Missouri River railroad
was arreetod at the U. P. depot a
about noon Friday by Officer Blackj
charged with the embezzlement of s
largo sum of money from the B. & M.
railroad company. A pert of the monej
was found in his possession and he
confessed to the offence. He was ar <
raigned In police court , waived exam
ination , and was committed.
Mr. Kelly had been in the employ
of the B. & M. railroad company
for about eighteen months , having
bsen previous to that time in the
city treasurer's office. He was for
merly a farmer In Saunders county
and was a man of very genial temper
ament and formed many friendships.
It has been noted of late that he was
apparently living beyond the
means of a young -man with
a salary of only $75 pe ;
month , and it Is presumed the rail
road company has had its suspiciont
excited. uAttvny rate it was decidec
to check up his accounts a day or two
ainceto ascertain their correctness.
Under , ordinary clrcumstajicea thU
would have baen only a matter oi
fact proceeding , but in this case It at
once forcad the young man to some
action to conceal the defects whieh
be was aware hi accounts would showj
or e'scapa the unpleasant teanlts. The
worU of checking up his accounts was
notcompletedThursday.'but1 it was
understood it would be finished this
morning. Thursday , the 4 mbney in
bis cash box > ras counted by himself
aud Mr. 0. D.-Freeman , who has
charge of the ticket auditing depart
ment in Ticket Auditor Dorman's of
fice. There was $380 in the box ,
which was of tin , closed with a Yale
ock , of which Mr. Kelly had the key.
Yesterday- . "Kelly cent' word to
, he office that _ he was sick and
did not come down. A boy wan
sent to hisTeaidenca to get the key
to the tush box ; Mr. Kelly sent
jack word that- the key was in pos
session of Mr. Yale , a clerk in the
general ticket office. Mr. Yule stated
that he had noirxcen the key , when it
was decided to break the box open
And it was .found that the money was
missing.
It at once became evident that Mr.
Telly was a defaulter , and precautions
were lit once taken for his arrest.
Jr. Freeman found him at the depot ,
apparently intending to take the U.
? . train for the west. He had a
package under his arm containing the
funds. Officer Black arrested him ,
and ho at once confessed to having
a large sum of money in hli posses
sion. The amount was found to be
§ 1031.79 in cash and notes
Ho was immediately taken to the
Police Oourt. O'Brien & Bartlett ap
peared for the B. & M. railroad com-
> any. Kelly was nearlf crazy with
grief and threatened at first to kill
ilnuelf. "Oh ! my wife and children !
my wife and children ! " he cried.
He has a splendid family and the
causes which have driven him to this
step cs.n only be guessed at. There
s no doubt , however , that he had for
some time been leading a fast life.
1AIEH FACTS.
The following statement of the facts
s obtained from a B. & M. official ,
and ia correct : _
Kelly was clerk and cashier in the
general ticket office. 'There has been
a suspicion that he was not doing
what "was right. , The auditor
iroceeded to check up Tiis ac-
ounta and found some shortages. On
becking up hta accounts last night
he auditor left some four hundred
dollars to be turned in by Kelly to the
treasurer. This morning he com
ilained of being nnwell and
eft for his heme. He was
ollowed and found about
to board a train at the tJ. P. depot
with & package that on examination
was found to contain currency and re
mittances of drafts , checks andcashre-
elred in the office for the last 10 days ,
11 in his possession , amounting to
bout § 1000 , which he was'about to
any nfL He was arrested and taken
> efore the police court. Evidence
was so slrong no defence was made ,

One Inhuman Wretch Who
Should Feel the Arm
of the Law.
Important Meeting of the
Nebraska S. P. O , A.
Certain facto came to the etr of a
BEE reporter yesterday , which will
perhaps be found interesting to the
Nebraska S. P. C. A. They are vouch
ed for by men whose word la un
doubted , and though the party's name
was not learned , it could very easily
be obtained. If a raoro aggravated
case of cruelty to animals ever occur
red , it did not come to the notice of
TBB BEE :
On Tuesday last a man was observ
ed by several pwBers-by to-leave St.
Mary's avenue , at the earner of Eigh
teenth itroet , and advance to a tree
a few reds north of the avenue.
The individual was Radius a
dog and carrying a gan , aud after
reaching the tree ho tied a rope
around the animal'a neck , fastened
him to the trunk , aud f stepping n
fa wyards away The gun
was loaded with small bird shot ,
and instead of killing the animal they
simply caused him the most intense
toiture , and ha howled and begged
plteonaly , while the inhuman- brute
calmly loaded his gan with 'anothez
charge cf the bird shot and again
pointed it at the dog. The dog had
been loosely tied , however , and
dodged behind the tree. Tha man
changed his position , but the dog
did likewise , in tbo meantime whin
ing and begging aa if ho had 'been : t
human being. At last the
murderer for there could ba littlf
doubt that such a brute only heeded
' and opportunity to become one
advanced to the trea for the pur
pose of shortening the rope. The
dog groveled on the ground , lickedhla
assassin's feet , and made an appeal
for his life which was quite as touch
ing and piteous as a human "bolng
could have made under similar circum
stances. At last the rope wng short
ened and again the attempt \rr.a made
to shoot the dog , but the animal once
more succeeded in getting bsbind the
tree. A few stops , however , truuiid
np the rope , and passing further round
the tree the assissia planted another
load of shot in the animal's -body.
The dog fell to the ground , not' jet
dead , but no longer nblo to appeal ioi
his lifo. The brute , in t'.o ' guise of
a man , gazed at the dog'n iaozn t
and then went tway.
An individual who had scan the
transaction Trout to r. neighbor's resi
dence and procuring a gun pat an end
to the dog'a suffering's.
MEETING OF THE SOCIETY.
- A special meeting of the Nebraska

agent , and the following were made

Mrs. J. W. Savage , Mrs. P. L
Parrine , Mrs. J. W. Wocdworth ,
Mrs. JohnT. Ball , and Mrs. O. F.

The committee will collect the funds
which are now due , and also solicit
such contributions as the pnblic will

petent man , to look after the interests
of the soc'ety.

sive. Aa the gang progresses along
Sixteenth street with the main pipe ,
the pipe will be laid in the lateral
streets east. Thia * 1U bring the pipe
layers into the business part of the
city in , a fewjay8'
The pfce is placed five feet bolon
the pfde line of the street. In placet
iraero the grade will require cuts thii
brings the pipes at a considerable
depth. Where streets are below the
grade line the pipes will beplaced lov

Ihe water works company will al

ing.- Each piece of pipe has a weight
of 1,693 pounds , and ia handled
with' a tackle , by which they are
balanced and suspanded from the
middle and san be laid accurately ,
forming a perfect joint. A lead
furnace accompanies each gang and
ihe joint is made complefe by filling
the interstice between the outer nurface
of the one pipe and the Inner sur
face of the other withnr oUan lead ,
which ia aftorcrard pouuded until
the main becomes as perfect as a
single Dlece of matal. These mains
are submitted to a hydrostatic pres
sure , of 300 pounds to the square
inch befcro being shipped from the
manufactory.
The main pipe , will pass through
Cumtng , Sixteenth , Dodge , Fif

Wah Lee is a good nuturod China
man , who keeps a laundry on Tenth
street , next to the Green Tree hotel.
Yesterday afternoon a colored man ,
who had some clothing there , went
after his Roods. Ho refused to pay
wbat Wah Lee charged him , and start
ed ont with ihe clothing under his
crro. The Chinaman ran after him
and caught him by the coat , and with
the assistance of two Chinese heloers
pulled the reluctant debl or bick into
the shop. One cf the Chinamen then
rushed Into a back room and procured
a meat , axe , while another sailed out
with pigtail streaming in the air for a
policeman. The fellow made up his
mind he had a bad bargain and gave
up the goods , when peace reigned
again in the neighborhood of the ce
leatial washing establishment.
