A PUT-UP JOB.
John Piorson Seems Willing
to Perjure Himeelf
for Fifty Dollars.
Ho HimfloH Arrested for As
saulting and Robbing
Mrs. Hubbard ,
Snoddoriy IB Sot -Proo and Piorson
Takoa His Placo.
Nearly all of Saturday was taken
up by Judge Aylosworth in hearing
evidence in the caao of Jim Snodderly ,
charged with nssaulting and robbing
Mrs. Hubbard on Monday evening of
last week.
John Pioraon , who "gave away"
Snoddoriy , or who pretended to ,
scorns to have miulo sorry work of it.
Ilia story aa told on the stand was
that he ovprhonrd Snoddoriy talking
to Godfrey in frontof the "Blue Jay , "
nnd heard Snodderly say , "I'm bound
to have it if there is five dollars in it. "
Pioraon , after buying Borne bread and
ten , started homeward up Madison ,
and on nearing Pierce street flaw
Snoddoriy atanJing talking with
another follow. As ho turned the
corner into Pierce street ho hoard the
other follow toll Snoddoriy , "Well , if
that is what you are going into I don't
want anything to do with it. I
wouldn't go into it for a thousand del
lars. Snoddoriy then said , "There's
the lady now. " Picrson saw the lady
come along and Snoddoriy follow her ,
and ho followed after them , stopping
at the corner to drop his bundles over
the fence into the yard. Piorson
watched Snoddoriy until ho saw him
knock the woman down , snatch her
money and run. Suoh was the story
told by Piorson. Ho did not toll any
of this until after the reward of $50
was offered , and everything points to
the fact that it was the hope of reward
that induced him to make up a yarn
to convict Snoddoriy.
A young follow named Alton testi01
fiod that Piorson told him that if ho
would go down to the police headquarters -
quarters and swear against Snoddoriy
that ho could got half of the reward ,
nnd that "twonty-Gvo dollars is a
pretty big thing now-o-days. " Allen
told him ho didn't know anything
about the affair , and wouldn't troar
that ho did.
Godfrey admitted that ho was with
Snoddoriy on the night of the assault ,
but that ho know nothing about the
affair. He mot Snoddoriy at the
"Blue Jay" saloon , but heard Snod
doriy say nothing about the robbery.
Ho made no such remark as that
claimed to have boon heard by Pier-
son. Ho and Snoddoriy wore together
from about o'clock in the evening un
til nearly 1 o'clock. They wore drink-
Ing , playing cards , etc. , at different
saloons.
Another bad feature to Piorson's
story is that Mrs. Hubbard did not
take take tee route which [ Piorson do
scribes. Instead of going on Fierce
street , where Pioraon says ho saw
Snoddoriy following her , , she wont
straight up Broadway to Stutaman ,
and turned straight up to her homo. *
This gives Pieraon the direct lio.
In view of , these facts it become
evident that there was not enough
proof that Snoddoriy committed the
dastardly deed , and the court dis
charged hiraj Ho ia a hard citizen ,
but m this case ho scorns to have boon
justly released. As to Piorson , it
seems that ho either put the job on
Snoddoriy for the purpono of getting
the $50 reward , or plso for- the purpose -
pose of shielding himself or covering
up some facts with which ho was con
versant. Accordingly , after Snod
doriy had boon sot free , a warrant war
issued for Piorson'a arrest , and ho wax
locked up , not being able to giro the
$000 bond required for his appear
ance.
The authoritos Boom determined , if
possible , to got at the bottom fact * in
this case and bring the real offender
to justice , and the boldness and bru-
trality of the critno arouses a general
wish that the guilty party may got Ills
just closnrts , and that , too , right
Bpoedily.
WOMEN "WILL tiHOOT.
Mro. Crawford Blazoa Away at Bur
glars An Irate Lady Arma Her-
eelf For a Walk on Oroadway.
There has of late boon so many
deeds of deviltry committed hero that
the women are tukimr up arms in
their own defense. At least throe
attempts havn boon nmdo during the
past ton days to burglarize Mr.
Crawford's residence. Ho being
a
away from homo , his wife concluded
that she must protect horaolf as best
she could , and accordingly secured a
revolver , and on the last of the throe b
attempts eho used it , but with what
results is not known as yet. She
hoard some ono at work on the
first floor , the noise being such A
as would naturally come from mi at (
tempt to turn the key with a pair of
nippers. She waited unfit she was
satisfied that burglars worp there at
work and then she fired tnico in rapid
succession , both bullets going through
the door. From iho sudden exclama
tion and hasty edt from the yard she
thought that she must have hit some
body , but no assurance has yet boon is
found that such was really the case.
The attompta to enter the house will
probably now bo suspended ,
Saturday evening a respectable lady
while on her way to the etoro where
she is acoustoiued to purchase her
rooorios , was rudely accosted on
liroodway by two ruffians , Instead
of fainting andjscrcaming , olio easily
walked back to her homo and armed
herself with a revolver , and again
came dawn Broadway , and as she
stopped into a store to make some
purohaaos , she informed the merchant
showed her valiant weapon of do-
fooso , and calmly remarked that aliu
would like to have those follows in-
insult her again that way ,
Sorno of these rutllans who roll up
uid down the streets insulting respec
table ladies will got a dote of load
from Bomo irate and plucky woman ,
and , if so , it will servo ks a quietu * on
good many.
. Prohibition a Failure.
In opening my case I had intended
to introduce witnesses first from
Maine , but a recent letter front the
Ilov. Richard Ciordloy , of Emporia ,
Kansas , hits led mo to place him upon
the stand.
"Mr. Cordloy , will you bo good
enough to state to the people of Iowa
what you know of the working of the
prohibitory law in your statol"
"Tho opponents of the law have
made it a point to create the im
pression that ( ho law is n failure.
pli
Every unfavorable report has boon
sent to the winds , and repeated over
and over again. A newspaper re
porter goes into a Kansas town ,
lie is taken in hand by the initiated
and filled with boor and falsehoods.
Ho reports to his journal the next
morning that "liquor is just ns free
in that town as over it was. " Whereas ,
if ho had not been well known anc
well introduced , ho would have gone
homo as dry M the western plains are
said to bo. A case of drunkenness is
reported in n local paper a aolitary
case , wlio'ro before such things wore ol
daily occurrence. It is copied everywhere -
where as "ono of the fruits of prohi
bition. " As a specimen of these manu
factured stories , a pupor , usually con
sidered reliable , stated a short time
since , that " 40,000 people had re
moved from Kansas into Mis
souri on account of the passage -
sago of the prohibitory law"
why they should leave Kansas , if the
law was without effect , the paper did
not stop to explain , but made the
statement as if from actual knowl
edge. The fact is , nobody had loft
the state on this account , except a
few dealers who had taken their stock
of liquor over the line into Missouri.
For this Missouri has our sympathies.
" What is their loss is our gain. "
But , Mr. Cordly , is there not some
foundation for these reports ?
Yes , there is. In three or four of
our larger towns it has boon mostly
ignored. Lcavcnworth voted heavily
against the law , elected officials who
wore known to oppose it , and they
hayo so far evaded its provisions. The
same is true of Atchison and ono or
two other newer towns. At Lawrence
and Topeka there have boon moro ef
forts at enforcement , but not with
marked success. The difficulty has
been with witnesses and jurors.
Some leading men , supposed to bo
honorable men , have advised witnesses
and jurors to perjure themselves to
defeat the law. As a result of such
teaching , men who have been aeon
drinking liquor will swear they did
not know what it was they drank ; and
jurors in a perfectly plain case of
guilt will vote to "ncquit" and the
jury disagrees. This thing will bo
reached after a while. The next
movement will bo to put a few of
those perjurers in the penitentiary
and this obstruction will bo removed.
These four towns are the best known
olvi any in the state. Strangers always
visit them ; newspapers always report
thorn J , and they are taken to represent
the state. But they are not the state
by any moans. In the great body of
the state the law is onfnrcod as well as
any ono expected it would be. "
What war the effect of the effort to
have the law declared unconstitutional ?
"During the several weeks this ques
tion was before the supreme
court the saloons everywhere opened
and boldly defied the law.
They were sustained in this by the
National Brewers' association , who
were ready to spend any amount of
money to break down the law. After
Iho court had declared the law valid ,
it was no easy matter to upset the
traffic which had taken advantage of
the doubt. "
How docs the law work in your own
town , Emporia ?
"Here it required ono prosecution
after another until the saloons were
closed. The most obstinate and wily
dealer was convicted only a short time
since. Most of the saloons wore closed
within a week after prosecutions com
menced. There is doubtless some se
cret selling here , but only the initia
ted know whoro. "
Mr. Oordloy's evidence will bo con
cluded in our next.
L. W. TOLLKYS ,
Arrest of a Train Kobbor.
National Associated Frew.
ST. Louis , March 18 A special
from Independence , Mo. , says a tu
mult of excitement was occasioned
this morning by the arrest of John
Mott on the charge of complicity in
the Chicago & Alton robbery at Blue
Out last September. Mott resides in
the immediate vicinity of the robbery
and since that time has boon telegraph
operator at Glendale , a short distance
from Blue Out. The cose was worked
up and the arrest made by United
States Detective W. W. Gorham ,
who says ho , haa po.itivo proof of
Mott's guilt. Ho has boon working
up the case for some time. , and when
preliminary examination is had he
says startling developments will re
sult. The public have long simple-
ionod Mott , but evidence could not
bo obtained which would warrant his
arrest. Gorham is the detective who
displayed such wonderful shrewdness
in working the Waggoner murder case
at Knnsaa City a few months ago.
date for Mott'a preliminary exam *
nation will bo fixed this afternoon.
BOKUI Mortgage Operations' .
National Associated J'rtss.
DETIIOIT , Mich. , March 10. Up to
the present iiour no definite develop
ments have boqn made in the recent
discovery concerning Nairns' bogus
mortgage operations at Adrian. It \
known , however , beyond question
that thu Olark estate hold at least
bogus mortgages negotiated by Nairns
to the amount of 862,000. There is
good reason to think further investi
gation will show that the loss of the
estate will ageregato 890,000. Start
ling rumors are alloat , that other
Adrian capitalists and corporations
have invested in thcso fraudulent se
curities. The Olarks still rot USD to
muko A complete statement , but say
they have got all they want of it \
The records and other sources of in
formation are being thoroughly
searched to laid the full extent of
Nairna' operations. All banks of the
city claim that they are not involved
and are perfectly sound.

The Proceeds from the Sale of a Pair
of Mul OB Also Gono.
A man named Maxwell , who had i
pair of mules for ale , found a cua
tomcr for them last week , who was to
pay him ? 260 on delivery. Mr. 3I&T-
well brought the mules to Maaon
Wiso'a barn , and the purchaser waste
to got them of him there. A man
named Frank Smith , who has served
for ootno time as foreman of the barn
know the circumstances , and when
the purchaser came the owner of the
mules was not on hand , and Smith
took the $250and delivered the mules.
Soon after receiving the money ,
Smith remarked that ho had to go
over to the bank , and otopping out ,
haa failed to step in again. This was
on Saturday morning , and since that
time no trace of him has been found.
The idea of his having mot with foul
play has nothing to sustain it , and
licnco the only apparent explanation
for Smith's ' abscnco is that ho has become -
como so attached to the $250 that ho
has olopcd with it.
Mr. Wise disclaims all responsibility
in the matter , as ho never has author
ized Smith to transact business for
him , he having his money matters
and books in the hands of another
man. Smith's duties were simply to
look after the work nbout the barn ,
and to servo as foreman during Mr.
Wise's absence , as on this occasion.
Mr. Maxwell , who left the mules
there , dotiies that ho gave Smith any
authority to receive the money for
the mules should the purchaser como
during his absence , so it seems that
Smith took the money of his own ac
cord and has appropriated it to his
own uses. A search is being made to
ascertain his whereabouts , but thus
far without success.
