Big uor nud Macrae wera uncertain M to the question of the danger to bp ap prehended from the wound received. After lingering through the night the victim died about 8 o'clock Baturday morning , . Coroner Jacobs was notified and wont down to the residence during the forenoon , and niado arrangements to iold an inquest at 4 p. in. Dr. Rigger was engaged to hold u post norttun examination at 2 o'clock , the nquoil being postponed until the late lour named on account of the impoa- ibility < > / ipcuring ( ho attendance of the witnessed from the other oidn until that time. So far as can bo explained at pres ent , it may bo said as to the nature of the wound which caused the fatal re sult , that the bullet entered the right pirt of what is termed the lumbar muscles. It had lodged under the akin at a point directly opposite the left side , and it is aa supposed that the bullet had taken its course be tween the muscles of the abdomen until its force was spent , and it lodged as is indicated. The result , however , would go to show that this was not the case , and that it must have passed through the walls of the abdomen and out on the opposite sido. Mr. Styles has been married twice , his first wife being a sister to Mrs. Captain Marsh. By his first wife hu two children , the young man alluded to Saturday a daughter who is mttr ried and no vv resides in Boston. lie married his second wife , who is tht sister of Mrs. William Umpherson , on thn 4th of last month , Tno Nonpaieil of Saturday pub lishes an account whictm undoubted ! } the statement of Van Masonand from which the re parts appears to bo in eii- tire conflict with that published above , which is the statement of three or four witnesses each taken separately and from present appearances would seem to bo the correct history of the deed. The Council Bluff * reporter of TUB BKB sends us by telephone the follow ing report of the proceedings over there Saturday , from which it will bo seen that Van Mason haa been dis charged. Without knowing what course the authorities will taku it seems probable that he will be rearrested - rested , now that Styles has died , and he may yet have a serious time in get ting out of this trouble. The witncssebjworo examined Satur day by Judge Aylesworth and Yan Mason was tmablo to bo present , his injuries confining him to bed. T. D. Brown , of Oakland , Gal. ; J. A. Brown , of Mount Vernon , In. ; W. B. Carpenter , of Marion , la. ; John Norman , the special policeman at the trantfer , and Win. Dale , of Palmyra , Mo. , were sworn. The evidence showed that Styles had kicked Yan Mason out of the Emigrant house , and was still thump ing him , when Van Mason turned and knocked Styles down with his fist. Yan Mason started toward the depot and Styles gottiug the poker folio wed ; then van Mason tried to got away , but Styles overtaking him raised the poker and as ho struck Yan Mason the latter shot. Both clinched and the second shot was fired and they fell together. Mr. Stott , attorney for the state , moved that the defendant bo dis charged , and the court so decided , remarking that from the evidence the shooting appeared justifiable. 5JTE KXTENT'OV VAN MASON'S INJURIES. Bo is cut. upon the loft side of his head about two and a half or three inches in length , and clear through tone no skull ; there is no fracture of the skull , however , There is another slight wound upon the loft thigh.

Probable Settlement of the Union Pacific and Burling ton Difficulty. News from Various Sources Con- cernlnK TraVel and Traffic. The enterprising managers of the "Groat Burlington Route" have finally made satisfactory arrangement whereby - by they will bo enabled to do their passenger business in Denver nt the Union depot. Commencing July 1st through passenger trains will run be tween Denver , Omaba and Ohioigo , without the great annoyance caused by chancing cars. Round trip tickets will bo placed on sale from July 15th until September 25th from Missouri points to Den ver , Colorado Springs and Pueblo , good to return October 31at. _ The rates by this route will be as cheap as by any other in the union , and a daily train will be run , which will give the local travel facilities which they have never enjoyed before. ItUKLINOTON AND CNION PACIFIC. The Chicago Times of Friday says : Mr. T. J. Potter , General Man ager of the Chicago , Burlington A Quincy railroad , is still in Denver. It is understood that he is holding a con ference wih the officers of tha Union Pacific with a view of bringing about a satisfactory traffic arrangement on business west of the Missouri river. \ The prospects for an amicable settle- \1 menc of the Colorado traffic difficul ties arisii'g ' from the 'Completion of Burlington's Denver line have much improved during the l.ut few days , and it is now predicted that every thing will be satisfactorily settled be tween the Burlington and UnionPaci- fic roads before many days have ptas- ed. Neither the Burlington nor the Union Pacific desires any war at pres ent , and both will make concessions to avoid a serious conflict. If the roads west of the Missouri river settle . , * their difficulties , thpro will probably r bo no great trouble in reorganizing the Colorado pool between the roads east of the Missouri river. CONVENTION RATK8. Arrangements are being made for a convention of the druggists of the state to bo hold in Lincoln June 21.

The board of trade rooms have boon secured for the occasion , and the Lincoln drug gists will do everthing in their power to render thn convention successful and agreeable to all who attend. The project of forming a state association of druggists is a very laudable one and should bo waamly seconded by the men of the profession throughout thestato. NBHHASKA JIBDUCUONS.
