The Load Found in the Victim' *
Spinal Column-
The details of the shooting affair
which occurred at the Occidental
hotel on the evening of Thanksgiving
day are still fresh in the minds of our
readers. For two days the fate of the
wounded man remained uncertain ,
Paralysis of the limbs followed imme
diately cf ter his removal to the St.
Joseph hospital , but as ho was rather
cheerful and had'a powerful constitu
tion it was thought possible that ho
might survive the shot , the exact
character of which it was impossible
to ascertain.
KBEUMNd EXl'IUED ,
however , at 3 p. m. Saturday , after
hours of delirium and intense agony ,
and in the evening bo was removed to
Jacobs' undertaking rooms and a post
mortem and inquest ordered for yes
terday. The post mortem was held
about noon , being conducted by Dr.
Ayers , assisted by other physicians.
The examination was very full and
complete , and the result briefly sum
med up was that
THE BULLET ,
thirty-eight calibre , was found , to
have struch the collar bono just be
neath the spot usually covered by a
collar button , to have passed in an
upward direction and backward
toward the base of the skull , cutting
the windplpo in two places and
lodging on the spinal cord , at the sixth
cervical vertebrae. The conical end
of the ball was flattened out , had
broken the bones to some extent and
had carried a small scrap of the cloth
ing clear through with it , which was
found with the bullet by the aurgoon.
THE INQUEST
took place at 4 p. m , , and was nol
latgely attended. The state was rep
resented by District Attorney Bum-
ham , and the dofonsu by Colonel E.
F. Smytho. Just after the examina
tion nf witnesses begun , Deputy

THE CANFIELD'S CHANGE.
A New Landlord Takes Charge of trie
HOUBO To-Day.
A change In the management of the
Oanfiold house , ono of the most popu
lar hotels in the state , is announced to
take place to-day.
Hon. George Oanfiold , who has
built the house up to its present envi
able position in public esteem , will , it
in understood , retire from the active
management of the place , andD. 8. M ,
Frotwoll , the well known auctioneer ,
will hereafter control the destiny of
the hotel , at lease for some time. The
duties which will devolve upon Mr ,
Oanfiold by reason of his election to
the highest legislative body in the
state , and the urgent demands upon
his attention from a couple ot fine
ranches ho owns up in the country
would prevent his giving that care to
the running of the Oaniield house
which has always made such a pleas
ant home for all guests. Ho has there
fore disposed of a half interest to Hr.
Fret well , who will no doubt maintain
the high standard at present hold by
the houso.
The new firm will be Oanfiold &
Frot\voll , but tfio name of the house
will remain the same , George and
Mrs. Oanfiold will continue to make
the homo their homo whil oin the city ,
and with lira Canfiold'n presence it
will always bo a home to the traveler.
Good luck to the now management ,

Such is the Sentence of Judge
Pound in the Plattsmouth
Murder Case ,
Meteor's Murderer Sentenced
to Die March 16th ,
The Plattsmouth murder trial ,
which began on Tuesday last was
concluded Friday evening when the
jury found the prisoner , John II.
Polin , guilty of murder In the first
degroo. It only remained for the
court to paaa sentence , which wasdono
on Saturday , the sentence being
death , and the data of execution being
vnot for March 10th next.
The murder , it will bo remembered ,
grow out of Polin'a jealousy of P. J.
Meteor , whom ho suspected of illicit
intimacy with his wife. Mrs Polin
aad Meteor both visited the State fair
in this city , after which Mrs. Polin
went over into Iowa on a visit to
friends. She was supposed to have
written a letter to Metecr during her
absence , which her husband was de
termined to have , oven if it cost the
life of his supposed rival. He , there
fore , on the 7th cf October , called
Motecr into hia restaurant , and after
demanding the misaivo in vain , shot
his victim through the head , the
wound proving fatal in a few hours.
The defense pleaded was temporary
insanity , and during the trial Polin
swore very positively aa to the facts
occurring up to the time of entering
the restaurant with Meteor , but main-
tanced an absolute ignorance of 411
that took place afterward. At the
conclusion of the trial the counsel for
the defense moved for a now trial , but
this was overruled.
It is stated that the woman who
witnessed the murder , being the cook
at the restaurant and who was the
.principal witness for the state , is very
much overcome by the verdict
and sentence , taking it oven
harder than the wlfo of the murderer ,
as she feels that her testimony is what
will coat him hia lifo. It is reported
she will circulate a petition praying
the governor to commute the sentence
to imprisonment tor life.
The man under seutonco of death is
about 33 years of ago and has a wife
and throe children.
