THE SNELL TKA3EDY ,
Wa.it It nn Accident or n Murder.
Special Correspondence Lincoln Journal.
Not since the yet unexplained shoot'
ng of Col. Watson B. .Smith has there
> ccurrcd in Omaha , if , indeed , in Nobras <
ca , an aflair possessed of so much melan
choly mystery as the death of the woman
called Jessie Snoll , on the night of Satur-
lay , the lth ! ) inst. There are not want-
ng witnesses of the shot which killed
icr ; there are many and anxious assor-
ions that it was accidental ; but to the
mind forming conclusions from prool
only , to him interested in the mystoriee
of psychology , in this case whore scarce ! }
a witness is entitled to credence for hie
own sakp , there is room for doubt and
peculation.
It is allodged that vrhilo the pistol was
> dinted towards the man Snoll. who hold
t , the young woman now dead seized it
> y the muzzle and caused its discharge
nto her own breast ; that the great afluc-
ion for a long time hold toward".Icssio , "
> y Snoll , proclucdostlio idea of shooting
ntcntional on his part.
I have said that in this case the wit-
icBaos are scarce worthy of crcdonco.
'Major" Croft , under whoso roof the
ragody was consummated , was formerly
Methodist preacher. lie has , in con-
orsation , and maintained in his oxamin-
ition , a ejuiot and [ ontlcmanly demeanor ;
iis eye is clear ; his facobears no outward
ividouco of iniquity ; his hair has that
raniiiil | whiteness which reverential
> ooplo have regarded as a crown of glory ,
) ut no ono has printed or spoken a word
if this man but onoof loathing and hatred ,
tameless and numberless deeds of shame
ro charged by the popular voice to his
ccount. A painful and , to the obscr-
ant , unconcoalablo anxiety to establish ,
> y force of reiteration , the unintcn-
ipnality of the killing appeared to occupy
iis mind when before the coroner's
ury.
ury.To this end admonitory shakos of the
< oad and meaning looks were available
ij * the "major's" fourteen year old son
when the latter was testifying. Tlio son
was twisted into an unwilling admission
, hat the weapon was in Snoll's liande
when discharged. The statement is nol
mportant evidence. The anxiety tc
icroou excites suspicion. The "major1
lad professional interest in lessoning the
atrocity of the crime. The moro accidon
al it could bo shown to bo the less of r
"hell hole" his retreat might bo considered
orod by that lawless and unreasoning
: reation of rhetoric , the same no twe
lours in the day "tho public morality.1
Whatever other interest ho may havi
lad , wo cannot know. The expression ;
of grief of the bereaved young man , hii
desire to provide for the funeral expenses
cannot count for much. They are ni
moro than a wilful murdorpr would certainly
tainly feign to mislead justice.
Ono would naturally suppose that th <
immediate circumstance of the shootinj
would have loft some rational and coho
rout recollections in the minds of tin
spectators , but their accounts are conllic
ting and inadequate. It is diflicult t <
imagine that when two persons won
wrestling with a revolver , and when , up
on its discharge between thorn , the oni
who is mortally wounded turns and lie
down to die , anyone should fail ti
come to the instant conclusion o
the terrible truth , But no ono appear ;
to have had a suspicion of it but the bo ;
who , the "major" "thinks , " said li
"thoughfaho was "hurt,1' ' no doubt hav
ing reference to her feelings.
Ono evidence wo cannot mistakebotl
hands of the woman were blackened b ;
the powder. This black and dismal wit
ness has no ax to grind and n <
friend to shield. There is no roasonabli
doubt that tlw hands were in front of th
muzzle of the pistol. They could no
have touched the hammer or the triggo
of the weapon , and , in time to have tiooi
blackened by the muzzle , retreated to thi
front of the barrel.
There are to-day holes in the clothe
of "Jossio" made long before this occurrence
ronco by the bullets of Snoll. She ha
said that when ho came down she woulc
not live long. There have boon men will
moro common sense and tear of God thai
cow-boys , who have , in a moment of rage
foiled to the earth a dearer object thai
this woman , of whoso character the les
said the bettor.
The testimony is unanimous to her fem
caresses of this man Snoll during th
evening ; that moro than once her arm
twined around him and her lips spok
tender words. There waa no trace o
disappointment ; and yet I thought tha
there might bo a melancholy moaning ii
that , after receiving that wound , she die
not cling to him in the agony of ai
irreparable blunder , or utter ono syllabi
of fond good.byo ; her trongth might no
have boon equal to this , but it was cqua
to her walking to the next room and ly
ing down to die alono.
Pel hops there had como to her a sonsi
of indiBcribablo horror of such a death
There is evidence that she came of gooc
family ; her foot are spoken of as vcn
small , her hair as brown and curling ; ho :
face as not unattractive. Her sister is t
largo landholder in Dakota. There is tin
utmost pathos iu a letter written her b ;
her mother. She regretted to hear of he

mniiulcr Kcsoucd In nn Almost
Mlblcss Condition.
Last evening , just before dusk , a traveler
olor attempted to drive a herd of cattli
across the Missoui i river at the foot o
Dodge street. Ho drove thorn upon tin
river at a point where ice had boon cu
and consequently it was somewhat weak
As the herd advanced the ice began t (
crack , and the cattle all huddled together
gothor , thereby breaking the ice nndth _ (
whole herd , twelve in number , were precipitated
cipitatod into the cold and turbid waters
Then commenced a struggle to save
thorn from drowning. The poor , fright'
onod and chilled boasts plunged in a wild
and ferocious manner , lashing the watoi
into a foam. They leaped upon and
against each other , and bleated in a most
pitiable manner. They inndo desperate
attempts to free themselves from their
perilous position by endeavoring to leap
upon the ice , but it broke as they approached
preached it.
In a short space of tiiuo , five of the
poor brutes succumbed and sank to the
bottom. After a desperate struggle , the
remaining seven were landed upon tlio
ice , dripping and exhausted , and it is
oven now questionable whdthor they will
survive their severe drenching.
People driving upon the river , at this
or any other point , while so many gangs
of ico-cuttors are at work , should bo very
careful that they do not drive upon some
spot from which ice has boon taken so re
cently as to make the now formation of
ice dangerous and insulliciont to sustain
the _ weight of a horse , or horses and
vehicle.

ord the following testimonial of respect
and esteem :
"In all our association with him our
brother manifested a strength of mind , a
jonorosity of judgment and a kindness of
liourt that drew us all to him. Ho hold
liis opinions firmly and advocated them
with ability ; yet ho was neither an ex
tremist nor a bigot. His creed
was scriptural and evangelical , and
ho defended it with a vigor that
did honor to his noble denomination ; yet
ho was over ready to acknowledge the
rights duo to individual conscience. In
the truest sense ho was sound as a
thinker : in the truest sense ho was liberal
oa a man. For more than a year lie pre
sided over our association , and uniformly
conducted the proceedings with skill and
dignity. While this church has lost an
able leader , his denomination a farsighted -
sighted advisor , and Christianity in general -
oral a most devoted and fearless friend ,
\vo have lost a tried brother. His family ,
his church , his denomination and our
selves wo commend to God ; and of us all

Ho Sustained A Frncturo ol' the
Shoulder nnd Other InjiirlcH
of a Serious Nature An
Accident.
Wednesday about five o'clock , as one
of Biondorfl's ' delivery teams was being
driven under the bridge on Thirteenth
street , an engine passed over the bridge ,
Tightening the team , which started to
run. The driver pulled back upon them ,
; hus throwing the polo of the wagon up.
A man by the name of D. A. Jensen ,
who was crossing the road at the time ,
was struck upon the temple by the end
of the polo and Knocked to the ground.
Uoforo the team could bo stopped they
tad trampled upon him.
_ Ho was picked up in nn insensible con
dition and carried into the coal oilico just
north of the bridge , and a doctor sum
moned. Upon examination it was found
; hat his right shoulder was broken , his
icael badly cut , his arm severely injured ,
and that ho had also sullorcd severe in-
cnml injuries.
After ho had been made as comfortable
as possible , ho was taken to his homo ,
near the corner of Tenth and Hickory
streets. A gentleman who saw him yes-
erday stated that ho had passed a very
miserable night and is in a very bad con
dition.
The young man who was driving the
cam at the time of the accident , drove
lurriedly to police court , but as Judge
3oncko had gone homo , ho hastened to
lie sheriffs oflico and ollbred to give
limself up. Ho stated that ho thought
ho ho had killed the man.
No blame is attached to the young
nan , as the team was unmanageable at
, hp time , and ho was putting forth every
effort to control them.
Thu injured man is a man of family ,
and , just at this season of the year the
accident is a dear ono for him.
