Gcorfic Rose Painfully Im'tired in the
Union Pacific Yards Yesterday
Morning ,

Trucks and .Jnck Screws
Have to bo Itacd toKx-
trlcnlo Him ,
A painful accident occurred in the up
per yards of the Union Pacific road yes
terday morning about 5:30 : o'clock ,
George Rose , a switchman , stopped In
between two cars to make n coupling , In
some way his foot slipped and ho was
thrown upon the track in such a manner
that the wheels of the forward truck of
an empty freight car panned over his
limbs. The car was thrown from the
track , and the wheels remained on top of
Hose
TINNING HIM TO THE OROUNI )
in such a manner that it was impossible
for him to extricate himself.
Help soon arrived and it was found
necessary to procure two jack screws and
place ono under either side of the car
and raise it up before ho could bo taken
out. IIo bore the torture bravely and
uncomplainingly until the work was com
pleted and he was lifted from the track
in a
MANGLED AND IIUIEDINO
condition and taken to St. Joseph's hos
pital. Drs. Uortzman and Galbraith
were summoned and were soon by the
injured man's ' sido.
At first it was thought that his right
arm and leg would have to bo amputated ,
but subsequent examination proved
that both might be saved. IIo was bad
ly bruised all over his body , liis face
was scratched and his body .was covered
with
FLEHH WOUNDS
but not necessarily of a norloua nature.
It was found that two of the toes upon
his right foot were fractured while his
right arm had sustained a compound
fracture. There was a bad gash in the
rectum made by a bolt or other blunt in
strument. Ho was fixed up nnd made as
comfortable as possible and the opin
ion of the physicians isthat ho will soon
recover.
The wounded man is about thirty years
of ago and unmarried. IIo has been in
the employ of the Union Pacific railroad
company about ono year and was regar
ded as ono of the best switchmen in thuir
employ. Ho was always attending to
business and a careful and competent
man.
FORTUNATE YARDS.
While the Union Pacific yards are very
extensive ones , they are among the most
fortunate ones in the United States.
There has not been a man killed in the
y&rds in this city since four years ago
last winter and very few have boon
injured.
Then taking into consideration the fact
that the yards are not level but are built' '
upon side hills , making it a very hard
matter to slop cars , it is indeed wonder
ful that more accidents do not occur.
The switchmen in this city are all steady
and very careful men , which , no doubt ,
accounts for the scarcity of accidents.

Special despatch tw the USE ,
WAUOO , May 20. The case of the
state against Hanloy was called up in the
district court to-dan amotion for

by the dofondaut'saflidavitstating thatfor
want of two material witnesses ( George
Forbes and John McClelland , of Omaha ) ,
who , if present , would testify that the
fight did not take place for a purse , ho
could not safely proceed to n trial. Di
rectly upon the close of the argument ,
Judge Post overruled the motion , hold
ing that a purse was not necessary under
statute to make an ofleuso. A motion
to quiet the indictment was then filed
by the defendant's attornops. The court
informed them that Hanloy had lost all
rights arising fr oin technicalities or in
formalities by entering his plea to the
indictments. The case was sot down

A Word of Warning.
Editor of The Boo.
Sr. JOSEIMI , Mo , , May 19 , I see in
your issue of the Oth inst , an article un
der the above caption , purporting to em
inato from some ladies of Omaha , charg
ing W , A. Pinkham and myself with
having swindled thorn. Knowing your
willingness heretofore to give every man
a chance to vindicate
himself , when as
sailed through your columns. I wish to
make as brief a statement of the facts as
possible.
_ ] came to Omaha from Chicago about
six weeks ago , and opened up a macrame
lace establishment in Orounso's block , I
carried on the business for a little over a
week , and then sold it put to Isaac Syl
vester and W. A. Pinkham , for 8150.
These men run the business for , I think ,
just two weeks , at which time they sold
the business to ono George Ditzonborgor
for $1DO. After I sold out to these men
I remained in Oiuuha for nearly two
weeks and savr that they filled their writ
ten contract with mo , which was to toaoh
all ladies macrame lace that I had
contracts with , so at the time
I left Omaha every lady that I agreed to
teach had completed her instructions and
had received material to work up from
Sylvester. After Sylvester purchased
the business , ho then advertised for more
ladies and nearly 100 responded to the
call and Sylvester took their money and
failed to do as ho agreed , Now ho tries
to hide his own fraud behind mo , as his
loiters to mo plainly provo. Sylvester
says in his loiter , if I will send him
825.00 ho will keep still , if not lib will
have mo arrested and published ; that it
would do him some good to get up a
newspaper stink. Now Mr. Editor , Mr.
Sylvester is the man , if any , who has
defrauded the Omaha ladies and not
mo. This ominntcd from Sylvester and
not from the ladies with whom I had
dealings or contracts. If Mr. Sylvester
wishes to sot himself right , na ho says , in
the estimation of the ladies of Omaha ,
lot him t orform his written contract with
them , also bis contract with mo , which I
hold now and can show them , and there
can bo no complaint with these ladies.
Now , Mr. Editor , I hope as you have
published the article of the Oth , that you
will give fair play , that nil may judge
for themselves who should shoulder the
blame. Yours , tc. ,

The City Marshal.
To The Kdltor of Tins UEB.
I see that the city marshal Is trying to
whitewash himself by a card published
in the Republican. Perhaps Mr. Guthrie -
rio can explain the following transac
tions.
Henry Birmingham , a pick-pockot and
member of a gang who were working the
street railway between the Depot and
Jackson street , during the state fair of last
year was arrested by Policeman Sigwart
and special policeman Davis on Sept.
llth. His confederates attempod to res
cue him and ono of the policemen re
ceived a cut on the head in the struggle ,
during which Birmingham broke away
and ran , but was retaken. On the way
to the jail ho confessed that ho was
a pick-pockot , ( a fact which papers on
his person attested ) , and ho olForod the
policemen $50 to release him , which
they refused. When the policemen caino
to court the next day to appear against
him , Judge Anderson told them that
the marshal had said the policemen had
made n mistake nnd there was no evidence -
donco against Birmingham and ho had
released him. When the policemen
asked the marshal how ho could know
there was no evidence against Birming
ham , when ho hud not waited to learn
what evidence they arrested him upon ,
the marshal told the policemen to go
about their business.
About six weeks ajioagang of bunkomon
opened a room on Eleventh street , in the
roar of Stubbondorf's. Ono of their first
victims was a man from Kearney and the
morning after ho was fleeced a private
detective wont to Marshal Guthrie and
told him that there was a gang of bunko
mon in the city. The marshal replied
that ho did not know it. The detective
assorted that ho could provo it and if the
marshal would accompany him or send a
policeman , ho would take him to the
place and point out the members of the
Hantj , and said that they had robbed a
man from Kearney on the night before.
The marshal declined to do anything to
ward hunting up or driving away the
gang , alleging that ho had no personal
knowledge of them. They remained in
the city at least two wooka longer , ope
rating without hindrance , and ior all
that is known by the police may bo hero
yet , OllHEKTEU ,
INSOLENT BOVOOriEUS.
How They Iiilicl Merchants That Re
fuse to bo Bled.
The refusal of some of our loading
merchants to submit to the demands
of the tramp printers , who are engaged
in the wholesale boycotting business , has
subjected them to the most outrageous
libels , which are calculated maliciously
for the purpose of damaging their busi
ness. Among these is Mr. N. B.
Falconer. A few days ago the Insolent
solicitor of the Boycotter called on Mr.
Falconer for a contribution and incident
ally admonished him to cancel his ad
vertising contracts with the BEE. Mr.
Falconer very politely informed him that
ho generally managed his own business
as ho dooms best to his own interests and
thought it was rather cheeky for
any outsider to meddle in
his private business affairs.
The next thing Mr. Falconer know his
name was paraded on the boycottcr'a
blacklist and his firm was charged with
being an open enemy of workingmen and
represented as having publicly declared
that they did not want the patronage of
working people. A more malignant f also
hood could not have boon penned.
Mr. Fulconor declares upon his honor ,
that such an expression was never thought
of by himself or his former partner , Mr.
Cruickshank , The firm has made no dis
tinction between their patrons. Thojwifa
or daughter of a poor man is just as cour
teously treated as the most fashionable
lady of the town , which fact can bo fully
attested by the employes of the concern.
This much must bo said in justice to
Mr. Falconer , who is not only an enter
prising business man , but ono of the
most liberal minded mon in Omaha.

SHOT IN THE STOMACH ,
A Serious Shooting Affray at theStosK
Yards Yesterday.
Mlko Murphy Shot In the Stomach
bylAVIIIInm Henry , n. Hoarding
. HOUNO Keeper.
Another addition to the long list of
Douglas county's crime was made yester
day , upon the grounds of the Union
stock yards' company , soulh of this city.
As far as can bo learned , it is in the
nature of n
OOLD-IILOOIIEI ) MUIUIKU ,
or at least an attempt at ono , and an at
tempt which may terminate as it was
intended that it should.
William Henry has boon keeping n
boarding-house out at the Union stock
yards , and Mike Murphy , ono of the
laborers , lias boon boarding with him.
Henry has bcon in the habit of flourish
ing his revolver and making
THREATS TO SHOOT ,
and had como to bo quito generally dis
liked throughout the camp.
Yesterday afternoon , aboub ono o'clock ,
ono of the mon who has been boarding
with Henry rushed into the boarding
house of D. H. Johnson , only a few rods
distant , and stated that
A MAN HAD BEEN SHOT
in Henry's house , and asked for assist
ance. Mr. William Hull , a carpenter ,
who was boarding with Johnson , at once
hurried to Henry's house , and there , in
a shod adjoining the house proper , found
Murphy lying upon the floor , and the
blood flowing from a
WOUND IN HIS STOMACH.
Howaa picked up , aiid a telephone mes
sage sent to this city to Dr. Stone , wheat
at once hastened to the scene to attend
the wounded man. At the same time a
telephone message was sent to the
sheriffs and Cro-
officer , Deputy-Sheriff -
well hurried to the place to secure the
man who had done the shooting.
Immediately after committing the
crime , Henry
LOCKED HIMSELF UP ,
in his house aud awaited proceedings.
When the deputy sheriff reached the spot
no resistance was o lib red , and ho was at
one a taken in custody and brought to
this city , where ho was locked up in the
county jail. Two young mon who were
boarding with Henry were present at the
time of the shooting , or at least were in
an adjoining room , and they also wore
brought in and locked up.
Dr. Stone , upon arriving at the house ,
examined Murphy's wounds and found
the ball had entered his loft side at
i point just below the short ribs and had
passed
CLEAR THUOUOII THE BODY ,
and out at the right side , nearly opposite
from whore it entered , touching the ooint
thoJivarin jits course. It is not
known'whether the ball passed through
the stomach or not , but the doctor was of
the opinion that it had not.
The wounded man was moved to John
son's boarding house and was made as
comfortable as possible. He was visited
by the doctor again last evening and ho
stated upon his return that ho thought it
very doubtful if Murphy would recover.
The wounded man made n statement
yesterday afternoon and from the nature
of it , it T > ould seem that the shooting
was unprovoked and that Henry intend
ed to
MORDER MUUl'UY IN GOLD BLOOD ,
and it was no fault of his that he did not
succeed.
Murphy said that on Sunday ho had a
slight altercation with Henry. The mat-
was not of a serious nature and ho sup
posed the trouble was all settled and that
no moro would bo said about it. Yester
day afternoon ho was lying upon a bunk
when Henry entered , walked up to him ,
drew his revolver and without n
WOHD OF WARNING SHOT HIM.
After shooting him Henry walked into
an adjoining room without saying a word.
The mon at the camp were ignorant of
the trouble which led to the shooting of
Murphy , but some of them volunteered
to toll what they know regarding the
afl'air to a BEE reporter , who visited th
scene last evening. Ono of thorn stated
that Murphy had boon drinking for sev
eral days past , and Monday evening
Henry ordered him to
LEAVE THE HOUSE
and procure a now boarding placo. Mur
phy left the house at that time , and
yesterday morning : returned to Henry's
house while Henry was out , and wont to
sloop upon ono of the bunks. Shortly
after noon Henry returned to his house
and found Murphy , at which time the
shooting took place ,
The revolver was a Remington , eight
inch barrel , and 44 calibre. It is a
MUllDKIlOUH-LOOKINO WEAl'ON ,
and the ball which inflicted the wound is
now in the possession of D , U , Johnson
and is not scratched at all , showing con
clusively that it did not strike a bono in
its course.
Till ! FEELING AMONO THE MEN.
The fooling among the men in tiio
camp in regard to the shooting was very
bitter against Henry , and had it not buon
for the fact that it was nearly time for re
suming work , and most of them were
away , it would have been decidedly un
healthy for Henry.
Murphj , the 'wounded man , is about
24 years jf ago , a butcher by trade and
his homo is in Chicago Ho was regard
ed in tbo camp as an innff tnsivo fellow
and ono who would not provoke a quar
rel , much less do anything that would
call for his murder.
Henry has retained N. J. Burnham as
counsel and that gentleman visited the
stock yards last evening to see what
favorable points he might bo able to gain
for his client.
vroiouToows ,
A Narrow Kcapn from Dontli liy mi
Attack of nil Humect ! Cow.
Monday evening a little throo-yoar-old
girl of John Platz narrowly escaped death
upon the horns of a vicioui cow. The
little child was playing at the corner of
So ward and Saundera streets when she
was attacked by a maddened cow. The
animal rushed at her aud knocked her to
the ground after which she made repeat
ed rushes at her. Luckily the horns of
the enraged animal were so far apart
that they passed over on either side of
the child. After several dives of this
kind the animal attempted to jump upon
the prostrate child , but in this the child
also escaped injury. About this time a.
neighbor came to the rescue an dr vo the
animal off and lifted up the child , who
was completely covered with dirt which
had boon piled up by the ferocious ani
mal ,
It is not known to whom the cow belongs -
longs , bu it is a dangerous animal to bo
rnnning at largo nnd especially so ii the
face of the fact that there is a law against
cows running at largo and a pound inns-
tor appointed to see that the law is en
forced.
This makes two little children attack
ed by vicious cows within two days , one
having been aoveroly injured in South
Omaha Sunday night.
AN UNATUllAli MOTHER.
She Deserts Four Small children nnd
Loaves Tliem to Hie Mercy of n
CoUnVorld.
Train No. 2 , on the Union Pacific
road , arrived in this city yesterday morn-
bringing with it four small children with
out any ono to care for or protect them.
There were three girls and a boy. The
youmrcst was about three years of ago
and the oldest could not of boon moro
than nine years old ,
When the train left North Platte the
children were on the train in company
with their mother. When Central City
was reached the vrnman came up missing
and nothing is known as to what became
of her. The train men mon say that for
a long ways the other side
of Central City _ the woman was in deep
consultation with a man who had n ticket
for Council Bluffs and that this nmn also
was missed when the train loft Central
City. It is thought the two loft the train
together and that the heartless mother
baa cast her helpless offspring upon the
cruel and stormy waves of a heartless
world.
At present the children are under the
care of Wily Dixon , the depot policeman ,
and efforts are being made to ascertain
the whereabouts of the w man who has
so villianously deserted them.
BATHER ONE-SIDED ,
A Presbyterian Minister Deposed
"Without Being Given nFair Show.
NELSON , Nob. , May 19.
To the Editor of THR EKE.
Allow mo a word in the columns of
your enterprising paper in justiso to my
self and family ,
The action of the Hastings Presbytery
in deposing mo from the ministry and
excommunicating me from the church is
unparalolled , I dare say , in the history
of Presbyterianism.
I had gene to the Presbytery not know
ing that any trial awaited me.
I had received no citation to appear for
trial , and , consequently , had no witness
on hand.
I begged the Presbytery to give mo a
chance for defense , but this they refused
to do.
The trial was hold in secret and at
night.
It continued all night and only one
side of the case was hoard , and at about
six o'clock in the morning a vote was
taken on what had boon heard on the ono
side , and of course the charges were
sustained.
I have taken an appeal to the synod ,
where I expect the sentence reversed.
In thn meantime I shall abide the man
date of the Presbytery , and labor as an
evangelist till Synod convenes.
Yours , etc.
