SUEING ON THE BOND.
The Case of Nelson Against Rasmns-
sen Before the Court ,
A. Snlt Full of Serious Questions
The Plaintiff's Sorrowful Tnlo.
In the district court , before Jud o
Wakoley , the case of Mrs. Lena Nelson
against Rasmnsson and his sureties on a
liquor license bond executed under the
Slocumb law was resumed yesterday
morning. This K t'10 ' " "fc an ° f
kind over tried or brought In this tribu
nal and the progress of the case is marked
with many intricate legal questions ,
points that would naturally arlso from
different constructions of the statute law
and also that result from the manner 11-
centos are Issued by the license board ol
the city.
The plaintiff In the action yesterday
afternoon took the stand in her own behalf -
half and told as pitiful a tale as was over
related to a jury. Mrs. Nelson was
born in Scandinavia and gave her testi
mony in broken English.
THE PLAINTIFF'S TESTIMONY.
She was married to Mr. Nelson in 1871.
At that time ho was a sober , temperate
man , seldom taking oven a glass of boor.
Ho was Industroun , working hard at his
trade , that of tailoring and earning $20
per week. They lived happily together
for about eleven years. In October of
1882 ho began drinking and the habit so
grow on him that in February of ' 84 ho
had become unable to work , from the ef
fect of drink. Ho had always provided
well for his family until ho took to drink
when his wife and children were often in
want At times they had nothing to eat
and food and clothing were given them
by noighbora. So strong hod
this habit fastened Itself upon
him that flannels , etc. , given
them by friends wnro spirited away by
him and Dawned for drink. Ono of their
children , she insinuated , had died thai
winter from want and proper care , as
she was confined to her bed at that tlrao
with rheumatism. She had ROHO to Has-
musaon's saloon and requested the de
fendant to sell her 'husband no moro
Jrink , but ho responded only "That will
do , that will do , " moaning ho wanted to
boar no more from hor. Matters grow
worao with her husband until the latter
part of February ho disappeared from the
jity and has never been hoard of since.
The line of the defense so far aa it has
boon manifested will bo to provo that the
plaintiffs husband was a drunkard prior
to October of 1883 and that ho obtained
drink from other saloons also.
LEGAL QUESTIONS INVOLVED.
When the license bond was ofl'ered in
ovldonco by Mr. Shields , counsel for the
plaintiff , the defendant objected to its
introduction in testimony , as it was no
bond. The attorney for the defendant ar-
; ued that the license issued by the license
soard of Omaha , was no license , and con
sequently there was no bond. The
Iconso was Issued without authority of
aw and did not protect the saloonkeop-
era , the very object of a bond. Judge
Wakoly hola , however , that the liceuso
waa not absolutely void , and admitted
ho bond in ovidenco.
Another question sot at rest yesterday
jy the court was the moaauro of dam
ages upon the Slocumb liquor liceuso
jonds. The attorney for Mrs. Neloon
sought to introdnco in testimony
the personal abuse and maltreatment
suffered by the wife and children
at the hands of their husband and father ,
) ut the court upon objection ruled it out
as thcso were no elements of damages ,
lolding that the plaintiff must recover if
at all upon her loss of support. T raon-
al abueo moroaonosa and maltroatn.ant ,
&c. , could not bo considered by thu jury
.n making up their verdict. The plain-
: ifTs counsel then sought to introduce in
ovldonco Ufa tables'to show the probable
length of llfo of Mr. Nelson , but these
were also rnlpd outnot being applicable in
this case aa it had not been shown that
> io had died.
The case closed last evening with the
testimony of two witnesses for the defense
fonso and Tras continued until Monday
morning. .

Buffalo Bill , who started out in Mny
last with the Wuld Woat show , mot will
quito quito an accident on Wednesday
lost. For reasons unknown the nowe
never found its way into the Associated
proaa nnd has boconio known only
through a telegram received by Mr.
Nnto Salabury , of Denver , from ono o
the combination , The following ncconni
is taken from the Denver Nowa of the
llth instant :
Mr. Nato Salsbury , of JSnlabury'a
Troubadours , who Is also ono of the prin
cipal stockholders in iho Buffalo Bll
combination , received dispatches yester
day ntating that the entire show , of which
W. F. Cody ( "Bufllo Bill" ) is manager ,
had received a ducking in the Mississippi
at n point near Ilodnoy , Miss. , the steam
boat which the combination owns , and by
which all tholr effects wcro being trans
ported south , having sunk. Mr. Sain-
bury's information was very meagre , the
dispatches neglecting to stnto how the ac
cident occurred , and giving only the
barest details. It is pretty certain , how
ever , from word received , that all the elk ,
buffalo , mountain ehoop , burros and most
of the personal effects of the company
are sunk in the river , but none of the
mombprs lost their Hyoa. Every human
being in the big combination is snfo. All
the valuable horses , mules , the band
wagon and the old Dead wood stage coach
were also caved.
A DISPATCH 11ECKIVED BY Mil. BALSllUUY
later in the day stated that the accident
would in no way interefero with the
Forthcoming engagement of the combina
tion nt Now Orleans , where Mr. Salsbury
lias a race track prepared , a grand stand
erected and other preparations made.
Mr. Salsbury says that the persons in
charge of the monagario part of the show
are untiring in thois efforts and have
such reliable eourccs to draw from that
the lost animals can bo easily and quick
ly replaced. Ho remarks in passing that
it is an exceedingly cheerless and inclement -
ent day when Bill Cody gets loft. Mr.
Salsbury places the loss to be , at a rough
estimate , not far from $25,000. Every
thing that was not valuable and | impor-
; ant to the success of the show appears to
lave boon saved and the accident might
in a great many ways bo much worse
, han it Is.
The sinking of such a big show with
TIIK CUIES OF MANY ANIMALS ,
wild and tame on a steamboat at night ,
must have boon moro spectacular in its
effects than a dozen ordinary performan
ces by too combination , and would form
a spectacle moro easily imagined than do-
scribed. RjporU from the region where
; he accident occurred , show that there
lave baen heavy rains and very bad
weather on that pact of the river.
The accident probably occurred pretty
near the shore , and the great number of
men employed , probably proved a great
assistance in the saving of the moro valu
able portions of the property. Thcro ia
'ortunatcly money enough and brains
enough employed in the enterprise to
render the disaster less serious than it
would have beui under moat ordinary
circumstances.
