ifo-ppl ) It Hughes , a law. or of Alma ,
and 11. Cook ( Srillith , were indicted by
the grand jur , > yesterday alleruoon for
lorgmg allidavils to nrocnri pension
money. Hughes was a member of the
I'orly-lilth Indiana regiment during the
late war , ol xvhlili Dr ( "iiamberlain wis :
surgeon Hughes xva.s de-irous of hocur-
iii'j a rn'iinioti on account of wounds re-
ceheii during the war , and accordingly
applied to Dr. Chamberlain for an
nlhd.ixit as to how the wounds were
received. Tlic doctor , hawever , failed
to recall the injuries leceived by Hughes ,
and relused to make the allidavit.
Hughes thereupon secured the services
of ( inllilli to impersonate Dr. ( "hambc'r-
lain , and the necessary allidavit was
sworn out and tor warded to the pension
oiliee at Washington.
Dr. Chamberhim , who is now a min
ister residing at Denver , is in Omaha ,
and as crls that he never made the alli
davit , and it looks as if II hcs amUJrif-
lith had | ) laccd themselves in a lix. The
court has appointed Attorneys Ualdwin
and Stone to represent the defendant
Hughes , and Ciillith is allowed to select
his own attorney.
IlIOGINS FOUND GIJII/TY.
Tlic Friendship of JScbni null Lecilcr
Fall to Convince tlio Jiity.
Tiomptly at 10 o'clock yesterday the
trial of the Iliggins ease was resumed.
Councilman lielim was put on the
st.ind and testified to some immaterial
facts. Ho .said that certain lawyers in
town had approached him sumo time
ago , and told him that there was money
in it if lie would gy and see HL'gins , and
arrange it so that no coilid rim all night.
He xvent to Iliggins , and tottl him that
lie xvould try to arrange it H ) that
be could be allowed to urn all night and
would do this not for money but for
friendship's sake. Mr. Uehiu tfusn testi
fied with regard to the alleged arrange
ment made by Marshal Cnmmings to "be
as lenient ys a democratic marshal" and
to allow Iliggins to keep open all night ,
but Ins testimony on this point was not
very clear and developed nothing iii w.
Coiim/dmen Tlirane , Lee and Hechcl
0fibred some evidence , which showvil
nothing , and tailed to prove that Mar
shal Ciimmings had promised to mitigate
the severity ol the 10-o'clock closing or-
diuancp. 'Air. Hechel said that ho fits
tinclly told Marshal Cummings that it
vva i Ins duty to entorco the ordinance , as
hit was acting under the mayor's orders.
Capt. Sullivan tcatilied that ho had
nothing more to do with enforcing the 12
o'clock order than to obey the mandates
oi the marshal.
In t ho nf lornoon the marshal was put on
the stand and submitted to : i rigid exam
ination , lie said that ho had n conversa
tion with l.ccdnr about the twelve
o'clock closing oulinanco but did
not promi-o to make an
exception in fayov of Ilignins or any otli-
or saloon man in enforcing il. He said
that ho had been told that Hehm had said
that he ( .lichmi had ? 5tW with which to
prociiro marshal's dismissal , but but
\vlienho approached liehm In : denied
havins madu any such utterance.
"Did yon iner say that you proposed
to bust hp Higgliis' coiner if It tool ; nil
ihn police force to < iccomplish it ? " xvas
asked of bun.
'No ' , sir , 1 never said anx thing of the
kind.said M.irsiial dimming1 ; 1 have
always maintained thai I proposed to en-
ton e ihe major' . ; older vviilmul lavonng
anvbodx. . "
The inosecution then called Mr. Furay
and nski d :
"Sitjtiv whether or not thi > removal of
Captain iiiilliviin was bi c.iu-o lie w.is too
strict about clo-ing the nalooni at midnight
night/ "
This was promptly objei ted to by the
counsel for the dufim.se , and thq objec
tion w.is sustained.
Mr Leo was then called , and testified
that ho htiil advi-.ed Marshal Cummings
lo obey llio mapor's order. This closed
the evidence.
It w.propo \ ; cd 'o submit the case to
the jury without argument , but Attorney
Hawc 'wanted to tell lu little story , and
the pro-eeution concluded to answer
him The argument was lordly cfmi-
mcnccd biippir time when the court
adjnunud togi'l t-omething to cat. Court
rcasieinbled at 7 o'clock and the aigu-
meiit wis continued until ! > , xvhcn the
jury retired. At H.iO : o'clock Judge Ston-
berg called on the jury , who announced
that they had agreed. Their xcrdict
found Iliggins guilty us charged , and
the court lined him $ IO'Jiind costs of the
Miii. The following composed lh jury :

The very hoslile attitude in which the
Western association loaiU stand to each
other , as lirst made known here through
the HKK'S special tolegr.-.phie. service of
yesterday , is now the reigning topic in
railway circles. In llic event of a fight
it is well that the public should exactly
understand the situation nnd causes
lending thereto. For this reason the
matter is set forth herein in liio umplcal
possible form.
The Western association comprises all

elation xvas created xvithin tlio past year
and built upon the ruins of tlm
Tripaitite and various other o.x-
ploded agreements. The purpose
of such sin as.sociatiou is simply lo uuilc
Ihe-n live competitive roads on n live
and-lei-lix-o basis their

ence , wilh it rivalries , would not render
possible. Schedules of freiglu rales cov
ering every class of shipment was made
and the managers pledged themselves to
adliLivnce thereto. A rate of Ml cents
between Omaha and Chicago was cst.ib-
ikhcd and the several roads went home
from the truce meeting satiiilipd with all
details. Prior to this , however , tlic Mil-
xvankco had made n contiacl xvith ( See ,

A rcpoiti r made a tour of the agents
for the eastern roads in ibis city to learn

STKI5KT CAR
Ono Kims Awav on Thirlenntli and
Two Colliilc on Soxvaril Hlrcct.
The heavy grades on tlic streets in sev
eral parts of the city render liorso car
travel quite perilous at times To this
the company adds additional ( error.s by
employing bionehos and wild ponies
which take flight , at the least provoca
tion. Yesterday xv Hues-red Iwo acci
dent of si hair-raising character.
About 11 in tlie morning , us car No. 5 of
the Thirteenth -treot line was passing
IliiscalPn residence at the head of a
heavy grade , bound up town , the hoives
ran away. Thediixcr who had gone out
with the car , cxtn-iieiieing Ilie tractions

ii ) ) on St. Man's avenue , where its mate
Wits kilhd. . . 'lien the animal * started
down llio hill this morning they were too
much tor ( he veteran driver behind them.
The man jammed down the brakes , but
Unit was of no avail , as the wheels slid
aslhuugh the track wa.s gn ased. In a
few seconds the car had gathered trom-
endoiin headway , and was pushing hard
upon tlm heels ol the lining hor-os. The
crowd of ii.isscngors was sei/ed with n
panic , and a. few attempting to jump
from the rear platform xvercset violently
on their heads. Near Iho bottom of the
lull another car xvas coming up , and but
a few feet more and llic two would have
collided , when the rnnavva > liojr-cs
stumbled , and the cor following < < n lop
of them , was tin own liom tin : track and
stopped Strange to Miy , niiiher pas-

About the name hour , the team attached
to a red line car coming low.ud town
ran axvay on .Sewaird treel Again
the brakes vyerouut aed again they glided
