Coroner Drexel was summoned nt 0:30 : yesterday to investigate the death of n man who was found , with his throat cnt , lying near tlio intersection of South Twenty-fourth street and the Union Pa cific track. The case proved to bo a mys tery , which will only bo cleared up , if over , by the most shrewd and careful work. The coroner , accompanied by Ofllccr Peter Mat/.a and a reporter of the HEE drove out , shortly after the first notifica tion had boon received , to the scene of tlio tingcdy. The drive was over a scries of hills and valleys , which made thn trip anything but a pleasant ono. The nodyof thu dead man was found ly ing in tiio rear of the cottage of a Herman by the name of John Millncr , a few feet away from the railway track. Ho was lying on his side , his head resting on ono arm. For several feet around the ground was soaked with blood , while leading around the side of the house for n distauco of about ten or twelve feet was a trail of blood. A close examination of the corpse showed that almost beyond question the case was ono of murder. There was a heavy gash , probably four or live inches in length , and two in depth , on the left side of the neck , which must have caused death almost instantaneously. In addition to this there was a cut of about two inches in length under the loft car- another ono on the loft side of the chest , and still another on the right arm , a few inches above the elbow , on the inslilo. No ouo npperacd to bo able to identify the dead man , butit was pretty certain tlinthe was a Gorman of perhaps U8 or 21 yearn of age , and that his name was lluhlo , as a bank book , bearing the stamp of the Omaha Savings Hank , was found in his pocket with that name on it. lleyond that , and a postal card bearing on the reverse side the printed address of the "Anzolger dos Westcus. " the German journal of St. Louis , thcro were no papers on his per son. Ho was attired neatly but plainly , in a suit of dark jeans , thu coat and vest of which were open. Tin : TIICUUY OP MUIIDER. fr'As already intimated , every circum stance connected with the case points to the theory of murder. About a quarter past 10 o'clock yesterday the occupants of the Millncr house , near which the body was found , were awakened by the screaming of a Inan , who was evidently struggling with an assailant. Milluer dressed himself ns rapidly as possible and went out doors , followed by his wife. When tlio two reached the roar of the yard they found the unfortunate man lying on the ground with his throat cut , all lifo being extinct. Several other German and Polish families in the neigh borhood were aroused by the cries and came out , but as soon as they discovered that tlio man was dead they returned to their homes. Milluer , as well ns the other neighbors who were questioned about the tillair , slates that there was no ouo in the neighborhood when lie wont out to investigate the cause of the screaming. The fact that there are so many knife cuts on the head anil body of the dead man is prlnin facie evidence that ho' was murdered. If the case was one of suicide , llulilo would not have cut him self in so many places. The circumstance of the cuts on the arm and breast is prob- 'ably attributable to the fact that lluhlo , in attempting to ward off the attack of ] the unknown assailant , throw up his arm > to parry the thrusts. In fact , the horrible manner in which the dead man is chopped , shows that the struggle must have been a terrilic ono. Tlio trail of blood from tlio front to the back of the houso. shows that the poor follow must hnvo boon stabbed naar the front door , and then ran around to the back door , where ho foil dead. Near the casement of the side door there is also a largo pool of blood , which makes it probable that Ruble cither While still struggling with his assailant , g or immediately after the death-thrust had boon received , tried to force his way into the house. The wounds were pro bably made with a razor or an exceed ingly sharp knifo. A careful search of the ground for many feet around failed to disclose the instrument with which thu deed had been committed. This circum stance , too , militates strongly agaiu.st the theory of suicide , for had Rtihlu killed himself , the knife or raxor with which he cut his throat would hnvo been found by his sido. Assuming then that Ruhlo was mur dered , which is almost beyond the prcad- vcnturoof a doubt the only thing possi ble , the motive is tlio next thing to bo de i termined. This at present , it would. m Ecum , must rumniu a mystery , for the most dllligent search has so far failed to royoal any circumstances which will throw light upon the matter. It was thought , however , that Ruhlo was way laid by tramps intent upon robbing , and that , in defending himself , ho was killed. There Is absolutely no clue to the porpo- trutord of the deed. WHOllUIILK IS. After carefully making a preliminary examination of the case , Coroner Drexel removed the body to his olllcu. Hero hundreds of curious persons pressed in to view the remains , and it was not long before one of the spectators , Fred Wirtli , proprietor of the City Hotel , identified ; the corpse ns that of a man who * had boarded at his house for near- f1 ly a year and a half. Mr. Wirth stated i to n reporter for the IJm : thai Uuhlu was a ' " , Ypung man of about 1 years of age , and > had ucen living in Omaha nearly two * * years , Ho eamo hero from Havana , i where lie still has relatives living. Dur ing his ijtay in Omaha ho has been doing ' oild jobs , part of the time driving a team. At other times , ho has ( men engaged in farm work , just outside the city. Ho was X n frugal , economical young 111:111 : , and 'managed to save ui > considerable money , more than $000 , of which now stands to Ids credit in the Omaha Saving ! ) bank , Lately ho lias been out of work , On Mou- ( ' ' day of this week , ho started to Lincoln , taaying that no thought ho could find cm- f ploymtnt in that city. Yesterday ho returned , but for some reason dhl not go to the City hotel. Ho left his baggage at the depot , and sauntered away seeming to waut to avoid his friends. Motldug was seen of him alive. "Tho case is undoubtedly ono of iuur < Uir. " said Mr. Wirth. "It is my opinion that in returning from Lincoln ho fell in with some rtilHans who iimtirincd thai ho bail money on Ids person , and after ar rival hero waylaid nml killed him. Of coin-do Huhlo had homo enemies , but , enc of them , I think , wore bitter enough to have murdered him. Ho was B'r a peaceable , qujot follow , wjio preferred VU l u lot alouo and to lot everybody else rl' ' ? lono. Ho was not in the habit : \ of carry- . , . much money about with him not -'juoro ' than ? 1U or $13. How much ho f Imd ultli him whan ho wont to Lincoln I iiwiot say , " T1IK INQUEST. coroner's jury commenced thor . . . . - . . . --r thu uioruusYo ducsdiiy , nnd was toltl Hint a man was lyinprl dead near hs ] liouso. Witness notilicd the corner of to fnct.3 JOHN M1I.NEH. The second nnd principal witness was John Milncr who lives near the railroad track at the corner of Twenty.third street. Ho testified : Went to bed at 8 o'clock on Tuesday niffht and about two hours lat er was awakened by some ono knocking at tlio door. I went to the door and opened it. A man who was standing be fore the tloor rtaid , "For God's sake stop my blood or I'll hnvo to die. " The ap peal was made in the German tongue. I stepped out.sldo and the man staggered tip against the fence near by and dropped dead. Other neighbors uamo out and wo got a lamp and looked around , but could see no ono. Wo found a collar lying near the railroad .track. Did not call the pollco because 1 wus afraitl to leave the house. Did not notice any place that looked as though it had been the sccno of a scufllu. llcard no trains passing during the oveninp. llcard tr amps around but did not heo them DU. 1KB was called and gave evidence as to the nature of the wound which had caused the death of Hnhlo. The wound extended - tended from the posterior border of the neck through to thotraehon.cuUingall of the structures , veins and tissues of the throat. A man might hvo for a half hour witli such a woumlt anil would oven retain consciousness and bo able to talk and walk for ten or lifteen minutes. The wounds on thu head and arm had hecn made with a very sharp instrumunt. The coroner's jury then adjourned until ' 10 o'clock this morning m order to give District Attorney Kstullo time in which to examine several theories that have been advanced conerning the crime. In preparing the body for burial yester day the coroner found in ono of the pockets a gold watclt anil l0 ! cents in money. As yet no evidence has boon secured that shows that Htihlu had any companions when he returned to tlio city Tuesday evening. He was not seen in company with any ono , and the manner of his death is still a profound mystery. A VACANT C11A1U. That Now liclng Warmed by liatul Commissioner Burnlmin. A BEE reporter approached Mr. Lcavitt liurulium , laud commissioner of the Union Pacific , yesterday and [ said : "Mr. Burnham , let mo ask you a per sonal question. Have you resigned ? " "I have not. But I'm going out. I have been given to understand that they wanted to run the land olllce a little dif ferently , and 1 told thorn I could just as readily retire on the lirstof Juno as not. " "Who are they ! " "Tho Boston people who arc interested in matters. " "W ho will succeed you ? " "That I don't know. " "When do you go ? " "On tlio first of June. " "What business will you then under take * " "I don't know , J shall take a needed rest for some time , and then shall devote some time to my personal interests. 1 have allowed them to sull'or a little from attention here , I have been pretty regu lar hero for the last eight years , not taking as much as might bo termed a six weeks' personal vacation. The gen- gentlemen or whom I have snokcn hnvo intimated to mo that they desired tlio varied land interests of the Union Pacific to bo aggregated and looked after by a bureau. Beyond that they do not express themselves. Of course I did not oxpcot them to out line their plans for the future. " Mr. Burnliam then scouted the ridicu lous use in which the word "resign" is used when people are no longer wanted , and asserting mat corporations could lay poonlc aside without being questioned as well as anybody. Ho then handed the reporter the follow ing circular which explains itself : OMAHA , Mav 17 My connection with tlio Union Paclllc'U. K. Co. , nml the oHiccot land commissioner ends Juno 1st 1SSG.

Ho has hod valuable experience among all kinds of diseases and among all conditions of lifo , only to bo secured by practice in largo cities. The doctor's methods of diagnosis are now and enable - able him to determine to a certainty the malady. All organs of the body tire sup plied with their own particular nerves. If thu organ is diseased its nerves become tender. By pressing upon these nerves which center in tint spinel column the disease is located. This method requires a thorough knowledge of anatomy , and lliis tlio doctor possesses. A trial will convince tlio most skeptical that Dr. Sim ons is a master in his profession.

The board of education hold a special session at fi o'clock Tuesday afternoon to confer with the architect of the pro posed Georgia avenue school , with a view of remodeling the plans in order to re duce tlio cost of that structure. The board has an appropriation of $20,000 for this building and can only expend ? o.OOO in oxccss of this amount , making a total of2o,000. ! The plans for the building were made a year ago and the increase in the price of certain kinds of material and thoi advance in the price of labor , makes it impossible for the building , as planned , to bo constructed within the prescribed limit , It is proposed by the board to substitute n shingle roof for the slate rno contemplated in the original plan , thus saving about ? . )00 , and to re duce the amount of stone work about § 1,500 , making a total reduction of $2,000. The architect will probably bo instructed to maku these changes before the new bids are advertised for. Opclt's Hotel , Lincoln , Neb. , opened March 15th , first class in every respect.
