Yesterday inornlnfcabont 4 o'clock , Ir
Clins. 1) Lilly , .1 truest at tlio Arcade
holol wiis foiinil lyitii * on tlio pavement
in front , bruised niul bleeding. A torri-
bio guflh vyns on the left side of Ills torn-
pie , just above the cyo , wlnlo hU anklu
was fractured. Ho was picked up in an
unconcious condition and carried up to
Jits room in tlio hotel. It was quito evi
dent that he had either jumped out of
flic window , or had fallen out , for lie was
in his nightgown.
A telegraph wire which stretched a few
feet below the third story window , from
wliiuli Lilly had fallen , was found to bu
t > rokcn , and had undoubtedly cased tlio
t and prevented inst-uU death ,
w'oiiUltotherwise have resulted
the acuKir.nl.
All day long tlio unfortunate man was
il charge of Dr. ( Joll'nian , assisted
iy other physicians , who did
r\ory thine in thuir power to pave him.
Jlr vViis UMCOIISCU , ions most { of the time
linviiiK hccn placed under the inlluenco
of opiates early in the day. It is millo
evident that sonio of thu cerebral blood
rebels have boon ruptured , for the hem-
jnoirlmttc from the nose , mouth and cars
lias been very h'jvero
Tlio manner in which the accident oc
curred is a matter of some mystery. The
in o.s t plausible theory is that the night
beiiitr warm , Lilly went to sice. ) ) by the
window , which is a very low otic , ami
losing his balance fell out. The idea
that ho intended to commit suicide , or
that he was intoxicated at the time , is
ccouted us too ridiculous to bo enter
tained.
AimiTIOXAT. . rAUTICUJ.AHS.
Dr. Lilly was a man about thirty-live
years ol ago. Ho was formerly n prac
ticing physician in Chicago , but removed
from tliat place about four years ago and
cnusicpd in the drug business at Louis
ville , iCy. Two years ago ho removed to
O'Connor , Neb. , and engaged in the
practice of his profession ami conducted
a drug More at the same time. Ho is a
cousin of Drs. T. A. & I. N. Lilly , of
Chicago. The deceased arrived in
Omaha on Sunday evening ami .staid at
the Areade On Monday ho purchased a
bill of goods of the 11. T. Clarke Drug
company. He retired to his room about
II o'clock on Monday night , after having
been engaged in a conversation in front
of the hotel with a Mr. liolpway. This
was the last seen of Dr. Lilly until his
mangled remains were found upon the
pavement at 4'JO ! o'clock yesterday
morning , in front of the Arcade hotel.
The presumption is tiiat Im took a scat in
n chair near the window to cool himself
nnd then fell asleep , and upon awaken
ing suddenly stopped out of the window
by mistake. His remains were taken to
Coroner Drcxol's ollieo yesterday after
noon , where an inquest was held , the
jury returning .i verdict in accordance
with the above facts. Mr. Charles Dau
bach , of the 11. T. Clarke Drug company ,
yesterday afternoon telegraphed to the
friends of the deceased , and received ro-
nlics from all ol them- The remains will
lie enclosed in a metallic casket and will
bo sent on the first train this morning
over the Missouri Pacific to Louisville , Ky.
How tlic Alleged Forger Crosby wus
Studied.
Tlio case of the State vs. Powell was
called I'm tlio district court yesterday.
The attendants were the same as have
been present at all the sessions which
have tints far taken place.
John Timmins was placed upon tlio
stand for the defense and testified to un
important facts. After which Crosby , tlio
young man who is alleged to have
commuted perjury in testifying that ho
bad been told by Leslie that ho ( Lrslio )
and two others had intended to shoot
Powell on the night that Leslie , himself ,
was killed. Ho was questioned by Mr.
Buniham as follows :
"Since you loft the witness stand have
you met any of the witnesses for the
ttatoV"
"Which of the witnesses have you met
since you left the stand ? "
"Since you loft the witness btand have
you made a statement that you have tes
tified to what was not true , and that you
had been bribed to swear to it ? "
"Did yon over speak to the defendant
or to his relatives with reference to this
case , or did ho .speak to you ? "
"After you loft the witness stand were
you arrested ? "
"Wero you intimidated by a mob of
men at Florence which forced you to con
tradict what you had testified to ? "
"Did you go to the house of Mr. Hald-
win witii Dr. Solomon to meet this man
Simpson ? "
"Has any ono acting for the de
fendant , or any of his relatives or
friends , induced you to swear that what
you have already testified to was false ? "
To all of .tliesu question the state , re
presented by Messrs , KsU'llo and Uald-
win. refuse to allow an answer to bo
made. Their objections were sustained
by the court , and Crosby was consequently
quently unable to deny the stories which
have been told about his connection with
Iho case.
Thocaso was then closed and Mr. BaldWin -
Win commenced his address to the jury.
Ho was followed by Mr. Qltumham for
the defense. District Attorney Kstollu
will close for the St-ito to day , .
Crosby in conversation with a reporter
id Unit ho hail made a confession to
Juduo Italdwin. that Shipley , ( ono of
I'o well's friends ) had bribed him to tes
tify as ho did , simply to get rid of Bald
win who was pestering him with ques
tions. "I wasn't on oath when 1 was
talking witli Hald\\ , "he said , "and 1
could say what I pleased. "
Crosby further denied most strenuously
that bo li.ul perjured himself , or that ho
bad received any bribe 11101103 %
Ml' , linrnham Powell's
, attorney , was
very indignant at what ho called n can-
n l' gotten up uy ono of the counsel for
thu prosecution. "This is a coctc-ruul-
bull yarn lie t > aid which will bu exposed
when the time comes. I believe I am
too shrewd and too honest to allow llald-
win to catch mo napping in that way. 1
don't know the first thing about the al
leged bribery , and am just as ready to
huvo a full examination as any QUO. No ,
sip , I havo'pot been near Crosby yesterday
because if 1 did , thu prosecution might
Do-tempted to accuse mo of trying to in
fluence him. " -tM

Amount.
llrndstreet's local agency definitely an
nounced yesterday the failure of one
of Omaha's large leather and .saddlery
lobbing linns , Sloinan iiros. , of 1207
Douglas street.
For months past the friends of tlio firm
linvo been expecting the crash to come ,
and the only wonder lias boon that tlio
failure was " /staved / oil' " as1 long as it was.
According to the llgiircs at present at
tainable , the liabilities of the firm are
about $75,000 and thn assets not over
$35,000 or $ 10,000. Mortgages amount
ing to sf.17,1)17.77 ) have been given to
various parties tosocur'.1 the indebtedness
of Iho firm. Of the amount about$10,003

There nro other liabilities which will
swell the amount to $7ii,00' ) Samuel A.
Sloinan an older brother who up to a
few month ago was connected the firm
lias boon appointed receiver for the con
cern by an order of Judge Dundy's. ' Mr.
Mr. Sloniau is endeavoring as rapidly as
possible to straighten out his aIIairs
preparatory to alluding a settlement.
A gentleman who is well acquainted
with the nliairs of the firm , in speaking
of the failure said to-day : "Tho cause
of the failure is bad management of bus
iness a Hairs , The firm have been getting
deeper and deeper into the holeand have
of late got to borrowing notes from
their friends and getting them dis
counted. These notes are known
is "accommodation paper , " for
they were given without any
return value. These morlgages were
liven to secure some of these accoinmo-
latiou notes. The fact is that for two
rears the linn huvo been drifting toward
jankrnplcy , and hist fall S. A. Sloinan ,
who was really backing the establish
ment with his money , withdrew , taking
with him all his capital. This left only
\lorris \ Sloman in the firm. Things went
'rom bad to worse until in March last
iiradsti cot's telegraphed eastern business
inns , warning them of the condition of
ill'airs. I am" only surprised that the
slomans have kept afloat as long as they
uvo. "
KOBBKl ) ON' A TRAIN.
The Mysterious Ml1 * fortune of a Cliap-
ninn Stuolcninii.
Ofliccr Mostyn wasengaircd yesterday in
ookmg through the various "joints" in
ho city for tlio stolen property of a
Jhapman ( Nob. ) stockman , who was
obbcd on a Union Pacilic train on the
20th of May last.
Tlio story told by the victim , Mr. John
jr. Nordgren , is as follows : Ho boarded
, lie train to como to Omaha , having in
ils possession two .suits of clothes , about
P7,00u in money and $1,300 in notes , to-
; cthor with a. watch valued at $100 or
25 , At Grand Island ho got oil' and de-
jositcd the $7,000 in tlio bank , reserving
ibout $25 for expense money. Just after
leaving Grand Island he fell asleep and
when lie awoke it was to find that IIP had
l)0 ( n robbed of a suit of clothes , his watch
and chain and the $1,000 worth of notes.
There was not the slightest clue to tlio
thief and none of the passengers in tlio
coach had noticed at any time that thcro
were any suspicious looking strangers
carressing " the pockets of tlie sleeping
man"
Coining to Omaha Nordgron inserted
an "ad" in tlio BEUoffering a largo re
ward for the stolen property. Monday
ho received a reply , written by a man
who claimed to know whore the stolen
goods were , which announced that for a
heavy consideration , the stolen property
would bo returned to Mr. Nordgren ,
That gentleman at once replied with an
advertisement which appeared in last
night's UKK , as follows :

Nothing has boon heard from the mys

that in all probability ho is a detective
fishing for tlio job of recovering the
stolen goods.
Yesterday after much rdjligoiit in
quiry and careful work , Ofliccr Mostyn
succeeded in recovering the clothes in
Robins' pawn shop on lower Farnam
street. The prolability t\ that the rest of
the stolen properly will bo in reach be

The suburban train arrived in town
yesterday on time , i It brought in
about oighty-lho passengers , ' of whom
thirteen wont to the other side of the

appearance. From 10 to 11 o'clock , there
were not less than 200 people on the ,

A Base Desertion.
Yesterday a little boy coarsely clad
with a handkerchief containing a few
articles and lingering about thirty cents ,
and about 7 years old , was crying among
tlio throne al the Union Pacilic depot. As
nearly as could bo learned from him his
name was Frank Mathers. Ho had been
taken to raise by a man of that name ,
then put in the poor house at Shelby , hi ,
His stepmother ho says , lives in Omaha ,
but lie did not know whore to hud her.
Ho had been accompanied lo this point
by Ills father , who , lie says , put him off
here and told him to hunt up his mother ,
while the patent went on to Lincoln. Tlio
boy was a simple child , scarcely able to
talk and this tale , when dragged out of
liim called for repeated expressions of
anger from the spectators. Ho was fin
ally taken charge of by OIHcor Green of
the depot police.
Salnnnlstfl.
City OIHcor Turnbull , in a conversa
tion witli a reporter yesterday said
that four saloon keepers were still delin
quent in the matter ot filing properly ac
credited bonds. The Law anil Order
League have boon very strict in regard
to compelling saionists to furnish bonds
which amount to something , and the con
sequence is that it has required a good
deal of hard scraping on tlio part of some
of them to give the necessary security for
tlio proper conducting of their business.
Unless these four men come to the
front to-day they will bo ar
rested and brought into the police court
tor trial. The league will attend to their
prosecution , and close them up if pos
sible. _

wagon and horse belonging to Frank
Rober after it , until finally the latter ran
away and dashed against a telegraph
polo near tiio H. & M. depot and got
pretty badly used up. Rdbcr's damages
lire : rather extensive , and ho feels he will
be compelled to pay for'tlicm himself.

Wjth him , made a desperate.lungu at him
with a knife. She slabbudi Jiim directly
above thoMioart , and bailer the kmle's
