A Flno Point.
Judge Woolworlh has commenced pro-
rcdlngs of habeas corpus in tlio United
States court to secure tlio release of
lurry W. Hall , a young man now in the
icnllontiary , haying been charged with
unrder. In 1832 Hall killed ono Conrad
Schlicgel , in Cheyenne county. At tlio
imo of the killine , or shortly thereafter ,
a grand jury of thu ciU/ous of Cheyenne
county was in session , but for some rea
son failed to make any report on the mat
er. Later on ho was indicted by a grand
ury composed partly oi residents of
'hoyonno county and of Stoux county ,
> lead guilty nnd was sentenced to a life
erm in state's prison. Under the four-
contti amendment and on the ground
hat all the jurors were not residents of
ho county In which thu crime was com-
nitted , Judge Woolworth claims that
he indictment was not legal. Judge
Dundy has issued an order requesting
A'ardcn Nobes to show cause within ton
lays why the release should not bo
'ranted. The case is the lirst 0110 of the
cind over brought up in this state , and its
outcome will bo awaited with considera
te interest.
RnfTerty Withdraws.
The RalTorty case came up before the
icense board at the mayor's' ' office yester-
lay afternoon to determine whether or not
he party mentioned should bo granted
> ormission to run a saloon on Twenty-
six street near St. Mary's avenue.
I'lith full board was present ,
iso were also Judge Duiuly ,
Jos. Her , Jnp. T. Bell , Elmer Frank and
others. Rafferty announced to the board
hat he desired to withdraw his applica-
iou for license , and the permis
sion was accorded him. The
) oard then went through the
'ormula ' of declining to grant him a
icense. This action will enable the
: roasurcr to refund RafTurty the .money
advanced wJion ho lileu' his application.
The reason for the withdrawal was the
'act ' that ho had learned that a majority
of the board had decided to vote against
iving him a license.

CLOSCD OUT.
An Icecream Mnn on St. Mary'i '
AvetiHe Absconds.
"Mister , tlio man th.it used to run thai
store owes me forty cents , " said a small
boy to a reporter who was knocking foi
admission at tlie clo < cd-up ice-cream ,
candy and cigar store of II. C. Wostluke ,
on Eighteenth and St. Mary's avenue ,
yesterday morning. The establishment
fms been attached by creditors , and West
lake had left the country.
Somu weeks ago , Westlako came to
Omaha for the purpose of opening up an
ico-crcam and confectionary store , lie
lilted up elegant quarters on the avenue ,
introduced new ices and ice-creams , ad-
vertiscd liberally , and altogether made a
Keat .splurge. 1 or a time it seemed as
though the establishment was making
money but of late business lias been run
ning down and Mr Wcstluko realized
that ho must soon go to the wall. Hi ;
creditors began to press upon him. Mon
day , he left the city for the ostensible
mirpose of going to Council Bluffs ,
but really as his wife states ,
of "skipping the town. " Yester
day ho had not shown up ami his eredi-
lors attached his stock and futures
through writs procured in Justice Hels-
ley's court , as follows.
Henry Diekson , ? 71)iO. ) (

Stephens Vogalo iV Dinning , $89.
A. L. Filch , $01.
Constable lliuiek closed the door.s and
look charge of the establishment. Mrs ,
Wcstlake says she thinks her husband has
deserted her.
One of the creditors not included in the
list , is tlio small boy mentioned above ,
wlio insists that Westlako owes him fort }
cents for blacking his boots. As ho has
procured no attachment , the bootblack's
claim will probably not be satisfied.
