Tim City Council. )
Last evening there was a full attend
ance at the city council , nnd a large
number of citizens were also present ,
there being much curiosity and even
anxiety ns to what was to bo done with
the Tenth avenue project , and the ordi
nance In regard to the now bridge and
street railway company. This curiosity
was not especially gratified , ns the coun
cil took no definite action , and the
ordinances , after being talked over.
informally , were left in much the same
condition as before. In regard to both
matters it was decided to let them go
over until the ne\t regular meeting ,
which will be next Monday evening. The
council will meet , however , as a commit
tee of the whole tnls evening to consider
various features of both of these import
ant matters.
A petition was presented signed by
property owners on Tenth avenue urging
the council not to give the Union Pacitic
the right of way in front of their prop-
ertv. Placed on file ,
The city attorney expressed a view ,
held by many , that while these property
owners could undoubtedly collect of the
Union Pacific any just damages they
might bo able to prove , yet. if possible ,
their claimed damages should bo ad
justed in some fair way without compell
ing them to enter Into individual nnd
long drawn out lights In court. This sug
gestion seemed to meet with favor , and
tlif council formally ttcclned to have an
ordinance so drawn up as to prevent as
far as possible any hardships resting un
duly on the property owners in case the
avenue was given up.
The ordinance in regard to the new
bridge and street railway company was
also discussed. This ordinance was
drawn up by the attorney for the com
pany , and it was deemed , best to draw up
a new ordinance , or make such changes
In this , ns would more fully protect the
rights of the city , and inspire the
people with more confidence in the
lair intentions of the company. It seems
conceited that the projectors of the enter
prise mean to deal fairly with the city ,
but the fear that they may be figured
out , or that the rights granted miiriit fall
into other hands , Toads to a desire to have
the ordinance carefully prepared , so as
to avoid any possible disadvantage to the
city.

On the 16th of last month a business
like young man introduced himself at
Mctcnlf Hros.1 store as R. Eschelman , of
Harlan. He wanted to purchase some
goods for hi.s store , and made selections
ainonntinir to about fifty dollars. He
gave directions as to shipping them , and
in the meantime picked out a cheap over
coat , and concliuk'd to take that with
him , thu other goods to bo shipped to
Harlan. The commercial agencies show
ing Mr. Eschelman to bo perfectly ru-
sponsiblu , the goods were shipped as
directed. In thu course of mail a letter
was received from Mr. Eschelman saying
that ho had ordered no goods , and that
whoever did so borrowed his name , nnd
had been playing n confidence trick.
Mutcalf Hros wore only out a cheap
overcoat , bnt'thoy set themselves at work
to find the ollunder. They learned that
ho was a son of Mr. Eschelman , his namu
bolng E , H. Escholman. The overcoat
which ho had thus procured ho had im
mediately pawned at an upper llroadway
place , and getting thrco dollars on it had
skipped for Omalin , where ho had spout
it for a spreo. The next loanicfl Cif the
young man ho returno'l ' tQ this city , tc
° i'illtu'xvnl ' ' - Which ho had loft al
Max Worm's hotel. Ho learned that n
CiUim of his. who had stopped at the
hotel with htm , had called lor and ob
tained the valise. Ho was quite angry ,
and wont to consult J. J. Stewart about
commencing a suit against Mr. Mohn foi
the value ot the property. Mr. Stewart
informed him. that ho Know Mr. Mohn
would not do nn injustice , and advised
him asraiiibt the suit , ami loft him ir
the oilico while ho went down to sec
Mr. Mohn about it. \ \ liilo youmr Eschul
man was waiting his return a police
olllcor came into Mr. Stewart's oflico to
ECU him about some other business , bin
the presence of an pllicer apparently
frightened the young man , for ho wenl
out on the excuse ofgetting , a cigar , say.
ing ho would comn right back. In UK
meantime Mr. Stewart had ascertained
that Motcalf Hros , had got a warrant out ,
and soon nn officer entered to arrest the
young fellow , but he was still out aftei
Iiis cigar , and although n thorougl
search was made about the city , ho come
not be found. There the matter hni
rested until the other day , when it wai
learned that Escholman had recently vis
ited St. Joseph , and there succeeded ii
getting about sir hundred dollars' wortl
of goods on the strength of his father' )
reputation , and had started out to peddli
them through the country for cash. Tin
firms thus claiming to have been victim
izcd were R. L. McDonald At Co. , am

young' man at Ncola , and an olliccr wa

night ho was captured at Missouri Yal
ley , and a considerable amount of good

to this city and lodged in jail , Motvnlf
Bros. Identified him , and will prosecute
the case , fn which they nro Interested , al
though the amount is small. By the time
that is disposed of the St. Joseph parties
will have lime to get the needed requisi
tion , nnd have him taken there for a trial
on tlie graver charge there , which will
probably result in his going to the peni
tentiary. His fast ways seem to have got
him into the c dishonest practices as
meaiih to secure money to squander In

Coroner Faul still sticks to the belief
that the body of the man found near
Crescent was that of Peters , the missing
witness to the Haddock murder. Ho has
watched the facts , so far as developed ,
and is satisfied that throe men started
from Sioux City down the river and that
only two arrived at Omaha , The third
one , ho thir.Ks , wns Peters , and that ho
was put out of the way. The place where
the body was found can easily bo reached
by a boat from the river , nnd , buried in
the willows , there was little chance of
discovery , lie ia awaiting impatiently
something Irom Sioux City , he having
sent there the description of the body and
clothing. He has other points which to
his mind confirm the theory. One is that ,
although the papers have as usual pub
lished accounts of the lindlnliof the body ,
there have been no inquiries on the part
of relatives. Generally he receives some
inquiry nt once , and in almost every case
the remains are identified. Ho has made
extended inquiry and can find no trace
of any other man in that part of the coun
try being missed. Coroner Faul's faith
in the theory that it was Peters who was
murdered and placed there grows daily.

A LUNATIC'S ' ESCAPE.
How Baron Hnussinnnn Got. Out ol n
French Insnno Asylum.
Pall Mall Gn/.etto : On the 2d of Fob-
rnnry last Baron Artaud Hausmann , at
the Hotel do Louvre , Paris , attempted to
murder M. do Montau/.an. The per
petrator of the offense was not punished ,
as he was found after medical examina
tion not to be responsible for his acts.
He was accordingly sent as a patient to
the lunatic asylum at St. Anne , and after
ward to that of Charenton. Ho had a
private apartment , with two kceners ,
servants specially engaged to wait on
him. Ho was visited frequently by his
sister , Mmo. do Coiircollcs , aml'it was
supposed that she suggested a number of
ideas to him , and , among othersschemes
for escape. The directors of Ilia asylum
ordered that her visits should cease.
Mmo. do Courcelles then took up her
abode in a small house connected with a
convalescent homo near Charenton , un
der the charge of Mine. Berliner , a friend
of her family. A daily correspondence
was kept up between Baron Artaud and
his sister. Ho was allowed once a week
to taKe n duve under tlio surveillance of
his two keepers , who were , however , in
structed not to take fnm to any place
named by him , and not to allow him to
enter a house , or to communicate with
anyone. Last Tuesday ho expressed a
desire to visit Mmo. Borthier , and he ap
pears to have been permitted to do so.
lie got into an open carriage , under the
care of two keepers , ono of whom acted
as driver. On the previous evening the
baron had written to his sister that ho
was to pay her a visit. On the way ho
was very lively and amusing , 'Jjlo
keeper who was with him i i the carria"o
had disappeared baJoro reaching Mmo.
Berliner shouse , but his absence seems
not * o utivo caused any surprise. The
buron wont to the drawing-room , while
the driver was taken to the kitchen to
have Fomo refreshment. Mine , do
Courcolles had an engagement in Paris ,
and had not comn to meet her brother.
He was speaking to some ladies in the
drawing-room wlien he wns seized with a
sudden attack sickness , and had to run
off into iV private room. Ho did not re
turn for some time , and when a search
was made it was found that ho , too , had
disappeared. The keeper drove back nt
gallop to the nsylum to give notice of
what had happened. Intimation was
given to the polioothe next day the whole
country was searched , The fugitive
could nowhere bo found. A very tall
man , in gray , not known in the neigh
borhood , had been seen near Mmo. lior-
tiller's house on tlui day before the es
cape. A cab driver states that ho wns
wakened about 11 o'clock at night by
two men knocking nt his door , they
offered to give him 10 francs to drive them
to the station of Villcnenvo St. Georges.
Ono of them was very tall and wore a
gray coat. The baron is supposed to
have been aided by these man , to have
taken the night train to Lyons from
Yilleneuvo St. Georges , and to bo now
in Switzerland. Wlmt became of the
second keeper is not explained ,

Peorln Journal f After a life of mar
tyrdom Mrs. Lydla Phutlpplai'o tiled the
other day within the , walls of the Rhode
Island state prison , ami so rounded out
a strange family history. Ono night
about twcnty-fivq.Vqars ago her husband
went home drunk and beat her until she ,
fearing for her life , split his head with
nn ax. She was ient to state prison for
life , accepted her fate without a word ,
and steadily refused a pardon. There
was no friend to take earn of her out of
prison walls , and so she lived on a con
vict until a few days ago she , a wrinkled ,
bent , tottering , gray-haired imbecile , fell
down dead. But a short time prior to
that circumstance her son took his own
life ; his grandfather was found dead
from unknown causes In a shanty ; one of
his uncles shot himself , and another was
killed on n railroad track. The death of
the old lady closed her family's strange ,
eventful history.
