Who Can .Must 1'ny ,
lr.Cioss Free Again ,
The report quickly spread yesterday
morning that Dr. Cross had arrived in
the city , having been released on bail.
It wa.i the theme of talk for many. The
fearful tragedy of the night of September
21 , 1881 ! , by which Dr. A. H. McKinic was
.shot , down in the street by Dr. Cros , can
never be forgotten , and even the details
of the all'alr are still fre < h in the minds
of many. Dr. Cross ha ? undergone a
trying ordeal already , and the end is not
yet. He has been through a long , clo cly
contested trial , in which his attorneys
have done all in their power to make it
appear that ho .shot Dr. McKune in self-
defense. The result of that trial was his
conviction of murder , and lip wit * , sen
tenced to bo hung. Taken to Fort Madi
son , he was there locked in the dead cell ,
to watch and wait for the date of ins ex
ecution , while Ins trieuds and attorneys
continued their efforts to secure for him
a new trial. The order for a new trial
was at last secured , and new hope was
given him. He then .secured tin order
removing him from thcsiate penitentiary
to the county jail of Hed Oak , Montgom
ery county , where he has .since been eon-
lined. During the nine months of his se
clusion there , he lias been buoyed up by
the hope that ho could secure bail , but
the amount required being large , $20,000 ,
this has been no easy task At last it has
been accomplished , and once more ho
breathes the free air , although the future
is by no mean's .sunny for him.
Tnero has been here a strong feeling
against Dr. Cross. Many who know both
men. and who watched the unfolding of
the evidence , are among those most
stronglv convinced that the -shooting ot
Dr. McKunc was premeditated. Others
have held stoutly to the Scotch verdict ,
"Guilty , but not proven.1' The number ot
those who have clung to HIP theory ot
Dr. Cross' entire innocence are few. One
person has clung to him throughout all
of his trials with a devotion that could
not but excite admiration the wife , true
as steel , untiring in her exnrtions , ever
by his side. For her the dcooest sym
pathy 5s tell by many even of those who
feel very bitterly towards her husband.
Her devotion to him may have led her to
utter words which her judgment under
other circumstances might have never
allowed to pass her lip , but her wilely
devotion certainly entitles her to
the most charitable construction of every
word and act .since the night of the
Lragedy , which drove happiness from two
homes ,
Cross registered Monday night late at
the 1'acillc hou < > as "K. 1) . Cross , M. I ) . ,
and wife. " The writing was very illegible ,
tlio lirst "s" in his name being writfeii in
the old htylc , a long one , anil the next " .s"
short , giving the two letters the appear
ance ot the letter "p. " which , with the
"M. IV and the word "and" also illegi
ble , gave the autograph the appearance
of some .such name as "Cropmand. "
This was either done to throw the repor
ters off the scent , or because no was very
nervous when he registered. They were
given room No. 40 , which they
occupied during the night. Vcster-
day morning ho breakfasted
with his wife at Louie & Met/gnr's
restaurant , the hour being early , li10. : !
He partook heartily of tenderloin steak
and brook trout , with eggs and other ac
companiments.
Cross then went to the Revere house
and again registered the same way , but
in a plain , bold , legible hand , and stated
that lie had breakfasted and would be
there for dinner , but possibly might not
come to the hotel until night. In the
meantime , ho spent the day with old
friends and neighbors.
A lir.r. representative called on him
early yesterday morning. Ho was
enveloped in a heavy ca simerc
overcoat closely buttoned , with his
cal appearance was greatly changed. Ho
had not that robust appearance of former
years. His cheeks worn sunken and his
eyes liad a glassy appearance. As he en
tered the room he stood close to the en
trance , which nt once denoted his un
willingness to bo interviewed , which , of
course , was very natural for a man occu
pying a like position. Ho was extremely
reticent , and according to his own state
ment had even forgotten some impor
tant facts connected with the shooting of
Dr. McKune. In answering questions
utit to him ho replied as follows : "Yes ,
I'm back again. Got in last night. Got
bonds last week. Left for here last night.
Don't know who bondsmen arc. Haven't
seen a list of them. Couldn't say what
'
the date of the shooting was , as'1 have
forgotton. Wasn't able to travel when
bonds were given. Have been very sick.
The less yon say about mo the more I'll
appreciate it , as I don't want any more
notoriety. Must take care of myself and
restore shattered health. " The BKK repre
sentative asked if it was not through the
untiring etl'orts of Mrs. Cross that uonds
were finally obtained , to which ho replied -
plied that he did not think it was through
the efforts of any particular person ; that
thev came through "friends. "
Dr. Cross now has for his attorneys A.
V. Larimer. J. Y. Stone at d Smith Me-
Phcrson. Ho is to have his second trial
at Hed Oak , Montgomery county , in June
no\t , having taken a change of venue
from Glonwood , Mills county , where he
was lirst tried , The bonds hero arc
given in accordance with an indemnify
ing bond furnished by eastern friends , so
that the local bondsmen run no risk. Dr.
Cross is in very poor health. Yesterday
ho was so feeble and nervous that ho
could not consult even with his attornojs ,
but sought rest and sleep , having had no
sleep the night before. He is said to
have been spitting blood lately , and he
really is shattered physically , he natur
ally being a very healthy , robust man.
Whether ho will remain in Council Bluffs
or not until his trial does not appear , ho
not having fully decided that question
yet , out has concluded to remain at the
Rnycrc house this week.
Yesterday afternoon ho took a stroll
up Broadway , occasionally meeting some
friend or old acquaintance.
looking Up the Uccorils.
The board of supervisors are still in
session , plodding along with routine
business , allowing bills , etc. The most
Interesting Horn of business thus far
transacted is in regard to the late county
auditor , T. A. Kirkland. Some years
ago a Frenchman. Henry Girig , died sud
denly at the transfer. The coroner hold
an inquest , and on the body was found a
belt containing $103 In gold. The man
was a stranger hero , and all attempts to
ascertain his heirs or their whnreabouts
have been in vain. Coroner Faul turned
the money ever to the board of super
visors , who directed County Auditor
Kirkland to place the same in the poor
fund. The board has lately been looking
up the matter , and it is said that the
books do not show that any such amount
has been placed in the fund as directed.
I ho board has passed resolutions rcclt-
ing-thest ) facts , as they appear'on the sur
face , and directing the county attorney
to. commence suit against ox-Auditor
Kirkland and his bondsmen to recover
the amount. Another resolution WAI
authorizing the hiring of an ex
pert to examine the books of the late
auditor , and make a full report concern
ing them. This action coms to come
rather late , as Mr. Kirkland has been out
of olllce over a year. The statements In
the o resolutions come with some sur
prise to his f Hondo , and judgment on the
C.T-O will wisely be delayed until further
light is thrown upon It.
City Council Sled Inc.
The city council mot last evei'ing ' , with
all the aldermen present. A large
amount of routine business was transac
ted. Tlio Nonpariel lost its grip and the
dear old grandmother will bo surprised
tin * morning when she awakes and reads
in her scrap-hook that the Glebe here
after is lobe the olllcial organ of the city ,
as per resolution oll'ercd by Lacy. She
will probably wipe tlio tears away and
console herself with the news that one
of her children has just received an ap
pointment from the'governor. The Tenth
avenue ordinance was not taken up as
the "big three , " which is composed of
Knller , Danfortli and Hammer , voted
down a suspension of the rule-- .
The bond of Chief Templeton of the lire
department was approved.
The committee reported favorably on
the petition of W. H. Maurer for reduc
tion of taxes Concurred in by the coun
cil and referred to county supervisors.
A resolution by Lacy selecting the
Gjobo as the olllcial paper was adopted
without opposition.
A resolution was passed granting bonds
to James 1' . Gouldcn for f : { > .lU.2U on grad
ing done by him , Aldermen Danfortli
and Hammer voting nay.

Granted.
U he petition of the barbers for an ordi
nance to compel the barber shops to
close on Sundays was culled up by Met-
calf , who asked it be granted , but as it
had no second it died a natural death.
The matter of lilling the street in front
of Norman Green's on Union struct was
referred to committee on st'-ccts and
alleys , and city engineer instructed to
draw a sidewalk ordinance for thi °
street.
As the old Tenth avenue ordinance I.nil
expired by limitation without the Union
Pacilic having accepted the same an at
tempt was made last night to suspend
the rules and take up the new ordinance ,
but the "big it' voted against it.
Wells then moved the council when it
adjourned , adjourn to meet this evening ,
but the "big 'J" again voted nay.
The "big three" hold the trump cards
and seemingly have made up their minds
to hinder any legislation that is in the
least objectionable to their royal selves.
Hammer und Danfortli worn both sulky
last night and , when they had a chance ,
voted "nay" ' with much satisfaction.
After a three hours'session of the com
mittee of the whole on Monday this "big
three , " which by the way is the title that
Alderman Lacy has christened them ,
could oiler no objection to the Tenth
avenue ordinance , but simply vowed
they would continue to light it , not
openly but quietly , and it lays in their
power to kill it , which seems to bo the
height ! ) of their ambition.
Hnycs Corrects.
Captain Hayes feels that an injustice
has been done him by associating his
name with the dilliculty which Still has
had with his family. He says that his
ditliculty with Still had nothing to do
with Still's family affairs , but originated
from another and distinct cause. Still
had been tryjnsr to make trouble between
Hayes and his employers because Hayes
refused to continue work if Still was em
ployed in the same yard. Hayes wont to
Still's house to see him about some state
ments Still had made concerning hun in
this matter , and there the dilliculty en
sued. Still was arrested for disturbing
the peace , on complaint of his family ,
who charge him with all sorts of abuse.
Hayes declares that he has nflt been a fre
quenter of the house , and that it was sim
ply an unfortunate coincidence that his
Nlilllculty with Still should occur at the
same time that Still was having trouble
with his family.
Pardoned Out.
A short time ago a colored boy , Wilson ,
was sentenced to nine months in the
county jail , for stealing Mr. Hour's over
coat from the hall way of L. C. Baldwin's
residence. The fello'v is suffering from
consumption , and it was thought that if
compelled to serve his sentence he would
die before its expiration , as he was rapidly
declining under the close confinement.
Etl'orts were made to secure his release
on some order of court , but It being found
that no legal release could thus be secured ,
application was made to the governor.
The district attorney , the judge and other
ollicials joined In the request , and the
pardon has boon secured. Wilson was
taken to the Cottage hospital for care anil
treatment.
