1THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : FRIDA7. JULY' 2&188fr.- ; ONCE AGAIN UNDER ARREST , Tie Billy Editor of the Republican Oinched I For Criminal Libel * flELEASED ON $1,000 | BONDS. Xbo Dlssolnto Member or A Ills * elute Cotcrlo aa Ho Appeared He Core the Police Judge. i TCotlmckor Arrested. O. II. Itotlmckcr , editor of the Repub lican , was arrested yesterday afternoon for criminal libel. Shortly before 8 o'clocK Gilbert M. Hitchcock , editor and proprietor of the Evening World , appeared before Judge Bcrkn , in the police court , and filed a complaint against llothackcr , charging him with criminal libel. The action was occasioned by a villllying editorial whioh appeared in the Republican and to which Hitchcock replied on the sumo evening in the columns of hid pupor. The attack ml the reply sharply define the dis tinction between tlio two editors the one the venomous saliva emit ted by and characteristic of the reptile , and the other the calm nnd dignified retort of the gen tleman. The complaint being sworn to and filed , a warrant was at once issued ( or the arrest. The complaint in sub- tanco reads : Btato of Nebraska vs O. 11. Rothackcr , real nnmo unknown. U. M. Illtchcuck under oath says that O. H. Uotliacker on July 11) ) unlawfully anil ma liciously defamed U. M. Hitchcock to btJng Dim Into public scandal and disgrace , liotli- cker did unlawfully , maliciously and fi'lonconsly write , print and publish In the Omaha Hopubllcan a certain false , ma licious , scandalous nnd defamatory Dbcl of nd concerning said Hitchcock. In citing the libel Mr. Hitchcock quotes from the paper Rsfollows : "I'cxir Senator Hitchcock" ( mean- DesaidO. M. Hitchcock's father ) . All tils old friends believed in him. Ho made con siderable money which went into degenerate channels , ( meaning U. M. Hitchcock Is do- ronnratoand unworthy of suchlnheretance ) . If ho ( meaning Senator Hlchcock ) , know his oarnlnus wore bolne used to sustain the man who killed him ho would turn over lu the crave Into which ho was driven. No man Is responsible tor the future , a ho senator la not responsible for his son. The son Is simply responsible for himself , nd ho Is the contempt of every decent per- on in the st.ue. When one reviews but jvhat's the use ? To have anything that belongs - longs to morals or decency dlbcussed by a fellow ( meaning O. M. Hitchcock ) who decried - cried his brother ( meaning that the said O. M. deserted and abandoned his brother John Hitchcock ) , who joined wltu the enemy of his father nil who Is an ass on general principles , thriving oil the money the boy ( meaning the money of his brother John Hitchcock ) whom Bill Stout was torced to save when the fellow refused to help him , Is something that turns the stomach of manhood all o\er the state. Biich cattle may do what Ossawotaiulo Brown suggested. " There were a number of bvstanders in the court room at the time , and the news quickly spread about town. It is understood Rotlmcker was at his usual Farnam street haunt , at his accustomed table and guzzling with the gang of which he Is such a notorious member , when friends who had heard of the charge induced him to go homo and bo there when the Warrant was scruod. The warrant was placed in the hands of Captain Cormick , who visited the Republican olllco. There the officer was informed that Rothaokor was at home and sick. A visit to the billy editor's residence resulted in find- Insr him where ho so seldom is homo. With beery effusiveness the policeman was invited In and service accepted. Rothackor said ho would bo at the police station as soon as he could secure bondsmen - men , and with this understanding the police officer departed. Later. Roth- ncker , William F , Bcchel and Cadet Tay lor appeared before Judge Bcrka , and bonds in the sum of $1,000 wcro given for . Rothackor's appearance. pruri ent desire for notoriety was evidently greatly gratified. Ho combed his ambrosial locks with his fingers , lifted tip alternately the ends of his drooping mustache and his common air of self- satisfaction was intensified , ilo fairly pufibd out with the sense of his own im portance nnd suggested n pouter pigeon to such an extent that the bystanders wcro greatly amused. "Oh , Lord , " whispered one bystander to another , "what a lone tail our Thomas cat's got ! " Everybody laughed. It was too in finitely funny to see the usual hang-dog ir with which Rothacker shuffles dis- Jolntedly along , supplemented by one which propelled him along to the side walk with more grace that ho overstepped stopped with before. Usually when moving his head is down , as if its possessor was lost in contempla tion of the toes of his boots. Yesterday ha actually raised his head and walked full front out of the police court. Half an hour later Rothacker sat in the usual haunt. The gny coterie of lushors were about him. The billy ed itor was In his element. In his hand wan a half emptied glass which was quickly followed by repeated drinks. In place of the llaming blue necktie which usually overrides the back part of his collar was n linen rag which had once bccu immaculate. As ho turned from time to tinio toward a num ber of his dissolute companions to ox- chance a remark , the same old sycophan tic smile shot athwart the Adonnis-like features. Rothackor was in the atmos phere upon which ho thrives and wherein his editorial work is conceived and mapped out ho was at homo. WAULUIE WHISKY MEN. A FlRbt to lie Muilo Over the Midnight Closinic Order. The rumor is current on the street that a number of prominent liquor dealers hold a secret meeting Wednesday evening with the now of banding themselves to gether for the purpose of fighting the 13 o'clock law , and the intention was to make a test case out of the case against C. S. Higgins , who is to have a hearing bcforo Judge llorka this afternoon ou n oharga of selling liquor after the midnight hour , and with this ciul in view some of the best legal talent in the city , including Parke Godwin , General Co win and John M. Thurstou had been retained to attend to their interests. How much of this Is true could not bo definitely as certained but certain it is , the moneyed whisky men hold the secret meeting alluded to for the purpose indi cated , also that they waited upon Mr. Ulcgins nnd volunteered their aid advisory , financially and other wise , also that Parko Goodwin is Hig gins' attorney , and ho announced to tlio court on the arraignment o , Higmns , that in the event of conviction bo intended to appeal and make a test case out of it before the higher court , and 'that there is a move of greater or loss magnitude among the saloon magnates of the town , but whether they havo. re tained this eminent legal talent cannot be Etatod for n certainty. Numerous interviews proved abortive in the way of exhuming mato.riul facts , Mr. Higgins , in response to an inquiry , by a BKE reporter as to the authenticity ol the report , said : "Thoro was some sort of a muctlng among a number of liquor men and tlioy prollorcd'to aid mo wilji mptioy in carry ing my case up and , lighting it totho bit : tor uuil , but I peremptorily declined all ' assistance , assuring them , tli'ut 1 hud bccu gujlty of uo iufrac ol tUo law ftud was able to pay all the expense of any lltlga- ion 1 might bo involved in.

James Donahoo , aged about thirty , was arraigned before Justice Anderson yes terday morning on a charge of bastardy preferred by Hulda Nelson , and acknowl edging to the paternity of the child , was jound over to the district court in the sum of $1,000 , in default of which bo was remanded to jail. The parties arc all 'corn the vicinity of Florence , and the case la a very aggravated nnd sensational ono , replete with pathetic details. Donahoo is a muscular , not ill- favored man , who has been working for .ho past year as a laborer in Forest Lawn cemetery. Some ten months ago lie met : lie prottv , fifteen-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. John U. Nelson , and be coming apparently desperately en- araored of her , made frequent calls at her homo , much to the displeasure of the girl's parents , whom , t bccms , had conceived an instinctive dislike for Donahoo. However , inasmuch as they were in possession of uo positive 'nformatipn to his discreditthey suffered lis attentions to the daughter , until , alas , ; oo late to save her fair iiuinu from being slackened and her hopes of happiness forever blasted by the perfidy and bru- : ality of her quasi lover. Ono day last October the couple left the quiet homo of the Nelson's for n ramble in a neighboring grovo. In Llio evening the girl returned liomo , her face swollen with crying , and licr garments almost torn from her per son. A woeful tale she told to her pa rents of a forcible assault by Uonahoo. llowovor , the affair was suppressed and the story of the younc girl's terrible wrong" never became food for tlio scan dal monger. But in the course of time the evidence of this villainous assault be- same noticeable , and finally , undenia ble , in the birth of a healthy babe. Then , as Donalioo had taken no steps toward repairing the great in jury he had done tlio girl and her family , a warrant for his ar rest was sworn out , charging him with bastardy , the preliminary hearing of the same resulting as above stated. How ever , this is not the end of the affair , as the man's utter lack of feeling , his indifference - difference and defiance in tlio presence of the young mother and her weeping parents , and his exultant confession , this morning , has lead thorn to the de termination to file the more serious complaint against him of rape. Mr. Nelson exhibited a touching depth of feeling In the matter , and expressed Ills strong reluctance to expossing his daughter's awful wrongs and shame to the public , but the man's contempt for punishment has fortified him in tlio reso lution to see that he gets the maximum Donalty provided by the law for this lagrant crime. runtiio wouics. Enterprises in Which the People nro Interested. The dispute on California street be tween certain of the residents as to the grading of the south side of that street , between Nlnctconth nnd Twtmty-second streets , is very likely to bo settled by a meeting to bo hold at the residence of Chairman Balcorubo of the board of public works. The street has already boon graded , curbed and gut tered , but the south side between the streets mentioned , is several feet higher than the north side. This makes it dan gerous in winter , besides in heavy rain storms the flow of water from the hillside is thrown toward the north curb. If both were equally graded the division of the ilow would bo equalized. To render the grade equal a cut of ono foot must be made between Twenty-second and Twonty-first streets. To this there are three objectors , Messrs. Allen , Barhaur nnd Barton , though Uio la t mentioned is now in Europe. Bar- bour claims that ho will bo injured $1,000 by the cut , though it has also been stated by n neighbor , that Mr. S. T. Jossolyn , nsreos to pay the damages claimed if Barbour would remove his objections. The cut between Twonty-first nnd Nlnctconth will bo from ono foot downward. The cost ol taking up the curb and gutter , making the cut and relaying all the stone would be but 70 cents per lineal foot. THAT VIADUCT. Manley & Cooper , of Philadelphia , have written Mr. ualcombo to the effect that they have been notified by their men hero that their work on the Eleventh street viaduct has been completed , nnd they would like to acknowledge by the first mail a check for $3,131.35 , the amount of their contract for pipe railing that structure. The firm has been misinformed , because their men are still at worn on the roadway , and no one knows when they will get throutrh with their job. The chairman says they may finish on Saturday night and they may not. If they do , and the Morse bridge company uotlfy him that they nro ready to turn over the bridge to be in spected , he will call the board and with the city engineer see whether the work has been done according to specifications. The Morse company still claim $30.000 for work done , and , fiko the Philadelphia firm , are particularly anxious to receive their money. Meanwhile the viaduct bos been thrown open to the usn of the public , though pedestrian exercise upon it is not of the most pleasant kind , be cause of the warped condition of the planks.

What Was Done Before the Judges To-I > r. * UNITED STATF3. Judge Uundy was engaged in disposing of some unimportant motions yesterday morning , and in the afternoon after the llnal rounding up of a number of old bankrupt cases , court will adjourn until Novcmaor. D1STI1ICT. Judge \Vakeloy's attention was occu pied yesterday morning In hearing an equity cabo in which Aleck Black is plaintiff , nnd J. P. Manning. The litigation grows out of n real estate transfer in South Omaha be tween the parties named. The plaintiff claims ho only mortgaged the property in question and seeks to regain tts possession. Tlio defendant claims that the title passed by deed and was not conditional. Jennie E. Addison commenced n suit yesterday morning for divorce from her husband , Henry C. She claims that she was married to the defendant January 0 , 1876 , in Morgan county , Illinois ; that her husband dorartcd and ceased to support her April 23,1883and has not contributed to her suppsrt in any way since that date.

It was claimed tint he had stolen a horse md wagon valued nt $150 , when in fact lie had but seized it to protect himself in the matter of the dissolution ol the part nership which had existed between them.

Facts Concerning the Cnmlnc Meet- Ins of Marksmen. Colonel Henry has boon working dili gently in the matter of subscriptions to tlio fund to make the visit of the compet ing soldiers , which is to take place this season as agreeable as possible. The colonel thinks he will need about six hundred dollars , the object of which is to give each of the competing marksmen a monetary prue or souvenir of about ten dollars , and at the same time supply their moss with vegetables and other ar ticles unused in n soldier's life , for which the government docs not provide. This money ho is receiving from the loading and enterprising citizens , who take n pleasure in the distinction which has been shown Omaha in selecting her as the scene of three grand rillo contests. As has already been said , the contests are those of the department , the division and the distinguished marksmen , that of the last mentioned bomi ; hold for the first time in th army. In the first mentioned there will bom camp 188 officers and men. in the second about one hundred and fifty , arid in the third about one hun dred officers and men , making in all about five hundred experienced shooters. Parties desirous of contributing to the fund can do so personally or by letter to Colonel Henry nt thovheadquartcis. COMrETITIVE OFl'ICEHS.

KOUT DUCHESNE , General Dandy has returned from n trip recently made with General Crook nnd another officer to Fort Duchcsno. Ho reports that the camp seems to bo in a satisfactory condition. There are four company quarters erected and two more are to bo added to these. In these and other improvements $25,000 have already been expended and $10,000 more will be paid out this j'car. There are six compa nies located in the fort , four being in fantry and two cavalry. Up to the pres ent only the back part of the officers' quarters have been erected , the other parts being .left for later appropria tions. The fort is intended as a protection against the possible uprising of the Ulntali and Ute Indians , both ol which adjoin. The agency of the Uintahs is at White Rock , the agent being Colonel Burns. Ho U in charge of the agency of the Uncompachers , at Ouray. but is rep resented there by a clerk. The means of reaching the fort is by the Denver , Rio Grande and Great Western , to Price , and thence eighty-five miles by wagon , which requires about two days. The latter part of the road is through a desert , though the fort Is supplied with water which is brought three miles , and as a consequence quence trees are being planted and a garrison farm of 40 acres is well under cultivation.

Hoffman , the man who Is to bo hung in Nebraska City to-day for the wrecking of n train on the Missouri Pacific last January , was the subject of a short talk yesterday morning between n BEE reporter and M. Kopp , brother of thu senior partner of Kopp & Drcibus , fruit erers and candy manufacturers on Far nam street. The gentleman mentioned was on the train i when it was thrown from the track , and made his escape after lie had revolved with the car in space , by jumping through ono of the windows. It was a moonlight night and Kopp noticed two men on one siao of the train. One was running as fast as he could and was about 100 feet awy. Ho did not see the man's face , but tlio other stood near the track and this man he saw distinctly. Afterwards Kopp was called to identify the wreckers , aud ho immedi ately recognized' Bell , the man who has turned stales cvidcuco , as the follow who stood beside the track. When the latter plead ed not guilty i ho did so with a grin nnd a sneer , as if the matter were a farce. Kopp was not able to identify Hoffman , who was the party that ran away. Boll subsequently turned state's evidence , and on the strength of his tes timony Hoilman was convicted of mur der in tlio first degree and sentenced t be hung. This sentence will bo executed to-morrow. Bell was sentenced to but ten years in the penitentiary. This Mr. Kopp thinks an outrage , because Bell was not less guilty than Hotlman , more especially ho was a hardened wretch , and but a few days before had offered to shoot a number of innocent people at Dunbar. A Orounil less Rumor. There are no grounds , a BEE reporter is assured by Postmaster Gallagher , for the rumor current that a number of the attaches of the postollico are to bn decap itated this week.

Those who visited us during the past season must have noticed that since the enlargement ol our store , we carried in this line a much larger stock than formerly. Naturally , of such a big assortment , we have more left , especially of the better grades , and we are determined to close them all out before the opening of our new juvenile department , which next season will be on the second floor of our building. A large line of Boys' and Chil drens' suits of all sizes some very fine goods and elegantly made also a lot of knee x > ants and long pants are marked down to one-half their EXTRA. A manufacturer who heard that we are doing a large business , and thought that we could dispose of most any quantity of goods , sent us last week a big lot of striped summer coats Mens' and Boys' with instructions to sell them for his account. We did not want to accept them , as the lot is too large and the season late , and told him so , but he wired us to dispose of them at any price we pleased , so we have de-r cided to mark them 15o APIECE. It is almost giving them away , but it is not our loss. They are new patterns and all sizes. All goods marked in plain figures and at striotlv one price at * Nebraska Clothing Company , Cor.
