M THE OMAHA -DAILY BEE : TEUESDAY , NOVEMBER 1 , 1887 ; A BURGLAR AND ODTRAGER , Doeporato Villain Breaks Into a House and Aftaults a Girl. THE VICTIM PROSTRATED. Union Pnclflc Switchmen Looking for Houses' Hcalpfl Another Morning Flrc-Klley Mkcly to Die- Other City News. A Bold nncl Villainous Outrage. A dustnrdly outrage was committed at tlio private boarding house kept by Mrs. Juke Schrelnur , 1413 Chicago street , at half past 3 o'clock yesterday morning. Two of the domes tics , Nellie Hosldns and Minnie Chrlsjohnsou occupy a room on the ground floor in the rear of the house , and the weather beIng - Ing somewhat sultry , and their room close , they loft the back window hoisted. At the hour above mentioned , Minnie , who occupied the same bed with Nellie , and was also on the outstdo , was awakened by some ono touching her on the arm. She sut up In bed , only to sco the flguro of a ihau In front of her , and holding a revolver at her head. Ho ordered her to Ho down and keep still , threat ening to kill her if she made any outcry or attempt to alarm the house. She , In her oi- trcmc fright , obeyed the rufllan , who then turned to the window , , and ina subdued voice called : "Keep a sharp lookout there , parti. until I am through , then Jou can eoinoln , " thus indicating that there wore two of the fiends. " The man In the room then ordered Mlnnlo to awake her friend , which she did , and tell ing her not to stir on penalty of having her throat cut , the brute got into bed with the two girls. Ho immediately turned his atten tion to Nellie , and grasping her by the throat the two hciraii to strtiirile. It was at this critical juncture that , Mlnnlo sprang from the bed , and despite the. fact that she thoughtsho must encounter a second villian in the yard , she sprang from the window. To her delight there was no man there , and hurrying to the front of the house she screamed to Mrs. Kchrelner in her room above , and quickly succeeded in arousing the house. Stio was almost stupelicd with fear , but gave the gen tlemen boarders to understand that there was a man in her room , and thither they rushed together. They quickly burst in the door but the scoundrel had lied , leaving the outraged girl lying In- "tisililu across the bed. Search was at once lnstu.t < ( . ( i about the premises but no eluo to the man was found. Kate AVclrli , however , another domestic lnu.r this time eomo from her room above and she m > u uii ( . tmi seen a man run across the yard and scale u.o r. < Upo about the time Minnie's piercing shrieks broke upon the air from in front of the house. Sim obtained a tolerably fair look at the mis creant , and when the police , who had imme diately been sent for arrived , gave them a description which an hour later led to the arrest of Pat Uooncy , a young hoodlum of the toughest make. Ho was arrested in a baleen near the corner of Eleventh and Chicago streets , and asserting his innocence Was taken to Mrs. Schrcinor's and con fronted with Mrs. Welch. The latter , while she was almost certain , could not be positive , that ho was the man. Ho was conducted to the police station and arraigned before Judge Herku as a suspicious character. He pleaded not guilty , but was given twenty days in jail in order that ho might be in safe keeping until the outrage upon Miss Ho kins could be thoroughly investigated. Dr. Hlaph called up on the young girl yesterday morning and found her prostrated with nervousness and on the verge of hysteria. Her throat showed siirns of the severe clioking she had received , while her body and limbs were severely bruised and contused , Uooncy is a vile looking wretch , and the opinion Is that he Is the right man. _ THKV STRIKIS ? He tn I'll or Superintendent Pick- on HOII AnxloiiHly Awaited. The dissatisfaction among the switchmen employed in the Union Pacific upper and lower yards promises to result In a general strike of the men employed In all the yards unless the demands of Grand Master James Ij. Monaghan , in behalf of the Switchmen's Mutual Aid society , are not complied with. The presentation of their grievances was made yesterday bcforo Mr. Bliekcns- derfer , superintendent of the Nebraska di vision of the Union Puelllc and Mr. McClint- ook , terminal agent of the 15. & M. lines. A largo number of witnesses testified and Mr. Ullckcnsdcrfer reserved decision until the return of Superintendent Dickcnson , which is expected t > oino time during the present week. Grand Master Monaghan was seen yes terday at the AVIndsor hotel and asked concerning the trouble. He said : "The trouble is not of recent origin. It began homo months ago when the Switchmen's ' Mutual Aid society expelled P. H. Median , ono of the head ofll- cers of the lodg o. Ho was charged with crookedness , and it was proven to my mind that ho had been guilty of appropriating money belonging to the order. Median swore vengeance , and openly stated that ho would some time hold a position In the Union Pa- cillc yards that would enable him to put his foot on the neck of every man belonging to the society. At this time the upper yards were under the charge of Yardmaster Davis , and the lower ono of Yardmastcr Tighe. These men were and are common drunkards , and luivo been noted for their outrageous treatment of the men under them. Old , ex perienced and steady switchmen have been turned out and their places supplied by im ported mciii favorites of the two tyrannical yard masters. Most of them were drinking men , and utterly incapable of performing thu duties to which they were assigned. Meenan then began training with these men , and soon 'stood in solid.1 "Soon it was given out that Median had been appointed foreman in the lower yards , and ho proceeded I'tonco to make good his threats of revenge against the union men. Every indignity that ho could think of he heaped upon them , nnd while drunk , which was often , his abuse was simply outrageous , Tighe , in the meantime , rendered valuable assistance in helping Median in his revenge , and several old and trusted men wore sum marily discharged. This man Tigho is a con tinued drunkard , nnd was discharged from the Santa fo yards at Kansas Uity for drunkenness and neglect of duty. "All of these charges were substantiated Hy twenty to thirty witnesses before the onlcers of the road , and wo hope that our demand , viz. , the release of Median and Tigho from the yards will bo granted , If not there will undoubtedly bo a general strike. Wo don't care to what othet department they arc assigned , but wo won't linvo them in the yards if wo can help it. Davis resigned simply be cause ho dare not face an Investigation ant this ho told mo himself. The constitution ol our order is very conservative and especially provides against the admitting to mcmbcrshli of drunkards or criminals. Wo only admil competent switchmen nnd use every cndeavoi to protect the interest of the company and tin public at largo. I am going to Denver for f few days but bhall return as soon as Mr Dickeiison and shall then act according to hi : decision. " In connection with the above it Is stated bj men thoroughly acquainted with the work Ings of both yards that If the public couh only know of the neglect and incompetent of many men employed In the yards , of the fearful amount of drunkenness and thoabusi to which patrons of the road are subjcctci there wonld bo nn investigation ilemanilet instantly. If this is true the lives of citizen : urc in constant Jeopardy. MOIITUA11Y MATXKUS.

At a meeting of trio Omoim branch of the ? uget Sound co-operative colo'n.r nt their all Sunday afternoon , the question of co - pcratlon as applied to production was ably Iscussed by F. J. MoArdlc , the agent of the icntral society. The drift of his argu- nent was to show that under the rcbcnt co-operative system no person can bo oncst. because a premium is set upon dis- onest methods in business , manufacturers and commerce. Success is always honored iven by those who are the victims of tliis lystem. In co-operation , which only seeks .o secure in the result of their honest toil , : an honestly ever find Its true reward. Mr. Norman U. Smith , referring to the July of the members of this branch , , said Hint while the members on the colony site ivorknd hard to promote the interests of all ' .he members , the members in Omaha should bear in mind that they , too , had a duty to perform , Funds were much needed at the jolony site to develope struggling industries that only needed machinery to make them much more productive. The little hall was full , mostly by non- inoinbers who sought information by asking luestions. Music and singing interspersed : ha speaking aiid business. Seven new numbers wcro added to the roll. Sunday School Concert. The Sunday school of the Hanscom park M. E. churc gave its third concert Sunday , evening A largo number of ladies tad gentle men were present , and a most enjoyable evening was spent by all. The programme consisted of recitations and songs by the little folks , each of whom rendered his or her part in a decidedly pleasing manner. The church choir , composed of rich and pleasing voices , rendered a number of appropriate selections. A short address to the little ones was made > y Judge Fawcett.lateof Illinois. At thocom- iletlon of the programme subscriptions were taken , the result of which was the complete payment ot the Sabbath school indebtcdncbs , for the erection of the church. The audience was a thoroughly appreciative one , and the little participants in the evening's programme were accorded many eromiums for the rendi tion of their parts. The next concert will take place within three months , and earnest endeavors will bo made to make the affair even more pleasing than the one of last night. O'Xoll Quickly Disposed Of.

Our corner window this week gives you a small idea of what we are doing in the latter lines. Where could you get such a good scar let all wool shirts and drawers at 45c each , or such all wool seamless , socks at 15c a pair ? Other houses would think they give you bargains when they charge you twice the money for such goods. All goods marked in plain figures and at strictly one price , at Nebraska Clothing Co. , Corner Douglas and 14th , Streets , Omaha. ' Corner of 13th and Dodge Streets.
