She mild : "I was married when I was but fourteci years * of ago ; now I am thirty-eight. M ; parents resided hero in Omaha , aim the inai whom I have called husband for the pas fourteen years was a boarder at our house My parents were very strict with me , it truth , despite Iho fact that I was an enl : child , Ill-trcatod and abused mo , for some In explicable cause , from my Infancy. 1 neve : knew the love , the solicitude and watchfu care of a mother , for it was she who was PS pccially cruel to me. Mr. Welch was kind U mo In those days ; he talked and advisee with me , In fact made love to me and lUmll ; Induced mo to run uwuy from homo uni marry him. However , when 1 did finally con sent to take this step I knew no nffi'ctio : for the man ; it was simply n respectful re gard , and the hope ( hat In him I had fount u friend who would protect mo and give mi n happy home. We were married at Plaits mouth , and went to keeping house there Wo lived peacefully and happily , as hupp ] ness goes with those who have been so ill starred as to have never known what reii contentment meant , until after the birth o my second child. I have but two children and sweet children they arc , too , and I lov them with all my heart and soul , but I cai not sco them , in truth I do not know when they arc. But to go back : After Jennie wa born , my husband began to abuse me , am while ho never struck or beat me ho made mo work to support hit in idleness , and made our littl homo a hell on earth , sometimes , whc in ill-health myself , our condition was rcall a piteous one. Often there wasn't a bite t . cat in the house , and myself and childre would certainly have starved hnd it not bee for the generous intervention of neighbors. A Tear or so ago wo came to Omaha , and I too in boarders , ir.y husband refusing to coi tribute to my own or the children's supper Mr. Seward was one of our boarders. II used to bring things to cat to the house , fc myself and the children , and was very kin ' in other vvays. Mr. Welch became Jea OU8 and finally accused Mr. Scwar of evil designs and said ho had como there t break up our homo. Ho left , and then m lot became a harder one than over , my boari crsono by ono departed , until I found myscl In a position of abject want. Ono day in m desperation I sent for Mr. Seward. I meat to ask him for aid. Ho came and my hui band mot him , shook hands with him an asked him to stay with us. But 1m rcfuset After ho had gone Mr. Welch called m all the frightful names ho was capable o and I think bo can use the vile : language that ever tlowcd from humu lips. I loft him then , and went to Mn Dungrcon'B on Sixteenth street , and took I sowing. Ho took the children from mo , an kept up such a systematic course of pcrsi cuiion that I was obliged to leavehci secretly. I went to the corner of Ninth an Harney , and under the assumed name c Mrs. Stewart , again supported myself wit the needle. I changed my uamo in ordc that bo might not find mo. Oh , yes , I so.- Mr. Seward In the meantime. Ho was true , good friend of mlno and advise mo to return to my busbau and children and make another attempt 1 live happily. 1 did not do this I know tin it was useless. No , God is my witness , thei are no improper relations existing betwce Mr. Seward and myself. I hardly think would marry him wore I released , but ho hi my undying gratitude. I declined his ndvici to resume my story , and instead applied for divorce in the courts hero upon the groum of lion-support and extreme cruelty. Mr. Uicl ard Hall is my lawyer. On my taking th step Mr. Seward left Omaha. Ho wei to Jackson , Mich. His mother was not e : peeled to live. Mr.wcleh had threatened 1 kill us both , but Mr * Seward did not k > a\ through fear of him. Ho is a bully and coward , of course , and no honest man net have any fear of such creatures as h Mr. Seward returned last Monday. I sei for him to come to the Cozzens house , whei I have been residing for the past seven weeks , the change being made necessary I my husband ferreting me out at my prev ous abode. I told Mr. Julian , clui at the Cozzcns , and ask < to be protected from Mr. Welch.Well , M Seward called on mo. I told him my situ tion'aml ho said ho would see mo through n troubles at any cost. Monday evening , will Mr. Seward and another gentleman , ni thrco other ladles were in my room at tl .hotel , my husband , with a policeman , a ncared upon the scene and arrested us tin is , Mr. Seward and myself upon a foi charge manufactured by that man. " Such was the story of Mr Welsh. The husband's narrative , of cours varies from the above , and in substance vvi as follows : "Mi- name Is W. P. Welch , -li. E. Sowar a brnkcman on the Union Pacitlc railroad , the name of my wife's seducer. They ai both hero under arrest. The day ufti Thanksgiving my wife abandoned her lion and children and went oft with this snake human guise. Ho took her to u priva' ' boarding house on Cuming street , but boardc himself at thu Comma hotel. Thn people tlio Cuming stivet house put n Wife out when they learned who ai what she was , and she then woi to the Cozzens. I took Oftlcer Johnson thui last night and had them arrested on charge of adultery. My wife's mitiden nan was Sarah Jane Heard. Her father was well-to-do farmer. 1 married her when si was u young itirl. She was very pretty at 1 loved her dearly. I made n good suppo for her and wo were happy until Seward o teredour homo. Ho led my wlfo a.stray , di honored my name and my children and broke up my homo , should have killed him months ap The world justifies all such killings. And came very near murdering them both om it was on the U th of Juno last. I caug' ' them in the wino room of a saloon on Si tconth street. Her own father told me tin were in there. I went in with u club , bi when I was about to strike them , I thougl of my dear little boy and girl. Who woul bo left to care for them i The thought u manned mo and I rushed into the street , have always done well , and for twelve yea kept a livery Htabloutthocornerof Thirteen ! and Howard streets. No , there is no posslb prosiK'ct of a reconciliation between me at my wife she has gene too far. 1 pity her Uuing through with Mr. Welch the report sought out Mr. Seward in his cell. Ho rut her a line looking fellow , and seems nowise disconcerted over the position which ho linds himself. Ho fully corrob rated the wife's story , and was emphatic his denials of illicit relations with her. On being arraigned Mrs. Welch and Soi aril both pleaded not guilty , and not bi > ii ready for trial they were placed uhdcr bond of (500 each for tholr appearance no Friday afternoon. This bond they furnish' ' and wcro released. IlKDFOItn iISCJU8TKI > . Why Ho Has Ilceu Prevented Fro leaving the Council.

The stnnd he had : akon upon the pas question had Hlrendy b'ccn stated in the nupera. Thu contract with the gas rnmittiiy had been made bvn preceding council. If the city owed the gas corn- puny r > , .ri < W.r > 7 why the city should lay _ thut' amount. Hut as it ipppared from thu records , or ut least from the showing of the city auditor the city owed only KW.OOI ) . Ho favored the payment ol .hut sum , and if the gas company held that nore was duo them they could take the mater - : er to the courts. That was the proper place to adjust the difficulty. That was why he favored the payment of the amount upon which there was no dispute. Mr. Uedford further said that on the qucs- ; lon of the city hall he favored leaving the hall where It was originally Intended to lo cate it. Ho then said : " 1 am tired of this imslncss. 1 got tired last fall and f I could have done so would liavo resigned. But I could not do it without putting the c-ity to the cost ol M.ttX ) or Jl,800. I spoke to City Attorney Webster about the matter and was told that t was his opinion if I resigned , us I had been elected at largo , It would requlro another election all ever the city to elect my succes sor. That would require judges and clerks in every polling precinct in the city. About that time , you know , wu held u bond election , and I asked Mr. Wubster whether the judges and clerks In that election could not net in n similar capacity in the election of my successor - ser , and thus save expense. He said ho ilk ! not think it could bo. done. In other words , ho inclined to the belief that an extra corps of clerks nud Judges should bo employed , Now in March wo are going to hold another election ; this time , for bonds , and I had thought that at thosame time an election could ho called to select n sucecssorto mo.bul 1 fear from Mr. Webster's opinion , the tiling can't be done. It is just like this [ movinp his hand back and forth ] , as to whether I re main in the council. Last fall I got disgusted with the business. It interferes with mypri vate affairs. Now that I have taken the stand , I felt bound to take on the gas bill , il the gas company sees fit to ' do so , they may discontinue their relntions'with me , because I sell them their coal. " D. T. Mount was present during the con versatlon and held strongly to the opinior that the council could call a special electior for a successor to Mr. Bedford ut the same time as the bond election in March , and that the judges and clerks who-should ofliciate at that election could act in thu matter of thi successor of Mr. Bedford ut largo.

That's What the County ComtfllB elonore Ask the Voters. * " * 4 PERSUADED BY COUNCILMEN Who Go Ucforc the County' * legisla ture With Tales of Woe and the Story of Their Ex travagance. ' A Depleted Fund. Councllmen Hascall , Lee , Ford , Lowry , Vlanvlllo and Klerstcad , by way of prelude to their conference with the county commis sioners yesterday in reference to voting [ 50,000 in county bonds for grading purposes , ld a little tongue sot-too regarding munici pal affairs , and there was considerable loud : alk engaged in , which was finally silenced jy Chairman O'KcetTo ringing the bell on them. Mr. O'Keeffo said that as ho under stood the object of the meeting it was to hear From n committee of the council In reference to grading. Mr. Hascall replied that ho did not under stand it that wa ) ' . It occurred to him that he had read it in the newspapers that the commissioners contemplated a call for an election for voting $50,000 , In bonds for grad ing purposes. Mr. O'Keeffo ' responded by saying that the commissioners hud contemplated nothing of the kind , and furthermore they hod never spoken on the subject.He had been con sulted by Councilman Leo In reference to voting on the bonds , and ho ( O'ICceffe ) iiail said to Leo that there was no legal obsta cles in the way to prevent the commissioners asking the legal voters of the county If they desired to vote the bonds. Councilman Lee said that the general fund of the city was exhausted , and that the coun cil came to the commissioners asking a favor. If any grading was to bo done this year it was desirable that the county should stand her share of the expense , and it was his opinion that it would be a good investment. County Commissioner Turner was of the belief that the county had about all the ex penses it could stand , and he couldn't sco how the county was to bo bcnellted by grading in the city. Councilman Manvlllo repeated Councilman Leo's statement that the city finances were somewhat depleted , and if any grading waste to bo done this year tlio county woulil have to help the council out. Councilman Hascall ridiculed and criticised the people who had framed tlio city charter , alleging that they did not have the financial experience necessary for such an undertak ing. Ho alleged that the coun cil would have to give up grading unless the county came in and helped them out , and ho was positive that it would revert to the benefit of the county. For the council to stop grading would be a disaster to the city , and not a plc.isant one to anticipate. The council , ho confessed , had got themselves into a muddle over the city hull mutter , but they expected to get out of the mire they had fallen into. Councilman Kierstead said that the grad ing of streets would lead to improvements , and ho know of two streets that would put up $100,000 in buildings if they were gradect. Ho thought Omaha could go a little deeper in its bonded debt , and ho was confident that if the voting of $ ,10,000was submitted to the people it would bo unanimously carried. Chairman O'Keefo was in favor of voting $50,000 , as he thought that sum expended in cither grading in or out of the city would bo a benefit to the property owner and laboring man. He also took occasion to give the ex travagant councilmcn an underhand slap by saying "that it was true that the county got its work done cheaper than the city. " The councilmen went oil on a new tack by talking upon the proposed $1500,000 bonds for the Omaha , Yunkton & Northwestern rail way. Manville congratulated the commis sioners for going slow , and Ford suid.that . $100,000 spent in improving the county would be of more value to Oinuha and Douglas county than would $ UOO,000 spent on a rail road. road.Dr. . George Smith thought that the county should not stand in with the expenditure oi money for city purposes. It occurred to him that living in the west end of the county , grading within or up to the corporate limits , Would bo of no benefit to him. Councilman Hascall responded by saying that the doctor was actuated by sympathy foi people outside of Omaha , whom Mr. Huscal ! had always had a desire to reach. The onlj way that this could bo done was by grading and the expenditure o moncy. More pro- grcssivcness should actuate the people ol Omaha and Douglas county and they sbouldn'l bo afraid to snond a dollar. Dr. Smith denied that ho was opposed te improvements. Far from it. The idea he wished to convey was that the city clmrtei guvo tlio council authority- spend monej and make levys for street improvements which included grading , notwithstanding that the councilmen maintained that it dk not. not.Councilman Councilman Hascall insisted that the doc tor did not have a correct knowledge of tin stipulations of the charter. Councilman Klerstcad spoke-in the same strain , and was anxious to have the bonds voted. Commissioner Turner confessed that he was at sea , and inquired of the councilmcn il they did not have power to make a levy for grading. Councilman Kicrstead replied that the cost of grading was paid out of the balance in the general fund , but that owing to at : overlap the council could not fall back or that this year. The councilmcn then took their leave , anil the commissioners began the consideration of the proposition. Commissioner Mount submitted the follow ing resolution : Resolved , That it is the sense of this board that a proposition bo submitted to the legal voters of Douglas county as follows : "Shall bonds of the county of Douglas bo issued in the sum of $50,000 for the purpose of grading tlio public highways of said county. " Commissioner Anderson moved that the resolution bo referred to the committee on judiciary. This was seconded , but before n vote , could bo taken Mr. Mount arose ) anil said that on account of the fact that ho hut proposed it and was chairman of the judiciary committee , he favored its going to somoothei committee. On his motion it was turned ovoi to the linanco committee , and the commis sionurs adjourned. UKXCI1 AND UAU. District Court. TUB juur i > i Anur.ii : > .
