day.Judge
Judge Carson was among the attentive
listeners to Judge Loofbourow's charge
to the jury in the Coffman case.
Frank Shinn , the Carson attorney ,
was in the city , yesterday and took a
tour of inspection through the new court
house. Ho moved into this county just
thirty years ago next Sunday. The ,
contrast between then and now struck
him forcibly us ho gazed upon the beau
ties of the now structure. Thirty years
ago there was an old cotton \\oou log
court house. The jail was also of cottonwood -
wood , and the common way of speaking
of jailing a man was that "he was in the
cotton wood. " The present site of the
court house was then nothing but a sun
flower field.
The CoflTninn Case.
In the district court yesterday most of
the time was taken in the arguments of
the Coffman ease. Colonel Daily closed
the defense at noon , and after dinner
Mr. Ware began the concluding nrgu
mont for the prosecution. He spoke for
nearly two hours , closing shortly before
4 o'clock. The charge of the judge
was about fifteen minutes long , very
clear and very fair. It was shortly after
4 o'clock when the jury retired to the
upper chamber , which is the first time
that room has been occupied.
At a late hour last night the jury was
still out , and no prospects of an early
agreement upon a verdict.

Quiet But Firm Strikers.
The name Sabbath-like stillness that
has prevailed about the Kansas City
roundhouse since the beginning of the
strike , was noticeable yesterday. No
tices were posted conspicuously about
:
the premises forbidding all persons not
in the employ of the company from
trespassing , and also General Manager
Merrill's order in regard to the strikers
going back to work. Master Mechanic
Bridonstein informed a BEE reporter
that the strikers were a very gentle
manly set of men and that there was no
danger whatever of their doing any
damage to the property of the company ,
but the precautions were taken to guard
against any mischief that might bo at
tempted by tramps or other outsiders.
Ono switch engine was busy in the
yards and five more wore locked up in
the roundhouse , only one of them being
lired up , that beinjr No. 0 , to take out
the evening passenger. The incoming
morning train , duo at 0:85 : , did not ar
rive until 3:80 : , nearly six hours late.
No. 8 , the early morning train re
cently put on , has been abandoned , to
gether with the flyer.
Deputy Marshal Clough hovered
about the yards , but his olliclul duties '
wore not very heavy.
There are some whisperings heard of
possible trouble on some of the other
lines centering hero. There is largo
quantity of freight which has been con
signed to the Chicago , Burlington Ss
Qulncy , and much of this has been
thrown on to sidetracks ns "scab"
freight , as it is called. It is declared
that if orders Are received to move , this
freight there will be a collision at once ,
which will leaA to a rescinding of such !

nay that the policy of that road has been
to underpay the engineers. Th'o road
claims to pay full wages after three
years' ' service , but it Is claimed that
very soon after an engineer roaches full
pay something is apt to happen by
which ho is dismissed , and his place
filled by raising u fireman , and paying
him the low wagrs for the first year ,
then gradually Increase It. and then lot
him jump off as did his predoce sor. It
is expected that the issue of doing away
with all clnsHifieatlons.of this sort will
bo forced. It has already been sub
mitted and a decision IB awaited.

Took a Tumble.
Robert T. Fair , a pump and wind mill
dealer , fell from the Indian Crook
bridge Tuesday evening while return
ing homo from a trip down town. Ac
cording to his own version of the affair
ho must have been in a state of partial
intoxication , as he states that ho mot a
couple of ladles whom ho did nbt know
and whom ho saluted .with "Good oven-
ing. " The next thing ho know he was
taking a rapid flight through space ,
and soon landed on terra tlrmn in so
violent u , manner as to completely use
him up. A colored man who saw him
fall procured assistance , and the injured
man was taken to his homo , 274 Har
mony street. Dr. Lacy was summoned
and found that the victim had two
ribs broken , and a gash in his scalp
about three inches long. The injuries
were patched and Fair is getting along
as well as could bo expected.
There was some talk yesterday
of a suit for damages being
brought against the city , and Chief of
Police Mullen called on the injured
party to see whether there was any
'truth in the report.
The place where the accident oc
curred is entirely unprotected by any
railing. There is a foot walk on the
west side of the bridco. but the cnst
side has never been floored , although
the stringers arc in place for one. There
is nothing but the fnimo work of the
bridge on that side of the driveway , and
there are several places largo enough
for a man to walk through. It is doubt
ful whether a damage suit would amount
to anything in this particular case , but
the authorities should at once sec to
having the place repaired , before an ac
cident occurs there that would cause a
heavy drain upon the city's purse.
Criminal Cases.
Several cases were quickly disposed
of by Judge Loofbourow yesterday after
noon , or rather , were disposed of by the
prisoners themselves , who concluded to
plead guilty rather than stand trial.
Harry Winn was the firs > t of these. Ho
was indicted for obtaining property un
der false pretenses , using a worthless
chock.
John Frances was brought before the
bar on two charges of larceny. Ho
pleaded guilty to ono , and Colonel Daily
had the other case dismissed. Frances
is an old man , about seventy , and his
trouble scorns to have boon the out
growth of drink. Ho presented a de
plorable condition , and the prosecuting
attorney suggested that when the time
came for sentence the greatestelemencj
possible bo shown him in view of his ago
and feebleness. The old man had been
without his accustomed chow of tobacco
for weoksj the prisoners not being furnished
nishod this luxury , and not agreeing
with Blaine as to its being a necessity
Ho improved the opportunity to beg i
chow from a bystander , and the pleasure
it evidently afforded him as ho rollei
the sweet morsel under his tongue
quickly dried the tears which had rolled
down his wrinkled checks as he wai
having his case adjusted.
Adams , who stole a , team of horses
concluded to plead guilty. He has been
quite fierce 'for u trial ever since the
railway strike began , and it seemed tha
the witnesses would not be able to reach
hero to testify against him. When thoj
unexpectedly appeared the other day
having driven across the * country , h <
weakened , and concluded to throw him
self on the inorcy of the court.
Ono prisoner when asked if he was
guilty , replied : "Idon'tknow. I'll have
to sco my lawyer first. "
There are a number of small criminal
cases to bo tried yet.
An indictment has been found against
N. A. Seampns , the veterinary surgeon ,
charging him with embezzlement. It
is claimed that he sold a horse for some
farmer and failed to turn over the
money. Ho secured Sapp & Pusoy to
defend him.
Saturday morning those who pleaded
guilty will bo sentenced.

Clark's Defense.
W. J. Clark , arrested for Bigamy , has
been raleasod on bail. Ho deposited
$1,000 in cash , and this bond was ap
proved. It is understood that Clark's
defense will be on strictly legal grounds ,
rather than moral. It is claimed that
his first wife obtained a divorce from
him before he came with his present
wife into this state , and that if there
was any bigamy on his part it was in
Michigan , whore ho lived with his
present wife , before coming to Iowa.
Of course , if ho can establish this
claim , that ho never cohabitated with
his present wife in the state of Iowa
before the divorce freed him from the
other wife , his way of escape seems
clear , as he can hardly bo tried here for
a crime committed in Michigan. It is
further claimed that when his present
wife found that ho had been married ,
she was very angry , but that ho pacified
her oy deeding her a house and lot. in
Lincoln , and giving her $300 In money ,
whereupon she signed an agreement
not to prosecute him. When her mind
became somewhat affected on account of
her delicate condition , she bqgan talk
ing about the matter , and then outsiders
stopped in and caused it to bo taken
into the courts. Ho expects to remain
hero , or in Omaha , engage in business ,
and when the case is cleared up expects
to bo reunited to his last wifo. Such is
the Clark .side of the scandalous affair.

A very enjoyable muslcnlo was given
; csterday nttcrnoon at the rooms of the

persons wore present , which embraced a
najority of the music lovers and artists
of the city. The following programme
was rendered :

numbers were the last three upon the
programme. Miss Rustin showed
herself to bo possessed of
much more than ordinary ability. Her
execution and interpretation exhibited
good technique. Miss Franko is pos
sessed of a good voice , rather robusto in
quality , which has hod the benefit of
good schooling. By their appearance
at this time these ladies have made a
largo circle of admirers.
The room in which the musicnlo was
given , is the second story of the Mueller -
lor block , which the proprietor has
fitted up with a stngo and comfortable
sittings expressly for this kind of enter
tainment. It answers the purpose of
its arrangement most -admirably. Mr.

Badly Broken Up.
St. Louis Globe-Democrat : A man
with his head in a cage , and his neck
sent to the right , attracted considera
ble attention recently at the Murray hill
Hotel , Now York. As ho walked ho
ilmped painfully. In his shirt bosom ho
were a large cluster diamond pin. Ho
was Barney Baldwin , who thinks ho has
Ijeen more broken up than any livintr
man. His injuries include a broken
neck , two broken logsa broken arm ,
five broken ribs , and a broken collar
bone. Ho tells this sto/y : "I was born
and brought up in Nt r York , " ho said
to-day. "I am thirty-six years of ago ,
but my mother and sister , who live thir
teen blocks away from here , don't know
what a fix I'm ' in. They think I'm in
Australia. I was yardmaster on
the Louisville & Nashville rail
road and it was on March
19lustin the yard at BirminghamAla. ,
that the throttle of an _ engine got out
of order and the engine ran wild. I was
on a caboose with six cars attached.
When the engine struck the section I
was shaken off. In the fall I dislocated
my shoulder , broke my right arm at the
elbow and my leg at the anklo. I threw
my right leg'ovor ho foot-board of the
engine and broke that leg in two
places. The ash-pan of the engine
passing over moi broke five ribs and
crushed six vertebra ) of my neck. "
"I was unconscious for thirty-six
hours and was tolally blind for fourteen
days. I lay otf''H ' water mattress 127
days , and I was five months and seven
teen days in be ( } . Since that time I
have never laid down , because the ver
tebra ) of my neck are not knit together
yet , and if I sh'ould try , the vortobnu
would slip , press on the spinal cord and
produce unconsciousness. For four
months after tho-injury I felt stupid ,
and overT now and then passed off into
a trance that lasted two and one-half
hours. I have got so now that I can
sleep three hours a night in a sitting
posture , but I can not ho down. My
broken logs , ribs and arms have mond-
ud. It is the neck and splno that give
mo the only trouble. "
The physicians who pulled him
through were Drs. James B. Luckio and
Copohind C. Barclay , of Birmingham.
After giving a long list of eminent phy
sicians who had examined him , and pro
nounced him a curiosity too dangerous
to handle , ho said that ho had asked
thorn all if ho would over bo able to remove -
move the mask and got a night's sleep.
They could give him no encouragement.
