AVIio Is Pronounced Both Wealthy
and a Pauper.
In Hcnfcy & Hcafo.v's thcro lies dead a
man whoso name is supposed to bo Frank
Murray , concerning whom somebody must
bo lying. Ho died nt St , Joseph's hospital
on last Sunday morning. The undertakers
above mentioned wore called to take charge
of the body. They found present a man
named O'Neill , who claimed to bo a friend of
the deceased , und who stated that ho had
watclicd over him for a short time. Ho
said further that Murray's folks resided in
Rochester , N. Y. ; that ho knew where
Murray's ' trunk was ; that ho
would get the trunk , open it and
Ilnd the name and address of the dead man's
friends. Ho said that Murray was well-to-
do ; that two weeks ago Murray had paid a
Dr. Smith , who runt a hl'jhly advertised of
llco in ono of the buildings of this city , $200 ,
to bo cured of the dropsy , and that the euro
had not been effected. Ho said also ho
( O'Neill ) would see Dr. Smith and get him
to surrender some of the money alleged to
have been paid him by Murray to aid in the
burial. As a proof of O'Neill's intimacy
with Murray ho paid Patrick Heafoyof the
above linn , $45 in advance out of $50 of
Murray's money , which ho had with him nt
the time , saying at the same time ho woul d
keep the remaining ? 5 for himself.
O'Neill loft Heafey's ' to go to Dr. Smith's
and Murray's boarding house , but has not
smco been heard of by Heafey. Why has ho
not returned } If Murray was well-off in
life , his trunk would perhaps have some ma
terial , possibly money , which it might bethought
thought advisable to make away with. But
in so doing the scoundrel would consign the
dead man to a grave among strangers. It
was hinted that O'Neill had been bought up
to disappear. But whether this were well
founded or not can not bo asccrtalned.bccnuso
thus far no clue has been found as to where
Murray boarded or removed before going to
the hospital.
The Doctor Smith above referred to was
seen by a 13 nc mnn yesterday. Ho has
resided hero three months. Ho formerly re
sided hi Denver , wont thcnco to Lcadvllln ,
coming thcnco to Omaha. Ho said ho knew
Murray as a miner , under the name of Ko-
kome. in Denver ; treated and cured him of
the piles ; was paid ? i > for samo. In Lead-
villo Murray sought relief for another inter
nal ailment. The doctor said he could only
give him some mcdlcino because , ho ( the doc
tor ) was about to inovo to Omaha and could
not wait to cure. "ICokomo" said he thought
ho would coino to Omaha too , as it was as
Rood as any place. This was a strange reso
lution for a miner to make. The doctor
moved here. Mnrrav followed , and a couple
of weeks ago , the doctor says , called on him.
His bowels and liver the doctor says were in
a horrible condition. Ho had no money , his
landlord or landlady did not want to keep him
longer. The doctor suggested that he go to
the hospital and make application. Murray
was admitted and the doctor sayh ho paid § 10
for Murray's hoard and attendance for two
weeks. Murray died. The story is still in
complete. Its lack of completeness suggests
several qucrrics. Who is Murray 1 Did ho
live In Rochester ? Was ho a miner ! If so ,
why did ho move to a town around which no
mines are located * If Murray had no money.
where did O'Neill get the $50 which ho
claimed to be and gave up as Murray's ?
Where did Murray board or room in Omaha I
Whuro is O'Neill now ! O'Neill is described
as a short , thick set man , with chin beard ,
dark brown and soiled clothes. It Is possi
ble that some person who may read thcso
lines , if ho should sen the remains , would bo
able to Identify the same , or tell ] where the
unfortunate boarded in life. Thcro arc some
strange circumstances connected with the
affair which warrant investigation.

THE RAILROADS.
Not. so Stupendous Alter All General
Items of Interest.
On several different occasions the "only
great" railroad organ of the city has printed
leaded Items concerning a schema of the
Santa Fn In obtaining a continuous route
across the continent. A trafllc contract has
been made , so It was asserted , by which the
Erie road was to carry east bound freight
from Buffalo , whllo the Lake Shore and
Michigan Southern was selected as the Chi
cago-Buffalo lino.
First vice-president , C. W. Smith , says
then ) is no truth whatever in the report , and
further that the Santa Fo has no intention
of extending its system east of Chicago , or
of making any tralllo arrangements what
ever with any other road. The report , so
Air. Smith assorts , must have originated
from the recent arrangements made
between the Erlo and Wells ,
Fargo & Co.'s express , which operates
over the Santa Fo system , and which has no
moro interest than other companies and does
business with the road on the same terms.
So it will bo seen that the "stupendous
scheme" mentioned Is not so stupendous
after all.

The suit is to recover $ Hn ) W , a balance
claimed to bo duo for the construction ol a
system of waterworks for Hlulr. The con
tract , amounting to something over S1S.OOO ,
was made in 18b5 and the works tendered to
the city in December of that yc.ir. Water
was obtained from driven wells. The con
tract called for 800,000 gallons per day , but
the works did not furnish a quarter of that
amount. It is also claimed by the defendant
that the pipes leaked and had to bo uncov
ered and rccalkcd. The plaintiff maintained
that the requited amount of water could not
bo obtained from driven wells. In March ,
IbSO the city of Hlulr took forcible possession
of the works , had the pipes rccalkcd and en
gaged Joseph Hums to put clown additional
wells , It is assorted that Hlair now hns u

1IOI1HIITS' TI1UL.
The cnso of the stuto ngulust- Joseph Rob
erts , charged with criminally assaulting
Anna licllimui , an olght-ycaixild child , was
culled yesterday before Judge Grolf.
Hoberts appeared in court : dressed in his
coarse , blue llunuol shirt und rough clothes.
His wife , who Is u bright-looking woman of
about thirty years , occupied a seat neur him.
She was neatly dressed und seemed to take u
close interest In all the proceedings of the
trial. Anna Hellmnu , the little child upon
whom the outrage was committed , also oc
cupied a seat InBido the bar rail and was ac
companied by her mother. The victim of
Itobert's lust Is a bright.strong-lookiim child
for her years , and seemed to understand the
proceedings about her ovt-n beyond her
years. Her mother sat near her. waiting to
answer her call us a witness in the case. The
greatness of the crime for which the pris
oner is to answer made the work of secur
ing a Jury a very tedious one , and over
twenty men were called before twelve men
competent to try the case were found.
The foul story of the crime as it was perpe
trated was told by bho child In her direct ox-
auiluution. She stated that the defendant
had called U9r wto the Imru IB where she
flocksor cotton is used in any of their
fabrics. Do not forgot the price , only
