A ChnitKO Comes Over Him nt Night
JoVnntHft Tc'Ntnmcnt nml Gives
a Third Version of Jits
Innocence.
Joo'rt Day nnd Nljjlit Drontni.
Yesterday morning Chief Scavoy again took
fihcllenbcrgCt to his ofllcc. After an hour's
duration the conference came to n , close. At
g the close both were met by TUB URK man
and Sh llenbergcr granted an interview. Ho
was looKlng bright , in fact llko n gar back
woods groom on the morning of his prospeo-
tlyo nuptials.
Said the chief : "Joo ( meaning Shollen-
lorger ) | has told mo o story. It is the third
A ono I have received from him. It does not
- harmonize with ntty other. I have been tr.vlng
* to straighten out the stories , but Joe gets
mixed us to dates. Ho feuls bettor this
t inornlni : than ho has since ho came hero. Ho
wants mo to get hlrn n testament and I In
tend to bring him ono this afternoon. "
"Joe. " with an innocence childlike , almost
nnceKc. In response , tr > a number of In
quiries , sntdi "It is like this. I
don't ' think I'll say anything. " The next
mlnuto ho would answer questions ,
i but in his own peculiar Jerky way. There lane
no doubt , however , that ho has admitted the
I connection with the Jones murder.
"Why have you told Chief Soavoy those
Ate | _ Btoncs , JooJ"
5 No answer. '
"Did you toll him that you had been to the
Pinnoy forml"
No answer.
"Whv did you admit that you had burled
the bodies , when you said that you had not
been In Omaha ) "
Joe simply looked Into vacancy , but vouch-
eufcd no answer.
"What story did you tell Chief Seavey to
day I"
" 1 told him that I was innocent. "
"When did you make up vourmlndto
change the story you told him Tuesday ? "
"It was r.otno time this morning. "
"Was It after you had pone to bod1"
"yen , li was while I was in Ded. "
"Asleep I"
"No. "
"What caused you to change your mind !
Were you dreaming ! "
"No , 1 wasn't ' asleep. Something came to
mo. 1 don't know what it was. Itut I foil
happy. Something came to mo right here
| Indicating his bro > istj. That's why I told
the story. This morning I felt llko a
feather. "
"Do you want a tostamon U"
"Yes. "
"Why ! "
"Because I feel good. "
"Joo smiled llko an innocent.
' 'Did you ever say Neal had told you ho
bad killed a man in Whitman , Nebl"
. "No : I said ho had told mo ho had
killed n man out west and had
got out of it easily. "
"Did vou over sav that No.il had visited
you at Nebraska City 1"
"No. "
"Tell mo the story you told tno chief Tues
day. "
"It's like this. IA lone pause. ] I don't
think I'll say anything about It. "
Why ! "
' -"It wouldn't do monnygooil. "
Mf you did not admit having something to
do with Ncal , why do you change your
story 1"
No reply. Then Joe asked n question.
.What paper published the story about
me this morningi"
"run Ben , " ho was told.
' . "Well that's been done [ hesitatingly | a
man who In at liberty ought [ another long
/ jttusoj . I don't think I'll say anything
ubout It. "
> - And so the talk went on. Yet It was moro
tiresome to the reporter than It was to iho
"prisoner.
The changn of heart which caused Joe to
chantro nls story of Tuesdiiv.is proof of the
admission referred to.
Chief Seavoy said that thn story
told Tuesday was corroborative of that
first given , but that In attempting
-to verify certain dates , Joe broke down com-
plctoly : 1 ho tfno principal date was that on
which Shcllonborijer loft Nobraslta City and
' "camo UD here. Ho first denied having bcon
In Omalm in three years. Tnen ho said ho
had bocn here but a few weeks neo , but the
data could not. bo decided upon.
' "Will you toll another Htory tomorrow ? "
"No , I won't tell 110 moro stories. I no < V
/ " stick to this une. If they hang me , and they
can If they want , they'll hang an innocent
man , "
Chief Soavoy said that another feature
of JOQ'S confession was that itseomod to in
volve another man , a thlra rarty.
This muy bo inferred also from the ref sr-
enco to the man "at Jlborty , " of whom ho
epokc above- .
"This tnornme , however , " said the chief ,
Vttio first thing Joe said to me was , 'If you
nre hunting n third man , chief , stop it , be
cause what I told you about it is all un
true. ' "
Joe Is certainly a mystery.
Sl'icllonbprKOr Gets His Trstnnionf.
The fact that Shollenborgor thoroughly
feels himself a totally and Irrodeomaoly
doomed man came from his own lips yostor-
dav. As related to a UISR reporter at 4
o'clock yesterday afternoon by Chief Soavoy
hlmsolff the making of the acknowledgment
was as. follows :
' Shclleiborgor and I had been closated to
gether for some time again today , when ho
broke ono of his long spells of silence by ex
claiming :
' "Now I am going to tell you the whole
thing that is , something I have not Told you
yet nnd It la thl * : Chlof Soavey , I know ,
juki'ns well as I am right hara before you ,
und Just as well us I itnow that I am nlivo at
tills moment , that nothing can save mo from
the gallows. I am going to hang for this
I know It , I feel It right iu hero /pointing to
Ills broatt ] . But I don't fool so bad about it
ns 1 did. It nindo mo fuel bettor to say this
to you. '
"Then the fellow lapsed Into another of
Ills spoils of silence , which I could induce
him to braalc only by abandoning tbo moro
leading questions , und trying to clear up in
consistencies as to his statements regarding
the dates of his various movements. "
The chief brought the tottamont tbo pris
oner had uski'd ' for. It is u hondsdmo , gold
faced llttlo book , and Shellcnbergor exhibited
ubout the sumo sort of glee at receiving it
that u llttlo boy docs whou ho gets his 11 rat
pair of hoots. The chlof says if ho asks fern
n minister or priest ho will get him ono , or n
dozen of them , together with a church choir
or two , should hli fitful fancy so ne.ilre. Ho
nays that under such peculiar circumstances
und moods ai are presented In Shollcnbar-
gor's case at tuu present time , ho is a great
bolluvor in the ofllcaoy of a policy of gratia
cation.

THE BEGINNINGS OP THIS WEST.
ilcr. Wlllard Rente's Interesting His
torical Lecture.
Her. Wlllard Scott spoke at the Young
Men's Christian Association Thursday night
on "The LScplnntngs of This West. " The lecture -
turo VMS Interesting throughout , nnd very
instructive , the facts presented being clothed
In an attractive form , and a subject which
might otherwise have boon insipid was made
palatable to the audience , 'iho ' following
will give nn Idea of the substance ot the l c-
tdre :
In passing through the country from east
to west wo got a very meager conception of
Its extent , and our impression of It is that It
Is a region through which wo pass vcrv
swiftly nnd sco very llttlo , Whllo famil
iar with the east , nnd sometvhnt ac
quainted with our own section of the
west , wo know little ot tbo country
between , nnd it is this region , or "Tho Be
ginnings of the West , " of which wo speak.
Till * country was or glnally traversed by
two classes of explorers the Spaniards
from the southwest , who penetrated as far
as the Platte rlvor , and gave it its nnmo ,
nnd the French , or Canadians from the
northeast. The latter under the leadership
of Father Marquetta ana LaSallo penetrated
to the Mississippi , and thcnco to the Gulf of
Mexico. Tholr purpose was partly explora
tion and partly missionary work carrying
the gospel to the Indians , The idea was to
elevate the Indians , but the experiment
proved that so far from elevating the Indi
ans the Indians elevated the French back
wards. At the time of the peace of Alx-la-
chapollo , 1743 , tno English occupied only the
sea const , nowhere extending more than SOU
miles from the Atlantic , while the Ficnch
occupied nil the region west of the Allo-
fthony mountains , from Canada to the gulf.
The French had n very convenient plan by
virtue of which they secured possession of
the country. It was this : They claimed
all the region of country drained by
the rivers \vhlch they explored , nnd thus
when La Sallo sailed down the Mississippi
in his txvcnty-fcot boat , bearing aloft the
banner of Franco nnd shouting for Louis
XIV. , ho claimed the entire basin of that
river for his sovereign.
The plan of the French was to keep the
English on tbo east uf the Allegheny moun
tains and in addition to pasffdown Lake
Champlam , Lnko tirorgo and the Hudson
river und divide the English colonies on the
coast. This was prevented by the Iroquois
Indians , or Five Nations of Now York , who
were hostile to the French and defeated
them and drove them back into Canada.
There were three reasons why it did not
seem probable that the English would gain
possession of this western country , viz. :
The French bad It , which is nine points of
low , they were proud of It , nnd were
ready to advance any amount of money
to defend It ; Canada wai nn hier
archy and its governor could proceed In
stantly to carry out any plan of defcnsd
which ho conceived , while the English colonies
nies wore compelled to wait upon each other.
In suite of these facts , within seven years
the French did not possess a foot of territory
in this entire country. This was the situa
tion ut the close of the French and Indian
war.
war.Tho question now was : "What was to
prevent tUe country from becoming nil Eng
lish ? " or rather , "Which would bo , English
English , British English , or American Eng
lish ) " The English government and the
colonies soon came in contact , and the ques
tion was settled by the revolutionary war , a
war fought to decide whether or not the col
onies could bo taxed without representation.
This latter question was settled , ilistby the
Now England soldiers in buff uud blue , who
met the Uritish ut Lexington and at Con
cord ; second , by the now whicn in England
under the leadership of William Pitt , who
favored the colonies ; and third , , by the sur
render of Uurijoyno nt Saratoga and tlio ou-
llstincnt of tbo sympathy and assistance of
Franco.
While the English were occupied with the
colonies on the oust tno "ouckskins" of west-
otn L'cnuKylvunia , Virginia und South Carolina
lina were Creeping ever the mountains and
settling in the vulle.v of the Mississippi.
Tboy wore sturdy Scotch-Irish Presbyter
ians , who looked upon the Indians as Philis
tines , uud look every occasion to slay them.
They believed in forconiination and that ,
they were foreordained to this work. When
the war was over they were hero , and hero
they remained. .It was largely through the
diplomacy ot John Jay and John Adams in
Paris that the possession of this region was
secured ( o iho colonies. The fact tnat the
colonies alreudy had it carried considerable
weight. Through tno efforts of Maryland
the country west of the Alloghenics und
north or the Ohio river became public prop
erty in 17ir. ! ' 1 his creation of the "eminent
domain" was the ryily thing which could
have made the union of the colonies possible.
It wiia the llrst thing of which they spoke
with a "we" und an ' 'our. "
Such was the development of "Thn Begin
nings of This West. "

teen years of ago , and was given to the
Spllinolrt by her parents when aho wa * an
Infant , the agreement being that the S Ut-
neks were to adopt her and bring her up 'a *
their own , they having no children. No
Iccrnl steps were over taken to adopt the
child , and in 18S3 Spillnck , It will bo remem
bered , committed "suicide , llr.it shooting his
wife , from the effects of which she died In n
few days , lloforo she died she made u will
bequeathing all her property to the girl Jo-
scphlna. A brother of Splllnok , ono Anton
Spilinck , sot up a claim to the estate on the
ground that the girl was not the child of the
couple and that undue influences had been
used. A cross suit was instituted making
Anton and three other brothers defendants ,
the last three being residents of ' Bohemia.
The suit Involves n point ot law which has
never been decided tn this state , namely ,
whether the contract , which was virtually
entered Into between the girl's patents nnd
the Splllnoks , although never legalized or re
duced to writlpg. will hold in preference to
the claims of a blood relative.

BENNETl'S CONTUAOr.
It Does Not Giro Him n Monopoly of
the Gnrbaeo Business.
Thoro.was n jury trial of a case before
Judge Helsley yesterday afternoon , involv
ing a question of interest to residents of the
city cenerally. Garbage Master Bennett
had Henry Combs and Jessie Clydo arrcstod
fordisposlng of tbo garbage of tbroo or four
of the larger hotels , restaurants , private
houses , etc. , in the city at a stated price per
month. The idea in Bonnett's mind was
that in so doing Combs and Clydo were en
croaching upon hii fat contract with the
city. Bennett prosecuted under the ordi
nance , which makes it a misdemeanor for
any one to engage in the business of hauling
garbage without first placing himself under
the supervision of the garbage master , or
words to that effect.
Honnett , could not. however make his
construction of the ordinnnco stick.
Tno construction that prevailed was ,
in effect , that in this free coun
try of America n hotel or restaurant keeper
or n private citizen could sco 10 the hauling
away of the garbage from his place by any
body ho might see lit to employ. Some of-
the hotel nnd restaurant men claim they
have been bled outrageously in the past by
the garbage master , and propona hereafter
to light nn effort at a repetition of the prac
tice. Combs and Clydo have , it seems , suc
ceeded in getting away eaverul big jobs Irom
tbo oQlcial muck handler , and this is what
raised the iutter's ire.
The jury was composed of well known
business men , who returned a verdict of not
guilty.

The anniversary entertainment given in
Hunt's ball Tuesday night in honor of the
birth ofKobert Emmet iva's an unqualified sue
cess and reflected much credit on the efficient
committees who had been working unceas
ingly for weeks in itslbehalf. When ilov.
D. W. Morearty called the audience to order
every available seat was , occupied and the
aisles were packed with enthusiastic listen
ers who flllod every Inch'of standing room.
The stage front was tastefully decorated
with American nml Imh''flags , the contra
piece being a portrait jof Itobert Emmet
delivering his speech in tho.dock. On the
atago were seated Kov. Joba Williams ,
T. W. Morearty , Os < i. , and John
Shea , esq. , the speakers'of the -vonIng.
in company with City Treasurer John
Uush of Omaha , the chairman of the moot
ing. Occupying stints on the stage also
were Rev. D. VV. Moriority of South Omaha ,
Jeremiah Howard of South Omaha , and ox-
Councilman Michael Leo. Moses P. O'Brien ,
Esq. , Dr. Riley and T , J. Fitzmorns of
Omaha. s
liuloro introducing the participants in the
evening's programme Chairman Rush con-
cratulated the Irishmen of Houth Omaha in
tneir commendable display of patriotism in
coinmcncing where tnnir brethren in Omaha
had left off in remembering the anniversary
of Ireland's martyr hero , Robert Jiinmot.
Parnell's victory ever his enemies and
trnducors was referred to in glowing terms ,
and a glorious victory for the Irish cause
predicted in the end.
Miss Fannie Arnold sang "Kathleen
Muvournoen" so grandlj that she was com
pelled to respond to an encore , when she
rendered that pleasing Irish melody ,
' Dermott Astoro. " Miss Mngcio Swift of
Omalia playing the accompaniment.
, T. J. Moriarty , csq , the Orst speaker , paid
a feeline tribute to the memory of the young
irishman whoxo sad ending iho gathering
had mot to commemorate. Emmet's unsel
fishness , his patriotism and his heroism were
pictured in beautiful language. As a fitting
close to his tribute to Emmet Mr. Moriarty
read' the last words of the bora ( n his mas
terly and memorable speech on the dock.-
Mlss'Stacia Crowley recited the patriotic
revolutionary poem , "At Montnouth , " which
tolls of the death of Molly Stark , the daring
Irish woman gnnner. It aroused enthusiasm
and In response to a recall Miss Crowley recited -
cited the humorous story of "A Fair Little
MaidofTralee. "
Miss Maggie Rush sang with maidenly
sweetness tlio prouy Iri Ji ballad , "Sho is
Far From the Land. " The llttlo lady is a
favorite with South Omaha audiences and
although she was Buffering from indisposi
tion she was compelled to answer loud and
prolonged recalls. She sang even moro
swcetlv "Choice of my heart , " accompanied
by her sister Miss Mamie Ru h.
Rev. John Williams , pastor of St. Barnn-
bus Episcopal church in Omaha , was down
for the principal speech of the evening. Mr.
Williams' address , while lacking tbo ilcry
eloquence of most Irish orators , was full of
wise counsel and sensible advice to Irish
men. Ho doulorod antagonism and faction
alism among patriotic Irishmen , because
oven one-half of England was as outspoken
as Erin's sons In demanding justice for the
Emerald isle. Mr. Williams' atMrcss was a
patriotic , eulogistic and eloquent tribiuo to
Emmotand the character of his countrymen.
Miss Faunio Arnold followed Mr. Williams ,
sluglnfr "Tho Kerry Dancos" and "Kitty of
Coioralno. " John C. Shea of Omaha deliv
ered the closing addrass , brief but full of
force and vigor. The last number on the
programmn was the singing of tbo Irish na
tional anthem , "God Save Ireland. " by James
1 * . Murphy of Omahu.
After tno entertainment the participants
in the programme Jonjoyod n supper at , Vnlk-
or's restaurant to which ample Justice was
