Tlio MlnUtcr' . * ' Trial.
Thcro was but little of u sensational nature
developed yesterday In the Mclmlck trial
The forenoon was taken up In a rather un
successful attempt on the part of the defense
to got In evidence concerning various mat-
tors. The state kept raising objections , ant
tedious legal arguments were so freely
sandwiched among the bits of evidence as to
render the session rather less entertaining
than uauul for the audlenco which was ol
usual size.
Mrs. Porter was recalled for further
cross-examination. The defense sought to
gain further Information from her concern
ing the letter which Mr. llelmick received
informing him of Palmer's character , aniJ
urging him to warn Mrs. Porter , as her
daughter was about to marry "Palmer.
David Oliver was recalled. The attorneys
for the defense spent -considerable time in
tryln ? to get this witness for the state to
face the jury In a satisfactory way. An
attempt was made to got Oliver to testify as
to a little episode which occurred In the corridor
rider of the court house n half-hour before.
It , seems that Oliver and other witnesses for
the state had expressed hot anger against
Griindel , ono of the witnesses for the dc-
feuso , and had informed him they were going
to "do him up , " or In some other way "got
oven" after they ( mould have returned to
Neola at the close of the trial. Many of the
questions were ruled out , Oliver denied
threats , but admitted having had a talk.
Jim Hardman , another witness for the
state , who was supposed to have likewise
threatened Grundol for testifying for the
defense , was culled to the stand. Ho ad
mitted talking to Grundol about his testi
mony. for ho thought Grundol had been
lying about him on the stand. Ho denied
threatening Grundol.
John Grundol was next called , and asked
concerning the sumo matter , but the defense
bad poor success in getting in his story , the
objections on the part of too state coming in
too thick.
Mr. Prudor was next called to the witness
chair. The purpose of his testimony was to
contradict Hardmun , who bad sworn that
on the night of the shooting ho was at homo ,
and that ho was not one of the egg-throwing
gang. Pruaer .testified that the
next day after the shooting , in
thu course of a conversation about the
affair , a man named Cooler rnado
the remark that ho would bet Helmick
would got clear , for the boys were on his
premises and in the barn. Hardman then
said , "wo were in the alley. " The witness
remarked , " 1 thought you weren't there ,
riardmahl11 "Well " Hardman said
, , cor
recting himself , "I mean the boys were In
the alloy. "
Mrs. Klsbton was called and interrogated
concerning a conversation had between
Palmer and Crissmnn in Juno. It was in
regard to the letter written by Crissumn to
Helmick concerning Palmer , and by which
letter Holmlck was urged to see the young
lady whom Palmer was courting and warn
her and her mother of Palmer's character.
Palmer was much oxcltod over the matter ,
threw his hat down in an ugly manner ,
swore , and said ho would settle with Hoi-
mick. The witness did not notice whether
Palmer had a revolver or not , she was so
frightened.
This closed the evidence for the day.
.Tudgo Thornoll has not announced his do-
clslon as to whether ho will permit the letter
referred to go to the jury.
Adjournment was taken until Monday
morning at 10 o'clock.

Policy or tlio Now Administration.
Much curiosity bus been manifested as to
what policy will bo pursued by Mayor-Elect
Macroa and the coming administration. The
newly elected executive chief nas not been
very communicative on the subject , and ho
lias not been regarded as a promising subject
by the newspaper Interviewers. It Is well
known that ho holds very positive opinions ,
but ho has exhibited no Intention of making
them known until after he takes his seat in
the mayor's ' chair. Several' of cho anxious
ones have tried to obtain some little Inkling
of bis Intentions In the way of appointments ,
! > 'H ' the result failed to satisfy them. This
Doing the case , speculation Is rife as to who
this appointees will bo , and as speculation it
will continue for several days to coiuo.
As the mayor is ex-ollluio tbo Jhoad of the
police department , the appointment of n
chief and of the mombora of the force must
necessarily bo made by him , and ho has
been besieged by applicants. A dollr.lto
answer , however , is something that Isliot
jlven , aud none of the aspirants for a posl-
.lon in the city's employ will Know the result
if their application until the mayor report *
its appointment ! ) to the city council , it
may bo conjectured how many there are
who desire a place ou the force when It la
mown that four names are mentioned for
the position of chief. This quartette con
sists of Dr. Wade Gary , Capt alu. James An
derson of the merchants police , O. H. Lucas ,
.lia present Incumbent.nnd Theodora Gulttar.
Bach has inoro or less of a following , but
as yet neither can positively claim the
endorsement that each is so anxious to re
ceive.
Another subject of mnoh speculation la
what course will bo pursued with reference
to the closing of saloons and gambllnu houses ,
and the interest that la felt lu the mutter la
lot confined to the sporting class. In order
to aicortam what would bo douo In this
direction u Bin : reporter called at the ofllco
of the ciayor-olect yesterday afternoon. That
gentleman was fouud quietly smoking mid
chatting withn few friends , and It was evi
dent that the prospect of coining cares was
lot wearing upon him , neither did ho mani
fest any uneasiness ever the situation. Ho
admitted that ho had boon besieged by u
jreat many applicants , but stated tbi.t thus
far he bad made no appointments. Ho said :
"I will have thorn all ready to announce to
.ho council , but It will hardly ba at the meet-
ug on the 17th tnst. 1 will present them at
lomo subsequent time. There are plenty of
applicants , and I begin to understand what
the president of the United btutcs has to
contend with. If the rest of tbo country fur-
ulatict ai many lookers after federal oBlce In
proportion as this city does for municipal po
ftitlon * I don't t'linn I would care to take the
president's place , although ho cm dodge the
ofllco seekers bettor than the mayor can
Mayor Hotircr called on mo this morning
and gave mo a llttlo of his experience. B.v
the way , 1 read In ono of thn papers thit 1
was hard at work on my Inaugural message
and that nlayor Hohrcr was jus
as busy on his farewell message
that was news to mo , nnd Mayor Hohror was
equally surprised to learn it. The fact Is
ttmt neither of us have yet begun work on
thoio documents. "
"Do you object to stating what the policy
of llio now administration will bol"
"In what respect I"
'Well , ilrit with reference to the saloons
and gambling houses I"
" 1 suppose that the oambllng houses wit
bo closed and the saloons will to regulated
M > understanding from the notice to gam
biers that has boon published In the city pa
pers la that the gambling houses are to ba
closed by tbo 15th of this month. This Is to
bo dona by those who signed the petition
and they have pledged themselves to furnlsl
the necessary money to do It. They wll
close the places and then- am expected tc
keep them closed. "
"And you propose to do this I"
"I do , most assuredly. "
"In what way do you Intend to regulate
the saloons ) "
"B.V Keeping thorn closed Sunday , nnd requiring
quiring thorn to close at a regular hour every
night. I don't think the people demand that
they should bo closed altogether. "
"What hour will be fixed for their clos
Ingl"
"Well , I don't know positively probably
11 o'clock. Folks ought to bo homo by tha
time , and if there are no gambling houses
the saloons ought to bo willing to close at
that hour. I believe they nro allowed to remain
main open until 12 o'clock in Omaha , butl
see no necessity for it. "
"When you say that they must bo closet
nt certain times I suppose you moan ut both
ends ! "
"Well. I think they will find out that I
mean what 1 say , and that when I say 'close
up' it doesn't mean dodge in the back way. '
' Now. what will bo your police policy i"
" 1'ho llrst thing will bo to convince the de
partment that there Is n head to it , " was the
decided answer. "Affairs In this dlrcotloi
will bo changed so that n policeman will com
inaud some respect. The force wllL bo man
aged In a business-like manner , and J. hope
to see it very tmiuh improved. "
"Will it bo the policy of the administra
tion to continue making public improvements
during the next two years ! "
"Certainly , to some extent. The flnancla
condition of the city must govern that. The
resolutions adopted by the citizens' eonvon
tion demand retrenchment in this direc
tion. "
"Do you propose to follow out the line o
action indicated by those resolutions ! "
"Yes , they seem to just about meet my
ideas. "
"What do you think of the proposed ordi
nance cutting down the salaries of the city
ofliuials ! "
"I have not looked Into the matter. Mayor
Kohrer stated that he did not uolievo the
ordinance would pass , and that ho is in favor
of raising instead of reducing them. However -
over , we will try to give the city a good ani
satisfactory administration , ut whatever
sum tbo salaries are tlxcd. "
At this juncture the doctor was callet
away , and the outlining of the coming policy
was at an end.
It seems that Peter Wind , the alaorman-
elect from the Second ward , is of much the
same opinion as the mayor-elect regarding
applicants. Ho says that ho thought it was
all over when the polls closed , but ho now
realizes his mistake. Ho has been . con
stantly harassed nnd anuoyed , and ho is ol
the opinion that they even begrudga him the
time it takes to oat his meals. They call al
bis housa aud follow hlnf on the street , and
the other newly elected members of the
council cannot even find tune to sympathize
with him because they nro similarly annoyed.

This Is a question that tins been askct

ticed those co-operating with this noted tern
poranco worker In his endeavor to reclaim

unROverncd appetites are leadlngEthom ,
Joined with him in this noble work are al
the pastors ot the city and many promlnonl
business men as well as n number of ladle :
xvlio are prominent In the social circles ol
the Hluffs. The prohibition leaders are oul
in force at every mooting , and Hov. T. J ,
Mackny , rector of St. Paul's , whoso loiters
opposing the prohibitory law created such r
discussion a short time ago , is always 01 :
hand taking an active part in tlicso meetings
This Is the state of affairs ttiut has suggested
these questions , and considerable Intercsl
attaches to the situation when it in known
that Mr. Murnhy is not only an unbeliever
In statutory pronlbitlon , but Is ordinarily
outspoken in his opposition to It.
His nnu-prohlbrtory ideas , however , he
hub kept to himself , and when u Hii : ; reporter

and naked for on Interview onjtliat very sub
jcct , the noted lecturer smilingly regarded
his culler for a few seconds and then gave
him un admonishing jab in the ribs ns ho remarked -
marked : "Seo hero , you'll got mo into

don't look out , and 1 mustn't ' have that. " .
"Well , but , Mr. Murpny , it is generally un

"Just wait a minute don't get mo tangled

The prohibitionists think that prohibition is
the necessary thing , and I don't want to
lese their help just because I don't think ns
they do. They are helping me , and wo arc
doing good wont , but if you como
out with an interview stating that Mur-
pnv is opposed to the prohibitory
law and thluks It u failure and all that kind
of truck , these folks would drop mo 11 ice a
hot potato , and I would bo a dead duck in
this city. Let us wonit to save these men
who uro now of no us" jo themselves or anyone -
ono else , and lift the'ini back to the piano
( rein which they fellSUospul tcmporanco is
the only plan of reformation that can suc
ceed. Now don't do"ilnvthing to impair its
work hure. The prohibition folks ought to
bo satisfied , , 'i'hoy have had full swing here
for five years , and I have been kept out of
thu state. I have been and always shall
bo opposed to this third party busl-
IICES Lo auso It can not bo successful.
Miss Frances E. Willurd bus been lighting
me for years for this very reason. She has
tried to keep mo out of Iowa , and since that
Chicago convention has boon particularly
bitter against me. Wo cannot work together
in the matter. If prohibition is to bo u suc
cess the prohibitory law , must bo passed by
each man for himself , aud then ho will see
that the Jaw Is enforced. The grace of God
In the heart is the scurcoof all true reforma
tion , and that al' no is successful. This I am
trying to bring abjut , and I don't want any
clement antagonized to intOrfor with the
progress of the work.
"iho trouble with prohibitory law is that ,
the law ispassed , , and thu temperance folks
leave it all to the law. They sit down and
fold their hands and think they have done
their fall duty. The prohibitory law is a
barb wire fence that they have thrown
around the people , and then they expect to
raise a crop , The ground must bo ploughed
and harrowed and carefully tended , and then
vho crop must bo harvostod. This barb wire
fence business Is a bna thing. While the
folks are sitting around quietly the enemy
conies up and throws bottles of whisky be
tween the wires. He sows tares among the
wheat , and that Is where the trouble is.
"Tho law has been in effect hero for
11 vo years , and the people are not satisfied.
Whisky is sold und drunk. The prohibition
ists , us I suld , think their duty Is done , und
they leave it for the officers to enforce the
law. Their lethargy righ'thoro is a mistake.
'Ihoy should keep right on with their gospel
temperance work and make each individual
u prohibitionist for himself. If this work
had gene on for the past ilvo years the ques
tion would have been comparatively settled
now , but they passed this law and tliou their
work seemed to bo ut an end , and there has
boon no progress In U.
"Tho passage of this law hurt gospel tem
perance. When It wus passed in Kansas ,
that state had thousands and thousands of
Its citizens followers of thu Murphy move
ment. That wua how they got the law , but
when I afterwards wanted to go back there
and work , they said ' 110 , it won't do. It wjll
throw discredit on the law , und folks will
think the law Is not sufficient if wo have to
push gospel temperance with it. ' Murphy
can't go there because ho thinks each man
stiou.ld become his own prohibitionist , aside
from unythme on the statute books.
"I know that the prohibition people are
rather suspicious of me. They think that I
don't boom the prohibitory law , but they
must remember tlut I don't work against u ,
I agreed 10 this when I uamo into thu slate
on tbo 10th of last November , and I worked
hard for gospel temperance , without saying
anything against the inova to prohibit by
stututo.
"Some of the prohibition people hero have
oven charged mo wi'.h drinking with the
boys. 1 don't deny it. I have boon buying
Co I fax water , und it has done mo u world of
gond. I have boon Into the Mint and several
of the saloons. I always try to have a good
word for tha boys , and I want them to como
to my meetings. I am no bettor than the
Lord Jesus Christ , and ho was friendly with
publicans and slnuurH , They 'licensed Him
ot coming to destroy th'ij law , but Instead His
mission was to fulliUU. 1 want to bo allowed
to continue In my work. Just because I do
not agree with everybody oUa Is no reason
why wo should not work together for com-
in on good. ,
As for getting along harmoniously with
those who are at variance , It is simply by
leaving out that portiqn of which they offer ,
i'hoy must govern 'mj ' course In Iowa. I
lope to work in Nebraska , but tbo prohibi
tion folks can not indilt'o uia to endorse their
ihird party ideas. I will never consent to
, t , nnd will remain awily before 1 will speak
For statutory prohibition. It Is u logical
conclusion with me''thut if I help to pass
ouch a law that I then must help to elnot men
who will fuvor that law and will Inflict pen
alties for Its violation ) -Those folks hold that
t Is the greatest 'crime In the calendar
o drink u glass < roli liquor , una when
: sutu as much to * a preacher bora
the ether day , ho replied , 'Well , ouo of the
rroatost. ' Tlioy hold that the grunting of u
Icunso creates the crime of soiling liquor ,
nnd my view is that the crlino. if there Is
my , already existed , and the license is to ro.
strict it. Hut I dou't speak of tucsa
things from the platform m lowu ,
ind I told you why. That la oUo
why the opposing elements are work-
ng together. If wo can contmuo together ,
vo can do a grout deal of good. Wo help
jvory man to rltihtly docldo the question for
ilmself , and then ttiero is no need for logis-
atlon. When tha Francis Murphy move-
nent swept through the country yours
igo there wus a material decrease In
hq sale of whisky , nnd we need
xi have gosuol temperance pushed.
Wo want all these moderate drlnkurs to do-
; ldo to prohibit themselves. If they were

CALIFORNIA STORIES.
Tlio Ita.st of the Mustang Grlzzllc
nnd KrontlcrHiiion.
My thoughts were turned to San Luis
the ether day by the news from there
that a man had found n band of will
horses in the mountains and had captured
turod about twenty in n corral , says i
writer in the Now York Tribune
There nro four or Ilvo bands of will
horses that take care of themselves it
the unfenced mountains of the Uppoi
Sierras , but none in the Coast Range
north of San Luis. They are descendci
from Spanish mustangs , and are as wilt
and worthless for any kind of work m
it is possible to imagine. In ono case
in early times , a Spanish land ownoi
was porauadoa to buy an Amoricar
plough and sow some wheat. TJo had
four or Hvo mustangs tied to the plough'
beam , put boys on the mustangs , ant
then ran across the Holds , with sovora
Indians hanging to the plough-handles
Every now and then the mustangs lieu
out on the ploughed ground and kicked
"for till tlioy were worth. " After a lit
tle while the old Don was heard to say ;
"What men those Americans are ! How
hard they work for nothing ! " And se
he wont back to his brush harrow.
Ono ot the characters of San Luis died
a short.time ago. Ho was a frontiersman -
man , known over thousands of square
miles oi mountain and valley as ' 'Uncle
Billy of .Josephine. " lie was.n , griz
zled giant.certainly the coolest nnd
strongest man in the region , and kept
a saloon for the quicksilver minors , a
postolllco and a store. He was a black
smith , a school trustee , and a few things
besides , especially a whool-horso at
came meetings. One night four Mexi
can minors in his saloon tried to rob
the old man. The door was shut , but
ho throw the foremost Mexican through
tie panels into the road , and then ,
putting bis arm about the throe others ,
shoved them on masse through the
splinters and fragments of the broken
door. "One or two of those Mexicans
stuck their knives into mo , " said Uncle
Billy afterwards , "but I never showed
I was hurt , and after they were thrown
out they crawled away. " In fact ono
knife thrust was clear through his arm ;
but on the ether hand ho crippled most
of the Mexicans for life.
There were plenty of grizzlies around
the mountains lifteen years ago , and I
hear of them oven now. Every one in
the mountains has an immense respect
for .the grizx.ly. An old frontiersman
tolls mo that a few years ago ho was
hunting stray cattle and he came on anew
now settler's cabin beside an oak in a
mountain valley. Ho stayed with the
settler ever night , sleeping in a blanket
before the fire. During the night they
heard a great noise outsido. The settler
tlor looked hastily out and reported
that a lartro bear was at the meat siifo ,
which hung under the oak tree. The
frontiersman was asked to shoot , it , but
said ho would not risk it , with only a
revolver anil a shotgun. The wife of
the settler remarked that they wore
both cowards , and she would drive it oil
with a broom. They locked the door ,
prevented her from going out , and
shortly after heard the meat safe fall
and roll into the gulch. In the morn
ing they found that an old horse had
become entangled in the ropes of the
moat safe , and finally torn it down in
his struggles and dragged it down the
ravine. The old frontiersman and the
now settler were obliged in self defense
to retire to the headwaters of the San
Antonio within a week and stay thtro :
until they had killed a grizzly apiece.
Ono of the hardest cases I ever know
was old "Buck" Wright who lived in a
logxjabin twenty mile's west ot Paso
Roblos. He was called "tho worst man
in all San Luis Obispo county to cuss
right out loud when things wont
wrong. Old Uaxon down at Ballurd's
was called the worst mun in all Santa
Barbara county to do the same thing.
Wright had boon a necro driver ( town
south before the war ; L-'avon hud boon
a bull puncher over in Nevada. Some
follows hid hoard ono of them swear
and some the ether ; but nobody around
Sun Luis had heard both of them. So
the boys wanted a match , and put up
$100. First , they tried to got Fuxon to
climb into a wug'on they had , and go to
Paso Roblos to meet Wright. But'ho
said it was a dry summer , nnd grass
was scarce ; he hadn't no call to burn up
all the cattle food. Then wo
told that to Wright and asked
him to go with us to Bullard's ,
where Faxon lived , and Wright
answered that ho couldn't swear worth
a cent outside his own county. But
folks that hud known him since ho was
a snipe of a boy in Missouri told us he
was too modest on that point. Then the
boys raised the size of the purse and it
was llnallv agreed to have a match on
the county line , but just before the details -
tails were settled old Faxon died.
\Vhon Wright came to the county ho
iook a schooner at San Francisco to sail
down the coast , a week's voyage to Oay-
ucas. The llrst any ho was seasick and
ho swore so bad the Bailers asked the
captain to put back or they would have
storms , and sure enough , headwinds
began the very next day and they boat
up and down the coast for two weeks.
Wright's remarks grow worse everyday
till at last the captain hauled iu at the
mouth of the Salinas and landed him ,
bag and baggage , 101) ) miles north of his
port. Wright walked the rest of the
way. That was where ho got the line
touches of his sweuring in perfection.
Ho came into Paso Roblos barefooted.
Tlio schooner ? San Luis people s.iy
she wus never heard of afterward.
TIPS TO RAILWAY PORIERS.
What Men In Rutland Have to tiny
About It ThouiHclvcH.
The question of tipping porters at rail
way stations in England , which was
raised recently at a meeting of the pro
prietors of the London & Southwestern
railway , suggested the idfea of taking
the opinion of the porters themselves
on this very moot subject. . A repre
sentative ot the Pall Mall Ga/.olto in
consequence paid visits to some of the
London termini nnd interrogated the
"baggage smashers. " The aggregate
opinion Booms to ho that thu porters and
guards have the real interests of the
companies ut heart.
"If you stop the system ot tipping en
tirely , ' ' said one , "it is certain that our
wages must bo increased. W9ll , there
ju't tiuompiny in E nglmid that could
Bland the racket. As It is wo can near
ly double our wages the year round out
of tips , but no railway company in going
to double our wages. That isn't likely. "
"Look here,1' ' said another , "it you
offer mo a tip do you suppose that I'm
going to bo mug enough to lofusoitV
It's all very well for you to say that tuo
company pays mo to do my work that's
riuito true ; but my work don't include
looking after goats for the passengers ,

putting their hand packages into the

fortable corners , keeping seats for one
and buying newspapers for another.
Yet wo do all that and doit willingly.
Some people take It all as a matter of
course ; if so , wo don't grumble and
growl and refuse to do it for any ono.
On the contrary we are ready to'do the
same thing for the next person that
comes along. Well , when wo got a tip ,
say tinything from 2d to 2s ( id , shouldn't
wo bo fools to nand it back and say ,
'Excuse mo , J > ut gratuities are not per
mitted by the company's rules ? ' That's
the way I look at it. "
"Tho wages of railway porters and
guards , " said a third , "range from 2os.
up to 5 a week. If a man can add half
us much again to his wages by accept
ing tips he isn't likely to bo foolish
enough not to. It is simple rot to talk
about the system of tipping being do-
grading. You might just as well say
that a man who rcceivob money for do
ing extra work in extra hours is de
graded. It is exactly the same thing.
A porter is not obliged to do many of
the things lie doca now with pleasure
and civilly , and surely a trilling gratui
ty which adds to his power ot keeping
wife , family and home together has
nothing ot a dcErrading nuturo in it. "
"In some stations , " said still another
porter , "the tips are all collected , put
in a box , and divided equally , among
the men at the end of each week. In
this ivay the matter becomes quite a
systam. Some men got more than
others without doing any more work.
They are placed in moro advnntagooua
positions that is all. Well , a
men who has to look after the
third classes don't get so much as the
man who attends to the first. Some
times it is all the other way. There maybe
bo a great many third passengers and
only a few firsts. So that if all tlio tips
aro'bp.xed and divided at the end of the
year it comes fair enough. "
"Would I do away with the tipping
system ; " ' said an old fellow who had
evidently seen many years' service , his
hand seemed to wander so naturally
ipto the recipient positior. "No , in
deed , T would not. Why , its half my
income. I don't see how the directors
uro going to stop it , either. What's to
prevent you from giving me a tip when
t hand your bng or rug to you ? Noth
ing ! Do you suppose the directors are
always watching us ? And if some fol
low was to go and peach how would ho
prove the case ? It is IIOIIBOUSO to think
of nulling it down ; they can't do it so
lone as people want to tip us and wo
want to take their tips. And that's
about the size of it. "

looked the passengers ever a minute or
two , and ho then walked deliberately
down the 'aisle and plumped himself
down beside the cirl. As ho did so
there was a crash and a crtibh , and ho
