nbout town , There is not a livery stable in
the city at which bo has not worked. Hols
of Scotch-Irish descent , and van born In
Milno , and foranmiil > er of years was a
sailor. Ho has also held the position of
I coachman for several prominent families
lioro. Ho was known to bo of a very quick
temper und ugly nud dangerous when ho was
drunk. This was not his first shooting
scnijx1 , InlSSTho attempted to Wir'n man
named Ulackburn , who ia now n sewing ma
chine ngciit In Omaha. The difficulty oc
curred in Or. Beaiiion'u livery stable on
I'ourth stieet. Hall shot nt Blackburn
but missed him. He was arrested and served
n short term In Jail. As fur as can ho learned
lie win mairled In Tlamburg , In. , nnd came
licro as u stage driver. Helms frequently ac
cused his wife of adultery and this 1ms been
ono of the causes of the trouble between them.
Whatever she has done or bus been sbo was
only generally known as a hard-walking and
lionest woman. Ono of the daughters has
turned out had and nt the present time Is nil
Inniuto of n Pierre struct dlvn. Two daugh
ters are married an done of them lives at St.
Joo. Thuyounircst child Is a Ixiy , nped four.
The evidences of Hull's
Hull'sdangerous and
cruel disposition continued to pile up all day
yesterday. L.Htlo by little it leaked out by
iiui slloiiiiiK the surviving members of the
family Unit ho was a vicious limtc , capable
of iiiillclin ; the most exquisite tortures upon
his children and the woman who 1ms been
literally hecpinijhininll those years. It has
hoon found that the family consists of llvo
children , oil butthrooof them he has driven
away by bis cruelty. The eldest was n
daughter , whom ho assaulted , insulted and
tortured until she was driven almost mad.
nnd finally ran awuy from homo and mnrrieil
a negro. Her whereabouts is unknown. The
next was a son , who was also driven
from homo to c.seapo the old man's
a use , and ho is an unknown wanderer ,
iimna Hull , the slUoon-voar-old daughter ,
who Is nn inmate -Hodheadcd ' May's" '
bagnio on Pierce street , Is another victim of
her father's ' cruelty and abuse. A year ngo
she was u virtuous girl , but it Is charged that
her father was the cause of her ruin , and
driven to dispalr she chose a llfo of shame by
hU advice ,
The physicians who are looking after Hall
nt St. Bernard's hospital say that tlicre is
llttlo doubt that ho will llvo. The assertion
that ho hnd taken poison bos been proven n
lie , coined by the oM man without reason.
There was tisad scene at the urdtir taker's
lostovonlnirwhen Emma , tbo sixteen-year-
old daughter of Hull , came into the place to
see the body of her murdered mother , She
wo ? leading the llttlo four-year-old bnhv ,
whoso lurjo Wuo eyes worn suffused with
tents and whoso llttlo bosom was heaving
with the anguish she could not express In
words. They were taken Into the morgue
nnd shown the familiar features of her who
hnd given them being. The baby went up to
the pulseless body and entwined her baby
arms around the neck , put up her llttlnlips
to the cold fuco nnd piteouwy begpod for a
kiss , ' -ticst ono kiss , mamma. " The older
daughter took the child away , mid kind
hearted spectators endeavored to explain to
her the awful moaning of death , but slio
could not comprehend It , It was the first
time the older daughter had seen her mother
since the tragedy , and she was overcome
with grief. The has been no disposition yet
nmdo of the baby , but itwill probuMy bo
placed in the Christian home of tills city.
Hall , the murderer , continued to Improve
so rapidly lust evening under the cnro of Dr.
Cook tluit the olllcers thought It would ho
wise to talio Iho tlrst steps towards llxlng bis
status M a criminal. Accordingly County
Attorney Organ lllcd nn information chnrg-
iiif'hlmwith murder in the first degree , and
ho was arrested as ho lay on his cot In Ht.
Bcnmi'd's ' hospital , and two ofllccrs placed as
a Kunrd over 1dm. Ho manifested no concern
whatever when tlio wnriMii twits rand to him
clinnrlng him with the awful crime , hut mut
tered some profane remarks under his breath
about the trouble the ' 'd d old woman" had
made for him and the extremity to which she
had brought him. Ho will bo removed to

great wus the momentum that a stop could
not bo made until after the wheels of the
trailer had passed over iho prostrate innn.
The unfortunate victim was carried into
Iloranelt's drug store mid medical as-
slstanco was summoned. It was" found
that the wheels hnd pissed across
the lower part of the trunk ,
almost cuttiiiR the body In two. It was ap
parent that ho could live but a short time ,
nnd what little time was loft was utilized
In ascertaining from the victim who ho was
nnd whore his relatives were. Ho suffered
terribly , but was conscious , nnd plainly an
swered all the questions asked him ,
lie said his name was Herman I3ruch , nnd
ho wis a nntivo of Kussla , having como to
this country three years ago. He had been
In Omaha barely twenty-four hours , coming
hero Tuesday from Des Moinos. He was a
single man , thlrty-sl * years of ngo , and hnd
no relatives in thU country with the excep
tion of a brother in 1'atorson , N. J. Ho was
adrygootls peddler , and had a small Muck
vullso with him nt the time of the accident.
Bruch could convene in broken German ,
but understood HUlo of the English language.
He could not tell how the nocittent occurred ,
nnd died In horrible agony auout forty min
utes after he w.in run over.
The body w.is allowed to remain at the
drugstore ? for sometime , as the coroner win
out of the city , having been called to Council
Bluffs , but was removed to Ilenfey &
Heufey's late In the evening1 , whore mi inquest -
quest will he held this morning.
Conductor Aid rich stated that the train
wits not running very fast and that the
brakes wcrij set on both cars before
the man Jumped. Ho had the names of and
addresses of sovornl passengers who heard
him warn the man not to Juiup , and will have
them subposnaed as witnesses at the inauest.
The car Jumped the track when it passed
over the body of the victim nnd ran about
twenty fcot atfeV.it loft the rail.
All kinds of. stories were alloat and were
told by parties who claimed to bo eye wit
nesses. Some cluhnod that the car Jumped
the track and that the man did not got off the
car until after Hint time , when ho Jumped to
avoid an Impending wreck.
The blood stains a few feet south of whcro
the car Jumped .thu track prove conclusively
the Incorrectness of this story. Others state
that the man mis not on the cat at nil , but
was crossing the track when n buggy was
driven so closely the train as to force the
man under tho" wheels , but this is not given
any consideration by any of the passengers
who were on the train.
H. C , AWrldgo mdV. . .T. Cotter , the con
ductor and motirihan of the motor train that
killed Herman Bruck on Sixteenth street
yesterday afternoon , were arrested lost even
ing on ncharpo of manslauchtor. Their bond
wns fixed at J5,0fa ) each. It was promptly
furnished by'tho motor company , and the
men were released. "

A House Mover J lects with a Probably
Fatal Ace ill cat-
'William Cnmplicll , a house mover In the
employ of Paul Platz , nnd who resides at C'J.2
South fifteenth street , met with a terrible-
mccident about-I o'clock yesterday afternoon.
Ho was cngagOd In moving a build
ing near the corner of Ninth and
Hicarcnworth streets , nnd was taking
up the slack of the capstan rope. The build
ing was a heavy ono ana there was n hoary
strain on thcrop'c. ' Without any warning the
bolt holding the doubletree broke on * and the
sweep How back with terrific force , the end
striking Campbell ncross the forehead ,
smashing in his skull und knocking him
senseless.
So great was the force of the blow that the
sweep tore loose from thn capstan nnd flew
ncross the street , Campbell was taken homo
and physicians summoned. His injuries were
declared to bo very dangerous and probably
fatal. The only hope of saving his llfo was
by tropnmnR , and arrangcmciitsworo made
to perform that operation this morning.
Campbell Is a married man , thirty-eight
years of uje ( , and his family consists of him

RATHBUN COLLEGE COMMENCEMENT ,
Hon. Edward Koicwntcr Delivers nti
AdUres.s on Ilunliio.ss lUhlcs tea
a Cir.iiltintliiK Class * '
Twcnty-two young ladles dressed In loose
robes of white , and thirty-six young men
wearing suits of conventional black , com
posed the graduating class of Itathbuu's busi
ness college.
LastnlKht these young people sat upon the
stage at Boyd's opera house ; They were
there to receive their decrees authorizing
them to go out nud light the buttles of llfo.
The night wns hot , m fact , within the
building it was sweltering , but notwithstand
ing this the first floor wns uncomfortably
illled by uu nudlonco composed largely o"f
Indira.
The momhcra of the "T. 1C. " club hnd do-
tinted their services and at the opening ren
dered ouo of their most choice .selections ,
"Kathleen Aroon. "
The salutatory address , "Business Educa
tion , " win delivered by 0. II. Cowlcs , who
compared the education nud culture of n cen
tury ago with that of the present day. Ho
saUlt "The men c. today have wrought
changes that nro nsvoiilsliing. The demand
for educating men for business .shows a do-
slro to begin llfo where our father * left oft.
Ono hundred years ago the lnglo entry sys
tem of bookkeeping would be nulllcient to
take care of the largest store in Ilostoii. "
Ho thought the business education could
not interfere with the education taught fii the
public schools , as it was In a different line.
The piano duet by MUs Aliiiulo Learning
and Miss Tina Uerntson wiw roiidered in n
pleasing manner and elicited much npplauso.
O. K. IJathbun of the college spcwoupon
the subject of business colleges , jio said the
business colleges were different from the pub
lic schools ; Unit tbo business colK'iro was a
private institution , supported by tho-so In at
tendance , while the public si-hnbls were sup
ported by a tax upon all people. "It is nec
essary , " said ho , "to have a moru rapid sys
tem of transmission of the new.s , und the t'ol-
oirrauh nnd the tclephimovcre Invented.
Then caroo the business college , and It Is
hero to stay und educate the mlinJ of men
und women to a higher standard of business
principles. "
Mr. Rathhun's address was followed by
another selection by the "T. 1C. " imurtatte ,
which was dcllghtitilly rendered.
Hon. E. Itosewater , whose nppenvanco on
the stage was p-octcd with loud applause ,
spoke substantially 111 follows :
"A few weeks ngn Prof. Hithbun undo a
request of mo to deliver an address nt the
commencement of lih business colU'go , but
the matter hail passed ontiwlv out of my
mind until this afternoon , when I received ii
polite note informing mo that 1 was puidown
on the programme to rojpond to tht' thc'iio ' :
"Business Ethics. " Xow I feel very much
like our mutual friend did who recniitly en-
nrtcd tha mle of the Prince of Denmark on
tWi stage , and ilndlng himself so much In
want of a prompter , had to look for a book
nud take lila text from it from time to time. I
am entirely at SIM , so to nucule ,
and could give you nn address with
much gre.itur ease on 'What shall \vo do
with our girl1 ! that I can on the subject of
commercial ethics. [ Laughter. ]
However , It strikes mo very much , us it no
doubt did tlio noble D.ino when bo ex
claimed'It is not for mortals to command
success ; nay , Horatio , wo must deserve it. '
In commercial life , as In nil other pursuits ,
success must follow merit , nnd us far as my
observation of over thirty years extends ,
since I left just such a school as this , I Him
that integrity was the b.isis of success in all
commercial transactions. Integrity must
necessarily ho the basis of creditus credit
itself Is of commercial standlnir , for credit is
but another nanio for capital. Without credit
but few men \vould bo able to succeed In
business life.
"I have noticed that business men as a
class who stuck to their last , in the language
of the cobbler , wore always .successful. A
rolling stone gathers no moss , and there is no
doubt that those who , having chosen u voca
tion will bp far more likely to succeed by
remaining in it and cultivating It in All Its
branches , thnn by Hying to this nnd that and
thu other thing.
"Commerce , however , like everything
else , hits made very great strides in
the last quarter of a century. It was
something extraordinary twenty-live years
ago to lind n business house anywhere hi the
country that had connection by tolngraph'
directly out of its ofllco , In fact , I scarcely recall -
call any such place. Today there Is scarcely
any llntt-elniis Jobbing house that 1ms not a
wire in Its ofllco nnd a telegraph operator to
do Its business. Tiventy-livo yeiny ago
scarcely anybody , not even perhaps tbo pres
ident of a railroad , bad a shortlumd reporter
to attend to his coiTOspoiuk'nco ; today there
is scarcely any successful business man
without a typewriter and shorthand reporter.
So that commerce has changed in many
respects , but the business principles that pre
vailed in Benjamin Fnuiiilln's time prevail
Just us much in our own day.
"Men who cuter commercial life usually
want to know why some men have succeeded
and others have fulled. It Ir.is boon largely-
due to their Individual method of doing busi
ness and the manner in which they have
treated their competitors , An honorable
competitor will always make friends for him
self but the man who seeks to destroy Ids
neighbor's business , who wants to build
himself up by tearing others down , will fall
nlno times out of ten. The grocer who smiils
bis migar Is not likely to ivtnin his customor'.s
patronage long. The man who glvos short
weight will sooner or later bo found out. and
the incruhimt who in any way takes tut van
tage of his patruns will bo t > uro to fail In thu
end.
end."I
"I foci Krntllied to sco that the commercial
college has made such a favorable 1m-
pi-ossion with the graduating class
that aupoars hero tonight. It is an
evidence that the people of our city and state
appreciate business colleges : Unit they re-
allzo the fuel that u boy or girl with a good
business education will be suroof being able
to make a livelihood wherever they mayseo
lit to go. It is as goou us learning a trade.
In fact , wo have passed by the time for
learning trades , A boy who goes into a
factory to learn a trade simply becomes a
tender to a machine. Ilo is not able to iniiko
a watch or a boot. The Introduction of ma
chinery in branches of industry bus turned
the mechtuilo into a mcro tender of ma
chinery. But the business college Ills every
boy with nn elementary training for the
counting room , the typewriting and general
olllco work , or the telegraph station. No
matter what calling u person may follow , a
business college training Is always usof ul and
desirable. Whether ono becomes an editor ,
a doctor , or lawyer , It will bo of material
beuollt. All professional men are compelled
to deal moroorloss with matters of business.
I hope that the encouragement that has been
given to tlo commercial colleges of Omaha
will continue in the future. The fact that so
many people nro hero tuiiight to attend the
exercises , in suite of the sweltering heat ,
affords ample proof that great Interest is
taken by our people In thc o hchools. " ( Loud
applause. ]
"Lovo's Dream is I'ait , " a solo , was sung
by Miss Knto Ootnpsv In u charming manner.
Rev. F. S. Ulnyney delivered u short nd-
dress UIOTII the subject of " .Special Educa
tion. " Tlio speaker said ho was glad that ho
was called upon the platform , mid that ho
was proud of the Omaha business college ,
Ho thought such Institutions would ahvays
have their placoi and have their work to oe-
cornpllsh.
A piano duet , "Tho Witches , " was rcn-
deix'o in a charming manner by Misses Tina
Uerntson and Bertlo Gram.

bo was unable to attend and this portion of
