The Inquest to determine the cnuso of
dontli of Captain Cui tor of No. 2 hose com
pany , who received fatal Injuries nt the 1'ax-
toil flru , was commcntwd yesterday afternoon
at Hoafoy's
undertaking rooms.
The Jury comprised Messrs. J. P. Hanson ,
Prof. M. K. Mueller , Dennis Uynn , H. L. .
Jtfalvln , nrnoit HalVon and i . C. Hcafoy.
The friends of Captain Carter and tho'men
Injuied at the flrovero loprcscntod by Hon.
" \Y. C. Connell , and J 15. Kitchen , proprietor
of the I'axton , wns represented by Mr.
Gooreo K. Pritchett.
The first witness examined wns Peter Me-
Oulro , one of the Injured men. He testified
that his company , No. U , was nt the scene of
the flro and had water on it In less than live
tninutcs after the aliirm sounded. The wlt-
pcss turned on the water nt the llro pluj ? and
then ran to the place whore Ills comrades
Vyore. A ladder had been placed In posftlon
teaching to the window In the third story ,
Yrhlch had boon broken. Hy direction of
Captain Carter the men played on the win
dow , from which smoke \\aa Issuing , and
then started to nstond the ladder. Mlllvi
bill Mas first with the nozzle of the
uoso , Downs was next and the wit
toess was third. Carter stood nt
the foot of the ladder. The witness
tad only ascended n short distance
jvhon AomctinK strucK him and ho know noth
ing more for some tlini1. There wns no nolso
( ! r other intimation that the wall was going
iftnil
On cross-examination the witness stated
thatwator was thrown on the window for a
low seconds only upfnry they started up the
ladder. It was not mme than five or six min
utes after the alaim when the wall fell.
On redirect the witness was positive that
the flro could"not have been burning lolic
enough to have heated the wall With a good
wall there would ha\o been no trouble. The
witness stated that ho hail examined the wall
slnco tbo accident , and hail found it only
eight inches thick. The only pnrt which fell
was that above the floor of the thiid storv.
J. J. Ormsby , a member of No 1 nose
company , was the next witness. Ho had
assisted In placlnc the ladder in position. It
was n twouty-olghl foot ladder nnd rested
Opainst the wlbdow sill. The witness as
cended the ladder and knocked in the win
dow and slid quickly to the giotind. During
the time ho was slldlni ; to thu giotind the
hion of No. 2company weio throwing water
pa the window. As soon ns ho loacliod the
ground they stalled to ascend the ladder
with the hose nnd ho stalled after another
ladder. Ho had not gene over twenty feet
when the wall fell. It was not over night
minutes after the alarm when the wall fell.
The \\ltnoss put his hand on the window
When ho broke It and It wan scarcely warm ,
ho was , therefore , positive that the heat was
not sufficient to cause the wall to fall.
George C. Whltlock , the city building In
specter , was the next witness called. Ho
testified that ho bad examined the wall. Tha
portion which fell wns about sixteen feet
equaio. it was an eight-Inch wall and was
Only one-story high , resting on the second
( story of the old Herald building , which was
a twelve-Inch wall. The original building
Jjnd ttireo stories on the north end , nnd this
tvall had been erected on the south end of
the building. It was not joined or "bonded"
to the north end of the wall , but was moiely
Dtlllt up ngalnst It and wns held in position
by the Joists in the colling and the anchors.
The witness' theory was thnt the fire had fol
lowed thu steam pipes above the celling and
had burncu off the ends of the Joists , causing
the celling to fall and pushing the walls out.
Kuthoopnlan of the witness the wall wns
never ataulo nor sccuio , and ho considered It
Dangerous. In fact , the whole building had
boon condemned and he had no faith In It at
all. If the wall had been twelve inches in
thickness and properly secured the witness
was of the opinion that there would hav been
BO danger.
! Charles D. Cox , plptinan on the No. 3.
Chemical , followed , .Mr. Whitlocic on the
fetand. Ho testified that ho tool : the chemi
cal pipe into the kitchen and played upon the
coiling nnd walls. Captain Wmdom called
Jttlni out nnd scut him to attend to the chemi
cal. Whtlo nt the engine he hoard some ono
Bhout that No. 2 men were under the wall.
Ho rushed in nnd diaggcd a man
out , who proved to bo Thomas
Downs. The falling of the wall
was the first ho know of the fire being above
the ground floor. The hrlclc which fell were
not warm when ho pulled Downs out. Cox
eald that the wall fell in about five or six
minutes after the alarm was sent in.
George W. Tlfison , cit3' engineer , testified
' that ho had examined the walls after the fire.
Ho thought the wall had been poorly con
structed nnd that poor material had been put
into It. Witness thought the wall Insuffi
cient In thickness nnd dnngciious.
Mr. J. B. Kitchen testified that ho was the
OWjer of the property now and nt the time
the wall wns constructed. Ho said that
when the addition was made ho loft the mat
ter almost entirely with J. r. Coots , the con
tractor who did the work. Witness thought
the wall was In good condition , and as good
us when built five ycais ago.
Chlof Galllgan testified that ho was at the
flro about nine minutes after the alarm was
Bounded. The first eiders he gave were lor
the men to enter the building , but wnen he
found the wall had fallen ordciod them out
ncrnln. There wns no llro to nninnnt to imv.
vumg wuuii luu wuu iuu uui.
The chief said that if it had not been for
the cress sections on the second floor that the
Whole wall , clcnr to the nlloy. would have
fallen. Witness considered the wall danger
ous nnd poorly constructed. The chief closed
bis testimony by saying that n good gust of
wind without any llro would have knocked
the wall down.
J. F. Coots , the contractor , testified that ho
built the wall in tnosprlng of li&O. Thnt the
carpenter and brick work was well done and
Rood material used. Ho also said that every
iirocautlon had boon taken to maUo the addi
tion perfectly sale. The witness said ho had
been a builder for thirty-thicoyoars , and tills
wns the first tlmo such a thing had happened
tanny of his work.
The case was then given to the Juty , who ,
nftor debating neaily an hour , i etui nod n
verdict to the effect thnt M. J. Carter came
to his death through the falling of the wall ,
nnd recommended that the grand Jury inves
tigate ns to who is criminally liable for his
death.

Oscar Plntnor , the sixtcon-yoar-old
son of Norman W. PliUucr of Tunica-
Imnna Crook , Pa. , came faeo to face
with a loan she hoar and a scrawny cub
near Sund Spring Run last Friday. The
lad was on his way homo from his sis-
tor's with a Hour back full of dried ap
ples , nnd the cub was n few foot ahead
of its mother when ho llrst unw it. The
cub squealed and ran back. The old
boar bristled up nnd snarled , and Oscar
was so badly frightened that ho throw
down the suck , took n , hack track , anil
didn't stop running1 till ho reached iho
house of his sister , moro than n milo and
n half from the spot. Ilor husband
was away , nnd her Oscnr
had stayoil around the house
for two holfia or so , ho saw Andrew
Uunhuin coining up the ron-1 with an
nxo on his slioufdor , and ho ran out nnd
told him about the boars. Dunham is
an old boar-slayor. Ho followed Oscar
to tlio spot wlioro the boars had boon
seen. They found tlio romulns of the
Hour Back and a few of tlio drlod apples
lay on the ground , but tlio ola boar nnd
her cub were not in sight.
Dunham tracked thorn to tlio creek ,
where the mother boar hud evidently
slaked her thirst. Then she had
waddled along the west bank of the
stream , nnd Inside of nn hour Dunham
got a gllmpio of nor. She wns nil
bloated up and she could hardly walk
when ho first saw her. The cub was
whining nt her side , but she seemed to
pay no attention to it. At last the old
bear lay dow n , and Dunham , who had
been getting closer all the time , ran up
nnd grubbed the cub. The mother boar
snorted , growled , and made n lunge
toward Dunham when she heard her
cub squeal , but bho was unnblo to cluu-o
him. She rolled over on her bide ,
kicked and sprawled about , and kept on
roaring. The dried applet had been too
much for her , Dunham said , nnd , not
eiirine to kill her , ho kept the cub nnd
loft her tliero to got over her spice.

WHEN DICKINSON GETS BACK
There Will Bo Nnmorom Changes at Union
Pacific Headquarters.
WILL BE HERE EARLY NEXT MONTH ,
IMvlairm Stipcilntcmlont IllloUcnsiler-
for Snld to Ilo Hlntoil Changes In
tlio' Trnln Service I.nllroail
NotrM null I'crnonnls ,
The old familiar flRuro of Ed Dickinson is
expected to appear in Omaha at any time ,
the probability being thut ho \ \ 111 report for
dutv about May 1. It Is understood that bis
tltlo will bo that of assistant general man
ager but the amount of salary no Is to receive -
ceivo Is , at present , a mystery. It is known ,
how over , that , ho refused an offer of JIU.OOO
per annum from another road and the opin
ion prevails that his solnrv with the Union
Pacific Is in that immodlnto neighborhood.
The Impression prevails very Kcnornllv
that Mr. Dickinson's coming will bo followed
by n general cuttlng-olt of heads , but there
scorns to bo no great cnuso for alarm. That
thcro will bo sonio change. ) there cnn bo no
doubt , but they will bo mainly confined to
minor positions. It Is n foregone conclusion
that there will bo an Immediate clmngo In
the ofilco of the superintendent of the Ne
braska division. The strained relations
which have existed between Mr. Dickinson
and Mr. Ullckonsdorfer would render It Im
possible for the latter to lomain In tbo service
of the road.
The sweeping changes mndo In the operat
ing department recently , by Mr Clark , \\ould
seems to indicate that no further chances
will bo made in that direction , for the pres
ent , at least. The superintendents of divis
ions seem to bo giving satisfaction , nnd n
change In those ofllcos is not probable. The
situation In the trafllo department Is appar
ently highly satisfactory , and wns brought
about under Mr. Clark's express supervision.
It. liii < t linnn thn IntnnMnn. sliiro the nroscnt
| management has uecn in cuarge , to consoli
date the coal and stone departments witli
some other department of the road , but
whether they will bo turned over to the
pbVclinsing department or put under tlio con
trol of the operating or trafllc departments is
a matter for future consideration.
Ono of the first things which will engage
Mr. Dickinson's attention will bo the trnln
schedules. Under the present schedule trains
arc run for u hlch thcro Is almost no necessity
nnd some of them do not nearly pny the op-
or.Uing expenses. A great many radical
changes will undoubtedly bo made in this di
rection.
The governing idea of the now administra
tion scorns to bo economy in the management
of the road nnd cor } thing will bo shaped to
thnt end.

Dr. Piorco's Favorite Prescription.
It builds them up. It's a powerful ,
restorative tonic , or strength-giver
free from alcohol and injurious
drugs. The entire system is re
newed and invigorated. It im
proves digestion , enriches the blood ,
dispels aches and pnins , gives re
freshing sleep , and restoies llcsli and
strength. As a soothing nervine , it
allays and subdues hysteria , spasms ,
and all the
nervous symptoms com
monly attendant upon functional
and organic disease. It's the only
guaranteed medicine for women.
It does what is promised or it
asks nothing. It gives satisfaction ,
in every case , or the money paid
for it is refunded.
That's the way its makers prove
their faith in it. Contains no alco
hol to inebriate ; no syrup or sugar
to derange digestion ; "a legitimate
medicine , not a beverage. Purely
vegetable and perfectly harmless in
any condition of the system.
