Oooil Char.iolcr or the Do-
conned Story of tlio
Accused.
The trial of Trumptcr Dixon sn the
United States Court was continued yester
day morning. Private Lorenzo Walters was
the llrstvltnossculled. .
Ho had scon Dlxon , the accused , the evenIng -
Ing of the shooting. Ho had asked Dlxon , n
short time before the tragedy , how his girl
was. referring to the negro woman who had
been driven away from the garrison bv Cor
poral Carter and Dlxon replied that Walters
had bettor Inquire about an hour later how
Corporal Carter was. A few hours later
Dlxon had shot Carter at the barracks.
Martin Mellvillo , another private ,
wns then called. Ho had over
heard the conversation between Walters
and Dlxon n few hours before the
flhootlug. Ho said : "I was Insldo the bar
racks but the window was open. I heard
Walters say , -Hello , Dlxon , how Is the girl I1
Dlxon said , 'You hod better ask mo In about
nn hour how the fellow is who abused the
girl. ' "
C. II. Cornell , of the land office at
Valentino , was called ns n witness for the
purpose of proving that Fort Nlobrara , was
located upon a government reservation , and
tii ere fore the case came under the Jurisdiction
oJ the United States court.
Captain Carter was recalled to Identify the
dying statement made nnd signed by Cor
poral Carter. The statement slcnod by Cor
poral Carter was then offered In evidence. It
was very brief , simply saying :
"I was foully munlcro 1 by Clinton E. Dlxon
and after he shot mo I bit his thumb.
( Signed ) JOHN U. OAimn. : "
1'rlvnto Bultorworth was then called to
tate that Dlxon had borrowed the revolver
nnd ammunition from him a few hours bsforo
the shooting.
Dlxon 0:1 : the i tuncl.
The prosecution then rested nnd the defendant -
fondant took the stand. Dixon showed signs
of nervousness as ho held up his hand to bo
sworn. In response to the questions of his
attorney the defendant unld ho called nt the
quarters that night to see Corporal Carter.
The witness said : "I went In nnd said : Cor
poral Cartor.l want to spoilt to you. Wo
walked out of the quarters and closed
the door. I then said : 'Corporal , tboro Is
no need of us having any trouble about these
women. * Then ho said "Damn you , ' and
grabbed mo by the throat and tried to blto
mo. I said , 'Don't bite mo , ' and ho said , 'I
will oit you up , damn you. ' Then I put my
hand against-hls face to shove him away and
ho bit rny linger. Then I pulled my revolver
to strike him over the nead. He grabbed the
revolver by the muzzle and tried to take it
from mo. The weapon was discharged , tak
ing effect in Carter's abdomen. "
In answer to a question of Mr. Dolan the
defendant said ho wns afraid of Carter be
cause his friends had cautioned him that
Carter had made throats thai ho would in
jure him. Ho stated further thnt Carter had
the reputation of being a bad man in u quar
rel. Ho would take an unfair advantage of a
man if he could got it.
Dlxon denied having said to Private
Walters that Carter would got pounded up
on the evening of September 'JO. Ho ad
mitted borrowing the revolver and ammuni
tion , but snlu ho was intending to go to Val
entino that evening and wanted to take the
gun along.
in Di.von'4 nctinir.
Dixon stood the cross-examination by the
prosecuting attorney with but very little
flinching , but seemed somewhat relieved
when ho was excused from the witness
stand.
Sergeant McNnb nnd half.a dozen other
witnesses wove Introduced by the defense to
show that. Corporal Carter had been n quar
relsome man. Very few of the witnesses
maintained , however , that Carter was n
quarrelsome man , nnd the evidence in the
main wns favorable to the prosecution. Ono
witness said that Carter wai very quarrelsome -
some but ho finally got confused and contra
dicted himself. Ho said , however , thnt ho
hoard Carter say that ho would kill some of
the negro wenches or their lovers if they
Interfered with htm.
Another witness stated that ho saw Carter
loading n revolver on the evening of Septem
ber HO , the same evening ho was shot , nnd
thnt ho also heard him say that ho would kill
Eomo of the negro wenches or their lovers If
they didn't keep out of the way.
Sergeant William A. Danfovth proved to
bo a very intelligent witness , but his testi
mony was of no especial benefit to the do-
fcnso.
Evltlunon in Ilclmttal.
The defense rested the case at the oloso of
Sergeant Dantorth's testimony , and Mr.
Baker recalled Private NIles to rebut vho
testimony regarding the quarrelsome disposi
tion of Corporal Carter and also to rebut the
statements made by witnesses for the do-
fen so to the effect that Corporal Carter had
been seen loading a revolver on the evening
of September 80 nnd declaring thnt ho would
kill n nignor wench or n lever if they didn't
Iteep out of the way. 1'rivato Niles gave the
deceased corporal u good name.
Captain Carter was nlso recalled. Ho snld
thnt ho had known Corporal Carter for eight
years. The corporal , ho said , was a very
peaceable soldier and a llrst class man. His
record was on fllo In the War department
and It showed that ho bad been a man of ex
cellent deportment. Half a dozen others
wcro examined ana the prosecution appeared
to succeed in establishing the fact that Cor
poral Carter had been n peaceable and law
abiding nun : during his military career.
The evidence in the case was all closed and
the arguments will begin this forenoon.
The case of Sergeant Jackson , charged with
manslaughter , will DO tried Immediately after
this cnsu is disposed of.

having come down several days ago to testify
In the trial of Trumpeter Dixon for murder.
His testimony wns needed to officially locate
Fort Niobrara reservation , where the sup
posed murder was committed.
"Tho era of good times has already reached
the country "round nbout Valentino , " said
Mr. Cornell in conversation. "Wo have moro
money up there now than at any time for the
last five or six year * . It was n pretty poor
farmer who didn't raise from 1,000 to lf , > 00
bushels of wheat , not to mention other ctops ,
and they hnvo been nvernging ( iO cents n

got through thrashing it yet. Several
new machines wcro bought for this
season , but the crop is sn big they
haven't been able to got all around. On
plenty of farms up In that country this year's
crops were worth moro than the land that
raised them. Corn ha1" hardly begun to move
yet , and wo haven't sold a third of our pram ,
so the outlook is very bright indeed. Money
is plenty nud collections are onsv. The

Great preparations nro bolng mrulo and
much Interest manifested In the national
military oncatnpmont which is to bo hold In
Onniha the third week In Juno of next your.
Ono hundred military companies from nil
parts of the United Stutos nro expected Here
to participate and contest for prizes to bo
offurpd by the National Competitive Drill as
sociation of which Captain II. B. Mulford is
president ana John E. Attchlson Is secre
tary. Both of these gentlemen nro residents
of Oinnha , and last year at the national en
campment held at Indianapolh , by their
efforts the now drill association was organ
ized. The next thing they did was to secure
for Omaha the llrst national encampment.
In order to got the citizens interested in
the gigantic undertaking a joint meeting of
the various committees of different organiza
tions was hold yostui-day afternoon at the
Board of Trndo rooms. The Uenl Estate
Owners association , the Bonra of Trade , the
Builders and Traders exchange , tbo Omaha
Commercial association , the Athlutlc club ,
tno Metropolitan cltiD and the city wcro
represented at the mooting.
Euclid Martin was made temporary chair
man ol the organization , and than President
Mulford briefly stated thu purpose of the
meeting. Ho said thr.t tlio citizens would
have to Interest themselves to such an ex
tent that a guarantee fund of 10,000 would
bo made. Of this amount ? W,000 would on
offorect lor prizes to induce the
military companies to conio here , and the re
maining $10,000 would bo necessary for the
uxpcnso of the encampment. The competi
tion would bo close and to got the bc3t com
panies hero liberal prizes would have to bo
offered. Ho did not moan that $3J,000 would
necessarily Imvo to bo subscribed , because
bo thought the gata receipts of the encamp
ment would more than reimburse tlio parties
advancing the money. The association only
wanted a guarantee fund in order to insure
the competing companies the money offered
in prizes.
"If the people of Omaha , " said Mr. Mul
ford , "will not tuko cnouuh interest to put
up a guarantee fund tno encampment will note
to some other city. It will bo moro advan
tageous to the city than the national republi
can convention would buvo been if it even
had been secured.
"Every day 1 r.m in receipt of letters from
all over the country inquiring about the en
campment una asking wnat progress , if any ,
bus been made. I am nt sen. I know nothing
definite , but at the snmo time I tell them
that , it will bo held in Omaha. Something
definite must bo uono. Immediate action is
necessary , and I think a guarantee fund of
$ ! iOU)0 , ( ) can readily be secured , i'ho citizens ,
when they realize how many thousands of
visitors the encampment will attract and
what benefit It will bo to Omaha , will take
an interest and see that it will bo a great
success. "
The secretary , Mr. Altchison. stated that
bo wanted it understood that the association
was tiot begging a subscription fund , because -
cause the money advanced woula bo realized
from the receipts.
Chairman Martin , ns well as W. J. Broatch ,
at llrst , thought , that it would require the se
lection of u very eood committee to raise the
$30,0(11) ( ) fund-but when the latter thoroughly
understood the proposition ha changed his
views.
John T. Gathers , a representative of the
Real Estate Owners association , stated that
his organization was heartily In favor of
doing everything possible for the success of
the encampment. The associ&tion , ho said ,
wanted ussibtanco from other organizations ,
and thought everybody should be tinted to
attend the meetings and become interested
ns the encampment , without u doubt , would
bo u gro.it beneilt to the cltv.
"It will bo u disgrace and a discredit to the
city , " said Mr. Gathers , "It the citizens let
this go by default. But I believe that wo
will have little trouble in securing the guar
antee. "
Upon his motion the organization was
made permanent with -Mayor Broatch as
president and J. E. Aitehison secretary. JMr.
Broatch , after having considered tho'proBO-
sition , was free to express himself as very
much in favor of it. Ho thought it would bo
a greater benefit to Omaha tban the repub
lican convention.
At the suggestion of Captain Mulford tbo
president was authorized to appoint an ex
ecutive committee of live Including himself
us chairman to take charge of and.
manage tbo affairs if the arrangements for
holding the encampment. Afr. Broatch will
appoint the committee within a few clays.
Its duty will bo to call meetings and scruro
the guarantee fund. Sub-committees will
nlso bo appointed uncl the work commenced
in earnest.
The prizes for competition la the drill

Ijocal JifTcut of tlio Car Famine
U 1 1 road Notes ) .
Mr. II. C. Miller , the well known Board of
Trade grain man , made n tour of all the rail
road freight ofllcos yesterday in the inter
est of the grain trade of Omaha , which Is
seriously affected by the car famine. At no
ofllco could he get any reliable Information
ns to when the .blockade would bo raised , but
the Canadian Southern people thought it
woula loosen up by the end of the week.
There seems to bo u profound iguordnco as
to the probability of getting a supply of cars ,
and about the only consolation the freight
agents have to offer is : "Tho blockade must
end some time , It can't last always. "
"As u result of this blockade. " said Mr.
Miller , after till useless tour of inquiry ,
"Chicago , St. Louis and Peoria have dropped
the price of No. ; i corn 3 cents a bushel.
These are the only markets open to Nebraska ,
because our railroads will not allow tholr
cars to go beyond their own lines , and the
manipulators rf those three markets have
taken advantage of the situation to rob the
west of thousands of dollars. This doesn't
appear very conspicuously in the reports of
tno speculative markets , because the corn
used lor Board of Trade deals Is mostly No.
2. That is a rather fancy grndo established
by Chicago for the benefit of its speculators
to enable tnom to blood gullible suckers. Of
the 400 or f > 00 cars received in Chicago
yesterday only eighteen graded No. 2. Juat
enough to make a showing. Of the millions
of bushels of corn raised in Nebraska none
will grade No. 2 nt Chicaeo except by the
whim of tne inspectors at. that point.
"Nebraska , therefore , is interested in No. 3
corn. It is now 3 cents off as a result of the
biocKado nnd a drug at that. There is a little
ray of hope becaus.0 some of the western lines
are auietly allowing cars to go east. Of
course this is not generally known , but It is
helping out the western shippers somewhat.
The railroads might bnttcr do this , for.'other
wise their cars are liable to bo used us store
houses at Chicago , St. Louis , and Pcoria. "
Ail Unuluifiia : ! Kcw.u'tl.
Five years a o a Union Pacific car ofDeri-
vor was blown into smithereens by a dyna
mite bomb , destroying a largo amount of
property. The railroad company offered $500
for the apprehension of the party KUilty of
the acr , of destruction , but it w.n never
claimed. On Saturday the police of Denver
nrrosted a caug suspected of counterfeiting ,
and a barber named David Hatches accuses
ono of them of being the lone ; wanted bomb
thrower , 3 John -S. Simmons by name.
Hatches claims to , have been n witness to the
bomb explosion , but says his mouth was
closed through fear of the gang. Simmons
is said to bnvo thrown the bomb for revenge
because of some fancied injury. A second
bomb wrecked n house and narrowly missed
killinu' a man. .Afterwards Simmons ia sup
posed to have boon concerned in it number of
incendiary fires ns well ns counterfeiting.
