Tbe fire that was discovered In tbo base
ment uf F , H. Evans' shoo store Monday
night near midnight did loss damage than
wa feared. When the firemen broke open
tbo front doors tboro was considerable smoke
encountered , and U wat feared the stock was
damaged by It , but a c.ireful Investigation
yesterday snowed that comparatively little
burnt was done. The Urn was con lined
entirely to tbe collar , and was due to upon
taueous combustion of a small m'.o of soft
coal that bad been lying beneath the stair
way for several years and which
recently got wet. Tbo heat set tire
to a pile of boxes , and was blazing
merrily when thu llromon turned on the
\ \ utIT unJ quickly domed it. There was no
fire on tbo upper lloor and not a drop of
water was thrown In tbo store , and come-
cjuoutly tbo only damage luUictoa on tbo
stock was confined to the smoking of some ot
the cheaper goods beneath the counters In
the roar of the Uort near the colUrway and
a slltfbt smoking of the boxes In the back
pa-tof the establishment.
The stock was covered with over $15,000
Insurance placed largely In the agencies
represented by Odcll & Co , J. C. Lange and
W. S. Cooper. The loss was balng adjusted
yesterday , and tbo fire will not seriously ID-
tcrrunt business.

HOME , Jan. 20. His learned from Vatican
sources that a few days ago Cardinal Seraflno
Vannutelll hart a lotg and grave interview
with the popa on tbo subject of a reconcilia
tion batwoen the holy see and Italy. The in
terview was prompted by the ompcror of
Austria , who is personally interested in the
matter. The recent speech of Count Kal-
ioky was tbo starting point of diplomatic
iCtion to secure this desired reconciliation.
Austria , It Is understood , asks the pope to
agree to the participation ot Catholics in the
talian parliamentary elections and a
modification of the present favorable attl-
, udo of the holy see toward France.
In return for this Austria wants Italy to
ihango her Inimical attitude toward the
atican to one of more friendly character and
o put an end to the religious persecution of
ho Catholics. Austria has a triple end in
Mow : To save the triple alliance from
discredit In tbo Catholic world. to
prevent the Vatican from going over
to the side of Franco nnd to arrest the
radical movement in Italy , which might in
time threaten the position of the monarchy.
The Italian court nnd government have sig
nified their approval of rapprochement on the
incs laid down.
King Humbert and the Italian ministers ,
however , insist that the Catholics should
nrst upon tbo way to a satisfactory arraniro-
mont by participation at the polls. Other
wise nothing can bo done.
The interview with the pope lasted an hour
and a half. The pope promised to consider
the arrangement proposed. Uouotless ho
will wait with a vlow to discovering the rea
son of these overtures of the Austrian court.
It is already known that Austria , supported
by .Germany , will endeavor to bring about
the election of Cardinal Vannutelll as Leo
XIII's successor to tbe pontifical throne' ,
while Mgr. Gallmberti would bo his secre
tary of state. It is believed in Vatican cir
cles that the pope , while accepting a promise
and concessions , will not yield to the de
mands of Austria and Italy , but will continue
10 maintain his attitude of reserve , awaiting
more favorable time. The holy see is much
pleased with the reports received from
America nnd Arcnbishop Ireland' . ) attitude
in regard to the educational question la tbo
United States.

Homo Lint Night.
Ex-Sheriff John F. Boyd died very sud
denly at his home , 1203 Park uuonue. abou
U o'clock last night , after an illness of but i
few hours. Ho was on the streets Monda ;
but wont homo about 4 o'clock In tbe after
noon complaining that bo experienced grea
difficulty In breathing. He called a physi
clan and received treatment , after which h
rested fairly well and wat up as usual yes
terday morning.
About 0 o'clock yesterday evening Mr
Boyd's breathing again became diftlcult am
nuully resulted in the bursting of a blooi
vessel , causing unconsciousness , In which
condition bo passed away.
His death , when announced on tbe stroo
at U o'clock , was a ? roat surprise and his
friends were borror-ft ickon. At firs
they regarded tbo fact as a rumor , as
Mr. Boyd bad been seen on the streets in th
afternoon and appeared , as usual , lu the bei
of health.
Ono of bis very intimate friends wb
had boon in business with him was at a
card party , when a mogioiigor came It
and solemnly remarked :
"You are wanted at Mr. Boyd's house : he
is dead. "
This fell like a thunderbolt. A band ful
of cards wore dropped as If tboy were lire.
The faces of those who know Mr. Boyi
turned pale. Slloucn rolgnud until someone
remarked that it mutt bo u mlstuite , us Mr
Boyd was on tbo streets In tbo afternoon
Ho was not sictt. He had received no injury
Ho bad not boon murdered. How could b
bo deadl
"lie suddenly dropped dead at homo , " sail
tbo Informant. "It Is supposed that th
trouble was apoplexy. "
Many of bli Intimate acquaintances caltoi
at Mr. Boyd'H home on Park avenue as soon
as they Ic.irned of thosud affair.
John l-\ Boyd \\as born In Brookdeld
Muss. , Biplemlwr 10 , I8tt ) , and. after un
education In the common schools of his
nutlvu village , came to Omaha in 1W and
began life for himself as a cattle dealer , a
bntlncts which ho followed for four
teen years. Naturally bright , be
mastered the details of ] nhls buil-
ness , learned the wants ot/fiblppors nnd
cattle dealers nnd was chosen fir ) 1S7D to con
struct the stock yards In Council Bluffs.
When thU work was dona MK Boyd was
made .superintendent of Iho yards , nnd man-
god them Until 1SS4 , when hoHwhs employed
by the sa-no company to erect the stock
nnU of South Omaha , ot Which ho was
nutlo superintendent at their.-completion.
Taking charge Of the yardSr/r m Iho day
f their oiionliig , Air. Boyd saw the stock In-
lustry in South Omaha grow from nothing
o n oosltlon of third place In jtff World's live
lock markets. '
In May , 1887 , Mr. Boyd w i elected ns
ouncllman-at-largo from thoiScvcnth ward
and served , under the terms at the now city
barter , until January 1 , 1800. In 1889 Mr.
ioyd wns nominated for sheriff of Douglas
ounly on the democratic ticket nnd
vas elected. Ho served ono terra and
vns rcnomlnatcd , but wns defeated attbolnst

hcrlff. During bis term oC oftlco as sheriff
occurred tbo brutal murder of Allan and
Jorothy Jones for which Ed Neal was
hanged on Octobtcr 0 , last , Mr. Uovd acting
ns executioner , the exciting scones of the
day being followed that night by the lynch-
ng of the negro Smith , charged with having
assaulted n llttlo girl.
Mr. Boyd was an exceptionally genial nnd
courteous man , and few men in Umaha had
moro or warmer personal friends ,
Tno arrangements for tbo funeral nro not
completed , and tbo time will not bo decided
ipoii till word Is received from relatives lu
tisssnchusotts. It will not , however , bo bold

crment will ho mndo hero , where two of the
children of the deceased are buried.

evening at headquarters In ardor to perfect
arrangements.
ii B HTRAN MI : > HIS VICTIMS.
Story of n Scrlct of AHful Crlmm Ilulntrcl
by the Perpetrator.
ViRNN'A , Jan. 20. The .sensational trial of
Prank Schneider and his wife , Hosnllo
Schneider , wns continued today and many
new and startling facts In connection with
he revolting crimes alleged to have bcon
committed by the couple were brought out
dm Ing tlio proceedings.
The prisoners are charged with having
murdered and lobbed ciebt servant girls ,
md the hldeousnoss of tbo whole affair is
ntonslQod by the additional charge made
igalnst bchucldcr of having first outraged
ils victims before putting nn end to their
ivos.
During tbs course of the trial yesterday
Schuuldor admitted that in two Instances ho
was guilty of the charge of violat-
ng the Kirls. and also admitted
that ho hod killed ono of the unfor-
unato servants. Ho endeavored to throw
the guilt of tbo other murders on his wife ,
whom ho accused of decoying the girls to
tholr fate on the prutcnso of giving them em
ployment in her residence.
These charges made by the husband
against his wife were the cause of an ex
citing scene by the guilty pair in the court
room , both indulging In a violent exchange of
causations.
Ghastly exhibits were produced by tbo
prosecution during tbo proceedings , in the
shape of the skull and hair ot Kosnlle Klein-
rath , one of tbe murdered girls , and the torn
and bloody clothing worn by her at the time
of her death. The produclloniof these evi
dences ota terrible crime caused a shudder to
run through the spectators and bad a visible
effect upon Schneider. The . -sight of the
; ruesome objects scorned to unnerve him ,
md he finally broke down , and' tlio prosecu
tion succeeded In g9UIng.hlrn to confess that
10 was guilty of murderingMiosnllo Klein-
rath and the other unfortunates. Amid the
most Intense excitement.the prisoner
described in all Its horrible details his method
of strangling the poor girls who were
ui'cd to their death In hi * jlioJso. Ho said
lie had not employed chloroform lu tiny in
stance. His victims wore always conscious
when he attacked them , and ha was assisted
in his horrible work by his wife. His wife ,
bo declared , used to bold tlio bands of tbo
strucgling girl-J while he giusped them bv
tbo neck und choked their Ii7.cs out.
At this point Mrs. Scbnpider interrupted
her husband byoxcltoily . .shouting'l am
y6urrioxt victim ; I novcr took -part 1n thP
crimes ; " '
Medical evidence was , produced to show
the great strength possessed by Schneider.
This testimony was brought out for the par-
pose of showing that Schneider was so
.strong that bedid not red the aid of his
wife to grip the throats ol his victims and
uboke thoui to death.
Schneider hero volunteered to tell how the
murders were committed , and dramatically
went through tbo blood-curdling perform
ance. Ho showed how bo used to seize the
struggling victims by the breast with his
loft hand and with his powerful right bund
clutch them by the throat and thus strangle
tbo poor creatures.
In concluding bis confession Schneider
said that ho bad not killed the first woman
he had outraged and robbed because bo had
not at that time bad tbe practice in the
method of strangling which bp afterwards
acquired. The caso'baj created a great sen
sation and the court room was packed with
spectators. _

New YOUK , Jan. 20.--Tho tow boot
Vobstcr , and two scows belonging to the do-
inrtmcnt of street cleaning1 , are ditftlng out
o sen. The steamboat Is beyond the control
f her skipper nnd crow , She has not been
con since 0:20 : o'clock this morning , when
ho was sighted by tbo HocKawny life saving
talion. At that time 'she was signaling
or assistance.
This much was known late this afternoon ,
> ut ulnco then the lookouts on the Long 1s-
and coast report that while the Webster
vns struggling In the teeth of n" " flftv-milo
gale her hawser broke and became tangled
n nnd about her propeller. Thus she
vas % nt the mercy of a torrlflo
ea nnd , bobbing helplessly , she began
drifting out to son. The greater
error , however , was about the garbogo
cows , which had been towed out into the
ocean , us is the custom , to bo dumped of tholr
rofnso. On these scows , it is said , there
vcro atJeast sixty Italians , whoso help is
equlrcd In dumping the scows. Thcso help-
ess creatures were seen by the outlook1) to
) o moving about frantlcallv , orned no doubt
with four in tholr terrible situation.
Went In Srnrrlt of AKHlntunc < < .
The tug boat H. S. Nichols , with two other
cow * , which had bcon discharged of gar-
mgo , anchored her low and then started to
ho assistance ot the Wobstor. The captain
ot the Nk'hols concluded , however , Unit
vith bis own anchored scows in ex-
rorao danger and the chances of reaching
ho Webster against him ho would do bettor
o coma up to tbo city nt once to report and
ccuro help. So the Nichols turned bar
losa cityward and stcamod homo in the
ircast of the galo. She would bavo done
letter had she rlung to her own scows on
vlilch , as on the already drifting out seaward
cows with the Webster , there were about
ixty human souls , most all Italians.
Scarcely was the Nichols out of sight
vbon her tow of scows were beaten from
heir anchorage by the tumult of furious
oas , and with their human freight were
ilown rapidly out to sea by the almost hur-
rlcuno which was sweeping oft tbo land.
The first news of the grave happenings off
ho Long Island coast cn'no up from the
Uckuway outlooks to Commissioner Bren-
lan of the street cleaning department. A
dispatch stated that two steamboats , each
vith several scows in tow , bad boon sighted
off Kockaway beach in the morning.
Later , a second dispatch said that one of
tbo steamboats with i's ' tow had disappeared
off Mioro while the other bad anchored her
scows under the beach and sailed for this
city.
Steamers Sent to tlio llescue.
Late this aftornoou the statements con-
alned In the dispatches were confirmcd by
ho arrival at this cliv of the
lepartment's steamboat. Nichols , which ic-
lortcd that it and tbo Webster hud
> ccn blown out to Rocuawav during this
morning's calo nnd that the Webster and ils
ows had afterwards drifted out to sna and
disappeared. The sixty Italian laborers em-
jioycd upon the scows of tbo department ,
.ho captain said , hud been left on the two
scows which tbo Nichols bad left atanchorm
Uravesend bay. These men were in open
scows in a high sea and a gale of wind. It
was probable that any moment thov
might bo bloxvn or washed oft
.ho scows and drowned. Tbo captain of the
Nichols said that ho had been unable to res-
9110 the Italians because tbe waves and wi jd
; vere so hich that it was impossible for him
to approach the scows without greatly en
dangering his own boat and them. The cap-
Lnin did not know that already his tow bad
dragged its anchors and was then plunging
and drifting out to sea.
Commissioner Brennnn WAS at first dis
posed to send the Nichols bacK for the Ital
ians. ' He decided , however , to send the
Nichols and another steamboat , tbo Dosoris ,
out to search for tbo Webster , as at that
time she was apt to bo moro In need of as
sistance than the Italians on the scows in
Uravosond bay. This wns done. Tbo Nichols
and Desoris are out searching for the Web
ster.
It is not known how many Italian laborers
are on tbo scows towed by the Webster , but
itistbougbt thatthcro must beat least as
many as are on the scows in Uravesend bay ,
namely : sixty , besides the captain nnd crew
of the Webster. These will , with the men
on the Webster and tboso on the scows ,
aggregate 12S mon who , nt last reports , wore
at the mercy of the gale and heavy seas. It
is thought that these men are on the onon
sea.
About half an hour after the Nichols and
Dosoris had started on their search for the
Webster and tow the new steamboat Munici
pal reported for orders. It win at once dis
patched to Gravojend buy to , if possible ,
take the sixty Italians from the scows erron
eously believed to bo anchored there.
All-look the Oiitli.
