ttcoU'R Order.
Just before the 1st of Jnnuaiy a young
/nan wns arrested by the police on the
charge of uttering forged checks. Ho gave
his name ns Charles or George Woolrldge.
William Neve , George Dcneon , Morgan Hen-
fey , J. A. Rtul and J. A. Samlsh were the
witnesses who wcro summoned In police
court to testify against Woolrldgo. Some
of these witnesses have been seen and have
related their connection with the charges.
William Novc , at 112 South Eighteenth ,
until ho knew Woolrldgo had been In the em
ploy of Liveryman Flannngan for some time ,
nnd Woolrldgo cnmo often to him with his
check to have It cashed , Woolrldgo came
to him Christmas cvo with n check endorsed
by Hcnfcy & Heafcy. It was for the sum
of $8 nnd Ncvo cashed It without question.
When ho sent It to Hcafcy's It was pro
nounced n forgery.
Morgan Heafey of Hcafey & Heafcy said
Woolrldgo had been In their employ JIM a
stable hand and as .1 clerk. Ho acknowl
edged the firm's mime being forged , but
nnld ho did not appear ngalnst the man
ns his ( Woolrldgo's ) brother-in-law made
the amount good to the firm , as ho did to
several others , and asked each In each case
not to prosecute.
TRIED IT AT OTHER PLACES.
Ono of the places where Woolrldgo at
tempted to cash n check , nnd the ono which
aroused the first suspicion against him. was
nt Haydcn DrOs. He went there on De
cember 24 and purchased $1 worth of muslin ,
saying Hcafey had sent him. The only ono
of the employes In the place at the time wh'o
had authority to cash or O. 1C. checks wns
Mr. J. A. Samlsh of the hat department.
Woolrldgo tendered In payment n check for
$10 , or some such amount , nnd the cash boy
took It to Mr. Samlsh. It was signed by
Heafcy & Huafey , but as Mr. Samlsh was
acquainted with the signature of the firm , ho
( inspected something , and , taking the check
to Mr. Hayden , asked for Instructions. Mr.
Hayden did not recognize the signature as
that of Heafey & Heafcy , nnd ho scut Mr.
Samlsh down stnlrs to see the young man ,
but he hnd left.
The nffnlr wna reported to Hcafey nnd the
check In this Instance also was pronounced
n forgery. Huyden Dros. lost nothing , how-
over.
over.Wollrldge also offered a check for $10 at
the Diamond gambling rooms , where he was
playing In a game. The check was cashed ,
but was found to bo n forgery. The Diamond
people lost nothing by the transaction , however -
over , as friends of Woolrldgo redeemed the
forged document and made It a financial
object for the victims to make no charge
against the man In police court.

Woolridge was given a hearing In police
court December 28 , and was bound over by
Judge Derka to the district court. He was

A LITTLE CORRESPONDENCE.
Hero was a plain discrepancy. The record
of the district clerk shows that Woolridge ,
or Woollngton , wns remanded to Jail , but
the county jailer states that the man Is not
In jail. In order to secure the facts In the
cnso the following letter of Inquiry was ad
dressed on Saturday morning , March 17 , to
the district clerk :

The following letter was addressed to
County Attorney Kaley :

Mr. Knlcy promised to glvo the letter his
attention , but rn.idc no reply during Satur
day , and on Saturday night a reporter of
The Dee called upon him at his homo for his
answer to the letter. Mr. Kaley said to the
reporter :
"I fall to see any point to Mr. Hoscwntcr's
letter. All the Information concerning the
case he Inquired about may be found on the
nppcnrnnce docket , nnd the clerk of the dis
trict court could give him the facts better
than I could , I remember the rase , but I
would t > ave to consult the docket myself
before I could answer his questions. I
should bo very willing to glvo Mr. Rosownter
any Information In my power , but any re
porter could go to the docket nnd find out
the facts Just ns well us I could , "
DISCHARGED IlV SCOTT'S ORDER.
While the records arc nol altogether clear
In the case , there Is one fact that Is not dis
puted , and that Is thnt Woolrldge or Wool
lngton , Is not In the county jail and tins not
been since Fcbrunry 21 , When ho was taken
before Judge Scott nnd pleaded guilty to the
charge of forgery. Sheriff Drexel was asked
why the man wns not In jail. Ho replied
thnt ho knew nothing about the case further
than that before It was called for trial n
relative of Woollngton called upon him sev
eral times for the privilege of visiting the
prisoner , nnd ho understood thnt an effort
was being made to secure the man's release.
The matter of keeping track of the prisoners
was In the hands of the county Jailer.
County Jntler Miller wns seen. The re
cords of the Jail show that Woollngton , or
Woolrldge , was committed on December 28 ,
1893 , and was discharged on February 2(5 ( ,
1894. On the back of the mlttlmns Is the
endorsement , "Discharged by order of Judge
Scott. " This endorsement wns made by the
Jailer's clerk , who said he made It upon the
report of Jailer Miller , who returned to the
Jail on February 20 , after the prisoner had
been taken before Judge Scott for sentence.
Jailer Miller makes the statement that on
February 2G ho took Woolrldge , with other
prisoners , to the criminal court room. He
heard Woolrldgo change his plea of not
guilty to guilty , nnd heard Judge
Scott tell him thnt his sentence
would be suspended until the Sep
tember term. Woolrldgo then lofc the
court room , accompanied by n relative who
had been here working for his release , nnd
Miller saw no moro of Woolrldge until a few-
days after , when he returned to the Jail and
secured his effects nnd left the jail , since
which time he has seen nothing of him.
A prominent citizen who figured In the
rase tells n ttory which probably gives the
key to tlio situation. Ho says that his In
terest was enlisted In the case by n relative
of Woollngton , whom he had known In an
eastern city. The relative came hero for the
purpose of securing the release of the young
man. The gentleman went with Woollng-
ton's relative to the parties who had been
swindled and made restitution to them.
Ono of the cases of forgery ha.l
got into the court and could not
bo settled ns the others were , so they
went to the county attorney to see what
could bo done. Mr. Kaley took the gentle
men before Judge Scott , where they nil dis
cussed the mntter. It was finally agreed , so
the gentleman told The Dee reporter , nnd
Mr. Knloy recommended the action that
Woollngton was to plead guilty and that
Judge Scott would suspend the sentence and
allow the prisoner to return to his home In
the cast. The gentleman understood that
that would bo the end of the case and he
said that he believed that Woollngton had
left the city with his relative and would not
return.
BARON REISER'S SLAYER.
31 rs Kudlgcr on TrhU for Jllurdcr After
Handling Cmmcllmen Court Note * .
EIolso Rudigcr wns arraigned before Judge
Scott at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon for
the murder of Henry Reiser of South Omaha
on October 20 , 1893.
Reiser was n bookkeeper for the Hammond
mend Packing company , nnd Mrs. Ruillger
was living In South Omaha with her hus
band. At the tlmo of the shooting It wns
charged that Reiser had been very familiar
with Mrs. Rudlger , but had transferred his
affections to another object. She secured a
revolver , and overtaking Reiser on the
street fired on him , the shot taking effect
In the spine. A second shot Intended to
end her own llfo went wide of the mark ,
leaving Jjor face- slightly scarred with pow
der.
Reiser died from the effects of the shot
after lingering for over seven weeks In
continual suffering.
Before her marrlago Mrs. Rudlger had
been an Inmate of a house of ill-repute in
Omaha. For some time after thnt she was
believed to bo living the llfo of a respectable
woman , until the couple moved to South
Omnhn a few weeks before the murder wns
committed.
Mrs. Rudlger came Into the court room
resplendent In a new spring suit of the
most fashionable cut and crowned with a
broad brimmed hat , gorgeous with ribbon
and flowers. She greeted her attorneys
with a smile nnd stepped to the seat Oeslg-
nnted by the deputy sheriff ns nlrlly ns If
under the cnro of nn opera house usher.
Her husband took a chair behind her and
the Jury was called.
On the examination of the first juror a
question propounded by the county attorney
OB to the Juryman's conscientious scruples
on the Infliction of the death penalty called
forth an objection from Mr. Estellc.
Under the new law passed at the last
legislature the penalty for murder In the
first degree Is not necessarily hanging , but
Is left to the discretion of the jury , and It
was claimed thnt conscientious scruples
ngalnst the Infliction of the death penalty
nro not grounds for a challenge. The ques
tion was allowed with that explanation
by the Judgo.
All the afternoon was consumed In the
selection of a Jury.
CONTEMPT CASE POSTPONED.
When the contempt case of W. D. Perclval ,
The Dee reporter , was called by Judge
Scott yesterday Attorney E. W. Slmeral
presented a physician's certificate stating
that the defendant wns unable to leave his
room , nnd the case again went over to Satur
day morning ,
Mr. Slinoral requested an order for the
citation of witnesses , but was Informed" that
no ruling or notation of nny sort would bo
made In the absence of the defendant.
AFTER DOODLING COUNCILMEN.
After the usual preliminaries in the crimi
nal division of the district court Judge
Scott produced n copy of a nows-
pnper nnd called the nttentlon of the county
attorney to the fact thnt ho found In It n
letter addressed to him , stntlng that some
member of the city council , not named , hud
been guilty of accepting a bribe of $1,000 for
his vote In connection with the awarding of
some contract. When the court , ho ex
plained , wns publicly advised of the commU-
jslon of n crime It wns his duty to take
public notice of It and not take the county
attorney Into his private room. The loiter
In the pnper mndo n specific chnrgo , and , If
true , It wns unnecessary to state that the
mnn referred to wns a scoundrel and should
bo punished the same as any other criminal ,
the court publicly Instructed the county at
torney to see the publisher of the paper mak
ing the charge. Investigate the extent of his
evidence nnd , If justified , to proceed with the
prosecution of the councilman accused , whp-
cver ho might be ,

MOSHER'S ' PRIVILEGES AND LIQUOR AT JAIL
IVnn Mr. ItincnviiliT'fi ItlRht to Oho tlio
1'copln tlio FnctH mill the l.lbcl Case
DIsmlHKocl Drfvmlimt Hold us
to Mrs. Dennett.
lierkn nnndod down his decision In
the Ucnnclt-Rosowutc > r libel cnso yesterday
afternoon. Ho dismissed tlio defendant ns
to the cnso brought by ex-Shcrlff Dennett ,
nnil bound him over to the district court
In the BUM ) of $700 In the cnso In which Mrs.
llonnett Is thu prosecuting witness. The
court held thnt the publication as to the
abortion In the jnll with full knowledge
of the matron wus llbulous per BO ns to
Mrs. Dennett , and the truth of the charge
had not bern proved , neither liml Mrs. Den
nett been sufllclently connected with It If
true to make the publication justifiable. It
was held that Inasmuch at ) Mrs. Dennett
was not n candidate going before the people
for rc-clcctlon , the defense of privilege
would not hold good.
In passing on the Dennett case the court
severely criticised the conduct of the county
Jail under the ex-shcrlff. The sheriff had
not only allowed the prisoner , Mosher , privi
leges far In excess of those accorded the
ordinary "trusties , " but It had been proved
beyond tlio shadow of a doubt that Mosher
had been allowed to have possession of the
keys of the jail , and could at any time have
liberated every prisoner In the jail. The
law required that no liquor should bo dis
pensed In a public place without n license.- ,
but In the county jail under cx-SherlfT Den
nett this law had been systematically violated
lated , anil liquor had been given out In de
fiance of law.
The court said ho did not care to enter
upon a discussion of nil thu charges. Den
nett had gene before the people for re
election , and It was necessary for him to
put his character upon the scales and allow
the electors to pass judgment. All of the
authorities obtainable had been carefully
scanned , and It had been found that they
were almost a unit In according the press
the greatest latitude In cases of this kind ,
particularly whcro an olllcer was a candi
date for another term. In view of the law
and the evidence , the defendant was cer
tainly justified in publishing what ho did ,
and could not be held for trial In the upper
court.
The court said that he did not want to
have any blame shifted on to his shoulders
by the prosecuting attorney , in case thnt
olllclal was not satisfied with the decision.
If the result was not what It should have
been. It was the privilege and the duty of
the county attorney to flic another complaint
In another court , and not hldo behind the
assertion that the court had made a mis
take. The conduct o the Figaro In com-
mentlng on the rulings of the Judge during
the trial of the case was brought up and re
viewed In unmistakable language. The
court warmed up considerably on that point ,
and quoted Hoscoe Conkllng as to what
would happen when courts fell from grace
and the people ceased to hold them In the
greatest respect. Touching his own course ,
the judge said that he had been frequently
honored by the people , and because of this
ho was satisfied that the rectitude of his
course had been appreciated. He doubted
very much whether some of his critics could
bo elected dog-catcher , to say nothing of a
rjosltlon as maclstrato.
Ex-Sheriff Dennett was not In the court
room to hear the court's opinion of his con
duct of an official position ; neither was the
other prosecuting witness on hand , but Tlie-
odoro Dennett and the "filend of his youth , "
ex-Deputy Jailer Homo , were there as the
representatives of the past .regime.
Mr. Roscwater at once signed a bond
for his appearance In the district court ,
and the case , sq far hs the police court la
concerned , came to an end.
