FILED A CURIOUS ANSWER
tfestern Union's Boply to the Petition of
Mrs , Minnie McOaslin.
DID NOT KNOW THE TELEGRAM'S ' IMPORT
JJIsclalniH HrgponMblllty for the Daughter's
Flckleneis nnil Declares It Did Its
Heat to Find Her Illumes the
Fiitliur's Negligence.
LINCOLN , Neb , , May 18. ( Special to The
Deo. ) The Western Union company flies a
rather novel answer to the petition for dam
ages by Mrs. Mlnnlo McCaslln. It will bo
remembered that Mrs. McCaslln had finally
secured knowledge of the whereabouts of a
daughter who had been placed among friends
Whan small and all truce of her subsequently
lost. The girl was found In St. Louis , but ,
not having enough money to get back homo
on , Mrs. McCaslln telegraphed her husband ,
Who was then working In IIcllcvlllo , Kan , ,
for money. The telegram was never deliv
ered , and the nowly-faund daughter changed
licr mind about coming homo with her
mother when the promised cash did not ap
pear , and she returned to the convent
where she had been found. Thq McCasllns
thereupon began suit against the Western
'Union for damages by reason of
the loss of her daughter. The
answer Is rather Ingenuous. The
company cheerfully admits haying received
the telegram and the cash for U , but says
it did not know that It contained anything
of Importance. It declares that It did Its
best to 11 nil McCaslln , but didn't succeed ,
and blames McCaslln for his nogllgonco In
the matter. It also declares that the woman
liad enough money to gut homo anyway , and
that the tlmo she lost was not valuable.
( Furthermore , It Insists that It Is not fair to
charge that Its failure to deliver the mes-
HUKO to McCaslln was responsible for the
fickleness of mind displayed by the daughter ,
and that her exorcise of the womanly pre
rogative of changing her mind was brought
about by the act of the telegraph company.
It therefore asks that the Eiilt bo dismissed.

.Shooting' by the Mnrilml Cuusltiff Lots of
Talk In the Ton 11.
WAVERLY , Neb. , May 18. ( Special Tele
gram to The Bee. ) The excitement of yes
terday still continues In town over the recent
shooting by the marshal. Men have stood
around all day In squads pointing at the
bullet holes and reviewing the scenes of the
past few days. To add to the feeling which
naturally would result from the killing of a
human being , a stranger suddenly appeared
In town upon the noon freight and very
mysteriously began taking notes and a mem
orandum of the affair , drawing a diagram
of the premises and locating the bullet holes
In the sides of the buildings , also taking the
Jurors' names that rendered the verdict ,
their business , etc. Coroner Grim was
called up by the stranger and Information
was elicited concerning the Inquest. Ho re
fused to glvo his name , but told Constable
Fedderson that ho was United States prose
cuting attorney and had been sent to Investi
gate further Into the matter. Ho quietly
slipped away on the evening train. Various
and strange rumors arc afloat. It was reported
( his evening that wnrr.-yj.ts were out for the
arrest of the cnttro crowd of beer drinkers
of Wednesday evening ; also that a part of
the witnesses were to be arrested for per
jury , and that $200 had been raised by the
friends of the dead man to prosecute the
marshal. Some evil-disposed person or per
sons are setting these things afloat to In-
tlamo the public. A man wan heard this
evening talking to a crowd to the effect
that the corpse was badly mutilated , having
his nose smashed and gashes on the nock
Inflicted by the ofllcor prior to the shooting.
His object seemed to bo to raise a mob for
violence. The funeral of Holt was held
today. About a dozen citizens attended and
but few of his old companions were cimong
them. U. J. Martz , junior member of the
firm of Martz & Walker , lumber dealers ,
ofllclated with appropriate religious services ,
his sisters , Misses Hello and Jennlo , assist
ing with singing. The expenses were mot
by the county.

FREMONT , Neb. , May 18. ( Special Tele
gram to The Boo. ) Coroner Slartln held an
Inquest today over the body of the man
found on the cars at Valley yesterday. Wil
liam R. Keith testified that he saw deceased
and another man fighting on the cars at the
station and heard deceased say he would
kill his adversary for stealing his hat , and
saw him strike at him three times with a
coupling pin , then saw the flash and heard
the report of a pistol. He could not recog
nize either party as he was two car lengths
from them and It was quite dark. He saw
a man jump from the car and run up town
after the shooting. He never saw either of
the parties before.
John Holmes and Charles Dopier , two
other witnesses , corroborated Keith's state
ments. Holmes is positive that the deceased
is the man he saw using the coupling pin ,
and that ho hit his adversary several times
before the shooting. Both men were down
on the top of the cars. Neither of them
ever saw either of the contestants before.
Neither witness came to the city on the
train on which the fight took place.
The dead man Is of medium build , clean
shaven and fairly well dressed. The post
mortem , conducted by Dr. Abbott , revealed
the presence of a bullet which entered the
left breast and lodged near the heart.
The jury decided that the man came to
his death by a pistol shot from the hand of
a person to them unknown.
