LINCOLN , Muy 23. ( Special to The Bee. )
H Is learned that Jui'ga Cunningham II.
Scott Applied to ono of the Judges of the
district court In and for Lancaster county
to exchange benches with htm. It Is pre
sumed that It was to this Lincoln Judge
that the Judge of the criminal division of
the court In Douglas county referred to the
other day when he stated that he had se
cured the attendance of a Judge outside
of the Fourth district to try the Dennctt-
Iloscwatcr libel case. But It appears that
Judge Scott reckoned without his host In
ono case at least.-A representative ut The
llco called upon the Lincoln Judge and
asked him In regard to the matter. The
Judge made the following statement :
"I received n letter from Judge Scott , I
think It was early In March. lie asked mete
to exchange benches with him for a week.
Baying that ho was very desirous of making
the acquaintance of the Lincoln bar , and
believed I would find a week on the bench
In Douglas county a pleasant change from
my usual routine duties. Ho did not say
ho wished mo to try the Bennett-Kosowater
coxc , made no reference to that case or to
any other specific case. Ho simply asked
mo to exchange benches with htm. I re
plied to the effect that I was willing to ex
change benches with htm If ho so desired.
I did not think much about the matter.
"Homo tlmo afterwards , and after the
Bcnncf case had boon started , I was In
Omaha , and with several acquaintances
dropped Into Judge Scott's court room. It
was Just as ho was adjourning court. Ho
came down from the bench after court had
been adjourned , shook hands with me and
passed a few words upon commonplace
topics. Ho did not say anything In regard
to his proposal to change benches with me ,
nor did I refer to It. We have never dis
cussed the matter further than the first
correspondence.
"I am free to sny that If Judge Scott re
quests mo to go to Omaha to try the Ben-
nett-Kosewatcr case I shall hesitate be
fore I consent. It seems to me that with
Rovcn Judges on the bench In Douglas county
Judge Scott should be willing and courteous
enough to the other six to request them to
exchange benches with him when the libel
case comes up. I believe any of the six
judges would try the case Impartially and
fairly. With the six Judges on the bench
It would seem to mo very strange that Judge
Scott should attempt to go out of his dis
trict to secure a Judge to try a specific case.
When I told Judge Scott that I was willing
exchange benches with him , I did not
suppose he had any especial object of his
own to gain. I thought ho merely wished
mo to transact ordinary routine business of
his court , or I think I should have written
to him differently. "
A number of Lincoln attorneys hava expressed -
pressed their opinion In regard to Scott's
announcement that ho had secured a Judge
from outside ot his district to attend to the
libel ca.sc. Ono of them said : "As ono
member of the Lancaster county bar I do not
care to have Judge Scott preside over a
court In this county while ho takes ono of
our Judges to Omaha to wash so mo of his
own dirty linen. Scott should either try
the case or turn It over to some one of his
fellow Judges. His entire action In regard
to the matter proves that ho Is so ex
tremely anxious to force a conviction that
lie dare not trust the trial of Uosewater tea
a Judge who Is suspected of fairness. Scott's
proposition to an outside Judge is an Insult ,
not only to the Judge but to his six col
leagues In the Fourth district. "

Shot.
LINCOLN , May 23. ( Special to The Boo. )
Charles Krocsner , town marshal of the
village of Waverly , will answer In the dis
trict court to the charge of murder In the
second degree. This much has been decided
by Justice Spencer of this city after a care
ful consideration of all the evidence. The
principal evidence against Kroesucr was
given by Michael Ryan , ono of the men ar
rested by the marshal at the tlmo of the
shooting and who hlnuelf was the mark for
one of the marshal's bullets. Ryan testified
that on the forenoon of the shooting he and
Holt , the man killed by the marshal , were
walking down the street with two compan
ions. Holt was carrying the empty beer
keg. When In front of. Loder's store the mar
shal commanded the men to throw up their
hands. Ryan and the other two men did so ,
but Holt made a movement as If he In
tended to run. Kroesner sprang forward
and hit Holt over the head with a billy ,
Holt sprang backward , and as ho did so the
marshal drew his gun and commenced fir
ing. The first shot missed Its mark , but
the second burled Itself In Holt's body , caus
ing his death. Kroesner then fired a third
shot at Ryan , missing him. Holt had no
revolver , club or weapon of any kind and of
fered no resistance to the attempt of the
marshal to place the entire party under ar
rest. Ills only fault was a disposition to
run.
run.Justice
Justice Spencer could not see wherein the
marshal was Justified In resorting to the use
of a revolver to arrest a halt drunken man ,
and he therefore decided to hold Kroesner
to the district court. Ho fixed the amount
ot ball at $5,000 , which was promptly fur
nished , como of the most prominent citizens
of Wavorly signing the bond.
MUST REPLACE TUB HYDRANTS.
The long controversy between the Board
of Public Works and the water works con
tractors over the respective merits of the
hydrants recently put In place by Cooper &
Cole Bros , has finally como to a most
unexpected termination. The firm con-
'tracted to furnish a number of hydrants of
the Matthews pattern. When the goods
were delivered the Board of Public WorkJ
rejected the hydrants because the contractor
had not supplied Matthews' hydrants , but
had Instead furnished the Galvln hydrants ,
which the board claimed were In every way
Inferior to the Matthews. The city council ,
however , passed a resolution accepting the
Qalvlu hydrants. Cooper & Cole Bros , also
presented a bill for the entire number of
hydrants they were to furnish , and the coun
cil allowed the bill In spite ot the statement
of the chairman of the Board ot Public
Works that but one-half of the full number
of hydranU had been supplied , ilio con
tractors got their warrant and cashed It ,
and for a tlmo everything was lovely. Last
night , however , the chief ot the flre depart
ment reported to the council that the new
Qalvln hydrants were not ot the size speci
fied and that It was Impossible to couple the
hose to them. The city council thereupon
ordered the contractors to replace the ob
jectionable Galvln hydrants with the ones
specified in the bid , The friend * of the
contractors claim , however , that the city has
already accepted and paid for the hydrants
with a full knowledge of all the clrgum-
stances , and that , therefore , there Is no way
for the city to compel the contractors to take
the hydrants out and substitute others.

VANCOUVER , B. C. , May 23. Through
advices received by the steamship Empress
of India , It is learned that the trouble that
has been brooding In Korea has at last taken
definite shape and Chinese soldiers arc being
poured Into that country. The first out
break occurred at Sing La Too , but It was
premature through the misunderstanding of
arrangements of Insurgent plans by the per
sons at the head of the movement at that
point.
It bad been their Intention to have upris
ings all over the country simultaneously and
so paralyze the officials and get control be
fore help could be secured. Tills break ,
coming before the general uprising , has givqn
the clew and the Insurgents are being ar
rested and arms seized at many points.
What the cffeot would have been had the
whole plan worked may be judged from what
occurred nt Sing La Too. There 3,000 fully
armed men suddenly mustered , and before
the guards could recover their surprise the
governor's palace > \as In their possession.
No mercy > vas shown and the governor and

LONDON , May 23. The Times In Its
financial article says : Indifferent as the
American public appears to bo to the great
efflux of the gold from the treasury it U
hardly too much to say that nothing but
the confidence ot the people In Mr , Cleve
land's sagacity prevents a premium on gold ,
A vote in congress would bo necessary before
a gold loan can be negotiated and we can
not learn that any steps have been taken
to drag In gold by the ears In that manner
from Europe. The public would certainly
require a definite announciment that prin
cipal and Interest would bo payable In gold
before subscribing for a new issue , and it
that condition were complied with it would
bo unnecessary to como to this country at
all , for the national banks would then be
prepared to take the bonds. The Issue Is
announced of 10,000,000 of India 3 per cents
at the minimum pries of 98 to dlschargo
India sterling bills , and for other purposes ,
The loan Is accepted as a sign that no change
of policy regarding mint restriction is con
templated and that the government Intends
to continue the process of keeping money
scarce in India , with the object of selling
rupees at monopoly prices , even If the
India treasuries grow more plethoric. But
it may be pointed out that borrowing In
sterling does not help India , but will bring

London's Democratic OrgikiiM Prediction on
American Turin Lnglslntloii.
LONDON , May 23. The Chronicle says
there Is a world of meaning IIL the decision
of the republican senators in the United
States congress to allow liberty of action In
the tariff bill. The Chronicle argues that
there is little difference between the propose 1
bill and the McICInley law and cays that the
republicans think that If the democrats now
make admittedly necessary changes In the
McKlnley law It will save the republicans
much time and trouble when they accede
to power. "Hard times have played mischief
with President Cleveland's policy , for the
continued export of gold , after the sliver law ,
to which he ascribed them , was repealed ,
gave color to the contention of the high
tariff people that the free tr.ide agitation Is
rjsponslblo for the paralysis of trade and
the outflow of gold. The feeling has grown
strong and general that the time Is not rlpo
for a change In economic policy and It would
be wlso for British traders with the United
States to adjust their business to the basis
of no material reduction In the present
tariff. "
