private rooms for consultation , -where they
remtlncd lor . short lime , when ther
emerged , having decided to- Bit In bane at 2
o'clocK la tha afternoon to hear argument *
frhr scott should not transfer the case to
the dockcl ol some other judge for trial.
The work of Iho tlve Judges WM completed
shortly after ( ho Opening of court , and after
the declilon had been reached ono of the
members ol Iho bench was designated M the
party vrho should notify Scott of the action
nnJ Invllo him to bo present at the hearing
and give till reasons , If ho had any , why a
transfer should not be granted.
Tile criminal section of the court opened
with nothing to Indicate the atorm which
vas soon to burst In tuch lury. The trial
of a case had been commenced when o
bailiff Irom ono of the other courts entered
tlio room and passed a paper up to Scott.
This gentleman read the document , which
was nothing clso than a notification of the
conclusion which had been reached by the
Dvo Judges upon the Subject of the removal
of the alleged libel case from the docket of
Scott. Having concluded reading Scott ad
justed his spectacles , looked about the room
and brought his clenched flit down In front
of him , and ground out between his teeth
the words. "Take that back to your Judge
and tell him that ho had better mind his
own business. "
OI'KNUD HIS WHAT ! ! THROTTLE.
Members ol the crowded lobby were
gUrtlc-d as the bailiff gathered up the paper
and slid out of the room. They knew noth
ing about what was the cause of the out
burst of tamper , but they were not long In
Ignorance , for Scott soon opened his vials
of wrath nnd proceeded to spill the contents
with the moat rcrkless abandon. Elevating
Ills voice to a falsetto tone ho stated that
lie had been cited to appear before the other
members of tli& bench at 2 o'clock In the
afternoon and RHOK cause why the trial of
the Hosowater case should not be transferred
to the docket ot some of his associates upon
the bench.
This statement was like pushing1 a poker
Into a bed oC liot coals , for It sent the
flames and sparks to the celling , while some
of the timid ones In the lobby sought a
cover. Now and then he pounded the desk ,
making the inkstands , books and other
loose objects dance a lively jig. white sev
eral small boys In the rear of the room
smiled loud enough to be heard out In the
hajl.
hajl.Having
Having pounded the desk until his list was
au red ns the wattles around tlio neck ot a
male turkey , Judge Scolt remarked that he
had Informed himself of the delays and at
tempts that had been made to get this case
from his docket. "I find , " he continued ,
"that attorneys have gona before tha other
judea * to try nnd get them to make an order
that the cane shall not be tried before me.
There Is no law for a change of tills kind ,
xccpt where the case Is to be taken to
another county , or before the Judgeof an
other district. "
Burning with Indignation , or at least that
Is what Scott said was burning him , he read
tha application for a removal of the cause
and then commented upon the men who had
inado the afllilavlts on which the motion was
made. He omitted mention of Mr. Hose-
water , but paid his respects to the others ,
caylng , "There Is Slmeral , " but that was all
he said concerning this gentleman. Turn
ing his attention to the other parties , he
nald , "Perclval , a man who has been fount !
guilty of contempt and sent to jail ; Est.i-
brook , I don't know anything about him. "
WHAT HE PHOI'OSES TO DO.
Having disposed of the parties who dared
express themselves in the atlldavlts , Judge
Scott flew off on another tangent and In a
stage voice declared , "Wo have now met at
the cross roads , and I do not propose to
take either side , but Instead , I am going to
tread right In the middle of the road.
Hero I am , an American citizen C2 years of
ago , and stand upon a broad gauge platform
that will permit me to give every man n
fair and Impartial trial. If I did not want
to glvo Kosewatcr a fair trial , the motion
might bo excused. There Is no law to take
this case oft my docket , and It will stay
there. If there ,1s any monkeying about It ,
some one Is going to be cited to appear for
contempt , and I think I am pretty good
.authority on contempt. " Ths last portion of
the remark brought out a mullleU round ot
applause ; bill It waa quickly hushed , as the
balllft threatened to eject n. man from the
room. '
Continuing , .tho judge added , as he brought
his fist down upon tlio'tTcsk. with another
muffled thud , "Kdwartl Rosewater will be
tried In this court It I live , and I will live
If they don't kill me.
"I .was elected to perform my duties , and
I propose to stand by the people and the
law. I don't propose to send this case out
to three judge * , as was done In the Kcmle
Impeachment case , and then have them find
nothing. "
To show that ho was a braveman. . Judge
Scott added most emphatically , "I fear no
power but tlja power of the people and Oed ,
and I am not going to stand any shilly
shallying , either. If there is any there
will bo some contempt cases on the- docket ,
qnd I tlilnk'that I am pretty good authority
on contcmpt.law.
"I have asked twu Judges outsideof this
district to come here and hear this case ,
but they will not come. One did not want
to bo abused and the other was sent alter
and was. scared out. "
This ended the seance nnd the crowd dis
solved Into the thin air , while Judge. Scott
wrapped himself up In tfio cloak of his own
Importance and remarked that he was ready
to go on with thfr hearing of cases.
BEFOHI3 THE OTHER JUDGES.
Promptly at Z o'clock In the after
noon Judges Hope well , Ambrose , Blair ,
Keysor and Ferguson appeared In court
room No. 3 , wher.o .the flvo Judges
ascended the bench for the pur
pose 'of sitting In bane" for the purpose of
iletcrmlnlnc If the Bennett case should be
removed , from Judge Scott's docket.
Aa soon as the court was called to order ,
Mr , Slmeral , ana of the attorneys for Mr.
llosowatcr. said that he had Intended to
DKVO the flies of the case before the court ,
but that ho had been Informed by Clerk
Woorea that Judge Scott had Issued an order
that they should not be removed from his
office. ' 'Mr. Bailiff , " remarked Judge Hope-
well In Ma usual quiet way , "you will tell
the clerk to produce the flics In this case. "
Soon after this order was Issued Mr ,
Moorcs entered the room to state- that moat
of the files In the case were In the possession
of Judge' Scott.
"Mr. Clerk. " said Judge Hopewell , ' "You
will ascertain where these flies are. Sea If
you can get them and then report your suc
cess. "
Soon Clerk Moores returned to say , "Judge
Bcott tells , mo that he Is busy examining
the ( lies and you cannot have them. He says
that lie wants no Interference with his
duties. "
"Mr. Slmeral , " said Judge Hopewell. after
ho and his associates had conferred for a
few moments. "You may read your mo
tion and make your statement. "
Mr , Slmeral read the motion for a transfer
ot the case , the same as Is printed herewith ,
after which Judge Hopewell asked , "itr.
Day. are. you here representing thestateT"
"I am , " answered Mr. Day , the assistant
county attorney.
"I will say this , " remarked Judge Hopo-
well. "Tho motion In this case for the
reason assigned Is a delicate question to
pass upon. The motion , however , has teen

tilled to a hearing. It Is proper that the
fnctn should be known , that the Unr nhoitia
ba presented and that the Rtate should be
represented. Judge Scott li entitled to be
heard K ho desires. He has been notified
nnd has entered a protest , -which Mr. Day
may read. "
The rirotfst , signed by Scott and directed
to the other judges , waa to the effect that
the ca a wan upon his docket , assigned to
him , He held that 1C the case was
transferred then any other ca > o could take
the same course. The defendant had Ills
rights of npneal.
"I had arcn another Judge , " wrote Scotl ,
"hut HoscYiotcr played h'm ' and he would not
come. The plaintiff objects to one ot you
trying the case an strrnuoiiily as does
Koicwater object to me trying It. "
Ho Insisted that ho should be left to try
the case , and said that the press of busi
ness prevented him from being presnt.
Jii'lgo Hoppu-ell Instructed Mr. Slmeral to
make his showing.
WHY A THANSPEIl WAS ASKED.
In arguing for the transfer Mr. Slmeral
said there had be-n nothing * ald or done by
.Mr. Hosewater to prevent any of the out
side Judges coming to Omaha nnd trying the
cane. It wns generally understood that one
of the Judges , with whom Scott had conferred ,
had told him that ho did not care to coma
here and wash his Judicial linen. The wlt-
ncsso.1. Mr. Slmoral urged , had been notified
to be present and give testimony.
In response to this statement , Judge Hope-
well asked , "Mr. Day , " ( addressing himself
to the assistant county attorney , who ap-
prared on behalf of Scott ) , "Is that true ? "
Mr. Day responded that the witnesses had
been served , or at least those for the prose
cution.
Continuing his remarks , Mr. Slmeral
quoted law , tending to show that the Judges
uero Justified In making the change asked
for , and that any one of them would be com
petent to try and determine the Issues. The
right of every man to have a fair nnd im
partial trial was a constitutional right.
granted by the laws of the United States and
the mngna charter. It was urged that
prior to the time when the Information
against Mr. Tlosewnter was Hied In the police
court , Judge Scott had said that he expected
this case to come before htm , and that at
that time ho had declared that he was In
tending to turn it over to some other judge.
one outsldo this district. In making that
statement he anticipated that Mr. Uosowatcr
was to be arrested and held to the district
court. If there ever was a case where a
change was Justified Mr. Slmoral main
tained that this was one.
Assistant County Attorney Day In behalf
oC Scott declared that ho and Mr. Slabaugh
had been assigned to try the case In thq dis
trict court and disclaimed any prejudice
sgalnst a transfer to the docket of any mem
bers of the bench In the event" that It was
taken away from Judge Scott. Ho held to
the view that the criminal branch of the
district court could not be Interfered with ,
nor could the dignity of the same be In
fringed upon. > If the showing for the trans
fer was sumclent , he should not object to the
removal , but he could not help but think
that the purpose of the motion was an In
fringement upon the duties of the criminal
branch. Ho did not believe that there was
any law for the transfer and he was sure that
the rule of the court could not apply. It
was a matter of Indifference to the state
who tried the case , but ns the criminal
Jocket had been assigned to Scott , ho main
tained that he was the- proper judge to dis
pose of all criminal matters. XJonslderlng the
lateness of the time of the filing of the
motion , Mr. Day.thought that It was hardly
fair to ask for a transfer.
PAIR TRIAL INSISTKD ON.
Judge Estelle , In behalf ot Mr. Hosewater ,
said that It was no pleasant duty fir him or
Ills associate to perform , but it was a duty
which ho was compelled to perform In the
interest of justice. "If my cowardly legs
were controlled by my heart , I would put
the Missouri river between myself and this
rourthouse. " added Judge Estelle. Mr. Es-
lelle said that all that he asked was that
the contract between the state and Mr.
Ilosewater bo carried out and that he be
ijlven a fair and Impartial trial. There was
a principle at stake , above and beyond any
Individual , and for that principle he said
that he would fight as vigorously as though
his life were the issue. It the law waa silent
upon the inbject of the change to another
judge , It certainly did not mean that a man
had to be tried before a Judge who could not
bo fair and impartial.
Scott's former action lit handling the case
Mr. Estelle described as being like unto the
voice of Jacob and the hand of Esau. While
there was no power named to take a case
from one judge and transfer It to another ,
there was an unwritten law that a man's
liberty wai not to be put. In Jeopardy by
causing him to appear before a man who
was his enemy. The trial of the case , he
contended , would be a mockery and could not
but put the court of the district court Into
Jisrcpute if It went on before Scott , It being
known that he had such hostility against
Mr. Rose water.
"Outside of the statutes. " added Mr. Es
telle , "we are today contending for our
rights , as did the barons of Hunnymede ,
when , with ihelr swords and shields , they
wrested from King John the charter whlcli
3ald that every man should be tried before
u fair Judge.
"We are now confronted by the statement
of the county attorney that our motion for
a transfer of this case has been made too
late , and -when wo were up before Judge
Scott when Mr. Roseualer wns arraigned.
wo were then confronted with the statement
that our application was made at too early
a date.
"Judge Scott said that ha had decided to
transfer the trial of the case to some other
Judge. Personally , I want to say that If he
will pass upon the law as Inadvlcably as he
has passed upon the facts' that have been be
fore him. ' I certainly want the trial to be
had before , some other Judge. The attorney
for the state says that It is too late , but" I
don't believe that II la ever too. late to ap
pear before an unprejudiced judge of this
district to ask for a fair trial when on Im
partial Judge Is upon the bench and an
honest < ury In thu box. "
MOTION IS GRANTED.
Asking for all of the papers In the case ,
Judge Hopewell , at 4 o'clock , stated that
the Judges would retire , and at the end of
thirty minutes they would return with their
findings. Time dragged heavily upon the
Immense number ot people who filled the
court room , but nt last the judges returned
and upon taking their places upon the bench
Judge Hopewell read the following :
In the district court of Douglas county.
State of Nebraska against Edward Ilose

the court. Judges Hopewell. Keysor , Fergu

SCOTT RUNS AGAINST IT. .
The < above order was delivered to Clerk
Moores and the court adjourned for tha day ,
the attorneys and other spectators having an
Idea thai the excitement of tlio day wai over ,
but In this they were counting wthout their
hosts , for Judge Scott Btlll had a part that he
wanted to put upon the boards before the
KOhig down of the sun. The Information had
been wafted over to his room th .t flve
Judges ot the district bench had taken the
Kosewatcr casa from his docket , and had
ordered It to the docket ot Judge Ambrose.
The Information caused Judge Scott to turn
llrld with rage , and hastily sending for
Clerk Moorcs , lie read the l&w to that official ,
tolling him not to allow tha papers iu the
io go out ot his hands. Then taking his
pen , with one easy twccp of his hand , ho set
aside the order made by live judges ot the
dUtrlct court and entered the following In
Its atead :

and tha whole and entire order be and the

CUNNINGHAM. H. BCOTT , Judge.
THREATENS THE CLERK.
Having removed a load from his over
burdened mind , Judge Scott onca more di
rected bis attention to Clerk Moorea , tell
ing him to not enter the order made by the
tlve judges In the Journal of the courts.
"What shall I do ? " asked Mr , Moores.
"Oboy my orders , " -replied Judge Scott
with much vehemence , "nnd If you let any
of tha papers go out of your hands , and If
the papers , in this case and the docket Is
not on my desk In the morning , I will cite
you for contempt. If you enter the order
made by Judge Hopaxvell and Ills associates
I will cite you for contempt. "
Moores did not say that he would obey ,
and It he would have said so ho was not
given time , for Judge Scott opened up again
and said : "I don't allow you to go Into
other courts and get orders telling mo how
to dispose of my business , "
After the court had adjourned for the day ,
and after all of the orders bad been Is
sued. Mr. Moores was asked what he was
Intending to do In the- premises , to which he
replied : "I shall obey the order of the
court , carrying It out to the letter. " Upon
being asked what In his opinion constituted
the court , Mr. Moorcs answered with a smile :
"Five judges , I suppose. "
This morning lively times are. anticipated ,
as the trial U called for both courts , and
some ot the papers are In the hands of the
clerk , while others are In the possession of
Judge Scott , who yesterday Intimated that
there would bo eome contempt proceedings
If any person Interfered with him In the
trial of the now celebrated case.

SACRAMENTO , Cal. , Oct. 10. On the 2Slh
of September John S. Johnson caused a sen
sation In bicycle , circles the world over by
riding n inllo \VuUlmin ' , Mass. , In tlio
phenomenal time of lCOi. . This -wonderful
feat was eclipsed In this city today when
Otto Zelgler of .San Jose covered the in lie In
1:50. : clipping nearly a full uecond ofT the
world's record. As a matter of fact ho did
rldo the mlle in n fraction over 1:49 , but as
one ot the tcveral watches made It 1:50 :
flat , the JuJges placed the official time at
that figure.
This mile of young Zelglcr's Is'tho fastest
ever run on n bicycle. It was made with a
flying start , and he was paced by tandem
teams , one taking him to three-eighths , an
other to the nve-elghths and the third pac
ing him to the outcome. It waa a typical
Sacramento autumn sky. The sky was with
out a cloud and the temperature Just warm
enough' to enable the racers to put forth
their best energies. Thcro was a light breeze
from the northwest , and this , it was feared ,
would not allow of record-breaking , but
Zclgler was In fine form and determined to
make the effort. The riding was done under
the supervision of tha Sacramento Athletic
club wheelmen , under the rules of the League
of American "Wheelmen , which makes It
the oniclal record. The Judges were II , A.
Moore. A. \ \ ' . Williams and II. E. McCrca.
Tha timers were C. Patton , H. H. Blair and
GeorgeKnelr. . Ileferee , W. A. Hubbard.
Starter , L. S. Upson. The pacemakers were
Wells and Hall , Smith and Olscn , and Del-
mar and Hamilton. The start was a flno one ,

three orange-colored balls rolling behind the
Inside fence. Near the three-quarter polo Del-
mar and Hamilton were getting under way ,
and by the time the others came up they
were at their full speed. Thcro was a per

vcro fairly trembling with excitement and
enthusiasm as the watches ticked off 1:23. :
Zelcler still had twenty-seven and thrce-
ntths seconds In which to equal Johnson's
record , and there was no reason to fear he
would not beat it , for the fresh tandem
riders were bringing him down tha course
at a tremendous rate of speed. Within
about sixty yards of the wire , Zclcler , who
had been riding almost on top of his fresh
and speedy pacemakers , could wait no longer ,
and. shooting out to one side , he ( lew past
them and passed under the wire as already

him.On
On most reliable authority tlio statement
13 made tbnt Lord Uunraven decided that
his llrst Valkyrie , which measured seventy
feet on the water line the ship with which
lie rlinltenped three years ago wns hardly
large enough for his nil-round purpose , con
sequently lie decided to challenge next year
with nn eighty-footer. He held strongly
to tills notion until a little more than n
month ago. when he learned that Fife had
nn order for n boat over ninety feet , and
that James Gordon Bennett's new boat
would turn out to be a ninety-footer. In
the latter event ho saw but little chance
for an eighty-footer on the other side to
win the cup , nnd being- bound by his own
precedent , which allowed all American boats
available for the defense of the cup to be
counted In again , | ie wisely decided to KO
the limit length nnd build a ninety-footer ,
thus asking no favors of the Now Yo k
Yacht club ns to length. In fact , there arc
mojiy hero who believe that Watson has
himself preferred a ninety-footer to a
seventy-footer.
Work on the boat will commence nt once ,
and the clmlenne ] may be sent a little
ahead of the olllclal required time.
Watson will say nothing about his new
order , except that she will 110 doubt be
across and sail for the cup. It goes with
out question that , as In the case of the
Thistle , nn attempt will be made to build
her In secret. In building the ninety-fooler
Lord Dunravcn has irene to the limit of the
new deed of gift , and , consequently , need
have no fear of existing boats.

MEUCKD , Cul. , Oct. 16. The Merced
bank , which has been dong business hero
since 1KB. closed Its doors this morning.
The failure Is due to the bank's Inability to
realize on Its securities. As yet the olllclals
of the bank have made no Htntemcnt , but
It Is known the bank had over $200.000 loaned
to merchants and rangers of this com
munity. on which they could not realize ,
The concern's statement to the Mate bank
commissioners In July last gave the bank's
resources as $213,029. The principal Item * of
the bank's liabilities nt that time were , : Cap
ital paid in coin. $18,000 ; due ilcpofltoia ;
$100,037 ; due other banks. $25.000. The dlieo-
tors of the bank are all substantial business
men. It Is believed that the depositors will
be paid In full and that the failure will
have no disastrous- effect upon the business
of the community.
While the failure is undoubtedly due to
the general financial stringency , the imme
diate cause of the suspension Is said to beef
of a political nature. For years It has been
customary for the county treasurer to place
the county funds In open deposit with the
three banks of Merced. County Treasurer
Bartlctt was defeated for rcnomlnatlon In
the recent democratic county convention ,
and attributing his defeat to the Interfer
ence of the ofllclals of the Merced bank , he
demanded the county funds deposited with
the bank. Part of the money was paid
to him. Other depositors learning of
the action of the treasurer withdrew their
deposits. Thus was started a run which the
bank could not meet. This evening there la
a report that Treasurer Bartlett'H bondsmen.
will compel him to withdraw the many
thousand dollars which he ban on open de
posit with the Commercial Savings bank
and the * Security Savings bank ,

out of health , lurvous , sleepless , run down J
In flesh , with poor appetite , not know Ing Juat
what was the matter with thorn , MhoulJ
look to their digestion , to the stomach , nnd
there would nnd the secret of the wholu
trouble. He says nine out of ten will have
no nervous trouble , no Impure blood , no
weakness anywhere when the digestive
organs do their work properly. To cure In
digestion and dyppopsln he never advises
"sarsaparlllas , " "stomach hitters " "
, "pro-di
gested food" or any other secret patent
medicine , Ilo says that the best thing , the
Hafest nnd surest ciira Is Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets , because they are composed of vcgo-
tuulo essences , fruit salts , pure pepsin nnd
bismuth , and will euro dyspepsia In eviry
case If taken persistently and regularly.
Some of the cure * made by Stuart's Dyspep
sia Tablets nro llttlu short of miraculous ,
Mrs. Charlotte Lane of Uunsomvlllc , N. V. ,
writes : I have taken only ono GO-cent package -
ago of Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets nnd am al
most astonished at results , they have bcno-
fllted mo so greatly. I have always under
stood that dyspepsia was Incurable , but now
know It can bo cured , for I nm fully satisfied
with what tluy have done for me. I can
eat and enjoy my meals a great deal better
and feel bettor In every way nnd have only
used fine package.
Mr. J. O. Wondly of Peorln , III. , writes : I
was unable to oat anything but the plainest
food , and even that often distressed mo , but
since using ono box of Stuart's Dyspepsia
Tablets I turn eat anything and everything I
want.
Mrs. Samuel Kepplo of Glrly. Pa. , writes :
I have bo3n entirely relieved of my stomach
troubles by your Tablets. I suffered three
years with sour stomach and gas at night I
am thankful fur them.
Mrs. A. R. Bowen , Darnard , Vt. , writes : I
think Stuart's Uj-Kpcpsla Tablets are the best
thing for dyspepsia I ever took , I will
recommend them to any ono troubled as bad
as I was.
Although a new remedy , yet Its remarka
ble success Iu nil kinds ot stomach troubles
has practically settled the qustlon that It la
the best and safest remedy that can bo used
for weak or disordered digestion.
It is prepared by the Stuart Chemical Co , .
Marshall. Mich. , and for sale by druggists
everywhere at CO cents per package , thus
placing it within the reach ofoveryono
wishing to glvo a remedy so highly com
mended a fair trial.
