O'N1ILb , Neb. . Jan. 3.-Speclal ( Tc1o
gram.-I ) Is now the torn t lay since Bar-
ret Scott was snatched trol his 1 carriage at
Parlier , parated from his family an.1 hur-
neil away Into the ) gorges at the Nlolrara
valley , hero ( to be dealt wHh as the fancy at
his captors might dictate. During that time
every effort that prsna1 rrlemlshlll or the
deslro for justice could sugget has been t1-
. flIOyetl to ascertaIn his tate and bring his
Iupposed ) murderers to justice. Three-scores
OF determlnell men have followed the trail
oC the vlglants by day and camped upon It
Jt nIght , miles at desolated country have been L
scoured. Ever ) ' man and woman between L
O'Nei and the Niobrara river has becn
qUeston I , All this has been entirely trull-
Iesz. The mystery at Scott'9 tate remains m
unsoh'ed. No trace has been tounl to Indicate -
' cate that he ID alive , nor has his Inanimate
4 ' 1 . body been brought baele to sadden the heath m
or these who loved him Three of the men I I ,
who are belev l to have a hand In the murderous - '
11erous assault are In the possession of mur-I' m
I I law. Another who Is the alleged leader of r
'r' the bloody caUee Is under surveiance , and , I
may ho brought In at any moment. Whie
. il0 evIdence against these men Is In no case I
'cncluslve. It Is i Bunclcnty strong to warrant I
. , the belief that nt least two or them have
some knowledge ot the alair , Sheri laml-
ton and a score or deputes are still hard at ]
'work and 1 Is believed that the next few
. days will bring additional developments.
ROY OWNED TiE TEA I.

, ' , : ' Elliott , who was brought In yeslerday. Mit I
10y and James Plnlermfl , Roy Is the I
young mm : who was spotted by Iarsllal I
Hal and his 1)0500 when they arrested m- I
, 7 . . itoti. I Is fully established that ho Is the '
owner or the sorrel team and carriage which ) m '
conveyed Mrs. Scott . Miss McWhorter and I
the children from the ( scene or the shoot
Ing to Dartel's farm. Suspicion atachld I
to Roy before the jesse left O'Neill. They
. had obtained from the Scott family an ex-
celent description of the rig , and at once ,
suspected That It was the one that Roy was
kncwn to own. Boy lives on James Pinker
man's farm , which Is about a mile llstant t
from EIUons ' house , near Scottvtlle. I WI
decided not to rest hIm-at the tie , In 'Ihe
. expectation that something could bo learnM SI I
' from Elliott that would throw addllonal I
light on the case. After Elliott was arrested -
rested he stated that he and Roy were together -
gether Monday afternoon. Early this morn -
tog halt and Elsworih 1ack started . for the
Plnlcrman farm -with " 'warrantfor '
( far -ih "n 'warrant- Roy's
arrest. Soon after the suspect started to
drive for O'NeIll. He missed the ofcers
and arrived here alone this afternoon. He
was drIving the identical . rig that hal been
described by Mrs. Scott. He was Just hItch
tug his heres when he was seen by Special I
Deputy 'Veelca who Immediately placd him
under arrest. Weeks was a warm , trleml
) of Scott's , and one of Iarshal Hail's possc .
, Doth the prIsoner and his rig were taken to ;
Scott's resIdence. There Mrs. Scott and 1Iss
McWhorter pesltvely declared that this was
the rig which had talen them to Bartells.
CONDEMNED DY IS FATHER.
I Is an interesting circumstance that the
lb parents of young Roy were at the Scott resIdence -

Scottvllie. Both Mr. and Mrs. Roy are close
'trlends at tie Scott family. They came to I
9'Nel as soon as . they heard of their mis-
fortune , and have bon with them ever since.
The scene when Roy was brought In was an
affecting one. The old man beheld hIs son

Im'l his mind at tim burden of gIlt. Milt

PnSONlmS TALK FREELY.
Roy and Plnllerman were both interviewed ,
and seemed perfectly wIlling to tel their
Rtcry. Roy said that Ire went over to the
EllIott place about noon londay. lie had
a colt that he was talking about trading with
Elliott , and the two men , with a neighbor
named Iulhan , went over to the range ,
about nIx miles southwest , to leak at Elliott's
horses. 'fhey did not return until late In the
afternoon. This Is the same story that was told I
by EllIott , but the officers claim that when
they arrested \ Elliott he told them that he
and Roy vera alone cn the 1rlp. Pinkerman
claims to have been In O'Nei until .1 o'elock :
Monday : afernoon , when he drove out to the
tarm. lo then Joined the rest or the party ,
but claims that at II tme he did not know
that a tragedy hnd occurred.
All threD of the accused arc defended by
Attorney P. M. llurrlngton. H. M. Utley
will 'conduct : the proseculon. The evidence
that has been discovered has given allltonal
credence to' the belief that Scot was mur.
dered by the vigilance committee that I\S-
posed of Ralph Hi and his son last July.
All or ' time men who have been arrested arc t
supposed to b members of that organization .
I this Is the case , It Is beloved that It will
bo difficult to effect n conviction. No mem-
bar at any of the vigilance committees 1hat
have existed In the Niobrara valley durIng
the past twelve years has ever been known
'to make a ccnfesslon. They wel understand
'a clone month stands between them and I
death.
GOADED TO DESPERATION.
An old M resllen't of this seton , and 1
prominent democratic politician , said today
that time men who killed Scott were not law-
less men In the ordinary acceptance of the ,
term. They hall not had a crop tor two I
years Their property had elepreclaleci
Their taxes were Imigh. Many of them werm :
hungry and alt hih Ic&pera te. They wee
leved that ' Scott had approprlat ll $10,000 UI [ r
the taxes that had been wrung from their
tamlsh pockets They had been led to be-
leve that he wonld only receive a lght 1un-
Ishment at the most and when he was turned 1 i
loose before their eyes , they Imagined that L
their only hope or justice lay In violence
Attorney HarrIngton , 'who will defend the
prisoners . says that he has no doubt that
the farmers In the north country have been
wrought up to that point where they were
fully eapaIle or killing Darrett Scott. They
believed that he had grown rich out ot their
pockets , and that the $1OOOOO that they
lost through the t lure or the lol county
bank had been sacrificed by Scott and his m
trlends. Now they saw him driving past
their , Impovtrilhed farina with a carriage :
and a coachman whie they were hurlng :
dried cow chips for fuel , anti their chidren m
were barefooted. AIM this to the tact that
they were reckless men by nature and train -
lng , a 11 It was not stramme that they. were '
moved by revengeful emotions.
DEFENSE IS CONFIDENT.

straight story concerning their whereabouts m
during the time when the shootng was m
going on at Parker , and lw could anyone
prove that they were not telling the truth ,
There ! I a rather curious situation In the ;
case of Mose immiatt. He was released on
bond hy Judge McCutchan to appear at 2
, o'clock Monday. He was rearrested and
alIen before Judge Wagers A change of
yenuo was allowed . and the case was taken
before Justice Wilcox. lie again released
Elliott on a $500 bond , and the preliminary
examination was Set for Tuesday. Elliott
has two examinatons scheduled and It I
clalmell that tIme only way out or the tangle (
to Is to hold both examinatons as billed.
WHAT DELL AIKEN WAS AI TEn.
The nature of time mysterIous Intormatcn
which Mrs , Scott imparted to Del Aldn. and
whIch caused him to leave abruptly upon an
unknown nmisslon has heen ascertaIned. It
Indicates that at Parker Darrel Scott recognized -
nized lt least enC of the men who took his
life . At that time he whispered to hIs wIfe

CINCINNATI , Jan. 3-There was a great
sensaton In the central part of the city thIs
afernoon on account of exaggerated rumors
about tIre daylight robbery ot time postomce.
I was after 2 o'clock when Asslstnnt Cashier
Frank ii. Sparks was found lying on time
floor In an unconscious cOOUton by Janitor
John \\'eise. No noise had prcvlously becn
hean i } about the place , but when Welso gave
the alarm an enormous crowd soon surouOled
the building. When , Postmaster Zumstein ,
Inspector Salmon and CashIer Tucker or-
rh'el In the cashier's once ! , Sparks lll not
appear to bo bal , ) ' hurt , alhough ho hal a
bIg bump on : his toreheall : There was no
doubt whatever about time mooney drawer
beIng slort $ SG7. CashIer Tucker and tIme
others waited until Sparks tool his lunch
first , anti then they went to humid : . Sparks
was alone at 1:30 : p. 1" , when , ho says , two
men entered the office anal asked for smal
change for a $5 hull. While he was Inloelng
the money drawer one bt thcm rtisime.1 through ,
.
the small creen door . which II\pened to be '
open , anti soon they were upon him. : He
BUYS he dealt one at them a hard blow but
was himsel struck by a pair of Iron knocks ,
and ho knows nothing that tralsllired front
that tlno untIl ho was aroused by JanItor
\\cise.
The watchman , who Is constantly patr01n
the corridor , says that he saw no such : men !
Sparks describes either enter or leave the
cashier's 0111cc . While all the police , detec-
tvs , deputies and Inspectors have been work-
lag during the afternoon and nIght on the :
theory or a robbery , yet they have been
shadowing every movement of Sparks since
he let the omc ' , as well as looking out for
either the robbers or accomplces , They say
that It would have been very plausible for
the robbers to have asked for change : for a
$5 bill , so 3S to locate tIme money tirawer as
wel as to get It unlocked before they rushed
In on the man In charge of the omce. Dut
the detectives go so far as to say that Sparlls'
Injure forehead Is not the result of Iron
knuckles or of a. slunfshot beIng used on : L
him , but at a bump inflicted by contact will :
time vault or something equally hard.
On a center table near the money drawer
was over $5,000 In envelopes for the letter car
rIers , thIs being their pay day. Although It :
was In trays that could have been easily car-
reid off , I was not touched . Sparks thinks I
this Is because these envelopes were covered I
by a newspaper There was a much larger
amount still In time vault , which was open , ,
and which was not touched. These circumstances -
stances would weigh In favor of Sparks were I
It not for the fact that this : was the day for
his settiements. After paring oft the car
riers ho shoull have had $ SG1 In the drawer , ,
but the II getectves arc unable to ascertain m
whether he had any other considerable : ,
amount - In the drawer before the robbery
T.hey f r with suspicion 'to the door tn Ule 5 :
scrCu guard being lett open at a time when I
the assIstant ' cashIer was alone wIth $861 In

cessIble ; They are not only shalowIng
Sparks , but also InquIring Into his habits Sam 1 .
sssoclates. As nobody was In . the office ex"
ccpt Sparks when the robbery occurrcd . It Is
Impossible to get anythIng except his own m
statement. Time ) ostofce building adjoins :
Fountain square , In the center of time city ,
where the streets are always crowded during
the day. Time . fact at a daylight robbery In
such I locaton had much to do with the
local excitement of time afternoons and evening.
Frank H Sparks , the assistant cashier
of the postoffice was arrested tonight , and
shortly afterward confessed that he got away
wih the money hhnselt. He was short
$283.30 , and was to settle as soon as Cashier
Tucker returned tram huncir , when he knew
he would be caught Whie Tucker was
lunching Sparlu took $583G8 from the
drawer , put $5G2 In his between the
leaves at a magazine and $21.28 In coin In

tesslon he toM where this money vas . anti ,
$583.G8 was recovered , Sparks Is married
and belongs to a good family . His friends
will make up the shortage at $283. but Inspector -
