There were no very startling develop
ments yesterday In the Wizard Telephon'

Brown members was held In the mornlni

W. Hewitt , attorney for Willow and DeLej
and another share to Henry Stevenson. The ;
were then made members of the board of dt
rectors with the understanding that thel
stock was to ba pald off In work.
Brown notified the other fellows that I
they sold the stock which they Issued t
themselves the day before and paid for li
worthless notes ho would bring a crlmlna
action against them. Willow and DeLe de
elded that the stock should not be issue
until It was paid for.

ordinance , and there Is not much doubt tha
It will bo vetoed If the present appearanc
of fraud Is not removed. Until the franqhls
Is completed by the mayor the company wll
be able to sell very little stock and the ca
reer of the organization , which made sue
great promises , will be brought to a sudde
end. It Is probable that an application for
receiver will b > made by Mr. Brown In th

with Miss Holt. She came to his room a
the Scott house one cold , stormy night. In
company with Charley Adams of "Sandy-
point" fame. They put up a pitiful storyt
say.lng the voung lady had no place to stay

Miss Holt did not seem to mind them In the

tucked away between the sheets. He denle
that any criminal act was committed , an
said that his action In the matter had been
due merely to the workings of a big hear
that was overflowing with charity for hi
fellow women.

Mowery and his wife , so Mowery claims , by
telling her whet had happened. The case

returned.

Mayor Hlllls , City Clerk Hooker , John
Sherman of the Board of Public Works , and

Judge Holmes today to answer In the case ot
Hanger & Moore against the city. Plaintiffs
claim that the city officials permitted pav
ing on property owned by them and thereby
violated on Injunction Issued two years ago.
They asked the court to have them answer
for contempt. They denied knowledge of the
Injunction and thought that would release
them. Judge Holmes overruled this view
and the taking of testimony was commenced.
The defendants attempted to show that In
junction papers were only served on the
mayor and city clerk and In the latter's case
It only enjoined him from Issuing paving
certificates , John Sherman , for the Board of
Public Works , heard that the city had been
enjoined , but afterwards settled regarding the
Injunction. The case was continued until
Monday In order that the city may Intro
duce the testimony of General EdVrljht , the
other member of the Board of Public Works ,

The first genuine confidence trick that has
been turned In this city for some time was
nicely worked at the Webster street depot
yesterday afternoon upon the usual victim , a
genuine farmer with a bushy bunch of
whiskers under his chin. Ills name Is An
drew Tebeau and ho lives in Ewlng , Holt
county.
Farmer Tebeau had been In Illinois for
some little time on business and arrived
In the city yesterday on his way home. He
was strolling about the depot platform , lookIng -
Ing out upon the bright and beautiful world ,
when a nlco appearing stranger engaged In
conveisat'on with him. Tie two weie delving
deeply Into the mysteries of crop raising
when an Individual hurriedly approached
Farmer's new friend and asked him for
some money to pay express charges on his
baggage , offering him a check as security
Fanner's friend expressed his sorrow that
he had no money and then suddenly turned
upon Farmer and asked him how much he
had. Farmer had JIG the very amount , th3
stranger remarked , he needed. There Is no
need of detailing the operation further. The
stranger departed with Farmer's $15 , his
new acquaintance suddenly dropped him and
somehow the vvoild appeared a little gloomier
to Farmer Finally It got so gloomy that
Farmer unbosomed himself to a policeman
and discovered that he had been beautifully
worked.
Then Farmer went to the police station
and was given a square meal and a night's
lodging , for he had been worked for all ho
had. He was unable to give more of a de
scription of the confidence men than that
ono was short and the other a little taller ,
and that one had on a brightly polished
pair of square toed sheen , the unusual
brilliancy of which had probably engrossed
Farmer's attention.

William Ryan , who wns held for trial on
the charge of burglary , was released In the
criminal court > estcrday afternoon. The' '
witnesses to prove the commission of the
crime were not on hand.
Ujan was charged with burglary at the
residence of J. H. Watson In April and ob
taining therefrom a $10 overcoat and a $0 $
Jacket. Detective Savage was Incensed that
Ryan should be released , stating that ho
believed a good case could be made out.
Watson and his family , however , failed to
appear nt 2 o'clock when the trial was
started. After swearlnR the Jury about 2 30 ,
Assistant County Attorney Winter arose and
stated that the witnesses were not on hand
The Judge ot the criminal section of the
district court Instructed a verdict for the
defendant.
It appears that Watson Is In Iowa on a
week's visit. He lives at Twenty-first and
California streets , where the burglary was
ommltted. Mr. Winter states that he had
ecu engaged In the trial of Hires cases prior
o this one and depended on the bailiff to get
lie witnesses on hand when the case was
ct for trial and did not learn until the trial
as taken up that the witnesses had not been
omul. The subpoenas had been given to the
hcrlff three dajs ago , ho said , and he sup
used that the witnesses would be In court
cady to prove the case , having depended
n another d ° partment to get his witnesses.
At the sheriff's office It was ascertained
liat the subpoenas had not yet been returned
nd would not have been until evening. In
his particular case they were being held
n the hopes of catching the parties , though
ubpoenas had also been left at the residence ,
he sheriff states , as required by law.

I Jettinrnt Suit ,
It develops In the squatter cases that the
irons man IMS been sued.
Joseph Pospenshlll was merely boarding
t the house of hlj slstcr-ln-law , so he In-
orms the court l.i an answer ho has Just
lied to an ejectment suit brought by the
st National bank of Chicago , which Is
ieeklng to oust him from the possession of a
nucli litigated strip of property fronting on
he Missouri river. He alleges that the bank
: nade a mistake when It served Its ejectment
papers on him , that he not only makes no
Uilin to the property at the present time but
icver has made any.
Pospenshlll has so small an Interest In the
attempt of the First National bank of Chicago
o oust him from his rights In the
jiremUes that a short time since
ha left on a trip to Germany , In
structing his attorney to enter up a dis
claimer In the case. He admits , however ,
hat his sister-in-law for eleven years pabt
has been living on the property and ex
plains his having been seen about the
premises by stating that he was a constant
boarder with his slstcr-ln-law. a widow , to
ivhoin he paid boarJ regularly every week
The property in question Is a bit of accro-
ton soil about 200 feet square , situated In the
squatters' heaven on lower Leavenworth
street and vicinity. For jears past the
bank has been trying to get possession or the
and. The city al&o , with an Idea of clearing
its streets In that vicinity of some houses
Jilred an attorney to offer the various
squatters $50 each to vacate. It Is chargei
that they took the money gladly , but the
permanent clearing of the property has been
a problem , as the parties appear to have
always felt free to como and go. Old settlers
can recall the time when there was no lam
at that point , except beneath the waters of
the river At Just about this point the ferry
at one time used to run from Omaha In a
northeasterly direction to Council Bluffs.

The Marrow-Hespeler fight In district court
has received a setback at the hands of Judge
Ambrose. He refused to entertain two mo
tions made by the plaintiffs , one asking that
the verdict In the cate be set aside , and the
other , that the court settle a bill of excep
tions. The damage suit of Reglna Marrow
against her sister , Emily Hcspeler , has been
In court so long that the details relating to
the fight between the two In the house of the
former are well known. For being beaten
with an ax and other weapons , tne former
recovered a verdict in 1891 of $4,000 against
her sister , who Is now dead. This verdict
Judge Ambrose set aside. When tried again
the case was lost. The overruling of the
present motions means that ths court rt
fuses to re-establish the first , or $4,000 vei-
dlct , and also refuses to settle a bill of ex
ceptions In the case EO as to appeal to the
supreme court. _

Another petition of Intervention In the canal
