8 THE OMA11A DAFTLY JJEIBi HUES DAY , yQVJSMBBll 20 , 1305. DID NOT SHAKE H'CDIRE ' Spoorl's ' Attorney Tries Hard to Ruin His Testimony. * GOT MORE THAN HE BARGAINED FOR Attempt ( o Iinncni'li ( lie Clmrnetrr Of HlP WltllFHH lIllHIICCPNUflll YcHlcrdnj'n I'ropcrilltiRH III , the DoKculclier CIIHC. U was almost U o'clock yesterday bo /ore the trial of John Spoerl was taken up In the criminal court. The earlier part of the morning hour ras occupied with the em paneling of the new Jury for the coming three weeks of this term of the dlstrlc court. On account of the fact that two.lm portanl criminal trials will occur during tbls time , the Ish murder trial and the Morgan murder trial , jurymen who did no' ' desire lo servo found It extremely difficult to be ex cuscd. When the case was finally reached the cross > csamlnatlon of Dncctlvo McQuIro by Spoerl's attorney was taken up. A numbe of wordy encounters occurred between th two , but In each case the witness had' fa the bsttcr of the repartee , and the attorney had at times some difficulty In suppressing hl chagrin. , Ho fulled entirely In brcalclnt down the testimony of the witness. McGuIre was asked why he had Hied two claims , one for $06 and the oilier for $100 , fo services performed. Ho answered that he had bten employed at a salary of $100 a month and that the first account had beci for his services during a part of July ant the other for August. He said In answer tea a < quoiilon that lie had hot been employed by Deavcr to do work for him Individually , bu understood that ho had been employed by the city. city.The attorney for the defense attempted to confuse the. witness regarding the distance between where he stood and the pound while he wau counting the dogs that wcr drowned , but McQuIre persisted In the utitc inent Hint he was not more than 300 fee from the pound and could ECS everythlnr connected with the killing of the dogs. , Ho was sitting on the dec of a patch o shrubbery and weeds , but not In the palch The weeds did not In any way obstruct his view. The pound house did not provsnt him from peeing thu operations of thepoutidmas UT'B employes In drowning the dogs. ' BUT' ' M'OUIHE KNEW. The attorney also attempted to make the witness sny that he could not tell whether oho , or two , or thrto dogs , If small , were taken out of the wagon nt a tlmo to b. drowned , but Mcdulre said that the dogs were never taken out more than one at a time. He had taken memoranda at the time of the number of dogs drowned each day. The attorney asked the witness If he hai sworn In police court that sixteen dogs hai been diowned en August 28 nnd had sworn on Saturday that there were only fifteen McOuIro said that he1 did not remember , bu that he did recollect that he was In doub whether the number of dogs drowned on one day was fifteen or sixteen , and testified tha he had sworn In pollcs court that thesw wore sixteen In order to give the defendants the bene'flt of the doubt. McGuIre said that ho had reported to Chle White two or three Hints while he was en gaged In the work. He had done other work for the chief , but It occupied him during the frarly evenings and Interfered In no way with watching the pound. The attorney for the defense attempted to show that McQulre's character was no of the best because ho had been accompanied In his work by John 13. Dell , a newspaper reporter , against whom there Is at pres ent a warrant on file In police court. Mc GuIre said that ho had known Dell only slightly before coming to Omaha , having r met him In his reportorlal .capacity nt a fire. When he came to this city Bell was out of work and accompanied McQuIre in i Ills Investigation. vThen followed a lively tilt between the attorney and the witness. The attorney started out with a good deal of enthusiasm to prove that McGnlre had been arrested In this city , but the rumor which had been current to that effect was fully cxplalnec by the witness. "Were you'arrested In this city , Mr. Mc- Gulro ? " asked the attorney. "I was never arrested In my life , " was the answer. "Were you ever taken In custody by a police officer ? " "Never. " "Did Olflcer Thomas take you into cus tody ? " "Never. He went down to the pollco sta tion with me at my request. I know whal ydh nro referring to and I can explain It. " < HE HAD TO HEAR IT. The attorney did not want the explana tion , but the county prosecutor Insisted that It should be admitted. Ho had been making objection to the questions as each was asked , but the court had not sustained him In them. At tlilo point he instated , how ever , that the witness should bo permitted to make a full answer to the question. In stead of being cut off as he had been there tofore. The court upheld this position a > nU McGuIre vtcnt on to tell of the alleged ar rest. 'He raid that while ho was engaged on tha Spoerl case he had been employed to do some other work at nlghtt On the night In-question He was shadonlng a man who lived In the neighborhood of OfTlcor Thomas' residence. His movements were probably suspicious , and the officer In his shirt sleeves accosted him. McGuIre did not Itnow ho was n policeman until ho showed a Etnr. If.3 then offered to accompany the officer ( o the nearest patrol box , where the latter might telephone to Chief White or Captain Mostyn to learn about his busi ness. At the box they were met by Officer Ilentfrow. The station was called up , but neither the chief nor the captpln was there nnd no one else on the force know McCulre. Thereupon , at McGulro's request , the three went to the police station , when McGuIre was Identified by the captain. THAT. 1IKCICKTT CASE AGAIN. Alipllriilioii for u Writ of Mail dn mil it lu litJliHle. . Jiulgo Scott has been notified by a notice filed ulth the cleric of tha district court that on'-December ' 3 , at 9:30 : o'clock a. m. , or as soon thereafter as the case can bo taken up , an application will be made to tlie supreme court fur n writ of mandamus , compelling him to fcottlo and'allow a bill of exceptions In the contempt case against Attorney W. D. Beckett. It will bcs remembered that Beckett had gone to tee- Scott In chambers and In the course of hlu conversation remarked that he would like to have Judge Dufllo on the bench with Scott In a rehearing on an Injunction In , the county poor farm esses. This stirred up the blood of the Judge of the criminal court , as ho took the remark as something of an Insinuation against himself , and ho said that there would bo no rehearing , "But you Mid that I could have a rehear ing , " ald Beckett , "I did not , " angrily answered the Judge. "Get out of my ofllco. " But Beckett would not meekly get out , nnd Scott's bailiff , Savage , Jumped forward to put him out. lie received a blow In the face from Beckett's fist and Beckett walked quietly out of the room. A few days later Deckctt wan fined $100 for contempt of court , which was to bo paid on the first day of the Sep tember term. Scott refused a now trial , but the sentence was stayed by on order from the supreme court. On August 17 , on the Fame day that the con. tempt proceedings were instituted , Beckett filed a bill of exceptions. Scott refused to sign them , saying that there was no hurry In the matter. Beckett made a protest , but it was Ignored and the bill was turned over to Scott for hU signature , Slnco that time he lies .not seen fit to sign It. Beckett hai there * fore been unable to file n brief In the caie In the 'supreme court and It Is consequently be ing threatened with dismissal. Judge Scott has been asked a number ot f-4 times by the attorneys for Beckett to sign the bill , but li uaq never done BO , al though he lias promised to sign every time. On October 10 an application for his signa ture was made , but ho said that he had not examined the bill yet , but would do so before long , A number of other requests were made , the last one on October 31 ; when announced that lie intended la leave , P\ the bfrnch for two weeks. At that tlmo ho wan too busy , but would sign the bill after election. U WAR shown to him that the case was cct for hearing In the miprcme court on November 6 , and that therefore II was necessary to obtain hli tlgnnture to the bill before he left In order to flic a brief In time. Thereupon he promised to sign the bill at once and to file It with the clerk ol the district court by October 23 , Wher October 23 arrived the bill was not filed am Scott was out of the city and remained away for two weeks.

This rule will be- enforced by a squad of special deputy sheriffs. U Is expected that there will be fully as great a number of people who will desire to bo present at the trial as there waa at the Sam Payne trial. During that trial the crowds In the court room nerc so dense tha It was Impossible for the court officials to do their work and the officials1 are determine ! that the same condition shall not exist during the Morgan trial.

The- two Omaha distilleries , the Willow Springs nd the Columbian , will remain closed for n time at least. The Willow Springs concern It a part ot the property of the trust , having been gathered In some years ago. Some weeks ago the Information was given out that the plant would open for business early next month. Now , however , not withstanding the fact that there Is an abun dance of corn and that it Is cheaper than has been known for years , the1 edict has gone forth that the opening of the concern has been postponed for an Indefinite period ot time. Up to this tlmo the Columbian distillery has been an Independent concern , running re gardless of the orders or desires of the trust. As such , it had completed ar rangements for starting up the coming week. Things , however , have changed and It Is Impossible to say when the Columbian will bo In operation. It was reported that officers of the trust had been coquetting with the officers of the company and that th y had been offered a largo subsidy If they would keep their plant closed for an Indefinite period , Yesterday the manager of the Colum bian plant said that there was some trutl In the report that trust officers had been making overtures.

Women do many tilings tlfnt get them all out of order. Careless dressing , exposure to draughts , over exertion these nnd many others start the trouble. A slight cold may run into the most ser ious complications. Perhaps none of these things would amount to much if only care were ex ercised to remedy them at once. Neg lect is n most pro lific cause of serious female troubles. By nnd b- , the trouble is so much aggra vated that the jpny- sician's skill is needed nnd then the dread of the examinations so much in vogue nt present , deter the sufferer still longer. As a matter of fact , examinations and "local treatment" should not be sub mitted to till everything else has failed. Nine times in ten , they are wholly un necessary. Women were cured before these obnoxious methods came into prac tice.
