WILLIAMS IS IN CHARGE
Witness Against Spoorl Has Keeping of tlio
Jury ,
HIS INTEREST IN THE OUTCOME PLAIN
rcrforniliiK Work for the
County Attorney Mint OfllHul
DIsnitiiH Any Hoponl-
lillll > for III * Conduct.
TTp to last night there was no Intima
tion given that the Jury In the Spoerl case
had any Intention of agreeing upon a verdict.
Judge Scott remained about the criminal
court room all morning , waiting for the
return of the Jury , and finally left for his
Thanksgiving dinner , to return again In the
ofternoon. In the meanwhile the Jury spent
the morning In Us room In the mysterious
operations In which all Juries arc engaged ,
went out to n good Thanksgiving-dinner and
then returned again to the room to plunge
Into the aforesaid mysterious operations oncu
more.
The Jury Is In the hands of JlallllT Wil
liam ! of the criminal court and It Is a llttlo
difficult to see why ho lu permitted to handle
It. It Is no secret about the court house
that If Williams does not really want to see
Spoerl arid Frank aciiultud he has at least
Intimated as much. Ills Interest In the case
has been to evident that he was called us a
wltnoM for Spoerl Wednesday , but neverthe
less when the coso was given to the Jury
that night the twelve men were turned over
to Williams.
Ucildes being a balllft of the criminal
court Williams IB a sort of assistant to the
county attorney , being engaged In making out
papers for servlcs and doing routine work
AH such he apparently considers himself
ROnethlnK | of a factor In the ofilce. When
the cases against Spoerl and r'l.ink were
dismissed gome' time ago the cilice was
Rc\crely criticised and Williams took it upon
himself to make a defense.
At that tlmo ho said that he did not think
that there was much In the cases anyway.
Ho remarked that almost all of the witnesses
for the state were far from bfing trustworthy
and that their characters were such that not
much credence could be placed In their evi
dence. 'His Interest In defendants went
so far as to lead him to charge that the cases
ngilnst Krnnk and Spoerl were nothing more
than a part and parcel of a political scheme ,
and he Intimated that there would be rejoicing
somewhere If the two men 'were acquitted
He said In mysterious terms that the men be
hind the prosecution were not at nich a char
acter that they could throw stones and that
the charges had been brought because of per
sonal spleen ,
IlETUACTKl ) A LITTLfi.
When Williams had gone as far as thli he
was Informed that his views did not appar
ently coincide with those of the county attor
ney. The latter had frequently remarked tha'
ho had a strong casa and that ho had some
pride In bringing about a conviction on the
evidence lie had on hand. Williams then took
water and attempted to retract what he had
said. He remarked that guilty men ought cer
tainly to bo punished , but the former words
had been spoken.
The county attorney had knowledge of the
fact that Williams had bson talking through
his mouth very extensively , for he saljl that
ho could not bo responsible for what tbe
Lalllfr hail stated. Nevertheless ever since
the Jury In tht > case was empaneled Williams
has had more or less to do with It.
If there was any additional reason re
quired , however , why Williams should not bo
allowed _ toTS " inlnghIn nny way wfth the Jury ,
T-S J9MMt.-Tu"rn during the course of the
Wi trlitrtt'edncs when , ho was called as a wlt-
ncs3 ) for tbs defense.
Two of the strongest witnesses In the case
against SpoErl were Officers Vanous and Col
lins. They had been detailed by Chief of
Police White to keep ths count cf the num
ber of dogs drowned during the month of
August. Theywatched the pound every day
In the month from 7 o'clock In th ? morning
until G at night. The count , ay mnilo by
them , was not moro than one-half of that
made by Spoerl and Frank , and carrssponded
with the count made by Detective McQuIro ,
who watched the pound from another point
In watching the pound the two men were
stationed on the Iowa side of the river di
rectly opposite. At times , usually when the
drowning occurred , they used an opera glass ,
but thlu was not very strongly brought out
In the trial. In consequence the defense
spent considerable time In attempting to
weaken the testimony of the two men on the
ground that they could rot tell what was
Kolng on at the pound on account of the dls-
tanco and particularly would not be able to
count the dogs drowned.
NO TnOUDLK TO SCR.
The county attorney sent two men to the
river Wednet > Jcy after the point had been
brought out. When they returned they went
on Hi ? stand and pworo that they were able
to plainly discern objects on the- opposite side
.of the river , could distinguish the various
limbs of a man's body , and thought that
they would have been nblo with tlio naked
cyo to distinguish the body of a dog thrown
a distance of eight or ten feet. This was the
distance that dogs were thrown from the
drowning box after the drownlngs took place.
The defendants , liowe\cr , did not take this
courho of obtaining evidence to suppo'rt their
contention. They obtained a witness out of
the county attoiney's olllce , Williams.
Williams swore that ho had , looked over
toward the Iowa side of the river from J-lda
to side , that ho saw a man there , and that
ho was unable to bay what hu looked like.
He said that In his opinion It waa Impossible
to distinguish the body of a dead dog from
any other object. Ho said ho bad gone to
the bank on Instructions from the county
altoiney.
After the witness had left the 8'tand the
county attorney paid that he had never sent
Williams to the river , and that Williams
had never reported to him any ob
servations that he made. Wllllanls ex
plained that ho had nude observations
Homo months ago when'he. had gone down
to the river during the search for Seljun's
body.
The most remaikuble thing about the mat
ter , however , Is that despite thesa facts , the
Jury was given to Williams. Ho
took earn ofllio members until they re-
tlreil. Ho has had charge of them before.
It IB no secret that the bailiff has oppor
tunities of speaking to Juroru Individually
If ho so desires. _

Considerable business WAS transacted at the
meeting of Central Labor union Wednesday
night. After the meeting had been called to
order by President Fisher the reports of the
various committees were In order. A pro
longed discussion as to the dale and place
for the next annual ball resulted In the selec
tion of Washington hall , and January 13 , as
the time. It was resolved that the hatters
union be furnished with red labels , pro
vided that members had union cards In their
possession showing them to be In good stand
ing.
ing.A
A suggestion was made by John Kulin that
a reading room be established by the Cen
tral union for the use of nil organized
tradesmen In the city. Mr. Fisher stated
that he had made Inquiries on the subject
and had found that n suitable room could
be secured for $11 per month. He thought
that the costo \ the different unions would be
trilling , considering the benefits to be
derived. He had talked with II. C. Waller
and It was thought that the writing desks
would be furnished by merchants for the ad-
vcrtloliiK which they would derive there
from , lie thought possibly the carpets and
other articles of furniture might also bo
secured by donation , If the mutter was
properly placed before the public. It was
proposed to place a cigar counter In the
room , the proceeds of sales to bs ussd In
defraying expenses. A committee composed
of Waller , Kennedy , Kleffner , Carrlgan and
Julius Meyer was appointed to Investigate
the matter and perfect arrangements.
A communication was read from J. Kauf
man of the Musical union , stating that the
Durant Hnglne company had advertised a bill
and that It would employ union musicians.
This was denied by Mr. Kaufman , he stating
that nonunion men had been employed to
furnish the music. He requested the Central
union to support the- Musical union In refus
ing patronage.
A letter wns read from the Holler Makers
union , requesting the central branch to sup
port George H. Hcnkcll for the position of
city boiler Inspector. A letfr wns requested
from the secretary , recommending him to the
mnyor as a competent man. It was resolved
that the secretary be Instructed to request
that the mayor appoint only union men as In
spectors.
A circular from a Detroit labor union was
received. In which It was stated that William
Strauss would probably visit this city during
a tour for the purpose of collecting funds for
the striking cigar makers of Djtrolt. It was
decided that he be receUed and assisted by
the local unions.
A letter was nextread from the secretary
of the N'pbrarka State Federation of Labor , In
which It was stated that a committee com
posed of H. H. Overall. Osorgo Christopher
and II. S. Thomas had been appointed to ar
bitrate the trouble now existing between the
Knights of Labor and the Central Labor
union. In connection with the Musical union.
In which It was charged that the Knights of
Labor had employed scab musicians at one of
their balls. The approval of committee
was requested , A long discussion followed ,
which finally resulted In a resolution that the
State Federation of Labor be requested to call
upon the head officers of the Knights of
Labor and ask them to revoke the musicians'
charter , and that then the Knights of Labor
would be reinstated In the Central Labor
union.
Resolutions were adopted that the Central
Labor union endorse the action of the Hoard
of Fire and Police Commissioners In Its en
deavor to remote the city Jail and police
court from Its present quarters to the city
hall ; that the voters In the trades unions ? be
requested to support the free colnigc of sil
ver ; that the Central Labor union appoint a
special committee to wait upon Hon. W. J.
Urjan and request him to deliver a lecture at
his earliest convenience upon the subject of
"Relation and Heuefits of Free Silver Toward
Labor and Capital , from a Nonpartlsan
Standpoint ; " that the Centtal Labor union
had heard with pleasure that the Transmls-
sisslppl congress had selected Omaha as the
proper place for an exposition similar to that
now being held at Atlanta , Ga. , and that a
copy of the resolutions , expressing thanks for
the honor conferred , be forwarded to the sec
retary of the TransmlMlselppi congress ,
signed by the president1 and secretary of the
local oiganlzatlon.

HABEAS CORPUS FOR COULTER
Hearing on the Writ Before Judge Scot *
This Morning.
DETERMINED ON APPLICATION YESTERDAY
Allegation ttint IH-fcmlnnt nt \o
TliniTrlril to ( lei ATIIIJ Sin-it
Uct nt llool < to Dcfc-ntt
, Illnixoir ,
Jerome Coulter , the ex-deputy city treas-
uier , charged with embezzlement , will ba
given a htarlng this morning at 9
o'clock In the criminal court on on applica
tion for n writ of habeas corpus. Ths matter
was brought up yesterday before Judge
Scott In chambers and after listening to the
arguments of Coulter's attorney he Issued
the writ and set the time of hearing.
This action Is the outcome of n considerable
effort on the part of Coulter's attorney , who
has been laboring ever sinceCoulter's bond
was fixed by Police Judge Ilcrka at $20,000.
Coulter has been unable to obtain the bond
and It has bcei continuously alleged that the
amount practically debars Coulter from pre
paring a defense. It Is alleged that It ls >
absolutely necessary for him to examine the
bctks In the city treasurer's olfico In ouler
to get ready for trial and that no one else
can do this preliminary work , as no one els ?
Is acquainted with the books. Coulter , It la
said , will have to go to the books , for the
books will not come to him In Jail.
In the petition In which application was
made for the writ It Is set out that Coulter
Is charged with embezzling In the neighbor
hood of $25,000. Ills ball , pending the pre
liminary hearing , was fixed at $20,000 , and It
Is held that this Is unreasonable and exces
sive , Inasmuch as Coulter possesses no prop
erty beyond $350 worth of household prop
erty. His wife Is unable to help him , as all
that the owns Is real estate valued at $ J,000 ,
on which thcie Is a mortgage of $1,000.
NO ATTEMPT TO ESCAPE.
As an argument that Coulter will make no
effort to escape punlshnrnt In case that he Is
released on smaller bonJs It Is alleged thai
ho has at no tlms attempted to get away
It Is admitted that ho lelt the city and went
to Chicago , St. Louis and Now Orleans , but
tl-al It was In order to obtain employment.
As an evidence of this It Is said that he at
all times kept his wife and Intimate friends
acqualnt-d with his whereabouts and that ho
never attempted to conceal his personal
Identity In those places. When the pollca
wore seeking to discover where ho was It la
alhged that they obtained the desired In
formation from his wife. Moreoxer It Is
alleged that he did not lea\e the city for
three weeks aft-r the defalcation In the
city treasmer's olllce was discovered.
Accompanjlng the petition Is a largo num
ber of affidavits supporting Coulter's asser
tions. Ono Is signed by hlms.'lf , In which ho
practically sets out the statement of facts
contained In the petition. As an evidence-
his Innocence of any Intention to leave the
city to avoid criminal prosecution , he says
that while In St. Louis he wrote to George
Krug of this city for a Iftler of recommenda
tion. . .An affidavit ft cm Krug confirms this
statement and what purports to be the origi
nal letter sent is also attached.
There are also affidavits from Fred Taylor ,
F. \ \ . Handhauer. William Scluvarlek. Wil
liam Alstadt , John Fead. T. C. Havens
Jamsa Gilbert , David Van Colt , R. C. Jordan
and Henry Knodell. These-men swear that
they saw Coulter about public placea In this
city for three weeks after the defalcation
had been discovered ; that Coulter had In
formed them that he Intended to go to other
cities In search of employment and that he
had never given any Intimation that he was
In any way comncted with the defal"-atian.
Coulters wife , Kate Coulter , also swears that
her husband had never Intimated that he hid
anything to do with the defalcation , that s-he
always knew of his whereabouta and that
she had Infonned the polie ? where hevas. .
VVUUL.IJ NOT RELEASE HIM.
Coulter's attorney made an attempt yester
day to obtain an order from Judge Scott
to permit Coulter to be released and set at
liberty In custody of a bailiff. Judge Scott
refuaed this request , chiefly on the ground
that ho had not the
power , as Coulter was
yet under the Jurisdiction of the police court.
The blame would bo place J entirely on his
ohouldcrs In case Coulter escaped , he said.
Ho therefore compromised by granting the
writ of habeas corpus anJ betting the date of
the hearing at the eaillest possible moment.
Two days ago an order was obtained from
Judga Scoit to permit the bringing up of a
motion before Judge Duffle to reduce Coul
ter's bond. At tlu t-amo time- the plan was
suggested to the court of allowing Coulter
to be releised and go in the custody of a
bailiff. Judge Uullle , however , refused the
application.
Coulter Feems to have confidence that he
will bo cleared on the charge against him.
Ilib attorney says that he has urged Coulter
to waive a preliminary hearing and to bring
hla case directly before the district court.
Coulter has refused to do this , saying that he
wished to avoid the expense , as ho had con
fidence that on the preliminary ho would
not b3 bound over to appear before the dis
trict court. The attorney doe- not share as
much confidence , however , as he is preparing
for the case when it comes up In the criminal
court.
It lei promised that there will be some sensa
tional developments on the trial. It is at
present Impossible to say Just how much
there la In this promise , IIH both Coulter and
lilfi attorney me dumb us to what this fensa-
tlon may be. They say , however , that It will
bo clearly shown that Coultei has been made
nothing but a scapegoat for the crimes of
others and that before his trial Is over some
thing In the shape of the dark regions will
" . "
be "a-poppln1.

SCHEDULE PRACTICALLY UNCHANGED
Trouble In GctthiK the Train ThrotmU
J\ol on ( lie Oterliuiil System

on KansiiN IlUUIuiii
After nil tlio tilk about tlio Union Pacific's
fast mall anil rumors about changes of time ,
ft new schedule will go Into effect on Sunday
and only flfte-cn minutes additional tlmo nlll
be allowed the train to make the tun between
Omalm and Ogdcn.
While the fast mall hag been having a
pretty tecky time of It , the trouble , It now
appears , has not been on account of the In
ability of the Union Pacific to make the
schedule time between Omaha and Ogden ,
but has come from a combination of circum
stances with which tue Overland system has
had but very little to do. The Northwestern
has been having some hard luck that has
made It Impossible to put the train Into
Omaha on time and thc"e ha\obeen n number
of causes for delay that could not have been
avoided. Had weather , winds that made It
Impossible for any train to do schedule duty ,
and a few untoward deals of that kind have
operated against the fast mall , but In face of
all these adverse circumstances the train , the
heaviest run on any western road , has made
tba trip to Ogden on time nearly over since
llio new schedule was Inaugurated. The
Union Pacific has taken the fast mall from
Omaha three hoiirs late : nd touched Ogden
\\lthln n few minutes of schedule time , and
lias made up from one to two hours quite fre
quently. The ofllclals of the operating depart
ment a crt that after the newness of the
schedule lias been worn off them will be no
d'lllculty In making the trip with compara
tive ease on the swift schedule now In force.
Under the new pchedtilo the fast mall will
Iea\o Omaha at 3-30 In the afternoon , live
minutes earlier thnn at present , and will allow
twenty mlnuteo' leeway between Omaha and
Cheyenne , but will pick up the twenty min
utes between Cheyenne and Ogden and will
arrive at the hitter point at 2 a. in. , but fifteen
minute1' later than the present schedule time.
The Important change made by the schedule
that gooa Into effect on Sunday will bo made
on the Kans.is division of the Union Pacific
and will result In giving the Union Pacific
the fast mall business that was formerly
handled by the Kansas City , St. Joseph Ai
Council Bluffs between Kansas City and Coun
cil Bluffs. Under the now card the Union
Pacific train on the Kansas division , which
formerly left Kantus Cit > at 9:30 : a. m. , will
now leave nt 10-40 a. m. , connecting with the
Missouri Pacific fast mail train , which leaves
St. Louis nt 3 n. m. and arrives at Kansas
City at 10:30. : This mall was formerly hauled
to Council muffs by the K. C , making
connncctlons with the Union Pacific fast mall
when that train left Omaha at 5.15. When
the new fast mall schedule went into effect a
couple of weeks ago It was thought that the
Missouri Pacific would put on a fast mail
that would land this mall at Portal In time
to catch the new Union Pacific fast mall
nest. Tie Missouri Pacific failed to make
the changes necessary to make the connection
at Portal and then the Union Pacific under
took to care for the St. Louis fast mall. The
new tral4i on the Kansas division of the
Union Pacific will leave Kansas City at 10:10 :
a. in. and will reach Cheyenne at 7:15 : a. in.
of the next day , making the run of 7J3 miles
In twenty-one hours and thirty-fixe minutes ,
In addition to doing the local work on the
Kansas division. It will bo a train of eight
or nlno cars and will be the fastest local
train in the west. It will mnkc connection at
Cheyenne with the Union Pacific westbound
fart mall.
