' flays in the atato penitentiary at Lincoln , at
hard labor , with solitary conflnernnt on each
anniversary of the 1ay on which he murdered
- . Idward McKenna , July 2O 1593.
When court opened In the criminal branch
ycaterday , Judge Baker directed that
, McGinn bo brought In for sentence. There
wore few persons In the court room , aside
# from the usual number of nttorney. Con-
I spicuous among the few spectators were
' 4 three members of the jury which found
3 ' McGinn guilty of murder In the second do-
grec.
grec.When
When McGlnn was brought Into court lie
- Wa3 made to atand before the bar. In reply
to the usual question of whether ho had anything -
thing to say why sentence shouldnot ho pro-
. flounced , McGinn returned a simple negative.
-
- Judge Ilaker then addressed hIin.elf to the
prisoner , speaking substantially as follows :
. "flarney McGInn , oil March 18 , last , a jury
, found you giiity of murder in the second
: tkgree. You now state that you have notti-
' log to EY why sentence should not be asrd
upon you. In your trial you were defended
by the ablest counsel In the atate ; you and
. they must admit. that you wore given a fair
trial and were allowed every opportunity to
prove your innocence. If the jury had found
, you guilty of murder in the first degree , It
- : : would have determined the punishment which
1 should be Inflicted upon you and I would
' therchy have been relieved of a most Unpleasant -
{ pleasant duty.
"There Is no doubt 11n my mind that a
crime was committed ; the only question is ,
In what. spirit was it done. I cannot help
I but believe that the Impulse which prompted
, the commissloii of the crlmo was not one
which would constitute murder In the sec-
a owl degree. When Edward McKenna stepped
off that car wIth a number of packages in
lls hands containing provisions which lie
was carrying home to hlo wIfe an4 little
ones , little (11(1 he think that , Instead of
I going to a happy home , lie was going to
I his grave. I have no doubt but that you
stood there at that corner with murder In
your heart , waiting to kill Edward Mc-
, Kenna. When he crossed the street to the
. . other side , a side which was out of his
I ordinary line of travel , and which would
take him away' from his home , I believe he
did so because ho wanted to avoid you.
There is no doubt In my mind that McKonaa
heard the cocking of your revolver about
the time you both passed the middle of the
etreet. lie was afraid to flee from you
for fear you would ilioot at him. You followed -
lowed him across the street for the purpose
of killing him.
EXCUSES FOIL T1II JURY.
,
a ! can see that the jury recognized the
fact that you are an old and a very Irrlta-
1)10 man. I can also see that the jury took
Into consideration that Mc1Cnna's state-
znent to you , that 'they ha got your hide , '
. ( granting that your testimony ors that point
- , was true ) , excited you in a measure.
"You can thank your stars that the jury
returned the verdict it did , and you can
thank your counsel for defending you In
the able manner In which they conducted the
. , case , for under less able direction you would
t not have escaped so easily.
, "I will read to you the fuli sentence of
the court , so that you may iiee just what
' Is in store for you. The sentence is as follows -
lows :
'The defendant , having been heretofore
. convlctcd-Qf : murder inthe"second degree ,
l wai this day broughtinto court In custody
' of the eheriff and 1nforrne by the court of
y the verdict of the jury , and inquired of If he
' .4 . had anything to say why judgment of the
court should not be pronounced against him ,
J and howlng no good and 6ufllcient cause
1 why judgment should not be pronounced ; it
1 is therefore adjudged by the court that the
said defendant , Barney McGInn , bs Im-
4 prisoncd and confined in. the penitentiary of
i ' the state of Nebraska and kept at hard labor
for the period of and during the lifo of iho
' . said defendant , Barney McGinn , and also be
- kept In solitary confinement in the cells of
, the anid penitentiary on Jiy 29 of each and
every year of the sentence , and that lie pay
the corts of this prosecution , for whch ! cxc-
; butioii Is awarded.
c I trthst that on each anniversary of the
day on which you committed ths crime you
'will be repentant and sorrowful , and viII
' consider the sorrowing woman you have
WilOWed and the orphaned children whom
you have deprived of a protector. "
During the scathing arraignment of the
court , McQinn stood unmoved. lie betrayed
no emotion when sentence was pronounced ,
. and walked steadily out of the court room to
enter upon the sentence which removes him
from the rubiic gaze for the balance of his

.AiViMeIIl'fl I ,
Henry liolln was in the criminal branch of
tim district court yesterday for arraign-
ment. Before he was arraigned his attorneys -
neys filed a motion asking for ten ( lays' further -
thor time to consider the Information filed
by the county attorney , In support of this
motion the attorneys read affidavits of them-
'elves and flolin , eetting forth that the information -
formation had been served upoil the defendant -
ant at a late hour ThuriJay evening and the
attoineys had not seen it until Friday
morning , cni'equently , they alleged they had
not had a reasonable time in which to consider -
sider the charges made In the information.
In order to properly consider It they informed -
formed the court that. it would be necc.sary
for them to examine the records in the omco
of the city treasurer regarding the charges
made against the defendant , and such an
examination wouid require several days.
The court promptly overruled the motion ,
informing the attorney. that they had had
two months since the preliminary examination -
tion iii the police court in which to investigate -
gate the chargei' , which were the mme as
these contained in the complaint filed in , ! ilo
police court.
A motion to quash the information was
then filed , The grounds on which this nio.-
tion was based were the same as those con-
talnell in a similar motion filed la.t Thursday
morning in relation to a former Information ,
The prncipal ground was a constitutional
question , in that the point was raised that
the county attorney had no authority to arraign -
raign a person on anything except an indictment -
mont returned by a grand jury.
The motion to quash wa overruled arid a
plea in abatement was then filed in which a
number of reasons were urged why the caa
ohould not. proceed. The reasons were sub-
itantially 'the anio as the points raised in
the motion to quash.
. The county attorney aaked for a little time
C ) which to consider the plea in abatement
and file his written objections and court was
adjourned until 2 o'clock to give him that
opportunity.
When court convened at 2 o'clock the
cot'nty attorney flied a demurrer to the
plea in abatement and a brief argument was
made by him , The court announced that the
demurrer would be taken under advisement
until Monday , or perhaps Tuesday , morning.
Tile matter was of too much importance to
be decided off-hand , and , while the court
was anxious to have the case disposed of
with due SpOli. the judge said lie did not
want to jeopardize the interests of the defendant -
fendant ,
The case was therefore postponed until
Monday at 9:30 : o'clock.

asking that , a divorce be granted hini on the.
groUnd of cruelty ; The decree flhics , thaL tIm
evidence did not support the charge' made
against Werley , but dtd support the chargn
of vruelty and a'wards a divorce to the
husband and also the custody of the one

There are a few politicians in the Third
ward who declare that they will dig up a
hatchet bigger than a guilictine this fall
when It. comes to electing a Jiroatch dde-
gation from the ward. They say that some
of the Third ward lenders got together and
concluded that it was about time They hind
some portion of the municipal patronage , and
as a result a committee wa9 appointed to
wait on I3roatch and request that a Third
ward man be appointed as suporiiitcndent
of the market llaCe , under the provisions of
the ordinance which was passed at the last
meeting of the council. They suceeded in
obtaining an audience with the mayor , and
stated their case.
To make the matter more binding , it was
intimated that if the request was granted
they would see that the delegation from
the ward to the eLate convention would not
be unfavorable to his gubernatorial candidacy ,
Then the mayor is mid to have replied that
their promises did not cut any ice with
him. " 1 have always had to buy the Third
ward , and I expect to do it this time , " he
added , and Witl ? that consolation the corn-
rnitteo was dismissed. And they say that
Uroatchi will hear something drop when the
Third ward is heard from ,

At the regular meeting of the floard of

County Attorney Baidrigo preeented a re
quect for permission to employ a detective
in tue helm case. lie represented that there
was some valuable evidence in existence
which cauht not bo reached thiroughi the ordinary -
dinary channels. The request was , granted
after the amount to be expended was him.
Ited to $50.
lii this connection Stenberg explained that
tue subject had already been discussed by
the finance committee. Ito stated that he
violated no confidence in raying that the
board was simply being held up. ThiCro war'
a certain individual who claimed to have
certain important information nhii he dc-
mantled $50 as the price. lie thought it
\vai , more than the information va.s worth ,
but in order that it might not appear that
the board hail left anything undone that
mtght insure a successful Prosecution of
the case lie favored spending the money.
Among the bills allowed were those of
John \V. Croft anc1 Fred ihoyC for acting
as the ( lentil watch for George Morgan. They
aggregated $157 ,
Charles F' . Gilbert wanted ndmiss'lon to
the Soldiere' and Sailors' home. The chairman -
man was authorizeil to sign his apphtca-
tion.
Klerstead submitted a verbal report on
the Stryker incident , lie said that the Jew-
dry had all been turned over by Stryker
aiid properly accounted for. Several members
objected to a verbal report and the corn-
rnitteo will make a written report at the
next meeting.
The bondsmen of Adam Snyder asked permission -
mission to have an expert bxamino Snyder's
booku and for three month's time in vhiichi
to make the examination , Tue matter was
referred to the finance committee.
A resolution by Stenberg provided that
the services , Qf T. W. llotchklss as clerk
at the county coal yard should be dispensed
with. Jenkins objected and the resolution
was referred.
Notice wan served on the .board that at
a recent meeting of the eastern committee
of the Western I'aescnger association it had
been decided that no more reiucel rates
should be given for charity purposes. This
took effect April 1 , anti applies to all trans.

lv. A. Foster , justice of the peace in thi
city , was tried on complaint preferred by
David Van Etten , an attorney , embracing
charges ot malfeasance , misfeasance , gross
partiality and other offenses. The case was
taken up at the morning session of the
Board of County Commisoloners , but nothing -
ing was ( lone except to spar for wind , bothi
shies consuming the time by arguments ,
chargee and countercharges. At the after.
noon session the matter was taken up and
the evidence heard. This showed that Van
Etten had had a case before Justice Foster
in which Charlen Luce , the owner of a
house at 2712 Farnam street , had corn-
menced ejectment proceedings agginat Ehiza-
beth Martin , who , tt was ahleged , had cc-
cupied the house for over two yeare without -
out payingrent or svitiout having any righter
or title to the property. Foster was charged
with having refuSed to allow a juryto be
called in the case , withoutgeod reasons ; and
with having gross partiahIt. iphisruUng
In the case . - - ' . ' -
Van Etten and Miss Rebecca .Iartin were
the only witneaea on tim p rt of the prdse-
cutton and Jur'tice Foster was called to the
stand to give evidence on the part of tim
defense. Van Etten persisted in offering oh.
jeetions to all questions put to Foster unti'
the commlmionc.rs became disgusted. Ho
was warned to dosiet , but continued , uutli
Jenkins moved that the caae be eliemissed ,
urging as a reason that Van Etten had
failed to substantiate a single charge. Kier-
stead and Hector supported Jenkine , while
Willianu , insisted that both sides should be
given all the chance they wanted in order
to get at all the facts. A vote was taken
and thia motion te fiusmiss was carried ,
