TALKS OF WRECKING TRAINS
Principal Witness in the Leo Trial nt
York on the Stand.
TELLS A VERY SENSATIONAL STORY
Minute Di-lnllN of ( InAllowoil 1'lnl to

YOKK , Neb. , Dec. 0. ( Spcclnl. ) The I.co
trial opened this morning with Moiaplay
etlll on the stand. Ho continued his story
nliout the plot to wreck the train. He tolil
how I.co approached him upon the suhject
of ditching the trnln hy intimating that ho
( Messplay ) hail been engaged In zomo of the
burglaries that had been nnnoyliiR York poo-
jilo about that time. Mcsspiay denied this.
McBiplay aya that varloua places of meet-
1ns were arranged by Leo , but that lie did
not fulfill all the engagements. In one con
versation MfMplny asked Lee what would
be done If thu man ( Hlsscll ) failed to Ret
killed In the wreck. I.co replied that they
would use n ctono to knock him In the head.
"Why not use guns ? " queried Mtssplay.
"Ouns talk , and besides , train wrecks do
not make bullet holes , " was the answer
purported to have been Riven.
"On the evening of October G , " said Mesa-
play , "Lee , In Hpcaklng of the person ho In
tended to put away , told me- that 'the In
dividual Is dead easy to feet. HO'B a sure
mark. I tried to Ret him once before , but
a limb caught my arm. ' "
This Is a portion of Mcsaplay's testimony
that Is considered very Important In reference -
once to the present case , and one which the
attorneys are battling over warmly.
McEsplay saj-H that the train was to be
wrecked by placing spikes In the Joints of
the rails at a curve which would elevate
the engine so that It would be ditched , lie
tolls about I.co going with him to the tracks
of the St. Joe & Orand Island railroad and
then showing how the derailing was to bo
done.
MUCH DVlDHNCi : INTHODUCBD ,
The cross-examination which followed was
rigid. The defense made a strong effort to
tangle the witness , and succeeded In getting
Mrasplay'n memory somewhat mixed. An
attempt will bo made by the defense to In
validate Mcfisplay's testimony and to show
that ho la a clever raacal. and that his mo-
tlvo In exposing the alleged plot ID n purely
mercenary one. Mcssplay has not homo a
very savory reputation here , although he
has never bren proven guilty of any crime.
II'o ' Is of a roving disposition and has trav
eled the country over. There Is a suspicion
among some that the Interesting story told
by Mrssplay Is but a fabrication gotten up
by 111 MI for hla own benefit.
Tlio prorwciitlon continued to Introduce evi
dence the greater part of the afternoon.
Messplav wai again called to the witness
box. Ho Identified a letter which lie received
from I.rcasking Frank to meet him at n
certain time about mine crjyon work. It
was t'Igned "I.ce. " Frank Messplay claims
that ho lus no knowledge of any crayon
work.
William Purcell testified that he saw Lee
nnd Mcssplay on the St. Joe railroad track
evidently engaged'In Homethlng on the track.
Frank Ilrown nnd William Harrlfj told that
they saw I.eo roaming around the Durllngton
and the Rlkhorn tracks , on October 15. east
of the city , near the crossing of the two
roads. They regarded his actions na sus
picious. II. King , mayor of York , tcstlfle'd
to finding a hatchet at the spot where His-
nell was ambushed. The hatchet was Identi
fied no belonging to Judge Hennott , whcae
law olllce was located In the same building
and on the store with I.co's gallery , before
the lattcr's removal last summer. Dennett
says Leo often borrowed the hatchet. IIo
1ms mlatcd the hatchet since August C.
The dufcnao then took charge. The flmt
wltncfr-a was Mtas Joslo Hanson. She Is
I.ce's slslcr-ln-law , and was employed In
Leo's gallery. She testified that she never
saw the hatchet In question , and that Leo
had a hatchet of h's ' own. Forrest Smith wan
juit In the box. He worked for Leo at the
time of the assault. He overheard Leo
sMak | about Indemnity for death or Injury
Incurred In a hold-up , when Leo and George
were discussing the taking out of a policy.
Smith said he was living with Leo on the
night of September 15 the evening when
HkMell was assaulted. Ho stated that he
and Leo wont from Ills homo to the gallery
nt 7:15 : that evening. They worked at the
gallery for an hour , then Leo went to tln
Uryan headquarters. Ho returned and
worked half an hour. Smith and he drove
In a buggy to LCO'H house. Leo went In the
house , while Smith put awqy the horse. I.eo
was In the house the rest of the evening.
Smith asserts. The testimony of Smith ap
parently strengthens Lee'tf case a good deal.
The counsel for Leo also Introduced evidence
tending to show that Mcfsplay was a scoun
drel. Lee will go on the stand tomorrow.
The attendance at the trial U the largest
over seen In the court room , and a r.otlcublo
feature Is that a large part of It Is inado up
of York's lending society women.

The Iowa Sheriffs' association opened u
two-days' session today and the first thing
announced was that certain politicians had
tried to pack the meeting In order to pam
a resolution In favor of II. T. St. John of
Osage for United States marshal for the
Northern district of Iowa , for which a hoi
light Is on. The opponents of St. John say
they will defeat the resolution If It comes
up. The attendance today was fifty-two am'
tomorrow It will reach eighty-five. The as
sociation will tomorrow name a strong1 com
mittee to lay before the legislature a bill
to amend the fee laws. The present Jaw
compels sheriffs to pay expenses of serving
papers In civil suits and some of the sheriffs
declare that the olllce la not worth holding
under this rule. They want the parties to

My brethren Of the prc s need not bi > rc-
mludid of the often painful duties which
come to the fearless editor. They must
ever remember that "faithful nn the

ers so well know that
Forgiveness to the Injurttl docs belong ,

I-Vw , very few , Indeed , outside of the edi
torial piincturn , over Irani how the surges
of ambition , in nil Its varied and fantastic
phases from the noblest to tlio nuxinpst ,
assail and often vex lotirnalistlc duties. The
public knows not of the many gifted men
who must thus at timed IIP saved from
themselves , and nn editorial retrospect of
half a century presents a sad record of
the newspaper work of making bricks with
out straw. Justly excepting the compara
tively few public men who tower ever medi
ocrity In public place , journalism gives the
position and fashions the fame of most of
them. It Is not done arbitrarily nor from
choice an public and political necessities
arc often imraiiiouiit with Journalists , as
with others , In awarding public honors ; but
with all Its exactions and rosponslhllltli'S ,
which are over magnified by the greater
opportunities for usefulness , there Is no
calling that brings richer compensation for
fidelity to duty. The consciousness that
each day the editor whoso renders are
numbered by hundreds of thousands , may
greatly aid In making the world better than
It was In the pissing ycstordav , Is a con
stant Inspiration to the best efforts , and It
Is especially gratifying that even In tlio
many and at times Impassioned conflicts
of Journalistic dispute the rugged and
sharp-angled walls which divide us are
over so beautiful and fragrant with the
flowers of good fellowship as is Impres
sively taught hy this assembly.
Thus charged with tlio highest of civil
trusts In th.ii most enlightened government
of the earth , the editor must bo honored
or dishonored hero by the measure of his
fidelity to his exceptional duties , and must
bo so judged In the hereafter , when the
narrow pathway , of life that divides past
and future 'eternities has been traversed.
Wo come when Million , we know not
whence ; wu HO when hidden , wo know not
whither , but each and all have duties to
themselves. Jo tlvolr homes , to their ooiTTitry
and to the 'common brotherhood of man.
which when performed with the faithful
ness that luimau Infirmities will permit
must greatly brighten the brief and often
fretful Journey from the cradle to the grave.
Friends. In thN evening twilight of my
journalistic -work , so sweetly mellowed by
the smiling , facff , young and old. about

the gratitude that can perish only when
the gathering shadows shall have settled
Into the night that comes to purple the
better morn.

100 voters were naturalised at Iho request
of the democratle county eontr.il commit
tee , willo ! TBO wei imlurjllrcd nt the re
quest of the republican committee. The con-
tostatitu hold that wbon n voter obtained
his papers through olihor of HIP commit
tees It was a case of bribery. ConM'qucnlly
as the republicans * < .vttred. the naturalization
of np.irly 700 IIKTU voters than the pspocrats ,
aTonllng to their theory , the difference
p'.ould bo deducted from the majorities of
the republican cjtullitntpg.
1-Jven at that , however , the contestants arc
having a good de.il of trouble to prove their
ca. e. So far they have not been able to
show that the ropubllo.in tviunly committee
paid the fcos for tlioHt- naturalization piper * .

taken out their pnporn. Lewis told him to I
take them lo the ulllco of the clerk of the

Nothing was said In regard to the intymont
of the fees , nor wan anything paid to the
wltno-'s for his icrvlcos. Logas.1 swore tint
ho took up prchably twenty-live men to got
their pjpe-iv.1 and that they paid for them
themselvcu.
The contestants put olght naturalized clt-
Izenii from South Omaha on the stand lo
prove that they had received lliolr papers as
nn Inducement to vote the republican ticket.
This testimony proved to bo a sort of boom
erang , as two of the witnesses stated that
they had not voted at all , two had voted for
McICInloy and the remaining four had voted
the popocratle ticket. The contest will be
continued for an Indefinite period.
