' Tito suit ngalnnt the bondsmen of cx-Stnto
Treasurer Hartley , which wait Instituted by
< be Btato to recover Hartley's half-million
Hollar defalcation and a trial of which was
dldtnlflsed by the state a couple of weeks
ago , will bo.put on trial again the latter part
of this month If Attorney General Smyth
( can bring It about.
i Thursday the attorney general filed with
the clerk of Iho district court a motion , to
advance the case for trial on November 29.
3n Iho usual procedure" the case being dis
missed by the state , it would have been out
nt the bottom of Iho calendar , and , If It was
not reached before the end of the term , It
{ would bo put over until next term. As thu
docket Is full It would have probably met
this fate , but Attorney General Smyth main
tains that upon his demand a state case
can nt any time be od\anced over other
civil actions. He takes this view and cites
Section 1,113 of the code of civil procedure
Jn the 1897 stale statutes , which rcadu
partially as follows :
"Civil actions to which the state Is a
party shall , on motion of the counsel on be-
lialf of the state , have priority of trial over
other civil actions. "
Tito attorney general will maintain his
right to ask for an advancement of the case
on the grotindH thus furnished , hut there l
no doubt that the bondsmen will make a
vigorous fight ngnlr.Ht It. They will urge that
they have not had a sufficient time In which
* o prepare a defense. AH a matter of fact ,
Ihoy have been given n leeway of but five
days , the attorney general having determined
to press the case hard. .
Attorney General Smyth [ lied his now peti
tion In the COHO Immediately after the last
trial wns dlHinUncd by him. The defense
Jiad the legal Unto of thirty days In which
to fllo an anHwoY. Their Unto expires on
November 23. live dnjs before the time the
Attorney general asks to IMVO the trial net.
There Is no doubt thnt thu bondsmen will
eel up something In the atwwur that will call
for a reply front the state , nnd they will
therefore want time In which to consider
( his reply. Slnco the present term of the
district court ends the latter part of Decem
ber , It Is said that It Is somewhat question
able whether the trial will occur this term.
The cnso Is on Judgu Dickinson's docket this
tlmo.
The new petition which Attorney General
Smyth filed is the same as the amended peti
tion ho offered to file In the last trial ami
then withdrew. This sets up but one addi
tional allegation to those In the original
petition. Tlila offers the fact that the bonds
men signed waivers after January-3 , 1805 ,
allowing Hartley to secure ( additional
signatures to the bond after It had been re
fused by Governor Holcomb. By this means
itho state will endeavor to break down the
contention of the bondsmen that they are not
liable , since the bond was not legal because
It was not approved by Governor Holcomb on
the first day of Hartley's term. January 3 ,
1895 , as pro\tdcd by the statutes. It was on
this point that the attorney general was
forced to dismiss the case , the court holding
with the bondsmen. Since the waivers are
signed after January 5 1S93 , It Is said that
they indicate the bondsmen knew then
It the bond had not been legally signed
k tnd that the Bbndsmen thereby waived the
illegality.

A wfeck occurred In the lower switching
yarda ff the Union Pacific rallrmd early
ycstcnjay morning which resulted In the
eerloug Injury of tv > o employes and the de
struction of nearly $1,000 worth of property.
Those who were Injured were Engineer Frank
Arnold of the Burlington , who sustained a
broken , arm and collar bone and several
tad bruises , and Fireman Charles DeSombers ,
also of the llurllngton , whose nose was
Broken.
At the time stated , a Burlington switchIng -
Ing crpw on engine -No. 22 was engaged In
placing some oirs on the Hoagland lumber
yard tracks which lead off of the main tracks
near the foot of Harney street. In order to
use this track the engine was obliged to pass
over the Union Pacific tracks , which lead
from the lower to the upper .yards. The
Burlington engineer signaled to the man in
charge of the semaphore at the Intersection
for the right-of-way. Tills was given him and
the cars were pushed onto the sidetrack
The engine crossed -the Intersection again
with a half dozen cars be'ilml It. It was then
necessary to place a couple of card on a side
track near those 11 rat released and the train
backed up again. This was accomplished
eafely and the Burlington engineer , thinking
bo still had the rlgtit-of-way , started ahead
again. In the Interim , however , < tl sema
phore man had changed his guards for a
Union. Pacific train bound for the upper jards
In charge of Engineer John Nelson and Fire
man Dave Jenkins. The Union Pacific train
running at a high rata of speed crashe-d Into
the 'Burlington ' engine , which iiad Just
reached the Intersection of the two roads.
The 'Burlington engine WMS thrown over on
ono side and the Union Pacific engine , re-
ibaundlng from tbo shock , went to the other
sldo of tho'frack. The cab , cylinders and front
portion of the Burlington engine were demol
ished and Its occupants jammed In among the
splintered timbers of their machine.
When extricated from the wicck It was
found that Engineer Arnold had sustained
Injuries as heretofore Mated and that Fire
man DeSombers In addition to his broken
nose had sustained a number of bruises and
was badly bitaken up. The Union Pacific men
escaped Vlttiout Injury , but their engine ten
der , together with the Jackets of the strain
dome and cylinders , were badly demolished ,
Engineer Arnold was taken to his home ,
where the company surgeon attended him.
DeBombera went to his lodging house at Gib.
eon station. Ills Injuries are not serious.
The wrecking crown of both roads wefc
Immediately ordered to the scene of the acci
dent and succeeded In clearing Hie tracks
by yesterday noon. It was found that the
tracks had been lorn up for u space o ! sixty
feet In both dlrcctlom. The Union Pacific
engine wns pulled out of the way and was
taken to the ahopa In the afterntAm. The
Durllngtcn engine was luiule.l to the Gibson
shops. A couple of freight cars were de
railed , but were soon replaced ,

OnltT A * I tie.
John O. Yelser has been completely knocked
out In the first lound of his bout with the
Nebraska Telephone company. Ho even failed
jcstcrday to get any satisfaction out of
the contempt of court proceedings which he
Instituted bpforo Judge Scott. The upshot of
the matter 'Is that Yclscr will have to pay
$5 a month for a telephone. If he roilly wants
ono , nt least until the supreme court passes
upon the case. He declares , how over , that
ultimately ho will win.
file contempt proceedings were brought
Thuisday afternoon In the morning the
telephone company secured a supersedeas
from the supreme court and also an order
upon the clctk of the district court , com
manding Jilm to recall the writ of marUamus
grunted by Judge Scott. These Instruments
wera not on ( lie In this county at noon and ,
.herefore , Yelser secured an order from Judge
Scott , commanding the telephone companj
officials to appear In court and show cause
\\hy they should not bo held for contempt of
court In refusing to obey the writ of manda
mus. Yelser bad made numerous demands
for a telephone , but he had been put off on
various pretexts. A deputy sheriff hunted all
he afternoon for the officers to secure service
upon them , but they could not be found.
They kept out of the way In order that the
order from the ( supreme court could arrive
'rom Lincoln. When this was placed on file
they appeared In evidence and were"ready to
go Into court yesterday.
In view of the attitude awumed by the
supreme court , Judge Soott refused to hold
thu company for contempt. He ild , how
ever , that the supreme court was plainly
violating the law by Interfering with him.
It had no right to review a case In which
he statutes gave him a right to use his dis
cretion , unless ho violated and abuspd this
discretion , which he said he had not done.
( la declared that the way the supreme court
.runsactcd law business was beyond his com
prehension.
"I am getting tired qf this , " said Judge
Scott. "They tlo mo down hand and foot.
I have had enough writs of prohibition , writs
mandamus I should man-dam-iid
of , say , - -
served on me that would fill a book. I would
not hold my office again for $50,000 a year. "

Last Monday night Pat Desmond , an ex-

tics with James Monlhan , a Union Pacific
switchman. Dcsmoadi was knocked do\\n by
Monlhan , and as he attempted to regain his
feet was felled to the pavement again , when
Monlhan followed up the ) attack by stabbing
him In the cheek with a knife. Some friends
of Desmond who were lounging In. a cigar
store near Fifteenth and Harney streets
rushed to the scene , and after calling a sur
geon the wounded man was taken to the
Presbyterian hospital.
An attempt to keep the matter quiet was
made by friends of both men , but the facts
leaked out yesterday and a warrant has
been Issued for Monlhan's arrest. Jt Is
thought that bo has left the city. It re
quired twenty-two stitches to clo = e Desmond'o
wound , but at last accounts he was reported
on the road to recovery.

Steam Tilrni-d on nt ( he ( Hit
ria ill.
A vigorous nnd fairly successful attempt
was made Thursday to heat the city Jail.
The- source of warmth WES the old holler
uhlch exists In a somewhat unstable condi
tion beneath the barn In. the rear of the
building. The city council had at first de
cided to heat the establishment with stoves ,
but the building was not provided with flues
nnd the quettlon of smoke consumption
proved a difficulty.
Thursday afternoon Councllmcn Durkloy ,
Lobcck and Stunt of the committee on public
property and buildings visited the jail in
company with lloller Inspector Charles Unltt.
The party held a session over the steam-heat-
Ing equipment. Mr. Unitt examined the pu'ss
of the machine , crawled in.to . Its rust-covered
Interior and pronounced It safe enough to
fire up. Accordingly some Jail hands were
set to work nnd extracted a wagon lead of
dirt from the tubing and boiler. Charles
Rrlnk , a veteran crglnecr who has had chaig
of numerous largo buildings In the city , was
found to be sufficiently stout of heart to un
dertake the regulation of the apparatus and
the fire was started. About midnight a grate ,
ful warmth began to circulate In the corrl
dors of the Jail and the shivering prisoner
who had been pacing his cell stretched him
self again on his pallet. Before morning the
rooms had become partially comfortable and
the turnkey , who had been guarding .against

breathed more easy.
If the present tj pcrlment proceeds without
incident the steam apparatus will prove more
satisfactory as well as much less expensive
than the steve system. Five new flues have
been Inserted in the bailer , and It is thought
that the occurrence of erie blowing out last
year will not bo repeated. The proprietor of
the Colonado hctel , ad.'olnlhg , at first objotoj
to the arrangement ort tlio ground that the
water used In the boiler found Its way
through his meter , but ho concluded to waive
this when It occurred to him that the system
was all one , and that In1 order to heat the
jail the city would bo obliged to send steam
through every pipe In hls'hotel ,

There seems to bo some colllslcm of au
thority between the Advisor } ' Board and the
city council relative to the city jail matter.
The Advisory Board has taken the matter
up and Instructed Secretary Coburn to ad
vertise for propositions to furnish the city
with a JalL Meanwhile the commltee on
public property and buildings of the city
council is making arrangements to heat the
present quarters and Is also actively workIng -
Ing on the question of a new location.
Councilman Stunt has a number of propo
sitions to furnish jail quarters. He will
nubmit them to the council next Tuesday
night. The one which he regards as most
dcslrablo Is that of the Fred Krug Brewing
company to repair and furnish Its old plant
at Tenth and Jackson streets and rent It to
the city for $200 per mcath. Stuht and
other councllmen , however , are moro In
clined to favor a plan that will effect a
permanent settlement of the difficulty by
the acquirement of the Murray property south
of the court house. They are looking up
the matter to ascertain' whether this can. be
done , and If the necessary arrangements
can bo made they will favor an arrangement
between tbo city and county authorities to
acquire the property and erect a building
that will permanently answer the purposes
of both corporations.

The Farnam street paving Is being pushed
ns rapidly as the capacity of the asphalt
plant will allow and If good weather con *
tlnucs It Is expected tbit the entire south
sldo of the street will be completed by the
middle of next week. The asphalt binder on
this side was completed yesterday and the
contractor will begin putting1 In the slag and
hinder on the north side today.
The paving contracts with J. B. Smith thnt
were awarded the other day cannot bo signed
until November ! ) , as the thirty days allowed
to property owners to designate material will
not expire until November 8. It Is very
doubtful whether the contractor will be ublo
to do much on these districts this year , but
the contracts will at least be executed and
all preliminaries arranged so the streets can
bo paved the first thing In the spring.
