' * Routine Proceeding" . (
LINCOLN , Jan. 4. ( Special. ) When the
eupremo court met this morning the room
was crowded with attorneys , most of them
having biiBlnofi ? before the court , but a few-
being drawn there because this sitting wilt
close Judge Post's work on the bench , and
cither curiosity as to the proceedings or
genuine reg-inl for the retiring Judge
prompted them to bo present. There was
also a general feeling that the decision. In
the Hartley case would bo handed down dur
ing tbo day , and a large number of attorney
and politicians loitered around the * state
liouse all day waiting for the ncwc. The
court , however , adhered to the practice that
waa adopted some time ago of not giving
out any particular decision until the whole
number for the sitting were ready. For the
year past under this practice the opinions
have not been made publicuntil on the
afternoon of the second day of the sitting.
It Is now generally believed that the Hartley
opinion will bo handed down some time about
noon tomorrow. No tip has been given out
M to what the opinion will be.
HUMORS OF THE COURT.
In a Johnson county case this forenoon
the attorney for the defendant In. error asked
that the appeal bo dismissed because the
plaintiff In error had not filed briefs until
eeveral months after the required time.
Judge Post Inquired as to when the belated
briefs had been filed , and was Informed that
they had now been on file for over two years ,
end that this was the first tlmo the defend
ant's attorney had objected to the tlmo of
filing. The ruling1 was made by Judge Post
tint It was now too late to question the
record or to go back to Investigate as to
when the plaintiff ehould have had his briefs
on file , and thereupon required the defend
ant's attorney to at once file his answering
brief. In another case , being an appeal In a
slate case , the attorney for the defendant
asked for time to file briefs. The presiding
judge asked : "Is your client In the peni
tentiary ? "
"Yes , jour honor , " replied the attorney.
"Well , I gucfs a man who Is In the peni
tentiary ought to be allowed a reasonable
time , " said Judge Post , and there was a
general laugh In the court room.
During the afternoon the court announced
to the attorneys that the applications to file
Kiilts In the Douglas county ) bond cases had
been granted , and petitions will at once be
filed In both cases , being In the name of
the state of Nebraska ex rel Douglas county.
W. C. VanDervoort , formerly chief clerk of
the mail service at Omaha and now assistant
general superintendent of malls , was here
today to settle a dispute that had arisen be
tween the poatmastcr and the parties who
hold the contract for hauling the mall to and
from the diots. It is understood that the
question In Issue wtis < is to whether the con
tractor was under the orders of the postmas
ter or of the general supotlntendent. The
contmctor had refused to recognize the au
thority of the postmaster to issue orders In
regard to the conveyance of the malls.
J. W. Talmago , treasurer of Fllltnore
county , was at the state house today making
lil/i annual settlement , bring the first one of
the county treasurers to rcoort. An abstract
waa received by the auditor today from J. F.
Piper , treasurer of Burt county , who expects
to como down to make settlement tomorrow.
The state" treasurer has made a call for
general fund warrants 35,852 to 30,051 In
clusive , to como In January 12. The amount
of Ifoo call U $27.000.
BLOODHOUNDS DETECT THIEVES.
Short work was made In capturing two of
the three men who held up and robbed Dr.
Hitchcock , the East Lincoln druggist , last
night. The Beatrice bloodhounds were sent
for and when put upon the troll went direct
to the Fedawa residence In the east part of
the city , where Jay Fedawa and a man giv
ing hla name as J. W. Rico were captured
and taken to jail. The third man has not
been located. The general belief Is that the
right parties have been captured , as young
Fedawa has the reputation of being a bard
citizen and has been before the police court
a dozen tlrncs already. Rico Is a stranger
In the city. The quick capture of the men
has established the efficiency of the dogs for
tracking thieves andi will no doubt have the
effect of frightening the other thieves who
have been plying their trade so freely this
Winter.
The city scales have been closed , pending
on Investigation as to their reliability. The
coal dealers have been weighing over these
scales and It has been discovered that they
are out of balance so as to make a 10 per
cent gain for the dealers on every purchase
of coal. A close Investigation Is to bo made.

GRAND ISLAND , Neb. , Jan. 4. ( Spe

uty H. L. Harrison last night arrested
a young man named Drews , Just before the
latter was to take a train for California , tlio
charge being that of uhootlng .Miss Hunsen
nt her homo near Wood Iltver last Friday
evening.
Sheriff Dean had received a telephone
message from Jttstlcu Westcott about supper
tlmo to tlio effect that two young men ,
brothers , by the name of Drews , bid been
taken to this city by their father and that
It wtfl the supposition that tliey were about
to clear the country. They were suspected
of being Implicated In the shooting of the
youiiff woman on New Year's eve and the
elicrlft was Instructed to arrest them at onco.
Mr , Dean accompanied by Mr. Harrison ,
went to the Vienna , where the father and
one of the boys were eating supper. The
totter was at once placed under arrest and
It was found that the other brother had not
como with the father.
The prUoner was this morning taken to
Wood Illvcr to have a prcllm'nary hearing ,
The story of the shooting makes It appear
that It was entirely an accident. The two
boys were shooting the old year out.
When they arrived at the Haneen borne they
approached the door and the weapon was
discharged Just as the young woman opoaed
the tloor. The muzzle cf the guo was so
close to her face that notwithstanding the
shell was a blank the force of the explosion
toro away her nose , ono eye and the greater
jiart of ono sldo of the lace.
The two phyoiclana at Wood Illver were
at race summoned and dressed the Injuries.

cnts to accept their action ns conclusive In
accordance with the precedent of two years-
ago than to supplement It by n formal
nomination of their own. No caucus will ,
there-fore , be held.
The announcement that the republican
joint senatorial caucus that had keen called
for tomorrow night would not be held caused
as much stir to the result of the caucuses
last Saturday night and more than the or
ganization of the legislature by the com
bine yesterday. The opponents of Senator
Hanna Insisted that It was a white ileg ,
that the Hanna men were afraid to show
their hands again , and that It was a confes
sion that the senator did not have sufficient
votes and had ascertained that ho could not
get them In a joint caucus. "The combine"
Insisted that this action showed that the re
sult In joint caucus would bo the Earno as
oq the separate caucuses.
At the Hanna headquarters the announce
ment was receives ! with apparent satisfac
tion. Messrs. Dick , Nash , Grosvenor , Brigham -
ham and all of those close to the senator
approved of the action of the republican
members of the legislature In. withdrawing
the caucus call ami simply standing on the
plank for Hanna In the last republican state
platform. The outside claim of the Han E.I
men la that several republican members who
voted for Mason for speaker have today
pledged themselves to Hanna and that they
do not want "the combine , " with which
they have been asaoclated , to know of their
action In the senatorial contort until the
balloting for senator begins in the legis
lature ono week hence.
It Is evident that the Hanna men will .not
compromise on Secretary Sherman , Assistant
Secretary Day or any other one , and that
they will not show either their strength or
their weakness until the balloting begtas
next week. There will be dally and nlp.btly
conferences , but no more caucuses on either
oljo , as the contest Is so intense and so close
that neither slilc will show ltt > hands.
The senate \\CR In session but a short time
during the afternoou and no committees were
announced. The senators were soon engaged
with 'tho representatives ! n discussing the
Hanna ccntc t. Senator Burke continued to
vote anl co-operato with ti'ie democrats. AH
the senators on the republican side were
glod their Joint caucus for 'tomorrow nigh ?
had been declared off , and the democratic
senators insisted that It was a confession of
weakness or lack of confidence In the Hanna
headquarters. The republloin senators said
Forakcr waa elected senator two years ago en
the endorsement of the Zanesvlllo state con
vention and without any caucuses , and it w.s
prepared to elect Senator Hanaa CQ ' .bo en
dorsement of the Toledo state convention.
CHANGE'S ' WITH THE TIDE.
Late tcnlght the Hanna managers lost the
'two doubtful members that they had gained
toc'ay , so that there Is now no material
cbaugo from that of yesterday , when the
house stood fifty-six to lift-three agah-at
H'irna. ' This would give tl'e senator only
rc-vcn'.y votes on joint ballot , or three less
than enough votes to elect. i
In connection with the char go of Repre
sentative Griffith back 'to the antl-Haana
camp there are most scandalously sensational
reports In circulation. 'Mr. ' Griffith lias been
on both sides several timed , and has so
pledged himself In writing.
In those dtspHches yesterday was M ac
count of the Hanna workers spending Sun
day night with Representative Griffith , and
cf him sending at 3 o'clock In the moinlng
for his wife to come from the Great South
ern hotel to uho Nell house 'to ' jcrln him la a
conference with the Hanna men. At 8 o'clock
that morning the Kurtz men saw Mrs. Grif
fith and the all-night work of the Hanna
men was undone just before her husband
went to the slate house on 'Monday moinlng
to qualify as speaker pro 'tern ' with the oUr.er
candidates of "tho combine. "
After the legislature was organized IMr.
Griffith hod ouother night of conference on
both sides of the senatorial case , and this
morning he gave tOe Hanna men a written
pledge over his own name that ho would
vote for the senator. Later in the day he
was seen by 'the opponents of Senator Hanna ,
and tonight he gave out the following as his
latest proclamation on his position ;
To the Public It Is duo to the public nnd
to myself that I malso n statement of my
position on the senatorial matter.
While It Is true that the convention which
nominated me passed a resolution request
ing me to support Senator Hanna , and while
I at various times during the campaign nnd
since , declared my Intention to follow that
request , and even promised a dozen or more
of my constituents In Mr. Hanna's head
quarters on 'Monday of this week that I
would do so , I have , however , since learning
the particulars of the indlgnltlc-s heaped
upon my wife Monday morning- , reached the
conviction that I would bo untrue to my
manhood should E cast my vote for a man
'who ' either uses or employs euch methods ,
and shall resent the Indignities and insults
heaped upon myself and friends , and also do
a service Tor my state and country , by voting
ing for a republican other than Mr. Hanna
for United States senator.
Notwithstanding the threats that have
been made to mo that I cannot return and
live In Union county If I do not vote for
'Mr. ' Hanna , It is jny hope and belief that the
good people who have honored me with their
confidence , and whom I love and honor , will
uphold mo In this determination that can
not under any circumstances now be
changed. J , E. GRIFFITH.
HANNAi DOUBTS ITS SOURCE.
Wh&n a copy of the statement purporting
to come from Representative Griffith was
shown to Senator Hanna this evening he
said : "I do not bellevo Mr. Griffith ever
made this statement , because It Is not true.
It Is represented to mo that ho Is an honor
able man , and therefore I shall not believe ,
without some further evidence , that he ever
made or authorized any such statement. "
Notwithstanding Senator Hanna regards it
as untrue that Representative' Griffith him
self published this statement , yet It Is known
that the document Is In Griffith's handwrit
ing , whether ho prepared it himself or not.
The last letter of Griffith has caused not
only a sensation , but the most bitter feeling ,
and tbo worst of charges on the part of rival
workers.

In regard to Mr. Grljth'B statement In

I wish to say :
"When the nemriapers' reported on Sunday

A failure to complctte the organization of the

The biggest fight among itTio democrats of

The results of experiments lately carried
on at the brick works near Newburg , on the
Hudson , In substituting fuel oil for wood
or coal In the operation , of burning are re
ported as being very satisfactory. The fuel
oil In question the product left after crude
petroleum hua been refined has been used
for some time , past as fuel for engines and
furnace ? , but Its adaptability for the pecu
liar necessities Involved in the operation of
burning pottery or bricks is of quite recent
development. A forced draught of air Is
mentioned : is one. of the Important factors
In carrying out this system , as by such an
arrangement the heat from , the burner can
be directed nt a uniform temperature to

explanation of the details of this system
shows , in brief , that the oil runs from n

and feeds directly Into a burner in the arch
In the Interior and from an air reservoir

A tale of the various adventures and mis
deeds of a ChlrlcahiM outlaw who has long
been known throughout the southwest'as the
most savage of all the Apache warriors la
related by Frederick Remington In Harper's
Magazine. He says , In part :
"Massal then became a problem to eucces
slvo chiefs of scouts , a bugbear to the reser
vation Indians and a terror to Arizona. If
a man was killed or a woman missed the
Indians came galloping and the scouta lay
on his trail. If he met n woman In the de
nies ho stretched her dead If ehe did not
please his errant fancy. Ho took pot-shots
at the men plowing In ! their little fields and
knocked the Mexican bull drivers on the
head as they plodded through the blinding
dust of the Globe roid. Ho oven sat llko a
vulture on the rim rock and signaled the
Indians to come out and ; talk. When two
Indians thua accosted did go out , they found
themselves looking down Massal's 50-calltcr ,
and were tempted to do his bidding. He
scot one In .for sugar and coltce , holding the
brother , for such he happened to be , ns a
hostage till the sugar and coffee came. Then
ho told them that ho was going behind n
rock to Ho down , cautioning them not to
move for an hour. That was an unnecessary
bluff , for they did not wink no eye till sun
down. Later than this ho otolo a girl In
broid daylight In the face of a. San Carlos
camp and dragged her up the rocko. Here
ho was attacked by fifteen or twenty bucks ,
whom he stood oft until darkness. When
they reached his lair In the morn'ag there
lay the dead girl , but Mas al was gone.
"I never saw Massal 'but ' once and then
It was only a piece of his G string flickering
In the brush. Wo had followed his trail
halt the night and just at daylight , as we
ascended a steep part of the mountalaa. I
caught sight of a pony's head looking over ,
a bush. Wo advanced rapidly , only to nnd
the horse grunting from a stab wound in
the belly , and the llttlo camp scattered
around about him. The shirt tall flickering
In the brush was all of Massal. We followed
en , but he had gone down a steep bluff. We
went down , too , thus exposing ourselves to
draw life lire so that wo could locate him ,
but he was not tempted.
"Tho lain Lieutenant Clark had much Hie
same view of this mountain outlaw and since
those days two young men of the Seventh
cavalry , Rico and Averill , have on sepirato
occasions crawled on bin camp at the break
of day , only to sec Massal go out or sight
In the brush llko a blue quail.
"Lieutenant Averill , after a forced march
of eighty-six miles , reached a hostile camp
near morning , after climbing his detachment ,
since mldnlg'Jt , up the almost inaccessible
rocks. In hopes of surprising the camp. Ho
divided his force Into three parts and tried ,
as well as possible , to close every avenue of
escape , but aa the camp -was on a hlghj
rocky hill at the junction of tour deep cau-
. At day-
ycos , this was found impracticable.
ilcht the savages came out together , running
like deer and making for the canyons. The
eoldlers fired killing a buck and accidentally
wounded a squaw , but Massal simply dis
appeared.
"That's the story of Massal. It Is not as
Ions as his trail , " cald the chief of scouts.
LIFE WITH A BRONCO IAPACHE.
"In the spring a missing girl rode Into
Fort Apache on n horse , which was loaded
clown with buckskins and other Indian finery.
I .took . her Into my office , for she was stj
tired that she could hardly stand up , whllo
she was haggard nnd worn to the last de
gree. When she had sufficiently recovered
she told me her story. She said she was up
In the walnut tree when an Indian shot her
mother , and coming up , forced her to go with
him. Ho trailed and picked up the mare ,
bound her on its back and drove It along.
The colt whinnied , whereupon ho cut its
throat. After killing and cooking the mare
he gave her something to cat , tied her up
by the feet , nnd standing over her told her
that ho was getting to bo an old man , was
tired of making hlls own flrcs and wanted a
woman. If ehe was n good girl ho would
not kill her , but would treat her well and
always have venison hanging up. Ho con
tinued and said that he was going away fern
n few hours and would conic back nnd kill
her If she trle-d to undo the cords ; but she
fell asleep whllo ho was talking. After day
light ho returned , untied her , made her
climb on hiis back and thus tarried her for
a long distance. Occasionally ho made her
alight where the ground was hard , telling
her If she made any 'sign' ho would kill her ,
which made her careful of her steps.
"After some miles of this blinding of the
trail they came upon a white horse that was
tied to a tree. They mounted double nnd
rode all day ns fast as he could lash the
pony , until , near nightfall , it fell from ex
haustion , whereupon ho killed It and cooked
eomo of the carcass. The bronco Indian took
himself oft for a couplq of hours , and when
ho returned brought another horse , which
they mounted nnd sped onward through the
moonlight nil night long. On that morning
they were In the high mountains , the poor
pony suffering the earno fate as the others.
LIVED AS MAN AND WIFE.
"They stayed hero two days , ho tying her
up 'whenever ' ho went hunting , she being
"
so exhausted after the long flight that "sho
lay comatose In her bonds. From thence
they Journeyed south slowly , keeping to the
high mountain/ ? , and tonly once did ho speak ,
when' ' ho told her that a certain mountain
pass was the homo oB the Chlrlcahuns. From
the girl's account she must have gone far
Eouti into the Sierra Madre of Old Mexico ,
though , or course she was long since lest.
"Ho killed game easily , she tanned the
hides , and they lived as man and wife. Day
by day they threaded their way through
( the deep canyons and over the Blue Moun
tain ranges. By this tlmo ho had become
fond oJ the White Mountain girl nnd told
her that ho was Massal , a Chircahua war
rior , that ho had been arrested after the
Geronlmo war and sent east on the railroad
over two years since , but had escaped one
night from the train and had made his way
alone back to his native deserts. Since then
it is known that an Indian did turni up miss
ing , but It was a big band of prisoners and
some births hadi occurred , which made the ]
checking off como straight. Howas not
missed at the time. From what the girl
at last ho came to the lands of the Mescalero
f
Apaches , where ho stayed for some time. He
s tj ho must have got oft es t of Kansas
City ami traveled south nnd thetX went , till
was over a year making thU ? Journey and
( old the girl that no human t.vo ever MW
him once In that time. This I * all he told
the girl Natastalo and ehe was afraid to ask
him more. Ileyond thcso mere facts It Is
ttlll n midnight pronl of n human coyote
through a settled country for 1.200 miles' , ths
hardihood of the undertaking being equaled
only by the Instinct which took him homo.
"Once only whllo the ) girl was with him
illil they see sign of other Indians , and
stialghtway Massal turned away lib wild
nature shunning even tho. society of bis
kind. " /
THE HEART OF A HRONCO APACHE.
"At times 'Massal's heart was bad.1 nnd
once he sat brooding for n whole day , finally
telling her that ho was going Into a bad
country to kill Mexicans , that women were
n burden on a warrior , nnd that ho had
made up his mind to kill her. All through
her narrative he seemed at time1' to be over
come with this bloodthlrst , which took the
form of a homicidal melancholia. . She
begged so hard for her life that ho relented ;
BO ho left her In the wild tangle of moutv
tains while he raided on the Mexican set
tlcmcnts. Ho came back with horses nnd
powder'and lead. This last was In Winches
tcr bullets , which ho melted up and recast
Into ,60-eallber balls made In moulds of
cactus sticks. Ho did not tell how many
murders ho had committed during these
raids , but doubtlces many.
"They lived tliat winter through In the
Sierras , and In the spring started north ,
crossing the railroad twice , which meant
the Guaymas and the Southern Pacific. They
sat all ono day on a high mountain and
watched the ( rains of cars go by ; ibut 'his
heart got bad' tit the sight of them , and
again ho concluded to kill the girl. Again
she begged off , anil 'they ' continued up the
range of the Mogollons. Ho was unhappy
In his mind during all this journey , eaylng
men were scarce up here , that ho must go
back to Mexico nnd kill romcono.
"Ho was tired of the woman , nnd did not
want her to go iback with him , so , after
sitting all day on a rock whllo she besought
him , the old wolf told her to go homo In
peace. Hut the girl was lost , &n < ) told him
that either the Mexicans or Americans would
kill her If she departed from him ; eo hla
mood softened , and telling her to como on ,
hobegan the homeward Journey. They
passed through a small American town In
the mlddlo of the night ho having prevl
ously taken oft Uio Indian rawhide shoes
from the ponies. They crossed the Glla near
the Nnu Taw mountains. Hero ho stele 'two '
fresh horact ) , ami loading ono with all the
buckskins , ho put her on and headed her
down the Eagle itrall to Black river. She
now knew where she was , but was nearly
dying from the exhaustion of his fly-by-nlght
expeditions. Ho halted to tell her to , Hell
the .white . officer that she was a pretty good
girl , better than San Carlos woman , and
that ho would como again and got another. '
Ho struck her horse and was gone. "

One of the season's novelties In trimming
cloth gowns Is the machine stitching in pat
terns like the old-fashioned quilting.
A novelty In veiling is black spotted net
lined with white net , slightly tinted with
pink , which makes It very becoming.
Dclts of all kinds and conditions are worn ,
but ono of the prettiest fancies Is the belt
of finely tucked black satta or colored vel
vet.
Braid nnd tailor-button trimmings on
street costumes will be even moro fashion
able In the coming season than they have
been this winter.
The new- muff of velvet is very large , and
irjjdo with frilled ends and lined with batln
on silk in some bright color. The latest fad
Is to make the sides dissimilar.
A very stylish finish for a cloth costume
Is one-band of fur broadtail around the bot-l
torn , and a collar band covered with the
fur. Velvet and lace complete your decora
tion , but no mcro fur.
One of the latest things In hats Is merely
a largo bow of. black velvet , with a full
aigrette In the center. It la moro llko the
Alsatian bans of old than anything else , and
very becoming to most faces. A ) jeweled or
nament , with comb effect , may replace the
aigrette.
The latest shape of fur capes Is extremely
s'jort , reaching scarcely to the elbow. Cloth
and velvet capes are also made of this
length , and are frequently fashioned of three
graduated flounces. A favorite trimming Is
a band ofcrosscut velvet or cloth , stitched
down In the center.
Fancy vests are made of tiny ruffies of
satin rlb-bon trimmed with small gold cord ,
put on in lattice effect. SomctlmeH the rib
bon rullles alternate with rufllcs of fine luce
and the effect Is airy ami beautiful.
Wide lattice-work ibralds put on 'tho ' skirt
and ibodlco In crossing squares just mow
rank chief among popular trimmings on
gowns of broadcloth , ladles' cloth and other
all-wool fabrics. Smaller anl less showy

with accumulation of gas , saitr risings and
