BECHEL COMPLETES HIS TALE
Monotonous Orogs-Eiamination Besulto in
Confusion of Witness.
EFFORTS TO TANGLE HIS TESTIMONY
Defendant Shown the Effect of the
Strain He IIa Undergone ,
bat III * Main Evidence
Stand * Vnihaken.
The cross-examination of W. F. Bechel ,
who Is charged with embezzlement from .
the Pacific Express company , was completed
Just before court adjourned last night , but
there' Is still no Indication that the argu
ments will bo reached today. It Is not
known whether any additional witnesses
will bo put on by the defense and the
county attorney says he does not know how
much time he will occupy In rebuttal. It
Is expected that the evidence will , be fin
ished eome time 'today ' , but at that It will
require at least two days more to get the
case to he jury.
Mr. Bechel was on the stand all day yes
terday and the state made a vigorous and
persistent effort to tangle htm up. The
strain of the last few weeks was apparent
In his nervous condition and at several
points he became plainly confused. He did
not contradict himself on any Important
points , but the county attorney succeeded In
mixing him up to some degree on details of
' *
tbo'varlous transactions to which he had
testified.
' During the afternoon a negative light was
thrown on eome of the inside history of the
case before it became a matter of public
knowledge. This was reflected by a ques
tion by tbo county attorney in which he
was asked If It was not a fact that last
December President Morsman of the ex
press company bad stated In his private of
fice. to Mr. Nason ami In the presence of
'Bechel and Andrew Hunt that Surtborough
has confessed to a shortage and bad de
clared that "Bechel and Andy" got some
of the money. The witness emphatically de
nied that he had heard such a remark.
( or the Detalli.
Mr. Bechel was questioned closely yester
day morning as to whether vouchers had
originally been Inserted In the expense en
velopes , and by whom. He said that he
believed most of them bad contained either
a voucher or a memorandum. Sometimes
the vouchers were made by himself. He
could not remember any specific Instances
Tke same ground was covered half a dozen
time * with no material change in the re
sult * . ,
Continuing , the state brought out the
statement that , as his superior officer , the
witness was authorized to demand from
Hunt all or any part of the money In the
office bank at any time , and that , while
Hunt was the custodian of the bank , the
amount originally turned Into the bank was
charged to Bechel on the books of the
company. The witness stated that he never
Investigated the condition of the bank.
In the afternoon the witness was asked to
again Identify the salary checks In cou-
ucctlon with the expense envelopes drawn ,
by the corresponding months. In moat l
cases the combined amounts exceeded his i
salary. He accounted for the envelopes by
saying that In these cases the envelopes
probably represented amounts advanced by
Hunt to use In the mine.
Then the history of the mining deal was i

agnln resurrected and the witness repeated
the story of the organization of the com
pany and the disposal of one-third of the
stock to Hunt. Ho was questioned in re
gard to the amounts that had been ex
pended lu development at various times and
the amounts that Hunt had advanced to
buy blocks of stock held by other parties.
Half the afternoon was occupied along this
line and then Mr. Baldrlga returned to
the J1.S04.25 draft and asked Mr. Bechel
If ho bad at anytime received $800 at one
time from Mr. Hunt. To this he returned
a positive negative and then the county
attorney sprung a waybill for $800 sent
from W. P. B. to George F. Gardner , with
some effort at dramatic effect The witness
declared with emphasis that the waybill
represented money sent by Hunt , using his
name because be was president of the com
pany.
Ilnck to the Mining Deal.
The county attorney then took another
whirl at Bechel's version of the meeting
in the office of tbo express company after
which Hunt had destroyed the credit letter
stubs. He tried to induca the witness to
admit that ho had gone there for the purpose -
pose of destroying the records , but the wit
ness Insisted on his denial. He was also
asked whether , when President Moraman
called Hunt Into his private office to dis
cuss the shortage , he did not grasp-Hunt
by the coat tails and urge him to protect
him and whether on the following Sunday
ho had asked Hunt If he had surely de
stroyed the credit letter stubs. In each
case he entered a positive denial. The
same answer was returned to a number of
additional queries in regard to incriminat
ing remarks alleged to have been made
by himself. These Involved a conversation
alleged to have occurred between the wit
ness and an express office clerk at the
Elks club in which he had declared that
If Hunt was game nothing could be done
with any of them. Bechel said that he re
membered talking about Hunt's arrest at
the club , but be could not remember what
was paid.
|
The ro-dlrcct examination did not occupy
five minutes nnd then William Mitchell ,
secretary of the Snowden Mining company ,
testified that Bechel had never contributed
a dollar towards the development of that
enterprise.

Owing to the 'inability of Attorney Gen
eral Smyth to be on band at the time set
for the trial of the suit of the state against
the Omaha National bank to recover the
{ 201,000 said to have been drawn out of the
bank by Treasurer Hartley to pay the Chemi
cal National bank warrant , Judge Baker had
to set the case for the 22d. Mr. Smyth was
engaged In a case going on In Judge Dickin
son's court.
A reply was filed during the day by the
state to the Omaha National bank's answer.
It sets up that the $180,000 warrant held
by the Chemical National bank -was Illegal
and void and that the state never re
ceived any of the proceeds from the sale
of the warrant.
Date for Klemtead-Connolly Hearing
When the Klerstead-Connolly election con

counsel , that It would be risky to attempt
to try the matter on the last day of the De
cember term and without allowing for a
full thirty days from the date the summons
In the case was served. As the law recog
nizes no parts of days and It would be as
sumed that the summons was served at any
time during November 19 , te begin the case
on December 19 would not , be making al
lowance for a full thirty days , as Is required
by the statute. Under the circumstances
Judge Baxter set the case for January 4 at

Immediately after court opened yesterday
morning Judge Slabaugh took occasion to reply -
ply briefly to statements recently made by a |
Judge of the district court in reference to the
remainder of the bench. Judge Slabaugh
read what he had to eay from manuscript
and then took up the docket without further j
comment. He said : I
I have a matter that I wish to speak of
publicly this morning and but briefly. Judge
Scott , I understand. In his decision the other
day charged myself and others of his as
sociate Judges with corruption on the bench.
I cannot pass such chargea over without
notice. I have stood his cursing nnd abuse
for a long time because I believe that men
know him and pay no heed to what he pays
except to bo amused , and because the po
sition I hold , that of a Judge of the court ,
should be above any toe , and God forlild
that especially from the bench I shall abuse
any one , even my worst calumniator , al
though under the protection such ofllce
would glvo a Judge. Such Is not the object
of the office and such Is not the history of
those who have occupied the bench and who
have added 'dignity and force to Its judg
ments and decrees , and whenever it is ilono
the tendency has been to lower Its dignity
and detract from Its force and usefulness
and to make It a laughing-stock In the eyes
of the people. Whate\cr my future may be ,
wherever ray lot Is cast , while-on the bench
I shall know no vengeance , vituperation or
villainy. Hut when I from the bench nm
charged with wrong doing and corruption ,
as Judge , which the bae mallgner knows Is
false , If ho is sane , the same man who n few
years ago was whining that he was abused ,
anil which charges are being spread through
out the press of the land , as I learned last
night , then I must speak and that pub l ,
licly. Beware of the man who Is always cryIng - '
Ing wrong and fraud In others , and who I
needs his own commendation to give him !
self character before the people.
IIU Career In Oiuuhn.
I came hero a few years ago a poor man
and have hnd my struggle with poverty and
adversity and hard work. And many a day
as a matter of necessity I have eaten but
ono meal , nil of this that I might live nn
honorable life and bo an honor to my pro
fession : and am today a poor man , cnrlKiv-
orlug to rear a little family to bo an honor
to me and to be respected In the com
munity In which I live , and a good name Is
all the wealth I expect to have and will
have j unless destroyed by tioino man who
docs i not know the value of u oed name.
Slnco on the bench I havu done the best
I knew , trying to be fnlr to every one. try
ing to wrong no one. 1 have refrained from
sensational talk and from abuse of those
over whom I have authority , and who
could not raise their hand or vol9o to take
their own part , because I call such acts
cowardice , and not courage.
I may have erred In Judgment , but not
In honesty of Intention , and to be traduced
and slandered as corrupt simply because I
signed an order protecting the exposition
from the hands of one who was bent on
ItH failure , preventing the disgrace that
would follow his unchecked acts ; aiding
our city , and our state and our county , and
on the urgent request of poor mun who bad
their little earnnc8 in stock In the exposi
tion , and who feared this man's acts would
not only prevent their sharing a dividend ,
but cause an assessment to bo taxed on
them ; nnd on the request of poor men who
were earning a livelihood at the exposi
tion because of this I nm corrupt. If I
such nets arc corrupt and If the part I
[
took In aiding In the realization of the
dividend which Is being placed back in the
pockets of these men who gave their money
( except such as IB held on Judgment ren
dered by this same man ) , is corrupt , then
I should bo called corrupt.
Challenged IllH Accnnari.
I want to say this in conclusion. I want
every man to let it be known , In public ,
wherein In my public Ufa as an officer or In
my private life as a citizen he can show
that I ever Intentionally wronged any man
or received a cent unlawfully , privately or
lu the strict performance of my official
duties.
Can ho who charges me with corruption
say ' aa much ? -
I shall make no charges against any ono.
I shall let each man's conscience be his own
accuser. ,
Gentlemen , with the charges mode against
me i , a man who has tried to do his duty , I
cannot ' sit quietly by and let them pass , nnj
bo a man. And I want to add , I shall fine
no one for contempt who writes dev n what
I say , because I am not ashamed of It.

on a Change In the Fore-

The members of the Omaha Real Estate
exchange met at the Commercial club yester
day neon and took up the consideration of
the foreclosure laws of the state. All of
the members agreed that there Is a neces
sity for a change and tbo general sentiment
was that the plan of the laws upon this
matter Is acceptable. The Iowa laws pro
vide against appraisers , do away with de
ficiency Judgments nnd provide for ono year
In which to redeem the property sold uudcr :
foreclosure.
As chairman . L. Selby presented the
followInG report , which was adopted with
out discussion :
Your committee on revision of foreclosure
laws beg to report that the committee , as a
whole , have not considered the matter. In
dividually , I am strongly Inclined to favor
recommending that our legislature ndapt the
loua law. This law has been tried , apparently -
ently to the satisfaction of both debtor and
creditor , nnd when It IB known that Nebraska ;
has adopted the foreclosure law of a Rtate
which has thp good reputation that Iowa has [
It Is my opinion that Nebrnska'n standing in i
this regard will bo In the best possible con I
dition.
I have consulted with two active mcmbcro-
elect of the legislature from this county , and
they both unhesitatingly declared In favor of
adopting the Iowa law , ono of them not
wanting to risk the slightest amendment.
Another meeting of the exchange will beheld

club , to which the Dougfas county members
of the legislature have been Invited , that
