Pacific Eipr&ss Company Olerk Explains
Reason for Giving Ilia Testimony ,
ASSURED OF IMMUNITY FROM PROSECUTION

Andy Hunt wns subjected to a hot flro
from the defense , when his cross-examina
tion waa resumed In the Sudborough trial ,
us to the agreement entered Inlo between
him and Erastiis Young and ex-County At
torney Bnlilrlgu , by which ho was assured
of Immunity from prosecution.
Ho told of the persistency with which
Detective Chnpln of the 1'lnkerton agency
Muck to him. Ho nald he saw letters and
telegrams from Krastus Young , promising
him Immunity If ho would testify against
Ucchel and Stldborough , Young , ho said ,
had given htm personal assurance of such
immunity.
Lojvt summer 'while ho was at Arkansas
City , Ark. , Chnpln showed him telegrams
nnd letters from Young , ono of the tele-
rams being copied In September. A con
tract , the witness confessed , had been
entered into by him with Chapln , upon the
receipt o' ' ' the telegram from Young , In
which contract Hunt agreed to testify nnd
the 1'aclfle Express company agreed that ho
nhould not bo prosecuted.
Ho was asked If ho didn't turn over $10-
000 cash under the terms of this contract In
consideration of this Immunity , but an ob
jection to the question was sustained. The
court also ruled out a question as to
whether , while the contract provided for Im
munity from criminal prosecution , he should
( ilso bo released from liability to a civil suit
in cnso the shortage proved to bo over $10-
000.
000.It
It appears that Instead of Hunt having
turned over , as the basis of Its account , the
$4,500 funds of the "oinco bank" in 1887 ,
that amount had been increased to $7,3CS.ll ;
that Is , an Item to the credit of the shortage
amounting to $2,508.11 had been added to It.
Testimony on this was ruled out , but the
fact was got before the jury In the Interro
gations.
Inline linker mi 1111111 iiiily.
On the point of his promised Immunity
from criminal prosecution the court said It
would not make any difference whether the
county attorney promised it or not. Basing
Ills ruling upon the Whitney case , decided by
the supreme court , Judge Baker said there
could be no Immunity without the consent
of the presiding judge. The court rather In
timated that anything else would bo equiva
lent to compounding a felony. Baldrigo dif
fered with Judge liakcr on this.
Hunt could not toll just what the actual
shortage of the company was or what had
ibccomo of the stuib books , as he had de
stroyed many of the stub books and records.
He said he and Sudborough had made up
n legislative statement covering the fall of
1SOC and the winter nnd spring of ISO" . A
question was put to him to ascertain
whether this legislative account had bc"ii
left open until the close of the leglslathc
session , so that all the railroad companies
Interested In the express company could see
Just what the pro rata expense of each waste
to the end In view that each railroad com
pany pay Its particular pro ratn , but the
court did not allow It.
Sudborough's counsel was Inclined to ad-
liore to the immunity feature and make the
most of It. Hunt said in substance :
"Mr. Baldrigo told mo I would not bo
jno&eciited If I would testify satisfactorily.
1 would like to explain that what I meant
1 > y the word 'satisfactorily' on my prelimi
nary examination was that I should tell
the truth. I saw a telegram from Mr.
Young assuring mo of Immunity. When I
learned of Chapln'H authority. It was
through a telegram from Erastus Young In
September , 1SDS. I was arrested In March ,
380S. Chapln had n great many conversa
tions with me , urging mo to testify in these
cases. Air. Young told mo In person that I
would bo granted Immunity If I would tes
tify , and Mr. Haldrigo said ho would do all
ho could for mo. The case against mo was
afterward dismlffied. "
A'IINOII COIIICH < o tli < Front.
Ill the wlndup of Andy Hunt's testimony
Jio admitted that Morsman and Bechol knew
of the legislative account nnd that they were
the otllccrs of the company In actual control
of Its affairs Involved In the case.
W. E. Nusoii , who was bookkeeper before
Hunt , was called In the afVrnoon. Ho was
closely questioned by Mr. Baldrlgo anent n
conversation said to hnvo occurred between
hltn and Sudbol-ough , with John 0. Vlzznrcl ,
n Union Pacific detective , present , In a room
over a South Fifteenth street saloon in 18' ) . ' ! .
A great deal of ancient history was gone
over In this connection and about all the evi
dence obtained by the prosecution was an
terior to the three years' limit. It was all
admitted despite repeated objections from
the defense. The gist of the conversation
alluded to In Nnson's language was :
"SudboroiiKh said to mo , 'I believe the
company Is going to check up the accounts
nnd I want to get rid of the accounts
standing against mo on the books. I want
you to charge them elf some way. '
"I paid , 'I don't want to do that unless I
can have some voucher to show for It. '
"SiulboroiiKh said , 'Oo ahead and I'll pro
tect you and Bechol or I'll blow my head
' "
off'
Another conversation shortly afterward
was related , Nason stated that ho had shown
Sudborough n list of drafts for which there
had not been any vouchers and Siidborough
acknowledged that they were the Hems he
desired to hnvo "charged off some how. "
"Ho told mo to charge the whole amount
lip to the 'refund' account , " explained the
witness , "nnd I mild I wouldn't do It. Ho
ordered mo to go ahead and do so. "
There wore two Hats or statements. Ono
of them Nason Bald ho had directed his ns-
( tlHtnnt , Hunt , to charge on the classification
book to the dlHbursemont .column and an
entry was made accordingly- The amount
of this Item BO charged was $7.185.15 , It was
entered Minder ( Into of Juno 2C , 1893 , being
charged In the disbursement column.
An Investigation of the company's ac
counts was uiado liy it committee , consisting
of Crandall of Iho Union Pacific nnd repre
sentatives from the Missouri Pacific and an
other railroad. The committee failed to dis
cover this Hem of shortage. The witness

wns nskfd If Sudborough "celebrated" any
over this turn of affaire , but the court ruled
the question out.
Then a conversation said to have occurred
between Sudborough nnd Mr. Morsman In
the latler'd office In December , 1S ! > 7 , In the
presence of Auditor Hcchcl , Hunt nnd Nnson
was recalled. In the words of the witness :
"Mr. Mortmnn said to SudboroiiKh , 'Sud ,
you said you wcro short $1,000. Isn't It $ ! ! ,
000 or $24,000 ? '
"Mr. Morsmnn asked : 'What did you do
with the money ? ' "
"RudboroiiRh said : "Whisky. " '
"Mr. Moreman said : 'Sud , you must have
drunk n lot of whisky. ' "
"SudboroiiKh replied , 'It mnv bo. '
This was all of that conversation the wit
ness could remember Ho was permitted to
testify to nn Hem of shortage on ono of
the cash 'books ' amounting to $1I,1G2.84 , and
when the Item was received In evidence It
was shown to the Jury. This Item had been
pointed out to Morsmnn. However , Nason
subsequently confessed that ho did not think
Sudborough was present when It was pointed
out to Mnrsman and the court ruled out all
the testimony pertaining to It for that
reason.
to llofunil Account.
Witness stated that during the conversa
tion over the saloon Sudborough told him
the shortage was his own nnd Mr. Bcchcl's.
The list from which the entry of J7.1S5.15
had been made Xason said had been de
stroyed. But ho had the other list In his
possession and It was shown to the Jury.
That one ho had made up himself. Sud
borough had directed him to charge it nil
up to the "refund" account , ho said , and
ho explained that a proper "refund" account
of the company was an overcharge for which
there was n voucher. The prosecution did
not succeed well with this second list. It
contained two footings , ono of $7,033.81 nnd
the other of $1,175. Witness could not find
the corresponding entries upon his books
anywhere.
Turned over to the counsel for the defense
for cross-examination Nason admitted that
the company carried as high as $320,612.79
of unvoilchercd drafts nnd that it was the
custom to carry largo amounts. The only
basis he had for picking out the different
items was his own memorandum.
"This list you now have Is not the ono
relating to the $7,1S3 , Is H7" counsel In
quired.
"No , I have dlscvovered It is not the same
one , " witness answered.
In this thcro seemed to be some contra
diction between his statement and the testi
mony ho gave on the preliminary oxamlua-
tlou when ho said Itas the same list. He
was asked if he could pick out any particu
lar Item on the cash book. He said ho
could and with a grin ho pulled out a
little slip of paper from ono of his pockets.
Counsel for the defendant noticed this nnd
forced him Into nn admission that ho had
made the memorandum on the slip since
dinner in conjunction with Expert Wcttllug.
And as to his statement on his preliminary
examination that ho did not then remember
having had conversation with Sudborough
concerning the second list ho confessed that
his memory then was very poor nnd It had
since been "refreshed very much. " He said
also that It was a custom of the office to
carry over drafts for Sudborough's legisla
tive expenses without vouchers.
The witness "was caught somewhat In a
trap also on his story that Sudborough had
ordered him to charge off the Items of
shortage and ho had refused to do so.
"These drafts were not charged off in
accordance with Sudborough's instructions ,
wore they ? " Sudborough's attorney inter
rogated.
"No , they were not , " -\\as \ the response.
notwithstanding that the item of ? 7,1S3 had
been offered in evidence as n fictitious charge
on the classification book.
After this the record on the cash book
of various drafts which went to make up
this amount was brought out , and the wit
ness was mode to Identify the items singly.
There were several drafts charged against
Bechel in the fall of 1S90 , one of them for
? 2,200 , nnd some others making up over a
total of $1,500 more. The purpose of the
defense was to show that about the entire
amount had been made up of charges
against Bechel as far hack as that date.
Erastus Young has been subpoenaed by
the defense to produce the written contract
which guaranteed Andy Hunt Immunity
from prosecution.
KAII.S TO HECL'IIB HIS MAMJ.VMl'S.
1'rotoMtM by IlnrHoii . \ niiiHt Saloon
.lion fount for Nothing.
Judge Dickinson has denied the applica
tion of John Bocsen for a peremptory writ
of mandamus to compel the Board of Fire
and Police Commissioners to revoke the
liquor licenses granted to George W. Tlcr-
ney , Max Flothow , John Buck and Charles
Wcymuller.
He entered protests before the board and
then had the board mandnmused by Judge
Dickinson to reduce the evidence upon his
protests to writing , so that ho could have
a transcript for an appeal from the Issuance
of the licenses. The next step was to com
mence mandamus proceedings to compel the
cancelling of the licenses on the ground
that ho proposed taking a formal appeal.
The city resisted for the reason that Boesen
had not done anything In the carrying out
of his appeal threat and the revocation of
the licenses would deprive It of $ U,000 rev
enue on the mere threat of a party not In
terested. It also raised up as a bar to the
second mandamus suit a auporsedeas al
lowed by Judge Dickinson.
Judge DIckliiBOti bases his denial of Boo-
HOII'S second npllcntlon upon the fact that
this superscdcaH waa granted ; otherwise a
peremptory writ would have Issued , ho said.
As the order requiring the board to reduce
to writing the evidence taken on the pro
tests was set aside the whole matter stands
as though no order had been Issued.
Another point Is that the men to whom
the licenses had been granted had not been
made partloj to the suit , though directly
interested , The court takes the position that
if the mandamus asked , for should bo granted
they would have to close tholr places of
business until the supreme court had decided
the matter ; In case , however , the supreme
court should reverse the order , to keep the
places closed would oparato as n great hard
ship , and all the more especially us they had
not been made parties to the suit. But In
case the supreme court should affirm the
decision ordering the board to reduce the
evidence to writing , then Boesen would bo
entitled to a mandamus and the licenses
would bo revoked.

Sherman E. Day has filed his report as
special master In the Union Pacific fore
closure case in United Sates court. It Is
merely a brief recital of the steps that have
been taken in executing the sale and which
have been extensively noted by the press
from time to time. This Is the decree that
was granted December 1C , 1898 , under the
sinking fund mortgage nnd by which the
Union Pacific was dliected to pay within
twenty days the amount due under this In
strument. The special master reports that
no mojie-y was palil and ho then details the
steps by which the property was disposed of
at the -court house In Julesburg , Colo.
No Information has been received In the
government building from the newly ap
pointed surveyor of customs. H Is reported
that Cadet Taylor expects to assume charge
of the office about March 1C , but ho has
given no personal Intimation to that effect.
None of the present employes have been
given any Idea that they will bo retained.
It Is understood that Dr. M. 0. Ricketts has
been slated for the chief deputyship.
Judge Garland will come to Omaha March
21 to hear the motion for a new trial In the
cnso of Frank M. Dorsoy , who was con
victed of Illegal banking at the lost term
of court.
A case In which John F. Sullivan sues the
Omaha Packing company for ? 5,000 damages
for severe bruises to his foot caused by an
alleged defect In some hoisting tackle that
ho was operating as an employe of the com
pany has been filed In United States court.
The case was originally brought In the dis
trict court , but on the representation that
the defendant corporation was in Illinois a
transfer was authorized.
GUESSES ON THE EGG MARKET
DcnlerH Admit that They Can't Toll
n Tliliti- About Future
Commission men are having another lively
tussle with the egg market. Receipts have
been growing heavier right along for sev
eral days and as is usually the case with a
falling market buyers have been hanging
back waiting for the bottom to bo reached.
As a result stock is accumulating and deal
ers say they have about two days' receipts
on hand with not a very 'bright ' prospect for
getting rid of them at favorable prices. He-
ports received from other markets show
practically the same conditions to exist
elsewhere and consequently there Is no
chance to relieve the situation here by ship
ping1. On Thursday sales were slow at 12
cents per dozen at wholesale nnd many re
tailers wcro selling nt 12V4 cents.
In regard to the future , practically noth
ing can bo Bald" with any degree of cer
tainty , except that Indications are favorable
for a fluctuating market. Some dealers are
looking for a 10-cent market within a few
days , whllo others think It will not go much
lower than it Is now , while still others say
they don't know anything about it and have
given up trying to guess. Last year at this
tlmo eggs wore worth about 10 cents per
doon , 'but ' conditions are so entirely different
this year that nothing Is to bo gained by
comparisons. It has been a long time since
there has been mich nn uncertain nnd fluctu
ating market as hns been experienced this
season and ono .so unsatisfactory to both
commission men and shippers.
