,1 13 IS MAYOR BEYOND THE LAW Kellj'a Oonmel Brings This Claim to Be cure Eiecutire'i EileMo. IMPEACHMENT SAID TO BE ONLY REMEDY Sonfh Omnlin Mayor Srcka Rsrnpc from ChnrRCfi of Hrllierr Ilia Ofllce in Ileyontl the I'nle of Slntutea. If Mayor Allen It. Kelly of Botith Omaha can find an escape from a trial for bribery through a loopholo in tho law tho criminal suit brought by tho stnto nenlnst lilra beforo Judgo Vlnaouhalor will not reach hearing. When tho caao was called at yes tcrday'a cession of court Kelly's attorneys at onco entered a demurrer that la practi cally a pica In abatement. They Informed tho court they will ask for a dismissal on tho ground that Kelly, In tho capacity of mayor, cannot bo tried under the stato laws on tho chargo of bribery. Tho statutes wcro read to show that only ministerial or judicial officials may bo subjected to a trial for such offenses. Tho contention was made that tho offlco of mnyor Is oxocutlvc, decisions of tho United dtatcs supremo court being quoted to estab lish the distinction between tho terms "ex ecutive" and "ministerial" or "Judicial." Kelly holds an oxccutlvo office, tho at torneys argued, nnd therefore ho Is not under tho Jurisdiction of tho statutes. Ho can bo Impeached and removed, If ho Is proved guilty of charges on which tho prosecution rests, but tho present com plaint Is Hold to bo defective- for tho reasons mentioned, and tho caso based on It ought to bo dismissed. Tho stato's theory Is that tho odlco of mayor properly comes under tho head of ministerial and judicial both. Tho chargo against Kelly Is that ho ro eclved $2,C0O from eight browing associa tions tho Omnha Iircwlng association, J. fichlltr. Ilrowlng company, W. J. hemp Drcwlng company, Krug Ilrowlng company, Metz Ilrowlng company, South Omaha Ilrow lng company, l'abst Ilrowlng company and Anhcuser-Dusch Drawing company as n feo for nssurlng tho prlvllego of selling liquor during tho hours when salo Is for bidden by tho statutes election day, Sun day and between midnight nnd 5 o'clock in tho morning. Ao Loophole for Kelly. At tho conclusion of a protracted argu ment by tho attorneys Judgo Vlnsonhnlcr overruled tho demurrer. Iu his opinion tho tltlo of tho statuto Is broader than tho rubjoct, or, In other words, cxecutlvo of ficers nro Included under tho terms min isterial and Judicial, and so this point of law Is settled as far ns tho present cobo is concerncu ana tho hear ne will co on Hut It will not bo resumed Immediately, ns IhA n ...... , . . - m.;o lur mu ucionso asKcu lor a continuation when tho decision of tho court wns tnado known, pleading that they need lima to look up other dotalls. Ac quiescing In tho request. Juden Vinson. haler postponed tho hearing until December Ji at iu o'clock. Thoro Is a second caso against Mayor Kelly on n similar charge. This was sot for December 18. On that date Mr. Kelly will bo called upon to nnswer to tho spo clflo charge of having accepted cortaln sums ot money from Thor Joreeson. Mvmn Sherman and others paid In consideration oi nis promising them lmmunitv frnm nn. llco Intorfcronco In conducting gambling uuioro court ncjjourned tho attorneys asked permission to tako tho testimony of (leorgo Krug, u witness who will bo nb sent from tho city on tho dato of tho hearing. Krug's testimony was a denial in 1010 ot Knowledge rccardlnir thn nav. ment tho browing company Is said to havo mado to Kolly. Mr. Krug said that ho had novcr paid any sum to Kelly, nor had ho "er promiscu to pay him any sum. Ho added that ho has oxcluslvo supervision of tho finances of tho comnnnv nml h n3 far aa ho knows tho South Omaha mayor uui-i uecn pam a penny by anybody wiiii mo concern. ritAix co.Miucrou is justified.

A committee of tho Woman's club has been appointed to urgo tho Incoming lcg- lsiaturo to pass a law that will give to widows an absolute tltlo to real property left by their husbands, Instead of only tho lire interest thoy enjoy under tho statuto now in force. In 1889, when Judgo Ben S. Baker was a member of tho legislature, ho Introduced nnd secured tho cassago of a bill providing that ono-holf of tho real estato of a man dying Intestate should pass absolutely to hl3 widow, and ono-half to his father nnd mother In cases whore thero wero no children, and that ono-thlrd of tho cstnto should pass absolutely to tho widow in cases whero thcro woro children to be cared for. Tho Baker law was doclarcd unconstitutional on tho technical nround that Its tltlo was Insufficient, bringing back mio rorco tno old law providing that the widow should havo only a life Interest in the real property of which her husband died solzcd. Tho members of the Woman's club hn- llove that a widow should receive an ab solute tltlo to her Just sharo of the realty ion Dy nor nuBLand and bo free to dispose of It as she may dcslro. With this opinion firmly planted thoy aro going after the members of tho legislature to securo a practical re-enactment of tho Baker law.
