STATE RESTS IN FLOTH CASE
DitrtiTei Swear that Floth Told Them He
Kicked Fee.
STATE'S ATTORNEY SPRINGS SURPRISE
Calls Mlclmrl Mollnrr, One of the
Co-Orfenilnnts to Witness
Htiinil In Trll of the
Alteration.
Tho beat wltnrsscs for tho state In the
Floth murder trial before Judgo Jlaknr were
roaerved until tho last. This Is why It hap
pened that tho particular blow which, It Is
contonded, was tho cause of Edward Fee's
death on the night of August 22, was not
mentioned until a few minutes beforo tho
ntato rested. Up to this time there bad
bceit 11 missing link In tho testimony. Dr.
Lavnailcr had demonstrated that the blow
on Fee's head which, In hln oolnlon, caused
tho contracoup fracturo and Indirectly the
rupture of tho blood vessel nnd tho conse
quent death, had been inado hy a hard sub
stance of somo kind. Ho ventured tho
opinion that It might havo been mado by a
list, but probably was made by a kick.
Nono of tho witnesses had mentioned n
kick. Wachtlcr told tho court ho saw both
Coyno and Floth pummel Fco with their
fists, but ho declared positively that none
of his companions on tho night of tho orgtc
In tho rear of tho blacksmith shop had
kicked Fee. Tho next to tho last of tho
prosecution's witnesses wbb Dotcctlvo Sav
age Ho supplied tho missing link to thn
completo chain of testimony. "I arrested
Coyno tho day after tho murdor when ho
was at work In tho Union 1'aclflc shops,"
thn dotcctlvo said, "and took him to the
pollco station for nn examination beforo
tho captsln. In my presenco and before
Captain Her, Dotcctlvo Dunn nnd Floth
himself, Coyno stated that on tho night re
ferred to Floth struck Fco several times
prior to leaving him and walking to tho
nurt street sidowalk. Ho said that tho
group afterward returned from tho walk to
tho place whoro they had been drinking In
tho rear of tho shop and that Floth resumed
his assault on Fco nnd kicked him, as well
ao struck him with his lists."
Tho dofenso mado n determined resist
ance to tho admission of this testimony,
objecting to It on tho ground that It 13
hearsay ovldonco, but tho court overruled
tho objections and Dotcctlvo Savage's state
mtnts quoting Coyno as swcnrlng that
Floth kicked Foe, becanio a part of tho
records which will go to tho Jury for con
sideration. State SfirltiK Surprise.
The attoruoy for tho stato caused some
thing of n surprlso when ho Informed tho
court that ho had but a slnglo witness more,
ond then called tho namo of Michael Moll
ner. This man la ono of tho co-defendants
vWth Leo Coyno. Nothing had been said to
suggest that ho might tako tho witness
ctulr and tell of circumstances that would
lucrlinlnato his companions, so there was a
flutter of genuine surprise when Mollner
stopped beforo tho bench and was sworn.
Mollner Is a youth of slender stnture. A
pallor overspread his features and ho was
excessively norvous when ho soated him
solf In tho chair beforo tho court. His
eyes avoided those of Floth, who sat Just
behind his nttornoys and watched him fur
tively. Most of tho tlmo Mollner stared at
tho attornoy questioning him. Occasion
ally, whoa tho queries related to circum
stances Incriminating his companions, Moll
er would drop his head nnd stammer, but
ovor onco did ho glanco in tho dlroctlon of
Floth. Tho defendant was as unconcerned
s usual. Mollncr's having been a turn
coat to tho "gang" was apparently hb un
expected to him as to tho spectators, but
ho showed no nnxloty. Tho only emotions
ho gave signs of woro curiosity and amuse
ment. Mollnor's story was: "On tho night of
August 22, Just after supper, I met Leo
Coyno. Harry Floth nnd John "Wachtlcr
soar tho corner of Thirty-second nnd Durt
streets. Wo chntted awhllo and then nt
tho suggestion of somcono In the group, I
do. not remombcr who, wo wont down to
Anderson's saloon near Twenty-fifth nnd
Cuming strcots to buy somo beor. As soon
ns tho bovorago wan purchased wo crossed
tho streot, going down tho drlvoway at tho
sldo of tho blacksmith shop to tho rear
whoro a box wagon stood. Wo four climbed
Into tho vohlclo and drank tho boer, pass
ing tho Jug containing It from ono to nn
othor till tho crockory was empty. Floth
was tho only ono who had nny money. Ho
said ho had five cents and would Bpend It.
Ho thon crossod over to tho saloon again
to get tho second Btipply of liquor. When
that was finished Wachtlcr suggested that
wo go homo. Baying that ho must work In
the morning and thought wo had stayed out
lato enough.
Coyne Was Still Thirst?.
"All of U3 but Coyno assontcd. Ho sug
gested that wo havo ono moro round of
drinks, Foth Bald ho had another nickel
nnd volunteered to go aftor a sandwich if
Coyno would again rush tho can. Tho
rest of us loft tho wagon and found scats on
tho ground a fow feet from tho wall of tho
shop. Coyno roturned first with tho boor.
When Floth appeared ho was accompanied
by a stranger. The troublo betwoen Coyno
and tho stranger aroso when, In responso
to Coyne's Invitation to buy another supply
of liquor, tho stranger said. ho had no
money and could not accommodato him.
"Coyno struck tho man sovcral times as ho
eat with bis back to tho wall. Wo thon
left tha enclosure, starting toward Burt
street, leaving tho stranger flopping toward
tha ground. There was a conversation on
tho walk and a fow minutes later wo ro
turned to boo If tho man hnd any money.
That wns lit Coyuo's suggestion. When wo
reached tho man's cldo Floth went through
his pockets. Ho took tho watch. After
that ho struck tho man several times.
Then we nil started home, leaving tho man
lying against tho wall of the shop,"
Judge nakor asked tho witness If he saw
any ouo kick Fuo. Mollncr's answer
was no.
Whon court convened Detectives Johnson
and Helln woro put on tho witness stand
in turn to tell of tho recovory of Fco's
watch, which Floth took from his pocket
after assaulting him. Detective Johnson
said that at first Floth denied having stolon
tho watch, but on being confrontod by
Coyno, who had previously admitted tint
he had taken It, ho confessed and accom
panied tho officers to a vacant lot at Twon
ty-fourth and JoncB strcots, where tho tlmo-
piece was recovered from Its hiding place
In tho weeds.
Defense Calls hat Tito AVIInrssvs,
Beforo tho closo of the afternoon session
tho testimony was nil In and tho argu
ments of tho attorneys for tho prosecu
tlou wcro completed. Tho caso did not go
to tho Jury, but will bo submitted this
morning aftor tho arguments of the do
fondunt's attorneys. Tho defense was con
tented with calling two witnesses to tell
the court that on tho night of tho murder
thoy heard a wagon or carrlago drlvon
through tho alleyway past tho shop where
Fee was found. Tho Importanco of this
circumstance In that Foo might havo been
killed by having been struck by horso's
hoof, as ha lay at tho corner of tho shqp
near the alley.
Harry Floth, tho defendant, was put nn
the stand. Ho admitted that ho was drink
ing In tho rear of tho smithy, but declared
that nolthcr he nor Coyno nor any of tho
others In tho group struck or kicked Fee.
His testimony was identical with that of
other witnesses, excepting that ho would
0t admit having uuarrolcd with, jt-
striking him or taking tho watch, as charged
by tho police.
OIIJUCTS TO DltlVl.VU Mlt.K WAflON.
Sirs, tieornc C. .IrnnliiKs Given n Di
vorce from Her liiislinnil.
When Oeorgo C. Jennings compelled his
wlfo to drlvo n milk wagon bo furnished
tho fast straw that mado tho matrimonial
burden too heavy to be borne, and, ns well,
gave sufficient causa for tho courts to come
to the rescue of his wlfo with n decrco of
divorce. Judgo Keyror heard tho case at
yesterday's session of court. Ono witness
related tho milk wagon episode.
Thcro wero others who wcro will
ing to tell of further Indignities
alleged to havo been heaped by Jennings
on Mrs. Jennings, but his honor waved
them off. "I don't wont to hear any more,"
ho exclaimed. "That's enough," nnd tho
tone of his voice, ns he vigorously nppllcd
his pen to tho decree prepared by the at
torneys, Indicated tho enormity of Jen
nings' offenso In his eyes.
Mrs. Jennings' namo Is Anna C. It
was said In court that her husband' was
not over-fond of work and that ho allowed
Mrs. Jennings to do most of tho chores.
Witnesses said that Mrs. Jennings earned
tho money with which to purchaso tho
cows and a. wagon to peddlo milk nnd did
nil tho work of tending to tho cows and
milking them. Jennings, thoy said, even
refused to drlvo tho wagon from ono house
to another to furnish customers with milk,
compelling his wlfo to add this to her other
duties. Another household Incident thnt
contributed to tho court's willingness to
grant n decree was a tlmo when Jennings
camo homo and without provocation becamo
angry and kicked down tho plpo to tho
kitchen stovo.

Motion for Itclienrlnu- of nn Old Cnse
In the .Supreme Court.
In tho supremo court of Nebraska next
Monday another step In tho recovery of
funds of tho Qrenter American Exposition
assets by the trustee will bo tnken. At
that tlmo Harden Brothers will filo a mo
tion for rehearing In tho caso which was
decided against them on a point of law at
tho InBt sitting of tho court and tho trus
teo will contest tho motion. It Is generally
bcllovcd that the court will sustain its
former action and tho caso will como to
Douglas county whero It will bo tried upon
Its merits. Thero Ih $10,000 Involved In the
suit, but It mny bo several years beforo
any money Is realized should tho case finnlly
ho decided In favor of tho association.
Somo tlmo ago It was generally under
stood that a dividend would bo declared by
tho reforee, but that dividend Is now as
uncertnln ns It over has boon for tho reason
that tho trustco decided that ho could bet
ter protect his trust by keeping tho funds
on hand to pay court costs nnd other ex
penses, rather than to pay 10 per cent or
less to tho creditors. Tho trustco waived his
right to payment of fees under tho first
dividend, nnd will, ho snys, tako his chances
of securing his fees after tho preferred
creditors aro paid In full. From this It can
bo Been thnt tho trustco feels confident that
In tlmo tho cstnto will pay tho preferred
creditors, nnd If all of tho suits now pend
ing aro decided In favor of tho trustco tho
unprcferred creditors mny hopo to receive
a portion of tho money duo them.
