ORAXI) ISLAND, Xeb., Feb, 15. (Special Telegram.) A small state bank at Phillips, seven miles cast of here, was robbed last night. Four robbers broke down tho door with a sledge hammer and completely wrecked the safe, securing between $1,000 and $1,300 Some of tho money was so bai,1r defaced and torn that ono could not and a few, shots fired, but there Is no clue whatever to Identify any of the garyr. This Is the third attempt on the bank, previous efforts being failures. It Is supposed to have boen the same gang that made the previous efforts. Tho robbery was committed about 1:25 a. ra. The men took a sledgehammer nnd battered down the front door. This awoko sovoral of tho neighbors. Will Dearlng was among those who were startled out of their sleep and stepped out to Investigate. Ho could not see distinctly, but says there were at least three and possibly four men. The station agent at Phillips was also awakened and fired three shots In the di rection of the bank's door, but the dis tance was too great and It Is not likely that tho bullets carried to the robbers. Upon securing the money the robbers ap proached the railroad track west of the depot and tired n shot at the station agent, but without effect. Mr. Akers, meat mar ket man, states that he heard n team shortly after the robbery, going east, and tho fact that some of the men started out west leads the people at Phillips to be lieve that the band separated. Mr. Raker, cashier of tho bank, started out afoot this morning to Grand Island to discover any trace of the robbers, The shorlff of Hamil ton county, at Aurora, has been sent for and will take tho case In charge. Blood hounds have not been sent out owing to the fact that the bank officials and officers have Uttlo faith In their work. Last Juno n similar effort was made on the bank. When the second attempt was mado In June the Lincoln bloodhounds were sent for, hut their work was unsatisfac tory. MIiIoii'h mt High School.

THERESA WILLIAMS TELLS OF DRINKING Stnlp Orlpr So TrnUniony In Itetinttnl. ntul Court Ailjunrim I'ntll Till Morning Ilefrtidnnt In Cool, FREMONT, Neb., Feb. 15. (Special.)- The evidence Is all In In tho case of Wll llara Khea, accused of the JIahn murder. At the morning session August Schneider testified ho first saw the three men In Xr.hn's place. After remaining there per haps ten minutes Schneider went out In company with Albert Orley. Tho three men had .preceded them and wcro standing a ilttlc uth of the door. They came toward witness and his companion half a nilnuto later. His account of the talk there was substantially the same as that of Orley. With Orley and Passold the witness went Into the saloon at the command of Gardner. He heard Orley tell 52ahn: "Those toys have guns." Almost Immediately after ho saw Rhea and Gardner In tho doorway with guns In their hands and heard tho com mand. "Hands up!" Ho was standing where ho had a full view of Znhn as ho came out from the table townrd the center of the saloon with his hands In front of him, palms outward, nnd at about the level cf his Bhouldcrs. After tho shot was fired Fchnelder got out of the back door as fast as he cquld and saw nothing furthor going on Inside. Martin Passold, one of tho three men whom Rhea drove Into the saloon at tho point of his revolver, detailed tho occur rences outside the saloon nnd told how he went In with the others. Ho was near tho front of the saloon nhen Rhea llrcd the fatnl shot. "How nenr?" ho was asked. "Not more than three feet from hlni," was tho answer. "What did Rheu do then?" "He looked down at him with his gun still In his hand, took a step to him and raised his foot as though he was going to kick him, then says, 'Get up,' calling him a vile name; 'you nln't hurt much.' " On cross-examination ho denied that ho had had any trouble with tho men In front of tho saloon; In fact, ho said he had scarcely spoken to them or paid much attention to them until Gardner asked: "What you rubbering at mo for? Think I'm Pat Crowe?" A. Stolhcrg was playing pool when the trouble commenced nnd was standing, lean ing on the back of Znhn's chair. Zahn took the chair up and moved It enough so he could step out. He didn't ralso It In the air. Sheriff Kreader testified to the arrest of Gardner at tho Williams place on tho Elk hoVn river half a mile southeast of Crowell. After searching tho house. In company with Officer Crawford, and finding nothing he went to the barn nnd looked that over. Discovering tracks In the snow ho fol lowed them to the river nnd while on the Ice saw defendant Jump out of the hay stack and run cast. i;nitii' III" Itevolvrr. "I commanded him to hnH. and as he kept on running I emptied my revolver at him. Crawford took up tho search and J went back to tho stack. I thought there were more men In there, so 1 ordered them threo times to come out, nnd then, placing my men around the stack, I set flro tq St. In about two minutes Gardner came within the circle and gavo himself up." Tho witness testified that as the stack was burning there were several explosions arid finally one very loud, nnd smoke and debris shot high up Into the air. Police man Crawford's testimony was along the came lines Sheriff Phillips of Cuming county do- talicu me part no iook in me pursuit oi Rhea. In company with his deputy, Gal lagher, nnd M. Coggewell he took up his trail about two miles east of Crowell. They followed him along a creek bottom for some distance south, then west about eighty rods toward a farmhouse, where, ho said. "I got n team, then drove west forty rods, then north forty rods, then east. AH tho while he was running in a north easterly direction. Then straight north to another farmhouse. There I stopped and got another team. Wo continued tho pur suit to another farmhouse. As I turned tho corner of a shed I saw him coming, running straight east. I stepped out and told him to .halt and throw up his hands. and he did so. Ho wns then almost In front of tho door of the house." When Rhea was searched nt the yard witness found n revolver, loaded with six cartridges. While the defendnnt was run ning he held the gun In his right hand. The revolver, an ugly-looking 44, with tho shells still In It, wns produced by the wit ness. "Is that loaded?" asked Judge Grlmlson. "Yes," was the answer. "Well, unload It then." The witness unloaded It and the revolver was Introduced In evidence. A dilapidated open-faced watch, with cheap rolled-plnte chain with perhaps a third of Its length broken off, found on the defendant, was also Introduced In evi dence. Tho witness further stated that he had a talk with Rhea on tho way to Fremont about the shooting.

Theresa Williams, the woman In the case, was the first witness called by the de fendant. She testified that Rhea, Gardner and Darrell were at her place the night of January 3 and the morning of January 4, leaving thd house between I and 2 o'clock. They were drinking heavily Thurs. day night and on the morning of the 4th Kot four pint bottles of whisky at Crowell and had drunk two of them before they left.

She claimed to be n married woman, hut admitted that her husband did not go by the name of Wil liams. Itlirn'n 1'ntlier U (nlleil When the name of William Klein wns called there was a general stretching of necks nnd n subdued excitement throughout the room ns n gray-hatred, iitrongly-bullt man with heavy iron-gray chin whiskers came forwnrd. Ho gave his residence as Cincinnati and said he was father of the defendant. He testified that defendant left homo four and a half years ago. A fair wns In progress in the town In which he then lived nnd his boy, as near ns ho rnuld learn, left with some horsemen. Since then he had heard nothing from him until ho learned of his arrest Ifcr the murder of Zahn. On cross-examination by Attorney Martin ho denied telling Mm.

On redirect examination, In answer to a question by Mr. Gray, "If you told anyone that you was the stepfather or tho grand father of defendant It wbh Mr. Chestnut, the officer at the Jail, wasn't It?" he an swered, "Yes." Deforo leaving tho stand he finally admitted having told Chestnut that ho una defendant's stepfather, but claimed that soon afterward ho told him tho truth about it: He appeared much relieved when Mr. Gray told him ho was excused. Mr. Gray then announced "the defendant rests." Tho stato had no rebutting testimony and court adjourned till tomorrow morn ing. Rhea left the room looking as cool and unconcerned as on the first day of the trial. OXLEY RELIES ON HIS RECORD Make Stt Rffon to Account for Ills l'onspKKlon of Cattle of the Murilcrril I'lilllmrt. HROKEN HOW. Neb., Feb. IB. (Spe cial Telegram.) The testimony In the Fullhart murder enso suddenly came to a close at 4:30 this after noon. The state rented nt 2 p. m., using only halt of the witnesses It had sub poenaed. The defense put twenty-six of Its witnesses on the stand, all of whom testified to the previous character of the defendant, leaving twenty-two not called. Tho principal part of the testimony In troduced by tho state today related to the location of the ranches L and route over which tho cattle were .trailed from Full hart's ranch to the T. L.- V. ranch. R. E. Koon, a draftsman, prosentcd a map Including parts of Custer, Logan, Blalno and Thomas counties, designating tho ranches nnd trail of the cattle over tho route the Fullhart cattlo wero driven by Oxley. A leather scabbard of n revolver usually carried by Fullhart was Introduced and Identified by John Bales, who sold thera to tho deceased. The scabbard was found on somo old harness In tho house the day after Fullhart's body was found, but tho revolver, which was a white pearl-handle, was missing, as was also a tin box from which the old man bad been seen to take money. Tho sudden termination of the trial this afternoon was a surprlno to nil, as there was a general belief that the defense would attempt to account for Oxley being In possession of the Fullhart cattle. The prisoner did not go on the stand and his friends evidently could glvo no tangible reason for his having tho cattle. During the entire trial the prisoner re tained, his composure remarkably and at no time manifested more concern than an ordinary spectator. Many of the host citi zens of the vicinity of Arnold testified to the good character and peaceable qualities of the defendant when he lived thero, as did A. L. Spearman, a stock dealer and banker, and George Rlngo of Springfield, Sarpy county, where Oxley had lived a por tion of tho time the last twenty years. The attorneys will take up the argument of tho case at 9 o'clock tomorrow. HUMANITY LEADS TO MURDER Olcaou IleiuoimtrntP with Man (or AlinaliiR Horap nnd Hla Denth ia thr Itcault. COLUMBUS. Xeb. Feb. 13, (Special Tele gram.) To the surprise of all, Attorney Oondrlng announced at 5:30 this evening that tho state rested In the Gentleman murder case, after examine ten witnesses. The contention of the state tho tho trouble originated between Gentleman and Oleson In October, 1900, when Oleson Interfered as Gentleman was maltreating a horse. When district court convened this morn ing, John M. Gnndring on behalf of the state outlined to the Jury what the state expected to show. He said It would show that Gentlemau, after having had some troublo with others, rushed to oft.ee of Patrick Hayes, marshal In the vlllago of l'latto Center, and, picking up a shotgun went straight to the blacksmith shop of Oleson and nt close range shot him In the breast and are, from which Injuries he died two days later. Judgo I. L. Albert on behalf of the defense nnnounced that he would show that Gentle man was not in the possession of his mental faculties when the deed was committed, that he could not be held responsible for his actions, Tho taking of testimony was then com menced, Judge Hollenbeck appointed two special bailiffs to watt upon the Jury, They are quartered at the Meridian hotel, and aro Instructed to allow no one to engage them In conversation on any matter, while going back and forth between tbelr quarters and tho courthouse. Patrick Hayes, vlllago marshal, testified that be found that his gun was missing from his office and thought he taw the end of the stock protruding from under the de fendant s coat. He followed and saw Oontle man enter the blacksmith shop and "heard the ehcti. He was about twenty feet be hind him. Gentleman fired instantly upon .entering the shop. Dr. Hnnion said he was called in con sultation at the post-mortem examination He described the wounds ard swore that death wns due to the shots. H. C. Preston saw Gentleman approach and look Into the shop; then went away and returned In about twsnty minutes. He heard the firing. Robert Wilson, who was Oleson'a part ner. tald Oleson had started to go out otj tho door o' the shop for some material which was needed In the work they were J dolug. Ho was about six feet from the door when Gentleman appeared, gun In hand, and stood or. the doorslll nnd fired. The first shot took effect In the breast and right arm. Oleson grabbed the gun with his left hand. Wilson sprang and grappled with Gentleman, The marshal appeared at that moment. The gun was discharged n second time, tearing off the thumb of the left hand. He heard Gentleman on Octo ber 19. threaten Oleson.

McKenzle heard Gentleman say, "I'll kilt him some of these days," John F. Webster heard the defendant say on the nfternoon of the day of the shoot ing. "I'll make 'em think they're In tho Philippines beforo they get through with mo." He also heard him declare he would kill Oleson, Martin Burns nnd E, C. VanAl len before sundown, Scott Hopkins testified to hearing the defendant say practically tho ame,as Web ster's testimony. John Klpp heard Gentleman say In Frevert's saloon about 3 o'clock on the. day of the shooting that he would kill Burns, VanAllen and Oleson beforo night. Many witnesses were passed without any cross-examination. Wilson was subjected to a heavy cross-fire, but his story was not shaken In the main. Tho defense tried to show by some of tho witnesses that Gentleman had suffered a wound In tho head earlier In tho day from an encounter with Mnrtln Burns, but only one witness saw anything out of the ordinary, and that ns n bump on tho cheek. The defense has a long list of witnesses nnd will commence taking testimony In the morning.
