RAILROAD IS EXONERATED
Coroncr'n Jury 1'larra Sn Hlniur for
(be Killing of Thoninn
(ircrn,
The coroner's Jury at tho inquest yes
terday morning over Thomas Oreon, who
was killed Wednesday evening wiillo at
tempting to boaid a freight train In the
local yards of the Northwestern, ex
onerated the railroad company from all
blame.
The members of the crew of the train
which rau over Green were not summoned
before tho Inquest for tho reason that none
of them saw the accident, and all were un
aware of the fact that Green had fallen un
der the wheels until Informed of It later.
Tho evidence taken was that of several
witnesses of the accident. ,
The clearest account of the accident was
given by Charles Uumtn. who was waiting
on his wagon at the Avenue (1 crossing
for the train to pass. TIiIb wltneBs said he
saw Green and a companion coming up
Eleventh street on tho east side of the
tracks, and that the companion went to
n nearby house and wtepped upon the porch.
As Green reached tho Avenue G crossing
the train of freight cars drawn by a switch
euglno passed, and Green made a grab
for the Iron ladder of one of the cars about
tho middle of train. Ho missed his hold
nnd fell crosswise of the rail, but tmc-
...,.1p.i In ilrnwlntr himself clear of the
rail, with the exception of one leg. This
tvAa rim ovnr bv several of tho cars, but
Green struggled and managed to pull him
self clear before tho entire train passed.
Tho witness was the firm to reach Green,
who asked hlm to knock him on the heart
and kill him. as he was done for and was
no eood. Green asked the wltnesa to got
him a drink of water, which n bystander
bronchi from a nearby house.
In answer to a question, tho witness suld
bo nlalnly detected the smell of liquor
on Green's breath. Asked by James Green.
vlntlm'R hrother. how ho could have dom
ii.ii riiimm said that he raUed Green's
head on his nrm and held It for soveral
hliu walling for tho drink ot
-
n:tinr. which he gave him.
The testimony of Hohert Sullivan, the
mm wbn was with Green, was to
the effect that they came to Council Bluffs
lo visit a young woman wltn wuom urecn
was acquainted. He denied that they bad
come over on a rrolgllt train, ami sain
they came In a motor. Sullivan denied
that they had been drinking, but on being
questioned admitted that they had taken a
glass of beer befoio leaving South Omaha.
He said he understood from Green that
he had been n railroad man. but Hlnce
coming to South Omaha he had worked
In the Hammond packing house.

WOMAN TESTIFIES FOR DOYLE
Mr. Ilnntrleo A. MoimIiuhii Proves n
Mriinn Willie Aunliint Hunt
In MlnliiK Mil.
The feature of yesterday's proceedings In
tho Doyle-Burns suit vvns tho testimony
given by Mrs. Beatrice A. Steadmiin of San
Diego, Cat., and tho placing on the stand
of four other witnesses who did not testify
at the trial Inst month. Theso vvltnessoi
were A. K. Hutter. B, W. Klcnl. J. K. Klcal
and Orant Alsbury, all of Crlppl Creok.
Mrs. Steadmiin proved an exceptionally
strong wltnees for Doyle and tho deliberate
manner In which she gave her tesllmony in
face of tho rigid nnd lengthy cross-examination
by Senator Patterson was the most
Interesting Incident In the trial of this cele
brated esse up to date.
Pacts brought out during her examination
showed that Mrs. Steadman Is no ordinary
unman. In the fall of 1SH2 she accom
panied her husband to the Crluslo Creek
district. lived lu a tent for several weeks
nnd assisted 111 m by working nt the wind
lass at tho top of the claim they hud lo
cated while he worked-at tho bottom. Then
later ner husband put up a cabin and kept
a hoarding houso for the miners around
them. Prom Colorado tho Sleadtnnn's wont
to the Klondike, whero they struck It rich
and an now living In California In plenty
nnd comfort.
Mrs. Steadman testified that she had
frequently seen Burns and Doyle working
together on the Bobtail claims: that both
Burns and Doyle would frequently como to
her place to borrow articles and that In
speaking of Doyle Burns Invariably referred
to him as "my partner." She said that In
thn fall of 18'J2 she saw Burns with a gun
at the Davll's Own claim and ho told her
he was holding It until tho return of his
partner, James Doyle, who 'had ono to
Colorado Springs. She said she carried
milk to tho cabin occupied hy Burns nnd
Doyle, and one dny In a conversation with
Burns he told her ho had heard she was
! going to put up a boarding house. Shn told
him It was so nnd Burns olforcd hor a lease,
I but she objected on the grounds that as ho
had a partner It might mix matters. Bums,
' she said, told her to go ahead and put up
her house, saying, "I assure you It will be a
t great accommodation to both myself aud
I my partner. Jimmy Doyle."
Mrn. Steadman also testified to hor hus-
! band getting a contract on tho Bobtail No.
2, which sho said was given by Burns aud
Doyle nnd that Doyle made all tho arrnnge-
i nients.
! A. K. Huttcr. who claimed to liavo bum
thn first cabin hi tho Crlpplo Creek district.
testllied to Burns and Doylo Jumping tho
jB,J(i While claim and relocating it as thn
Tidal Wave. Tho location stake, he said,
had w rittcn on it "Tidal Wave lode, James
Kical and his brother. J. K. Klcal, formerly
president ot the Ophlr Mining company,
testified also to tho Jumping of tho Mnud
White claim and that the location stake
bore both the name of Burns and Doylo as
locators.
Grant Alshury. who wbh present at tho
Jumping of the Mnud White bv Burns ami
Doyle, testified nlso hh to the stuKo bear
ing tho names of tho two locators. Ho Raid
ho passed the claim almost dally going to
and from his work on the Dead lino claim,
the property of tho Ophlr company, as the
shaft waa near tho trail. Ho proved an ex
cellent witness and his testimony was
strongly corroborative of Doylo's claim that
ho and Burns were equal partners In ttielr
locating of the properties now held liy tho
Portland Gold Mining company. Near the
close of his cross-oxnmlnatlon, Senator
Patterson asked Alsbury; "Why did you
como hero?"
"1 caiuo hero because I thought it waa
my duty."
"You always do your duty, do you?"
"I try to, Senator Patterson," and with
this nnswer tho witness was excused.
John 1 Kllday and Iafo r'yffo repeated
practically tho testimony they gave In tho
former trial. Kllday In Ills evidence tes
tified that be and u man named Bill White
tried to lease the Bob Tall No. 2 from
Burns and that when a difference nrose as
to tho terms Burns told tho witness that h
would have to consult with his pnrtner
Doyle. Later Doylo and ho talked tho. mat
ter over, but the deal was not consummated,
hh Doylo, the witness said, refused to nc
cept any terms excopt thoso first offered by
his partner, Burns,
Tho trial Is attracting increased crowds

DBS MOINES, Nov. 15. (Special.) In the j
biennial report of the stnto llsh and game
wnr.len tiled with tho governor today Com-
mlssloner (leorgn A. Lincoln, who was np-!
pointed to the olTlce last April, advocates 1
the adoption ol a law that would limit the
catch of fish hy thoso sportsmen who ilc- (
light In demonstrating how many fish ttiy
can tako from lake or river. Ho would
havo n law passed forbidding any one por
son tt king more than twenty-five fish from
any river or lake In nny ono day. As nn
Illustration of the wanton destruction of
llsh by some fishermen, he refers to a party
of Ushers who. on one occasion the, last
season, sent homo from Spirit lake seven
barrels of fish they had caught and took
homo with them on their return two bar
rels more. Theo were only tho pick of
thulr catch. The commissioner strongly
condemns this hnblt.
Tho commissioner reports that he has
Placed fifteen carloads of fish In lowa
streams or lakes this season. They wcro ,
nil taken from tho bnous of the Mississippi j
near Sabuln. Tho fish hatchery has proven
a total failure. Ho would pass a law
ngalnst dynamiting fish and mako It a fel
ony. He would hare changes In tho laws
so that private Bah ponds may be stocked
at state expense, nnd ho would have the
fish commissioner with power to grant au
thority for the taking of bulfnlo and carp
from certain streams to be sold, becauso
thcso tlsh nro too numerous. Ills plnn of
pntrollug tho state would be to dlvldo the
slate Into districts and appoint deputies
who would bo paid for their work.
llnniipiirto Duni.
The fish nnd game commissioner touches
on the did controversy In regnrd to tho dam
ncross tho Des Moines river nt Bonaparte.
Ufforts have been mado In the past to have
this dam destroyed so as to remnvo an ob
struction to the river, but the courts havo
held that It could not bo condemucd as a
nulsanue, and the owners havo a right to
maintain it. As a matter of fact the d.im
Is of llttlo use, but It is expected the stale
will finally pay for and have it removed.
Tho commissioner recommends this plnn,
all others haviug failed. The owners aro
understood to be willing lo sell and a prop
osition to that effect will ho presented to
the legislature and ho strongly urged by a
lobby.
