LINCOLN, Feb. 2. (Special.) Miss Jen
tile Thomas, who laat night shot and killed
Fred Broderaon for accomplishing ber.rula '
and then refusing to marry her, it still 'in
a critical condition, though there ara soma
bopes held out for -her recovery. Today at
the hospital Mlaa Thomas made a statement
under oath to (he coroner that she had
not gone to Broderson's room with the In
tention of killing him.
"I had no Intention of killing Fred," she
said, "when I went to his room, but I had
determined If he refused to marry me, that
1 would kill myself in his presence."
She stated further that ' Broderson' had
started toward her to strike her before
she fired the fatal ahot. "I went to hla
room," she said, "and found that he was
talking-to some man. I waited until tbo ;
visitor left, stepping Into the room of
George Wherrltt. After Broderson'a guest
bad left, he came out of bis room, and I ac
costed htm. Broderson asked me what I
was doing there and called me a vile name.
Ho then went Into Wherrltt's room and I
followed hloi."
After they hal gone Into the room Miss
Thomas said she asked Broderson If be in
tended to marry her. The reply was that
he never Intended to marry her. During
the conversation Mine Thomas took the re
volver from her satchel. Broderson asked
f her what she Intended doing with It, and
- sho replied that she Intended to kill her
self. Broderson, she said, had warned her
from coming to his room, and suddenly he
started for her. "It was then," 'she said,
"that J shot him." The room was dark,
and as the woman started across the room
he stumbled over the body of the dead
man as she fell. She placed, the' revolver
against her own face and fired.'
During the recital of the story the
woman waa remarkably calm, though It is
evident that she regrets having fired the
ahot that killed Broderson.
She who. It Is nald. had Incited the Jeal
ousy of Misa Thomas, la Miss Myrtle Way
of this city. Upon her Broderson bad called
of late and on a recent occasion offered
. ber a ring that he had previously given 'to
and taken away from Hiss Thomas. Miss
Way refused to accept the ring and she
was afterward Informed hy Mtss Thomas,
who had called upon her, that - she and
Broderaon had quarreled and that he had
taken the ring from her the day he had
offered It to Miss Way.
Broderson and Miss Thomas were dis
covered last night by George Wherrltt,
who, with Broderson, occupied a suite of
rooms In the McMurtry block. It was In
tho room generally .used by Wherrltt that
the thootlng occurred. It joins that of
Broderaon.
The data of the '".quest bas not yet been
decided, owing to the -condition of Miss
Thomas. The Jury viewed th remains and
las beeAr ekcused until the date has been

MOTHER OF MURDERED MAN ON THE STAND
Swears that Her Hon and Defendant
Always Lived Happily Tosretner
Others Testify to the
game Thlnas.
DAVID CITY, Neb., Feb. 26. (Special.)
Far greater progress Is being made by the
defense In the Lllile murder case than was
anticipated. Thirteen witnesses were on
the stand yesterday, most of whom testi
fied as to the relations that existed be
tween Mr. and Mrs. Dllle for tbo last six
years. Counsel for tht defendant said laat
night that they had ten witnesses yet, and
that would close their side of the case.
This they expected to do In the nrorning.
Tomorrow the state will Introduce rebuttal
testimony, and the argument will be made
Saturday.
The large district courtroom was packed
to Its utmost cspaclty, and large crowds
are expected until the close of the trial.
When court convened this morning Mae
Lllile was cn the stand for further cross
examination. She said In part:
1 "Mrs. Lillic asked me It I did not re
member a night or two before the murder
that Julia Flcke and I had the key and
came in at the back (kitchen) door. I told
ber that I did not remember that. Mrs.
Lllile told me that there was some things
that I ought to remember. She said the
night before the murder when I went to
see If the kitchen door was locked that I
might have thought It was locked." -
Ed A. Confal said: "I am a stenog-apher
and typewriter for Matt Miller. I took the
testimony of this case at the preliminary
hearing. I remember that I took the tea
tlmony of Dr. Sample and transcribed the
same Into typewriting." Witness wss not
permitted to testify from tbe transcript.
Witness testified from his shorthand notes
as to the testimony of Dr. Sample, I. J.
West and L. C. Ren given at the preliminary
bearing, which Is for the purpose of con
tradicting the evidence ot those witnesses
given on the trial now In progress.
Home Life Congenial.
The cross-examttiatlon ot this witness
elicited the fact that In some cases It Is
difficult to tell the difference In certain
words.
F. F. Ware said: "I have known Mr.
and Mrs. Lllile for seven years; have seen
them at lodges and other gatherings; have
been at their borne evenings, and my oo
aervattons has been that they were har
monious and congenial.
"On and prior to October 24, 1902, the
reputation of Mrs. Lllile, as far as I know,
was good.
"I have seen them sitting on the porch
and In the hammock. This was when I
was going home at night. This would be
from 1:30, 9, 10 and 11 o'clock.
"Mr. Lllile was In my store frequentlyi
quite often In the evening. We frequently
went home together at night."
W. E. Hewlt and other witnesses testified
that the domestic relations of Mr. and Mrs.
Lllile were the very best; also that the
reputation of Mrs. Lllile prior to October
24. 1902, was good."
Caroline M. Woodward said In part: "I
have known Mrs. Lllile for Ave or six years.
On the morning of the murder I Was awak
ened by some girls pounding on the win
dow and crying. I did not hear them say
anything. I got up and ran to the win
dow Dr. Stewart told me what- the trou
ble waa. After he left I looked across the
street and saw a light shining from the
dln'ng-room window of the Lllile home. I
dressed quite deliberately and went to Mr.
Lillle's house and went upstairs, and Into
the room where Mr. Lllile was. Mrs. Lll
ile and others were there. I noticed Mr.
Lllile. His face was turned to the west,
head to tbe south. The doctor was wiping
the wound. Mr. Lllile breathed very heav
ily and strangled. The doctor turned his
head and allowed the mucus to run. He
was again laid on tbe bed more on bis
back. Mrs. Lllile was rubbing ber hands
and crying. She would say: 'Oh. It was
my money they wanted. Why didn't they
take the money and leave my husband?'
"After Dr. Beede came she and I went
downstairs. She went to get her wraps.
Mrs. Lllile was dressed. She waa not go
ing to bave any breakfast, but I Insisted
and she drank a little coffee. I do not re
member that she ate anything.
Mra. Lllile Crylna.
"I went to the hospital. Mrs. Lllile and
several others were there with her. Mrs.
Lllile was moaning, crying and talking
some. We were all trying to comfort her.
She waa In thla room all of the time I was
there. I went and got some clothing for
Mrs. Lllile. Mrs. Leeper assisted her In
putting the clothing on, Mrs. Lllile talk
ing and crying all of tbe time. Her talk
was of the condition of Mr. Lllile. She
bad persons go upstairs and Inquire how
he was. She made requests to go upstairs
to see Mr. Llllia.
"I left tbe hospital the last time lit
tle before o'clock."
Cross-examination: "Tbe moon was
shining that morning, but not clearly,
as I noticed. I do not know how
high the moon was, but It was the old
of the moon, as we express It. I do not
know what time the moon arose that morn
ing. I was not noticing particularly that
morning, but it was not bright and clear.
I could not dlatlnguish objects In my room.
I do not recall that I testified before tha
coroner's jury that It was getting llaht In
the room, and I could see a chair across
the room."
The cross-examination of this witness
was not concludej wheo court adjourned for
the noon hour.
The crrss-examtnatlon of Mrs. Wood
ward was reaumed when court convened
thia afternoon. She said:
"I now remember that Bert Hall was In
the Lllile beCreom when I first got there.
I did not testify before the coroner's Jury
that when I first got there that morning
Bert Hall, Mrs. Ullte and two or three
other men were there. Theft were strangers
to me. I did not pay any attention to
anything but Mr. Lllile. Possibly la part
I did. and In part I did not. so tettlfy at
that time regarding the peraona. I should
have testified at that t'me that Mra. Pue
low was there. I now remember that ahe
was there. The testimony before the cor
oner's Jury was In a conversational way.
"I noticed that Mr. Lillle's face was
turned directly to the west. I never waa
clear on that, but think I could have seen
toth eyes; I should decl'ne to say pos
itively, but I could see a part of the left
side of bis face. Do not remember that I
could sea the cheek bone. I do not re
member that I testified before the coroner's
jury that I did notice the poaltion of Mr.
Lillle's head and he was lying with bis
face toward the west a little. I might
bave so testified.
"I did testify before tbe coroner's jury
that I could see both eyes. 1 had a pretty
full view of bis face."
Makes More Measareaieata.
E. R. Watson, recalled, said: "I bave
made some measurements since testifying
yesterday. The distance from tha window
jam to tha bed rail la sixteen Inches; from
bed rail to sash, fifteen Inches; from bed
rail to south side of window sash, twelve
Inches; from bed rail to south side ot
window sash, eleven Inches."
Witness here Identified the lock taken
from the kitchen door and explained It In
detail to the Jury.
Eldon Long said: "I collect premiums
for the Northwestern Accident association
of Des Moines, la. Mr. Lllile carried a
policy In this company. The last time he
paid his premium was In June, 1902."
Mother of I.lllle on Stand.
Mrs. Msry Lllile, the aged mother of
the murdered man, said: "I am 73 years
old. After Harvey and Lena were married
they lived In part of the houae with me
for some time. After they moved to David
City I came to see them; sometimes I
would stay a week, sometimes less. I had
not been at their house for two or three
months prior to the time of Harvey's death.
I saw both of them the evening before his
death at my daughter'a, Mrs. Warren. They
were always pleasant and affectionate."
Cross-examination: "When I saw them
at Warren'a, Harvey said that he waa tired
and wanted to go home. He spoke about
going first. Harvey waa exceptionally good
tempered and good-natured."
Sam Lllile, a brother of the murdered
man, said: "I had a talk with Mrs. Clara
Warren. She said there were cobwebs In
the lower part of the keyhole. The round
portion waa perfectly clean." v
Cross-examination: "My wife and two
boys are In Los Angeles, Cat.; the other
boy la here with me. I left California
about eleven months ago.
"Mr. Hill and I went to see Mra. War
ren. I think It was In the afternoon.
Mother Lllile and Miss Dean were present.
I think the talk was In the kitchen. Mr.
Hill, myself and Mra. Warren were the
only ones that heard the conversation.
Mr. Hill and I went to see Mrs. Warren
about aome matches that were found In
tho Lllile home. I do not remember who
did the talking particularly. I think Mr.
Hill asked ber If the match she found
hsd a red or a brown head. I cannot re
member all that waa said. The way we
came to talk about the keyhole, she said
she found dust and cobwebs In the key
hole. I asked ber to show what portion
of the keyhole had dust and cobwebs la
It. She showed us. I think Mr. Hill
looked on; do not remember that he said
anything. My wife Is a sister of the de
fendant." J. S. Hill, father of Mrs. Lllile. said:, "I
heard Mr. Derby testify that he bad found
a purse In tbe Lllile house. I was present.
It was taken from the bottom of the dresser
drawer In the room where Lllile was
killed. I saw tbe money counted. I was
present when Mr. Walling took the cur
tain out of the Lllile window. He aid not
take tha window sash at thia time. Ho
sent Mr. Heath after the aash. I and Sam
Lllile assisted Mr. Heath In taking the
sash out. We had to use a hatchet to get
It loose. We found a small piece ot wood
under tha body of tbe window."
Witness Identified the piece of wood and
It waa admitted In evidence. . It Is a piece
ot wood about six Inches long, one Inch
wide and one-fourth ot an Inch thick.
"It was lying flatways under the sash."
.Cross-examination: "I came to David

MURPHY CASE CP AGAIN
Another Chapter Ended in Litigation
Between Priest and Bishop.
SEVERAL MOVES ARE MADE FOR DELAY
After Mirk Sparring and Several Mo.
tloas Are Overrnled Caase la Set
for Hearing at April
Terns.
SEWARD. Neb.. Feb. 26. (Special Tele
gram.) Judge Sornborger adjourned dis
trict court here today, having disposed ot
all tbe cases for trial.
The attention of the court was taken up
yesterday and this afternoon with the case
of Bishop Bonacum against Rev. William
Murphy. This case, was started last Sep
tember and came up for hearing In Decem
ber, at which time both parties asked for
time to take the depositions of the church
tribunal at Rome. Yesterday the attorney
for Bishop Bonacum filed a motion to
strike the defendsnt's answer from the
files, but the motion wss only sustained In
part. This morning the bishop asked for
the ten days' time In which to reply, but
the judge only allowed him until the after
noon adjournment. He then asked that an
other Judge be called to try the case, but
thts also was refused. He then asked for a
continuance until the next term of court
to enable him to take tbe deposition of tbe
papal delegate at Washington, and thla also
was refused. The bishop then asked for a
change ot venue, alleging that Judge Sorn
borger was prejudiced and biased, belong
ing to the same political party and waa a
personal friend of Rev. Murphy. This mo
tion was also denied, and the bishop then
filed a motion to dismiss the action, but
this motion was resisted by the defendant
and the case was finally set for hearing at
the April term.
The bishop withdrew his motion to dis
miss after there appeared to be a disposi
tion to hold him for contempt of court.
This la said to be the ninth action com
menced by the bishop against Father Mur
phy and In November, 1901, Judge Sorn
borger Issued an Injunction restraining the
bishop from beginning another action until
the church courts hsd given a decision of
the matter in controversy.

DAKOTA LEGISLATORS BUSY
Senate in Qolet, bnt the Honae Mem
bers In m Contentions
Mood.
PIERRE, S. D., Feb. 26. (Special Tele
gram.) Anotr-cr rush of new bills came Into
the senate today, the principal ones being
to reduce tbe number of pacers in which I
Insurance statements shall be printed -In i
each judicial circuit to one; by Robertson,
to appropriate money for building at peni
tentiary and at the deaf mute school.
The senate passed the following houso
bills: Increasing fees tor lease or purchas.i
of state lands; providing for restoration of
destroyed records affecting real titles; re
lating to redemption ot unpatented tnlnlna
; education wltbout submitting to a vote; pro
hlbttlng the killing of large game except
from November 15 to December IS of each
year; the peddler license bill waa passed
after exempting aewlng machine and piano
agents from Its provisions and reducing
the fees.
The Sunday observance bill created a
flurry, Moody moving Indefinite postpone
ment, whlcb failed. Boyland opposed It as
a matter which ahould be left to every
man's conscience to settle for hlmaeif, and
It was Snally sent back to the Judiciary
committee without action.
The bouse was In a scrappy mood and
atarted on the ad vers report of tbe'graln
dockage bill, which Scobell moved to change
to a favorable report. Price asked that tbe
change be made to bring the bill up for
consideration, and stated that the commit
tee which considered It was composed .of
three farmers and three gralnmen and di
vided evenly In regard to the value of the
bill. Potter, Elliott, Countryman, Craig
and Allen opposed a change in the com
mittee report, as they did not see any good
In the bill .declaring that the farmer would
be Injured Instead of benefited by It, but
on vote the Scobell amendment carried by
vote of 35 to SI.
Welch attempted to secure reconsidera
tion of tbe Iawaon wholesale druggists
bill, whlcb was killed In the houae yester
day, but failed by a Vote of 36 to 22.
The next fight was In the Ninth Judicial
circuit bill. Including tbe counties of Beadle,
Spink. Kingsbury and Noner. called out a
sharp tilt between Longstaff of Beadle and
.Brown of Sanborn, In which the question
of veracity took a prominent part regard
less of the gavel work of the speaker.
Teare and Goddard favored the bill, while
Carroll and Craig asked for delay, but It
was pushed to a vote, carrying by 67 to 17.
The appropriation of 35.000 for an ex
hibit at St. Louis passed by 77 to 7, after
an attemr-t to amend to $25,000 failed.
Tbe house passed the senate bill to au
thorize the Stat Board ot Charltlea to dis
pose of certain lands at the reform achool
and purchase others.
The principal new house bills, not senate
duplicates, were to Ax salaries of registers
of deeds and county auditors, and make
terma of town officers three years.
The first move on the question of cap
ital removal repeal came In the house to
day In a notice by Price of a motion to
amend tbe rules to allow suspension of
rules by a majority vote. Tbla will bring
tha matter up aa a test In the bouse to
morrow. BOARD HAS FMTH IN COOK
