HOLD INQUEST OYER SCOTT
Witnesses Differ as to the Manner in Which
8bootiair Wti Done.
ONE SAYS OFFICER STLM3LED AS HE SHOT
f'eantx Attorney KaslUh Has ot
, Peclded Whether lie Will File
. " Information Charging-Goodrich
with Murder.
The coroner's Jury Impaneled for the
Inquest over the body of Elmer Bcott of
Blotis City yesterday sfternoon found thst
h came to his death because of a gunshot
wound Inflicted by Officer Goodrich whl'.e
in' the discharge of his duty. The finding
of- the Jury neither bturaed .nor exonerated
the officer and the question of prosecuting
him rests with County Attorney EnglHlk
The evidence as brought out at the Inquest
was not deemed entirely sufficient for the
t'riunty attorney to tuke action In the case
and ha will further examine thcue wit
noNPe and new ones before tiling any com
plaint. It is probutle he will file charges
against Officer Goodrich today either for
murder In the second degree or for man
slaughter. Three eye witnesses of the tragedy were
examined yesterday afternoon and they
agreed on several points, namely, that the
first two shots were fired so that they
could not have hit him and were probably
meitnt only to Intimidate the fleeing
prisoner; that the prisoner was widening
tho dl"tanco between hlmeelf'and his pur
suer, and that fie was called upon to halt
by the officer before he shot the first time.
There seemed to be some difference of
opinion as to whether Officer Goodrich
stumbled when he fired the th!rd shot, and.
If he did, whether he fired while stumbling
or after having recovered himself.
Drs. Spalding and Pinto, who performed
the autopsy on Scott, were the first wit
nesses railed, and they told of the autopsy
and said that his death was undoubtedly
due to the gunshot wound and not to any
operation afterward undergone. In all re
spects he was In good health and not suffer
ing from any disease that could cause his
death.
Wit Besses at Variance.
Jacob Lrcwls, a witness of the shooting,
stated that Goodrich recovered himself
after stumbling before he fired the third
shot and thst Bcott Immediately cried out
that he was shot and doubled himself up
and stopped running.
II. J. Bottcher. who waa sitting la his
room at the Richelieu hotel at the time,
told practically the same story, but told a
somewhat different tale as regards the
third shot, which, he declared, was fired as
the officer stumbled on the bad ssphilt.
The third witness, C. H. Dorsey, a colored
man, living on the corner of Thirteenth
street and Capitol avenue, had still a dif
ferent version of the firing of the third
and fatal shot. He did not notice the officer
stumble as It was, fired, although he sntd
It might have escaped his notice, as he was
excited and somewhat frtghtened.
The other witnesses called were not wit
nesses of the tragedy and told only of th
details following the shooting and the
condition of the man when the wagon
arrived to take him to the hospital.
Scott was arretted by Olllcer Goodrich
about 9:30 Sunday evening and the two
started for the police station on foot. At
Thirteenth and Dodge streets Soott broke
away from the officer and started down
Thirteenth street on a run. Officer Goodrich
followed after him and fired three shots,
the last of which struck him In the small
of the back and passed through him, re
sulting In his death Tuesday noon. He
was taken .to Clarkson hospital, after the
shooting and afterward Identified as a
man who had been sent to the penitentiary
in October, 1801, for the robbery, of a store
at Tapllllon and served eighteen '"months.
At the time of his arrest he was begging
on the street and had his arm In a plaster
cast, although subsequently his arm showed
no signs of anything being the matter
with It.
Supreme Court Sustains the Foot-Ease
Trade Mark.
Buffalo, N. T. Justice Laughlln In Su
preme Court has granted a permanent In
junction with costs against Taul B. Hudsjn
and others of Ksw York City, restraining
them from making or selling a foot powd?r
which the court declares Is an Imitation ami
Infringement ou "Foot-Ease,"' now so
largely advertised and sold over the coun
try. The owner of the trade mark "Fot
Ease" Is Allen S. Olmsted of Le Roy. N. V..
and the decision In this suit upholds his
trade mark and renders all parties liable
who fraudulently attempt to profit by the
extensive "Font-Ease" advertising. In plac
ing on the market the spurious and similar

crossed gazing into the sky, so they might
leirn reverence for the things that are
above; of others Intently louklng downward
that they might learn reverence for the
things that are beneath, and of others con
templating those things which nreet their
yes upon the level that tney might have
reverence for those things which surround
thorn. The speaker drew a different moral
from the tale than that portrayed by the
German author, saying that all things are
worthy of reverence or attention In the
proper spirit.
He found the genesis of religion In the
reverence of things that are above man In
the physical sense, when man first wor
shiped nature and the higher evidences of
natural law, such as the sun and stars.
Reverence for things beneath cornea with
later dovelcprrent and fuller Investigation,
while reverence for things which are
around us. In tho physical sense, the com
monplace conies last of all, with the fuller
realization of the meaning bf these things.
Taking the lesson In the .spiritual nene
he pointed out tho necessity for the well
developed mind to reverence all things In
their proper sense; of preserving a normal
health attitude upon all subjerts and feel
ing a human, k'.ndly Interest in one's sur
roundings and In the people, both those in
high places and those In the lower walks of
life; of the necessity of this attitude for the
highest development of the Individual
faculties and the growth of that which Is
best In humanity. This was the thought
which, he said, he desired to leave in the
minds of the congregation during the sum
mer months.

OMAHA VIEW IS IMPATIENT
Tired of Waltlnst for Street Cars, Gas
and rublle Improve
ments. The regular meeting of the Omaha View
Improvement club was held last evening
at the Omaha View school house. The
paramount Issue waa Inducing the street
car company to keep Its promise to extend
tho Thirty-third street car line from Par
ker to Maple street and the gathering al
most reached the point of being an Indig
nation meeting.
One speaker said that the Omaha View
Improvement club was largely responsible
for turning down the big five combine In
the old council and that the new members
of that body must do something for the
northwest part of town In the way of
street car extension, sidewalk Improve
ments and grading of some of the hills In
this part of town. "It's time we had the
obnoxious sidewalk ordinance repealed so
that we can have new wooden walks laid,
but at present nothing but repair work
can be done unless the street Is graded
and as very few streets out here have been
graded no relief seems In sight, until a
r.ew ordinance la passed allowing new
wooden walks to be put down."
Other members told of alleged broken
pledges by the old council and car com-
t pauy, who, it was aald, had positively
I stated If these residents would submit to
I a tax for cutting through Thirty-third
street from Hurt to Cuming they would
s ircly run the car clear out to Maple
street.
The matter Is to be pushed until some
thing Is done and after waiting for a rea
sonable time the city council is to be ap
pealed to again.
A committee Is to be appointed to re
quest the Board of Education to do some
! Improving on the Omaha View school
l grounds.
I The club will proceed at once by petl-
tlon of the residents to ask the council's
I assistance In having the gas company ex
tend Its mains out In this section.
The appointment of the standing com
mittee was put off until the next regular
meeting.
