Ltna Llnnler, a private soldier of Com
pany I, Twenty-fifth Infantry, was ar
raigned before Judge Mcpherson In the
United States circuit court yesterday
charred with the murder of Sergeant Rob
ert Tour of the same company at Fort
Niobrara April 17 last. The accused pleaded
not guilty. LJnnler Is a mulatto, a young
man of Intelligent appearance, and very
neatly dressed. lie was employed as the
body servant to the commanding officer
of the regiment Just prior to the murder
of Sergeant Tours, and the killing of the
sergeant was the outgrowth of 111 feeling
that existed between the two.
The court appointed John M. Mac
farland to defend the accused. The prose
cution Is looked after by District At
torney W. 8. Summers and Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Rush. The entire morning
was devoted to securing a Jury to try the
ease.
The taking of testimony began shortly
sfter 1 o'clock tn the afternoon. About
twenty witnesses were examined. Including
the defendant. The line of defense was to
prove that there was great provocation for
the murder.
Llaaler ea the Btaad.
The defendant, Una LJnnler, In giving
evidence In his own behalf, said: "I knew
ergeaifc Tours from August 27. 19u2. to
April 17. 1901. I served In the Philippines
two years, seven months and seventeen
days. Before that I was a member of Com.
pany C Twenty-fifth Infantry, and served
In Arizona. I first enlisted in 1898 at Mem
phis. In the Tenth Immune regiment, and
have been five years In the army. The
morning of the shooting I went down to
Valentine with Lieutenant Colonel Reed tc
see hlra off, he having been transfjTed to
another, regiment. I returned to the fort
about : that morning and went Into the
measroom for breakfast Just before this
Sergeant Tours and I were arguing about
the statement that General Baldwin was
reported to have made to a newspaper re
porter In Denver, where he called colored
soldiers nothing but curs. In the talk I
denied that he had made such a state
ment. Then Sergeant Tours called me a
Tile name end I told him to take It back.
He refused and when I went into the mess
room I asked Sergeant Smith for my gun,
as I had reported back to the company for
duty and wanted to clean It up. I got the
fun and took some cartridges from a belt
and loaded the gun and went Into squad
room No. 1, where Seargeant Tours was,
with the intention of making him take It
back. I was going to make him take It ,
back with the gun. I Intended to knock
him down with the gun and was about four
feet from him.
Intended Shoot Hlaa.
1 "w hin reach under the head of his
bunk for something and then I fired. I
only Intended to shoot him low down, about
the hips, and not to kill him. I did not
Intend to shoot unless he came at me. He
did not come at me, but reached under the
head of his bunk and then I fired. I loaded
the gun myself to make him take back
what he called me."
The only evidence presented by the de
fense. In addition to that of the defendant
was to show that Sergeant Tours was In
the, ,habH of. swearing-. at the. members of
tho company.' There" was no evidence that
be ever struck or threatened any of the
soldiers. .
The testimony of the prosecution was to
tho effect that LJnnler shot Tours shortly
after coming into the barrack room. No
one heard any conversation between them.
LJnnler was Immediately arrested with
the gun In his hand. After he fired the
first shot he sprang another cartridge into
the gun. Tours was killed almost Instantly,
dying In the hospital a few minutes after
be was shot.
I.loutenant Mapes, commanding the com
pany, testified to the excellent character of
Tours, as a strict disciplinarian and a good
soldier generally.
The testimony was concluded at 4:15 yes
terday evening and adjournment was taken
to t o clock this morning for argument
Retake Llcstessat Mapes.
During the trial Lieutenant Mapes. com
mandlng officer of the company to which
Llnnier and his victim belonged, was asked
to sit by the attorney for the government
for consultation. . Lieutenant Mapes had
been a witness for the prosecution and had
already given In his evidence.
Attorney Macfarland. counsel for the ac
cused, overheard Lieutenant Mapes make a
remark that he thought referred to one of
the witnesses for the defense then on the
stand. He immediately appealed to the
court and protested against the officer In
jectlng himself Into the case Jo the preju
dice of the defense. Judge McPherson
thereupon administered a rebuke to the
officer, saying: . "Such, conduct is In the
highest degree reprehensible and ungen
tleraanly, and I wish you to understand
that the civil courts of the United Btates
will not for a moment tolerate such busi
ness. The military of the United States Is
strictly and absolutely subordinate to the
cJvlI power of the government"
Lieutenant Mapes arose and stated that
the court had been misinformed and that
he did not do anything to deserve the re
buke. . "I was Invited by the district at-
torney to take a seat by him to answer a
few Inquiries regarding the case, as I was
the officer who originally investigated the
case."
District Attorney Summers stated In ex
planatlon that Lieutenant Mapes had been
Invited to take a seat by him, and the re
mark that Attorney Macfarland had over
heard,' and to which he had taken excep
tion, did not refer to the witness then on
the stand, but to the prisoner, and was
In direct reply to a question the district
attorney had addressed to htm.
The explanation of Mr. Summers was sat
lsfactory to Mr. Macfarland and he apol
, oglsed to Lieutenant Mapes and the court
' for causing the unpleasant Incident, and
the rebuke was withdrawn.

Taxpayers Are Speculating on Amount of

SOME EXPECT NINE MILLS WILL BE RATE

Gossip.
Taxpayers are beginning to speculate on
what the 190 levy wUl be. Of course no
definite estimates can be made until the
Board of Review completes Its work and
the exact valuation of city property as re
turned by the board Is known. While an
of the complaints so rsr niea wim iw
Board of Review are for small amounts.
It Is expected that next week some ot ine
corporations wlU file complaints on account
of their valuation being increaseo. as com
pared with one year ago. As the board sits
until Thursday. June , mere i sun .uij,..
time tor the filing of complaints and the
nesrlns of arguments.
As far as the levy for this year Is con
cerned, the members of the council are
all at sea. A great deal depends upon the
result of the bond election and the amount
of ths decrease or Increase In the total val.
uaUon. Should the overlap bonds be de
feated, some provision will doubtless be
made In the appropriation ordinance to take
up at least a portion of the overlap. Then
again, the council may levy a tax suffi
cient to wipe out the overlap In one year
and thus do away with the paying of In
terest on the warrants outstanding. Should
ths overlap be paid in one year the taxes
must of necessity be considerably Increased
as compared with former years.
With the voting or overlap oonas n
thought that the city can get along nicely
on about the same levy as last year. 8S4
mills. The rapid growth of the city natur
ally Increases expenses In all departments,
and each year for the past eight or ten
years the overlap has been gradually grow
lng on account of the disinclination of the
city authorities to levy enough taxes to
meet the obligations lainng uu.
financiers deem it safe to predict that the
levy this year wlU not exceed mills, and
property owners sincerely hope that this
prediction will come true.

This afternoon two platoons of the South
Omaha cavalry troop will proceed to Pries'

Mayor Koutsky announced last night that
today the paved streets In the business
portion of the city would be Bushed. A
detail of three firemen, with boss and three
men from the street department will do
the work. For this work the citixens and
taxpayers are Indebted to the members ot
the Fire and Police board. Secretary Berg
qulst of the board tendered the use of
three men and some hose to the mayor,
and as the streets are in a filthy condition
the mayor gladly accepted the offer.
Arrangements are to be made, so it Is re
ported, to purchase some condemned hose
and have, the street department flush the
streets when the work Is needed to be
done. In order that the administration may
not be under too many obligations to the
Fire and Police board.

In the case brought by Michael Spellman
to recover 11,000 damages for the refusal

at which place the contract for delivery
to Spellman specified; that through some
mistake of the railroad company the sand

Spellman learned this he demanded the

Sunderlands then allege that they refused
to deliver the sand in Omaha, but offered
to deliver It at Fort Crook, which offer
was refused by the purchaser. The de

"We have to do something with these
fiends, however, for they are dangerous.
They give us more trouble than any class
of people. They steal everything they see
loose and In order to get their poison they
would not hesitate to commit murder. We
have arrested them and thrown them In

soon as they get out they begin again and
steal clothes, carpenters' tools and nearly
anything. I do not believe the habit In
Omaha is growing to any extent, though
It seems that way. From the fact that we
have closed their dens we see more of them

but most of them are old timers."

MUST WAIT FOR NEW MAINS
City Engineer Qitea Opinion that Peoplt
Cannot Force Water Company.
HYDRANT REMOVAL WOULD NOT DO IT
Oplaloa Is that Company Coald not
Be Compelled to Extend Mains
More Thaa Once for the
Same Bydraat.
In the opinion of City Engineer Rose-
water Councilman Zimman's proposal to
have unusued fire hydrants transplanted to
localities where they will be of service Is
not practicable. The engineer, who Is thor
oughly conversant with the contract made
twenty-three years ago between the city
and the water company, says the agree
ment prohibits such removals, unless the
hydrants are to be placed along some water
main already constructed. One of the chief
objects of removing the hydrants Is to se
cure the extension of mains In localities
unprovided with water. The question of
fire protection enters, of course, but at
every location where a new hydrant is de
manded there is no main. The water com
pany might waive the right to refuse to
change the hydrants, but this. It Is clear,
will not be done, as It would require ex
penditure for mains and since ths municipal
ownership proceedings began the company
has ceased to make extensions or Improve
ments In the pipe system.
City Engineer's Optalon.
"The contract, as has been said before. Is
a good contract for the water company,"
said Engineer Rosewater. "It provides that
for every S84-foot extension of mains a firs
hydrant must be established, for which the
city pays $o0 per year. This provision, of
course, applies to new hydrants not speci
fied in the contract. Now, In my opinion,
the city cannot compel the water company
to change the location of the useless
hydrants because It would entail an ex
tension o( mains. The matter of ths city
bearing the expense of the removal cuts no
figure. The fact of the matter Is that you
can't compel the water company to extend
Its mains twice for the same hydrant, no
matter where It Is located."
Should Mr. Rosewater be correct a great
many property ovnwi will be disappointed,
as It was hoped to have the hydrants
changed and water supplied before the end
of the summer. The requests for new
hydrants and extensions number more than
two score, and some of the communities are
In bad condition to resist fire. It appears
that they roust wait, however, until the
city has formally taken over and Is operat
ing the water works.
