Goodrich, charged with manslaughter In
having thot and fclllad Klmer Scott on
Jjjne 7, 19CS, waa closed In tha district
criminal' court and the defendant put upon
tha stand to testify In hla own behalf.
Tha witness said on the data of tha kill
ing ha waa In tha discharge of hla duties
AS a police officer snd on his. beat on
Sixteenth street In the vicinity of Dodge.
It waa early In the evening and tha Streets
were somewhat crowded. Several com
plaints, he said, had been made to him Of
a man who was begging or! Ms best and
he was on the watch for him. Finally ha
saw Scott "hold a man up" and heard him
tell him that he had a broker! arm and
ask for a quarter. Tha witness then
placed Scott under arrest and was con
ducting him to tha station house, having
hold of his arm. Near Thirteenth street
tha prisoner Jerked hla arm from tha grasp
of tha officer, who Immediately gave chase.
"I pulled my gun aa I ran," said the
defendant, "and after calling -upon Scott
repeatedly to atop, and saylDg that If he
did not do so I would Are. I did fire a shot
Into the air. J held tha revolver In my
right hand and fired Into the air at an
angle of forty-five or fifty degrees. Scott
kept running and after calling several more
times to him to halt I fired again at about
tha same angle
Shot Fired Involuntarily.
"Tha third abot fired, and the on which
hit him, I fired Involuntarily, and before
1 waa ready to da so on account of step
ping Into a hole or depression lit the side
walk. It caused ma to stumble and nearly
tall upon my face. As I did so 1 Instinct
ively threw out my hands to save myself
and tha pistol waa discharged without my
meaning to do ao. I had not shot at Scott
at all and did not Intend to, but, on the
Other hand, waa careful not to take any
chance of hitting him. My reason for fir
ing at all was not to hit Scott, but to alarm
tha officers on the beat toward which we
were running In order that they might
bead oft the man and apprehend Mm."
Goodrich's story on cross-examination
waa substantially unchanged. Chief of Po
lice Donahue. Captain Hue and several
others testified to Goodrich's good charac
ter and that ha was a careful and conserva
tive officer In tha discharge of his duties.
Evidence also was introduced to verify the
defendant's statement aa to the hole in the
sidewalk and ble nearly falling as he fired
the fatal shot.

Jamea Doyle, Wba Lives
with Hint.
The petition of Joseph Tousen to be ap
pointed guardian of Jamea Doyle was
heard yesterday by Judge Vlnsonhaler.
Mr. Doyle, It will be remembered, waa made
the beneficiary in the Will of a relative who
recently died In Dixon, III., to the ! amount
of nearly $1,700, but refused to take the
trouble to secure the same to himself. Mr.
Yousen, who waa on the stand In behalf
Of hla petition, said that Mr. Doyle came
to him several years ago, sick and penni
less, and that he had taken care of him
ever since without money and , without
price. Now that he had been left a suffi
cient sum to take care of himself he thought
ha ought to be allowed the handling of the
same, Inasmuch as the old man was re
ceiving letters every day with all kinds of
proposals to get his money away from him.
Since Ma bequest has been advertised he
baa received frequent proposals of marriage
from different women. Tousen'a petition Is
objected to by Mr. Doyle's brother Michael,

ately t pon Close of Pres
ent Assembly.'
The Nebraska branch of the woman's
auxiliary of the Episcopal church Is in ses
sion In Trinity cathedral. This Is the eight
eenth annual session and an unusually large
number of delegates and other interested
people Is present.
The business session, beginning Tuesday
morning, was preceded by the celebration
of holy communion. President Mrs. Noah
made tha annual address. She pointed to
the good work of the auxiliary In establish
ing twenty-four new branches during the
year, but deplored the lack of more workers
In the mission field. The women of the
church were once more called K give some
of their time and some of their energy In
enabling others to go out Into the world In
compliance with the divine command and
spread the gospel. There were so many In
the United States who were without the
Christian Influence, the speaker thought the
great number In heathen landa should spur
the auxiliary to greater effort. People were
so little thankful for Christ's love they were
not willing to take their time to spread His
gospel.
Mrs. Hamilton, secretary of the auxiliary.
In her report told of the large number of
boxes sent to charitable Institutions and
missionaries and gave other information.

DECISION IS; PROMPTLY FELT
Rallagr af Federal Supremo Court on
Fellow Servant Law Affects
Local Cases.
- i
The principle laid down Monday by tha
United Statea supreme court that "a tele
graph operator for a railroad company and
a fireman on a railroad engine are fellow
servants, and that the negligence of the
former, caualng the death of the latter in
tha operation of trains, waa a risk the
fireman assumed and waa not a ground for
damages against the railroad company,"
haa already had its effect in tha amending
of petitions in the United Statea circuit
court for the district that were about
ready for trial.
A case at hand is that of William Scahill,
administrator, against the Union Pacific
Railroad Company, which waa aet for trial
today, but before the case was called tha
attorneya for the plaintiff aaked permission
to file an amended petition In view of the
supreme court decision. Another was the
case of Joseph D. Rlnder against the same
defendants, both for damagea sustained
by tha heirs of tha first and tha plaintiff
in tha latter ease while employee of tha
defendant company.
Tha decision la likely to affect several
other cases set for trial on like petitions
at the present term of tha United States
court. '

thing about the grocery Jobbing houses
now. Almost all of this article of diet
Is furnished to Omaha territory by the
Continental Tobacco company, which,
short of Its patrlotif name. Is the trust.
Up to date Omaha Jobbera have been noti

difference in the plain leaf tobacco of from
1 to 8 centa and in the finer grades of from
4 to 6 centa Cigars have not been af
fected nor smoking tobacco, bu whole
salers are loading up on the latter In fear
of an advance. The reason given fur the
higher price Is a shortage due to a smaller

last week In April and caught Omaha
houses unprepared. The advance was mad
and ths dealers notified afterward, so that
none had a chance to get In larger stocks.
Since that time notifications have been re

raise In this or that brand. One of then
advances of a cent waa marked up t)day,
but It ia on a brand of tobacco very llttln

of the eating tobacco to move up several
