The hearing of the application of the
plaintiff In the big Colorado mining suit
of James Doyle against James F. Burns,
former president of the Portland Gold Min
ing company, for a new trial waa begun
before Judge Thornell In the district court
yesterday morning. As court did not con
vene until 11:30, little was done at the
trornlng session and the greater part of
the afternoon session was occupied with
the reading of the affidavits filed by the
plaintiff In support of his application.
J. J. Ferguson, one of the court report
ers employed during the last trial, which
resulted in a verdict for Burns, was
placed on the stand on behalf of the
plaintiff and he testified to hearing Juror
Klersch make a statement during a recess.
In the presence of the other Jurors, that
the suit ought never to have been brought
In Pottawattamie county, as neither Doyle
nor Burns paid taxes here.
" Constable Lee, Albertl was placed on the
stand and examined as to his affidavit, In
which he swore to hearing W. B. F1shr
make statements derogatory to Doyle in
the presence of some of the Jurors In a cer
tain saloon Albertl stuck to his orlglnat
statement, and the defense then placed
Sheriff Car nlng on the stand. Sheriff Can
ning was d.'-ected by the court at the tltno
of the report i that the defense was employ
ing Fisher and others to circulate deroga
tory reports concerning Doyle to make on
Investigation, wnlch he did. Canning tes-
tilled to making the Investigation and hav- ,
Ing a conversation wun aim, ourmi t
which he said Albertl told him that Fisher
made the derogatory statements In the
saloon, but none of the Jury was present
at the time.
These were the only witnesses placed on
the stand yesterday.
An agreement was reached that In con-
slderatton of Burns entering hla voluntary

examined and re-examined on the affida
vits before a commissioner at some agreed
place In Colorado and that when such
cross-examination and re-examlnatlon shall
have been forwarded to the clerk of the
court here the motion shall be finally sub
mitted, although counsel on both Bides will
be permitted to file briefs.
The defense reserved the right to move
to require the plaintiff to elect under what
section of the code he would prosecute the
.. .i.i nntnt.. i
motion or petition filed October 16.
It was stated yesterday that the defense
wou),j not read Its counter affidavits In
open couYt, but merely submit them with
the other evidence. Attorney G. 8. Wright
will open"" the argument for the plaintiff
and will be followed by ex-Governor
Thomas for Bums.
Attorney Giles will
then speak for Doyle and will be followed
by Congressman Smith for Burns and John
N. Baldwin will close for the plaintiff.
With the exception of the filing of briefs
and the cross-examining of Burns and
Peck In, Colorado the hearing In open court
will be completed this evening.
MOTHER SEARCHING FOR HER SO
Leaves Trala Betweea Kansas City
and Connell BlnfT.
Mrs. Bridget Cunningham, who resides
near Merle, la., applied at . police head
quarters yesterday afternoon for assistance
In locating her son, Thomas, aged 30 years,
who mysteriously disappeared from a Bur
lington train Saturday afternoon while she
was accompanying him to Council Bluffs.
The eon was recovering from a severe
attack of malarial fever and Mrs. Cunning
ham went last Monday to Billings, Mo.,
to bring him home to Merle, intending, how
ever, to stop off here for a day or two and
visit another son, Philip Cunningham, in
Bouth Omaha. At Kansas City Mrs. Cun
I nlngham bought tickets over the Burling
ton for Council Bluffs. After leaving Bt.
Joseph the son left his mother and went
tfum-iiu uic "J 1 1 hi i inn iiiv.LUY-i anu " l 1 L
Into the smoking car, but when the train
reached the local depot In, Council Bluffs
he was not to be found. A search at the
transfer depot failed to locate the missing
man and Mrs. Cunningham hastened to
Bouth Omaha thinking that perhaps her
son had succeeded In reaching the home of
his brother there. He, however, was not
In South Omaha and up to yesterday after
noon the aged mother had failed to secure
any trace of her son. and when she sought
the assistance of the local police she was
almost prostrated with anxiety.
Thomas Cunningham, the missing man.
Is about six feet tall,, but bent from sick
ness. He was dressed in an old plaid suit
and wore a blue peaked cap. His hair ls
dark brown and his face was clean shaven.
He had no money and his mother fears
that his severe Illness may have made him
j mentally deranged. Mrs. Cunningham re
j turned last evening tn the home of her son
in South Omaha, deferring her return to
her home in Merle In the hopes of getting
some tidings of the missing man, as the
local officials of the Burlington agreed to
send a tracer out along the line.
Kothlnai Doing oa Ditches.
The supervisors of Harrison and Potta
wattamie counties met yesterday afternoon
in adjourned joint session in this city, but
tn the face of the restraining order Issued
by the supreme court no further action was
taken in the matter of the contracts for the
construction of the proposed drainage
ditches. It was suggested that the super
sedeas granted by the supreme court did
j not prevent tha supervisors from proceed
ing with the matter of assessments for

decided that it would be best to do nothing
, further until the bearing before the su

AtlorneyB Daniel Horrlgan, who brought
the harges, and John H. Wharton, defend
ing, had many a warm tilt over the method
of Pfrocedure, and Mr. Wharton was not at
all a'areful to modulate a naturally stronff
yntfc. Mr. Horrlgan 1s low-voiced but per-
"'"lent, and th- chief Histlce of the court.

J conference with Tils colleagues over the
Injections and counter objections raised.
he associate Justices looked' as wise and
Interested as the veriest ,1lg wig of them alt
could possibly look. Heads were' wagged,
eyebrows lifted, la points canvassed and
decisions given most soberly; but, be It
said to the credit of the court, with a fiber-
aJity that sought to develop all the facts.
Justice Eastman admitted changing a
Judgment after It had been entered in a
replevin case, and also that he had paid
back a certain amount that had been paid
him for a change bf venue. This after he
had tried the case. Mr. Horrlgan contends
that a Judgment must be entered wltrrln
four days and cannot be changed. There
were two other counts In the com
plaint lodged with the board by Mr. Horrl
gan, but this transaction appeared to be
the principal one to which exception was
taken. 1
The taking of testimony occupied half a
day Saturday and two hours Monday morn
ing. The arguments were then opened and
the chief Justice and hla associates had to
sit and listen, put they first took the pre
caution to limit the attorneys to fifteen
minutes each.
At the end of the talkfest the court took

with an assumption of fierceness. "Gone to
see his girl. I suppose," he added, with a
sly twinkle, as he tossed several hundred
weight of lumber onto a wagon.
"How much did the fair clear for the or
phanage. Father?"
"I cannot tell you a thing about It until
Friday at the earliest. I had nothing to do
with the handling of the money at all.
Come, boys, we must get this place cleaned
up by noon," and spitting on his hand In
the good old way, the priest again shoul
dered a bunch of debris and hustled It, over
to the entrance. v '
"We have yet to hear from the ticket
committee, the soliciting com Here, my
good man, clear away this wreckage first
fhe soliciting committee, the booth commit
tee and gather up all the loose ends. It's
Impossible to even guess Just what the re
sult will be In a financial way. But the
fair was a fine success, all things consid
ered. The people of Omaha have been gen
erous In support and later on we will be
able to thank them formally and heartily."
Then Father McNamara found himself
almost on the point of shouldering the
whole skeleton of a booth that had been
made principally of lee cream bricks. He
certainly evinced the spirit of a master
i ntevedore In his task of cleaning out the
dismal looking litter that had glittered for
a week In sweet charity's cause and was
now being sidetracked for other diversions.

Leo Sung, claiming to be a Chinese

VACANT CHAIR IN COUNCIL

POLITICIANS BUSY ON SHORT NOTICE
At Least Three Men Mentioned In
Connection mlth the Place and
Corporations Holding Secret
Caarnsea on gltaatlon.
Although Councilman Goor T. Nichol
son of the Fourth ward did not die until
S:W Sunday afternoon, and even then his
ena was sudden and unexpected, politicians
were avwiy discussing tne matter oi nis ,
successor Sunday evening. It Is said tnat ,
one or two secret meetings were held tor
the purpose of shaping up the deal. Conn
cllnicn who will have the task of choosing
a man to fill the vnenncy say they know
nothing about any such gatherings.
The urath of the Fourth ward councilman
Is the second In tho present city council,
the first being that of R, W. Dyball of tha
Seventh ward, early In the year, after a
long sickness, of Bright s disease. In his
i case the matter of a successor was discussed
openly long before his death and arrange
ments made to have him resign from his
sickbed so that his brother, Charles O.
Dyball might be Installed In his place. This
proposed shifting Involved corporation In
terests and did not go through. I-utor
Charles Q. Dyball was elected to fill th
vacancy, but not until some time afttr
his brother's death. '
Corporations Ciet Bnsy.
Coming very suddenly, the demise of
Councilman Nicholson, left tho polltlcinns
and corporation lobbyists unprepared, but
they set about to repair this condition at
once, according to a well-known public
contractor, who refused to give up any in
fvrmation. He ls authority for the state
ment that at least one secret meeting was
held Sunday night about the matter.
Frank B. Kennard, who failed for nomi
nation In 1903, hnd already announced that
he would be a candidate next spring. He
refused to talk about his attitude In view
of Councilman Nicholson's death. D. W.
Wheeler, also, had been laying wires
for a spring campaign and the name
of W. B. Taylor was mentioned
Monday In connection with the
vacancy of the Fourth. All three of theae
men have .served In the council before.
8. C. Barnes, a member of the legislature
from Douglas county, and Arthur Briggs,
the hatter, are also aspirants for the place.
W. F. Oerke and Robert D. Duncan prob
ably would have been candidates had not
the redisricting of wards placed them
In the Eleventh and Ninth, respectively.
"The man elected to fill the vacancy
will have to come from within the present
boundaries of the ward," said City Clerk
Elbourn. "Under the In w he cannot be
taken from outside of the lines as most
recently authorized by ordinance. The
changes in the Fourth ward are not great."
'"nance for Majority.
A majority of the council will elect the
new Incumbent. This will give the ma
jority, composed of Evans, Dyball,
Schroeder, Back and Huntington, a chance
to put In a man who will make their rule
absolute by giving them six votes, or
enough to override vetoes and do other
things sometimes useful, requiring at
least six votes. It requires this number
to make a quorum for the transaction of
business also.
ELBOURN HARVESTS HIS CROP
