i ' . ' '
Once upon a time a battle was lost all
because of a little horseshoe nail and Tues
day evening a alight squabble between two
little boys over sorpe pigeons resulted In a
fight between two men In which one drew
a knife on the other, the fainting of one
woman, a hurry run by the police in the
sultry air and general excitement over sev
eral blocks of one of Omaha's most peace
tul neighborhoods, calling out nearly the
entire population.
When tha little boys fought, H. B. Green
182f North Twenty-first street, sought to
part them. John Faulkner, a neighbor and
brother-in-law., wanted tbe fight to ' con
tinue and thus he became engaged -in an
altercation with Green and the scene 'of
greatest activity waa soon transferred to
their vicinity, tbe little boys becoming the
spectators. Faulkner got a wallop on the
mouth whereupon he drew a knife. Prompt
ly one of the - female onlookers, a Mrs
Smith,, fainted, the wives stepped In to
end hostilities and someone telephoned the
police a stabbing affair was In progress.
Peace was soon declared and the police
farebore making any arrests.

NEW YORK, Julv W.-Harry Kendall
Thaw tonight In the Tombs prison gave out
his first formal statement since he shot
and killed Stanford White on the Madison
Square roof garden. In it the young man
litters a protest against being regarded
as Insane and declares his counsel assure
him that no such course as the appointment
of a commission to Inquire Into his mental
condition la contemplated. The statement
W-ss hnnded by Thaw In person to the news
paper representatives. lie gave It out with
the permission of his counsel, with whom he
plesded all day to be allowed to deny In
person the current reports aa to hla In
sanity, and especially the publication yes
terday afternoon of a purported Inter
view with one of his counsel. Quoting the
attorney as saying the prisoner waa un
doubtedly Insane.
Young Thaw's statement follnwa:
I am Informed, hv Mr. -Olcott and Mr.
Orulcr thst the interview with the latter
In one of last evening's papers quoting him
(ruber) to the effect that I m now In
sane and that a lunacv commission would
be appointed to demonstrate that fact, haa
HO foundation whatever; that Mr. Gruber
never made such a statement and that no
such course Is contemplated.
Mr. Olcott further' ti lls ine that he did
not go to PhilaViphla -for the purpose of
seeing or inquiring about Harriet Thaw
or her nlleged Insanity; that his visit bad
nothing whatever to do with the question
of my mental condition or of any member
or my family.
The statement was signed with the Ini
tials "H. K. T."
When asked If he had anything further
to remark. Thaw said:
That statement embodies all I have to
say.
Despite the rapid Are of questions hurled
nt him by the reporters. Thaw remained
smiling bnt noncommittal during four or
five minutes h was with the press repre
sentatives. Several Witnesses Kxamlned.
Assistant District Attorney Garvan con
tinued today vigorously to prosecute his
Inquiry Into the case and had before him
several prospective witnesses. Among
them were James L. Ixderer of Philadel
phia, who was . manager of "The Wild
Rose" theatrical . company at the time
Evelyn Nesblt, now Mrs. Thaw, was a
member of the organisation; May Mac-
Kenxie, an actress and friend of Mrs.
Thaw, and Mary Ieahy, Mrs. Thaw'a
maid.
Mr. Lederer told the assistant district at
torney that It was his belief young Thaw
Is crazy. He based hla opinion on the man's
actions during the time Miss Nesblt was
a member of, "The Wild Rose" company.
Miss MacKenzie and the maJd were ques
tioned but briefly, being told to report
again next week foi;. a further examination.
Edna McClnre, the actress who was ex
amined by Mr. Garvan' Sundsy afternoon,
denied today that she made many of the
statements attributed to her In the news
papers, saying specifically that she did not
tell the assistant district attorney of any
threats she la supposed to have heard Thaw
make against Whitex '
' The district attorney's office Issued a
subpoena thla afternoon for Mrs, Beatrice
Schwarrs to appear, .in John Doe proceed
ings before the gTan Jhry. Jt Is said the
district attorne-jr weighed to' question Mra.
gefiwarts , 'as to ''pigged threats she' over
heard., Thaw make. against White. Earlier
Id the day counsel for Mrs. Schwarta de
clared she would 'not appear' before the dis
trict attorney, ,-
' Mrs. Thaw's Mother Wanted.
The presence of Mrs. William Holman, the
mother of Mrs. Harry Thaw, la said to be
much dealred at the district attorney's of
fice. According to report attorneya who are
at work on the prosecution's case would
like to question Mra. Holman particularly
with regard to one -of the trips to Europe
made by Thaw and Evelyn Nesblt. Ac
cording to one story, while Thaw and the
girl were In London, an appeal waa made
to the American embassy ta break up the
relatione between Thaw and Evelyn Nes
blt and have the glii aent home. Thla
appeal, it la said, was made by Stanford
White, who acted on the request of Mra.
Holman. It waa at thla time, the atory
goes, that Mra. Holman waa much
prejudiced against Thaw.
It was said today that if Mra. Holman
should come within the territory covered
by a aubpoena frotri the district attorney
she would be at once summoned to his of
fice. Jamea L. Lederer of Philadelphia, who
waa manager of The Wild Rose compauy
when Mrs. Thaw was a member of tha
chorus, waa examined by Assistant Dis
trict Attorney Garvan today. Lederer la
said to have told Mr. Garvan that ho had
long believed Thaw to be Insane. Tbla
opinion, he aald, was based upon his ob
servations of Thaw during the time The
Wild Rose company waa playing In this
city. In this connection ha mentioned
several incldenta in which Thaw waa the
central figure.
gays Thaw Was a Dope Flead.
. "It waa common talk among all tha
people who knew Thaw," said Lederer,
"that' Thaw was a 'dope fiend.' I recall
one night when Thaw waa about to aend
two of hla chorus girl acquaintances home
In a hansom cab. He waa there with a
friend of hla named McKay.
"Suddenly Thaw insisted In trying to
jump over tha roof of tha hansom.
"Of course, he cquldn't actually Jump
over the roof of the cab, but ha tried and
succeeded In crawling up one aide of the
cab, over the roof and down the other
aide. McKay remonstrated with lilm, but
it was no use. Then McKay, apparently
disgusted, turned aside aod aaid: 'You
can't do anything with a crazy man. He's
drug crazy.' " ' ;
Another Plttsbara Witness.
. PITTSBURG. July" lo.-It was learned
here today that a witness who will appear
in the Thaw case when it conies to trial
in New York will be Paul Dorn of Wllklns
burg, a suburb of (his city, who Harry
Thaw took to Europe several months aao.
and who returned alone two months a Me
sailing. Dorn, when seen today, would
say Jittla about his connection with Thaw,
but did aay that he sailed on May 21, and
returned on July 19. He would not say
why be returned so soon when he ex
pected to remain all summer, pur give any
details of his visit abroad. Dorn also aald
ba had been instructed to keep his mouth
shut and pot say a word until he had
heard from Thaw'a attorneya.
Dorn said that Thaw had written to him
frequently, but he would not state whether
he had saved the letters.
"I will go to New York," aald Dorn,
"and tell what I know gnd I won't, take
very luhj to do It, but It .will be enough."

LETTER SUGGESTS A MURDER
Note to Marshal Warner Tells of
Body Dag from Soil
by Dogs.
t'nited States Marshal Warner Is In re
ceipt of a letter from Dickens, Lincoln
county, which has some elementa of tragi!
Interest in it and may develop Into a pos
sible murder. The letter telle the atory
thus:
DICKENS, Neb., July . 190 fnlted
States Marshal, Dear Sir: Mr. Joseph
Doyle 6f Wallace purchased a place, or
farm, from Harry Russell, six miles from
Dickens, over a year ago. Mr. Doyle s
sons snd myself stayed there at Intervals
for the last year. About a week ago wa
hauled a wsgon snd let It stand outsiiln
the front door. The weather being ho-,
the dogs lying under the wsgon got scent
of a body of some kind that was burled
there. The dogs dua; down snd found A
body; we don't know what yet, as we hsvo
not been able to tell. We gathered some
bones thst came out of the hole. Thi
body Is badly decomposed. The ase looks
suspicious. The place waa a cattle ranch
snd It was not customary to bury dead
animals. The plsce was strewn with 'lend
cattle when we enme there. That her
should be an animal buried within ten feet
of the front eloor looks very improbable.
Even the bones we found. If proved to
be some brute animal, it would still 'ook
suspicious that there was something else

a human body was hurled there, as tha
lensrth and width of the grave would in
dicate nothing else. We were gone for
a few days and the dogs tore up the
body considerably, but there Is part un

to Investigate the mstter we will give you

ALL BILLS ARE DISMISSED
Indictments Returned by Grand Jory
Against Third Ward Election
Officials Thrown Oat.
All of the Indictments returned by the
grand jury against Third ward election of
ficials were dismissed Tuesday morning
by County Attorney Slabaugh. They were
all similar in nature to the one tn the
Riseman case, which was dismissed by
Judge Sutton on the grounds It waa drawn
under a law which has been superseded
In Douglas county by tha voting machine
law.
The Indictments were agalnat the ten
members of the board In the Second and
Third preclncta of the Third ward. All
were charged under the misdemeanor
law with violating the secrecy of tbe bal
lot by going Into the curtained enclosure
with votera who did not require assist
ance. The wording pf the Indictment did
not conform to the provision of tha voting
machine law under which the election
waa held and Judge Sutton held the de
fect waa fatal.
The fault grew out of the fact that
the grand Jury did not car to return
felony indictments against-the officials.
Hence the indictmenta were drawn up Un
der tha general law lnatead of under the
voting machine law.
County Attorney Slabaugh also dis
missed the Information against Ole Jack
son, janitor at the police station, charg
ing him with criminal aasault upon
Thelma Do Vaugh, a woman of the tender
loin. AUBURN WILLBE INVADED

EXPOSE OF CRIER'S RECORD
lull Irmstieation Will Be Ordered by
Mayor of the Council.
DAHLMAN WANTS THE' LOTS TURNED ON
Chief KiecntlTe 'Asks that Inquiry
Into Records of Police Court
Clerk for Entire Term
Bo Made.
In connection with the Investigation being
made Into the records of former Police Court
Clerk Lee Grief, Mayor Dahlman said Tuea
day morning: "My first step In the mat
ter will be to call on tha city council this
evening and request that body to appoint
an accountant to examine Grlcr'a fecoids
for the entire term o'f his office as clerk of
the police court, which, I understand, was
six and a half years. Farther than that
I am not in a position just now to say
anything more on the subject." The mayor
Intimated ha would recommend the ap
pointment of an expert accountant ao the
records may be examined carefully.
Aside from the proposed examination at
the Instigation of the -mayor' and council,
City Comptroller Lobcck etarted his deputy,
Fred Cosgrovc, and Clerk Frank Plank
checking over Orier's records Tuesday
morning. Cosgrove and riank began with
the time Grier left the office, June 19. and
will go back month by month.
The first work CoRgrove and Plank are
doing Is to enter on the clerk's daily docket
book the disposition of every prisoner com
mitted from the police court to tha city
Jail after each day's session of the police,
the "city mittimus" in each case allowing
thla Information. With a record of fines
paid to the clerk during sessions ot police
court already .on tha docket and the mitti
mus information added by tha comptroller s
clerks, the next step will be to check back
on the docket the triplicate fine receipts
held by the comptroller. The work Is
proving to be a slow Job and will take
soma time , for the two clerks to check it
all up. , ' . , ; ,
Take Judge and Clerk's O. Ka. .
' In regard to prevtoua cbecka made by the,
oity comptroller at -Uie-police oourt clerk's
office, . Mr. ,.,Lobeck- explained. Tuesday
morning that hla office relied on the daily
"O. K." ot the police Judge on tha clerk's
docket, the custom not being to , go back
ot tbe Judge's approval In the .auditing,
check. . An examination of . the clerk's
records since. January, when Judge Craw
ford came into office, ahows that Judge
Crawford did not "O. K." and sign the
docket, for the reason, as be explained,
that he wanted to make sure the system
in vogue waa reliable before attaching his
algnature to the reeorda. The refusal ot
Judge Crawford to affix hla signature to
the clerk's books aroused the comptroller's
office and later caused the Judge to make
an Investigation on his own. account.
Realizing that hla-O. K. to tha clerk'a
recorda means something,- Judge Craw
ford began to stir things .-up, tha result
being that he and the comptroller's office
have devised a system which will show a
complete record of every person arraigned
In the police court. To determine whether
prisoners shown on tha records to have
been committed to tbe county Jail wera
actually aent there, the police judge will
hereafter receive each day. a report from
the county Jail showing 0 abstract of all
prisoners received from the city Jail. These
reorta may be checked back to the clerk's
docket at the police court by tha police
judge. . , .. .
City Comptroller Lobeck expressed him
self Tuesday morning aa pleased with The
Bee's exclusive exposure of the whole af
fair and believed much good will result
therefrom, not only In the police court,
but will also have a good effect In tha
various departments of the city administra
tion. . " y
