Slot Machine Case in to Be Opened.Up
Once More.
ABJIAIGN SIXTEEN NEQS0ES
County Attorney Hagner and Jndsro
James Callnnan tvlll Try Men
Arrested In Ilald on Vn
srranor Chars.
Old Omaha Landmark
Standing 40 Years is
Wrecked by a Fire
One of the oldest landmarks In Omaha
In the way ot buildings was destroyed Fri
day night by fire, when the barn at the
rear ot 1701 Capitol avenue was burned
tc the ground. It was erected forty years
ago. The origin ot the blare la not settled,
nut it u thought to have been started
by tramps who have been known to
sleep there. The structure burned like
tinder and was a complete wreck a little
while after the tire was discovered. It
was valued at JIM and wa covered by
Insurance. Carl Carlson, who occupies the
house on the lot had Sift) worth ot car
penter's tools In the building.
Walter Whltehouse was arrested this
morning under ausplclon. as neighbors
assert that he has been seen to enter
the barn for the last three or four nights
He waa found asleep this morning in a
near lot by the police.
Again the slot machine case Is to be
opened up. This was learned yesterday
when Judge Troup let It be known that
the attorney for the mayor -of South
Omaha was seeking to reopen the caso
Judge Troup, however, would not consent
to the reopening until attorneys tor P.
C. Caldwell had been given a chance to
show why It should not be reopened.
It is understood that an affidavit ot
Mayor Hoctor says that the mayor was
not properly represented by counsel at
the last hearing of the slot machine case,
Assistant City Attorney Winters Is out
of town at present. Ha will probably
take caro of his end of tho matter when
he returns, according to City Attorney
Henry C Murphy, bta lavr partner.
Winter has always Insisted that he no
tified Hoctor to get ready to make a re
turn. The mayor Bays that he knew noth
ing about the case.
Caldwell's attorney, A. II. Murdock, will
probably oppose anything like reopening
the case
Fear Not Grand Jury.
When the Judges of tho district court
meet this morning they will decide
whether or not a grand Jury Is to be
summoned, according: to word received tn
South Omaha yesterday evening. When
the news got out there was considerable
comment among local people who con
nected the rumor with the recent ac
tivity of the sheriff In South Omaha.
Whether the grand Jury will be con
vened can not bo stated, but It Is safe
to say that not much fear has been en
gendered by tho report of the grand. Jury.
A year ago, when that body met, there
were, some Indictments and then after a

getting between 375 and ISO. McClenahan's
SU watch and several dollars of his own

"Don't make a yip, or we'll be back
