The dead man was lying almost on his back, with his head directly north and a portion of the body in front of the door. The face presented a most ghastly and horrible sight, with the wide staring eyes, open mouth and features drawn in that awful agony of the death struggle. In the wupper back portion of the head on the left side was a terriblo gaping wound almost an inch in diameter from which the brains are protruding. The skull was cracked around in front and in several directions radiating from the hole made by the heavy Blood had eopiously from the wound, ears and blow. flowed mouth, and formed a large and thick pool of clot back of and underneath the head and body By the side of the doorway, a few feet from the feet of the body, were a letter and paper which had fallen from The key ot the door was atill in its place and the lock the victim's hand. was not turned. The weapon which may have been used to send the bullet crushing into the murdered man’s brain was found lying imme- diately at his feet, with the handle resting on the right foot and partly within the pantaloons. | About six or ecight feet from the body, in a southerly direction, were several spots of blood on the floor, two as large as a silver quarter. These were immediately in front of tho water tank, which stands about threo feot to the south of the door- way. In the pail under the tank was about a gallon of water. Floating on the top was a clot of blood, resem- bling bloody phlegm, as if is had been apit from the mouth of the murderer into the pail. There were other tinges of blood in the water which in- dicated that hands had been cleaned or partly cleaned of the damnable evidence of the assassin’s guilt. Coroner Jacobs made only a casual examination of the body, but found no other injuries except a slight con- tusion on the left knee, which might have been caused by the victim's fall, By 3 o'clock about fifty men were the looked with horrified oyes upon the congregated in hallway, who dead man lying so ghastly and still, and listor.ed with bated breath to the stories of those who were first upon tho scene.

The trial of Charles De Groat arson progressed yesterday with as much rapidity as possible, and M main testimony was closed before ad- journment of court. The same wit- nesses for the defense as appeared in the trial of Ben De Groat were sworn, The principal ones were the prisoner, Chas. De Groat, whosolemnly averred upon the stand that he did not know anything conserning the fire, and Mrs, Altman who again swore to the fact that she knew the boys were in the house at 10:30 p. m. on the night of the fire. During her eross examina- tion the question was asked her as to why she wished to get into Chas, De Groat's trunk, when it was at- tached during his absence, and previ- ous to his arrest. She hesitated to answer, but the counsel for the state urged his question. Stll she hesi- tated, and the counsel for the prose- cution commenced to smell a rodent of mammoth proportions and rose in his seat to insist upon an answer. “Well,” said Mrs. Altman, as she looked toward Charley De Groat and smiled, while the prisoner perceptibly colored, “‘ho (meaning Do Groat) wrote me to get possession of his love letters, which were 1n the trunk, and which he didn't want the parties having posscssion of it to read.” An ‘audible smile wentaround the court room, and it was evident from the faces of the jury that they appre- ciated the point. KFor the moment the idea of DeGroat's being a prisoner wasa forgotten, and it was evident that the reply had unlocked the ‘‘one touch of mnature which makes the whole world kin.” The excited coun- sel for the prosecution sat down, After the witnesses presented by the defence had finished their testimony the state produced a witness, whose presence had been announced but it had been thought by his not appearing before that he has not to be sworn. District Attorney Burnham called “Mvr, Herrick,” and there was imme- iately o flutter of excitement in the court toom, Herrick stepped to the witness stand without much embarrass- ment and gave his testimony in a me- chanical way. He did not appear to be under great discomfort from the fact that he had come from the peni- tontiary for the purpose of sending another man there for the same criwne, and seemed to rather enjoy tho atten: tion he received. His testimony created somewhat of a sel ion as it was given. In effect it wasas follows: In September preceding the fire T had a conversation with Charley De- Groat. He eaid that he wasn't mak- ing money and wanted to get rid of his partner Kreele. He said it would be a good plan to increase the insur- auce and then burn the store; that for this thing was often in New York city and usually successfully. He offered me $500 to do the job., Two or three days after the store was burned I heard the De Groats talking together and Charley laughed at Ben for making so much noise in climbing over the: shed into their room at Mrs, Altman’s and get- ting in the window, after he had run home from the tire, Sey eral days af- ter the store was burned Charley told me that if too many questions were asked we should lay it on Kreele, Herrick was most vigorously cross- examined by Gen, Cowin for the de- fense, and statements were con- siderably mutilated.

The Red Cloud is one of finest steamers in the river trade, and has a large carrying capacity for freight and sengers. She is commanded by Capt John A. Will- efficient pilot. Capt. Williains stated that the Sherman, a government boat, would be down in about ten days, having received orders already to go to St. Louis, where she will probably be put to some new use, being old and unfit for river business, It was dusk when the Red Cloud cut loose and drifted slowly down to the bridge, behind which her huge hull soon, sank from sight amongjthe moon- beams and shadows on the great river.

On Monday last the carpenters working on the Millard Hotel build- ing, corner Douglas and Thirteenth street made a peaceful and quiet re- quest for the small advance of twenty- five cents on the day's work of ten hours. No threats were made and therequest was granted at once, be- ing noted at the time in I'nx Bk, While everybody 'vas apparently so serene it appears that in reality the advance was not conceded with any spirit of justice but with the determination to supplant the entire foree, foreman and all as soon as possible. To this end the following notice was putlished: WANTED. 12 carpenters for a long winter's job. Enquire southeast corner Webster and 21st. P, J, Creedon, When a carpenter applied to Mr. Creedon for work he was not informed what he was to do, or if informed was told to say nothing about it. Each man would get a note to Mr, Shears, secretary of the association, instructing him to allow the bearer to deposit his kit of tools in the building and was told to be ready to go to work Monday morning. The carpenters claim that the scheme was gotten up by the architect and Secre- tary Shears, and that the intention was on Monday morning to inform them that their places were all sup- plied and they were not wanted. Some of the new gaug, however, presented their orders to Mr. Couns- man, the foreman, instead of to Mr. Shears, and as he did not understand it he took it to the secretary asking him what authority Mr. Creedon had to hire men to come to work there. The rejly was that he had authority to hire men but had no authority to say anything about it. Mr. Counsman had given him to understand that the men knew all about it, the summing up in the De Grout case will be commenced Monday morning, it * Mirabile Dictu. “Your Spring blossom is a success.

The recent rise in the river did not extend, the cap: tain stated, above Yankton. The Niobrara was pouring a flood into the Big Muddy as the Red Cloud came wh, This steamer handled about 250 tons of freight on her down trip, 150 tons for Fort Yates alone. She also had all the passengers she could carry. On reaching this point, however, most of the freight had been discharged, and only about twenty passengers, a por- tion of whom were for Omaha, re- mained, Almost all of these werce Iadies, Mr. 3. K. Troxel, the agent of the Baker line at Omahs, was on tho As soon as the thirteen carpenters learned what was up they saw into the scheme and yesterday morning all stopped work, including fore- man, Counsman and they have made this statement as a notice to the new carpenters whom they do not believe to be posted as to the true inwardness of the matter. They also say that while there is plenty of work to employ twenty carpenters instead of thirteen, six of thé men were laid off yesterday before it was known that all were going. Child Injured.
