Witness my hand and seal at Omaha, this 11th day of December, i Eiyur D, Frask, United States Commussioner for the Dis- trict of Nebraska, The arrest was made in the presence of about & dozen persons, inclading United States District Attorney Lambertson, Deputy Marshal Ball, Detective Hazen, United States Commissioner Frank and a representative of Thx Brk, The man ar- rested was standing near the United States clerk’s dex’r, talking to Mr, Frank at the time. He wora a alouch black hat, dark overcoat, weighs abont 150 pounds snd bas a full dark beard. As Marshal Bierbower approached him and said: “‘Mr. Arndt, T have a paper here for you,” Arndt quickly turned and said, “What isit? A warrant?” The Marshal replied in the aftirmative, and, after reading itto Arndt, asked him if he had auythiog to say in answer to the charge, The prikoner de- nied the offense alleged in the warrant, and asked for his coun-el, Redick & Red- ick, who were seut for. The messenger returned soon, and stated that the attor. neys were both out of their office, Arndt then offered to give his recognizance to ap- pear in the morn: but thut was refused, and he was accordingly taken to jail. “I'he arrested man, Auvgust Arntt, w a Prussian, about fifty years old, and has long heen a resident of this state, During aportion of this time, he has lived in Omaha, and he built the 16th street bridge about ten years sgo, ¥.om Omaha he went to Saunders county, and has resided there until within the t two months, since which time he cla to lave gained o residence at Cresco, lowa, He has been a party in an ej.ctment suit of the Union Pacific company, which was begun about. threo years ngo. In 1879 Arndt pre- empted 160 acres of 1and, which lies with- in what is known as the Union Pacific grant, under the Homestead act. Three years ago the company brought an eject- ment suit against him, on which Arndt defended and at the same time commenced An equity suit agaivst the company, This case is of considerable importance, as it is best ome of many other suits brought agaiust homestoaders who Tdn-empwd lands at the same time Arndt did, HEMARKAR BUENE, P Yeiterday morning in _the court room, when the case of the Union Pacific vs. August Arndt was c«lle), Judge Dundy said he had a tatement tomake: He had learned from credible authorities that the defendant had wade threats against his life in event of an unfavorable decision to the latter, and that he did not know whether the attorneys would consider him compe'ent to hear the case. He had no especial desire, he added, to follow in the footsteps of the late clerk of the court. Mr, Poppleton for the company . said ho had confid nce in the intesrity and fair- ness of the eomrt, and Mr, Redick sni that ho was willing the judge should try the case, At this juncture Arndt, who been in the rear of the court-room, forward, and advancing to the judicial bench, made an emphatic and ‘earnest deninf of the statement Dy the judge, and od for an investigation, Judge Dundy acoordingly heard the mo- had killed during storm last spring by a seo- | tion for a new trial (ng ound of newly dis- tion of eidewalk falling upon him and The ac- drowning him in a pond of water. cident ‘occurred on Fourteenth streef, which was being graded, and the sidewalks had been torn up aud piled edgeways against the fence. young Copley as he was running past. ———— . — Our Experience from Many.

FROM THIS TRSTIMONY it is claimed that it has been shown that on the 18th of September last Mrs, Mary Z, Arndt, the prisoner’s wife, registered at the Green Tree hous , on Touth atreet, in this oltg.“lmm Cresco, Towa, On the 24th of ptember Arndt went to the same house and alse secured board, He remalned there until October 10th, when he notified the proprietor that Le would be absent fow duys, He cameback on States of Anerica for the district of Ne-| o Arndt left the (ireen Tres House, until Inst night his wife has known nothing his whereabonts and he has not provided for her maintenance, THE MESHES Tabin, proprictor of the Green Tree, states that on or about the seventh «f No- vember, threo days after the murder of Col, 8mith, Arndt came to him and said that he s\n..!u was_suspected of the crime, and he wanted Tobin to remember that he had b out of town njon that 4 not stopped at the hotel that hin referred to his books Arndt's statement as to that matter, but thought no more of it, and therefore did not mention this occurrence to any oue. 1 he testimony presented tothe grand jury is claimed_to be to the effect that Arndt's wife tol 1 a detective that her hus. band was away for two or three days about November 1st; that he appeared at the hotel on the night of the 4th, but that he camse in, evidently in & great haste, and went out again, and that she did not see day end b night. T and confirmed him for & week fterwards, What he was downg durivg this week or whether ho was in o out of the city she did not know. EGRD TDENTIFICATION, It is al=o claimed to have been discover- ed that Arnit was in David City on the third of November, and came to Omahn ni ht or the following morning. on with thin fact the stal o have been made by his wife as lius some bearing upon the f the most important wite nesses hefore the grand jury was Willis Vatew, the grocer. It is told thit he tes. tified that he saw & man resembling Arndt standing near the postoffice corner about ten o'elock on the night of the 4th, in earnest conversation with another ma claimed to be a resident of this city the men reparated, one guing into the jostoffice building, A young man in ates’ employ as bookkeeper, is also allog- ed to have testified that, as he was leaving th store, about 11 o'clock, he raw a man hurriedly cross Fifteenth stroet and go down Dodgs street, passing him on the run, and that the prisoner resembles that individual, both as to sizs and dress, AT THE HUDSON RIVER H0 After leaving the Green Tree house on November 28th, it is not known, except to the detectives who were on Arndt's track, where the latter stopped. A reporter of Titx Ber, however, found, upon inesti- st evering, that Arnat secured d at the Hudson River house on De. cember 2d, and has mince continued to 1o ge and take his meals there. The pro- prietor of the Hudson River hou e states that Arndt came to] him, stating that he had an important suit pending in the United States court which would doubtless keep him in the city several weeks, and that he would th refore like to necure board at weekly rates, This was arranged, Arndt paying for his first week’s board. Since then he has paid uothing, but has promised to do 5o as seon as he could secure money coming to him from vroperty he claimed to oan in Iowa. Af- ter Arndt had be n at the Hudson River house & day or two, Mr. Giceen, the pro- prietor, states that he observed that his gu-st's actions were peceliar, and he no- ticed that whenever the Smith murder was brought up in conversation in the office Arndt took aremarkalle interest therein and usually played a prominent part in the conversation; that he invaria. bly cantended that Col. Smith committed suicide by reason of irregularit-es of his books, which were not generally known and which-would prove him an embezzler, During such discussions Mr. Green states that Arndt wonld become intensely ex- cited if the wuicide theory wasdisputed, and that the latter had frequently shown, by illutrative gestures, how the dead of- ficial could have blown out his own lrains, A boarder at the Hudson River house, Mr, L. Gunnell, to THe T CONFIRMED TIENE case, ( of the proprietor, saying that in his presenco.

B th of the above gentlemen interviewed stated that THE WATER WORKS The Consulting Enginesr Thinks Omahn is Supplied With First Class Set Mr. D, Cook, the consulting engineer of the Omaha water works, left the city for erday, but before leaving the enst ye made a state garding the n to Omah to t to Tie Bee reporter re. v works he had been; called spect. Mr. Cook #sid he had been called here in consul ation by the water works com pany, and that he found the works, sub- stantially, In as good » condition as could have been expocted. When entirely com- pleted Omahs will have justasgood a system of water works as any city on the 1 | continent of thro: times her populaticn. The greatest pr blem in the construc- tion of these works was whether the Mis- souri river water could be clarified. The wettling basins were an_experiment which has resulted in a gratifying success, The quality of the water 18 unexcelled by any to be found elsewhere, and by this time the people must be satisfied that it is as clear as any water supplied by public works can be. The e i onsiderible work yet to be done before the works can be conwidered entirely completed, The storage reser- voirs will have to be lined with hard brick t, and the embaukments must y strengthened. This o nnot be done until spring, When these e1voirs are completed they will cive water pressure en ugh to throw streams over any buildi g in the city, except the high ecliool. Ihere were only three feet of water _in the reserveir yesterday when the tests wire made and e ght streams of water were thrown over one hundred feet hizh. That stows what may be expected when the reservuirs are fu l, "T'he company is now at considerable dis- advantage in |-um{a|ng, because the Mis. ouri river is very low, within one foot of the lowest water mark ever known. The wuction pipes must be lowered. There is hing aurprising about the bursting of the water mains. That happens every- where where new works ar2 put in. The ipss are much heavier and generally lrflor than thoss prop #ed by Holly and will erve the purpose if the city grows and extensions have to be made. o direct pressure tests were made when the consumers were shut off they could throw streams two hundred feet hgh, but such demonstrations x1e of no use whatever, What the peop's want and Arndt was in an e:pecially excited frame of mind no further back than Wednesday morning while talking about the trm and had reiterated his belief in the sul PECULIAR ACTIONS. Tt i alleged by the detectives who have been following ‘Arndt for the last four wocks that during all of that time his be- havior has been most eccentric and peculiar, Last evening a Bke reporter was in the vicinity of Arndt from about 7 o'elock nntil his arrest. He left the Hud. son River Honse about that hourand went direct to the United Stites building. He went up stairs to the top story, where the aignul service office is located, pushed the door partly open snd then turned and went immediately back down stairs, and direct to the office of Redick & Redick, who are bis attorneys in the suit now peudinz, He remained there about an _hour returned directly to the United States building, where he was ar. rested. PAST LIFE, The most authentic facts that can be gained concerning Arndt's past history are from n own statements, He has’ told that he lett Prussia for political reasons and came to this country, where he mar- ried. His wife dying, about five years ago ho again married his present wife, who was alsoa widow andwhose husband was named Kdwards. By her first husband's death the present Mrs Atelbitobtainiad Wboen K phl mtets figar Cresco, lowa. She gave Arndt power of attorney over this property, and <he now alleges that he has used up most of it in his legal contests. She complains bitter] of his treatment of her of late and e:pocinf: 1y of the recent desertisn, What to-day will bring forth in this strangely complicated and exceedingly in- teresting case, it is difficult to say. The officers of the court, however, intimate that Arndt will surely be indicted and that the arrest of another party is immioent. Jacob Martzoff, Lancaster, N.
