Dr. Miller says that responsible eitizens of Council Bluffs inform him that I am well- known there, and so well-known in my true character that when I appear- ed there on Monday (election day) I received an intimation that it would be a healthy proceeding for me to leave that city; and that I had abund- ant reasons for knowing what that meant, and that within the next hour I reappeared in Omaha to organize riot aud murder in this aty.

True, I have the honor to have once been a citizen ot Council Bluffs. 1 lived there tor about four FOR HIS LIFE. The Kosters Oase Fecures a Jury and the Trial Pro- ceeds Rupdly. At the opening of the trial of Chas. hosters for the murder of Oscar Ham- mer on Christmas morning, it was an- ticipaged that it would take at least a week to get through it. The difficul- ty encountered in securing a jury added to this conviction but the pro- ceedings since our last report indicate that much less than a week will be oc- cupied in the hearing. This change first became apparent Thursday after- noon. The first witness called in the Kos- ters murder trial yesterday was Charles Oarey, who testified that he |h saw Frank Graves and Kosters go out of the saloon door together just previ- ous to the killing, that a moment later he saw Graves standing against the half open door and that a hand and arm were thrust forward from behind years, and in that time I defy any re- sponsible citizen to say that I have been anything but an honorable citi- zen and au advocate of law and order. Dr. Miller, bring on your responsible citizens of Council Blufis and prove that I am a worthless vagabond and a leader in riots and mobs. Prove, if you can, by the responsible citizens of Omaha that have known me for years, thatI am & rioter and an advocate of mobocracy. All of my speeches, ad- vice, and acts have always been on the side of law and order. How difforent has my conduct been to that of the editor of that slimy sheet who, in 1876, called on the democracy of the county to mass and go to Waskington in order to overthrow our government and plunge the country in cwvil stiife, in urder that the divinity he worships (Samuel J. Tilden) might be made president, and that the position for which he would sell his soul, and the souls of all the citizens of Nebraska might be given him (a cabinet oftice). 1 was in Council Bluffs on Monday, but it was never intimated thatit would be beneficial for me to leave. I was there from Sunday afternoon till Tuesday afternoon, and I cireu- lated quite fraely around the city all that time and got the well wishes of all that knew me. Why does the Herald withhold the names of those responsible citizens of Council Bluffs who ordered me to leave the city and said that I am a rioter #and a vagaboud. I would like to know frem Dr. Miller what would have been the state of affairs at the dump had it not been for the almost superhuman eflorts of Knight, Fonda and myself in stauding by the police and the mayor on that occasion. Let him peint 1f he can to a single piece of property or a regular police officer that was injured. Is it a crimeagaimst the laws to march at the head of a body of honest and hard working men who are seeking peaceable means and lawful ef- forts to obtain honest living wages for their labor? Is it a crime for the workingmen of Omaha to peaceably Gravea as though in the act of throw- 1ng, and that Hammer dropped at once to the floor, receiving an injury which caused his death almost instantly. Emanuel Cahn testificd that he was at the house of Nellie King on Capitol avenue, the iiight of the killing; that Kosters came there and had some cou- versation with Geoge Hall, who was also at the house that evening; that Hall went away and came back again, Counsel for the state endeavored to show by this witness that upon his re- turn he brought a message to Kosters to the effe.t that Hammer was dead, but did not succeed in enlisting testi- mony. Miss May Hall, testified that she is now a resident of Council Bluffs; was an inmate of Miss King's house on the night of the murder and saw Kos- ters there: that upon the return ot Hall he stated to Kosters that ‘‘that man” was dead, vsing no name how- ever, Dr. J. H. Peabody, testified thathe conducted the post-mortem examina- tion over the remains of Hamumer; that it was his impression that the wound causing his death had been in- flicted by a pair of knuckles with a knife concealed; he had afterwards thought the injury might have been caused by a blow upon the head with a clubbed pistol, the skull being frac- tured and a very small piece driven into and upon the membrane of the brain; he would not say that the in- jury could not have been iuflicted by a bottle but thought n that cise that the bottle would certainly be broken. A portion of the skull of the deceased, showing the fracture, was produced in evidence and the character of the injury explained by the witness. George Hall testificd that he was at the house of Nellie King on the nigh in question; that he saw Kosters there; that he lett the house and went to Treitschke's saloon and then returned to Miss King's, but was unable to say whether or not he delivered any mes- sage to Kosters as to the result of the injury inflicted upon Hammer. This witness’ recollection of the events of that night was very faint 48 he claimed to have been very much under the in- parade, the streefs of Omaha when violating no law? Dr. Miller eays that the action at the dump was pre- meditated, and was known to Kuight and myself. I want to say to Dr. Miller that when he wrote that he knew that he was writing a monstrcus lie, It was not anticipated that there would be any trouble in passing up Eighth street, and there would not have been had it not been for out- siders and those not interested in the cause, for proof of that is in the fact that half of the procession had passed quietly by the poiut of dis- turbance. Dr. Miller says that threats have been made against lifo and property. Oitizens of Omahs, it is a lie. Oa be- half of the O. L. P. U. Isay that no threats have been made. No property shall bo destroyed, and no person injured, Dr. Miller knows this, but he wants to create an excitement and cause bloodshed. But I say to Dr. Miller and to the B. & M. railroad, that there will be no violence used, no hlood spilt, and they will be dis- appointed. In conclusion I say God speed the cause of the laboring man, and T Iu:ipn that the B. & M. will see the wisdom of giving the laboring man living wages, Ep. Waisu, Pres, 0. L. P. U. of Omaha. Last Night's incermm;mnt. For some time there has not been in Omaha a better variety eutertainment than that given last night at Boyd's opera house by ‘Leavitt's Great Specialty company.” This company having the advantage of being com- posed entirely of stars in their own particular specialty, kept the audience in a roar from eight to eleven o'clock, and the applause at some of the poin's made was deafening. The einging, the danciug and the acting were ex- cellent, and the bycicle riding attract- ed the admiration of all. The cos- Sumes were new, bright and fresh, and the jokes were not generally the stale ones every one has heard worn out. There were some good lo- orl hints, and in the closing firce, ‘“The Two Barneys,” where the whole strength of the company ap- , thero were the best hits at modern slang and estheticism and af- fectation that has lately been pro- duced on the stage here ———es NEVER GIVE UP, depressed spirits, loss of appotite, gen- eral debility, disordered blood, weak constitution, headache, or any disease of a bilious nature, by all means pro. cure a bottle of Electric Bitters.

If you are suffering with low and ) fluence of hquor, which condition he stated was that of the other inmates of the house. E. A. McClure testified that he ar- rested the prisoner about 6 o’clock on the morning of the killing, at his resi- dence on Jackson street; that he said to him, “Charlie, I want you; that man you had the fuss with is dead,” and that thereugon Kosters exclaimed: *‘My God! is that s0?” and came along with him without any further remark. Julius Treitschke testified that he was the proprictor of the saloon in question; that there was a shelf near the door where the killing occurred, upon which were placed bottles of wine which were essy of access; that the morning of the killing ha found a wine bottle sitting on the lunch coun- tor and another lying on the floor not far from the door; that his lunch table was supplied with several butcher knives, one of which he found was missiog when he sold out his place a few weeks later, a portion of which time the saloon had been locked up. Miss Nellie King testified that on the morning of December 25th de- fendaut came to her house between 3 and 4 o'clock; that she saw a kuife there -a butcher knife, - but it was not in tke hands of Kosters; that Frank Young had it when she saw i, and that it was thrown under her bed. Mrs. Hammer, widow of the de ceased, was present in the court room during the afternoon, accompanied by a couple of lady friends. She took a very lively interest in the procoedings, judging by the close attention she manifested, and at one time gave way to her emotions, Most of the tiwme, hewever, she kept her feelings under control and will, doubtless be a regu- lar attendant upon the remainder o tho trial, which will pronably not be 80 | ngthy as has been generally sup- posed it would be, judging by the rapid manner in which the exawina tion was conducted yesteroay. AFTERNOON BESSION, Upon' the court convening in tho afternoon, Miss Lulu Loug was cilled for the state and testified that she was an inmate of Miss King’s house just after the killing of Hammer, and that one day the defendant came there and offered Miss King $35 to leave Omaha and go to Council Bluffs 80 asnot to be hero to testity against him, offer- ing to give Mies Dane $45 if she would go to the Bluffs with Miss King, Elying $10 for each of them at that tme On cross-examination of this wit- ness she was asked if she had not been arrested for stealing $60 from a farmer at Fremont, which she denied, and was then asked if she had not been arrested for grand larceny at Grand Island, which she also an- swered in the negative. H. W, Geiselman testified sub stantially as he did -on the prelimi- nary trial, which testimony has already been published in these columns, Blanche Dane, sworn for the state, testified that she lives at Neliic King's; that she was there the night of the killing and that about 4 o’elock in the morning defendant came to the house for the second time that night, at which time the knife which had been m\'iuu-ly thrown under the bed was ded him, Q. Who did you see in the other ! part of the house | was asked the wit- ness by counsel for the stale. A. {uw Miss Burton and I think Mr. Kostera. Q. When was the next thing said and what was the next word uttered after you went into the room and saw Miss Burton and Mr. Kosters —who spoke next? A. Mr, Kosters told Miss Burton ““I have fired a bottle and if you want to know anything more you ecan go and find out.” This concluded the testimony for the state. TESTIMONY FOR THE DEFENSE, Miss Nellie King was the first wit- ness called on the part of the defense, and testified as follows in answer to questions put by Mr. Cowin: . Did you hear the testimony of Lulu Long, here? A. 1did. Q. On Wednesday evening, or about that time, before you went to the Bluffs, wae Charles Kosters at your wael, A. He was not, Q. Has Charley Kosters been at your house since the night of the tragedy? A. No, air, Q. Has Charley Kosters ever given you any money to go away! A. He never did. Q. Ten dollars for you and ten dol- lara for this other lady? A. He never diu. Cross-examined by Mr, Burnham: Q. Didn’t you go to the Bluffs? A, 1 did. Q. And didn’t you receive money for going! Objected to' as immateriai; overruled; detendant excep.s. A. Idid. Q. How much did you recsive? A. Oaxe hundred dollars, Q. From whuom did you receive it! Objected to as immaterial, Mr. Buruham. Did you say that you didu’t receive any money from Kosters to go to the Bluffa? A. Idid. Q. Do you remember, Mr. Morse, who was with you at the Ogden House at the time you were over there after Mr. Neligh left you? A. Tes sir. Q. Do you remember whether or not you did, at that time and pldce, state to him that you had received money and inducements from Mr., Kosters to leuve this city to avoid tes- tifying against him? A. I did not. Q. Do you swear that you did not? A. Iswear I did not. y Q. This was at the Ogden House on the day that you returned with Mr. Neligh—that is, the last time. I zlxini you came back on Friday? HBA. Yes sir. Q. That was the 3d of February, just before the grand jury met; on that day did you not s.ate at the Og- den house to Mr. Morse that you had received money and inducements from Mr. Kosters to leave and go to Coun- cil Bluffs, A 1 did not. James Whitney, called for the de- fense, testitied that he believed Kos- ters did not have a glove on at the tume of the killing, as he had noticed him wiping the blood from his face just previous to that and after he had been struck by Hammer. The impor- tance of this testimony lies in the fact that Geiselman had testified that just as the bottle was thrown he had “ob- served some one holding on to the side of the door through which the bottle cgne, and that te hand he saw was covered with a dark covered glove. Homer Stull was called for the de- fense tu substaniiate the correctness of a short-hand report he had taken of the testimony at the coroner’s in- qnest and the preliminary examina- tion in this cese, which report has been treely used by defendant’s coun- sel during the progress of the trial. Counsel tor the state objected to the testimony on the ground that the wit- ness was also counsel for the detense, but the witness stating that beforethe testimony was taken it was agreed that it should be used by both parties the court overiuled the objection and the testimony was admitted, Counsel for the defense stated that they had but one witness more to ex- amine, and that as the state had taken less time than was anticipated in the introduction of testimony, they were not prepared to put that witness upon the staud ut this time, and requested the court to give them until this morning, which request was granted and the court, at 3 o’clock, adjourned until this morning. The judge an- nounced that buv a short time would be given to motions this morning, after which thettial would be promptly proceeded with, and that in order to get through to-day he would hold a night session, if necessary, as it was important that the case should be given to the jury this week, if possible’ The state will probably introduce a few witnesses ia rebuttal, among whom will be the Mr. Morse referred to in the testimony of Miss King. Te court room yesterday wascrowded dnring the entire day, even standing room commanding a premium, The arguments to-day will doubtless be of a very interesting character,as counsel on both sides have fully prepared themselves. The opening address will be made by Mr. Bennett for the state. Postoffico Changes in Nebraska, during the week ending March 4, furnished by Wm.
