OLD MAN BENDER BOUND OVER Button, His Oell Mate, Swears Positively to the Oonfession, NOBES AND NYE ON THE STAND, Their Testimony the S8ame as Given by Sutton—The Prisoner Awaits the Action of the Federal Grand Jury, [FROM THE DRE'S LANCOLY BUREAU.] ‘When the examination of Pierson was #esumed Defore Commissioner Billingsly yesterday morning, Messrs, Caldwell and Lansing, attorneys for the defendant, ar- gued at length the question of jurisdic- tion. Mr. Bartiett, the United States at torney, was proceeding against the pris- goner, they said, under section the revised statutes of the United St which vrovides for the prosecution of offenses committed in pls whe United St xelusive jurisdi As the grant by the legislature of Ne- braska to the federal government of the Iand in Omaha on which the postoflice building stands reserves to the s current jurisdietion, the prisoner’s coun- sel argued that the prosecution must fail, as it did not come under the meaning of the scetion quo Mr. Bartlott replied at length, affirming his position, and claiming that the concurrent jurisdiction resorved by the state was only to the ex- tent of serving processcs by state oft on government premises in order they might not b haven of fuge by offenders against state laws, Commissioner Billingsly, at the conclu sion of the argumet, said that while the point raised by Messrs. Lansing and Cald- well was one to matters on which he had doubts, he should, in the intercst of jus- tice, overrule it, and order the exami tion to The first witness called was Frank Sutton of Blair, who testified that he ws sent to the penitentiary in 1882 for bui ;}L.ry, and while there met the prisoner, John Pierson, In 1883 Piorson, finding that he had been a rounder in Omaha, asked him if he knew a woman ther named Anna Hen d he did wlhen Piorson inq whether she had ever told him about his (Piorson’s) killing 1 man there, Sutton safd she had, and Pierson then told him to be careful not to at it. He asked me, said the witness, not to give him away, 1 told Mr. Nobi d said, and soon after- put in the cell with him, One mght Pierson asked me if I had told Nobes about the matter, and I snid no. I asked him how he eame to kill the man, and he said that he was paid $300 by Jack Nugent for doing it. Pierson said the man he killed was Watson B. Smith, and that Nugent's excuse for wanting to et rid of him was that he was fighting the license lnw and ho was afraid the sa- loon men would not gev nscs. Nugent told him where to find Smith and how to Kill him, After shooting Smith, Pierson kaid he went through his pockets and took what valuables he had, and then fired a shot out of Smith's revolver and laid it by the body to make it appear that he killed himself. I told Pierson that he ought to fell Nobes abost tho murder, and then tis Sonseience wouldn't trouble him, He said if I spoke about the matter to him again he would kill me. = Pierson at that timo was acting as if he was badl frightened, walking the floor, and ta ing wildly in his sleep. Soon after thi put in another cell at my own re quest_because I was afraid fo remaim with Pierson. Subsequently Picrson told me that it was George Groom hat did the killing, whilo he stod at the bottom of the stuirs, Groomes and he wero partners in Omaha, he said, where they were engaged in the business of ‘‘catch- inschmupm" n the cross-examination Sutton’s moemory was very bad. Toevery puzzling question his answer was ‘I don’t remem- Der,” while his_crimson face, and hesi- tating manner, led the dlsinterested spec- tators Lo the belief that he was beating about the bush. He said that he first tol¢ Nobes of Pierson’s talk in 1883, and that Nobes instructed him to find out more about it. In pursuance of this he pump- ed_Pierson, obtaining subsequently the information given on the direct examina- tion. In talking with Pierson about the murder Sutton said that the former told him he would kill any man for Afterwards Pierson said he hadn’t shot anybody. Groomes had killed the man while he stood at the bottom of the stairs. _Piorson was put in the bl hole while Sutton was his cellmate, but it was for throwing down his tools and re- fusing to work, At least that was what Pierson said. Sutton swore that he was never offeved any reward or inducement for securing n confession from Pierson, and had only ked the matter of his testimony over with Attorney B: He acknowledged havi Carson of Blai 3 Denver that he was interestod in scouring a confession from Pierson, but he meant by that the punishment of a guilty man. When held down closely by the pris- oner’s counsel Sutton said that he had lied to Pierson in order to extract a con- fession, When 1told him I had seen o ploce in the paper about his Kkilling Smith, of courso it was a lie, Sutton said. My telling him I knew his girl, Anna Henry, was also a lie. The statement that she had told me he had killed a2 man was another lie. When 1said to Pierson that I hadn’t told Nobes what he said to me I got off another lie, Warden Nobes, of the penites j was the second witness. He said that Sutton had told him of Picrson’s stato- ment, and he hud a fictitious article printed on aslip, detailing the alleged ar- rest of Nugent and Groomes in the hopes that Pierson might be induced to confe. In February, 18%, Pierson was brou into my oflice, the warden said, and con- fronted by Mr. Lambertson, whom Lin- troduced #s a Ubited States ofticial, Mr, Lambertson read the newspaper slip to him, and then wo both told him that if he knew anything about the matter he had bettor tell it To the Court—No, sir, nothing was &nid to Pierson about his rights, or the consequences of making a confession.] Continuing, tho warden said: Pierson said he didn't know anything about the wmatter. He then asked Mr. Lambertson to leave the room he wanted to talk with me alone. When Lambertson had gone out Pierson said he didn’t know who he was and didu’t want to talk too frecly before him, Two days later Pierson sent tor me and said that if we had Nugeat and Groowes locked up, and they had squealed, that he might as well suy that Nugeut had offered him money to kil Smith. Piorson then offered to swear to anything we wanted provided we would clear him, Lambertson told him that in such a ease he would have to tell a protty straight story, and asked him how he would describe the l.xlling He said that he would swear that Nugent ga roomes the pistol to kil Smith with, and to satisfy Lambertson, described aceurately the plan of the building, tho position of the body, nature of the wound, ete Cross-examination—1I put Sutton 1n the cell with Pierson to lind out what there was in the story of the murder. 1don't know whether “Sutton knew of the Wat- mith murder at that time or not. fterward Sutton seat for me " ou had told him Nugent had ilwn him an:lul and $300 to kill Smith; that he didn't know Smith, and had killed him merely for the mouey. I told Sutton te get all the informution from Pierson he could. I think [ asked him to draw a confession from Pierson. The day we had the latter in the office we told him we had Nugent and Groomes in jail, and that it would be_best for him to tell all he knew about it. We also told him that it would be bad for him if he didn't. Pierson acted at that time as though he was ly frightened. I told Sutton to say to ierson “that if he didn’t tell what he knew he would get himself into trouble At the afternoon session Mr. Fred Nye, of Omaha, was examined as to an inter yiew had with Pierson at the penitentiar ast full, and his evidence was virtually corroborative of that given by Sutton and Nobes so far as the admissions made by Pierson were concerned. When_the evidenee was all in Commissioner Bill- ingsly held the prisoncr to await the ac tion of the next federal grand jury, and bound Sutton, the princival witiess, over in the sum of $1,000. ‘The most important part of Mr. testimony was relative to the payment | Nugent to_Groomes of $300_about the time of the Smith murder, Mr, Nye swoar ing that the money was handed over by Nugent.

The Eccentricities of Torlonia's Old Age—His Passion for Excavations and Ancient Sculpture, Anne Hampton Brewster, writing from Rome to the Chicago Nows, says: Many incorrect stories are told of the origin of Prince Torlonia, who died lately in Rome. He was one of the greatest mil- lionaries of the world, inherited millions, earned millions and lived to a fine old old age—86. His grandfather was a poor French peasant of Puyde Dorne, who died in abject poverty, His two sons, when mere boys, left alone in the world, wan dered up to , driven there by hunger in 1380.

Jean Torlony opened a bank with the consular money, but always kept the or- iginal sum in mind. So when the reign of terror was over and imperial order s tablished he paid the money to the cm- peror. This simple act of honesty bore compound interest. Napoleon opened a large account at Torlony's alread, perous bank.

She was 8 handsome, tall woman, with n very pale skin, dark hair, and' superb dark eyes. Sho gazed out of the car- riage windows always with an expression of melancholy vacancy. She died abount fourteen years ago. The Prince and Princess Torlonia had two children, both girls—one an idiot, now dead. The other married thirteen years ago one of the sons of Prince Bor- ghese. Prince Torlonia’s one ruling de- sire was that the name Torlonia should be perpetuated. That he had no_son the one bitter disappointment of his Wihen his daughter married young Prince Borghese, Prince Torlonia “stipu- Jated that his son-in-law should take the name of Torlonia and thatno descendant should ever bear the Borghese name.

It was thus he formed the marvelous mu- seum in the Lungara, in whicl celebrated archaic statue of Hesta one of the finest Minervas in the world He was yery unwilling to allow strang or even friends to visit this Lungara mu- suem; only by great favor did he giye cards of entrance, The prince was also most unwilling to show the art treasu of the Torlonia palace, Piazza Venoez where he lived. Some ten fearsago I v very anxious to see the celebrated group of Hercules and Lycas which Cuanovs bad sculptured for his father, and which is in that palace. Luckily a Rus- sian princess whom I knew, was a friend of Prince Torlonia. She introduced him to me. He courteously showed me not only the "\‘rculu\qxrunp, but all the stat- ues, paintings, and beautiful decorations ot tho paluce.

Haves Cotvnry, Neb., March 20.—([Cor- respondence of the BEg.]—The remarka- ble and rapid development of this south- western section of Nebraska is deserving of extended mention. It is barely possi- ble that the cuteness of the distinguished Stinking Water statesman, Laird, has in a measure detracted from the true merits of this region, but as Commissioner Sparks has brought the tricky Jim up standing it is possible that we shall no longer sufter from his cussedness, but will move ahead, as the county deserves. It was the fortune of the writer to en- gage in a conversation with a gentleman on the train several weeks ously enaeavored to cony Laird’s land transactions in this \borhood were inspired by the most delicate sentiments of benevolence and that his land-grabbing feats were not in the interost of self, but were simply the owth of a dosire to grub-stake n rd brother of his and several com- panions, and that the Hon. Jim simply furnished the money, while the other fel lows obtained possession of the land and bled him to the tune of seyveral hundreds of dol and that he had no interest in the land-grab whatever, The version of the Stinking Water land squabbles is be ing v ilated horeabouts by Mr, La ds, but with what eflect 1 am unable to s: With refe prospects w wayw to Hayes county and its have most to do, and must mildly dismiss the Laird business to the care of his_friends.

For reason, evidently inspirs ange men,” the most 2 stories wero told of the drouthy barren ness of this region, and it was kept from settlement until Iast summer, probably from this canse. Early in the spring of dyenturous spirits determined rot hoyond the crescent-sh hilis and” see for a certainty 1f it was @ desert destitute of everything but rattle snakes, cactus and sonp-weed. Thei efforts 'were rewarded by discovering as pretty a region as lays outdoors, After erossing a few hillueks of sand that out- cropped from the inaccessible canons of Blackwood and Stinking Y reks, there burst on the i of billowy prairic interspersed with ponds and lakes, over and around which were roanming vast herds of cattle—a perfect paradise for the free rango peo- ple. Along the ereeks the cattlemen had \omesteaded, timber-claimed and pre mpted all the timber lands, but the 1ons _cropping out_from. the cre s plentifully’ supplied with_timber, b settled the problem of wood, Our adventurers ' returned and laid siegge to the' MeCook | office and proceeded to file homest, on n few quarters of this fayored region. in they were cautioned that the selected uppn was torn with was practically useless for al purposes, and that the cattle would not y that rogion. A'swarm of land shar igred the homesteaders and _pided 1 D a 5 county as erly a couptry”of sand plains and wild-éyed cowboys who shot interloping settlers on sight, - Undeterred by these _dircful propiiccies our triends determined to mako the attempt to setile ther how, and did so. Thir example was fol lowed by scores of others and from the last of February, 1885, to January 1st, 1880, a vast number-of settlers havé come in, and somo of the finest sod crop pro- duets were grown here last year that hag ever been grown anywhere, Lasi fall the herd Iaw was 2277led in spite of the threats 25 {he cattlemen, and today a Tange steer cannot be seen, but in their stend are sod houses, vast reaches of plow broken prairie, corn stubble and every evidence of a thrifty community. The soil is a deep, rich, sandy loam, hich as represented will produce pro- lific erops of anything that can be grown within the limits of the 35th and 45th par- allels, The soil is especially adapted to root crops by its nature, and some of the finest sweet and Irish ]l;u(.:llnes Ihave ever seen were grown here last yenr right from the sod. Corn nnd wheat, vegetables and fruit grow wonderfully and it is seriously to be questioned whether there is a more fertile area in the entire state than exists between the Red Willow and Frenchman. The canyons afford an inexhaustible sup- ply of nitural lime and_marl, which by ry simple P is devoted to plaster- ing the sod houscs, making them neat and tidy in appearance and impe; to moisture. Excellent water can be tained at a depth of one hundred to t hundred feet, wells are casily dug and nearly every settler in this neighborhood has sunk a well during the u and is now abundantly supplicd with this very essential staple, During the excessively cold snap of that seemed alyze the generally this_region was pecul iarly exempt from suffering. There was but very little snow, and live stock re- mained out with impunity the ent winter and_suffered but little in_conse. quence. Most of the settlers had built commodious stables, and during the cold- est days had shelter for their horses and cows, and I question if there is another section of the state that can show stock that has come through the winter more fayorably than here. Now settlors aro pouringin rapidly,and as I write several emigrant wagons are passing the door of my sod shanty en route n few miles north. ~ About one hun- dred families have located in the neigh- horhood since the middle of Februar; and still they come. There is some va Tand in this locality that which has becn faken, of corn and root crops will "be put out this spring hereabouts, Plowing has been going on for about three wecks, The frost is about all out of the ground, and it is now in- splendid condition for working. We are now moving for the establish- ment of a town' in’ this locality, as our nearest postoffice ‘is not less than six miles distant. The settlers of this vicin ity are generally Ame ing principally from Pennsylvs and Hhmois.
