THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: FRIDAY, MARCH 11, 1837 BLOWS THAT BROUGHT BLOOD The Fourth Day of the Trial of John W. Laner. WHAT THE GROCERY CLERK SAW. Matt Gahlon Recalled—Testimony of the llers—Lauer's Display of Al Temper—The Evidenece in Detail. Fourth Day's Proceedings. It was exactly quarter of ten by the big court room clock, when Judge Neville stepped into his scat on the judicial plat- form and ordered the Laucr jury. The members of that body looked a trifle more fatigued than they did Wednesday, though they secemed fairly content with the prospects before them. The two golored jurymen scemed happy, and smile! softly as they rolled into their seaty. The crowd in the lobby was meagre at first, but grew as the trial went on. Sev- eral ladics were among the interested listeners. Lauer was as composed and tranquil as ever. He sat most of the time by Mr. Thurston’s side, giving him sug- gestions as to the questions to be asked of the defendant's witnesses. MATT GAHLON was recalled. He testified on cross-ex- amination that the fire was brighter below than above. It gave out consider- ablo light. This mignt have been caused by some one meddling with the drafts of the stove. “‘Whether any one did meddle with the stove or not I can- not tell,” he said. Here, at the request of Mr. Thurston the witness stretched himself out on th tloor, showing the position 1n which Mrs. Lauer's body lay when he lirst saw it. “How hght ‘was it outside when you got up?”’ was asked of him. L don’t remember exuctly, but I think it was pretty light.” g *‘How far away did you recognize Miss Lauer that night'when you met her out 1 the yard?'" asked General Cowin. “‘About the distunce of half a lot--say sixty feet."” Some further questioning of the wit- ness followed, in which Gahlon exhibited a# remarkable plasticity in the hands of defendant’s counsel. Heseemed anxious to shield Mr. Lauer in more than one way. MR. PETER ILER was called as the next witness. He testi- fied to being called to the Lauer house on the morning of the tragedy. “Did you have any conversation with ih Yes.” “What did he s: ‘‘He said that he had mistaken his wife for a burglar and shot her.* “Did you notice the stove?'’ “Yes. 1 saw it was pretty light. Ispoke about that fact two or three time: 8 to Lauer, ‘I don't how you could h mistaken your wife for a burglar when the room was so light.”” “What did Lauer say?” I don't think he said anything." *‘How was the isinglass on the stove?"’ “Very bright, as though it had not been used much.” “Did you hay him about thisy” “Yes; I got to talking with him again in the parior, and 1 told him that ["did not see that with his wife's long hair and pale complexion, how he could have mis- taken her tor a burglar. He replied that he didn't know whether he w. asleep when he fired. Ho said he some one talking in the dark. It might have been Mrs. Lauer talking to the bird.” “Did yon say anything to Lauer about his carrying a vevolver?” “Ye told him that a man of his temper ought not to carry a revolver— that it wasn't safe. He rather agreed with me, but said that he did not feel safe without one.” Mr. ller here detailed the talk he kad Wwith Lauer about the tume he shot at the burglar, *Did he describe the way the was dressed when he fired at hi *“‘He said that he had on a bl hat.” any further talk with Q\||‘gl:xr ck siouch MRS.

She then wenton tospeak of one of Lauer's “‘picces of outrageous brutality.” I went to her house one morning about 10 o'clock,” she smd, “‘and found her in her bed room crying. A torn Mother Hubbard dress was lying on the floor. Lauer had gone.” “Did she sa nything to you about “What did she say?®" “‘I object to that question, interposed Judge Thurston. “I'll have to rule that out,” said the Judge. ‘The witness then went on to tell how on another occasion she visited Sallie Lauer and found her sitting on the floor darning stockings. “She was looking badly,” said the wi ness, ‘‘Her eyes were very red, as though se had been erying, and her NOSE WAS BLACK AND BLUE; a part of the skin was taken off. “How did Mrs, L: ny she got these bruisest" asked Gen Cowin. “I object,” shouted Mr. Thurston, Judge Neville sustamed the obj and this brauch of the evidenc dropped. Mrs. Havens went on to tell how she had called on h ter after the tirst al- leged burglary, when Lauer had, as he elaimed, fired at n man in the house. Nothing new on this subject was drawn out, HE WAS WIDE AWAKE. Mr. Julius ller was eulle After reciting the story which Lauer had told him the day of the tragedy, he mentioned a statement which Laucr made the night ~ after the funeral. ‘‘My wife and I call on lam that night," “said the witne: “and he told us the same story agai My wife asked him, ‘John, were you wake when you fired?'

Ex-Deputy Sheriff Ewing was placed on the stand. He testified to having gone up o the Lauer house a night or two after he tragedy, with General Cowin and Mr. Estelle. The nioon was very brl;ihl. T‘mnt that period m the fall. Mr " Ewing tostified tht ho had extingalsiiod " tho light in Luauer’s bed roows aund then lald down on the bed in_about the sa m;mou u8 Lauer had when he killed his wife. General Cowin was standing ten or fifteen feet away—beyond the folding doors"—he said, ‘“‘and 1 could DISTINGUISH 118 FEATURES well by the light of the stove. I could also see other article, such as chairs, in the room. seneral Cowin, standing at the same distance, held up a newspaper, and [ could ily read the large adver- tising print.” “How was the isin ‘‘Very clean and gave out a good light. Mr. Ewing was then cross-examined by Judge Savage about the condition of the blinds that night,whether they were open or shut. He could not speak positivel y on this topie. SHE WAS STILL ALIVE Mr. C. A. Baldwin was called to the witness stand. He testified to having gone up to Lauer’s house about 10:30 on the morning of the tragedy. He was present at the Iast part ot the coroner's inquest. Mr. Lauer had reeited to him, after the_inquest, his story of the occur- rence. This Mr. Baldwin repeated. Lauer said to me,” he testified, just as soon as he fired he got up and saw that he had shot his wife, ‘I found her still breathing,’ he told me, ‘but I thought that she was dying, or would die, anyway.” Then L said to him: *You lifted her up in your arms and put ¢ bed, did you not?’ ' he replied, * I R FOR THE CORONER.' ted this testimony in and a thrill as he uttered ss in the stove?" ght. The stove ran through the audie the words: *“1 left her for the coroner.” Lauer glanced uneasily about him, and seemed more perturbed than he has been any time yet, The prosceution looked iumphant. M Idwin was subjected to a rigid cross examination, but his testimony could not be shaken. Benson L. Benson, a drive rod & Co., grocers, was L on the stund. He testified that on one oceasion, while the Lauers were hving at Dau- roghty's house on_ South S iteenth street, he noticed Mrs. L. with a black nd much bruised cheek. or Gieo, Dennis, 1n member of the coroner’s '{" y in the case, was the next witness.

Mr. Baldwin him o lifted her and laid her on the bed, didn’t you?' He said, “No, I let her lay until the coroner came.” After Major Dennis had concluded his for Heim- promptly frownes and sabsided. Mrs. Goetschius further testified that Lauer said he wanted Sallie buried on Sunday. Witness remarked that that was hurrying her out of the world and Lauer replied that he wanted her buried on the Sabbath, because his mother had been buried on that day. Mrs. J. W. Tler was recalled and in answer to a question from Gen. Cowin said that she desired to change a portion of her testimony made on cross-exa; ion. “When Lauer bade me good-bye aid “he remarked—'If I don't see again, good-bye.’ He also said on the morning of the occurrence that the coroner’s inquest was all a farce.” On cross-examination by Mr. Thurston, Mrs. Iler admitted that she thought at the time that Luurer meant he might be Iynched, N.J. Burnham, the next witness testi- fied that on the night of thetragedy he got up about 1 or 2 o'clock, went to the window and saw the moon shining brightly. 81t was one of the brightest mq'iu.- ever saw,” he said. Mr Thurston cross-cxamined him. “Mr. Burnham,” he asked, “you got home that night, did you?" “Yes, sir,” replied the witness. *‘Was the moon foll?” “‘Pretty near it.” “‘Were there any spots on it?" I guess the spots were thereall right.” “Mr. Burnham were you full?"’ *Oh,” replied the ‘witness langh, “I guess not.” During this bit of humorous cross-ex- amination Lauer and his sister smiled quietly, The aundience laughed, urnham blush lown by his associates with a cd a8 to the riven as elapsing ween the moment he lired and the moment he jumped tothe floor. He said this period was hardly suflicient to count six in—a very short time. Henry Voss, the architect, was recalled and testified to the location of the bullet hole on the casement which Luauer had made when he fired at_the first burglar, as he claimed. Voss alsotestified to a re- mark made by Lauer when he went to the latter's house ake measurements, Lauer asked hi the public senti- ment on the affair was, and witness re- plied that he hadn’t paid much attention to the matter. *‘Lauer then remarked,” said Mr. Voss, “that the seandal was all and that that for the whole row.” The South Omaha Land company have appointed O, B, Ma; le agent for the sale of their lots, Il show the prop- erty and_furnish all desired information testimony, the court took a recess until 2 o’clock.

A petition was presented from the Paxton-ller et al. syndicate asking per- mission to mine for coal under the county poor farm. The matter was re- ferred to General Cowin, who gave it as his opinion that the commissioners h no right to grant such privileges, exc by a vote of the people in the same man- ner as a sale of property is allowed.

In this connection it may be well to lay bare the animus of the attacks which are being mada on Mr. Prince in a cer- tain quarter. They have been instigated, from beginning o end, by a clique of foot runners in this ecity. These men were refused the use of the bicyele track by the expoftion directors (by Mr. Prince’s adviee), for the purpose of traming. They are consequently angry.
