The Murder. ‘The murder of young Quinlan was, yesterday morning, the all engrossing subject of discnssion on the streets. Hundreds of people hung around the coroner’s office, and many more vis- ited the scene where the young man lost hislife. Among the latter were a corps of detectives, policemen, the coroner and a host of reporters. Every circumstance of the tragedy was considered, and the detectives finally concluded that the y could locate the murderer. ‘The coroner and a Bek reporter, followed out Cum ings' story given which has been traced theflight of the murderer by his foot-prints west on Elm street, thence along Twenticth street, and finally son ice into the woods, when suddenly s disappeared, Yesterday morning Dr. Rebert held a Post-inortem examination on the remains of youngQuinlan at Coroner Drexel’s.

When mterviewed by a reporter to-day, both men denied knowing anything about the crime, and said tha at they were not near |;unl 's park last night. They admitted, however, that they had a grudge against the Spoerl purk toughs, who had attacked and “done them up” a short time ago. About 2 o’clock yesterday afternoon the polico arrested a~ young German who gave his name as’ August Schell, He was taken into a cell by Officer Me- Donald and Captain Cormack, who questioned him closely. He admitted being in the party which at- tacked Quinlan and his friends and said that he saw the man who fired the fatal shot. ‘This man’s name he gave as Wil- liam Volmar, who works in Howell’s lumber yal Caught. Nolmar was arrested yesterday after- noon, He confessed and pleads self- defense. The Inquest, The inquest over the remuins of Den- nis Quinlan was held yesterday after- noon by Coroner Drexel in the office of County Attorney Simeral. Prof. Bruner and S. Kahn were substituted for W. C, Gregory and Thomas Cormick. The first witness was Dr. Rebert, who made the post-mortem examination. His testimony in the main was as outlined in yesterday’s Bee. The wound was the cause of the man’s death. Charles Hoye was next examined: I live at Eighteenth and Vinton; was in Mueller’s saloon at 11 o'clock last night; heard a fuss among the boys. There were three Germans together. One was a tall, light man; the second and third were heavy-set n They were quar- reling with Quinlan. Two of these went out. Quinlan and others went out after them. One of the latter said ‘‘Let's go down to Jones'.”’ They went to Jones’. 1 stood at the corner of Eighteenth and Vinton. I saw the pistol flash and Quin- lan fall. After the shot was fired I heard somebody say: “Give it to him aga saw somebody run away on the Bellevue road; never saw the Germans before. Quinlan was a steady-working man. He didn’t drink. 1 played base “ball with Quinlan on the bottoms in the afternoon; left the bottoms at 6 o'clock; saw him after supper, at 9 c’clock; heard Davy Shanahan say to Quinlan: “Don't have any fuss with these men.” Quinlan then desisted and every body went and enjoyed him- self as before the quarrel. Joseph Gardner: Was at Mueller’s hall until after 11 o’clock Sunday night. and three Germans. One was tall wi curly hair and stiff hat. Another heavy set with a slouch hat and a black suit of clothes. Theother I didn't notice because he didn't take any part in the fuss. The firat two disturbed the dance by running into every body. Quinlan asked them to desist. The heavy set man said he eould do Quinlan up. Quin- lan replied that he couldn’t dot, neither could the two with him. Ho then threw away his cane and squared off, though he was smiling at the time. I afterwards saw the heavy set one draw a revolver and heard him say “‘we’ll show these —— — ——of Irish what we can do for them " When this took pla Quinlan was at the other end of the hall. = When the dance was over, a large crowd rushed, as it always does, to the garden, I went out through the window. thought there was a row in the garden I heard one of the Germans outside say, “let these -come out flml we'll show what w 1 do with them.'

Bertha Mueller, daughter of the hail vroprietor: Do not know Quinlan. There were nine men together at the dance and I heard one man say: “Give it to him.’ I then separated them. 1 spoke in Eng- lish. There were no Germans in the crowd. Fred Mucller, owner of the hall in which the fuss took place: I was in the garden about the time of the fuss, I then went into the hall, and my daughter told me there were some per- sons who were going to have a_ fuss, and one of them had said “‘Give 1t to him.”’ When I resched the bar, the crowd seat- tered.

Mrs,Henshaw, A COAL DISCOVERY, Detalls of a New and lmportant Find. A most important discovery has been made on the line of the B. & M. about two miles southeast of South Omala, be- tween this city end Bellevue, It is noth- ing more nor less than the discovery of a coal vein exposed to the surface, and which, with a little working, can be made to develope richly. The matter was kept very quiet until to-day, when specimens of the coal were brought to the city and submitted to experts, who unhesitatingly pronounced them genuine ‘“‘black dia- monds,” The vein runs downward from an opening in the hillside by the B. & M. track. An excavation was made into the bank, whereupon the vein, about ten inches in thickness, was laid bare. Above it was a layer of shell and gravel, and over that a tick layerof rock. The latter isa valuable feature of the tind, inas- much as when the vein is developed, natural roof will be already furnished. An expert who h 4 opened to nl depth 1t will be found to merease in thickness, so as to richly repay mining. The specimens of coal which were taken out by Mr. Oscar King, near whose father’s farmthe find has been made, were submitted yesterday to rep- resentatives of four different coal com- panies in the city. Without exeeption allof them pronounced the specimens samples of genuine coal. Mr. J. D. Creighton, of the Creighton-ller mine also ln\mwvtul the samples, d that they were undoubtedly bituminous coal. Steps will be taken to develove the vein at once, 1n order that its full value may be discovered, The theory is now held that a rich layer of coul underlies this entire county, oreven the eastern part of the state, being, perhaps, a continuation of the Town conl beds. Itis this theory upon which the Creighton-ller wining syndi- cate is working. If it proves thc correct one, the outcome will be a tremendous boom for Omaha. Meanwhile the work of investigation is being quictly prose- cuted. Work on the shaft near Third and Pierce streets, and the one at South Omaha is progressing, and so far the ro- sult has been most encouraging. Mr. P. E. lier said to- that machinery had been ordered for s new shaft, and would arrive here the last of this week. He would not say where the shaft \\nulu be sunk, as the syndieate does to disclose fully its plans at present. No Moty Wil be spured to filly and finally determine the correctness of the theor) that immense coal beds underlic Omaha and the surrounding country. For Sale.

Saturday morning there arrived in Omaha an old gentleman who registered at the Germania hotel on South Tenth street as Joel Stilley, from Ohio. Mr. Stilley reported to the police that he wa in search of a wife who had eloped from him last summer in company with a younger and more attractive man, The case was put into the hands of Oflicer Haze, who with Robbins yesterday located the run y couple, 'The story a8 told by Mr. Stilley, who is an old manof about sev- enty-tive years is that he wasafarmer at North Liberty, Ohio. He widower and had several grown-up children. Ten years ago, his children having left the paternal roof to do for themselves, the old gentlem: ')md court to a buxom, ds red, dark-eyed widow of about thirty years who the old man thought would prove a suitable companion for him in his dwlmin-,: years. He finaily married | period everything mo ¥ antly enough, He was very fond of his wifé, bought her a horse and_buggy and allowed her a great deal of liberty. But culnl:liu:llimw finally arose.” Tl children ~ feared that the gentleman, who was comfo; the world's goods, would gi cumulations to the new wife and th would get little if any of the property. Mrs, Stilley feared that the children would influence the old man to cut her off with a trifle. Hence there was trouble, So matters dnfted along until about a year ago. Then thuu appeared upon. the 1 Frank Ruble Mrs. Adeline rmerly lived in ti neighborhood and h old home from Omaha. The cousins s became intimate, went bugey riding and visiting often and sought amu: nt to the exclusion of the husband. st July i as to be in Mount Vernon, miles from the Stilley Mrs. Stilley coaxed her to take her to show. They drove into ‘“5 Vernon at noon on the day of the ¢ cus, Mrs. Stilley told the old gentleman to hitch and fe th rily horse while she went shopping. The old man obe- diently complied. The woman met Ruble and they drove back to the home- stead, packed up such effects as they could ‘convenientiy carry, the woman taking about $1,200 of the old man’'s y, and together she and Ruble went railrond station and unknown. After the old mun finally thought that as™ Ruble had lived in Omaba he might return here and so he came to this city, Officer | 2 began his search upon & very slight clue, but yesterday located the couple at 1711 ‘south xteenth street, near the Presbyterian Ruble and the woman came last fall and Ruble has been driving 10 of the Thirtecuth street It appears that about =a o Ruble, who has a wife and ildren, sent his wifo to her parents’ home in Michigan, announcing his n- tention of leaving the eity for nowhere in particular. Before the separation took place he securcd 500 from his wife, which he induced her to procure from her par- ents, 1t is said that Mrs, Stilley and Ruble had been in correspondence for some time and I t the elope- ment was long pre . In com- pany with Oflicer 1 snllw visited the woman yesterday. The old man was much affected by the iew and be- sought her to return, She flatly refused.
