THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: TUESDAY, N VEM.’BER 1, 1887 A BURGLAR AND OUTRAGER. A Desperate Villain Breaks Into a House and AWaults a Girl THE VIOTIM PROSTRATED. fon Pacific Switchmen Looking for Bosses' Scalps—Another Morning Fire—Kiley Likely to Die— Other City News, A Bold and Villainous Outrage. A dastardly outrage was committed at the private boarding house kept by Mrs, Jake Schreiner, 1418 Chicago street, at half past 8 o'clock yesterday morning. Two of the domes- tics, Nellie Hoskins and Minnie Chrisjohnson occupy a room on the ground floor in the rear of the house, and the ieather be- ing somewhat sultry, and their room close, they left the back window hoisted. At the hour above mentioned, Minnie, who occupied the same bed with Nellie, and was also on the outside, was awakened by some onc touching her on the arm. She sat up in bed, only to see the figure of a than in front of her, and holding a revolver at her head. He ord her to lie down and keep still, threat- ening to kill her if she made any outer attempt to alarm the house. She, in hel treme fright, obeyed the ruffian, who then turned’ to the window, and ina subdued voice called: “Keep a sharp lookout there, pard, until I am through, then you can come in,” thus indicatiug that there were two of the fiends.” The man in the room then ordered Minni to awake her friend, which she did, and tell- ing her not to stir on penalty of having her throat cut, the brute got_into bed with the two girls. ' He immediately turned his atten- tion to Nellie, and grasping her by the throat the two began to_strugele. It was at this eritical juncture that Minnie sprang from the bed, and despite the, fact that she thoughtshe must encounter a second villian in_the yard, she sprang from the window. To her delight there waus no man there, and hurrying to the front of the house she screamed to Mrs, Schreiner in her room above, and_quickly succeeded in arousing the house. She wi almost stupeficd with fear, but gave the ge tlemen boarders to understand that there was & man in her room, and thither they rushed togethe They quickly burst in the door but the scoundrel had fled, leaving the outraged girl lying in- aansible neross the bed. Search was at once instivated about the premises but no clue to the man was found, Kate We another domestic hia uy thi her room above and she swia man run across the yard and about the time Miunic's piercing ke upon the air from in front of the house, he obtained a tolerably fair look at the mis- ereant, and when the police, who had imme- diately been sent for arrived, gave them a description which an hour later led to the arrest of Pat Rooney, a young hoodlum of the toughest make. He was arvested in a saloon near the corner of Kleventh and Chicago streets, and his innocence was taken to Mrs, Schreiner’s and con fronted with Mrs. Welch, The latter, while she was almost certain, could not be positive, that he was the man.

The dissatisfaction among the switchmen employed in the Union Pacific upper and lower yards promises to result in a general strike of the men employed in all the yards unless the demands of Grand Master James L. Monaghan, in behalf of the Switchmen’s Mutual Aid society, are not complied with, The presentation of their grievances was yesterday before Mr, Blickens- , superintendent of the Nebraska di- wvision of the Union Pacific and Mr. McClint- ock, terminal agent of the B, & M. lines. A large number of witnesses testiticd and Mr. Hlickensderfer reserved decision until the return of Superintendent Dickenson, which expected some time during the bresent and Master Monaghan was seen at the Windsor hotel and asked concerning the trouble. He said: “The trouble 18 not of recent origin, It began 8010 months ago when the Switchmen's Mutual Aid society pxpelled P. H, Mechan, one of the head ofti- cers of the lodge. He was charged with crookedness, and it was proven to my mind that he had been guilty of appropriating money belonging to the order. Mechan swore vengeance, and openly stated that he would some time hold a position in the Union Pa- cific yards that would enable him to put his foot on the neck of every n belongin; R iy ALl time The upper_yards were under the charge of Yardmaster and the lower one of Yardmaster . These men were and are common drunkards, and have been noted for their outrageous treatment of the men under them. Old, ex- perienced and steady switchmen have been turned out and their places supplied by ported meng favorites of the two tyrannice yard masters. Most of them were drinking men, and utt incapable of performing the duties to which they were assigned. Meenan then bogan training with these men,aud soon ‘stood in solid.’ **Soon it was given out that Meechan had been appointed foreman in the lower yards, and he procecded atonce to make good his threats of revenge against the union men. .\ v indignity that he could think of he heaped upon them, and while drunk, which was often,his abuse was simply outrageous. Tighe, in the meantime, rendered valuable assistance in heiping Mechan in his revenge, and several old and trusted m were sum- marily discharged. This man Tighe is a con- firmed drunkard, and was discharged from the Santa Vards at Kansas City for drunkenness and neglect of duty. “All of these charges were substantiate twer to - thirty witnesses the officers of the road, and w that our demand, viz, the release of M and Tighe from the yards—will be If not there will undoubtedly be a general strike. We dow't care to what oth department they are assizned, but we won't have them in the yards if we can help it, Davis resigned simply be- cause he dare not face an_investigation and this he told me himself. The constitution of our order is very conservative and especially provides against the admitting to membership of drunkards or criminals.

At a mecting of the Omahy branch of the Puget Sound co-operative colony ot their hall Sunday afternoon, the question of co- operation as applied to production was ably discussed by J.

She sets forth in her complaint that she was in_lawful possession of the house No. 814 North Fourteenth street on the first of last September; that she was an invalid and was compelled to keep to her bed the greater part of the time. On the day in question she alloges that she had just arisen from her bed when twelve men and twvo express wagons in the employ of Samuel D. Mercer, drew up _in front of her ~ house.
