THE OMAHA DAILY BEE:: SATURDAY, MARCH 17, 1888, PROVES A PECULIAR CASE. Todson, the Incomprehensible, Turns Up in Kansas Oity. HIS FORGERY ON AN IOWA FIRM. A Des'iinte Family—A Contractors’ Combine—Lutz Acquitted of Mur- der—Ontting the Lots--Other) City News. Todson Again. t The Bee of Thursday contained a chapter on the mysterious disappearance of the young man Todson, who, before going away had favored people with whom he had been deal ing with a variety of checks which were not worth the paper upon which they were made. It was inadvertently ‘stated, however, that the bank with which Todson nad attempted one of his spurious deals was the First Na- tional. Later develepments show, however, that such was not the case and that the young man had selected the Citizens’ bank on Cum- ing street for his work. He started in his erratic business as early as Sunday last when upon a check for §10 he secured that amount }Imrll cash from his employer. Louis John- 2420 Cuming, on the ground bank had his mone and of course could mot pay out ar on that day. Early in the week h consummated his purchase of Mr. Johnson's store but had previously deposited with the bank mentioned a check rurlln 000, purported to have been made by W, Yunk & Co., Clinton, Ia. Johnson, who (\ sold out his store, was anxious to get his money, which was represented by a check for §2,600 given him by Todson. Accordingly he presented his check to the Citizens' bank, and Mr. Tem- leton, of that institution, said thav Todson ad phwml the Yunk check with them only for collection aud that he had not yet had time to hear from the bank on which it was made, namely the First National of Clinton, Ia. A Mr. Peterson, father-in-law of John- 80m, was present during the interview and was told by Mr. Templeton that if he would indorse the Yunk check, which had already been indorsed by Todson, he(Templeton) would advance Johnson $3000 on the check. This was offered because of Mr. Peterson’'s known responsibility, and not because of any of Todson’s representa- tions. Mr. Peterson refused to endorse the check. Later the Citizens’ bank telegraphed the First National bank in Clinton aud asked if the latter would honor a check for £10,000 on W.J. Young & Co. At the place men- tioned there is a well-known lumber firm of that name, who are quoted by Bradstreets at about $3,000,000. [t was undoubtedly this Tcdson had in_his mind, although itten “W. J. Younk & Co.,” a ituted for the letter “g" In the name. The bank answered the Citizens® to the effect that ‘W. J. Young & Co. had no such check out. This shows that the young man was guilty of fory It was one of the first steps ‘which legto his discove Then the knowl- edge of tfie checks he h ven to a number of merchantg circulated, the total of those known amounting to £4,500. With these had furnished his house in beautiful st and lost mght L d his little bride were have been married and to take possession of the same, but before the time to do so ar- rived, the pived m hants had reclaimed every article they had delivered, the only ex- ception being Erickson, the Sixteenth street jeweler, who is missing a watch which Tod- son took with him. It was erron ously stated that Todson had pur- chased quite an amount of jewelry which he had bestowed upon his intended bride, but that report was unfounded. He bought no jewelry and his weeping fiance is annoyed over the aspersion which has boen (‘;unl'both upon herself and her intended hus- nnd. ‘When it was discovers check was a fraud, parties here telegraphed to Todson’s mother in Clinton and asked if it were true that money had been left her son. She replied she had no money and none had been promised her son. This settled the case that the young man was either a knave ora fool. Buthis little intended wifc was seen by a BEE reporter yesterday and maintained that Todson is neithe: one nor he other. When first, seen by the Bee man she was looking out of one of the east windows of her present residenco as if to descern her approaching lover. There were tears in her eyes, and when the scribe met her in her parlor in tho presence of her mother and a_couple of lady friends, she was really an object of pity and sympathotic admiration, Her name, at her request, is withheld. said she had known Todson for sever: months and did not know how long she had been engaged to him to be married.

How the Paving Price Is to Be Bullea By Councilmen and Contractors. A B reporter made inquiry at the offico of the board of public works yesterday to accertain in what respects the specifications for paving differed from those of last year, 88 it is now claimed by councilmen. The difference was shown to be that here- after contructors will be ex- pected to cousider in their bids the removal of the earth necessary to lay down pavement, for which no charge must be made on graded streets, Heretofore, this work has required the allowence of a great amount of extras, and it seems to be the de- sire of the board to do away with these, Another difference is that hereafter three gallons of coal tar piteh will be required to square yard instead of but two gallous as heretofore on cedar block pavement. This change will cause an extra expense of about eight to ten cents per square yard These, it is claimed, are the facts which induce certain members of the council to talk about the increased cost of paving, the effect of which will be to impel coutractors to Pput in only high bids. On next Tuesday there will be an election to decide whether o not $100,000 sewer bonds and §100,000 bonds for paving in froat of unassessed property shall be issued, The proportion of paving in froat of private pr orty ag compared with that of inte ections is as five to one, so that there will this year be laid about 500,000 worth of paving. As this, if there be but one kind of paving used, must be let to ono man or firm, there is a likelihood of being a grand combine of contractors orelse one man tak- ing the job and with a knowledge of the lack of financial backing of others, placing his WA Eieh 45ips uoon his work, THE BOARD MEETING A 41t all comes from the contrad they're hedging. 1t may be all right on their puriy but we shouldn’t listen. They intend to raise their bids this summer aud want <0 have a reason for doing it. They waut to lay it off ou some one and have closen Till on and 1 as victims, As 8 matter of faot the oniy (norease in cost will be about a gallon of tar or 10 cents per 2quare yard.” The speaker was Chairman Balcombe, £nd the listeners were his fellow members oayne and Heimrod. Ex Chairman Creigh ton was also there, and occasionally had a word to say on the' subject under discussion. nu ubject was the proposed chunge in tho ations, which are n future to guide ny contractor lucky enough to get a con- ‘ncv. for paving the streets of Owaba. Tho tar to the square of block pavement instead of two gallons as formerly, and for broken stone of & minimum diameter of half an nch instead of i inch, as was used in the con crete pavements of lst year. Messrs. Mayne and Heimrod did not wish to adopt them be- cause the new specifications we prepared airman Balcombe and City Engineer Tillson, without consulting them or asking their approval. Ex-Chairman Creighton op- posed them because he was interested in property on Twelfth and Thirteenth streets, and thought they meant higher prices for street improveme And 80 he s: “You want to increase the size of the stone, and so increase the cost, without deriving any benefit.” “No, I don't, is right here, said the want the av be i inch think that will better answer and give a better road.” ‘‘How can it make a better road!” asked the ex-chairman, “A stone is a solid, and you want to replace it with ‘sand. You practically want to exc'ude solids, for the larger the stone the terstices and the more sand will be required to fill them.” A general conversation followed, in which the merits of large and small stone were dis- at length, and it was stated that the sion of the construction had more to ment than either. Finally Mr. Heimrod handed in a resolution, ignoring altogether the new specifications, and stating that all contracts would be gov- erned by those in force in 1887, It was almost a vote of censure on the chairman, and after reading it he put it down. “Will you put that motion Mr. Chairmani” asked the mover. “Well, let us talk a minute first. Wouldn't it be better and more reasonable, seeing it's gone so far, to let bids come in on both?" E. Mayne thought, in that case, as bids were already asked for, that if any bidder should come 'in with a_tender based on one set of specifications only (should he not have received the other) that he might bring the matter into court. It was explained that the board could reject any or all bids. Chairman Balcombe then prepared another resolution, but as it referred to the new spec 18 as those of ‘1888, neither of the otl members would offer it, claiming that by so doing they would endorse them and render them legal. Mr. Mayne was will- ing to receive tenders on both specifications, reject them all |f necessary, and frame a new set after Mar Another long consulta- tion was held, in which the ex-chairman said that the “more you scatter your bids the more trouble you'll have,” but at the close Member Heimrod substituted the following for his original motion: Resolved, That the chairman be requested to furnish to contractors paving specifications and receive bids upon the same. The vill also receive bids ed upon a cer- tain specification marked “proposed specifica- tion of 1588, This seemed to bridge over the trouble and yard The only change we've made chairman, “We ns of the stone to , because we the purpose vou oppose the eporter of the mover, “‘Well, you see Balcombe and the engineer framed it without consulting us, and wo claim that it should not have been done. The only ations in force are those of until whole poard changes them. There's no harm in taking bids on the- new ones, how- ever, and then we can compare the difference in cost,” “No, there will be no such difference in cost as they claim,” said the city engineer. “It's a contractors kick. To furnish the on half inch stone, will requiro a little mor labor in screening, and they don't like it. “There are only one or two firms that furnish the city with broken stone, and they may put their heads together and raise the price, but if there was any competition, I don’ L think it would cost the city a_cent more, We claim that the more conerete they use (in filling up the spaces) the better the road will be.” Bofore adjourning permission was given Dr. Mercer (0 connect his present lines of railway at the followmg points: Twelfth street Farnam to Douglas, Fourteenth street Douglas to Howard, Burt strect Nineteenth to Twenty second, Leavenworth strect Fif- teenth to Twenty-fourth and to connect the track at Twenty-second and Cuming.

BENCH AND BAR. District Court. Yesterday \Tr Gurley, state, began the arguments in the Lutz mur- der trial. Mr. Gurley’s address was attent- ively listened to by the eourt, the jury and a crowded room of spectators, The young at- torney muade a powerful address and perhaps made as strong a plea as has been heard in any case in the district court for a long time where the preponderance of evidence fayored the prisoner, Mr. Gurley was followed by Mr. Charles Offut. Mr. Offut’s address in many respects was o remarkable one, and the eloquence ot the orator caused many to shed tears, while the sobs of the prisoner were audible m all parts of the room. Judge Groff was visibly affccted, and at least three of the jurors showed suspicious signs of sympathy with the prisoner, Mr. Offut made, first, a careful an; the testimony, He argued that the c e rested entirely upon the evidence of Gerhardt Lutz, the unnatural son of the defendent, who would place a halter about th k of his own father to shield the de- pravity of the mother, Lynch, the murdered man, was scourged by the denunciatory sar- casm of the attorney. He was shown to have been, (in the language of Mr. Offut) *as foul a creature upon whom the blasting accusation of erime ever rested as ever existed.” The attorney.then entered into adiscussion of the sacred ties t should and the home and showed how the fireside of Lutz hud been robbed of the mother of his three children, My, Offut then went into the sel s theory and claimed that the evidenc ‘l‘\‘l hat Lutz shot Lynch tosave his own in bvhnll of the Offut closed ut toon and Mr. Es- telle began his argument at 2 o'clock. County Attorney Simeral closed the argu- ments with a strong arraighment of the pris- oner, The judge delivered a brief and com- prehensive charge to the jury, who retired and in about an hour returned with a verdict of not guilty. The prisoner was thereupon discharged. A BANK WANTS ITS MONEY. The Metropolitan National bank of Chi- cago, in the complaint filed yesterday, sets forth that Charles A, Baldwin & Co, are in- debted to the institution in the sum of $3.401.13 on promissory notes, for which Judgment is asked.
