Bupreme Court Decisions—The Ver- Aict of the Coroner's Jury in the Van Buskirk Pofsoning Case ~— Lincoln Notes. fPROM THE BRE'S LINCOLX BUREAU.] Yesterday J. H. Dean, a real estate man in this city, went to the depot to meet his wife, whom he expected from the east on the Nebraska City train. While awaiting the arrival of the train he, with an acquaintance, walked up and down the platform. and as the expected train was backing in Mr. Dean and his friend walked out on the platform where the passengers alight from the Ne- braska City train. Whilo they were thus ap- proaching the tr one of the B. & M. spec- fal police approached them and ordered them away from the depot, following his order by knocking Mr., Dean down with his club. Mr. Dean got up, protested that ho was there 1o meet his wife, and the B. & M. special of- ficer again struck him over the head. The passengers at this time woere alighting from the train and Mr. Dean with- drew, a large number of the pass- engers following him, indignant at the outrage and offering their services as witnesses. Later the case was laid before Judge Cochran and a warrant sworn out for the special whose name is Barada. He was found and arraigned and put under $200 vonds 1o appear to- and answer the charge. In the four weeks that have elapsed since the B. & M. covered their nlatform with special police and hired Pinkerton murderers, this is the first csse of violence that has arisen and after all the road’s military display to make the public belicve the engineers were dan- gerous men, it is vory appropriate that a pri- vate citizen at the depot to meet his wife, should be pounced upon and knocked down in this manner. The following supreme court decisions were handed down yesterday : ‘Wiggenhorn vs Kountz, Error from Saun- ders county. Affirmed. Opinion by Max- ‘weyl, J., Reese, Ch. J., not sitting. 1. Where an island on the Platte river had ‘been surveyed by the United States and sold to a party who received a palent therefor, such party or his grantee will become the owner of any accretions to such _isiand, or of 1and formed by avulsion from the washing away of the upper part of the isiand and the sudden formation of new land on the lower end thereof, and a party cutting trees grow- ing on the land so formed will be liable to the owner thereof in trespass. 2. While the general rule is that a grant of l1and on a stream not navigable, includes all islands or parts of islands between tho shore and the center thread of the stream, unless reserved, yet where there is a clear reserva- tion of these islands, either expressly or by necessary implication, they do not pass to the grantee, and the filum aquae which ‘bounds the grant is the center thread be- tween the shore and the island. In such cases two fila aquae aro established, one on each side of the island. 3. Where the main land and an island have been separately surveyed and purchashed by different parties as district tracts, the gnntms of the main land cannot claim the land as included in their grant. 4. Where two or more parties Jointly, and there is a verdict and against them, and cither defendant desires to raise a (}uentlnn peculiar to himself in the motion for a new trial, he should file a sepa- rate motion and not join with the other de- fendants. Dixon county vs. Halstead. Error from Dixon county. Affirmed. Opinion by Max- well, J. 1. United States bonds are not taxable un- der the laws of this state. Certain United States bonds were purchased on the 3d day of March, 1836, by a private banker, who on the 17th of May of that year claimed the same as exempt, from taxation, The board of equalization having imposed taxes on the bonds, beld that the evidence before such board failed to show that the bonds were pur- chased as & means of evading taxation. 2. Where a private baunk, about a month before the time fixed by law for the assess- ment_of proj converted his assets into United states bonds, held, that if the chan, in the character of the funds was merely temporary—the_object being to escape tax- ation—that such assets would be liable to be taxed, and that the question of the bona fides of the transaction was one of fact for the jury to derormine. Jones vs Seward county, 5 Neb, 561. 3. A private banker in returning a list of his property to the assessor, claimed as ex- empt from taxation certain United States bonds, givlflg their numbers and denomina- tion, to which the assessor made no objection at the time, but after the 1st day of June of that year added the value of said bonds to the assessment list of said bank and called the attention of the board of equalization to the fact; notice was thereupon served on the bank which appeared and contested the right to_increuse said asscssment; evidence was taken for and againstgaid claim, and the in crease in the asscsSment ordered by suid board, which order was reversed by the dis- trict court. Held, that the charge made by the assessor was in the nature of a complaint and made bya competent party, and that evidence was properly received in support of the complaint, but that the evidence did not ‘warrant the orderof the board of equalization. 4. Where an assessment has en duly made and returned, the property-owner may rost securely upon such assessment, unless a complaint is filed against hm before the urd of equalization, and evidence in support of the complaint tending to show that his as- sessment should be increased. Colton vs Shaffer. Error from Harlan county. Afiirmed, Opinion by Reesc, Ch. J. In an action for balance due upon an ac- count, the defense presented by the answer ‘was that of payment. The testimony was conflicting. The question of fact was decided Dy the jury i favor of defendant, upon eyi- dence which was held sufficient to sustain the \'N::nl\ct; the judgment, therefore, was not lests Risk & Co. vs McNeal. county.

In an action against the ‘county upon an ac- couat for the medicine furnished, it was held that there was no legal lisbility sgainst the county. Cockle Separator ete. Co. vs Clark.

In an application for a mandamus agalnst the incumbent of a county office, requiring him to deliver the books, papers and_monics of the office to the relator, who claimed the office by virtue of a tie vote at_the_election, and a determination of such tie in his favor by lot; heid, that the certificate should show specifically the manner in which such lot is determined; and where it is shown that the respondent was not present and took no part 1n such determination, the certificate should show that the county clerk drew for him, and that in such drawing and the determining of such lot the said clerk, for the respondent, was an actor equally with the relator, and that such lot was conducted and determined in such manner as to preclude the possibility of forethought or design on the part of any of the actors or canvassers, by which the termination of the lot might have beon fluenced to the disadvantage of the re- ndent vinkler vs Roeder, Error from Adams county.

As vindicative damages cannot be re- covered in this state, attorney's fecs are not recoverable in actions of tort, except where specifically provided for by statute. THE VERDICT. At noon yesterday the coroner's inquest over the body of D. Van Buskirk reached a verdict that he came to his death from an overdose of morphitie taken with suicidal in- tent. The coronor's jury consisted of the following citizens: R. B, Graham, W. C. Griftith, A, G. Hastings, Goorgy Barkloman L. K. Janney and W. S. Berry. Va Buskirk lived in o small houso near Seven- teenth and O streets, agd Tuesday night was seen ncting very strangely. The neighbors called a physicfan, but it was too late, and the man died before antidotes could accom- plish anything toward saving his life. The man is & bricklayer by trade and a married man, although his wife has been absent all the winter. He had been without work, and had gradually disposed of most of his furniture, 8o that his surroundings showed him reduced to extreme poverty. Empty morphine pottles showed the drug he had taken, nand letters loft showed that his 'intentions were to suicide. One of the witnesses tostified before the coroner’s jury that he had always regarded Van Buskirk as not exactly in his right mind, and a brother of the dead man had told him that at one previous time in Iowa Van Bus- kirk had made an unsuccessful attempt to take his life.

His coming has been fore- stallod by much gossip in railway circles, and many are the surmises in regard to the future management of the rond. The death of Vice President Potter has undoubtedly upset the plans, and caused a great deal of anxiety to those who were resting secure in his favor. While the gossip in railway cie- cles is not always reliable as news, it is un- questionably very entertaining. It is doubt- less true that the old faction fight is to be re- newed. Many railroad men, in a position to know, and others that know nothing about it, say that the days of Charles Francis Adams, as president, are numbered. The New York crowd have undoubtedly disp- played a groat deal of ability in the handling of the Boston people, as the knowing ones say that when the Union Pacific was in a bad way, tainted with the malodorous operations of the old ring, Mr. Adams was placed at the head of affairs for » purpose. Favorablo legislation was needed, and, under the old administration, it was not to be had. Mr. Adams' honesty of purpose was beyond reproach. He gave character and standing to the company, and disarmed criticism. He could go before con- gress and ask favorable consideration for his own administration, and demand that his own interests should not be held accountabie for the sins and shortcomings of the past, His mission s nearly accomplished, There is every probability that the Union Pacific will got what it asks at the Lands of the pres- ent session of congress, This done, Mr. Adams' usefulnoss ceases, and crowd which has been = hidin hind him will reassert itself. is stated that Mr. Adams has already re- ceived a sudden check. When Mr. Potter died, the duties of the office of general ‘man- ager should have devolved upon Mr. Thomas L. Kimball, who was his first assistant. Be- ing next in 'sucoession and perfectly familiar with the road, it was expected that he would be promoted tb the head of the actual execu- tive business. Butit is evident that Mr. Kimball was notin favor with Mr. Adams; in fact this is granted. When Mr. Potter's death occurred Mr. Adams at ohce issued a circular directing that all roports should be made direct to him at Boston, thus practio- ally ignoring Mr. Kimball. The ink on the circular was hardly dry before another was issued cancelling the fivst, and ordering that the reports should .be made to Mr. Kim- ball, and that the direction of affairs should be given to him, This is where gossip says, the New York crowd commenced to show itself, and it is further said that if Mr. Potter had lived, he would have suc- ceeded Mr. Adams as president. On this int New York did not show its hand, but it it is asserted that the scepter of power is 'yet to be taken from Boston. Mr. Xgflml does not want Mr. Kimball made the permanent goneral manager, buk would not oblectto Mr. . 8, Cameron suocesding to that place. Hore is whero New York and Boston are to make the fighting ground. The old Burlington employes, who flocked to the standard of Mr. Potter, ate somewhat anxious over the ou look. 'When Mr. Potter assumed the man- agement there ware changes mado by tho wholesale, and the old employes aro basking in the sunshine of the thought that Mr. Kimball, if he succeeds to the per- manent general management, will chop off the head of newcomers and reinstate at least a few of those who underwent a similar sur- gical operation, The conservative gossip thinks the old-timers are doing Mr. Kimbal an injustice, as it is smd the new men have come to likke Mr. Kimball and_his methods and he in turn has & high opinion_of their abilities. There is a great deal said which may or may not be true, but, nevertheless, the faot is very apparent, thatall s not har- mony among the greater lights in Union Pa- cific circles, and when the actual clash be- tween New York and Boston occurs, it will aptly illustrate, “When Greek meots Greek,” ete. THE COUN ‘What Was Done by Douglas County's Legislators Yesterday. The five county commissioners responded to their names when roll was called at the regular Wednesday meeting held yesterday, with Chairman O'Keefe wielding the gavel. The petition from property holders asking for the grading of Thirtiethstreet to the Mis- souri Pacific railway, and as much further west as possible, was referred to the commit- tee on roads. 3 William Foran’s application to be appointed inspector of the work on the county hospital, ‘was turned over to the committee on con- struction, as was that of P. J. Manning for the same position. The prayer of the Swedish Evangelical Mission church asking for the cancellation of taxes on lot 5, block 50, was referred to the judiciary committec. 2 The bond of F'. W. Lessentin as assessor of the Sixth ward was approved, and Preston & Co. were released from the bond of Myers Bros., who had the contract of furnishing the poor farm with bread.

The assessed valuation of V. Burkley’s property was reduced from 2,000 to §2,400, and the following resolutions were adopted: Resolved, That the city of Omaha's portion of cost of grading Leavenworth street from Thirty-sixth street to Saddle Creek be paid by the county of Douglas, provided the cost of same to the county does not exceed $3,000, worlk to be done under the supervision of the county surveyor in conjunction with the city enginoer. Resolved, That the county clerk be in- cted to advertise for one week for bids for the furnishing of bread for the county poor farm for the remainder of the year of AMUSEMENTS, A Charming Con COharming Comparfy. Arthur Rehan’s charming comedy company called together a splendid audience at Boyd's last night. The play was “Love in Harness,” It is a capital thing—a pure example of com- edy in the most refined sense of the word—a fund of intellectual enjoyment that is certain to command the interest of every one who takes delight in meritorious things. The cast was exceptionally fine—the ladies, while they possess the fairest feminine gracos of f and form, combine with them great histrioni talent, and the gentlemen, too, are likewise entitled to the highest extollation. Miss Adele Waters, who, en passant, is a lovely blonde, dresses like a model for Worth, and acts just too sweet for anything. Miss Lily Vinton, Nellie Howard, Ada Deaves and Mrs. Maider also dress well and enact their re- spective roles with exquisite abandon and esprit that is really captivating. ‘‘Love in Harness" is both & social and artistic success, not owing alone by any means to the ingen: ious construction of the plot, but to the act- ing of the old favorites, Messrs. Harry Botta, Al Lipman, George Parkes, Harold Russell and Dave Longworth.

The Board MHolds a Meeting, But Fails to Reach a_Conclusion. The liquor license board held a session at the mayor's office yesterday afternoon, to discuss the revocation of John King's permit 1o sell liquors on account of the recent dovel opments in regard to the gambiing that he has been conducting underground in connee- tion with his saloon, Tho mayor has not yot signed his license and says it would bo an outrage on public decency to do so, as King and his saloon have been a source of a great deal of trouble to the police, and King him- self is a hard citizen. King was one of tho trio in the game of Saturday night when Owens was relieved of $310, and at present is under arrest for gambling. A number of policemen woro catled before the board_to toll what they knew about the place. The tostimony was all damaging, but as In- spector ~Turnbull could not be present to testify, it was decided to postpone further action until he could be heard. Messrs. Bechel and Southard both opposed the policy of the mayor in the case, and from thei tall seemed disposed to grant King a )icense. Mr. Bechel oxprossed the opinion that he believed that Owens, the main_prosecuting witness against King, was himself a gambler and adventurer, but had gotten intoa sharper lot of men than himself and been ficeced. The matter of making the saloonkecpers pay in_a lump on April 1, the $750 due on their licenses, was also’ discussed by the board, Mr. Bechel said that he did not be- lieve that this could be collected, as the city, by receiving ono payment of §350 from all the saloonkeepers, had creatod the impres- sion and caused the saloonkeepers to belieye that they should pay for thoir license in quarterly installments, The mayor, how- ever, insisted_that he intended to follow out the policy he had outlined, and nothing could swerve him from his purpose. il il A Cornell Association. A number of alumni and former students of Cornell university met at the Omaha club rooms last evening to make preparations for the organization of a permanent stato associ- ation. The advisability of securing a_schol- arship in the university, to be competed for by the students of the Omaha high school was thoroughly discussed and unanimously agreed upon. A committee was appointed Lo write to President Adams in relation to the matter. It was decided to meet again on the evening of April 21 to perfect the organiza- tion of the association. An invitation is ex- tended to all the alumni and former students of the university who are now residing in Nebraska to join the organization. . Injured in a Runaway. About 5 o’clock yesterday afternoon an ex- citing runaway occurred on Sixteenth street. Mrs. J. H. Wood, while: driving with her buggy near the intersection of Sixteenth with Cass streot, was run fnto by a team driven by a butcher nsmed E. A. Marsh. Mrs, Wood's bufgy wasiupset and the lady was thrown violently to the ground: She suffered a number of contusions and bruises, but escaped ithout' ‘any broken bones. Meanwhile her horses, which had been frightencd by the collision, dashed at break- neck speed down Sixtaenth street, utterly demolishing the buggy.,,. The runaways wero caught near the Sixteenth stroet viaduct. Although pretty badly shaken up, Mrs, Wood insisted on Walking to her home, on Twenty-sixth and Graxt. Leased to Swift & Company.

There has been a scarcity of applicants for matrimonial honors during the past few days and yesterday floated into the slough of dull- ness in this direction, Judgo Shields had but one caller and that was David J. Whittaker, aged twenty-seven years, who sought per- mission to make Minnie M. Brown, nineteen years old, Mrs. Whittaker. The request was granted. ity “Years have not_seen and time shall not see,” the people sit down quietly to suffer pain, when enterprise can afford such a panacea as Salvation Oil. The old saying ‘“‘opposition is the life of business”” has not been sustained in one instance at least. Since the intro- duction of Dr. Bull's Cough Syrup all other cough remedies have been dead stock. ey Taken to the Asylum.

Can Oatarrh Be Oured? The past agomight be called a superstitions one. The prosent can more properly pe called an age of surprises, for many things once classed among the impossibilities have now become everyday possibilities, 1t would besuperfiuous t0 enumerato them. But have we reached tho utmost limit? Have we? Physicians who claim to make certain ailments the human body. subject to a special study, and claim to_be able 10 cure such diseases, are pronounced by other self-satistied practioners as presumptuons; but does thelr saying so make it 807 The man who gan come the nearost to overcoming the soeming impossibilities of others is now all the rage, and well does ho or they deserve the success they have labored so hard to_attain, Dr. J. Cresap McCoy or his associates do not make claims to anything marvelous, such as raising the dead and giving them nex life: neither do they clatm to give sight to blind; but by thelr new and scientific method of treating catarrh they have cured and do cure_catarrh as well as bronchial and throat troubles. They make catarrh a_ specialty, becanse it is one of most prevalent and troublesome diseases the people of this climate are heir to. Since Dr. McCoy and his associates have located in this -clty they have treated with snccess hun- dreds of persons whom other physicians have told their disease was classed aniong tho in- curables, Do they not publish from week to week in the daily papers testimonials from some of their many grateful patients, giving in each caso the full iwme and addross of the por- #on making the statement that the doubting and skeptical may call and interview the said people prior to visiting the do 's_oflices for cousuitation, "Mhe people advertised as, cured are by no means obscure or unknown, but in the majority of cases are citizens well known Dy the business people and community at large, and it will more than repay any one suffering from catarrhal affection to visit those whose statements are published, or consult with the doctor or s associates at his office.
