‘THE OMAHA DAILY BERL SATURDAY, JUNE 22, 1889, ADEFENSE 07 PATRICK ECAN, Thayer's Reply to the Britiah- Amer- ioan Association. THE COUNCIL INVESTIGATION. | Details of Fraud Practiced in Sewer Work — Lincoln's School Fi- nances—City News and Notes. 1020 P Streer, LiNcoLw, June 21, The following letter, written to John Low, Boston, Mass,, secretary of the British- American association, is.self-explanatory SraTe oF NEnnaska, EXrcurive Depant- MENT, LIXCOLN, Juno 17.—Jown W. Low, Esq., Secretary of tho British-American ‘Association,, 84 Senool Street, Boston, Mass, Dear 5ir: 1 have received a printed circu- LIXCOLX BUREAU OF TR OMA®A Han, } lar, signed by you, addressed to mo as governor, headed “A Protest,” and ad- dressed “To tho members of the I ish- American association and fellow-citizsns. " From this protest L quote the following lan- guage: “Our organization holds as one of its car- dinul principles the promotion of pure and manly political action, Phe appointment by the prosident, and confirmation by the senate of the United States, of one, Patrick Kgan, of Nebraska, to the position of minister to Chili, is a pub- lic act that calls for reprobation and pro- tests, as one insulting to the sense of de- cency of all true citizens and a degradation of administrative statesmanship, for the fol- lowing reasons: “1. This Patrick Egan is one of those whose counduct is now under investigation by a special commisssion of British judges, a8 to participation in what every civilized state brands as crime against life and prop- erty, and, if guilty, should reccive condign punishment. *2. The position of minister to one of the most advanced states of South America should be fiilled by the best representative ability the nation can afford, and not made a payment for party service to a mere political Arab; especiully is this patent, when we remember the humiliating circumstance of the rebuke this nation received through a commission appointed to that same country under the udministration of President Arthur, “3. This appointment is insulting to the national dignity and ability of the 60,000,000 of people compiising this great republic, for it virually proclaims o the world thav of all its sons Lo the manor-born and ostherwise, there was not to bo found one among them ull, 50 well qualified to represent this great- est Awerican nation in the progressive state of Chili, as this fugitive from the power of British justice,” Why @ document containing such senti- ments should have been addressed to me is beyond cowprehension, for I certainly have never given any intimation of entertuining such views, and I could not have beiieved before the receipt of this protest that there were intetligent persons making claim to re- spectability who would proclaim such atro- clous sentiments. They are insuiting to every citizen of the ropublic; they are sb- horrent to every senso of justice and fair play; they are degrading to humanity, and are a dishonor to the country, and I denounce them and their authors with unmeasured in- dignation, and they should be held up to public reprobation, ‘Who constituted you and your asoociates l;ldgea of the motives and actions of menf y what authority do you arraign the presi- dent and senate of the United States for the appointment and contirmation of Patrick Egan us minister to Chili! ThunkGod,they are Dot responsible to such intolerably insolent bigots as you and your associates have proven yourselves to bo by the language used - in this circular. 1 have known Patrick Egan ever since he Jocated 1n the city of Lincotn years ago. He has always proven himseif to bo an upright and honorable man; & good citizen in every respect. You can no more tarnish his repu- tation with your vile slanaers than the foul bird of night can assail the eagle. To vent your rage and your venom at Mr. Egan’s ap- Pointment, you huve seized the weabons of & dofeated, despised, and unprincipled (yoa, of a vile London fish-wife) slanderer, and you call him by opprobious names, which fact always furnishes evidence that the party using them is completely worsted 1n support of a bad cause. You say Mr. Egan 1s *‘a pol Arab,” Isay heisan honor- able and honored American citizen, and I take pleasure in reminding you that he is envoy extraordinary and niimster plenopo- tentiary of the great republic of the United States, to the foremost republic of South Americ: You say he is a fugitive from the ‘“‘power of British justice.” Ab, you mistake, you should have written *British injustice.”” You say *“the conduct of Patrick Egan is now under wmvestigation by a special com- mission of British judges, as to participation in what every civilized state, brands as a crime against life and property.” Have you so soon forgotter how complete- ly and how oveérwaelmingly Patrick Egan shattcred one of the most dastard and damn- ning conspiracies, to blacken s own and od name of Parnell, that villainy ever cceted, which exposure sent -one of the conspirators to death and left the others ex- posed, to the condemnation of the civilized world1t The sentiments and tone of your protest smack more of the tlues and influences of the dark ages than of the enlightenment and liberal tendencies towards free government of the nineteenth century. 1 doubt not, if you had lived in those times, the rack, the tor- ture aud the inquisition would have been your instrumentalities for spreading liberal hu‘im-lpl s aud securing home rule. You esignate yourselves as membera of the Brit- ish-American association. We are all Ameri- can here. We are no’alf and’aif people. * We respect Britons when they respect them- selves, and observe tho very homely adage of “minding one's own business.” Please bear in mind that you are living in the nineteenth century, under the influence of enlightened Amcrican civilization, in a country where freedom has been proclaimed throughout the land and to all the inhab- ftants thorcof; where the enjoyment, with- out dictation from any source, of political and religious freedom is guaranteed to all; where a man is believed to be innocent tilt he is proven guilty ; where justice can be re- lied on, generally, to be impartial, although Chicago coroner and a coroner’s jury spent in trying to fasten the murder'of Dr. Cronin upon Alexander Sullivan rather than in trying to ascertain who is guilty of the awful crime of his taking off; where a man s not hounded and persecuted because he secks to obtain free specch avd home rale for his native land. 1 respectfully advise you to find some other calling than the circulation of the protest to which I have adverted. Respectfully, JOHN M. THAYER, The Comncilmanic Inquiry. The committee of inquiry into the affairs of the city sat at 2 p. w. this afternoon and Councilmen Halter and Clark, Lewis & Lewis, were sworn and examined as to the sale of the city district and intersection pay- ing bonds, They rehashed the statements made on former occasions, and attempted to explain all in @ satisfactory manner, They »d that they dia not get as much out of il us the 2° per cent commission that were to have by'the contract. . Harvey, n brick layer employed by Miller on the sewer work, gave details of the frauds practiced by Miller aud his fo on that work. kis testimony was t0o t cal for the general public, but he said he gould show when these frauds were prac- ticed, und that the work would speak for it- self. - He stated that be bad notified Austin Humphrey, chairman of the board of public works, at the time of these frauds. and thut Humphrey promised to look it op. but that was the last of it. When poor brick were given to the workmen to use and they spoke of it, the foroman replied: “What's the use of kicking, the inspoctor is not here, put thom in before he comes.” He told of n man having been dischary from the work for sunply saying that the cement used” had too much sand in it, nnd was ot good. ‘When his examination-in-chief was con- cluded Councilman Dean took up the cross- examination with so much vigor that Attor- ney Strodo sugkested that \f bie was going to oas for the defense it would be proper for “ to resign from the committee. Deane replied that ho was uot defending and only wanted justice. Harvey looal the mau ole at Fourteenth and L. as the one where frauds were practiced. Hugh Cockrhai, # mixer of seineut on the Miller sewer contract, was next sworn and testified that the proportion used by the order of the foreman was soventy-two shovels of sana and soven sacks of coment. He never knew of poor cement being used and tended Witness Harvey when he was at work. He was still in the empioy of the city. He de- nied that any but two shovels of sunda were used from the ditches Vhile the testimony was going on a gens eral smile went around and the inquiry among the spectators was, ‘‘Wnich one of the two do you believe!" Inspector Egan, who looked after the sower work, gave it to Witness Harvey in the neck, He said that Harvey had been a bidder with Tom Carr for this work and boasted that they intended having l)hroy and Gardner dischargad.

Tainted With Modicine, It Kills a Little Chila, Last Wednesday the infant child of Mr. and Mrs. Willlam M. Winkelman, of 1613 South Ninth street, sickened and Thursday it died. During the baby's illness Dr. Darrow at- tended, and upon examination found the lit- tle one was suffering from gastritis, or in- flammation of the stomach. The parents could not imagine from what source the disease had spruug, and began muking an investigation. Naturally their first attention was, it 18 ciaimed, first called to the mill, and here the voison'was readily discovered by the aid of the physician. The Winkelmans had been securing milk for the child from thewr friend and neighbor, George Elsasser, who owned @ cow. Last Thursiay, @ week ago, the cow was taken ill, seemingly with indi- gestion, and Mr. Elsasser called in a veterinary surgeon to alleviate the cow's suffering. The surgeon gave the animal cer- tain medicines, which affected the milic and, it 18 swd, killed tho child. Thursday, when Mr. Elsasser learned that the child was dead and the attributed cause, he was prostrated with_grief. He stated that when he called in Dr. J. B. Ayr he asked him 1if the medicine would affect the milic sufici- ently to affect the child, and the answer was “no," and for this reason he neglected 1w tell the Winklemans of the cpisode. Dr. Darrow said that the child had been fmproving until it bad partaken of the milk in question. It was a good, strong, hearty chila, suffering temporarily, however, but gave' evidence of rapid restoration to health until the instance referred to. Ac stated above, the milk, he claimed, had infiamed tho stomach, with fatal results, _« Mr, Elsasser, the owner of the cow, was seen. and said that the cow had been treated by Dr. Ayr, a veterinarian at Thirteenth and Dorcas’ streets, who had administered one dose of medicine for indigestion. Mr. Elsasser also stated that he had six children who had been drinking the same milk right along, and who had _experienced no deleteri- ous offects therefrom.

VOTED THEMSELVES A DIVY. ‘Why John Fitzgerald Sued the Ma- loney Construction Company. QVER HALF A MILLION INVOLVED. One of the Hottest Leagal Battles Ever Fought In Judge Dundy's Court — New Oasos Commenced, Probably the hottest legal battle that has been fought in the United States circuit this term is now on before Judge Dundy. John Fitzgerald, president of the Jrish tional Land league, is plaintiff, and the Fitzgerald-Mallony construction company and the Missouri Pacific road also figure as defendants. J. H. Marquotte, the B. & M. attorney, represents Fitzgerald, waile B. P, Waggenor, counsel for the Missouri Pacific in Kansas anda Nebrasks, is handling the other si Avout £600,000 1s involved. Fitagerald was general manager of the construction company and conducted the building of something like 100 miles of new road in Wisconsin, for which he claims never to have received any compensation. One of the points raised is that, while representini itseif as being financially embarrassed, an compelled to borrow money in order to com- plete the contract it had on hand, the diree- tors of the company held a meeting and voted to declare themselves a dividend of 100 per nt. The trial will probably lust several days. Districy Court, John K, Craft, plaintiff, won his suit against C. C. Littlefield, for possession of a ten-acre lot in Saratoga precinct. The jury found a verdict in favor of plaintift. The de- fendant's attorney says he will take an ap- peal to the supreme court, Craft's damages ‘were assessed at $1,800. John F. White, an attorney of Salem, Ala., was, on motion of J. F. Moriarity, admitted to the bar. Judge Groff goes to Blair Monday morn- ing, and will hold court there next week.

County Attorney Mahoney arraigned George Meyers for the wmurder of Nels Planteen at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and will hold the preliminary trial either to- morrow or Monday. Judgo Hopewell was occupied noarly all day m hearing the case of Charles E. Roth, eharged with the malicious destruction of two hogs belonging to a neighbor named Peter Roos. Mr Roth lives on the Beit line near the station of West Lawn. A shorttime ago one of his boys was out hunting and re- turned with his shotgun loaded. Mr. Roth, thinking a loaded shotgun wasn’t the safest thing in the world to have in the house, took it outside to fire it off, While casting about for something to fire at, he spied Neighbor Roos’ red barn and let drive at it. He acci- dentally hit the barn, and the gun, bein loaded with buckshot, the charge penetrate to the interior, killing two finc fat hous which Neighbor Roos had intended to exhibit at the fair. In consequence Mr. Roos grew very indignant, ana at once brought suit against Mr. Roth for malicious destruction of hogs. Afterduly considering theevidence the jury returned a verdict acquitting the de- fendant. In the case of Elizabeth Midgely vs W. C. Bryant, before Judge Groff, a verdict was rendered for the defendant. Judge Doane is still hearing testimony in the case of Hoagland vs The Omaha Bridge company. The testimony for plaintiff is not all in. Court was adjourned to Monday morning. County OCourt.

Judge Rerka asiWoll as the Oandi- dates for Polioce Clerk, Captain Wood aad his pipe adorned the clerk's desk at the court as usual, tho mayor's request for his rosignation having evidently been ignéfoll. Under the amended dharter, it is not neces- sary for any steps 1o be taken to remove the present clerik, the cliarter and the ordinance adopted by the coungilrequiring the mayor to appoint a clork, apd, as soon as this is done Captain Wood will be out of a job, There are no new developments in tho mat- ter of the captain'‘alleged shortage. The finance committee ‘of the council has the comptrollos’s report in hand and will prob- ably report at the next mecting of the coun- cil. If a police clerk {8 appointed at that meeting the committeo will probably take no further action in the matter, but will take steps for the investigation of the charges unless a change is made. A city official said to a reporter: “It was unfortunato that Judge Berka allowed Cap- tain Wood to handle any of the funds of the office at all. Itisa fact that in the first month Wood acted as clerk there was a shortage of &350 in his cash which Judge Berka had to make good, and now I supposo he will be stuck for the' 8350 shortage. It don’t seem fair, though, to hold an official responsible for the actions of a clerk who is placed under him by the council without his having anything o say in tho matter.” The mayor has not yet decided upon the appointment of a successor to Captain Wood. There are a large number of apBlicants for tho place, all well endorsed. Among them are Louis Hopkins, Judge Bartlert and Je- rome Pentzel. Mayor Broatch has decided to appoint no one urless recommended by Judge Berka and the latter is driven almost to distraction by the friends of each candi- date. It was semi-officially aunounced that Jorome Pentzel had been decided upon for the place, although Judge Berka refused to deny or confirm the truth of the report. Pentzel served throe years as clerk under Judge Beneke and two' years under Judgoe Stenberg and is thoroughly conversant with the details of the clerk’s duties, That, it is said, has influenced Judge Berka in Pentzel's favor, as he does not want to be put to the trouble of breaking 1n anew clerk for the few months that he will remain in the ofice. The matter will be deflnitely decided on Tuesday at the latest. o PUBLIC WORKS May Bids on Srwers and Plank Walks.
