= THE OMAHA DAILY BEE: WEDNESDAY, HE ACTED IV SELE-DEFENSE. Tan Bowman HExonerated For the Killing of Jack Kluney. VERDICT OF THE CORONER'S JURY ANl the Testimony Tending to Show That the Dead Man Met With & ¥ully Merited Fate, The Shooting Was Justifiab) The evidence in the coroner's inquest upon the remains of Jack Kinney, who was killed by Tan Bowman in the latter's saloon Mon- day night, differs materially from the pub- lished reports of the affair. The jury was called by Coronor Drexel at 9 o'clock yeeterday afternoon, and after viewing Kinney's remains ut his mother's home on Howard streot, returned 1o the coroner's office, where the testimony was taken, The members of the jury wero B. Gordon, L. Dennis, Mose Sturnam, Sam Bell, W. 1>, Berkhauser and Ed Shelby. The first witness called was D, A Browster, a colored man, who w the shooting, He said that Kinney was standing on the bar rail and leaning on the counter. He usked Bow- man for a dollar when Bowman lled a re- volver and fired five shots. Bowman then took Kinney by the heels and dragged him into the strect and began pounding him and kicking him. Kinney did not have any knite and did not threaten to kill Bowman. Archie Harvey, unother eye-witness, swore Ten of us wero standing at the bar. Jamison was treating. Kinney came up to me and said, *“T'an owes me a dollar and I'm going to make him give it to me.” Jamison told Kinney to shut up. Kinney then said, “Tan, give mo a dollar.” Tan said “What for.' Kinney said “You koow what for, and if any s—of—b owes me and woa't pay I'll make him give it to me." Kinney raised up aad thon Tan commenced shooting. Kinncy tried to get away and rap behind the scroen. Bowman stepped %o one side and kept on_shooting. Kinney did not have a knife. He was stimling right at my side when the shooting commenced.” ® Dr. Edward Womersley was the next wit- ness. He statod that he bad made the post- mortem examination yesterduy, ussisted by Dr. Ralph. They foutid a small wound over the bridge of the nose, which had evidently been made by a sharp instrument. In addi- tion to this there were nine wouuds made by some projectile. The first was on the right arm. Tho bullet had passed through the biceps muscie from the outside and passed into the chest, Another wound was just below the claviclo on the right side. This bullet bud come out near where the first fiad entered the chest. Another wound was near theapex of the left shoulder. and still an- other just above the right nipple. Wien the dead man was turned over a b llet dropped from liis clothes. Nonoof the wounds in the upper chest were necessarily fatal. The fatal wound was in the lower chest. passing through the diaphragm and the liver, and fractured the lumbar vertebrwe, lodging in the abdominal cavity. This witness also testified to having been called to sec the man_ soon after the shooting occurred, and found him conscious _but upparently under the in- fluence of liquor, Sometimes it seemed that the man realized his condition, but. the greater part of the ume his talk was ram- bling. The immediate cause of death was nemorrnage, This was caused by the bullet wounds. The ball which had dropped from the dead man's clothes was identitied. Howard Green, a hotel waiter, testitied that he was in the saloon both before and during the shootinz, and witnessed most of it. The first he sew of the trouble was when Kinney said to Bowman, **Tan, you owo me adollar.” Tan swd he'dian’t'owe him auy dollar. ‘Phen Kinney stepped up on tho raii- ing iu frout of the bar with one foot, renched over and caught the edge of the bar with his right hand, raised his other foot as though to jump over the bar, and raised his left hand as though to strive Bowman. He had a lone-blad~ knife in his left hund, beng a left-handeu man, The blade was ubout three arfour inches long, was slender and sharp- ened on both sides. It was a pocket ke but hiad a blade like a dirk, When Kinney made this move at Bowman, Tan stepped back out of reach, but Kinney kept lunging at hin and making moves as thoush to jump over tno bar, and Bowman grabbed a pstol and fired at him Bowman jumped down from the bar and ran around @the screen to get at Bowman, who fired at him again. The witness did not remembor how many times Bowman shotat Kinney. He also stated that he had scen the knife in Kinney's hand before the shooting, and befora he usked for tha doliar. It was closed ti. >n, but when hé jumped upon the har it was open, John Wright, Bowman's partner, was ed. He testified that Bowman had asked 0 a number of times to order Kinuey to stay away from the saloor, as he was afraid of lum. Kinney had a reputation of being a quarrelsome man, who was always in trouble. He had had several quarrels in their saloon, but had never had a fight there, His evidenco concerning the shooting was substantially .the same as the previous Wwitnesse Tan shot flve times and ran around the bar and kicked Kinney several thmes, after whicn he took him by the log and dragged hin out on the strect. On cross-cxamination Wright testified that Kinnoy had been in the saloon in_the after- noon and said he was going to murder some one. Hé was in the habit of carrving a Jong bladed knife which opened with a spring and could be operated with one hand. He had this knifo in the afternoon. Detective Pat. Horrigan was called and testificd to having arrested Howman, who acknowledged freely that he had shot Kin- y in selt-defense. Horrigan picked Kinney up from the streev and laid him on & billiard table in the saloon, Kinney was able to talk and said Bowman bad shot him for nothing. Also said he bad no knifo The doctors arrived at this time and Fave Kinney an injection of morphine, which quieted him. Horrigan ideotified 'the re- voiver which had been taken from Bowman, All the chambers were emply. It was a Surith & Wesson, 88-calibre. Horrigan aiso testified thay Kinney nad & bad reputation and was considered a tough customer gen- erally; was always in tronble with somo ono and was under arrcst most of the time. Bowman had an excollent reputation for peace and quietness and had never been in any trouble as far as the witness knew. Oficer Fields was calld and corroborated tho testimony of Horrigan, The jury retired for consultation and almost immediately returned a verdict com- plete erating Bowman from ull blame in the shooting.

The supreme court has decided that Lieu- tenant Earle, of Fort Omaha, will have to support his wife as long as the warriage re- lation between them exists. Mrs. Karle sued for a decree of alimony from her hus- band three years ago on the ground of cruel and inhuman treatment. The defendant de- murred on the ground that no alimony could be allowed unless a divorce was granted, Judge Wakeley sustained the demurrer and the case was carried to the supreme court. A decision has just been reached, i which the court holds that Licutenant Earle must muaintain bis wife while the marriage rela- tion exists and that alimouy does not depend upou & divorce, —— RIED, BASTABLE—Suddenly at No. 2523 Faromn street, John Daniel Bastable, aged B0 years and 8 months.

The Employes Oppose its Inorsase and Make Grave Insinuations. The intention of the Union Pacifio com- pany to increase the monthly assessment of its employes for the hospital fund, ap aeconnt of which was published in Tre Berof Mon- day, has aroused considerable feeling among the men. Considerable opposition has al- ready been developed. A large numver of the omployes were seen yesterday, and In overy instance the increase was regarded as un- warranted. The opinion prevails that the company has used more or iess of ita hospi- tal fund to apply on payments of damages in casos of personal injuries. One of the men said: “ltdoes not seem at all probabie or possible, that, with at least $4,000 pouring into the fund monthiy, & shortage, to the ex- tent which the ofticials state, could have resulted. There must be some underhand work going on. We number about 17,000 men. Our_assess- ment aggregatos $4,250 per month. If, with this amount there be an insufficiency, then 1 must _confess that | know but little as regards the cost of maintaing a department of this kiud. Yes, all the employes to a man are opposed to it and 1 think that before they will submit to the incroase the company will have to produce figures to show that the finanves have not been misused.” One of the officials, with reference to the mattor said: “No, the compauy has not used a dollar of the hospital fund for uny purpose other than for which it is created, No damuges for perscnal injuries have been paid out of this fuud, and, when an employe was injured in & way toat his wages were allowed to uccumulate during his disability, the Iatter have been paid by the company, and the money wus not taken out of the hospital i FUND. fund for that purpose. It requires considerable money to lkeep this Jepart- ment up, We have an hospital of our own at Ogden and at Denver and have contracts with hospitals at Omaha, Kausas City and Lavamic. Sinco the institution was organized, we have increased its benefis, Of course, the salary of the railway sur- geons is taken out of the hospital fund. I have no doubt but that the cowpany or the officials in charge of the fund will be willing to furnish any statement regarding the dis- position of the samo that may be desirea.” 1t in stated that the disposition of the fund is entrusted to General Manager Kimball, Auditor Yourg and O, J.

While in Route Home W. 8, Cunning- ham HBreathes His Last. Daath is indiscriminate. Ace, beauty or circumstance avails nothing when confrouted by the grim destroyer. Evidence substan- tinting this was adduced at tho Burlington depot 1n this city late yesterday afternoon. The Denver vestibule express on the Bur- lington is due here at 3 p. m. It was a trifle late on this occasion, and had it been on time one less might have been numbored in the mortality column of Omaha. On board the train was W. S.

Maorae and Liclsenring on the Intricaciés bt Materia Medion, The Omaha Medical College. The opening exercises of the Omaba Med- ical college took place last night, and thi morning at 0 n'clock at least fifty matricu- lants will, with bated broath, answer divers questions regarding their abilities to become physicians, The exercisos were of & very Interesting character, despite the fact that no subjects wore dissocted and no interesting freaks of nature presorved in alcohol exhibited, A large number of embryo physicians of both sexes mingled with A scoro of old practitioners and passed tho time away gazing at a skeloton onded by a string near the doorway of the faculty room, and awaited develop- ments, At 8 0'clock the portal swung onen on _its hinges, and, preceded by Dr. Leiscoring, Kev. William J. Harsha and Mayor Broatch, a half dozen physicians entered and_seated themselves around the lecturer's desk. Dr. Leisenriog, on bohulf of the faculty, extonded to all present a hearty welcome, and introduced Rev. Mr. Harsha, who of- fered prayer. When he had concluded Mayor Broateh made a fow romarks regarding the duties and abilities of physicians aud sur- geons, and then the speaker of the evening, Dr. Macrae, of Council Bluffs, was intro- duced. Dr. Macrae's address was of a very inter- esting character aud is in substanco as follows: “‘Ladies and Gentlemen—I _dosiro to con- gratulate the faculty of the Omaha Medical college upon the interest manifosted in its affairs, which araws together so lurge an audienco upon the evening of its opening exercises. ‘I'liore are many new things to be loarned regarding medicine; there are new points, new theories and new methods. All requiro explauation, beeause all are the re- sult of actual practice and have becn dis- covered only by the closest of observation, They are the result of the keen forcsight of the many thousand practivioners. who are ever on the alert 10 discover something new in the interest of humanity, and who are glad to embrace any and all valuable ideas outside the set doctrines of those who cling to the policy advanced by their forefuthers with a persistency that brooks no denial; that is unwillipg "to_admit hat nothing 'new is valuable or serviceable. “Medical scionce is progressive; it will progress until it ranks alongside the other sciences. A yet it is n its iucipiency, and yet it is far abiead of the century we have left vohind. It has been divorced from theology and superstition, and to-day the culightened portion of earth’s people no longer believe in tho claims of & priest- hood who, by mcantation, sought to cure all the evils the flesh was-heir to. There was a time when disense was believed to be a Di- vine aflliction, and 616 that could be obvi ated by Divine power alone. The oid Egyptian priests visited the abodes of the sick, not in_the person of physicians, but as wouder workers. But ht last the two, medi- cine and theology, wera separated. 3 it was determined that, health was the_nor- mal and disease the_abnormal condition of the body, and_that thio latter was the viola tion of nature's laws in some respect. From thence medical science has progressed, but yet there is much to be learned. Some' men still_believe that supplication will work wonders, und that futh doctors can work marvelous cures. *But the proper use and practice of n icino depends uporthe careful warring of the student and the careful observation of the practitioner. I profess to teach medicine, but I cannot descrive it thoroughly. I can only lay the foundation, the structure must be crected by yourselves. You wust learn yourseives at the bedside of the sick.” Dr. Leisenring then reviewed the history of the college at some length, und an- nouncea to-day's programme as follows : od- 9 a. w.—Lecture, “‘Obstetrics,” P.
