T e e——————. NEAL DELIBERALING 1N JAIL Uncertain as to the Plea of Guilty or Not Guilty. SHELLENBERGER'S OTHER NAME, The Fact That the Prisoner is a Monumental Liar Fully Es- tablished by an lowa Sherfr. Neal's Plen. The preliminary examination of Neal, which had been set for 2 o'clock yesterda; afternoon, did not take place, though it will probably bo held today at an hour yet 10 be decided upon. County Attorney Mahoney said that the prisoncr hiad beon unable to como to any conclusion as to which way he would step. “'You sce he has no counsel or money to so- cure counsel. Whatever advice be gets will come from some attorney in the hope of being appointed by the court to defend tho man. Until Neal makes up his mind whether be will or will uot make me the trouble of a test oxamination—one 1n which it will be necessary for me to produce my witnesses— it will be as well, I think, to give him just a little time. The examination may and may Dot occur tomorrow.” Shellenberger's Alias, The correspondent of Tur Ber at Logan, Ta., writos that the nume of the man who was arrested with Neal for horse stealing and tried at that place is Joe Gray and that he had never been known there by another name. ‘The name of Shellenberger, therefore, was a strange one to them. The feeling in Logan, the correspondent states further, s that Neal wishes to get even with Gray for allowing Limto go to the penitentiary and seeks o fasten upon him the murder of Mr. and Mrs. Jones, even though he cnarges it to a man to whom he gives the name of Shelleuber- gor. It is held that in some localities, Gray may have been and be still known as Shellen- borger. After he was discharged from the juil of Harrson county, he left Logan and has not boen heard from or seen since. Gray was a tough ana associatod with horse thieves in the Omaha Indian reservation. A half-breed from the vicinity was engaged with him in the Missour: Valiey robbery. In his last talk with Tur Bee representative Neal sald that Shellenberger was also known by the name of Gray. Caught in Another Lie, Sheriff J. D. Garrison of Logan, Harrison county, Ia., who probably knows a great deal more about Neal than any person heard of up to the present time, arrived in this city yesterday and called on tho prisoner. It was Sheriff Garrison who ran Neal down, captured and j ailed bim for the cattle steal- ing job that cost him the two and a half year's sontence recently finished in the Iowa ponitentiary. In working up the case against Neal, Sheriff Garrison dug very deep into s much as was possible to be learned of the fellow’s past life, his associ- ates, modes of operating, ete. The sheriff is a very wtelligent, well educated, quiet gen- tleman, some forty-five years old, and of wide experience and great reputation in oriminal matters in many parts of the United States. Speaking of Neal, just after having visited and talked with hun yesterday afternoon, Sheriff Garrison said: “During our conversation, which was quite brief, 1 happened to say to him, ‘Neal, what do you think of your old partner, Joe Gray,being in the penitentiary at Stillwater, Minn?’ He pave a start, blushed deeply, then getting control of his tongue he au- swered with the same old bypocritical smile that he had three years ago: 'Why,1've no partncr named Joe Gray."" * “What's the matter with "you, Edi I thought you hud got done talking riddies to me. You know well enough that L koew Joe Gray, that partner of yours !’ ‘'Oh.’" said Neal, ‘the man that you mean—that did me dirt on that cattle deal —was Joe Shellenberger,and Joe Gray was an aliss. But you don’t mean to tell me that he is in the penitentiary! Why, yes, that's so, 1 foreot, for I knew he had been sent up.’ *“Ihat little remark,” continued Sherift Garrison to Tne Bie reporter, ‘“that_little start that Neal gave ana his blushing cleared from my mind Lhe last vestige of any iden I may huve had that Neal had any accom- plice whatever in this double murder, Neal murdered those old Jones people just as sure as day and night, His ruse about a man named Shellenberger helping him is now indeed & ruse to me. Let me make 1t olear to you if you haven’t already caught 1t yourself. In the firstplace, to bring it home 10 you in the clearest possible manner, Noal told all of you Omaha reporters when he said that Shelienberger did the killing, or to tnat effect, that although he and Shellenberger were not on the most intimato terms on account of the circumstances under which they parted in lowa, yet he (Neal) entertained little ill-feeling toward him, My proof of his hay- ing lied right at that point 18, thav the war- den of the Fort Madison penitentiary told meo only a short time ago that Neal had told his cel! mate there, just before leaving, that he would do up Gray (whom he calls Shell- enberger) the first time ho met him after gotting out. This shows that Neal had, in reality, a deadly hatred of Shellenbereer. Now, then, after he (Neal) murdered these old folks, he thought to himself, ‘I’ll put the Jalhng part of this job onto Shellenberger, have bim found, and then, when he's ar- rested, I'll do the bogus state's evidence wrning uet on him, and get his neck strotched. He adopted some such plan with the same foolbardy rush and total lack of caution which I kuow -intinately to have characterized everything that he hus done within the 'pust three or four years, He gave no thought, whatever, to first locating his old pal and bitterly g-l:d enemy. Had he done so he would ave discovered, very greatly to his sur- prise, as hedid yesterday, that that same old pal was in the “penitentiary at Stiliwater, inn. The start, the flush, his utter lack of words upon hearing that Shellenberger, as he calls Gray, was in the penitentiary, showed to me what an overwhelming sur~ priso und temporarily usbearablo shock ho ad experienced.”” . The reporter then asked Sheriff Garrison whether this pal really had done Neal a wrong, **Yes, as such men consiaot a wrong. It would have been perbaps impossible, utterly 80, 10 have convicted Neal on the cattle stealing charge 1 Jowa if this wan_ - Gray, or Shellenberger, had stood by Neal and testified in his behalf. As it was, he desertea Neal,” “But dian't Neal confess that crime?” asked the reporter, “'Certainly be did, but not until he had found that this pal’ had proven faithless to him by running away at 1he very vital mo- ment when Neal needed him most.” “'Were you ever able to get at Neal's right namei” “No," replied Mr. Garrison, ‘“and we turned the criminal records of unearly every city in the country inside out trying to do that very thing, “The nearest we came to it was, that after Neal had lied 1o us about his fawily several times he oue day made what ne vohewmently tormed a ‘dead square’ stute- ment to me on the wmatter. It was that he Was the son of @ woman who kept @ house of allfume m Kausas City. I wrote the autborities there and they answerad that & WOWAI Buswering the description that Neal gave of his mother had a son_that tal- lied exuctly with my deseription of Neal him- self. The suthoritics added, i their reply, that the womun had just died, and thgt she Wus the wickedest up 1o the very time 0f her death they ever had known in Kunsas City. “This man Neal,” sontinued Sheriff Gai rison, *is ahsolutely the most magaificeny liar 1 ever met. Ho Lied wo plausibly to one of the shrowdest aud most prominent law- yers in lowa, a8 0 cause the gentleman to snend a large wmouot of bis owa private funds going to see Neal's father in Kansas, who Neal said was a bavk president in oertain Lown in @ remote part of the siate ‘The lawyer found there wasn’t even a bauk, wuck less bauk president, in the blave. Do you kuow, sir, that after we had gotten a perfoctly clear ana entirely indisputable | case ageinst the man on the cattle lmuni Joh then afier be had confessed to i, sud was taking him to the penitentiary, he looked me straight and fally in the eye and remarked: ‘Sheriff, Iam no more guilty of aling those cattle than sou are) I lavghed squarely in his face and asked him what he confessed the erime for. He re- plied, 'I simply thought it the best way out of the matter.’ " Why Neal should give it out to the author- ities and newspaper men in Omaha that Jos Shellenberger was the real name of his old pal and that Joe Gray was the alias, and then say to Sheriff Garrison that it was just the reverse. is possibly accounted for by his having at some time heard that his pal was known to the authorities by the name of Shelienberger and that he (Neal) could more easily get them after the pal by giving that name, A Few More Olues. Chief Seavey received a number of com- munications yesterday relative to Neal. The most important s from S. M. Melick, city marshal of Lincoln, It will be recalled that Neal said that the gold ring which was traded off in South Omaha, and which the children of Mra, Jongs identify as having be- longzed to their mu| mother, was stolen in Lincoln. It s relative to Neal's statement that ho got the ring by barglarizing a house in Lincoln that Marshal Melick writes. The marshal says that on the_night of February 1, 1800, the houso of W, H. Derr, 819 North Seventcenth stroet, between O and S streets, was entered by burglars and tho following property stolen: Three gold rings, cuft but- tons, some small chaonge, one b st pin and one' pocket knife. “A man an- swerlng the description of Neal, with 8 horse and buggy, stopped with a_faemer about two and a half miles north of the city, He was trying to sell the horse and acted very suspicious.” The marshal closes his letter by offering to gladly render any fur- ther information in his power, acd adding that he will send a fuller description of the articles if it is desired. Another communication which comes from Council Bluffs, ana 1t is not_signed, says, in substance, that a man of Neal's description called at s colored woman's houso in the Bluffs on the might of the Sth and wanted to buy a revolver, saying that the whole police force wus after him. W hen no revolver was @iven him he pleaded to stay all night. Ho was finally driven away, and the letter says went to “tho depot @8 o train camo in,” The colored woman *lives just south of the Northwostern depot.” Judg: Reuther Identifies Him, Judge Routher of South Omaha has a store adjoming the Wisconsin hotel on the south. On Thursday February 6, Neal went t0 the judge’s place immediately after leay- ivg the hotel. He had with him a pair of grips and a lot of goods. Ho asked permis- sion to put the latter in the valises and the judge directed him to a vacant Jart of the countsr in the end of the store. One of the articles which Neal decided not to put 1n the grip wus a pair of pantaloons for whick he smd he had mo further use. He asked the judge what he could do with them and the latter replied that he could throw them out in the alley. Neal then opened the door and threw the pantaloons away, The next day when the judge read Tie BEe's account of the mur- der he recallod the circumstanc, Yesterday e was shown a picture o and immediately exclaimed : -“That's tho man. Thavs the very fellow who threw the pantaloons out of the door of wy shop.’" Just why Neal should want to throw away a pair of pants when he has preserved the rest of his clothes cannot be understood. eal Had « Shot-Gun, Miss Henrietto Racek, who was roferred to 1 Monday's Bee as having received a couple of rings from Neal, was scen yester- day. Sho is a candid and ivtelligent young woman living with her mother at 2624 Irskine streel. Sho states positively that she had several times seen Neal at the Wisconsin house and that on Tuesday morning, February 4, she suw him cross Farnam street at Fifteenth street intersec- tion and that he had a double-barrel shot- gun under his arm. He was going south at the time, Neal’s Visit to the Bluffs, Neal called at the establishment of F. W. Spetman & Brother, on Lower Maiu street, Council Bluffs, on February 8, and secured 8 quantity of clothing. At that time he hud quite a roll of money avd his actions were 80 suspicious that Mr. Spetman directed a clerk to keep an eye on him. When the cut appeared in the Omaha papers vr. Spetman récognized him as the party, and notitied the Nebraska suthorities that he will cross the river to identify the man. Neal purchased a blue coat and vest, of the G. A. R. style, and a pair of striped pants. Affer making this purchase he concluded that he wanted a hat and some underclothing, which he also purchused. He wore a cap when he entered the store aud he glanced so sharply and fur- tively about the store that Mr. Spetman deemed it hest to but a double watch on him and waited ou the fellow himself. 1o Nervous Men, If you will send us your address we will send you Dr. Dye's celebrated voltaic belt and appliances on trial, They will quickly restore you to vigor, manhood and health.

Last November, an Omaha real estate firm offered Mr, Brinkerhoff #78,000 for the property and received a reply that the prop- erty had been sold for §30,000, and was then held at §100,000, The transfer for §00,000 was recorded Monday, the purchuser being Theodore Gerish, a representative of an castern banking firm, The property has a frontage of sixty-six feet on Farnam street and 132 on Seveulecnth street.

The Storm Impedes Street Car Travel, AND CAUSES DESERTED STREETS, The Latest Invasion of Wind and Snow with the Temperature at Several Leading Points— Blocked Wheols. A Fall of Thirty-Six Degreos, When the weather w fair Monday the mercury registercd thirty-six degrees above zero, But towards nightfall the quicksilver in the thermometers showed & downward tendency and at 7 p. m. marked thirty-four degrees above zero. From that time the temperature fell steadily, avd at 7 yester- day morning the mercury stood only six degrees above zero and snow was falling, The cold became more intense, meanwhiio accompanied with & high wind and falling flakes, and at 10 a. m. the thermometer indi- cated oniy haif a degree above zero. At noon the mercury stood at half a degree below zero. At that time the signal service officer prophesied that the temperature would con- tinue falling until nightfall, when probably the minimuin would be reached. Dispatches from all the western and northwestern states show snowfalls, ‘The lowest temperature reached during the night was at St. Vincent, Mion., where the mercury registered 30 degrees below zero. At Fort Buford it stood at 24 below, and at Bismarck 22 degrees below. ‘Uhe chango in the weather almost pura- lyzed business, and the storekeepers had lit- tle else to do than to stir up their fires, listen to the whistling winds and kegp them- seives comfortable. The few pedestrians who were forced to be out were mostly mufiled beyond recognition. They hurried hither .nd thither and performed their er- rands with all possible dispatch so as to get from searching winds back to the comforta- ble firesides. ‘The horse cars were but slightly hindered in their progress by the drifting snow and were running almost on scheaule timo, The other linea, however, did not do so well, Although there had not been a heavy fall of snow, the electric motor lines were im- peded in their progress by the tendency of the snow to drift. At an early hour, the snow plows backed by three and four motor cars commenced cutting a way for the motor trais, It was soon discovered that it was out of the question to uttempt to run the cars on schedule time and trailers were out of the question. Shortly after 8 o'clock the Walnut Hill and South Eleventh street line was abandoned until the other tracks could bo cleared. About noom, however, three motors linked together forced their way to Walnut Hill and back. Communication was kept up wich Soutt Omaha, but only at intervals of alout an hour, the united force of three motors being necessary to combat the force of the wind and snow. The motormen found it neces- sary to hold brooms in front of the wheels to keep the beautiful from shutting off the elec- tric current. Shortly after 8 o'clock, when the storm was at its_neight, two trains, cach with two wotors, got stailed on the Sherwav avenue line a short distance below the fair grounds and a'l hope of making any further progross was abandoned. A mivute’s delay would invariably allow the suow Lo drift up against the wheels and make locowotion impossible, The train leaving thenorthern terminus at 8.10 did not reach Farnam street until an hour later and then ouly with the greatest difficulty. At that poimnt further progress was delayed for some time by & bridge mo- tor being stalled there. Travel was stop- ped on the Harney street line, but this wus occasioned by the breaking of the cubie at Seventeenth street. This rendered the travsfer from the wotor at Sixteenth street impossible. Men were placed at the farpam street intersection who superinteaded the transfer to the Far- nam street line instead. The U. S.

SOUTH OMAHA NEWS, Hubbell Has Departed. Considerable surprise was created Monday night by the aonouncement that E. G. Hub- bell, bookkeeper for the South Owaha Na- tional bank, had decampad, leaving a num- ber of unpaid bills, Friday afternoon Hub- bell secured a considerable amount of money on checks signed by himself, that proved worthless wheo presented at the bank, He is supposed to bave wone to Peoria, Il It was impossible to get attho exact facts Monday night, as none of the bunk officials could bo seen, Yesterday a nuwmber of those who were confidenced by Hubbell came to the front and admitted their losses. From Tom Rork he secured $30 Friday night on a check that was thrown out when presented at the bank.

More than 7,000 Womon Want Marry the Senator A fow days since a New York nows- paper correspondent, in lieu of a better or more appropriate subject for his Washington lotter, presented in his puper a readable sketch on the sena- torial bachelors and widowers, ana tho great catches for widows and marringe- able maidens among the legislators in the upper branch of congress, says the Mitwaukee Sentinel.
