SHERMAN HAS CONEESSED, He Admits His Connection with the Pinney Farm Murder. THE PRISONER MAY BRE AK DOWN Af Guaranteed Immunity He Offers to Tarn State's Evidence and Tell the Whole Story or the Orime. Sherman’s Confession, Prarrsvovrir, Neb,, March 21 Special Telegram to I'me Bee [—Sherman, the third suspect in the Jones murder, has at length confessed his counection with that dreadful crime, tis knowledge of criminal matters led him to believe that the offivers of the law would investigate everytilng and overy cir- cumstance connected with the deed; he also #mew that they were on his track and fast ing all the statements ho had made n1ng hus whereabouts for the past sixty All these disclosures have been pub- Tue ¥, and in some way he bo- apprised of the fact. He accord- ingly made wup his mind to tell all he knew about the butchery. Last night this determination became known on tho stroets of this city, and was soon sup- vlemented by the announcement that he had actually confessed to Deputy Sheriff Tighe. This was in a measure supported by the fact that the deputy left ostensibly for Grand Islaad; mn reality, however, he left for Omana, where he called on County Attorney Mahoney and told him the secret which had been confessed to him by Shermac. This morning the attorney, Detective Haze, Deputy Sheriff Tighe, and Steno- grapher Denney arrived in town. They wero followed by Tue Bee correspondent, who had noticed early in the day that therc was a movement of the officers in tho direction of Plattsmouth. Upon the arrival here the party went to the county jail, but only County Attorney Mahoney was admitted. Later he sent for the stenographer and that gentieman was admittted. Sherman was taken to the city part of the bastile and the occupants of tiat place wera suffered to wander 2t will in the corridors while the sher- it mounted guard outside. Sherman looked tho picture of desperation; he has grown palo and thin and lis eyes seemed to have lost their lustre. He was told that his statement was to be purely voluntary and that anything he said would be shorthanded, read to lum and kept in confidence. He theo said that he had been at the Pin- ney farm several times before the Jones murderand knew the country in the vicins ity. A great deal of whathad been published in the papers was true and a great deal of it was untrue. He did not murder the old folks and claimed to' be only an accessory after the fact, The man who had done the Kkilting was Shellenberger. He claimed also that at the actual time of the killing he knew where he wi and would be able to prove that to the satisfaction of tho court. H8 wanted Mr. Mahonoy to promise him immunity if he told the whole story and turned state ovidence. To this, however, the county attorney made no prow- 150, He was 1if he had ever goue by the name of Gilover, He revlied that he pro- forrod not to answer that question. Shellenberger, he said, had done the kill~ ing aguinst tho wish of Neal, and after tho murder the latter remonstrated with him, claiming that it was not necessury to do away witk the old people in order to have driven off the cattle. To this Shellenberger rep!i were better out of the way anyway, body could tell what might turn up. Sherman was asked 1f he wero related to Neal, and replied that there wasno blood re-, lationship between them, but intimated that they were bound by ties which he would not mention, He scemed to have a deep feeling against Shellenberger, and this may be accounted for by the fuct chat it was Shelienberger's description of him and his reference to a third party, whic Sherman's 1dentification. Neal, it will be remembered, said nothing about a third party and claimed, as Sherman claims, that Shellenberger was the mur- dercr. As violent as his antagonism is to Shellenberger, his feeling for Neal seems to be of the most friendly description and leads him to insist that Neal “was guiltless of the shedding of the old people's blood. The revolver with which the deed was done was of 38-caliber, but he made no allu- sion as to what disposition was made of it. Greatly as Shellenberger fears Neal, Sher- mun seems to dread meeting Shellenberger, and the feeling is general among those who know him tbhat he will breuk down com- pletely when confronted by the Nebraska City suspect, Bek correspondent today discovered the evidence of Sherman’s connection with the crime 1 spots and streaks of blood on the tricot coat and vest which Sherman has been weariug in the jail. ‘These tell-talo evi- dences, it seoms, have been overlooked. ince his incarceration Sherman has been cretly wasking the vest and coat and has succeedel in obliterating many of the crim- son stains. In fact, & large part of this was accomplished before ho was sus- pected of having been connected with the murder, There is one spot, however, which remans untouched that is on the inside of tho vest, Itis about the length of a cigar, of a dark red color, and ap- vears on the lining outside an inuer pockot.

The prisoncr was imwediately placed in a closed carriage, and, accompau- ied by the sheriff, Detective Haze and the ro porter, ariven to the county jail. Scarcely bad tho carriage door been closad when Sheriff Poyd remarked to the prisoner “Youni man, I have seen you before."

At one timo ho leanod back and remarked to the officers: I hope you are lnklnz me to a decent place, for that jail at Plattemouth is the worst vermin-ridden hole I ever was in. And what do you think?

Don’t you think so?” “‘That romains to _be found out,” repliea Sherman, and, as if to change the subject, leared forward and resumed his observation of the streets. “Thero was not o person waiting to sea the prisoner ds he passed from the carriage to the jail.

S A 1-PROHIBITION, lowa Republicans Call a Conferenos to Get the Ligquor Law Modifi:d. Des Moixes, Ia, March 21.—As a result of several wee! work in correspondence and personal visits, the committee appointed to arrange for astate conference of anti- prohibition republicans has issued the fol- lowing call. The organization started ounly o few weeks ago has already secured the co-operation of over five thousand of the most active republicans in the state. The business men especially, who are tired of prohibition, havo wost numerously joined the organization. Many prohibitionists, who aro ready to concede local option, leaving prohibition whera it is effective, are inter- ested in tho movement. The conference will mark a new era in Iewa politics, kx Governor Kirkwood heads the movement, and will attend the conference, Anti-prohi bition republicans think they see in this movement an opportunity to get their party out of a rut, and upon the platform of the party in the other states, The call, signed by a nnmber of repre- sentative republicans of the state, is as follows: Auv informal meeting was recently held in Des Moines, at which the attitude of the republican party respecting prohibition was considered. The meeting was com. posed of republicans who, while 1n accord with the party, aisapprove the existing vrohibitory law, ana for that reason some of them have been unable to give the party full support in state and county elections. The situation seemed to warrant o meeting of republicans, holding substantially similar views, from all parts of the state. It was thereforc resolved to propose a_conference of those who favor and will assist in securing such a modificas tion of the present prohibitory law as will extend local options to certain communities. At the meeting mentioned, the undersigned were authorized and directed to make the necessary arrungewents for the conference. In accordance therewith, the several coun- ties of the state are wvited o select deleza- tious, to weet at the Grant Republican club rooms in Des Moines, on April 2, 1800, at 2 clock p. m., for the purnose of taking such action upon the subject as thoy may then de- termino. In counties in which no organization exists or may be effected it is honed that any per- sons in sympathy with the objects of the conference will bo present, and they wiil be recognized as if regula accredited. Re- duced rates upon the various railroads of the gtate are beiog secured. The call is signed by S. J. Kirl City; Craig L. \\'rlxllt J ) . Lane, Daven- 2 i Sam D.

A Complicated Law Suit at Olay Oen- ter—Three Thousand Bushel of Corn Destroyed by Fire Near Doniphan, The Furst Murder Trial Frewoxt, Neb, March 21L.—[Special to Tue Bee|—In the Furst murder trial today a large number of witnesses were ex- amined, and a great deal of damaging testi- mony was brought out. As the trial pro- gresses it becomes more and more apparent that the accused stands guilty of the crime charged*® against him. The prisoner has made two or three full confessions of the deed sinte his capturé, and his trial is a matter of form only—fulfiliment of the con- stitutional right of a trial by jury. Tho testimony today covered the commis- sion of the murder and almost every move- ment of the murderera frowa that time until their capture two days later. The witnesses detalled the finding of Puisifer’s body in the road: the wounds wilich were on it and the bullets that were found in the clothing and extracted from the wounds; the prison- er's u[»flc;lrum‘e at the farm houses of Fred Hoppe and August Shoemaker, first before the shooting and afterward about 9 o'clock the house of the former, where Furst and Shepard bought a loaf of bread; aiso their return to Scribner the next night but one after the crime with horses which they had stolen und rode into town that night; of their departute from the barn; of their cap- ture the noxt dauy. Charles Robinson de- tailed the arrest of Furst, which was two miles northwest of Crowell, a little south of tha Cuming covunty line. Kurst nhad on his person at that time a large revolyer, a bunch of keys, a hinge key, a pocket knife, glass cutter, pair of steel pincers or nippers and two pocket books: that the prisoner was very much frightened whon he was arrested and showed signs of fatigue from his wan- derings and sleeplessness; that he had horso hair on his clothing, as if he had been riding horseback, the color of this hair correspond- ing with that of one of tho horses found in Joe Shephara’s corral at Scribner the morn- ing of the day of Furst's capture.

Messra, I'red Burkland and Nels Nel- son of Verooa, this county, came to town and entered complaint against one Daniel Hartoett, charging him with running a hot lunch counter In Verona and and selling alcoholic liquors without a license. Two warrants were 1ssued against kLim, one for his arrest and the other to search his place of business for lLiquors. Warrants were given to Constable L. Gardner, He did not find the accused in his pluce of business, but secured a koy and entered it and found a quantity of cider, ginger ale and birch beer. bringing the same here. On the morning of the 20th Constable Garduner received a telophone message say- ing Mr. Hartnett was there. He telephoned buck asking Constable Learch to arrest him and hold him until he could get there. Upon Constable Gardner's arrival in Sut- ton he found the accusea in Constable Learch’s care. Constablo Learch turned over to Constable Gardter the accused, but immediately arrested him on the charge of burglary or unlawfully entering the place of business of Mr. Hartnett. ‘Then the trio started for the office of Justice Braitch of Sutton, the accused in the care of Constable Gardner and Gardner in the care of Consta- ble Learcti. County Attorney Eppersot was telephoned to come over and defend Consta- ble Gardner. On his arrival he dismissed the case against him. Attorney Hairgrove, attorney for the accused Hartuett, asked the Justice for the privilege to sea the warrant which had been issued for Consta- ble Garduer, Ho was informed that it had not been returned yet. Thereupon he went to Constable Learch and asked to seo it, and upon receiving it he tore it to pioces. Justice Braith had Attorney Hairgrove ar- rested for destroying the warrant, and thus rests the cas Hartnett gave bond for his appearance be- fore the county judge on the 25th of thia month.

JESSIE WHII'E The Author of the Persecuting Lot tera Still Undiscovered. Ciicaco, Mareh 2L+ [special Telogram to Tue Bee|—The myatery which surrounds the Jessio White tragpdy at Joliot is still un- solved. No clug to the ywhiter of the perse- cuting lettors has been found and the com- munity is wildly conjéctiiring over the sen- sation as to the authort? the lotters and the motives which produded them. David White, who wak tried for the of fense and simply bound over to keep the peace, is a cousin to the dead girl. He is very free to say that the whole affair origi- nated in the White family, That o brother of the young lady who has been estranged from the family for teri yoars and foels spito toward them leads many to believe he may be the writer, Rumors in regard to the terrible affair fly thick and fast. ‘I'he public sentiment is chunging and many believe that the fated young lady was herself tho author of the mysterious letters, Color is lent to this theory by those who worked on_the case trying to find the letter flends. Officers and detectives woro placed around the White residence night and day, Detectives slept inside the house with their heads to the doors and on awak- ening would find the mysterious letters lying by their side. It is their beiief that every- thing that detective skill could do was done to catch the supposed fiend and their failure together with the peculiar manner of the dropping of letters around them in the house, the tying of crape on the door, and the un- successful efforts 1o gain even a clue to the author, leads them to suspect that thero 18 a skeleton in the closet of the Whito faimily. That there are reaaons for such an_opinion cannot bo denied, but that tho young lady gu]n\ulf is the author of tno letters is beyond o The detectives engaged by the nows- papers here agree that it must have been dome by some ous in the family, It does not seem possible, for the letters were malled evorywhero— in Chicago, in JKansas and on miduight trains at different places. Theso letters mailed oo trains would bear the railway post mark. In fact, it cannot be possible that the young lady was the author. The only reason why her brothor is suspected is because he has been ostranged from the family and his writing on_investigation bore some resem- blance to the strange back hand of the letter tiend. - A special dish for labo in Tue SuNpay BEe. R FEMALE FIGHT A Disgraceful Set-To Between Two Allezed Society Belles. CuicAGo, March 21.—|Snecial Telogram to Tne BEE.|]—A most interesting fight oc- ourred last night between two young ladies prominent in Milwaukee avenue society cir- cles. Ior some time past thore has been bad blood between them, owing to the fact that both were enamored of the same young man, the most graceful dancer and hand- somest *‘parti’’ at the Measure club. One of the young ladics is o nandsome blonde and the other 1s a striking brunette. Their names are suppressed oy their friends for obvious reasons. Last night the young 1adies, each accompanied by several friends, met on Milwaukeo avenue, For several days the foud between them had been particularly bitter and the bru- nette took occasion to‘muke a most spiteful remark about the blonde. The blonde re- sponded to her hated rival with much spirit, and for a few minutes emthots, charges and countercharges were bandied. At lgngth, goaded to madness by the obloquy heaped upon her by her dark-hawred rival the blonde reached out her nervous little fiug- ers, and when she withdrew them suddenly two tufts of dari browu hair fluttered to the sidewalk and were scrambled for as momen- toes of the octasion by the gentlemen pres- ent, ‘Phen at it they went, 'I'hey scratched, bit, pummeled and tore-cach other's clothing in strips, ‘The brunette was somewhat groggy when the second round commenced, but she went 1 with a vigor thatin o few minutes left lier rival's beauty +in w sad wreck. The blonde had now a double object for revenge, and with a rush which would have been a credit to a professional fighter she forced her opponent against the wall and seizing ner dress had soon made honors easy. By this time both girls were exhausted and their friends prevailed on them to retire from the ring.

It is an absolute fact that there is not ono pas- senger agent among them who belioves any one of his competitors will preserve tariff rates, no matter at what figure they are put. Kach oue of them says the only effact of a raiso in rates will be to allow his competitors that much much more leeway in scalping and commission paying.
