o THE OMAHA DAILY BEE, "THURSDAY. AUGU 13, 1891, SHERWOOD'S SCARED SLAVES Members of the Colored Boys' Band Obey Their Master, THEY TESTIFIED AS HE TOLD THEM. Trial in Police Court that Were Heard Neighbors ~-Other The Case on ~S8crea by th Local News. Fvangellst Sherwood marched his little baud up Jackson street to the police station at 0:30 o'clock this morning with horns blow- ing and drums beating as if he seriously meditated a chargo on the place and its occu pants, Ho stopped in front of tho police court room and the racket was so great that all proceedings were stopped until Judge Hels ley ordered Court Officor Koyser to go out and put a stop to it. Keyser did stop it with out any regard to the music, and it broke off in the middle of a bar as suddenly as if a cyclone had happened along. Whatever doubt may have existed regard fng the guilt of the man Sherwood, in his leged inhuman treatment of tha little colored staves who are being carted over the country 1o make a living for him, was speedily dissi pated in the minds of tho crowd of polic ocourt spectators who heard the testimony of the little boy, Lai Mitchell, when the case was called for trial. After several witnesses had testified to hearing the blows infficted by Sherwood last Tuesduy afternoon and the bewging and pleadiug of the little fellows whilo the “Kev. BN 8 continued - to- show heavy blows thick and fast upon them, Mitchell was placea upon the stand. Not- withstanding the fact that less than balf an hour before when called out of Shewood’s presence he had told the prosecuting attor- ney of the brutal treatment nccorded the boys: that he wanted to get avny and go nome to New Orleans; that Sherwood had agreed 1o keep ! away only two months, nd that he was afraid to even ask Sherwood to take him home; yet when placed on tho stand with the defendant Sherwood sitting but a few fect nway and almost in front of him, he swore that he wanted to stay with Sherwood as long as he lived: that he was whipped on the day in question for misbe- having on the street: that he was only struck once, und thut acother boy was struck Lwi and dnother three times: that the instrument of punishment was n_iittie strap, and that the olows did net hurt; that thero were no screams and no erying; that the boys mevely asked “Dr.” Sherwood's pardon; that this was the only whipping be had given them: that Sherwood mever said anything about taking him home in two monihs: that the boys were well fed and nicely clothed ana kindly treated; that ho was 0 from a taki wd was being brought up to vers every night and be u nice leman. "According to his state- its Sherwood was the very personification n tuct an archangel out on a my of goodness vacation, und they were the most blessed beines on earth to be permitted to travel along in his company. Although the boy had been questioned by the defendaat’s counsel in full view of score of spectators after the prosecutivg attorney had gotten through with him just before tho c was called, yet he swore on the stand that such was 1ot the case aud that neither Sher- wood or his attorney bad spoken to him. He was repeatedly asked about it, yeu clung. to s original story tenaciously. This was what satisticd the spe tators be- yond any question that the boy was tellin what had been tnoroughiy drilled into him, and what bud to be maintained or suffer somo much dreaded penally.

For Nearly Twenty Years the Bridge Bond Fund has Been Misap- plicd—Now There's a Big Shortage. Ere many days some one will be called be- fore the captain and asked o explain why there was 8 money in the county to pay off the $158,000 of railroad bridge bonds that be- came due July 1 As i3 woll known, twenty years ago Doug- las county voted 230,000 of 7 per cent bonds to aid in the construction of the railroad bridge over tho river between Omaha and Council Bluffs, The taxpayers realized that their taxes had been high, but they registere no kick, supposing that a portion of the lev was for the purpose of creating u siuking fund to pay off the indebtedness, However, they were confronted with a sur- prise a few weeks ago when Tue Bee furnished the information that tue bo were duo and that there was but $7,039.41 in the bond and siuking fund to liquidate a debt of £158,000. The commissioners made a lame explana- tion by statiug that they supposed the bonds were due January 1, 1802 instead of July 1, 1801, The explanation was taken for what it was worth, and but little was said, whilo the commissioners attempted to refund for another twenty years. An examination of the records of the coun- ty ofticers disclose some startling-facts and a thorough investigation will be demanded by the Real Estate Owners' association. This investigation will show that for years the commissioners have juggled with the funds; that the bond fund has robbed ght and left and instead of usiug the money for one pur pose, it has been used for all purposes except that for which 1t was intended. The records show that priov to 1876 the sinking fund was kept intact, but since thon there have veen acts committed that must be explained. January 1, 1876, there was a balance of £38.40142 on he1din the bond sinking fund. During the year th re was collected and added to the amount the sim of £7,576.21. “This witnessed the robhing of Peter to pay Pruul. By a resolution adopted by the county board $1,700 of this money was transferred to county roed and oridge funa; $»,000 wi into county general fund used for paving warrants, In 1877 the sum of £31,574.24 was collecte this together with the ®21.0: from priov years was usod to pay coupons and redeem bonds. The balance was com- pletely wiped out and remained so until | 5 was collected. OF this amount ed for paying coupons and 24 transferrea to the general fund. Tu 1850 the treasaver collected $44,071.54 of the levy made for a sinking fund to redeem bonds, but instead of the money being used for that purpose, the books show that war- ts in the sum of $3.572.10 o decmed. was loft in the treasury & nce was carried on and in 1851 tho nd §10, 12 The This baj sum of $4: 7S was collected, when another raid was made and warrants for $39,034.30 drawn against the fund, This left a balance of $10,034.30. The ne FHLON vd, $10,474, fund; balances were mada od Tt ot tho road court house #10,180, was ear, however, all was triinsfe £2,040.46 to fund; 7828 " to the fund, and the balanc used for paying warrant At the beginning of 1553 there was not a dollar in sight, but that year the treasurer collected $52,238.66, of which sum £i1,245.90 was used for paying warrants, During the year 1S54 £532,260.24 was col- lected and the fund again depleted by having warrants for $43,043 drawn against the bal- 31.41 was collected,but insten of being used in theslegimate way warrants were drawn against the balance and $1, 541.50 was dispo During 1856, of bridge tax was collected, That year the comwissioners were uot satistied * to take _the . wholo amount but went further and took some of .the balanco that had been left from the previous vear and drew 57 against the fund. Iu 1857 the commissioners excecded all former efforts, as thoy required two state- ments from the trcasurer, - In January three was money in the fund and $43,82050 co lected prier to July 1. Against this warrants for £7,665.80 were drawn. During the last six months of the year the treasurer collected £11,625.17, but it did vot go to pay off the bonded indentedness, as $15,015 went out to cancel warrant The year 1850 was a cood_one, payers contributed $44 as the ta: towa issued by the superintendent of buildings | the bonds, It never paid any ever, and the chances ai that, it never will, for of this sum $32,157 was used up in paying warrants. Coming down nearer to the present date, it is evident that the commissioners had a mis guided idea and supposed they had mone hand to vay off the maturmg bonds, for in 1584 they failed to make any levy, but not- withstanding alt of this the county treasuver gathered in £14,362.70 of bridge boud fund, but iteould not remain in the treasury. Before the end of the year it was all paid out and more with it, as during that year warrants for $35,- n 334,71 were drawn o st the fund. “The year 1500 was even worse, as only the sum of 8 ) was collectod,” but this fact dia nov stop the = raid, and warrants for 52,032 wero drawn ugzainst und paid from the bond fund. On Junuary 1, 1501 there was a balance of 0,364,185 in the fund and §13,601.23 collected prior to July 1 “This wouid have given a total of §23,055.41 on hand, but on July 1, the day on which the 8105,000 of bonas became due even this small bulance was not on hand, ag §16,061 bad been drawn out to pay warrants, ‘The books of the country treasuver show that the Douglas county people have been liberal contributors and that wonths ago the: puid in wore than enough moncy to have taken up the bonds. hey also show that the funds have been diverted and instead of hay- ing 155,000 on hand July 1, when tho bonds became due, there was only the sum of £1,030.41 with which to cancel the old debt.

General Agent Nash of the Milwaukee road returned yesterday from Chicaco where hehas been in consultation with the manage- ment of the road Mr. Nash stated that it had been definitely decidea that nothing would bo done, for the prosent with the old “nail works" property. i property was bought by the Islund and Milwaukee roads for joint uso as a freight house but there was no necessity for such o frieght house at present as tho Union Pacirie handles all the freight of both rouds under the terms of the contract, both incoming and outgoing. Mr. Nash also stated that while the * prop- erty in question might be large enough for o freight louse for present use it would net answer at all for futuro years, “Is the admission of the Milwaukee and Rock Island into Oniha, over the bridge, go- ing to have any effect upon the discriminin- ation aguinst Omuha in the matter of freight rates as compared with the rate allowed Council Blufls " was asked Mr. Nash, 1 think it will have s direct bearing upon the matter,” rephed Mr Nash. — *T'his ques- tion has boen before the Western Traffic as- sociation for several months, having been raised by the Omaba merchants, nd it is hard to say when a decision will be reached, but the merchants may rest assured that the Milwaukee will do as much for them as any other road It be remembered that this s a question which bhas boen agitated by the merchants of this eity and tho board of trade for several y The freight rates, west bound, out of Omahi and Council Bluffs, and east 'bound, into both cities, arc the sam but east bound es ont of Omaha are higher than out of Council Bluffs.
