JUDGE SCOTT'S COURT WAYS Burt County Auor_n::'l‘ell of How They Have Been Terrorized. ATTORNEY PETERSON'S EXPERIENCE Ble Testitios Ag plains How Con net the dge and Ex. © Was Hauled Over the ~Tales from Others Who iave Suffered. Trramaw, Neb,, Oot. 27,—[Special Tele &ram to Tre Ber.|-The menbers of the Burt county bar, in noticeabio contrast with those of \Washington county, were not only ready but anxions to pour tales of wos into the cars of the bar committeo appointed to avastigate the complaints against Judge C. iR, Scott. The committee was represented by Auvtornays Gregory, Ambrossand Schomp of Omaha, For nearly fivo solid hours the Iawyers of this county, every man of them, with from one 10 a dozen grievances, criticised Judge Scott and lis metuods, and the only kind thing said of nim was by two witnosses, who thought ho meant to bo impartial. Much of $uis talk consisted of repetitions of wnay bad preceded, but in the aggrogate the wit- messes recounted & large numbver of ocour- rencoes in which they thought the judge had been unmannerly, insulting, arrogant, arbi- trary, false or ignorant, Peterson's Lute Exporience Edward W. Peterson, attorney, testified thatat tho recent termof court Judee Scott announcea during the call of the docket that he would not honor any stipulations between sttorneys for the continuance of case In one caso he was informea that the litigants themselves uhad sigoed a stipulation for a continuance, but he said that would make no difference. Witnoss stated to the court thatin two cases nego- tiations were 1n progress to settle them out of court. Scott answered that the litigants should have completed tueir sottle. ments before court began, and he notified the attorneys to ve ready for trial when the cascs wero called. In another case two mportant wit- nesses were 1 Dakola, No preceding judgo had ever refused to honor attorneys’ stipula- tlous for continnances, Witness denied positively that thers was any compact between Burt county attor- moys to evade trying cases before Scott, but admitted that ho preferred to &0 before other judges and would be influ- enced by that feeling in askins for continu- ances. In explanation hie said a report was current that Scctt,during his campiign, had romised to favor Attorncy Ashley in court n return for assistance in the poiitical can- vass, Witness related an nstance in which Scott scored him in an abusive tirade beforo & room full of people who wereiu sympathy with the opposing litigant. ‘They upplauded the court, and the judge paused cact time to permit it. He made no aitempt to eheck tho demonstrations. Witness under- took to remonstrate, but Sco't interrupted bim with the sharp ‘remark thut bo had lots more in store that would be much worse than anvthing ho had yet said. T'he witness exvlained in minute detail the iroumstances of the Kirkle caso in which 3ud.a Scott scored hum roundly in public aud denounced him as guilty of conspiring to defraud widow Kirkle of her estate for the beuetit of a hearticss money loaver. This is a case which attracted considerable notice in the newspapers at the time, and won the judge many compliments hecause ho sot asioe a deed by which the widow had conveyed tho farni to the mouey leuder. At the last term of court Seott directed Peterson to take up a certain cuse and argue & domurrer, The attorney explained that counsel had agreed to continue the case to the next torm and thut he was not_preparec totry it. Tne court asked three or four times if the attorney rotused and notifed him that it would cost any ofticor of tho court §100 to disobey its orders. Peterson repliea each timo with a proper show of re- spect that ho could not because he was un- prepared, aud the last time said: *You may take it as vou please.” Scott then directed the clerk to docket the caso of the state against T. C. Petorson. Attorney Gillis, whom witness haa called to his assistance, asked for timo to make a showing, but tho judge told him he could ot bave half au hour. The court then fined Peterson $100 for contempt. ‘The witncss thought Judge Scott unfit for tho bench, for the reasou that ho was not abis to write proper iustructions to jurles, becausc he made promises to at- torneys only o deny that he hud done so, be- causo hie was not honest, and because ho in- sulted aud deeraded attorneys before the public. Liked to Hear Popular Applause, W. G. Sears of Oaklend, attorney, said Judge Scott seemed to be trving to belitile attorneys in the eyes of court room aunai- ences, which had become much larger since hus going upon the bencb, The witness bad seen and heard audiences interrupt court proceedings with applanse. The stenogra- pher on one occasion said: “This is better than a circus,” and other mon made similar comments, The witness never observed that the judge made auy effort 0 quell these demonstrations, but ou the othor hand the court frequently paused 1n its proceedings until the applause subsided, The witness knew of no combination among attorneys to avold trying cases beforoe Judgo Scott. In one istanco a litigant told the judge ho was ready for trial, but the attorneys had agreed to continue it. The court said the lawyers mignt be dismissed, He then struck the case from the docket, but altoward. ‘Lo attornoys hud intended trying the case before Judge Scott at that time, but on learniog that he had beeu cited bufore a lunaey commission they concluded to postpone it because proceedings before Scott might prove voia. That was the only reason for the continuance. The witness said Judge Scott promised at- torneys permission o muke showings, and upon their proceeding 1o do so denied that he bad given such authority. His instruc- tions 1o juries were not filed before buing read. The paragraphs were not numbered, and the wriung wus 8o badly interlined that 1t was almost impossiblo to make heaa or tail 10 the instructions, S think,” sald the witness, “‘that Judge Scott is unfit for the bench beoause he is mentally unbalanced, and because bis con- duct toward the bar is outrageous and be- littling. I heara Judgo Barnes of Norfoik "{1; ‘L went through the war and faced rebol bullets, but I would rather go through apother war than practico vefore Scott Mr. Laroes had no cases bofore Judge Beott, but was o spectator of the court proceedings. ‘Tne mewbers of the Burt county bar held a meeting, and all butone exprossed the opinion tbat Scott was in- sane.’ T, R. Ashley, an attorney living a Decatur, corroborated Poterson'’s account of the el dents of the flning of the latter for contempt, The court was excited and glared ut Petorson sogrily. When the judge asked him if he bad anythiug to say be got up to speak, but the court ordered Bim 1o sit down snd re- fused him o hearing. The witness noticed tLat the court reporier did not wake a rec- ord of the contempt procaedings. In one caso the judge announced an outline ot the wsiructiovs he would give the jury, &nd tho attorney arguing the case at the tims close? tho argumeat in cousequence. The attorueys left tho court house, und on their return i ed that the court had 1nstructed 1he jury directly contrary 1o bis promise, Duribg Heolt's campaign for the judgesnip he was at Decatur and said to the witness: “Asubloy, I velieve you can do me some goed, and if you will do it and I am elocted and you have any proceedings vefore me it will go well with you, Mr. Gillis was preseut and heard it lp TOSPONS 10 & question. s to Scot's lment of biw since clection the wituess “l've been getting it in the neck th the rest of 'em. 1 do not think Judge tyis influenced by fear or favor towerd any attorney.

When asked if he had supported Scott in the eampaign the witnoss answerad : 1 hnte 1o say so, but I will say that [ ama repubiioan.’ Some of Scott's Peculinrities. H. Wade Qillis, A Tokamah attorney, cor- roborated Ashlay's statement about the *‘go- woll-with-you" remark of Scott. He after- wards had a talx with W. G. Sears of Uak- Iand and learned that Scott had mado a simi- lar proposition to that attorney. In tho trisl of a case in Washington county the witness read an authority that was not in accord with an opinion expressed by Scott. The judge ordered the attorney to “shut up,” suying he did not ‘‘want to hear auy more of that kind of law,” and refused to bear turther authoritie: 1n other cases Scott refused to let the wit- nesses real motions for new trials which were on filo, The witness once undertook to attack the court's instructions because they wera 8o badly written and intorlined as to be wholly unintelligible, but the court would not permit him to speak. The witness charged that Scott had refused to allow him exceptions, ana cited instances, 1o the Kirkle case tho judge left the beneh, sat down by the widow anda said to Gillis ! L nm going to protect this witness." “Would itnot be better, your honor, it you waited until she had béen attacked?’ asked the attorney. 4 “Woll, Lam going to help you,” responded Scott. Giillis sald he wanted no help, and asked that the reporter make a record of these pe- culiar proceedings, but the stenographer failed to doso, Mrs. Kirkle, being a Ger- man, the court suggested that the attorney had better not interrupt ber with objections, promising 10 note his exceptions afterwards, The record does not show the oxceptions, and when Gillis called Scott’s attention to the omission, the lavter denied having made the promise, Ploasant for the Attorneys. In another case Judgo Scott interrogated a witness, and fmong other things asked wnat his attoruey haa advised on a certain point. Tho lawyer ovjacted becausa that was a priv- ileged niatter.” The court turned upon the attoraoy ana said angrily : “You sit down and shut ur, aud 1 will give you ail the privileges you need.” Referring to an interview with Scott pub- hisned in the Omaha World-Herald, the wit- ness said “the statemonts wore false and tho dictator a falsifier."” He also corrovorated statements s to Scott’s bubit of forgetting promises 1o law- yers. In ono case Attorney N. J. Sheckell undottook to prove by other attornevs that the judge had prowised him an opportunity to make a showing, but the court refusod to listen, snying angrily : % 1 woulau t believe you, or them either. Sueckell bogan probarations to tako tho aflidavits of others who had overheard the conversation between himself and Scott, and the Ja'ter then reversed his ruling. ‘U'he witness produced a copy of the poti- tion circulated in Scott’s behalf during the recent unpleasantness ana offered circum- stantial evidence to show that 1t had been dictated by the judge and copied by his stenographer, Tho witness corroborated Peterson’s ac- count of his contempt case. He added: “Several times duriug tho day Scott cutled the sheriff to bim and asiked: ‘What have vou done with that man? 1Is he in jal, is he bebind-tlo bars ¢ When Scott learned of the habeas corpus proceedings ho stormed aud fumed in open court, declaring angrily that the county court had no jurisdiction and ordered the sheriff to go out and rearrest Peterson, threatening to tine him 1,000 if he retused to do so. The witnass, with bar docket in hand, ro- lated a grest number of cases of allegea irregularity and arbitraviness on the part of Judge Scott similar to those already do- scribed. In two instances the court an- nounced from the bench that suits would be dismissed, but tho record made mno such showing. In other cases tho docket recorded oroceedings that had never taken place, Other Witnesses Heard. N. J. Sheckell, counts at'orney, corrobor- ated preceding witnesses, and also referred wa will contest. The testator cut off some of his natural heirs \without legacies, and Judge Scott said in opon court: “I don’t thimk auyvody wno makes that kind of a will i quito right. Iam prejudiced against that kind of a will, and I want to tell you so right now, so you will know what'to expect.’ Ix-Senator J. R. Sutherlaud testified that on the day Peterson was_scored so umerci- fully Judge Scott meta Ber representative on the train coming up from Omaha. The Jjudge asked the correspoudent to be prosent av the evening session of tho court, saying that hie “‘would hear something that would be racy and that be supposed Tar Ber would like to get it.” T Bee man went to the court house as directed ana reported what occurred. 1.

Lixcouy, Neb,, Oct. 27.—|Special to Tar Bre.]—At the coroner’s itquest today over the body of Cuarles E. Lower, the young man found in a dying condition in the B. & M. yards Iast night,1t was developod that the man hiad met his death whilo engaged in coupling cars in the regular performance of his duty. It appoars that a number of cars which Lad besn condemned as being i1n *‘bad order” wero being about the vards and that on one of the cars the draw bar had been re moved and the car was attached to the next one to it by moans of a heavy chain, Lower went between the cars to fas ton tho chain, when tho enwine suddenly backed, crushing the unfortunate man be- tween tho cars so badly that he lived buta couple of hours. At tne inquest tha en gineer of the switch engiue testified that ho knew nothing of the occurrence untii two hours afterwards. He had moved the train avbout fifteen car lengths and then was given the signal to stop. He did so, and remained stationary for fifteen minutes, when he again moved his train 1 order to ailow a train to pass. He was of theopinion that theaccident occurred by reason of tho rebound of tho cars when he stopped bis engino so suadenly. ‘I'he testimony of W. H. Harlan, a switch- man who witnessed the accident, was much different from that given by the enginecer. He stated that with Lower ha went botwoen the cars to unfasten the chain; that Lower suddenly called upon him to jump; that he did so and nurrowly escaped being caught betwesn the cars, Lower jumped backiwards and was caught between the cars and dragged tue length of a car voforo the train stopped, Harlan claimed that the cars did not rebound but asserted that they wora backed by the engiue, The jury visited the scene of the accident and afterwards returned o verdict to the effoct that the accident was the result of un- foreseen causes. After Heavy Damages. After many delays the somewhat cele- brated case of Mary Clark against the Lin- colu (ius company came on for trial today in Judge Tuttle's court. Mary Clurk was for- merly the wifo of Wiiliam Dinncen, an_en- gincer in the employ of the gas company. On August 190, 1890, the boiler expioded and Oinueen was killed. His wife commenced suit for damages, piacing the amount at $10,000. She atierwards married again. The defeuso attempred to have the caso thrown out of court on the ground that the plaintift baving married again ceased to_ be the legat administratrix of tne deceased husband No. 1. The court gave tho plaintiff leave to file an amended petition, enabling her to suo as the porsounl representative of vhe deceased. The defense then set up the claim toat tho voiler had been guaranteed to be in a sufe coudition und that the accident was due en tirely to tho carelessness of the deceased.
