R, Nie Criminally Assault tura Brown—Sal of Nlack olson A ed of Attempting to Conr-01d Ve C. R. Nicholson, the newly elected alder- man from the Sixth ward, is charged with having attempted a criminal assault upon Vetura Brown, the 13-year-old stepdaughter of G. W. Adams, who lives at the corner of Broadway and Seventecnth street. The circumstances of the case, so far as th have become known, have set the public in an uproar, and the excitement in the west- ern part of the city is at fever heat, An in formation was filed by Adams with the city clerk Friday night. Nicholson at the time 1s in Nebraska engaged in working up a il estate deal, but as soon as he learned t had been done he returned and sur- rendered himself to the city officials, He found no difficulty in securing a bond in the sum of 1,000, and was immediately released. He at once qualified and took the oath of office as alderman. The bond, in fact, had been already sccured for him by his friends before he returned, Adams is one of the notorious point” family, who have been cultivating m police headquarters from 'way back, and his story is conseguently taken with a good many grains of sait by the many people in Council Bluffs who believe Nichol son incapable of committing so outrageous a rime, Nicholson keeps his horse in a barn in the rear of the house occupied by Sandy- W. C. Jenkins on Avenue C, near the corner of Twenty-sixth street. On the evening of Pebruary 16 he was at the barn, and it is there Adams claims th She informed one of her girl friends of what nad taken place, only a few minutes later, and all the circumstances appeared - to bear out her story. Says it Was for Political That something of the kind was in the the wind has been known to a few persons for the past three weeks, but it wus kept very quict, there being considerable uncer- tainty us to what effect the story, if told, would have on the aldermanic contest in thé Sixth ward. In the meantime the police have been busy working up the evidence, and the preliminary examination will take place Monday morning in police court Nicholson claims to have known of the charge that was made against him forseveral weeks past, but supposed that it was in- vented for political pu and that noth- ing would bo heard of it after election. He denies absolutely knowing anything about it, although he admits having scen the girl run’ ning about the Jenkins house on several oe casions, Mrs. Sophia Jenkins and Percy Thornton, the former the wife of an employe of the motor company. and the latter a son of prominent stocl part of the city, were also arvested on in- formation filed by Adams, and if they have been connected with the case in the way Adams states there is an opening for u couple of score of men and a couple of stout hemp roves. Young Thornton is_charged with the same kind of offense as Nicholson and the woman is accused of being an uc cessory to the crime. Adams says he gave his_stepdaughter permission to stay at the ., as Mrs. Jenkins was alone a hare of the time. On the night of y 12 Mrs. Jeukins managed to get girl was assaulted ot. “Thornton and the girl into a bed room together and locked the door on them. Thornton, he claims, had all but accom- plished his fiendish purpose when some one came to the house. He escaped by clamber- ing out of the window. Offored to Compromise for Money. Considerable aiscredit attaches to these stories as told by Adams, on account of his previous bad veputation. The girl is a datighter of jack Brown, another notorious character about town. Her mother was di- vorced from Brown and shortly afterwards was married to Adams. Nicholson claims Brown offered to compromise his share of the lll‘lllcuhy for 81,000, but the offer was re- jected. The affair has caused a tremendous sensa- n, and it is the subject of discussion on all t corners, to the almost entire exclusion all other topics. A number of sturdy democrats offered to see that the Adam: outfit was run out of town before Sunday niorning if Nicholson would only the word, fi(nn Nicholson wisely concluded to let the word remain unsaif Percy Thornton, d. the young man who is charged with being concerned in the case, denies ever having done anything wrong, although he admits having been at the Jen- kins house on the night in question. He cluims his arrest is simply a blackmailing scheme, A rather sensational feature was added to the case lust evening by the circulation of o rumor to the effect that the arrest of Mrs. Jenkins and young Thornton was part of a scheme on the part of Nicholson to injure the girl's reputation and make his own es. cape certain, Those who circulated the jor thought that Mrs. Jenkins was v to the plan. This theory has a very bbable appearance at first sight, but today’s developments may throw some light on the case. PLANNING FOR A FIV -CENT FARE, Five Hundred Citiz Hold a Meeting at the Court House a Discuss Measure A genvine New England *“town meetin’ » was held at the court house last evening for the purpose of discussing ways and means for securing the much coveted reduction in transportation rates between Omaha ana Council Bluffs. Fully 500 representative cit- izens were present, and while there was not a great deal of the effervescent kind of en- thusiasm on tap that usually disapp be- fore the next day rolls around, there was ample evidence of a determination to see that the results of the meeting do not end in talk, Lucius Wells was called to the chair and pencer Smith was chosen secretary. After the object of the meeting had been briefly stated Jam McCabe was called to the floor and made an address, in the course of which he reviewed the history of the moter company’s operations from the time its §57,- of 000 of capital stock had been invested until now, when by repeated dilutions with water it has come to be quoted at £1,500,000, and the company has become able to declare dividends of 55 cents on the dollar. He referred to the repeated iolations of faith on the part of the com in the matter of paying for paving in 'ctions and between the rails and put- ung the streets into good condition after being torn up by the company. He called attention to the bad faith that was mani ted by the company in trying to get rid of duties imposed upon it by its charter, by claiming never to have laid down a rail under the provisions of the charter. Mr. McCabe's effort was greeted by a vig- orous round of applause at its counclusion, and then T Evans was called uvon for a | speech. He told how the property owners along Broadway had been taxed to the amount of $200,000 in order that the street might be paved to the r , thus enabling the company to secure o good driveway to and from its bridge. The company is able, suid he, to run its trains ona 5 cent ba and make mouey—not so much at first perhaps, but after the brief temporary shrinkage caused by the change there would undoubtedly be enoagh of un incre se in the amount of business done to more than make up the difference. When he was a l,mn'm\wr of the company he was always in avor of a straight 5 cent fare. and not any partial reduction in the shape of & commu- tation ticket good for thicty days. He then read the paper which he circulated among the merchants of the city a fow days ago and which was mentioned in Tii: Beg at the time, and the signatures of more than 100 business men who had put themselves down lm black and white us favoring a b cent fare. All but two of the representutive bus- dealer living in the western | iness men to whom it had been presented tind willingly put down thelr names, Frank Trimble was the next speaker, Ho thought a free bridge, to enable the 150,000 people of Omaha and the 85,000 of Council Blufts to mingle freely in business was the one thing most necessary to the financial welfare of both cities. Ho wanted to se some action taken that would put an end to Johin T. Stewart's and A, K. Stone's running the city at their own sweet will. William Siedentopf read o paper showing that the in erease in the population of the Sixth ward, which should naturaliy profit most from the expenditure of the 200,000 referred to by Mr. Evans in paving West Brondway, had been only 900 since the bridge wrs built and the motor line commenced operations, while the increase in cach of the various other ards had ranged all the way from 1,000 to 2,140 At this point Mr. appoint a committee of ten, whose should be to appoint another committe abe moved that the duty it of 100 to co-operate with the city council and as- sist in obtaining the desired end.

Plummer, A. ¢ ller, Pat jounnoude, William Siedentop! After a short speech from W. F. Baker, €. M. Hart was colled upon. He pointed out the factthat the Motor company could re- its fare to 5 conts and then pay the in- st on the bonds outstanding, pay all the cxpenses of operating the line, provide sinking fund for paying off the bonds and then make more money in proportion to the actual amount invested than is made by any business man in Council Bluffs with an cqual outlay of br Spencer Smith made un address in which he stated the legal as- pect of the case. Phe company, he said, has repudiated the charter of 1536 and claims to be running under that of 1808, which expires next August. Then it will be necessary for the company to come before the city council and sk for some move privileges. When this occurs thecity will be in 4 position to dictate terms, At the close of the speech of Mr. Smith a resolution was introduced by Mr. McCabe to instruct the committee of 100 to appoiut subcommittee, whose duty it shall be to con- sult with the citizens (of Omaha with refe- rence to the erection of a new free bridge b tween the two cities at the foot of Farnam str This resolution was adopted unini- mously. after which the meeting adjournc to reassemble on Saturday evening, March 25, FIRST BLOOD FOR HATHAWAY. Luck is with the Democratie € Third Ward A meeting of the city council called for last ovening for the purpose of allowing Messrs. I, O, Gleason and J. J. Hatheway to decide by drawing lots which of them should represent the Third ward the council during the next two years, had been intended first to have the drawing take place on Monday, but Captain Hatha- way received word of his futher's serious iil- ness in Conneaut, O., and to accommodate him the date was changed The council chamber was well filled with the friends of the parties most intimately concerned, in spite of the fact that no vublic announcement had been made. 'Ten shos of paper were cut, nine of them blank and the other containing that interesting word, selected, The slips wer the drawing suddenly discov nndidate for Aldermun. was It then deposited in a hat and wbout to begin, when it was ed thut one of the requi ites to the drawing, viz., Gleason, was not there. His attc G. Suunders, an- nounced that Gleason did not care to tuke part in the drawing, although he did not in- tend to raise any question of the notice which had been served on hiu Captain Hathaway was on the floor and was about to draw the firsv slip out of the hat when his attorney, T 13. Casady, called him down. as to the legality A hurried consultation ensued, at the cnd of which Hathaway decided to toliow ( on's example and withdraw from the drawing. Mayor Lawrence then undertook the duty of drawing for both candidate: as the law provide He took out blanks each for Hathaway and Gle: and on the fifth crack out of the hat the word “elected, A whoop from the ass followed the announcement of the result, nd they all broke ard ran to catch up with Hathaway, who had left the council chamber as soon as the drawing commenced, What they did when they caught him is not a matter of record, but it is presumed that they celebrated the event in true demo- cratic style. Just what Gleason's action in the matter ns it is impossible to say at present, as attorney is very reticent on the subject. From other sources, however, it is reported he means to contest Hathaway's elec tion, and withdrew from the contest in order that he might lose none of his privileges in case he turned out to be theloser, The mat- ter will undoubtedly be brought into the courts before it 1s settled, and something is expected to drop in the course of the next two or three day: embled democrats Monday the Last Day.
