FINDING VERDICTS WITHOUT EVIDENCE Judge Scott Sets ® Verdiot Aside and Gives His Roasons—Ed Morearty Dis- charged In the Criminal Court— Trouble Over Oil Land Clalms, The twelve men tn Judge Scott's court, who listened to the law and the evidence 1n the case of the Phenix Publishing company against 12d E. Powell, a suit brought to re- coverona bill that was due and unpaid, learned several things yesterday. The caso went to the jury and yesterday when the men came into court, it was toannounce through their foreman that they had found for tho defendant. DIt was the finding thuy {nduced the court to deliver a lecture. He said that during the trial it was observed that the defendant introduced mo testi- mony in dispute of the claim, which fact alone would bar the jury from returning the yerdict. Not only that, but one of the jurors went to sleep in' the jury box and wice had to be waied up by the bailiff, which made it apparent that one man at teast did not hear all of the evidence, “So long as I remain upon tho bench,” continued Judge Scott, “I will not sumbit'to a jury re- turning a verdict that is absolutely contrary to the law and the evidence. This verdict is not sustained by any law, nor by any of the evidence adduced, and therefore 1 will set iv aside, doing 0 upon my own motion,” Trouble Over an Ol Clalm, Judge Eller is devoting his time and atten- $ion in trying to unravel the dificulties that exist between Jemes L. Lovett and W. W. Lowe, the plaintiffs, and Michacl Duffy, the defendant, The plaintiffs are suing to pecover the sum of §300, while the defendant In his cross bill asks for a judgment of $1,000, even money. All of the troublo rows out of some old claims loc: Vyoming, and it is alleged in the pe thatithe plaintiffs were the owners of such claims at the time when they hired the defendant to go out into the wilder- mess and develop the properties. His work, 80 they allege, was to dig a hole 4 feet wide, 0 feet long and 10 foet deep on each claim. This digging he did not per- form and for this reason they claim that they were damaged in the sum of #6500 and that the balance of the debtis for goods which were furnished. Duffy avers that he was misled by being told that the oil claims were close to town, when in fact they wore forty miles from any ettloment and far away the mountains, n reach them he nearly killed his hors sud exposed himself to'sundry and di dangers, passing through a country wheroe Bt all times he was in mortal fear of being dealped by hostile Indians. Dismissed tho Kotchum Boodle Cas Eda F, Morearty, tho ox-city councilman, is put of the woods, so far as the prosecution of the charge that he looked upon the boodle of the Ketchum Furniture company is con- eerned, as the county attorney hus entored nolle in the caseand 1t has been cken from the ket of the criminal division of the district court. A couple of years ago when the numerous furniture companies were bidding on the furniture for the city hall thers were fi'y stories afloat, to the effect that lorearty, who w then a member of the ety council, had taken some of the woney *of the IKetchum company, promising infiu ence when the matter got iuto open council These stories beca ic pre that the truth they might be bran: juages of tho distri llr{ to invesiigate. The result was th dictment was retwrued, subsequently be followed Dy a trial and a verdict of ac- quittal. There wero other indictments growing out of the same charges, but they have remained upon the criminal docket without being called for trial. Moshier spars for Time. That something is about to ‘drap” in tho ‘Mosher case was made pretty plain yester- day afternoon by the presenco about the federal courtof several of the bank wrecker's friends and one of the attorneys for the re- ceiver of the Capital National bank. Mr. Mosher was about tho al’'s office nearly all and was in consultation with Mr. Charles Magoon and Mr. Ha , who is looking after the Capital National busi- ness for the receiver “There are numerous matters,” Mosher explained to Tue Bee reporter, ‘‘that I can straighten out for the stockholders of the bank if I am only given time and an oppor- tunity to do it, butif I am hustled off to Sioux Falls for five y they will have to fight the thing out as best they can. I am ready at any time to take whatever the court sees fit to give me. but it wonld be an accommodation to the other men in the holo if Iwere allowed a short time in which to help them get the affairs in better shape.” Bill Dorgan was _about with his friend most of the day and when not talking with Mosher he was in consultation with the marshal or the district attorney. Dorgan appears to be determined to stay by Mosher until he sees the doors of the penitentiary close_behind him, It has been suggested that Dorgan really felt fearful that Mosher might break down at the last minute, Mosher’s attorney, Mr. Whedon, is now engaged in a law suit that he says he cannot leave. Had it not been for this engagement it is mo; han probable that Mosher would have been arraigned today. Judge Dundy says that he will hear no more jury cases until he knows positively what is going to be dono with the Mosher case. The jury funds are almost exhausted and all that now remains of the fund will be needed for that one case if Mosher should decide to fight it. If he pleads guilty, as seems to be the most probable course, the services of a jur{ will Tot be needed more thun a couple of hours in the case, Should Mr. Mosher be sentenced to a term in the peniten v it is whispered that he will not go to the penitentiary at Lincoln, as many have been lead to suppose. It is said that he w ken to the United States prison at Sioux Fulls, S, D, Other Court Cuses. M. J. Minor was before Judge Keysor yesterday and was sent down to the Dorgan cell house at Lincoln, theve to remain during the period of three years. Minor is tho man who went through the Union hotel and stole a suit of clothes, and while on nis way out of the building held up s man, relieving him of a gold watch and chain, Alexanaer Taylor, o colored man charged with having shot with intent to kill, was fined §100, the costs, und sentenced toa term of three months in the county jail. Taylor escaped a prison sentence by the jury having roturned o verdict of assault and battery, The following cases were nollied by the county attorn The stute against James Cartin, obtaining mou under fulse pre- tenses; Charles 1, Lo 1 and Goorge Pet reniing rooms for gambling purposes; i Thornton and Horace Deunett, unlawfully taking and using horse, aud Louis Hausen, perjury The heirs of the late James Trall, who died at his residence, Nineteenth and Lake streots, huve filed o petition in the probate court asking thatthe widow, Jane S.

The estate consists of real estate valued at $6000 and personal proverty of the value of §1,900, Carl Woodworth has securcd a temporary ;n,u..unu. restraining the city treasurer rom collecting the tax to pay the cost of paving the alley from Twenty-second to Twenty-third and between Lake and Ohio streets. The case will be called for a hear- ing in: Judge Walton's court next Monday morning. Mr. Woodworth's grievance arises from the fact that the alley was paved with red Colovado sandstone, when the white Colorado was the material designated in the petition of the property owners. The case of the Bohn Sash and Door cowm- pany agawst several insurance compunies, which has been dragging its weary length through the federal court for five or six days, was terminated today when the jury brought in a verdict for the plainuift, FALCONER UNLOADING One Case of Printed Pongoe W ash Goods, 260 Quality, Today 9c.

Senator Roach has not acted with the committee, “lam here.” said the senator to a re- porter for Tur Ber, “to examine packers and stock men and learn where the stock shipped into South Omaha is produced; to find out how much of 1t is disposed of here, what per cent is sent away and where it 18 finally used; to learn something of the competition; to get the prices paid for stock since the time the yards were established, the yard charges, commissions of salesmen and rates of trans- portation both in aud out of South Omaha. And then, with all things considered, to as- certain what effect is being produced by these things on the producers of the stock.” “The committee first visited Chicago and examined tho packers and live stock dealers and ofticers of the Stock exchangeand Board of Trade to ascertain the rango of country from which these supplies are received und what is done with the receipts in Chicago, what countrics th distribute in, cost of paid and received and " the r is gaining or losing by methad of handling grain and stock, In Minneapolis they examined the millers in buyers to learn how they collecy the grain for the clevators, the cost of the mills, and, in fact, the history of merchant milling, to flnd out who g iced rates of tra stigate the alleged di long haul to Liverpool over the shorter haul to Ne York and Boston, n South Omaha Mr. Peffer goes to s City and then to ‘lopeka, From the place he will visit the capitals of ve or fiftcen grain producing es in tand compile a report for the Agri department.
