8 - BARNEY W'GINN H fingular Turn in His Case that May Have Some Significance, S A HOPE CHANGING HIS RESULT OF SENTENCE Extends the Date of the Eaecution Thus Ruming the Question of the Valldity of the sentence—Other Court Matters. Jndge Seott A fow days ago, when Barney McGinn was convicted of having murdered Edwara MeKenna and was afterwards brought into Scott's court and ntenced to be . the statement made that he would never aie at the end of a rope. The judge and others scoffed at the idea maintaining that the death penaity would be fmposed unless the governor commuted the sentence to life imprisonment, but subse- quent developments show that the men who the statement knew whereof they spoke, providing their construction of the law is correct, Now they notonly adhere to what they said at that time, but in addition thercto they claim that instead of Sheriff Drexel leading McGinn up to the scaffold on the day fixed for the execution, he will open the doors of his cell and turn him loose, @ free man it will afternoon made that during the 29 idge Scott art room No. lecture upon be remembere of December called McGinn before him in c 1, where, after reading him a the enormity of his crime, he sentenced hin to be hanged on April 6, 1 between 9 o'clock 8. m. and 4 o'clock p. m. of that d After imposing the death penalty Juc Keott ordered the prisoner 1nto solitary con- finement until the day of the execution. Did Not Allow One Hnndred Duys, The law of the state makes it mandatory upon the judee of any of the courts of the state to allow 100 days to intervens between the imposing of the sentence and the time of 1ts being carried into execution, where the penalty is death On the day of the sentence McGinn was taken back to the county Jail, where he en- tered upon the sentence imposed by being locked in the solita But the next day, Saturday, . Judge Scott discovered that he had n - tion on dates, and instead of having given MeGinn the allotted 100 days required by the terms of the statutes he nad allowed ki but ninety-eight. That afternoon Mc( was taken from the cell in the jail and again taken into court, where he was resentenced 10 bo hanged, the_time for the execution be- ing fixed for April 13, or ata date just one weel later than was fixed upon a former oc- casion Lawyers Say Ho Won't flang. At the time the a‘torneys for the con- demned man entered no protest to the new sentence, absolutely refusing to say what effect zhe action of the court would have upon their future course. Judge Scott, however, said that his action would 1 no wise affect the case, as it was simp Judicial error and oue that could be Tected the same as correcting an error in a civil judgment. Since that time, however, some of the most eminent criminal lawyers of the city have given the matier - 2 deal of attention and yesterday a number of them freely oxpressed tne opinion that Barnoy McGinn would never hang for havieg murdered Edward McKenna. In discussing tne question oneof them saig: “When Judge Scott pronounced the first sentence and sent the man to sohtary confinement, that moment the punishment Imposed by the court was commenced. When the man was again_brought into court and the date of exccution changed, by that act the court nullified the first seutence all jurisdiction over the ¢ Nothing now remains to be done but to let Mc( 1 jail until April6 and then bring habeas corpus proccedings for his release.” Cuse in Point Clted. To support this position one of the gentle: men cited n case from Otoe county, which was recently passed upon by the supreme court of this state. In that county a young man by the name of Holmes was arrested on the charge of burglary and on the trial he was convicted. When' the sentence was im- posed the young fellow was sent to the re- form school at Kearney, but before he was taken nway the judge learned that he bad passed the reform school age. and, again bringing him into court, he sentenced him to a term of ten n the penitentiary at Lincoln, where he was at once taken by the sherift of the couuty. The attorney for the prisoner went to the supremo court on an application for a writ of habeas corpus, which was granted, and Holmes was released from custody. the court holding that on account of an error committed by the judge of a court a prisoner could not be twice sentenced for the crime, even if the imposing of thes first sentence was a mistake. Going still deeper 1nto the details the court held that while the first sontence was void the imposing of the sec- ond nullitied both, In McGinn's case, they cite the Otoe county decision as_being in point, and say that when the matter 1s called to the atten- tion of the supreme court, that body wiil set aside tho second sentence and that the first sentence will stand for naught, as the pecossury 100 days allowed by law were not given. 'Ihey maintain that anothor trial of the cause cannot be had, as tho laws of the sato are imperative that a man cannot twice have his life puv in jeopardy for the sommission of one crim Trinl of Contompt Cases, Tho trial of the contempt cases against David ..

Karbach, D. J. O'Donohoe and Deunis Cunningham’ were on the witness stand for the state. They each testified that Cooley came to them with afidavits, re- ing them to appraise the Harney street property, stating that he had an'eastern customer who would make a loan on some of the lots. Nothing was said by Cooloy to any of the parties to the effect that the af- Adavits were to be used in the Hoagland-Van Etten lawsuit In testifying for tho defense Van Ltten stated that he delivered the blank afiidavits to Cooley for the purpose of securing the signatures of the affants, During the afternoon, when Cooley was laced upon the stand in Kis own behalf, he stified that the blank afidavits were left In his oftico by some unknown man, he leay- Ing sufticient money to pay for the trouble ana expense which the nota might incu All that he knew about the matter w that the afidavits weroto Ve used as the basis for securing aloan.

Ivresponsible Party Who Sends Out Re- ports Damaging to the State, Reports have been sent out from Omaha to several eastern newspapers to the effect that the .farmers in several counties in the western and northwestern parts of the stato were in dostitute condition and had appealea to Omaha for help. This report has been circulated through the east and bas done the state no end of damage. The article was published in a Wisconsin paper and one of the direct effects of it was a letter from Martin M. Nelson of Racine to the immigration and land department of the Fremont, Elikhorn & Missouri Valley, stat- ing that a party of seven farmers who had arranged to move to Keya Paha county had been disbanded on account of the report. General Buchanan of the Elkhorn de- nounced the report as aosolutely unfounded, “1 am,” he said, “very well acquainted with the part of the state referred to and I can say positively that there are no cases of destitution among the farmers 1 the counties mentioned. Such reports do the state incalculable harm. I am informed that tho article referred to appeared in tho Chicago Record and was credited to Tae Beg.” The facts in regard to the publication only furnish another instanceof the contemptible work of an irresponsible nowspaper falir who has been flooding the country with damaging reports about Omaha for several months. He represents soveral eastern papers and fills them with the most unre- liable repovts from Omaha. It was this fakir that discovered soveral hundred bodies lylng on top of the ground ina cemetery some months ago and had the entire town destroyed by fire when the Farnam Street theater burned. On December 14 Tne Bee contained a card from Mrs. 8. C. Shank, wife of the editor of the Christian’ Advocate, stating Uhat any clothing that might be donated would be sent by her to ncedy people in the western part of the state. This was the only basis which Tur Bee furnished for the lying and damaging urticle which was sont from this city by the fakir who has no connection with any Omaha paver and can get none, Ll vorite Remeay for Lu Grippe, n the epidemic of Ia_grivpe Cham- Cough Remedy took the lead hero nuch better likked than other cough medicing H.

He made a confession just before going on the scaffold aomittiug his guilt. but said he never would have committed the deed if he had not been drunk. The crime for which he was hanged was committed on the night of October 15, 181 at Samuel depot, six miles south of Bards town. Evans (colored) and Hall (white) were drunk wgether. Hall being unable to take care of himself Evans agreed to take him home. Instead of doing so he put Hall in a straw pile, where he fell asleep. then went to Hull's house and demanded ad- mittance. Mrs. Hall refused. He tried to break in, when her 12-yoar-old daughter ran out. us caught I gged her to an onthouse and brutally assaulted and killed her. Mrs. Hall, ignorant of her daughter's treatment, ran a mile to a_neighbor's house and called for help, when pursuit was organ- ized and Evans was captured.

St. Louts, Jan. 5.—A Post-Dispatch special from Tuscaloosa, Ala., says: Will Farmer was hanged here this noon for the murder of his wife, Sarah, last August. by cutting her throat from earto ear. Iarmer was very jealous of attentions shown his wife by other men and numerous quarrels re- sulted, One day last August he threatenod to kil her. She dared him to do it. and he responded instantly by cutting her throat.

ANNOUNCEMENT S, Mr. Berrie Jarrett, representative cf Stu- art Robson, is in the city. His attrac comes to the Boyd on Thursdsy and Friday next. This season Mr. Robson is playing nothing but the ““Comedy of Errors,” having made u splendid revival of that greatest of n comedies. Mr. Robson and Mr. Giles Shine zppear as the twin Dromios. Today Charles H. Yale's great spectacular atuaction, the “Newest Devil's Auction,” will give two performances at the Boyd—a matinee at 2:30 this afternoon, to which the prices of admission have been placed so low that none can afford to miss_it, and the regular evening performance at 8 this even- ing. The entertainment is eminently suited to the litule folks, one feature in particular being calculated to amuse them greotly, namely, Little Miss Columbia, the wonder- ful 7-year-old_child dancer.' The engage- ment of the “Newest Devil's Auction” closes tomorrow (Sunday) evening. Dolly Nobles, whose popularity 1s no less than than that of her gifted husband, found a separate engagement irksome and uncongenial. Sne has resigned from Charles Dickson’s support and rejoined her husband company. She is playing the Flower Girl in the “Phaenix” in her own sweet, winning way and_adding greatly to the attractive- ness of the performance.. They come to the Boyd on Monday and 'Tuesday next in tho “Phanix.” The Nobles are among the lim- ited number of stars who are not_complain- ing of bad business. Their southern tour has been un ovation. The sale of seats for the “Phanix” will open this evening at 9 o'clock.

Hunt has re- turned from Washington, where he went to see Secretary Morton in reference to seeur- ing permission to purchase adequate furni- ture for the Omaha headquarters. A previous request had been denied by the secretary on the principle of economy and since the removal of thoe Omaha bureau to the McCague building the local department has been compelled to get along with a few old chairs and tables as office furniture. Mr. Hunt had an extended interview with Mr Morton, who was disposed to be more liberal when he was advised of the difi- culties under which the Omaha bureau was laboring.
