8 CAUGHT BY A SEARCH LIGHT Tudge Wing's Unmeroifal Questioning of a Witness for the Defense. SENSATION IN THE COUGHLIN TRIAL Engineer Bardeen Says He Saw the Ex- Detective on the Night of the Oronin Marder Driving to the Lake with & Box. Cmicaco, Jau. 8-—The corridors of the court house were packed today with an eager throng, anxious to gain admittance to the Coughlin trial. The announcement that the new state witness, Frank Bardeen, would be examined had caused a rovival of inter- est in the case, and as Judge Tuthill took his seat and Breeden's name was called, a murmur of suppressed excitement ran through the court room As Engineer Bardeen took the stand the Jurymen leaned forward in their chairs, the Judge bent toward the witness and ever ear in the court room was strained. The witaess replizd to the attorney's questions in a distinct voice and secmed undisturbed by the interest he was creating. States At- torney Bottom asked : “Where were you on tha night of May 4, 18802 o1 wate was at Evanston and Edge- you see Daniel Coughlin that night?” “1did.” Every face in the densely packed room gave evidence of oxcitement. The prisoner sat quietly, looking steadily into the eyes of the witness, but his face was deadly pale and n hard, sirained expression crept over it us the story continued. “Where did you see him?" quietly asked Mr. Bottum In Ldgewater.” Turned on the Light. “Now, Mr. Bardeen, tell all you can about that night.” I was supervising engineer of the Edge- water syndicate and was attempting to get the enzine ar_South Kvanston in order on the night of May 4, and_after finishing my work went to the [Zdgewater station to sce fricnd of mine who was in charge there. Arriving about 10 o'clock, I found him ab- sent. Llisassistant was busy, so I went to the outside steps and waited. “Isaton the steps for some time. It was between 1and 2 o'clock. Hearing the sound of a wagon approuching from the west, I stood up and saw a long wagon drawn by & durk horse just about to cross the tracks. Three men were in 1t, but two jumped to tho ground and walked as the rig came across the tracks. Just as the wagon was leaving the last rails, tho horse was in front of me. Over the door was a strong thirty-two-can- dle power incandescent light in a locomotive hendlight, and there was a_switch beside the door. 1 turncd it on. The lamp threw a strong fight across the road. There T saw plainly the long wagon, the horse and three wmen.” ““Did you see anything in the wagon?” ““Yes, sir; there was a box or chest in_the wagon. 1t looked to me like a tool ches On it onc of the men was sitting.” 0w, where were the men who walked by the wagon?” “One of them walked on the ndrth side— next to me—and the other walked behind.” He Recognized Coughlin, “Did you know either of these men?” “Which one?” Phe man walking behind the wagon about six feet.” “Who was lie®" finally asked Mr. Bottum, “Daniel Coughlin," replied Baraeen calmly and clearly. Again & murmur of excitement rah through the crowd, but subsided us Mr. Bot- tum proceeded. “What did Daniel Coughlin do?" “He sprang from the opposite side of the wagon, and when it partially hid him. he walked rapidly to the south until his form was lost 1n thie shadow of the trees on the othier side of the road. The other man, who was walking, followed Coughlin into the shadow, and they, with the wagon, went on toward the lke until I lost sight of them.” Kattied the Witrel Jpon cross-examination Judge Wing suc- ceeded in confusing the witness badly. Bar- deen had stated that he did not know whera his friénd, upon whom he had called at the electric light plant, was. +Don’t you know that he was up stairs in bed?” asked the attorney sternly. Bardeen colored, stammered and replied confusedly, “' believe he was.” “Why did yousay you did not know then?" T don't know where he wus,” the witness repeated stubbornly. Bardeen's statement, that the moon wae shining at 2 o’clock on the morning in ques- tion was apparently proved to beat fault, a calendar showing that the moon set about 0. The witness admitted that he might be mistaken, but insisted that he sull thought re saw the moon at 2 o'clock.

About a year ago I took a violent attack of la grippe. 1 coughed day and night for about six weeks; my wife then suggested that I try Chamberlain’'s Cough Remedy. At first I could see no difference, but still” kept taking it, and soon found that it was what I needed. If I got no relief from one dose I took another, and it was only a few days until I was free from the cough. I think people in general ought to know the value of this remedy, ana I take pleasure in acknowl- edging the benefit I have received from it.

OxATA, Jan, 8.—To the Editor of Tae Bee: The last issue of the Review of Reviews con- tains a-very interesting.article upon the sub- ject' which is confronting every large city in the country, viz: “Help for the Poor.” ‘The experience of other citics, tho rules adopted, and good, common sense all point in one direction—the labor test—uuless a man is sick or absolutely destitute. Brother Clark’s experience at Rescue hall clearly demonstrates that every healthy man should do something to earn the bread ho eats, He-wants work which will separate honest, industrious men from professional tramps and those who will not worls T am told by a prominént city offigial, who knows what he is talking about, that the city council can provide worlk for 1,000 men until spring, if 1t will grapple with the sub- ject 10 a busimesslike way. The watk which can be provided is filling nuisance lots. It can be prosecuted during the winter’ months just as weil as to wait until next mmer. What member of the coun- cil will arise to the occasion and meet the emergency? 'This is anap pgal not for charity. but to give honest men n opportunity to support themselves and tide them over the winter months. This is no time for technicalities. The oppo: tunity, which will thus furnish _bread through the winter to 1,000 men will also compel the professional tramp and impostor to go to work, or to move on to some other city. If this can be done, and 1 am assured it can be,no time should be lost. The ice business will give steady employment to_ 500 or 600 mén for nearly seven weeks. These tw nues of labor opened up simultane- ously will amply care for Omaha's unem- ployed, and ia connection with the exceflent work of all our charities, nov forgetting those self-sacriticing, noble \women, who ure just providing quarters for destitute women and children, the worthy poor of Omaha will have good cause Lo thank God for the efforts of such generous people.

The delegates to the Tnternational Brick- layers and Masons annual meeting ure now all in the city, and led by the Omaha Mu- sieal Unfon band they marched yesterdny through several of the principal strests and wound up at the large hall in Patterson's vlock, whero speechmaking, welcoming and congratulations were had. The large banner of tho international union, which headed the procession, was carried by Mr. Samuel Walker of the local union. About 160 good substantial workers fol- lowed the head of the banner. Upon arriving at the hall Mr. John Withnell, president of the local Bricklayers and Masons union, was chosen temporary chairman, and he at on called upon Mayor Bemis to make the wel- coming address. The Mayor's Address. The mayor was loudly cheered when he stepped upon the platform and i his own kind way bade all the visitors a hicarty welcome. He dwelt at some length upon the causes of the industrial de- pression and di1 not hesitate to advise the working people to look after the passage of such laws as would most likely bring about the required relief, He was heartily cheered when he announced his belief that the con- tract system should be done away with and the day labor theory adopted on all public works. The mayor finished by again welcoming the visitors and_ywishing the in- ternational union u profitable and pleasant meeting. The Governor's Welcome. Governor Crounse was then introduced and, on behalt of thestate of Nebraska, bade the delegates welcome. The governor re- cited she growth of Nebraska, showing that by personul effort and personal enterprise this state had 1n a few years grown from a desert to a grand star of the union, teeming with wealth ana population. The various industries were pictured in_eloquent lan- guage, showing that Nebruska's products were now sold {n all parts of the civilized world. He deplored the fact that this was an era of ngitators and advised organized labor to be conservative and not atlack its best friends. He dia not think that because a man owned o lfrge amount of property, which he had honestly earned by personil enterprise, and happened to wear a clean shirt, he was necessarily an enemy of organized labor. He said he had always been a friend of organized labor and was lad to meet with such an intelligent looking ody of men as those who represent tne bricklayers ana masons of America, This seemed to strike a popnlar cord and when the governor took his seat he was heartily applauded. President Heartz Respond President Joun (feartz of the inter- national union was then called upon to reply in behalf of the union. Mr. Heartz expressed himself as being welb pleased with the preparations that had béen made oy the local union and thanked the rovernor and mayor for their hearty welcome. *‘This is only the second time,” he said, ‘‘that our anuual meeting has been honored with the presence of ladies and the governor of the state.” He was glad to sce the large number of ladies present and thought that the presence of so many of the gentler sex lent tone to the deliberations. The number of delegates in attendance was not as large as he had expected a short time ago, but in view of the hard times he thought the local unions had done remark- ably well to send as many delegates as were preseut. The meeting adjourned at 11 o’'clocik to meet again in the same hall at2p.m., at which time the union began 1ts regular busi- ness. Anopen meeting will be held before the mecting finally adjourns, at which speeches will be made by scveral of tho visiting delegates. To this meeting the public will be invited, and it is said several £00d orators on laor topics are among the number. The date of the open meeting will be announced later. OH10'3 IDLE MINERS, Mueh Interest Centerluyg in the State Con- vention at Columbus. CINCINNATI, Jan, 8.=The state convention of miners at Columbus this week is awaited all over the state with great anxiety. About 20,000 idle or partially employed miners in the state are now in distress. A differentinl of 9 cents between the Pennsylvania and Ohio districts prevails by agreement,» the agreement being 70 cents per ton in this state and 79 in Peun’ sylvania. The rate at Pittsburg for montns has been from 52 to 65. In the Hocking vatloy and Ohio districts the 70-cent rate has been mamtained, but the operators could not meet Pittsburg prices ith a margin of 5 to 17 ceuts against them and their men Liave been idle. The dead work costs more in the Olio districts. “The operators will ask the convention to reduce the rate from 70 to 56 cents. Presi- dent Nugent says many of the_delegates are instructed ana it may be dificult to weet tho rates p ngin Pittsburg districts with tho usual differential. Everything was prostrated ten years ago by a general strikein the Hocking valley and general distress prevailed twenty years ago under similar conditious. It is feared thit another decennial of miseay is likely to come after the convention. MANIFULATED BY DREAMERS, Reason the Kansas City Printers Give for Leaving the Indus:rial Council. KaNsas CIty, Jan. 8.—International Typo- graphical union No. 80, which includes three local unions with 330 members, has with- drawn from the Industrial council. Somo labor leaders say that this move on the part of the printers 1s the opening wedge which will disintegrate the council.

PRy SRy HOLDING THE SACK. Nebraska Seed Growers Caught By the Phil Stimmel Faltare. Last Saturday when Phil Stimmel, the head of the wholesale seed house operated by Phil Stimmel & Co., went before Judge Blair of the aistrict court and confessed judgment ir. favor of the Omaha National bank for $28000 and C.S. Montgomery for $6,000 1t was thought that the troubles of the company were at an end. As soon as the judgments executions were issued and the went into the hands of Sheriff placed a custodian in charge. All day Sunday matters wore quiet in the vicinity of the seed house, but yesterday they became lively in the extreme. The farmers in the west end of the county had learned through Tue Beg of the failure, and they were early on hand to see if they were left holding the sack. For some years the seed firm of Stimmel & Co. has contracted with the farmers aloag the Platte and Elkhorn rivers for all of the seeds grown in that section of the country. buying them aud paying the.highest market price. As a result, the farmers have been growing thousands of acres of seeds, whicn they have sold to Stimmel in this market. Last Noverber the annual delivery com menced and sinco that time seeds aggre- gating 836,000 in values have been shipped to Stimmel & Co., who have taken the same and issued warehouse receipts, payable in ixty days. One of the principal seed- growers, Nels Brown, holds warehouse re- ceipts for £10.000, while other men who ar caught are Charles Bourke, Jeff Arnold, F. Burgiss, John Marion, J. McMahon, Art Blake, George Emmerson, George Hughes, Charles Norton, J. Rhodes, M. Dodson and L( Denton, all residing in the vicinity of Valley, Elkhorn, Elk City and Waterloo. When these parties came to the city day they discovered that they held the ware- housc receipts, but that the sceds and the evidence of their summer's toil were held by the bank. Trouble will at once ensue, as the seed growers have consulted attorneys and will replevin all of the goods covered by the re- ceipts. were entered whole plant Drexel, who SACKETT'S ANSWET Claims that if Fraud Was Practiced It Wi in Tency's Behall, Carrying out the order of the county court Fred J. Sacicett has filed his answer iny the contest which has been instituted by C. A. Tracy, who maintains that he was elected to the office of county clerk at the ciection held last November. In this answer Mr. Sackett demes that portion of Traey's petition wherein he claims that there were 500 votes cast for him which were never counted, and alleges that he himsélf was the man who was cheated out of votes. In support of this al- legation Mr. Sackett: says that in the Fifth ward in some of the precincts there were votes counted for ‘Tracy which were cast for himself. 1Hc also alleges that in - tte Sixth d some of the voters ' who were unabie to. vead. called upon the democratic judges of election for assistance in preparing their tickets, and that instead of these judges doing their duty, they fixed the tickets to suit them- selves. Asido from this the answer states that in the Tenth district of the Second ward. one Burkehard, n judge of election, prepared some twenty or thirty _bal- lots for voters, marking them for the con- testant, when in fact the men intended to vote for the incumbent. Mr. Sackett charges that in Chicago precinct there were twenty- three votes manipulated and cast for the contestant which weré not intended for him. By reason of these and sundry other e the incumbent alleges that 'if a recount of the votes can be had he will show a gain of 122 more than was shown by-the ofic:al count. To Keep Them at Home.
