. AR R b TRIED FOR CRIMINAL LIBEL Ex-Bheriff Bennett's Case Against the Editor of The Bee Heard, SHOWING OF FACTS MADE FOR THE STATE Even e Enough t Been Attorneys Tnslst that Not Conviction Hlas 1 by the Testimony that Was Introduced. Nuggest tablish cases brought agalnst Edward Rose- water, editor of The Bee, by ex-Sheriff Bennett and his wife, charging criminal libel, were called in police court yesterday afternoon The information 1s based cites the open lo of Douglas county, headed of Warning,” which Rosewater and appeared in vember 6. In substance It t of George A. Bennett sumed the duties of his office the upon which hed attentlon to the neither a_comp officer; his office bititute; his executive of prisoners had fallen into the hands of negligent and law-defying depu ties; fail deliveries were frequent; instances of Jailer DBennett’s finadvertence were quoted. The of Henderson the em- bezzler, who was taken to a gambling louse at night by the jailor and allowed to gratify his desire to play faro, without being closely watched, was enumerated in the list of accusations. The Mosher scandal was also referred to. 1t stated that the “county jail had not only been turned into an assign but a 1in which custodians of pris- one; the part of procurers The case of the 13-year-old white girl and the al- Jeged abortion was cited. Other Instances which completed the series of loose methods in vogue under the Bennett administration wore given at length, The writer defended himself against the vituperative attacks of Bennett's officlal organ and replied to the accusations made by Bank Wrecker Mosher. Other libelous storles, which doubtless em anated from Bennett and his friends, aimed at Mr. Rosewater, were exposed as viclous falsehoods. The contemptuous indifference with which Bennett, as sheriff, treated cases of viola- tions of prison usage which were brought to his attention from time to, time also came in for a good scoring. Assistant County Attorney Day appeared for the prosecution and was assisted by G. W. Covell and A. 8. Churchill, who had been retained by Bennett to help push the cases. Judge Lee Estelle and E. W. Simeral ap- peared for the defendant. The defense announced its readiness to proceed in the case in which Bennett was the complaining witness, but the state had made up its mind to try the other first. The defense was not ready in that case, but it was finally agreed to try both cases at the same time, and the defense was to be given such time as was needed to secure necessary evidence. TAKING OF TESTIMON George A. Bennett was the first witness called. He teatified that he was sheriff of Douglas county on the 6th of last November and lived in the county jail, where his wifo held the position of matron. He was at that time a candidate for re-election. He was a subscriber to The Evening Bee, published at seventeenth and Farnam strees in this city, but ceased to be a subscriber on the date mentioned. He identified a copy of The Eyening Bee of that date and was excused without_ cross-examination. Mrs. Bennett was next called, She testi- fied that as matron of the county jail she had charge of the female prisoners, did the mending and had general charge of things. She was the only matron and under the jailors had full charge of the women. She Was not cross-examined. N. P, Feil testified that for the past three years he had held the position of business manager of The Bee. The circulation of The Evening Bee was under his superyision; on the date mentioned it was about 10,000, nearly all of which was in Omaha and South Omala, with perhaps 600 or 700 copies sent to points in western Iowa or in Nebraska outside of Douglas county. He identified a copy of The Evening Bee of November 6, and testified that the paper was printed by The Bee Publishing company, of which the defendant was_president, and that the de- fendant was also editor of the paper. He was not cross-examined. George B. Tzschuck testified that he was secretary and treasurer of The Bee Publish- ing company. He had nothing particular to do with the circulation, but knew that the circulation of The Evening Bee during the early part of last November was about 10,000, of which several hundred coples went outside of Douglas county. He told where the paper was published and identified a copy of November 6. No questions were asked on cross-examination and the state offered the paper in evidence, calling atten- tion to the alleged libelous article. The defenso objected to Its admission and the court agreed to hear arguments on that point at a later time. Mr. Tzschuck was recalled to testify as to the defendant’s connection with the paper. He knew that Mr. Rosewater was editor of The Bee on the 6th of last November, but did not know whether the defendant was in the city at that time or not. He testified that J. B. Haynes was managing editor of the paper and had charge of it in the absence of Mr. Rosewater. When asked what the relation was between them, le re- plied that Mr. Haynes had charge of the editorial department and that Mr. Rose- water wrote articles occasionally. Aslde from_contributing articles he could not say whether the defendant had anything to do with the editorial management or not. The witness said he had previously seen articles signed, as was the one alleged to be libel- ous, but he did not know who wrote them, nelther did he know why the signature was placed there. W. A. Messick, official stenographer of t Board of Fire and Police Commissioners, was called, and testified as to evidence given by the defendant before the board December 28, in the matter of a protest against the granting of a liquor license. Heo sald the defendant had testified that he w the editor of The Bee, and had been since the starting of the paper in 1871; and that he was president of The BHee Publishing company. The witness could not remember that Mr. Rosewater had stated how long he had been president of The Bee Publishing company, and Mr. Tzschuck was again re- called to say that it was since the organiza- tion of the company in 1878, The prosecution announced that it was Willing to rest its case on the showing made, ALLEGE NO CASE MAI Judge Estelle said that if the pro was willing t8 stand by what it had said the case must be dismissed. This course must follow, not because it had been proved that Mr. Rosewater wrote the alleged libelous ar- ticle; not because it had been proved that he caused Its publication, but because it had not been proved that the article was false and malicious, which was absolutely necessary under the law. Attention was called to the old law regarding libel, and the amendment of the law as passed by the legislature in 1887, which s the law as It stands today, It was cited that under the old law the libel must be false “or’ malicious, but now it must be false “and” maliclous. The defens; had not proved that this article was oith 1t was not a contention as to whethor the article was libelous or not, but whether c not it was false. Thix was for the prosecu tion to show. There must be [alsity and malice to make out a case of libel under the statute. There was not the slightest pre sumption of falsity—there could be no such presumption—for every presumption must be of innocence. Mr. Day insisted that when an article showed Itself libelous on its face per se, the burden of proof rested om the defendant Mr. Simeral sald that when an article was libelous pér se the law presumed dam wge, and it was for the jury to fix the amount of the damage, but In a criminal prosecution there could be po presumption The which the suit r to the citizens Word Mr. No. a “Last signed by The Bee of reviewed the from the time was condy he i up t date the article was pub It called Bennett clent law Mr. effl done fact ent that nor was work as was work by a s custodian case veritable bré acted ecution It would not do to establish any endant had been of guilt such precedent as to presume this guilty merely bocause this sult brought. The witnesses for the prosecu tion had it In thelr mouths, minds and hearts to swear to the falsity of the asser- tions made in the article in question If they had 5o desired, but instead of doing that the merely swore to their having been candi- dates or to the positions they held. Had they done this they would have put the defendant on the defense, but up to this time they had certainly not done Estello again insisted that no case had been made out, and called attention to the change in the law that makes criminal libel now a felony instead of a minor crime. The state had recognized that law in seeking to make out the paper to be one of wide circula tion, and now wanted the court to presum the two essential elements necessary to make out the erime char It might be possible for a jury to presume malice from the acts of the defendant or from facts before them, but the law did not presume malico, and no one could pre sume the sity of the article The state would probably admit that some of tho matters set forth In the article were true, but they denied none of them, and it would be impossible for the defense to know what it was expected to meet. Mr. Day sald that the re two justifl tions for an article—Its truth and a goo motive in its publication—and it was for the defendant to so justify the publication of this artic The court advised that inasmuch as each side was positive that it was right it would be well for each to submit authorities on the positions taken, and fixed the time at 2 o'clock tomorrow afternoon. Bennett as o Slugger, Yesterday George A. inett, the sheriff of this county, met a man in the cor- of the New York Life bullding, pounced onto him and struck him three times, inflicting some painful bruises.

Henry Callow ix-Slave, Seeks to Se- re a Share of His Father's Estate, Henry Calloway is a colored teamster in Omaha, but he may toss the ribbons aside in the near future and hold big rolls of greenbacks instead of leather in his hands. He has instituted suit in Kansas City to break the will of his alleged father, the late Rev. James Sweemey. The latter recently left an estate of $50,000. His will was filed in the probate court at Kausas City in Aug- ust, and immediately thereafter Calloway began suit to have the will set astde, claim- ing that the will' was not the last will of James Sweeney, as At the’time it was ex- ccuted Sweency had not sufficient mental capacity to make and publish a will, and that even if executed by Sweeney, the will was obtained: by undue and improper in- fluence. Hev. James Sweeney was always religious, and, it is said, alvays made a better hand at the prayer meeting than in the cornfield. In 1845 he was owned by & man named Arthur, who lived in Boone county. A young colored girl owned by Arthur fell in love “with the young preacher, and they were married. ~ Henry Calloway, it is claimed, was the only fruit of this union. In 1820, when Calloway was only 3 years old, “the preacher,” was sold to another planter, and the slave's family was sep- arated.” Sweeney was taken to some of the northern countics and finally became the “property” of John W. Collins of Clay county, "Among the other “chattels” belong- ing to Mr. Collins was Johanna, the present defendant of the wiil, then a stout and ro- bust negro malden. In Johanna's presence “the parson’ forgot all about his former and boy, and finally marr her, After obtaining their {reedom they moved to Kansas City and in'a few vears saved some money and put it in property. M while the city grew, the boom came, and before the Sweeneys knew it they were rich. The advance in the price of real es- tate had done it. Rev. James Sweeney heard nothing from his son by the former marriage until in 1857, when he visited him, after a separation of thirty-six years. Aunt Johanna regarded Henry with suspicion, but the old man owned him as his son. Henry's stay was not prolonged, as his stepmother, it s said, made it rather unpleasant for him. Henry called on his father once or twice afterward, Shortly before the old man died he exe- cuted a new will. Under its provisions all Lis property was left to ‘Aunt Johanna, Henry Calloway was mentioned in the will as “a_son by a former marriage” and then cut off with $5. It is this will which Cal- loway now secks to break, claiming that his “stepmother ted undue influence over his father. Oregonfan sev- al years as- “EIL Live s L 1 Can," Is the burden of an old song.
