8 LICENSE BOARD OVERRULED Action in a Certain Oase Quickly Reversed by the District Court. JUDGE SCOTT DECIDES A SALOON CASE Owners Win In Thelr Protest Against a Saloon at Fifteenth and Far- Verdict Against n Policeman— Minor Court Matters. Property nam The hearing of the arguments in the ap- peal from the decision of the members of the fire and police commission in t Kalser liquor consumed the greater portion of the time in the criminal ,court yesterday. Both sides were represented by attorneys who talked for hours in the in- terests of their respective clients In the early part of the year applied for a license authorizing operate a saloon in the basemer Barker block, at the corner of Fifteenth and Farnam streets. At that time the business men in the vicinity of the loc filed their protests, urging that a saloon located there would injure thelr trade. After a full and exhaustive hearing of the case, the license was granted, but the sa- loon' never opened for business, simply for the reason that the parties who protested before the commission appealed to the dis trict court and at the same time secured a temporary order, restraining Kalser from engaging in the liquor traffic until the is- sues could be dotermined. There the m ter rested until yesterduy, when the ca was called for trial. Frank Ransom, who appeared for the protestants, said that there was nothing pe sonal against the applicant; that the prine pal objection was to the location of a saloon particular corner and that it would trade of the surrounding business houses. Turning his attent'on t) the fire and police commission, he declared that there the prote 1 10 show, as members of the board had defined their position with refor- ence (o saloon men. The speaker claimed that Commissioner Strickler was the open attorney of F. M. Martin, who was engaged in the business of renting houses for prosti tution and was also a partner of the Bar- kers, who were the owners of the block in which it was proposed to locate the saloon. A saloon at the corner of Fifteenth and Far- nam streets, he urged, would be an eye-sore and a public nuisance. In passing upon the case, Judge Scott re- versed the decision of the fire and police commissioners and held that the appeal of the protestants was well taken, and that the board was perpetually restrained from granting a saloon license for the corner of Fifteenth and Farnam streets, at least so long as the surrounding property owners ob- jected to the saloon In that particular loca- tion. Kaiser him to of the 1 Breach of Contract. Edward W. Waterman has sued Dennis A. Harrington for the sum of $111, alleging the breach of contract in the crection of a dwel- ling. The plaintiff alleges that he has suffered damages for the simple reason that his house was not erccted exactly like that of 0'Donnell's. He avers that by the terms of the contract his house was to be a counter- part of the O'Donnell house, but that in- stead of being like it, it has a flue that is only half as large. This flue, the plaintift declares, is only of the size of a man’s hand, and instead of carrying away the smoke from the stove, drives it down into the rooms, to the great disgust and annoyance of all the members of the plaintifi’s family. Verdic iceman, In the ca rles M. Bachmann against Policeman Brady and his bondsmen, where suit was 'brought to recover alleged damages of $1,000 by reason of an arrest, the officer thinking that the plaintiff looked like a man who had stolen a watch from a Tenth street auction shop, the jury in Judge Blair's court vesterday returned a verdict assessing $50 as the amount of damage which Bachmagn had sustained Wants a Divore Eva L. M. Dorsey has instituted divorce proceedings looking to a separation from her husband, Frank Dorsey, to whom she al- leges she was married some ten years ago. In asking for her decree, sho alieges that Frank has been unusually cruel and obnox- fous in his habits and conduct. She asks for the custody of the children. Alleg: Burglars Found Guilty, After being out all night the jury in the case of the state against J. C. Jackson and Charles Austin yesterday returned a ver- dict finding the defendants guilty. They were charged with having burglarized a resi- dence, stealing a gold wateh and a lot of clothing. e SOMETHING OF A STORM. Meavy Fall of Snow All Over the West— Cold Wave Booked. Omaha was mantled with ten tnches of snow yesterday. In some places the beautiful had drifted to depths of several feet, which impeded trafic and defied the snow plows of the street railway lines. All the electric lines of the system were af- fected, and as a result many people walked down town. The middle of the car tracks was In popular demand. About noon the motors resumed service, The cable ling was not delayed. Mayor Bemls telephoned down to Rescue hall and called for volunteers to form a shovel brigade to clear the sidewalks. Superintendent Clark at once applied the labor test to his guests and 250 men promptly responded. The ten men who re- fused were fmmediately fired out of the institution. The balance did good work in clearing the sidewalks, for which they re ceived no compensation except food and shelter at the hall. Most of the trains were on time at union depot and railroad trafic was affected. The snow general o Nebraska cific reports that it snowed tire line to Cheyenne. The B. & M. so far as could be heard on account of defective wires was pretty gencrally visited by the fleccy. The Elkhorn was in the snow belt, while tho Missouri Pacific hit snow and rain on the central division. Trains were not groatly delayed, although the damage done to telegraph lines was considerable. From all sections of the western country come reports of colder w v The storm was 1 in the Mississippl valley, and at 8 o'clock yesterday the center was not far from Keokuk, la. The snow resulted from the low area of barom- eter that was stationary in the Mississippi valley Thursday, and at no time was the temperature far above the freezing point The snow fall was heavy in Nebraska along the Missouri valley, but the western part of the state was not so heavily visited. The storm was of a dangerous character, and in somo months of the year it would have been likely to develop into a tornado, < A New Way of Curing u Cold A Des Moines woman who has been troub led with frequent colds, concluded to try an old remedy In a new way, and accordingly took a tablespoonful (four times the usual dose) of Chamberlain's Cough remedy just before going to bed. The next morning she found that her cold had aiinsst exnl appeared. During the day she took a few doses of the remedy (one teaspoonful at o time) and at night again took & tablespoon ful before going to bed, and on the follow ing morning awoke free from all symptoms of the cold. Since then she has, on several occaslons, used this remedy in like manner with the same good results, and Is much elated over her discovery of 8o quick a way of curing a cold.

The arguments. in the Bennett-Rosewater libel were submitted police court yestorday afternoon, the in contro- versy being whether or not It was obliga- tory on the prosecution to prove that the libelous article was malicious fn order to make out a case. The prosecution contended that the burden of proof was on the defendant, as the falsity of the article was to be presumed, while the defense con- tended that every presumption must be in favor of the defendant, and that in the absense of proof to the contrary falsity and malice could not be presumed. Mr. argued that the had thug far failed to make out a prima facie case, and cited in support of his position cases from Indiana, North Carolina and Ala- bama, as well as the Nebraska statute cov- ering the crime of criminal libe The assistant county attorney sachusetts authorities, and read from a book by Sam Merrill of the Boston Globe, written for the press on *Newspaper Libel.” He confined his argument to trying to show that a defamatory article must be presumed to be false until othgrwise shown, but was unable to offer any authorities on that point, his citations belng aldhg the line of placing ie burden of proof and not as to presump- tion of g Judge Istelle contended that there could be no authority found anywhere that would shift the burden of proof from the prosecu- tion in a criminal case. He sald Judge Post of the Nebraska supreme court had Just passed on a case involving that very point, and had held that the burden of proof never shifted from the state, The law pre- sumed the innocence of every man and woman, yet in the North Car case it held that this could not be carried to such an extent as to make the presumption of a woman's clastity presume the falsity of a defendant’s charge to the contrary. So It_was in this case—the presumption that Mr. Beunett would not do anything wrong must not allow a presumption that “the article in question was false. It was not Mr. Bennett who was on trial in this case, and it was the defendant who was en- titled to the presumption of innocence. The prosecution was trying to have something pass as a presumption of law that was for the jury to find and establish as a matter of fact. The assistant county attorney was disposed to question some of the motives and utter- ances of Judge Bstelle, and the latter was constrained to remark about it. He said he had never before noticed such a disposition on the part of Mr. Day, and he could not but attribute it to infiuences behind him. This was an obvious rebuke to Attorney Covell, who was figuring covertly in the prosecution, without openly showing his han The court inquired of Mr. Day if he had any authorities to offer, showing that the falsity of a libel was to be presumed, and the latter replied that he had nothing ad- ditional to offer, but would prepare a b in the case if it was desired. The court intimated that what he had heard had not given him as much light as he desired, and announced that he would take the case under advisement. e e Invaluable for Coughs and Colds. 0. W. 0.

THE TRAI\ UPSET 0N A BRIDCGE Cold-Blooded Methods Adopted by Would- Be Texas Robbers, DASTARDLY WORK OF A WRECKING GANG They Remove the Ralls and Fishplates and Fire frow Tagmnn ignal a Coming Freight HOUSTON, Tex., Feb, 9.—Train wreckers last night removed the rails and fishplates at the high bridge over White Oak bay on the Missourl, Kansas & Texas railroad, When the passenger train came along the engine passed safely over, but the baggage and mail coaches jumped the track and rolled down the bank, followed by the smoker, which landed on top of them. The wreck presented a frightful appearance. Joe Elliott, a brakeman, was sent back to flag a freight train which was soon due. He had not proceeded 100 yards when a vol- ley from ambush was fired upon him. Four bullets took effect in his body. The crew in the meantime, aided by passengers,” were at work extricating the men buried in the wrecked cars and feared to go to the flag- man’s rescue He, however, crawled, bleeding and wounded, back to the train. In the mall car was Lou Morris, the agent, badly bruised and with several bones broken. His first thought was of his mall and he requested the reporter to go to the post- office and notify them he had a big run of registers, H. H. Halton, the express messenger, was found in his car with his ribs broken and in a critical condition. J. W. Carter, baggagemaster, about the head and internally A relief train was made up here and sent to the scene. The wounded men were brought In and are in the hospital. Posses are at the wreck and great excitement pre- vails, AS OFFICIALLY REPORTED. ST. LOUIS, Feb. 9.—The official received by Vice President .and Thémas Purdy of the Missouri, & Texas from Conductor C. H. Tir- ney does not differ materially from the facts given above. The trajn was No. 3, southbound, and was made up of two chair cars, a sleeper, smoker and baggage and mall cars. The wreck oceurred at $:45 last evening. The fish plates had been removed from the rails and spikes drawn at a point near the Hous- ton Heights bridge. As the train reached the rails which had been loosened, the en- gine jumped the track, followed by the mail and bagage car and two coaches. The en- gine rolled down an embankment whicl is twenty-five feet high at that point, and landed under the bridge. The cars reached the ditch upside down. Passengers in the sleeper, which was left on the track, set about rescuing those imprisoned in the overturned cars After all had been extricated, it was found that Mrs. R. E. Snyder was slightly injured, being bruised and having a number of cuts. J. A. Carter, baggage master, Lou Morris, the mail agent, and Express Messenger H. Hatton were all seriously, perhaps mor- tally wounded, The report does not give the nature of their injurics. The report further states that shartly after the wreck Brakeman Elliott was sent back to flag a_following freight. He had not pro- ceeded farther than 100 yards when a vol- ley of revolvers or perhaps rifle shots was poured upon him at short range from am- bush, two bullets taking effect, in the neck and right leg. His condition is very critis cal. A relief train reached the scene of the wreck about 10 o'clock, and the passengers and injured were taken to Houston. The Missouri, Kansas & Texas officials are at a loss to understand who the wreckers can be, nor can they surmise the object of the wreck. They are unable to determine whether the purpose was robbery or re- venge for a grievance, fancled or real, against the company. Robbery was prob- ably the motive, however. The road’s officials have taken steps to capture, if possible, the men committing the decd, but will do o through their own de- tectives, and will offer no reward. Further advices to the officials here of the Missouri, Kansas & Texas road state the in- jured in’ last night's train wreck are doing fairly well. Mail Clerk Lon Morris, Ex- press Messenger H. Hatton and Baggage- master J. W. Carter suffered the most seri- ously. The first named Is unconscious and delirious, Both Morris and Hatton could not be forced to leave their mail and ex- press safes until the property in their charge had been properly cared for. - They thei collapsed. ~ Sherift Ellis and City Marshal Errickson with a pc and bloodhounds have struck a trail and are following it with the expectation of catching the criminals. last heard from them wasg that the trail was injured report General For the Childr A child_of Mrs. Willlam Kelsey of Wav- erly, N.

Clint Morgan lives at the corner of Twen- tieth and J streets, and among Clint's worldly possessions was a coop filled with fine yellow legged chickens which were being fattened for the family table. Some timo in the night a thief entered the hennery and not only stole sixteen out of a bunch of seventcen pullets, but chopped their heads off and left them so Mr. Morgan would not make any mistake in the number he lost. The thieves also stole the ax used in_butchering the chickens. From Mr. Morgan's place the thugs went to the residence of J. T. Laur, Twenty-first and J streets, and stole nothing but a five- gallon can of il quantity For a Public Library.
