8 JUDGE SCOTT 0 GAMBLING Olerk's Peculations Give Him a Text for a Vehement Leoture, SCORED EVERYBODY HE COULD REMEMBER County Attorney Kaley Given a Taste of the Displeasure—Fred hisi's Ciuse of the Outburst urt Dolngs Court's Lue Case th Other € I the section The large room county building where the criminal of the district court is held, was turned Into a lecture hall yosterday and for a time Judge Scott, \ding maglstrate, delivered one of ching selecting “Gamb- g for th discourses, subject. For four years Fred C. row 24 years of age, had been the con- fidential clerk and trusted employe of the Omaha News company of this city. Last October H. J. Banker, the manager of the concern, had occasion to leave the city for a few and upon his return he dis covered that Lucchisi had drawn $040 of company funds out of the bank and had skipped. The matter was turned over to the police and Captain Mostyn was de- tailed to locate the aulting clerk in his hiding place. Like many other cases of a similar kind there was the tell tale letter, in this Instanc was written from York city and sent to a woman in , one of Lucchisi's admirers. In the course of time this tender missive fell into the hands of the officer, who at once pro- copded to New York and made the arrest Upon returning to Oma the defaulting clerk waived examination and was held to the district court, where the trial was held last week and a conviction secured U County Attorney Kaley, Lucchisi admitting the taking of the money, but maintainin that it was not a theft, as b m:&lw\‘m that ho' had authority to draw the funds from the bank and that it was only a case of the misappropriation of funds. A motion for a new trial was made, argued and overruled, and yesterday the man was arraigned for sentence. THEN CAME THE LECTURE. 1t was while called upon to impose the gentence that Judge Scott was in: pired to deliver his lecture, the point of which was aimed at the city and county officials. Lucchigi had been ordered to stand up and was on his way to the position in front of the bench when Judge Scott asked, ‘“What did you do with this money which you took from the Omaha M company ?"" “Spent most of it,” promptly responded the prisoner. % “Spend any of it in the gambling houses asked the court, as he warmed up to the b\l"{(‘fl. 5 Left about $200 of it with the ‘Diamond’ and the rest I took away with me when I left town,” replied the defaulting clerk. “That's it e: tly,” continued Judge Scott, as he commenced to boil over with indigna- tion. “You thought that you could make a Jittle money this way and you were dragged fnto this hell. Here you are on the road to the penitentiary and the men W are the criminals are allowed to go free, simply be- cause their robbing is sanctioned by the offi- cials who wink their eyes at the commission of crime. 1 want to say that the man who runs that gambling house is more guilty than you and that if it had not been for him you would have had the money yet.” Here Lucchisi volunteered the information that he bucked the faro table and the roulette wheel. He was stopped by the court, who asked: ‘“Were there any police- men around to see that order was mnlu'-v tained while you were losing your money? Lucchisl declared that he did not see any of the minfons of the law at the time, and then Judge Scott unlimbered his bat- teries again by denouncing the whole affair as most terrible. ‘‘Here,” he #aid, “is a young man going Into a gambling house right here in this city, in a supposed law- biding community, and losing his money while the parties who take it are allowed to go unpunished. It is a most damnable policy and one which should be condemned. A city government shutting its eyes and licensing the commission of a felony for the paltfy sum of $160 per month. They want me to keep still, but I will never keep still while these men are allowed to commit felonfes and their victims are sent to the penitentiary.” ““Purning his attention to Lucchisi once more, Judge Scott said: ‘‘These men who make it possible for you to lose your money and then go to prison, go unwhipped, while upon your head must be wreaked all of the vengeance of the law. “fhe men who sanction and allow this gambling in violation of the state laws are worse than the gamblers themselves. Those men I will condemn and say that they violate thelr oaths of office and perjure themselyes at the same time."” It looked as though the storm was over, but it was not, and again it burst out with renewed fury, while the county attorney caught it, fore and aft. HOW LONG, 0, CATALINE. “Mr. Prosccutor,” asked the court, “how Jong will this thing continue; how much longer am I to be compelled to send boys to the penitentiary; how much longer are these men to go unpunished and how much longer are the laws of the state to be vio- lated right here under your nose?" “I don't know as I have anything to do with tho matter so long as licenses are is- sued and the matter is not called to my at- tention,” . ““There it is again,” retorted Judge Scott, “I am commanded to keep still even if the very stones of the street cry out against this crime." “So far as the commission of the crime of which this man is convicted,” ntured the county attorney, “I don't see as it has anything to do with gambling. If he did gamble, he did not gamble away this money until after he stole it from the complaining witness, and as I understand it, Lucchisi was convicted of grand larceny and not gambling, “There Lucchisl, a man days which are none so blind as those who will not see,” quickly retorted the judge. “If this boy had not gambled, he would not have taken the money, and as I have said before, I am pretty near tired of sentencing boys to the penitentiar. “The trouble with you, young man,” turn- ing again to Lucchisi, “is that you have no politics to dispense. 1f you had any palitics that you could give out, you might be li- consed, which wi ave you from coming up here to be sent 1 to prison.” Maving completed tho lecture, the judge announced that he would think the matter over before imposing the sentence, and with this the young man was sent back to the county Jail. Tngre Mads Agal The old time and much tried case of Ingre Madsen agaiast the Omaha Street Railway company is up for trial again, this time be- fne on before Judge Ambrose and a Jury. On August 8, 1861, Ingre Madsen was o passenger ona South Omaha motor trawn, her destination being Burt street in this city. When she reached the opjective point she stepped off the car while it was in mo- vion and was thrown to the ground, suffering sorious injuries, among which was a broken thigh. Soon after that time she sued the company, placing the sum of $12.200 as the wmount of the damages which she haa sus: tained. At the noxt term of the district court the case was placed upon the docket and then the fight commenced in dead earnest. 'I'he al was a -leagihy nd in the end plaintift recoverod a verdict for fondant moved for a new trial on the ground ti ay the testimeny would not Justify the rendition of the verdict.

George Dodrill on Trial for the Killing of Andrew J. Ryan. The trial of the case of the state against George Dodrill, charged with murder, was commenced in the criminal court yester- duy, and the greater portion of the day con- sumed in the securing of a jury. An information which is fllod in the case charges that on the night of July 16, 1803, the prisoner stabbed Andrew J. Ryan soveral times, fnflicting wounds from the ef- fect of which he died a few hours iater. Both men were switchmen, Dodrill in the employ of the Burlington and Ryan in the employ of the Union Pacific company.

As soon as Mayor Bemis reached his office yesterday he called a conference of tho Board of Public Works, city attorney, city engineer and chief of pulice to discuss meas- ures for a more prompt compliance with the ordinance relative to the cleaning of side- walks after a snowstorm. It was set forth that all citizens failing to clean the walks in front of their residences were liable to arrest and fine, and that all unoceupied property was subject to special assessment to pay for doing thls work. After a lengthy perusal and discussion of the ordinar:ces and hearing an opinion on the subject fr ity attorney the chief of police was instructed to have his patrolmen call on all citizens fuiling to remove the snow from the walks within a reasonable time after the cessation of the fall and refresh their memories with reference to the ordinanance. It was the opinion of the officials there congregated that citizons would promptly heed the warning, rather than submit to the annoyance and expense of arrest and fino, The mayor was of the opinion that it was an outrage to compel people to tramp a path through the snow, when a little attention and exertion on the part of individuals would obviate the necessity of it, Hethought that the majority of people did very well in this matter, but there was generally ono or more in a block who neglected it, and t was sufficien® to mar the appearance of tho whole, and annoy every paser-by far more Ll\:\n the entire cost ot the cleaning would 0. No More Conviet Luba he commissioners of this county have drawn the line on conviet labor and from this time on the cleaning of the snow from the walks about the court house will be done by worthy citizens and not by men from the Ju ‘or years it has been the custom to have the cleaning of the walks on all sides of the county building done by the men from the county fail.

Chief Galligan presented a request for four new men to take the place of two men put on the steamer, one resigned and Me- Kray dismissed. No action on the question of additional men was taken, but McKray was reinstated. W. H.

The committee called attention to the fol- lowing increases in expenditures that seemed to be more than was necessary: Horse feed, an Increase of $015.68; which showed an increase of $391. for miscellancous items. Mr. Strickler estimated that the fire des partment would require for the ensuing yeaf $113,000, and even that sum’ will not allow the purchase of any new material. _The money available on’ the basis of a 5-mill levy will be $51,000, and there is a balanco in the fund of $1,400 from last year. This will leave a deficit of $20,000." An addi- tional mill levy would cover the amount. It was recommended that the most rigid economy be practiced in all departments and that the chief be required to make a requisition the first of every month for the street; Charles . Bouffur, 724 South Thir- same approved by the board. It was recom- mended that all horse feed be weighed on the eity scales, and that the city council be requested to pay the rent of fire engine houses. The report called attention to the splendid service of the engines at the Boston store fire and the poor service of the water works. The board spent considerable time in e ecutive session, considering the items of the report and laying plans for carrying out its recommendations, but came to no definite conclusion, Licenses to sell liquor were granted to: Henry Rosenfeldt, 623 North Sixteenth supplies needed for that month, and have the teenth street; Willlam Schmidt, 1716 South Tenth street; G. W. Tierney, 101 South Thirteenth street, and Omaha Brewing com- pany, 819 Dodge street. The license inspector reported several ir- regularitios by parties whose respective licenses were Issued for certaln numbers, while they were selling at others. The clerk was instructed to notify the parties and have them appear before the board at the next meeting and explain the matier. Mayor Bemis presented to the board an open letter by James Fee, published in the Laborer, making charges that members of the board were countenancing gambiing and prostitution in the city and that some of the members of the board were renting build- ing for that purpose. Mr. Coburn said that one portion of the charge concerning the building called the Travelers Home probably referred to him; that'at one time he rented the building as the agent of the McMenamy estate, but he had long ceased to have any business connection with it. Mr. Hartman sald he had been informed that a building owned by him was being used as a policy shop, but it was subleased for that purpose by the man to whom he rented it “and he was taking steps to get the present tenant out. 3 GAMBLING QUESTION DISCUSSED. This matter, however, brought up the whole gambling question’ and Mr. Strickler made quite an_animated address on the subject in which he urged that the board face the matter fully and squarely and indi- cate to the chief in unequivocal language just what its desires are in this matter, Mr. Hartman moveg the adoption of the substitute offered by him. After considerable talk on the same line that has been given whenever this ques- tion has been before this board, but without developing anything new, Mr. Coburn said that at the next mecting of the board he would have some remarks to make on the subject and then he would be ready and wil- ling to vote on it With this unde and- ing it went over for one week. The question of making some ments with the sheriff to go after fugitives from justice came up, and Chief Seavey sald one reason why he recommended it was that the department needed all its men, as it was short even when they were all here, and for the further reason that It was a matter that always caused more or less jeal- ousy in the department. The resolution was passed.

When the cownty commissioners held the adjourned session yesterday afternoon, Mr. Paddock was absent, which fact accounted for his failing to introduce his famous reso- lution to put a portion of his salary back into the county treasury, but notwithstand- ing his absence the business of the meeting went on in an uninterrupted manner, The committee to which was referred the investigation of the charges preferred against Dr. Lanyon, the county physician, by the Central Labor union, reported that testimony had been taken and that there was no truth in the report that the doctor had been neg- lecting the poor of the county by refusing and failing to respond to the calls for medical tance. This report was adopted and the doctor was given a clean bill, W. John Rush, Herman Kountze, Luther Drake, P, L. Perrine, S. B. Rogers and thirty-cight other property owners pro- tested against the expending of the proceeds of the $150,000 of road improvement bonds upon th three roads designated by the board, glving as the reasons that the city had failed to pave the three roads to the city limits and also that the city was not in a condition to do the work during the coming season. The protest was referred to the committea on roads. The committee on finance asked for leave to check up the accor of the county treasurer In order to at some legul basis on which to make the semi-annual set- tlement. he bond of Charles Brandes was ap- proved and that gentleman was appointed a Justice of the peace in and for East Omaha precinet. Ex-County Judge Eller wrote to the board,, saying that“he had a claim register, over which there had been considerable contro- versy. He claimed that the book was his private property, in which the county had no interest, but that he was willing that the book should go into the ofice of the county Judge, there to remain until such time as the county would decide upon some reasonable compensation for the purchase of it. The matter was referred to the finance committee, and the members thercot instructed to do a little figuring with Mr. Eller with reference to the price which should be paid for the record. Through its officers the Soldiers' Reliet commission accepted the proposition of the county and in the future the parties who are being assisted by the commission will ba supplied at the county store and the amount of the bills charged against the Soldiers Relief commission for the year. The memorial introduced in the city coun- cil, asking that congress appropriate $350,- 000 to be expended along the river front between the Union Pacific bridge and Florence was presented and adopted and the clerk of the board was instructed to forward copies to the Nebraska members in both the senate and the house of repre- sentatives. Policeman Tom Hayes filed a claim for $6, due him as witnoss fees in the district court. He sald that he did not expect an allowance of the bill, but wanted to get in shape so that he might go to the supreme court, in order to make a test case. The law provides that policemen shall not be paid for their services as wit- nesses. The members of tie force contend that the Jaw is not constitutional and for this reason they will ask the supreme court to pass upon the question. Residents of Dundee and Carthage asked the commissioners to designate the roads in those additions as country roads, in order that they might be improved by an expend- iture of a portion of the county road fuzd. An ordinance from the city council, des- ignating the ward boundaries in the city of Omaha, was presented. By the adoption of a resolution the eommissioners accepted the boundaries upon the part of the county. The committee on court house and jail was instructed to fit up all of the rooms in the court house at its disposal for the use of the juries of the district court. The pur- pose of the committce is to put in furniture and lay some carpets. A resolutfon was adopted by which the officers of the county were instructed to check all of the books and movable furniture of their_respective offices and report the same~to the committee on court house and jail, in order that the county may know just how much property it has in its possession. e — ~DeWitt's Witch Hazel Salve cures sores. OMAHA’S GARBAGE. Contractor Macdonald Well Equipped for Business that Does Not Come. The new garbage contract which the city made with A. Macdonald some time ago does not seem to be the money-maker that some of the opponents of the contract claimed it would be. Mr. Macdonald has gone to a considerable expense to get the necessary equipments for the proper handling of the business, but has not been as successful as he desired In getting the business, and claims he is losing money every day on his contract, and sees no chance of doing bet- ter unless the Board of Health enters upon a more vigorous enforcement of the sanitary regulations of the city. Newton Niday, Mr. Macdonald's manager, yesterday showed a reporter over the plant of the contractor. Two dumps have been ar- ranged, one at Jones street and the other at the foot of Dodge street, for the loading of the cars on whicl the sarbage is hauled to the country. These cars, too, have been built expressly for the garbage business, They are on the pattern of the stock cars, and are divided into four compartments, and g0 built that they can be eusily unloaded. At the Jones street plant a house has been built for the handling of night soil and dead animals, This building 15 so arranged that the contents of the night soil wagons are taken in large iron tanks designed for the purpose, and placed on the cars without operfing. The tanks are made air tight and can be handled at any time without being offensive. Eyery equipment that would faciiitate the handling of the business has been provided by Mr. Macdonald. The contractor is now handling two ¢ of garbage daily. One of these cars con- tains about thirty-two square yards of manure and thirty barrels of garbage. This would give the contractor $7.80. The froight on the car is $6, 8o that ho has but §$1.80 on ach car to meet the expense of two dump men and three men and team Macdonald says his expenses are §2 day and his receipts but the proceeds of two (s of garbage daily, o that he \g at least $16 a day In the busin Ho complains that Uncle Sam Is one the customers who is Biving him the we of it.

Mr. Macdonald is anxfously waiting for the Board of Health to get its corps of inspec. tors in the fleld so that the business of cleaning tho city may be done in a thor- ough and systematic manner, Dr. g0 Awarded Highest Honors World's Fair.

One Family G Its Last Loaf of Bread to o Neighh Special Officer Edgehill of Rescue hall had a case reported to him that furnishes an excellent illustration of the true charitable spirit, The case was not reported to him through the regular channels and it was only after chasing up a rumor that he found it out. Up in his neighborhood, and in fact n where he lives, reside two families and both are in equally poor circumstances, neither for the space of two days having any food in the louse. They were neighbors and the children of each family played together, but the acquaintance of the parents was limited. About two weeks ago affairs became worse and for want of nourishment sickness ap- peared in one of the families and with destitution staring them on every hand it was indeed a sorry spectacle that presented itself to the parents. The mother also be- came confined during this time and she lay in bed with only an excuse for a covering. There not ‘a mouthful of food in the house and such a thing as a little nourishing broth for the sick woman was not to be thought of. There she wis without any- thing to cat. Soon they must perish, but they had always been used to plenty and were a little backward about having their circumstances made known. In the mean- time the other family was in a like condi- tion. However, the sick woman must have something to eat and so she sent her little girl to the grocery to get a ioar of bread, but the grocer refused to let her have it without the money." The girl was returning home and crying when she met a playmate, the daughter of the other poor family. The girls talked a few moments and during the conversation the girl who went for the bread related her story and also told about ler mother being il and nothing to eat in the house. Her playmate then said that some one had brought them a loaf of bread and that if she would come home with her she would ask her mother to give her a part of the bread and she could take it home. The girls went into the house and the case was stated to the mother, She at once got the whole loaf of bread and the only thing she had to eat, too, and gave it to the girl to take home to the sick woman, In some way this fact leaked out and kind- neighbors took both cases in hand and the sick woman and the woman who gave up the last mouthful to save another from starving do not want for anything now. The names of the parties are withheld by request.
