R ———— 8 KILLED HIM IN SELF DEFENSE | Dodrill's Allegations as to the Stabbing Which Caused Ryan's Death, STATEMENTS OF DEFENDANT IN DETAIL ony of Other Witnesses in His Be- half—Arguments Will Be Made Today allahan Damage Case ~Other District Court Matters, Testh In the criminal division of the court yesterday the trial of George Dodrill for murder continued. In the morning the prosecution rested and the defense commenced the introduction of testimony by placing Walter Scott, a Bur- lington switchman, upon the stand. Scott remembered the night of the murder and had known Dodrill for about three years. Shortly after midnight of the night when Ryan was killed Dodrill, Wilson and Ford came to the frelght house, where witness W employed. Dodrill was covered with blood, which was flowing m three wounds upon his head and from numerous scratches on his face. George Adams, another Burlington switch- man, had known Dodrill for a long time and knew him to be a law-abiding citizen. On the night of the murder witness saw Dodrill at the Burlington freight hou and noticed that he had been drinking. Blood was flow- ing very freely from three wounds on his head and he had the appearance of having been in a fight o he had got the worst of the deal. At the afternoon session court the Introduction of testimony was completed and the arguments were com Nod. his morning the arguments will be finished and the ¢ will be submitted to the jury. During the district | of the criminal session of the court held yesterday afternoon Dodrill went upon the Witness stand and gave his version of the commission of the crime with which he is charged He testified that he was in the Davis house on the evening of July 16, and that while he was there two bottles of beer were bought, he paying for his share, which was 25 cents per bottle. In paying his pro- portion for the second bottle he tende red a $5-bill and received $4.50 in change. Look- ing_at the money, he called fhe attentic of May Davis, the proprietor of the house, to the fact that he was entitled to more money. When he made the remark Andy Ryan commenced to call him vile names, after which the witness stated that he did not care for 25 cents and did not want to have any trouble. Ryan then jumped upon the witness and commenced to pound him in the face, hitting him several times, while George Dwyer was holding him by the coat collar that he ,might be prevented from striking Ryan in return. Finally the row in the house was trans- ferred to tho street, where Ryan and his friend, Dwyer, continued to strike and wound witness. After having fought for gome time, Ryan and his chum went west on Dodge street, where they laid in walt for witness, who had occasion to go that way a few minutes later. As witness was walking towards where the men were stand ing, Ryan approached and again applying foul epithets to the witness, hit him upon the head with some sharp instrument, knock- ing him down. Before he could rise to his feet, Ryan jumped upon witness and com- menced striking him in_the face with his flsts. It was then that the witness took his Xnife from his pocket and inflicted the wounds which caused Ryan's death. After having plunged the knife into Ryan seven times, Ryan rolled off witness' body, and getting upon his feet, staggered to the rear of George Dwyer's saloon, where he died a few minutes later. In detafling the account of the fight, Dod- Till maintained that he acted in self-defense, and was cxpeeting that Ryan would take his life. il A That Callaban Damage Ca Tn Judge Hopewell's court the case of John Hansen against Edward Callahan, Willlam Bennett, Charles E. Waddell and Edward Cullinan Is attracting the attention of twelve Jurors and as many attorneys. The plaintiff Is seeking to convince the jurors that he is entitled to recover damages n the sum of $10,000 from the defendants on account of injuries sustained at their hands, This case comes from the bottoms in the vicinity of Florence lake, where both plain- tiff and defendants claim titlo:to a strip of land along the bank of the river, which, it is alleged, has been formed by accretion. Long years ago Callahan had some land in that part of the country and owing to the changes in the channel of the river a tract of lowa soll was thrown up against his possessions. Upon this tract the plaintiff moved his family, bullt a house and took possession. From that time on and until the middle of March, 1892, there was a continual fight, some- times the advantage being in favor of one party and then the other party would be the winner. Hansen now alleges that on March 16, 1892, while he was in the seclusion of his own domicile, preparing for the night, these defendants came to his door, called him out and filled his legs with bird shot, causing him much pain and humiliation, The defendants tell a difforent story and allege that the fighting was all done by Han- sen and the members of his family. She Wants Five Thousand. The case of Lillle Leigh, administratrix of the estate of Elmer Leigh, deceased, against the Omaha Street Rallway company is on for trial in Judge Keysor's court, where the plaintift is seeking to recover damages in the sum of $5,000, sustained by the loss ot her husband. During the summer of 1880 Elmer Leigh was a driver on the horse car line on Twentieth street, running from Lake street north to the fair grounds. In the month ot September of that year and while the Doug. las county falr was in progress Lelgh was kicked to death by the horses which wero drawing the car. His wife brought suit in the district court, alleging that the horses which her husband was compelled to drive were viclous and unmanageable; that peoplo crowded Into the box where he was standing, thus frightening the animals. In 1891 the case was heard in the courts of this county and a verdict returned for the defendant, The case was appealed to the supreme court, where the verdict was set asido and a new trial ordered. or Breach of ot Bofore Judge Ambrose the trial of the cause of Charles W. Thompson against Gun- ner A. Lindquist {s in progress. The plain- tINf is seeking to recover $6,000 damages, al- leging the breaking of a contract which was entered into some six years age The plaintiff alleges that in 1387 he bought tho defendant’s interest in a tallor shop in this city, paying $16,000 for the same, with the distinct understanding that the defend- ant would not engage in the same line of business in Omaha for the period of three years. Notwithstanding the amount of the purchase money paid and the terms of the contract, since that date the defendant has engaged in the taflor business, and upon sundry and divers occasions has interfered with the business of the plaintiff by mis resentations and by diverting his trade to other firms In the same line. Kolth Went in the Hol Some months ago Charles Keith, a Kansas City traveling man, who for a time was in the employ of Willlam Deering & Chicago, Instituted a suit in the courts of this county, alleging that he had been charged from his position and that there *was a balance of $1,100 due him on account As the time passcd along Deering answored and filed a counter clain, charging that by r on of some business transactions in con- nection with a branch house at Kansas Keith got hold of $35,000 worth of company property during the year 1892, and that he had failed to account for the ne. The case was heard (n the courts and yesterday Judge Blair rendored a judgment in favor of Deering for the amount claimed, Tourt Cullings.

City ticket offico, No. 1401 Farnam st. e e MR. WILEY’S COMPETITOR. Something About the Electric Lighting Firm that Secks Business in Omaha. “There is one little inaccuracy In the ref- erence made by The Bee to the new company submitting bids for doing the electric street lighting,” said Mr. E. T. Pardee yester- day, “and that is intimating that it is the Fort Wayne Electric company that is behind the move. While it is a fact that I am a representative of that company, it Is also a fact that this company’s only interest in the matter is that it will furnish the machinery and supplies in case we get the contract, as the people we are representing in the matter are a number of your local as well as some outside capitalists, “That Is the only interest of the Fort Wayne company In the matter, although 1 personally have a further interest in it, and the bid of Pardee & Co. is a bona fide one, It means that if wo get the contract we will furnish street lights for $§112 each per annum, and we also give a radical reduction in the cost of electrlc lights for commercial lighting. Of the standing of the Fort Wayne com- pany and the quality of its machines I need not speak, as these matters are perfectly familiar to all in the electrical world, It is only necessary to say that our machines are now lighting over 200 cities and towns in the country, representing a total of 41,- 669 arc and over 400,000 incandescent lights, while we also have 108 direct current plants in operation. We have a plant at St. Louis operating 5,800 arc lights, which s the largest arc plant in the world, with 3,000 lights in Philadelphia, 2,900 in New Orleans and 2,300 in Detroit. The city of Wheeling, Va., owns its plant of 500 lights, which we put in, and I may say here that we have put in more municipal lighting plants than any other company. So far as our re- liability Is concerned, and the curiosity of some of the members of the city council to know whether we have any plants any- where in operation, 1 think we can furnish evidence that will be eminently satisfactory. “We are putting our machines in the Edi- son central station, and have replaced the Thomson-Houston machines in a number of the largest stations in the country. o far as our abllity to furnish a cheaper light than the company that is now lighting this city Is concerned, there is no question, and 1o one knows it better than the reprosenta- tives of that company. We can, and it we get the contract we will, put in a plant here that can furnish light at a figure that would bankrupt the present company to meet They simply cannot compete with our im- proved machinery, and every eleetrician well knows it. Prevailing rates in this city for electric lights are exorbitant, A charge of $12 per month iy made for arc lights running until 10 o'clock. That is unreasonable, and it we get the contract it will result in a much lower price than that. 1 have put in considerable” time in this city during the past few months, with a view to submitting & bld when the time came, although 1 had not expected that it would be before the 1st of May. The fact that the advertisement for bids wanted the successful bidder to begin Jurnishing lights by the 1st of March does not strike me as a vel cordial invitation to outside companies to come in with a propo- sition, So far as our ability to do what we undertake 15 con ned, we can furnish an abundance of proof from some of the most promir t men in this elty, 1 am not at libe Just ¥ to announce the names of the Omaha men who are interested in this matter. They are very much in earnest, but they are not yet ready to figure con- spicuously in it, although ag soon as matters have progressed a little farther all questions as to our Intontions, backing, and p connections will be eheerfully and fully an- swered,” Milk De i Fight., The Omaha milkmen will fight the enforce- ment of the milk ordinance recently passed by the council, They claim that the city has no authority to pass an ordinance pro- hibiting the use of brewers’ malt for food so long as it cannot be shown that the use of such feed is injurious either to the cows or the quality of the milk produced. There will be a meeting of the Milk Dealers assoclation at Wolft's hall, Twenty- second and Ouining streets, Saturday night, at which the plan of campalgn against the enforcement of the ordinagce will be die- cussed, . ol sonal | { | THE DAI AFFAIRS AT SOUTH OMAHA| OMAHA Trustees of the Library Association Eleot Officers and Make Regulations, CONTRIBUTIONS OF BOOKS SOLICITED Matters with Which the Executive Com. mittee of the Taxpayors League Is Busying Itself-Other News from the Magle City, The board of trustees of the South Omaha Public Library and Reading Room associa- tion met last night at Prof. A. A. Monroe's office In the High school building and per- fected organization. The officers are: Prof A. A, Monroe, president; W. J. Taylor, sec- retary; Miss Hettle Moore, treasurer. It was decided to open the reading room in the office building just north of the post- office, Mondey evening, February 19, books to be accessible as soon thereafter as they can be catalogued.

Taxpayers Leugue. There was to have been a meeting of the Taxpayers league Tuesday night, but the at- tendance 50 small that an adjournment was taken without any business being transacted. The executive committee of the league has been active of late and has arranged a batch of recommendations which it will spring at the next mesting of the league for its en- dorsement. Their one object seems to be to cut down the running expenses of the city and their wholesale demand for heads covers a good many of the departments. In the first place, they will ask that the police force be reduced to eight men. There are thirteen in all now. For the abolishment of the office of street commissioner. For the abolishment of the office of a deputy city clerk and a deputy city treasurcr. That the office of inspector at the stock yards be done away with; that the city electriclan be dis- missed and the fire chief also. Some of the committee went 8o far as to suggest that the salary of councilman be cut off. This in all would reduce the running expenses of the city several thousand dollars a year, and the committee is of the opinfon that' matters would run along just as smoothly as they do now. All these recommendations will first g0 to the league and if endorsed there will be sent to the council with the request that they be enforced. The special committee from the league that was to meet with a speclal committee from the council to devise some means to as- certain the legal class of South Omaha has never met. There is a wide difference in the ideas of the two bodics in testing this matter, and it will be quite difficult to come to an agreement. Ed Johnson of the leazue wants o take the matter direct to the su- preme court, while City Attorney Van Dusen advises that the test be made in the Beckett-Walters case which is now pending in the district court. The only objection Mr. Johnson has to this proposition is that it will take too long to reach a decision. Among [ Every night for the past week the police station has been fliled with sleepers. There were twenty-five last night, and this is about the average number. Many men come to South Omaha thinking that they wil be able to secure work in one of the packing houses, and as most of them are penniless when they get here, night overtakes them, and they have no money or a place to stay.

Four cases have now been reported and with the exception of one, and that the first one, they have remained at the hall and existed as best they could in that unwholesome place, but the best that was available. The most recent case fs that of a young man who was stricken Tuesday night. He, like all the others, was a stranger in the city and before he came to the hall had not eaten anything for two dayg; his feet were out of his shoes and his clothing only a semblance of covering. He went to the hall, and, as he was a very willing fellow, he was put’to washing dishes and served in that capacity till Tuesday, when he was taken down.

What Business' Pluck and Popular Favor Hawve Accomplished. Eight days ago the Boston store, at the corner of Sixteenth and Douglas streets, wa a smoking mass of ruins, An Immense crowd saw the destroying element of fire re- lentlessly deprive Omaha of one of its most popular and extensive retail emporiums. Yesterday the Phoenix of the Boston store arose from the ashes, flapped its fireproof wings with delight and perched with proud serenity upon the new quarters of the enters prising firm of J. L. Brandels & Sons, at th corner of Fifteenth and Dodge streets, forms erly occupled by the Bell Department store. The doors of these temporary quartes were opened yesterday. Was there a crowd there Most decldedly so. Over 4,000 people surged through the aisles and took advantage of the greatest dry sales on the face of the earth. Men, women and children elbowed their way through the entrance. It was a congres of happy citizenry, People know when they have a good thing. The reputation of the Boston store forms a magnet around which success always clusters, When the doors of the new headquarters for bargain seckers were swung open yesterday it was not necessary to place a sign of “‘welcome” over the entrance. The two words ‘‘Boston store’ were the sesame to the hearts of Omalians, and they expressed their unquali- fled esteem for the establishment by flock- Ing to the opening. It secmed as though all Omaha was there. People heartily grasped the hands of J. L. Brandeis and his sons, Emil, Arthur and Hugo. With a depth of sincerity in thelr volces they rejoiced over the fact that the firm was once more in the mercantile swim and ready for business, The commendable pluck and marvelous energy of the firm in resuming business so quickly following upon the heels of recent misfortune, was a sub- ject universally praised by the thousands of friends who welcomed thelr return to busi- ness circles yesterday. It was a ‘red letter” day for the Boston store. A stock, new in its entirety, greeted the patrons. Mr. Emil Brandeis purchased the bulk of it while on his recent eastern trip. It is valued at $100,000, and there are no old goods of any description on the shelves. The basement is filled with blankets, flan- nels, white goods and basement bargains. The first floor is devoted to dress goods, silks, losiery and shoes. On the second floor is a complete stock of cloaks, wraps, millinery, muslin ard underwear. The third floor s reserved for surplus stock. All the old employes, 150 in number, were behind their respective counters. Happiness was depicted upon every countenance, and they attended to the great crowd of patrons with rapidity and customary satisfaction. At the main entrance visitors were greeted with a huge floral horseshoe. 1In the center of the emblem of good luck hung a photo- graph of the ruins of the recent Boston store fire. On tne top of the photograph was an inscription which read, *You cannot keep good mien down. Every department of this temple of enter- prise was jammed with throngs of people during the day. Public interest in the event and the popularity of the firm were fully demonstrated. The present quarters of the establishment will only be occupled temporarily. Messrs. Brandeis & Sons will rebuild, as soon as pos- sible, upon the old site of the Boston store at the corner of Sixtcenth and Douglas. The new buflding will be strictly in accord with modern architecture. 1t will be four stories in height and absolutely fireproof. In the meantime the firm will transact business at the present headquarters at the corner of Fifteenth and Dodge streets, where all cus- tomers will be treated with the courteous consideration which has for years been a standard of the Boston store The success achieved at the opening yester- day fully attested the popular grip which the Boston sture retains uvon the hearts of the people of Omaha. With full realization of this fact, Messrs. Brandeis & Sons will en- deavor to merit such public favor in the fu- ture, as they have in the past. Sme e Invaluable for Coughs and Colds. 0. W. 0.

The speaker was a heavy built man, with a rough face and a red complesion, giving his name as O'Brien and claiming to come from Minneapolis. I can bring him to you," said O'Brien. “How much will there be in it for me?” O'Brien claimed to be working in the in- terest of Minneapolis parties and must be well paid. “The man who drove that horse is in Minneapolis now,” O'Brien said, *“and has been there for a year. He bas been receiv- ing money from certain Irvishmen in Chi- cago.” O'Brien declined to say who the Irishmen were. Mr. Bottum was greatly interesied in the story, but said it had come too late to be of service to the state. The man_declined to talk with any one else except Mr. Bottum.
