An in vestigation of the criminal court records ghows that the cases were dismissed on January 6, 1894, on motion of the county attorne HOW PETERSON'S LOTS WENT. In the face of what appeared to be a strong chain of circumstantial evidence, this fact caused some comment, and on looking the matter up a suft was disclosed for the purpose of setting aside the title to three Jots In Grammarcy paric. to which a woman named Sawyer, said to be Attorney Tipton’s sister, now holds the title. These Tots formerly belonged to . Peterson, about 63 years old, who signed the appearance bonds for one of the women who was cused of receiving stolen property. Petes ron now claims that he became mixed up in the case in trying to do a frienly act for Mrs. Guillemott, and that through series of misrepresentations on her part und that of her attoriiey they succopded i beating him out of his three lots, Peterson has lived in Omaha for of years, but he claims he cannot thoroughly understand the Engl 80 that he could be easily misied by d-sigi ing persons. His wife is dead and his chil- dren have scattered out so that the keeping of g home for himself was considered a use- less expense. About (wo years ago he se- cured a_home with these women and did chores around the house for his board. When the somen were arrested they asked him to &0 on their bond, and he Qid so, but later expressed a desire to be released from such an obligation. His friends allege that he d posed of some personal property and us=d the proceeds to assist his female friends in their trodble. At any rate he now claims that he esired to sell his lots and the women told him fo give them over to Atior Tipton and he could soon dispose of them. The at- torney and the women induced him to sigu a document, so alleges Poterson, which has since turned out to be a deed to the property. Peterson now claims that the deed to these lots was obtained by misrepresentation and without consideratfon. His son, who is working at the Barker Lotel, was scen last night and he expressed the opinfon that it Was a put up job on the old man to gain possession of his property. The young man thinks his father is quite susceptible to fem- fnine charms and could be coaxed {nto put- ting his name to documents of which he knew practically nothing by his alleged friends telling him that it was all right, MR. TIPTON'S STORY. Attorney Tipton was seen and asked for his statement regarding these cases and the sult for setting aside the title to the lots. He talked freely about the matter and sald that when the case came up for hearing in the courts he would show that he had an honest title to the property, and that the lots were deeded to him by Peferson at his (Peterson's) own suggestion, and for reasons of his own he had the title made out in his sis name, to be held in trust for himsclf. Tip- ton says that after their arrest Eva Thomp- son, Jennie Guillemott and Anna Beauchamp employed him as the'r attorney, and that Pe- terson came with them and guaranteed their expenses, alleging at the time that he was under obligations to them for their kindnes in the past, and now that they were in tr ble he would not go back on them. Tipton told the women that he would charge them 3600 to defend their cases. All the parties are alleged to have agreed to this and he went to work. Shortly after this the attor- ney says that in order to raise the $600 for the defense of the women Peterson tried to mortgage his property, and failing in this, he offered to glve Tipton a mortgage on the lots as securlty. The lots are said to bhe worth $1,200, and there {5 an alleged incum- brance on them of a few hundred dollars, ‘Then, it Is alleged, Peterson tried to sell the lots, and failing in this he asked Tipton it he would accept the lots In lieu of the agree cash stipulation, The attorney said that he would, and the agreement lted in- the signing away of Peterson's property. The man now seeks to set aside the title, alleging Auress In securing the document. WHEN THEY WERE RELEASED. But the reason why the women never came to trial on the charge of receiving stolen property does not seem clear. Tipton says he went to the county attorney and after relating the circumstances under which the women_ became connected with the Larsen and Brunswick robberies they were dis- charged from the criminal court in January Tipton was asked how it was that he secured the dismissal of the case and he said that he never left a stone unturned in behalt of his clients, and that while others may have thought that the women were connectsd with the robbery as charged, he believed that they were innocent, and succecded in con- vincing the county attorney that that was the case. The county attorney says that he belleved that he had convicted the right parties connected with the robbery and that the women had nothing to do with recelving or concealing the goods which were found in Fleming's room. The present status of th cas® seems to be that Peterson Is out thre good lots, Tipton secured a fine, fat fee and the women have escaped criminal prose cution at the cost of their triend’s credulity. women a preliminary Judge Berka the district who the women 8 sight, but number read or h languag, old MUST GO TO STATE'S PRISON, E of a Forgery Cuse In the Supreme Court, The strong arm of the law out, wrapping its folds about shimer, and for the next make his residence with the warden of the penitentiary at Lincoln, as the supreme court of the state has so ordalned During the month of February, 1891, Hock- enshimer was arrested on the charge of for- gery, the information alleging that to a note for the sum of $250, made payable to Frank Lindhorse, he had forged the names of Robert Price and John Riley, and that afterward he had converted the note iuto cash by selling it at a discount to an in nocent purchaser, who knew the allc makers and considered the deal a grand portunity to make a few dollars, In the police court Hockenshimer waived examination and the case went to the district ourt, where, in the criminal division at the ay term, 1891, the trial was had before has reached Hocken- four years he will cuting jury re term of | Estelle J, Matoney ng ont a few hours turned a verdict of guilty and later the man was sentenced to a four years.

Suddenly the plank broke and the plaintiff was thrown to the floor.

Heberling of Denver, W. . Downey of Evanston, Wyo G. B. Miller of Omaha, Memaugh of Portland and E. L. Biggs of Glen's Ferry, Idaho, representing the organization The petition in substance asked for restoration of their salaries, cut by a general order of August 26, 1893, which was accepted at the time the receivers refused them recognition and transportation; the petitioners deplored the diserimination in protecting wage schedules; asked for a continuance of pay in effect un der circular No. 61 under date of November and submitted correspondence which had passed between their representatives and the receivers, in which the former were de- nied official recognition as members of the unfon. Judge are James a as a temporary reduction; had m Duffie and John D. in behalf of the petitioners. Judge Kelley looked after Union Pacific interests. Judge Duffie, in his argument, said that the Amer- ican Railway union admitted any employe of a railway company. its membership on the Union ific system numbers 2,300 men Of this number there were 100 engineer 400 trainmen, 200 yardmen, 700 shopmer 800 trackmen, 1,200 office men, 100 bridge and building men, 200 freight handlers. Judge Duffie said that the American Rail- way union had sent delegates to Omaha to be heard in a conference with relation to wages, but had been denied that right, and had also been unable to receive a hearing before Judge Caldwell. The members of the organization were poor men and came here at their own expense. He presented the case in open court Thursday because he had beon assured the men would have judicial recognition at that time, but Judge Caldwell had referred them to th rs. The receivers, through Judge had told them that their remedial course was the court, continued the speaker. He said that the men receiving the best wages on the system had been recognized, but these poor men had been shut out Judge Dundy was on his mettle, rupting Mr. Dufle in his remarks, phatically exclaimed: “If it Is stated that such a cut has been made in the wages of these men connected with this organization—or outside of it—on this railroad, when others who are drawing higher pay have been so highly favored, I will see that those whp are drawing less pay will be treated the same way and 1 will advise that the old pay be restored. Still, I is but fair to the other side that they should have notice. You have to rely a great deal on the testimony of railroad men in these cases, and they should have notice, and I suggest the propriety, when Mr. Dickinson returns, of making the order. TROUBLE ON JENKINS' ACCOU ¢ T have got myself Into difficulty as you readily can see by following the order Judge Jenkins made in the Northern Pacific case when he allowed a schedule reducing the pay and fixing in the order that the | ties were bound to comply with it, when no notice, not a minute, was given. I do not propose to get myself in that shape again and be denounced in open court where I have to preside at times; I followed his or- de though mine wa less stringent than his, when he did not give the men a min- ute notice, and now I am denounced all over the country for doing the very thing he did, when [ was following a precedent he set. My term of court commences at Nor- folk on Monday, but if neccssary [ will postpone that in order to have a speedy hearing in this case.” In conclusion Judge Dundy said: “If you want to make application to have the ‘old pay restored, I want you, and every other one of the employes on the road to under- stand that If they have been wronged by the reduction that they will not have to join any union in order to get a hearing, be- cause, as I said before, 1 will hear one per son that has a grievance, or 1 will hear a hundred, or a thousand, or four thousand— as they claim to have in this un will make no distinction between t I made the order in the first ins when this order was made on January 27, glving and granting the right to all the employes to come Into court and have the mafter « termined if they felt aggrieved. But some of them instead of doing that commenced firing threatening letters at me and ignored the order I made for their bencfit. [ sim- ply authorized the receivers to put in force the schedule that had been made, 1 did not order them to; it was wholly unlike the ono in the Northern Pacific case. There the Jjudge in making the order which I followed not only did what I have doue, but directed and ordered the receivers to put it into force, and I never did that.” After discussing a date for Dundy issued an order for tives of the railway company to appear before him on next morning at 10, o'clock, at which case will be heaxd. Judge Dundy also issued an order directing the receivers to furnish return trausportu- tion to the five delcgates of the Amcrican Railway union now in the ety The new rules and regulations rea First—There shall he no discrimination or favoritism in relation to the treatment of employes.
