Yov want LINCOLN, May 23.—~(Special to The Beo) | «1t fs learned that Judge Cunningham ll.i Scott applled to ¢ of the judges of the district ecourt in and for Lancaster county to exchange benches with him. It Is pre- sumed that it was to this Lincoln judge that the judge of the criminal division of the court in Douglas county referred to the other day when he stated that he had se- cured the attendance of a judge outside of the Fourth district to try the Bennett- Rosewater libel case. DBut it appears that Judge Scott reckoned without his host in one case at least. A represcitative of The Bee called upon the Lincoln judge and asked him In regard to the matter. The judge made the following statement: “I received a letter from Judge Scott, I think It was early in March. He asked me to exchange benches with him for a week, saying that he was very desirous of making the acquaintance of the Lincoln bar, and believed 1 would find a week on the bench in Douglas county a pleasant change from my usual routine duties. He did not say he wished me to try the Bennett-Rosewater case, made no reference to that se or to any other specific case. He simply asked me to exchange benches with him. I re- plied to the effect that I was willing to ex- change benches with him if he so desired. I did not think much about the matter. “Some time afterwards, and after the Bennet’ case had been started, I was In Omaha, and with several acquaintances dropped into Judge Scott’s court room. It was just as he was adjourning court. He came down from the bench after court had been adjourned, shook hands with me and passed a few words upon commonplace topies. He did not say anything in regard to his proposal to change benches with me, nor did I refer to it. We have never dis- cussed the matter farther than the first correspondence. “1 am free to say that if Judge Scott re- quests me to go to Omaha to try the Ben- nett-Rosewater case I shall hesitate be- fore 1 consent. It seems to me that with seven judges on the bench In Douglas county Judge Scott should be willing and courteous enough to the other six to request them to exchange benches with him when the libel case comes up. I belleve any of the six Judges would try the case impartially and fairly. With the six judges on the bench it would seem to me very strange that Judge Scott should attempt to go out of his dis- trict to secure a judge to try a specific case. When I told Judge Scott that I was willing to exchange benches with him, 1 did not suppose he had any especial object of his own to gain. I thought he merely wished me to transact ordinary routine business of his court, or I think I should have written to him differently.” A number of Lincoln attorneys have ex- pressed their opinion in regard to Scott's announcement that he had secured a judge from outside of his district to attend to the libel case. One of them sald: ‘““As one member of the Lancaster county bar 1 do not care to have Judge Scott preside over a court in this county while he takes one of our judges to Omaha to wash some of his own dirty linen. Scott should either try the case or turn it over to some one of his fellow judges. His entire action in regard to the matter proves that he Is so ex- tremely anxlous to force a conviction that he dare not trust the trial of Rosewater to a judge who Is suspected of fairness. Scott's proposition to an outside judge is an insult, not only to the judge but to his six col- leagues in the Fourth district.” Affairs nt Falls Clity.

An offer has been made him for his land: “I think there must be some mistake in regard to the assessment of my land. I never get enough rent off the section to near pay the tax, but I have been robbed so often by the officers In this county that I begin to get used to it. We have paid for bullding five school houses, and I suppose if 1 should write and want to know how the taxes come to be so high it would be the same old story: ‘Bullt another school house 10 educate cattle thieves in.' I kind of like the coputation of Knox county, anyway.” KROESNER HELD FOR MURDER Waverly's Marshal Bound Over for the Killing of Holt. DAMAGING TESTIMONY DEVELOPED Accused Sald to Have Given His Vietim No Chance for His Life—Assaulted with a Club and Then Shot, LINCOLN, May 23.—(Special to The Bee.) —Charles Kroesner, town marshal of the ¥illage of Waverly, will answer in the dis- trict court to the charge of murder in the second degree. This much has been decided by Justice Spencer of this city after a care- ful consideration of all the evidence. The principal evidence against Kroesner was given by Michael Ryan, one of the men ar- rested by the marshal at the time of the shooting and who him:elf was the mark for one of the marshal's bullets. Ryan testified that on the forenoon of the shooting he and Holt, the man Kkilled by the marshal, were walking down the street with two compan- fons. Holt was carrying the empty beer keg. When in front of . Loder's store the mar- shal commandad the men to throw up_their bands. Ryan and the other two men did so, but Holt made a movement as if he in- tended to run. Kroesner sprang forward and hit Holt over the head with a billy, Holt sprang backward, and as he did so the marshal drew his gun and commenced fir- ing. The first shot missed its mark, but the second buried itself in Holt's body, caus- ing his death, Kroesner then fired a third shot at Ryan, missing him. Holt had no revolver, club or weapon of any kind and of- fered no resistance to the attempt of the marshal to place the entire party under ar- rest. His only fault was a disposition to run. Justice Spencer could not see wherein the marshal was justified in resorting to the use of a revolver to arrest a half drunken man, and he therefore decided to hold Kroesner to the district court. He fixed the amount of ball at $5,000, which was promptly fur- nished, some of the most prominent citizens of Waverly signing the bond. MUST REPLACE THE HYDRANTS. The long controversy between the Board of Public Works and the water works con- tractors over the respective merits of the hydrants recently put In place by Cooper & Cole Bros. has finally come to a most unexpected termination. The firm con- tracted to furnish a number of hydrants of the Matthews pattern. When the goods were delivered the Board of Public Works rejected the hydrants because the contractor had not supplied Matthews' hydrants, but had instead furnished the Galvin hydrants, which the board claimed were In every way Inferior to the Matthews. The city council, bowever, passed a resolution accepting the Galvin hydrants. Cooper & Cole Bros. also presented a bill for the entire number of hydrants they were to furnish, and the coun- cil allowed the bill in spite of the statement of the chairman of the Board of Public Works that but one-half of the full number of hydrants had been supplied. The con- tractors got their warrant and cashed it, and for a time everything was lovely. Last night, however, the chief of the fire depart- ment reported 'to the council that the new Galvin hydrants were not of the size speci- fled and that it was impossible to couple the hose to them. The city council thereupon ordered the contractors to replace the ob- jectionable Galvin hydrants with the ones specified in the bid. The friends of the contractors claim, however, that the city has already accepted and paid for the hydrants with a full knowledge of all the circum- stances, and that, therefore, there is no way for the city to compel the contractors to take the hydrants out and substitute others.

KOREAN UPRISING CRUSHED Government Puts a Damper on the Rebel- lions Spirits There, TOO GREAT HASTE SPOILS THE SCHEME Simultaneous Revolt Was Plunned but One Outbreak Occurred Too Soon and the Authorit es Were Warnea—Five Hundred Reported Killed. VANCOUVER, B. C., May 23.—Through advices received by the steamship Empress of India, it is learned that the trouble that has been brooding in Korea has at last taken definite shape and Chinese soldiers are being poured into that country. The first out- break occurred at Sing La Too, but it was premature through the misunderstanding of arrangements of Insurgent plans by the per- sons at the head of the movement at that point. It had been their intention to have upris- ings all over the country simultaneously and so paralyze the officials and get control be- fore help could be secured. This break, coming before the general uprising, has givea the clew and the insurgents are being ar rested and arms seized at wmany points. What the effeot would haye been had the whole plan worked may be judged from what oceurred at Sing La Too. There 3,000 fully armed men suddenly mustered, and before the guards could recover their surprise the governor's palace was in their possession. No mercy was shown and the governor and his forty officials were put to death, the more detested of them being horribly and dis- gustingly mutilated. Before the troops could be gathered the insurgents were on the march to Zoul. To this point 600 Chinese soldiers have been Qispatched, but at the date of the dispatch it was feared that, fired by success, the rebels would overcome all opposition. Many arrests are being made at Sing K1 Too where another uprising was to have taken place. The rebels are even at this point gathering strength, and it is fearcd that they will set their imprisoned friends freo and fire the city. Not much store is set by the Chinese soldiers, who will turn tafl if anything like determined opposition is shown. At Yokohama the day the steamer sailed the report was received that the Korcans had been subdued with the loss of 500 lives, but this could not be authenticated. CONFIDENCE IN CLE JLAND. nks that Is What Pre- old Premium. LONDON, May 23.—The Times in its financlal article says: Indifferent as the American public appears to be to the great eflux of the gold from the treasury it i3 hardly too much to say that nothing but the confidence of the people In Mr. Cleve- land's sagacity prevents a premium on gold. A vote In congress would be necessary before a gold loan can be negotiated and we can- not learn that any steps have been taken to drag In gold by the cars in that manner from Europe. The public would certainly require a definite announcement that prin- cipal and Interest would be payable in gold before subscribing for a new issue, and if that condition were complied with it would be unnecessary to come to this country at all, for the national banks would then be prepared to take the bonds. The lssue is announced of £6,000,000 of India 3 per cants at the minimum price of 98 to discharge India sterling bills, and for other purposes. The loan is accepted as o sign that no change of policy regarding mint restriction is con- templated and that the government intends to continue the process of keeping mone searce in India, with the object of selling rupees at monopoly prices, even If the India treasuries grew more plethoric. But it may be pointed out that borrowing in sterling does not help India, but will bring home money accumulated there and the loan | London Times Th vents n will prove no remedy for the evils of the situation.
