WORK OF TRAIN WRECKERS Bome Testimony Presented to the Coroner's Jury in This Line. INQUIRY INTO THE ROCK ISLAND HORROR Lonst the at n Expert Testifles that Two Men Must Have Been Co Devillsh Deed—-Othe Hofore the Coroner. orned Witnesses LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 13.—(Special Tele- gram to The Bee)—The inquest into the death of the eleven persons who perished in the Rock [sland wreck was resumed this morning at the court house, D. J. Bishop, who had charge of the construction of the bridge, was the first witness called. He safd the bridge bullt about ars ago and the timb ra ought to last at least sev or elght years, He thought it Impossible that any defcot In the construction could cause the wreck Danfel Sullivan, Strect Railway compan was two ¥ roadmaster of the Lincoln gald that had the rails spread the train could not have forced the spikes clear out, The sun could not have expanded the rails sufficiently to loosen the spikes, as the marks on the angle plate showed = that the joint was a very loose one. After ex- amining the crowbar, he said that it had been used recently, as marks on it showed this. A bolt was handed him which had been found with the fish plate. He said the nut had been unserewed with a wrench, and examining the plate marks of the cor- ner of the wrench as It had been turned around were plainly visible. In his opinion it was the work of two or more men. One of them must have pulled the spikes, whil the other loosencd the bolts. He sald that the west rail showed that some one had attempted to draw the spikes and to loosen the bolts, and he thought that one mau, after he found he could not pry out the spikes, would not have attempted to loosen the bolts, and that they then both proceeded to work on the other side. He continued that he was at the scene of the wreck about twenty minutes, and this time was sufficient to satisfy him that the rail had been re moved. Mr. Sullivan said he had had twenty-two years of experier nd his tes- timony was “introduced as that of an expert in_the matter. Two other witnesses, Saxton and Fowler, were examined, but nothing was developed. An adjournment was taken at noon until 2 o'clock. AFTERNOON'S SESSION. John G. Sidell was the first witness called to testify in the afternoon. He said he lived about a quarter of a mile from the scene of the disaster and was one of the first spec- tators there. He saw a colored man there. Had never seen him before and would not recognize him again if he saw him. He no- ticed that he did everything that he was told, but did not act for himself. It took him about twenty minutes to reach the wreck and he thought it would take any one at least an hour to come from the city with a good ‘horse. J. Richardson said that he was a sec- tlon foreman on the Rock Island road, with headquarters at Rokeby, a small station northeast of the city. The bridge In ques- tlon was not in his territory, but he was on the bridge about 8 o'clock on a handear. He was out with his crew, just passing the time, and went swimming with two of his men. He sald that they pushed their hand- car out about 100 feet to watch the Union Paclfic passenger train pass. He did not notice anything wrong with the track on the bridge as they passed over it. He ex- amined the crowbar introduced before and compared it with one of the kind used by the Rock Island workmen, and showed whereln it differed. - Continuing, Richardson said that he was notified of the wreck about 11 went immediately to the scene. the. loosened rail nothing new from his testimony. F. 8. Clark and Manager Humpe of the Lincoln street railway took the stand, but they were present at the wrick merely as spectators and could throw no new light on the subject. W. P. Flannigan, a section hand, testificd that he was present at the wreck and guarded the track on the bridge until next morning. Mr. Saxton was recalled and said he and Brakeman Foote had examined the track for 100 yards back and found it in perfect condi- tion. Adjournment was then taken until to- morrow. o'clock and Concerning developed DAVIS' PROSECUTION. The county attorney says he thinks it will take nearly two more days to complete the testimony and he will not institute pro- ceedings agalnst Davis until the jury has rendered its verdict and then he will direct his attention to the evidence against him. The negro Davis refuses to talk with the newspaper men, saying that his lawyers have forbidden him and if it was not for this he would be willing to tell all he knows about the wreck. He still denles that he was ever confined in the state penitentiary, though he has been rocognized by both John and Will Dorgan and several of the guards. De- spite this, he has all the marks that were noted on him when he entered that institu- | tion, including a bad scar under the eye and the crook in his little finger. He neither afirms nor denies anything and has never | sald a word about being imprisoned falsely | or made any complaint to any one. To a reporter he said: ‘““There are several who are trying to stick me, and they may do it, but I think I will get out all right.” This 18 consldered by some to be the most da aging statement that he has made, as he did not say It in the manner an innocent man would, and on the whole has conducted himself in a way that would not allay the suspicions against him. ' NO STATE REWARD. Governor Crounse returned from Long Is- land at noon today, where he has been taking a week's rest. e says that he enjoyed him- self immensely and was sorry he could not stay longer, but he thought that he was needed at the capitol In view of the trouble that has becn in progress during the past week. Ho said he felt much troubled when ke heard of the wreck, but has not had much time to look Into it yet and does not know whether he will offer any reward for the arrest and conviction of the supposed wreckers or not. Farmer Saxton says he intends to put in a claim for the reward for the arrest of Davis, as he thinks he has as much right to it as Lonsdale. He says that he was the first one to suspect the negro and told Malone to arrest him. Davis, he says, applied to him for work about three weeks ago, but he referred him to a farmer named Reynolds, who lives just south of him. He had not seen him again until the night of the wreck, The funeral of B. H. Zernecke was held this afternoon at the residence, 1118 Wood street. Rev. Byron Beal officlated.
