The jury in the Bryant case had mot ar- rived at a verdict at midnight last night, and the probability is almost a- certainty that they would disagree and would ask to be discharged this morning. Various rumors were incirculation as to how they stood. The one most generally ecredited and that seemed to leak out through the windows and key holes was to the effect that they stood ten to two for a verdict of $5,000 for Miss Bryant. The two old men named Woodward who were charged with contempt of court in arousing the hopes of Attofney Stillman and then smashing them by putting in two watches that were worth . considerably less than he had been led to suppose, were turned loose by Judge Macy yesterday. The watches they had, which they swore were all they had, were turned over to the Teferee. G. S. Wright, to be sold and the proceeds glven to 0. C. Gaston. An old lady with torn garments and bruised and bleeding face appeared at the police station last evening and filed a com- plaint_against her son. The woman was Mrs. Webster, of 1400 South Ninth street, and the son was the somewhat notorlous Dick Webster, who has had frequent deal- ings with the police. The son is a husky, worthless rascal, 24 years old, and the mother s a frall old lady of 60. Last evening she did something that did not suit her son and he assaulted and beat her in ul manner. - The police arrested him and locked him up, and he will have a serious difficulty with Judge McGee this morning. : Hallowe'en pranks were numerous and ex- asperating last night. Among the meanest things that were done was the stretching of wires across the sidewalks in several places, causing & number of painful falls, N arrests were made, but some of the victims threaten to make trouble for somebody today. At 11 o'clock the police received word that the Streetsville and Twenty-fifth street school houses had been almost wrecked by the vandals, and that ncarly every win- dow in the buildings had been broken and serious damage done to the property, A number of extra police were on duty, and many citizens guarded their premises’ with shot_ guns.

E Hart, the mortgagee, to take it to his home for safe keeping, in crder that the employes f the paper might not get drunk. The circumstances under which the removal took place were all recited before the court yes terday afternoon. At the conclusion the judge decided that inasmuch as Mr. Hart was not a democrat, but a republican and a total abstainer, the liquor might be safely allowed to remain at his house until it was sold. But in spite of the fact that liquor was not strictly a salable commodity ex epting by some one with a license, the re- eiver was instructed to count it (n among the as The paper will be sold at auc- | tion November 12, in case any one wants it, and the liquor will be sold along with the rest of the property. THE BANNER MONTIL The Counell Bluffs Insurance Company's Wonderful Record for October. Secretary J. Q. Anderson of the Council Bluffs Insurance company was devoting the closing hours of the month yesterday to the work of figuring up the company’s business for the first ten months of the year. The result was sufficient to make him smile. It showed that the receipts since January 1 had been $60,000, and of this amount the company had been called upon to pay out $20,000 for losses, The total losses for the month of October will scarcely exceed $50, making the smallest loss record in the his- tory of the company. This extraordinary good luck is rapidly making up for the fear- ful losses of June, July and August, when the bulk of the year's losses were inflicted Such a record is a matter of pride to the company and the people of Council Biuffs, and gives new solidity to the strong and pros- perous home company. Wil Be No Joint Debate. It has been definitely settled that there will be no joint debates between Congress- man Hager and Candidate Weaver, as was requested by the Union Protective Labor as- soclation.

Meade, has filed a motion for a new trial, which was argued and sub- mitted In the district court yesterday after- noon. The motion is based on an afMdavit in which it s claimed by W. J. Davenport, one of the directors of the Building and Loan association, that E. H. Odell, the agent of the Insurance company, was aware of the property having been transferred before the fire. They claim that Odell himself admitted this in a conversation with Davenport at a time when his heart went out to Davenport with unusual fervor by reason of his having the franchise for the new motor company | to Manawa. Inasmuch as the judgment was glven in favor of the defendant at the time of the first trial on the theory that the de- fendant had no knowledge of the transfer they claim that this entitled them to another trial, “Lurle” Soclable.

The spe- cific charge, it is said, is blackmail, Chairman Lexow of the senate investigat- ing committee intimated at the opening of today's session that should Commissioner Sheehan show futher recalcitrancy Mr. Goft would be likely to take him off the stand and certify him to the grand jury. Mr. Sheehan was accompanied to the investigation chamber by his brother, the lieutenant goy- ernor. The commissioner had brought some bank books with him, concerning which, he sald: “Because I have my bank books it does not mean that 1 will tell what's in them unless 1 am accused of depositing illegally, and then 1 will produce them mes W. Boyle, Tammany leader of the Ninth assembly district, was first placed on the stand today. “Did you send out a notice,” asked Mr. Goft, “calling for a list of people who were under police control?” “I did not.” ““Now, here is a typewritten slip attached to a circular bearing your name. It is ad- dressed to the election district captains. Will you swear that this slip was not sent out from your headquarters?” “I swear 1 don’t know anything about it.” ASKED TO JOIN TAMMANY. “When a saloon keeper wants a license do you not force him to join Tammany hall?"* “I ask Lim, but use no threats.’ “You go before the excise board interests 2" “No, sir, I appoint an excise committee. “That's 'interesting,” broke in Chairman Lexow. The witness attempted to amend his admission, but Semator Lexow said sternly: “How could a political organiza- tion look after oxcise metters?” “Well, the commission consisted of one man who was a member of the liquor deal- oney | in their Commissioner Sheehan was called to the stand, He was holding several books and some typewritten papers, but declined to tell Mr. Goff what they were. Mr. Goft read an_interview with Mr. Sheehan, published several years ago. He Jaid stress on the statement that advances had been made by Tammany to stop the payment of police blackmall. “Is that true?”’ asked Mr. Goff The commissioner wanted to explain. He would not answer positively “You can be committed exclaimed Mr. G “You had better try it,” deflantly retorted the witn, ‘You'll_answer the questions as counsel wants,” Chairman Lexaw sajd. “I'll answer them in my gwn way." “You have done enough to be committed for contempt a score of times,” exclaimed Chairman Lexow, rapping for order. “Did you ever hear that some one, acting in your name, had suppreswed news swands which sold papers politically opposed to you?" asked Mr. Goff “I heard some thing about it. The man had no authority to uée my name.” “Was a saloon keeper named McDuff told in the rooms of the Pequod club that the news dealer in front of his kaloon would have to cease selling, certain. papers? “Not that I know af.*: ' ) “Did you know that certain newspapers had tried to establish a ‘special delivery in your district?” SHEEHAN WOULD NOT ANSWER. “I heard so.

Then ensued an exciting scene. Senator Cantor spoke up excitedly: “Don’t put that down, stenographer.” ~ Then to Chairman Lexow, “Why don’t you put the question?” The chairman attempted to cut him with his gavel. Bang, bang, bang! “You can't down me,’ shouted Senator Cantor, “‘Come to order,” shouted Senator Lexow, who betrayed considerable excitement. “I'll have my say,” shouted Senator Can- tor. The spectators joined in the uproar. The excitement grew intense, and Senator Cantor and Senator Lexow kept up & flery word bat- tle until the latter, all the while hammering his desk, cracked the gavel. Then Mr. Goff caused additional excitement by saying in a high-pitched voice: ‘“Information has reached me that the ‘room Is packed with Pequod club members, who came here through an arrangement between Senator Cantor and Sheehan to applaud the com- missioner. Let the senator explain.” “Why, this is astonishing," gasped Sen- ator Cantor. *I accused of that. It is preposterous.” “I do not think Senator Cantor would do such a thing. It must be false,” said the rman want the spectators removed,” de- manded Mr. Goft. ““There is a clique here. While I can't belleve Senator Cantor has packed these men in, they are here. “They must mot make any demonstrations or they will be ordered out,”” sald the chair- man. “‘There are only three Pequod club mem- bers here,” broke In the commissioner. REFUSED TO SHOW BANK BOOKS. Counsel Goff asked Commissioner Sheehan for his bank book, but was refused. He denied that he had sald Commissioner Mc- Clane was a {00l for showing his bank books. He also denfed that he had received $6,000 from Policeman Townsend for a promotion to a sergeancy. Chairman Lexow ordered that Sheehan's refusal to show his bank books be lald before the district attorney and the grand jury.

He should be glad of an opportunity to clear himeelf of the charge It he (s a defaulter it should be shown.” Mr. Gofft produced papers and documents bearing the witness' signature for the pur- pose of proving that Commissioner Sheehan had misappropriated $4,000 while comptroller of the city of Buffalo. The commissfoner told him he had re- quested the mayor to have his accounts ex- amined, and when a shorta discov- ered he refunded the amo clalmed that his coupon and became mixed. Mr, Goff aske “DId you turn over to your successor the accounts of the trust fund, the whole of them ?
