AGAINST TRANSFER SWITCHES, Judge Chapman Declares that the Law is neonstitutional. PLATTSMOUTH, Neb., Jan. 16.—(Special Telegram.)—Judge Chapman has handed down his opinfon in the Holt county transfer switch case, whereln It was kought by the State Board of Transportation to compel the Fremont, Elkhorn & Missouri Valley and Sioux City, O'Neill & Western railroads to put In a connecting switch at the town of O'Neill in accordance with the provisions of the transfer switch law enacted by the legis- lature two years ago.

Judge Duffle ‘has decided the damage sult brought by Felder against Omaha In favor of the city. The suit was for $300, which the plaintiff claimed had been awarded him for damages sustained by the filling up of Poppleton avenue, near Fourth street, in front of his residence. He based his claim on an ordinance passed by the council stat- Ing the necessity of filling the street, As- sors were appointed to adjudge damages in case the work was done, and Felder's damages were put down at $300. The coun- cil, however, never passed an ordinance dering the work. From the evidence it shown that the street had been used as a dumping ground for the ecarth taken from other grading by contractors, as it was not up to the requisite grade, but it has not been grdered done by the city. Judge Duffie stated that, although the people had been abused, he could not render 1 judgment in thelr favor, as it would be a dangerous precedent to hold that an agent of the city, in this case the engincer, cauld bind the city to damages by ordering tra street to be filled without the wilirmitive action of the council, The motion to reverse taé decision of a Justice court in the case of the Lemp Brew- ing company against Coastab'e Sauseay has been overruled and the case Gismissed, A motion for & new triai In the case of Sadie Clapp against Van Gilder was denfed by Judge Duffie. This is a usury case, in which a judgment was givan in favor of the plaintift. "The grounds on which the motion was based were that ‘the defendants were not present when the case was called, be- cause they relied on the statement of (he balliff that the case would not be called up for several days. In the casc of Ritchie against Bowley, a motion to et aside the sale of property cn the grounds that the deed had been fraud- ulently obtained, was denied by Judge Duffie yesterday. e HE TOOX HIS OWN LIFE.

The federal grand jury has indicted Milton Slosson, George Johnson, Charles Bailey, George Radel and Miller Marmie on a number of counts in which they are charged with a somewhat bold and extensive practice of rob- bing coal tralns on the Union Pacific railway For months there seems to have been an organized gang of coal pirates at work along the line of the Union Pacific in this state. On December 6 train No. 24 from the west reached Paxton at 8:25 p. m. and stopped for water. Frank Roberts, the night operator, saw three men climb upon a car and a few moments thercafter he says that they commenced to steal coal. When Roberts reached the car they had iwo tons on tho ground and were still helping them- selves with no limit to activity Roberts commanded them to stop. The next instant one of the men, who he test fled was Marmle, shoved a big revolver in his face and with an oath told him to stand back. Roberts was unarmed and complied with the request. Roberts retreated to a neighboting house, where he got a large-sized shotgun, and re- turned to protect the company's propert It is said that after an exchange of shots, in which nobody seems to have been hurt, and the reinforcements of the train crew, the coal thieves were routed. On the night of January 5 Slos- son, Bailey and Johnson robbed an ecastbound freight train at Clarks, O, P. Richmond dis- covered them and reported the affair to the officers. It is sald that several of the above named men stopped at the house of Hansen, a sec- tion hand, residing near Paxton, and it from the clew obtained from Hansen and Night Operater Roberts that Special Officer Canada worked up sufficient evidence to be- lieve that with the indictment of these men an organized band of coal bandits on the Union Pacific would be broken up. The mat- ter was referred to the district attorney and the federal grand jury found a true bill against the parties named, several days ago. Shadow nC ne. People In the federal court room a few days ago were mot aware of the fact that one of the defendants before the bar of Justice, who received a light fine, was none other than a defaulter from an outlying Nebraska county, who was favored with a political office in his county but a few years ago, and was arrested and tried in a district court for a shortage of $3,500, which he could not make good. The case was decided adversely against the defendant. He was sentenced to three years in the penitentiary, but pending the hearing of an appeal to the supreme court he was released on bond. In the meantime he got into fresh trouble and was brought before Judge Dundy, re- celving a light punishment for a compa tively trivial offense against the statute He was recognized in the court rcom by a man from Pierce county, who afterward notified the local federal authorities of his identity. Tondsmen Must Justify. Judge Dundy has authorized the clerk of the circuit court to inform Receiver Slaughter that his bondsmen must justify before the bonds will be formally accepted by the court.
