THE OMAHA DATLY BEE: FRIDAY, JANUARY 9, 1903, PRESIDENT BURT IS SILENT DAMAGE SUITS N PLENTY|NURDER OF AN OMAHA MAN Returns from New York, but Refnses to Talk About the Btrike, CONFERENCE TO BE RESUMED NEXT WEEK Pres t s the Blacksmitha' Union Asks Representatives from All Steiking Points to As. semble in Omaha, President Burt was in an unusually good fumor when he arrived yesterday morn- ing after hie conference with labor of- ficlals in New York City relating to the strike. It was with a smile and a buoyant manner that he Informed a reporter who met him at Union station that there was nothing to be said about the strike, as the action taken by the conference was well known and nothing could be added till the reassembling here But there the affability of the railroad president stopped. Having sald pleasantly that he didn’t care to talk further attempts to involve him in a can- versation. He had stepped off the Overland Limited train into the arms of a reporter and the latter stuck as far as Tenth and Farnam streets. After that first question bad been asked and answered, however, Mr. Burt became suddenly aficted with some aural difficulty and all outward appearance was unable to hear anything that was being said to him. Queries ad- dressed from a distance of about two feet awoke not a ripple of recognition or con- sciousness on his placid face. He simply would not talk. Mrs. Burt accompanied her husband and was a silent but amused witness of the attempted extraction. The two went di- rectly to their home on Thirty-ninth street. Mr. Burt came to the office later in the day. o The arrival of President Burt has started the strikers guessing on what day the conference will be continued here. Hardly before the middle of next week is the general conclusion, as not all the parties 1o it will reach here before about Tuesday. E. F. Kennedy, president of the local lodge of boller makers, and Dave O'Donnell, president of the boller makers' helpers, telegraphed that they would leave New York last Wednesday, which ehould bring them here Friday. John Slocum, president of the International Brotherhood of Black~ smiths, has notificd Mr. Kline here th he will reach Omaha Saturday. Tom Wil- son, fourth vice president of the Intei national Assoclation of Machinists, has some speeches to make and cannot get in before Monday. Very significant is considered the action of Mr. Slocum in asking Mr. Kline to as- semble here represcntatives of the black- to nference in Omaha. smiths from all striking points by Saturday | to present the cases of the individual loca- tions. This Is considered to show plainly that the thing is all settled save the de- | talls, which the men themselves must ar- range. The blacksmiths will come from Cheyenne and Kansas City and those Denver have asked Mr. Kline to present thelr case. Mr. Slocum wishes thera here when he arrives so that he may have u session with them before the conference. Sam Grace’s Opinion. “One doesn't need to be over optimistic | to see that there are nothing but favorable deductions to be drawn from what has oc- curred,” said Sam Grace, secretary of the district lodge of machinists. “The ad- Journed meeting with the general commit tees here was not the idea of the railroad forces, but our own. We insisted on that when our representatives went east. It is only a logical proposition that a man from each point where the strike 1s on would form a body that would know in detall the individual needs of each point and the gen- eral desires of all combined. These item- ized things the ofeials in New York City 1n our behalf could not know so well. They are very capable of carrying on the nego- tiations relative to reaching a settlement, but when it comes to arriving at just what the men want as terms, only the men them- selves from the locations involved can know. The natural conclusion to reach is that it has been agreed to have a settle- ment, and now they are coming west to bave the men themselves dictate the terms.”* Florida and the Southeast.

TWO ACCUSED MEN PLEAD SELF-DEFENSE One of the Prinon [ Insists that y Started the Fight—Doctors Testity About Marks Fo. on the Dead Hody. The body of James P. Leary, the Omaha man who was murdered at Peeria, 111, last Friday, arrived yesterday and was taken to the family home at 1920 South Fifteenth street. Mr. Leary was killed in a fight In which several men participated and the Peoria authorities are having dificulty in getting at the facts In the case, as will be seen from the following report of the in- quest taken from the Peoria Journal of Wednesday: The most important facts established by the coroner's jury was that Monk and Rog- ers were ihe principals in the fight which resulted in the death of Leary. What part Powells took In the affair {s not known perfectly, but it seems probable from the evidence ‘that he will be held as an ac- complic Char) Baudank, the room-mate of Monk, was the most Important witness put upon ‘the stand. He testified that on the night of che murder Monk and Rogers came to his room at shortly after 12 o'clock and fold him of the fight which they had had This evidence tending to Incriminate Monk will be a stumbling block for the state, since the former witnesses in the case posi- tively identified Powells as the man who jyas engaged with Rogers in the fight with Leary. Nature of the Injuries. Another pecullar fact which was elicited in the coroner's jury was the nature of the injuries from which the man died. Drs, Weil and McFadden testified on: the stand to the fact that they had found no marks upon the dead man’s body to indicate that he had come to his death through the Vlolence of the beating which was admin- istered, but that they found upon the temple’ two delicate "incisfons such as might have been inflicted by an awl or ome other pointed instrument. The doctors testified that the wound might have come from the deceased falling, when attacked, upon a board containing uncovered nail The only authentic story o the fAight un fcrtunately 18 that told by the defendants themselves. According to thelr own a count there were two fights, one on the rallroad tracks and another at the foot of Morton street. Rogers has each time as- rted In talking of the affair that Leary started the fight by kicking Monk and that it was in an endeavor to defend them- selves that the fight began, He states fur- ther that after the stragglé in the r yerds Teary plecked nimself up and fo run up Morton street. He and Monk fol- lowed and fell upon him again, all relling together on the ground. BRINGS IN ANOTHER TRIBE Deputy Marshal Arrives with About Fitty Ina for Witnesses in Court. Deputy Marshal Allan has just returned trom one of his periodical trips over the northeastern portion of the state, bringing with him an unusually large assortment of Indians and a few alleged crimingls. There are over fifty of the former class, and they were yesterday lined along both sides of the third floor corridor of the federal building awaiting their turn as witnesses before the grand jury. Of the latter cl. the only new unfortunate is “Jack” Kenley, who Is now lodged in the county jail awaiting a hearing on the charge of selling liquor to Indians. Deputy Allan tells a thrilling story of a wild ride In the terrific’ wind of Tuesday night. There were four of them in a double carriage coming across the plains of Santee agency on their way to Bloomfield and about six miles north of that town when the at. mosphere struck them. Allan says as near as he can remember he left the carriage very quickly and went some ten feet away and stood on his ear. Another occupant, he says, apparently in éven a greater hurry, made his exit through the top of the car- riage. The other two men were discovered later tangled up with each other and with the vehicle on top of both. For some | strange reason none of them was seriously hurt and they managed to patch up the dam- age and continue thelr journey. Announcements of the Theaters. Sunday night Belasco's “The Heart of Maryland” will be given at the Boyd. It will be continued over Monday night. No matinee will be given because of the com- pany’s inabllity to reach Omaha in time from Denver. The play is promised with a better company and the most elaborate scenic setting it ever had. Alma Kruger will be seen in the role of Maryland C vert. Miss Kruger was the first woman to succeed Mre. Leslie Carter In this role. All of the costumes which are used in “The Prince of Pllsen” are from designs made by the celebrated artist, Archie Gunn, and as there are some twenty odd changes of dress for the chorus people, it can be readily imagined that when they are not upon the stage the chorus is a pretty busy body. This “Prince of Pil- #en’ is reported to be the biggest musical comedy success that the stage has seen in recent years. It is by the same authors who wrote the popular “King Dodo” and is put upon the stage with the greatest care. The scenes all take place in Nice, France, at the time of the “Fete des Fleures,” which is the great event of the winter season. Musically there are sald to be more catchy numbers in the score than are usually to be found in the so- called comic operas and the company is sald to be onme of the largest and best balanced that is touring the country. “The Prince of Pilsen” is to be the attraction at the Boyd Tuesday and Wednesday mat- inee and night. e —— DANDRUFF CAUSED BY A GERM. A New Discovery that Kills the Germ d Prevents Baldnes Pretty nearly all the hair preparations for dandruff have some merit in allaying ftch- ing of the scalp, and in being a fairly good | dressing for the hair, but there is only one | that recognizes what causes dandruff, fall- ing bair and baldness, and that destroys the cause, & little germ—and that is Newbro's Herpicide. This germ eats its way into the scalp, down to the hair root, where it saps that vitality, causing dandruft as it digs up the scalp into little white scales. Unless it s destroyed there's no permanent stop- ping of falling hair and cure of dandruft and baldbess. Newbro's Herpicide kills the germ. “Destroy the cause, you remove the effect.” o) Dens Ralded.

TWO WOMEN TIRED OF LIFE Mrs. O, J. Bemson Cohen Attempt Tre M to End Lo Mrs. C. J. Benson, about 27 years of age attempted to take her own life yesterday in room 118 of the Millard hotel by shooting herself in the right breast with a 22-caliber revolver. She was removed to St. Joseph's hospital. The would-be sulcide went to the hotel about 9:30 o'clock, registered and asked for a room. She was given No: 118. About an hour later a pistol shot rang through the corridor and was heard by several people in the halls below. Immediately the bell on the call board registered and Barney Bennett, one of the bell boys, responded V/hen he arrived at Mrs. Benson's room he found her seated on the edge of the bed holding a blood-statned handkerchief to her breast. In her hand she still held the re- volver. Bennett succeeded in wrenching the weapon from her and immediately re- ported the shooting to the clerk. As the bell boy was leaving her room Mrs. Benson handed him a note which she had written, thinking that her wound would be mortal. Later she snatched the missive from the bell boy's hand and tore it into pleces. Dr. Walker, who happened to be in the hotel office, hastily cared for the woman and later had her sent to the hospital. Her wound is not considered serious unless com- plications should result. Mrs. Benson, who is pretty, 1s said to have had some trouble with her husband during the last few days. Mr. Benson has begun divorce proceedings against her in the district court. He is emploved by the firm of H. G. Streight & Co., 1017 Howard street. Until three weeks ago Mr. and Mrs. Ben- son resided at their home, 2613 Charles street. The suit started by her husband s d to have made Mrs. Benson despondent and that is the cause assigned for her act. Unrequited love is said to have been the cause of the attempted suicide of Miss Louise Cohen, who resides at Eleventh street and Capltol avenue, at 7:30 yesterday morning. While unseen by other inmates of the house she took a quantity of cocalne sufficient to require the services of Police Surgeon Mick. After her life had been saved the would-be suicide said she wanted to dle because her affections for her lover were not returned. After she recovered trom the effects of the drug she was locked up on the charge of being a disorderly per- son and now occuples a cell at police head- quarters. BLOWS HIS HEAD NEARLY OFF H. S. Hibbard Commits Suicid: Within Few Weeks of His Wed. ding Date. H. 8. Hibbard, son of Frank Hibbard, re- siding near Irvington, committed suicide in a most sensational manner yesterday by blowing his head nearly off with a shotgun. No cause is assigned for the act, as young Hibbard was known to be of kindly disposi- tion, and no trouble had arisen with the members of his household. The man was 32 years of age and unmarried. Arising yesterday morning, in advance of the other members of the family, Hibbard went to the blacksmith shop owned by his father, carrying with him a short-barreled shotgun. In the early dawn his act was un- noticed, and the first warning that his rela- tives had was when the echo of the shot came from the bullding. Hibbard is sup- posed to have placed the weapon in an up- right position’ upon the floor, rested his head: on the ‘barrels ‘dnd pulled the trigger with his hand. His‘hedd was badly shat- tered by the charge #Hich was sent into it and made a ghastly sééne. Hibbard was to HaVe” been wedded to a prominent ‘Irvington young woman during the fore part of February. The arrange- ments for the wedding were already pre- pared and the bridal trip decided upon. The victim of his own'hand was possessed of considerable wealth. Coroner Bratley was notified of the shoot- ing and went to the acene of the tragedy. He will not hold ‘an inquest, as the evi- dence clearly indicates that Hibbard took his own life. The deceased is survived by his father, two: brothers—one of whom is engaged In the commission business in South Omahs and' the other employed in the Northwestern depot in this city—and a sister, whose residence is in Lincoln, Neb.
