The trial of Fred Robinson on the charge
of stealing couple of guns from Dr. II. S.
Vests buggy was completed yesterday in
the district court and given to the jury, who
returned a verdict of acqulttal on the ground
that Robinson was drunk when he stole the
property.
The case now on trial is that of the state
against H. Pyburn, who, in company with
II. W. Hodson is charged with obtaining
goods by false prctenses from j. Coyle. A
trade was made several months ago by
which Coyle disposed of his store at Cutoff
island to nybum and Hodson for S4OO note,
which, it is alleged, Pyburn and Hodsoh
represented was secured by Il mortgage on
house and lot i'll Omaha Later, the plaintiff
claims, he found that there was no
mortgage on the house. no house on the lot,
and no lot anywhere that answer the de-
scription of the one Pyburn and Hodson
claimed to sell. The defendants, on the
other hand, claim not to have made any rep
reservations as to the house, lot and mort
gage. The case was not completed at the
hour of adjournment, but will be resumed
this morning.
The hearing of G.. III. Meschendorf on the
change of contempt of court is set for this
morning at 8 o'clock, but Judge Smith states
it is hardly likely to come off at that time
McschendOrf, he says, has monopolized the
court so long that he feels like giving some
one else a chance

lots were mortgagcd for good share OF
their purchase price, aud the houses were
plastcred with mechanics liens and mort
cages before they were finished Several of
the houses have been empty for months ut q
time. and those than were occupied were not
a source of revenue to their alleged owner,
as the rent was gobblcd up on attachments
of various kinds by his creditors. In order
to keep up his payments and secure money
enough TO live on he had to borrow.
As he had no property that would be taken
as security by loan agents he commenced to
use the name of his father, who is comfort
ably fixed farmer living near Oakland, this
state, and whose name was supposed to be
good for any moderate amount. That he
was forger was not suspected by anyone
until within the last few days. To add to
the uncertainty of his financial condition, it
is stated by those who claim to know, that
he has been gambling heavily in Omaha
lately.
His friends say he was naturally hustler,
and liked to make money hand over fist. Tho
constant demands made upon him by his
creditors hurt his feelings, and he rcsortcd
to almost every device he could think of to
make some money, with the above result.
He made considerable money last fall on
Chicago wheat but didn't know enough to
pun out at the right time, and consequently
lost all he had won and a good deal more be-
sides. 1t has always been said by those who
watched his career that If he could make
his real estate schemes work satisfactorily
he would come out $1,000 or 100000 ahead
of the game. but II not he would be com
pletely ruined.
His attorney, George w Hewett says he
has gone to Mexico, and it is undoubtedly
Ben Marks money that took him there. He
is supposed to have started Friday night.
Mrs Bilgcr first received word from him
stating that he had started for Dcs Moincs
but later ON she received a letter, the con
tents of which She refuses to divulge.

BILGEK WAS A FoRGER.


Vigorously.
w. w. Bilger has disappeared and uumcr-
Gus friends are looking for him with a sickly,
far-away look in their eyes that would
change to fiepdish glee if he would sud
denly present himself to view. He was last
seen in Omaha on Friday and since his de-
parture a number of gentlemen have dis
covered that they are the victims to too
implicit confidence in Mr.. Bilgers veracity
and to Mr.. Bilgers wonderful facility in
manipulating the pen.
Ben Marks was the first man to find that
he had been played for sucker He met
Bilger in Omaha on Friday and was pre-
sentcd check for 500 which Bilger
wanted him to cash. 1t bore the signatur
of j. II. Snyder of this city Marks did not
have the money, but he went with Bilger to
William Lineberger who cashed the check
on Marks recommendation, The check WAS
thrown out at the Citizens State bank as
forgery.
1t was then developed that Biger had
been doing land Office business in the
forgery line. A note coming due in six
months from date has been sent down to the
First National bank for collection from the
Waverly bank. The six months expired last
Tuesday. When the three days of grace
We're up it went to protest and notices were
sent to all the signers Among them were
+. NJ. bigger, the father of w. w. Bilger,
and his son-in-aw, w. c. Acker OF Harlan.
never signed such note, The signature of
Mrs A. +. Cosgrove, Blgcr's aunt is also
there, but she claims to have been disabled
by paralysis for long time past, and says it
is n forgery, likewise.
Used His Pen vigorously.
A. A. Clark, who runs chattel loan bust
ness, came to the front yesterday with a
note for 81 900 bearing the names of F. NJ
Bilger and A. +. Cosgrove, together with a
number of others. He took it as collateral
security for Il loan of $3.50 made about II week
ago. The loan was further secured by a
| chattcl mortgage ON all of Bilger's household
goods which Clark supposed were worth
more than the loan. When Bilger bor-
| rowed the money he begged Clark not to
| compel Mrs. Bilger to sign the mortgage on
| the ground that she was nervous and he did
not want her to know that he had been COM
| PEELED to borrow the money. Yesterday
morning after hearing of Bilger's disap-
| pearance, he called at the house for the
purpose of taking possession of the house
hold goods. Mrs. bigger would not
allow him To take the stun away, showing n
! bill of sale that had been executed by Bilger
in her favor transferring to her all the
household goods. II had not been placed on
sale need not be recorded where 1t remains
in the hands OF the mortgagee, Mr., Clark at
! once saw that he had been swindled out OF
the whole amount of the loan.
Ill. j. Chambers also holds note for s., 900
bearing the signature of Bilgers father. He
spent yesterday in Oakland, the residence OF
Bilgers father, trying to induce the old man
TO make some sort OF a settlement.
