Mary GIlmartin Shot by Rev. Father
O'Grady in Cincinnati.
CINCINNATI. o., April 26,-Mary Gil
martin, a clerk employed by the Pul-
vermacher Belt company on Sycamore
street, was shot and killed while
on her way to work. The muir
derer gave the name of George
Reed, but letters found on him
prove him to be Father Dom
mick O'Grady, a Catholic priest
who came from Ireland three
months ago. Miss Gilmartin is from
Sligo county, Ireland. One of her
brothers is Father NJ. S. Gilmartin, of
Chicago Miss Gilmartin met OGrady
in Ireland, where his attentions
caused gossip. Last September she
came to America and has been
in this city since January. The
girl had got on street car to go to her
work, but in some mysterious manner
got off again and was shot almost be
fore her door. O'Grady took arsenic,
but it did not kill him. He confessed
the murder. Among mis- letters was
one written by Miss GilmartIn to the
archbishop in Ireland exculpating
OGrady from misconduct with her.

His Paper Criticizes the Action Of .
Judge, and He Is Fined and
Jailed for Contempt.
RELEASED ON A sUPERsEDEAs.

hhLEASED On n SUEERSEDEAB.
OMAHA, Neb, April 90 Edward
Rosewater, editor of the bee, was SEN
fenced to Imprisonment for thirty days
and to pay a fine of $500 for con-
tempt of court Without being given
an opportunity to appeal Mr.. Rosewater
was ordered taken to Jail at once. and
for six hours he was behind the bars of
the Douglas county Jail At o'clock
the state supreme court granted a su-
persedeas and Mr.. Rosewater was re-
leased until the case can be reviewed
by the higher court
The alleged offense committed by Mr.
Rosewater was in allowing to be print
ed in the Bee local article in which it
was annOunced that there was evident
ly some 2artiality shown to certain
criminals in the district court, as of
two men caught robbing a railroad
depot the poor man was sentenced
to prison and the son of wealthy
parents was given his liberty with
out the case coming to trial. The facts
in the case were not denied, but Judge
c. r. Scott. who had dismissed the case
in question, felt aggrieved at the word
pull" used in the article and had the
reporter who wrote the matter brought
before him for contempt. After a dis
graceful scene in court the reporter
was sent to Jail for thirty days and then
Judge Scott concluded to arraign the
editor of the paper on the same charge,
The case was called for hearing Tues
day, and nearly the whole bar of Doug
las county and hundreds of citizens
were present in court to listen to the
pleas Evidence was introduced to show
that Mr.. ROSewater knew nothing of
the article complained of, that
he was not in the office
on the date of it's publication,
that he had not directed the prepara-
tion of the matter ans, in fact, was en-
tirely ignorant that an article of any
such nature was about to appear. In
spite of the evidence Judge Scott de-
clared the defendant guilty, after Civ
ing him a severe lecture that provoked
some demonstration from the audience.
The judge then started to impose
sentence without giving Mr.. Rosewater
an opportunity to be heard. Mr.. Rose
water Interrupted the court to say
that he would rather rot in forty jails
and prisons than to surrender the lib
erty of the press to criticise public
servants. ''lf there is anything that 1
am guilty Of" he declared, ''if have
been guilty of any contempt at ali, it
was the contempt of my fellow citizens

Strikers Propose to March on Miners
Working at TOIuca, Ill
SPRING VALLEY, Ill, April q. In
tense excitement prevails here over
the coal miners strike, and strong
fears are expressed that a conflict be-
tween the strikers and the men who
refuse to leave their work will result
in riot and bloodshed. The center of
the conflict will be Toluca, where the
miners refuse to quit their work. A
committee went from LaSalle to per-
Fuade them to join the strikers but it
returned with report that the men in
the mines there absolutely refused
to lay down their tools or to
help the strikers in any way.
A meeting of the strikers
was Immediately held at which
this report was presented and 1t was
determined that from 1000 to 5000
men from LaSaue, Peru, Oglesby,
Spring Valley, Seaton, Ladd and Lace
vile should organize and march in q
body to Toluca and compel the men
at work there to desist The mine
owners have provided themselves with
arms and ammunition in abundance
and it is feared that when this army of
strikers reaches Toluca there will be
bloodshed and death. Feeling is rum
ming very high here against the men
who have refused to quit work, and
should they fall into the hands of the
strikers little mercy would be shown
them.
