BOLLN CASE is ADVANCED

United states supscme Court Moves Up
Omaha Ex-City Treasurer's Case.
The case involving the legality Of
the sentence of Henry Bolln, the de-
faulting treasurer of the city OF Oma-
ha, who is now in the penitentiary,
was in the United States supreme
court Monday. The question to be de-
cided by the supreme court is one of
the constitutionality Of the Nebraska
law under which Bolln was convicted.
1t appears that the criminal proceed
ings against him were instituted upon
information filed by the county attor-
ney, and it is argued that the constitu-
ton provides that in all such criminal
proceedings the culprit must be tried
upon an indictment. Upon motion of
the attorneys the case was advanced
and a hearing will be had on the 4th
of December.

HAS KILLED FOUR PEOPLE
Murder, Robbery and Arson a Pastime
with T. r.. Mcbride.

A special from Saltwater, MINI,
says that +. +. Mcbride, a convict ut
the prison, received from Jackson coun-
ty In December last, has made a con
fcssion, showing him TO be one of the
most high-handed murderers in the
country. His confession was made to
Warden Wolfer in n letter written on
October s, and In IL he related the mur-
der Of two officers and a woman at Ge-
neva, H., in 1886, the murder Of the
marshal at ~Ossawatomie, Kan, and
the robbery Of n hardware store and
the shooting of a policeman at Guide
Rock, Neb. Mcbride says his right
name is George Bullock, and that he
was born of respectable people who
have resided In Geneva since 1871. lie
is thirty-three years old, and claims to
have confessed because his conscience
bothered him, and he Is anxious to be
punished for his many crimes.
[It IL believed Guide Rock, Ncb., has
been confused in the above with Table
Rock. There is no known record of n
murder of a policeman at Guide Rock,
but at Table Rock, something over u
year ago, the marshal was shot and
killed by an unknown man whom he
vas trying to arrest.

The insurgents around Calamba and
Angeles have bothered the Americans
lately by shooting a lot of ammunition,
into their opponents camp at long
range. Major C~heatham's battalion of
the Thirty-seventh infantry, a battery
Of the Fifth artillery and q, gatlihg
gun sailed out from Calamba Tuesday,
drove the Filipinos from their trenches
and pursued them for three miles, in.
aicting heavy loss on them. One
American was killed and three of the
Twcnty-first infantry were wounded.
Lieutenant Ferguson, with twenty
scouts of the Thirty-sixth regiment,
reconnoitered nearrLabao, encountered
a party of mounted Filipinos. He
killed six of them, and captured eight,

BANDITS PASS THE PIcKETs
Closely Hunted Murderers Near AtehI-
son Manage to Escape.

Notwithstanding the feet that 500
armed men surrounded the island be-
tween Atchison and Doniphap, Kan,
the two bandits who on last Saturday
night killed one man and wounded
another at Doniphan, and duplicated
the crime near Atchison while being
pursued by a posse, escaped before
daylight. They crept through the
line OF guards, stole a team and made
good their escape.
The body of Policeman Robert Dick
crson. who was killed near the log
barricade made by the robbers was
discovered about 3 o'clock. At the
barricade were found an empty cart
ridge box and a vest, but nothing to
lead to the Identification of the men.
A pool of blood showed that one of the
robbers had been badly wounded. Hun
dreds of men are searching for the
bandits. The bandits seem to have
provided themselves with plenty of
ammunition and they are cool and &C.
curate in the use of their rifles.

THE IOWA BOYS ARE SAFE

The Fifty-irst regiment Of Iowa

that Of Edward Kissicls, company +,

,IAVE MAIN FORCE 70 FACE
British Forces Not Yet Fully
Out Of the Brush.
NEWS FROM GLENCOE
Great Britsin's soldicry In n Tight Place
General yule Threatened by Jou-
bert's Army, aud Not Able to
Protect Dundee Properly.

No news yet received tends to dispel
he apprehension caused by Lord VOL
,elcy's brief summary of the situation.
\ fredericksburg special says that the
,cnsor now permits no messages to be
'ent from the front. Other dispatches
represent the Beers as Boosting that
Dundee is absolutely cut off and assert
hat despite the British victories the
situation is uncertain.
The Pretoria dispatch giving the re-
port of General Joubcrt TO the gov
rnment evidently refers to the battle
1t Glencoe and the reason why Com
nandant Erasmus failed to come to
the assistance of Commandant Meyer
cannot be fathomod.
The victory at Elandslaagte was pro-
i~uctive of no effect for the relief of
d%lcncoe, and the very reticenco and
brevity of Lord Wolscley's communica-
ion are only toe omnibus. 1t seems TO
De worded to prepare the public for
Dad news, and it is only too likely that
General Yule has been compelled to
abandon the wounded and prisoners
1T Dundee because his force is too
'rnall to hold the four and a half miles
Operating Dundee from Glencoe.
IL is said that Commandment Eras-
nus has by this time joined Command
mt General Joubcrt, and that their
combined columns amounts to some
5000 or II 900 men, while the Free
tate Beers, now threatening Lady
,!nith from the east, and u column re-
ported to be coming through Z~ululand,
aust also be rcckoncd with.
Thus the enemy, although their orig
NAL plan, which is supposed to have
been Colonel Scihl's, failed, may fairly
be credited with having isolated Gen
cral Yule's brigade and divided the
Beers forces in Natal. General Yule
may find himself in a tight place, need
ing all his experience in Indian and
Burmese fighting to eztricate himself.
1t is ..iite evident that the war office
has news which has been withheld
from the public, and, If the situation
as here sketched is confirmed Boer
divisions may be expected at other
frontier points.
Sympathizers with the Beers regard
the news of British successes with sus-
picion. Thep claim that nearly all the
news from the Transvaal emanates
from British sources, and is a little un-
reliable.
