In the Callahan Case at
Omaha, Neb.

Omaha, Neb., Nov. 9.-The jury In
the case Of James Callahan, after be-

defendant not guilty and the prisoner
was discharged. This is the last echo

charge. The judge discharged the
prisoner. Callahan said after the ver-
dict was given that he had felt sure Of
his discharge.
1t was remarked that there was
now little to prevent Pat Grove from
coming to Omaha. The evidence on
which Callahan has been tried would
probably prevail in case OF Grove be-
ing tried on the same charges, and
County Attorney Shields gave it as his
opinion that Grove would now return.

and charged with being an accessory to the
kidnapping OF Edward A. Cudahy, Jr.. son
Of the millionaire packing house owner, and

vest of his timely advice, good

ing his christian virtues.
Resolved also, That in his death
the church of his choice loses
a Jealous momber. the Sunday

ly sympathize with his stricken
