Caucus Mt Lincoln.

Caucus Mt Lincoln.
Special Dispatch to The Evening Star.
LINCOLN, Neb.. February 9.-Harassed
by the reproaches Of their constituents be-
cause Of the alarming proportions which
the legislative blockade has assumed as
a result of the senatorial deadlock. the Ne
braska legislators have been aroused to
action, and are now bending every nerve
toward an immediate election.
Instead of adjourning yesterday for usual
vacation from Friday till Tuesday. they
determined to hold both Saturday and Mon
day sessions, and ballot on both days as
well. This has not been done before this
session. and indicates the anxious desire Of
tussle for togas.
However, today's vote shows still no ap-
probable change. For the twentieth time
the legislators have cast their ballots with
out producing mo terial alteration in the
standing Of the candidat es from their orig
tnal rank at the commencement of the con-
test.
Edward Resewater, however, who has
from the first stood in the way of caucus
by insisting upon a simultaneous ballot
nominating clause, this morning took great
steps toward the unraveling of the tangie
by Offering to enter upon the following
agreement:
Fifty to nominate and make rules for eau
mated first; II both are not nominated In the
caucus on the same evening the North
Platte candidate Is to be elected in joint
session the succeeding day and caucusing
to continue under the same rules until the
South Platte man is nominated. =.

THEVERY INCEST OF SPORTS
w. A. BRADY TELLS COURT ABOUT
PRIZE FIGHTS.
Principals Are. Pleasant. Amfab1e
Gentlemen, Who Never Hit Each
other Hard at All.

CINCINNATI, Ohio, February 9-Wm.
A. Brady took the stand today in the hear
ing for an injunction against the proposed
Jeffries-Ruhln boxing contest in this city
February 10. He was the last witness for
the defense, and at the conclusion of his
evidence the defense rested it's case.
Lawrence Maxwell at noon began clos
ing argument for the plaintiffs. 1t was the
understanding that each side should have
four hours for closing their cases.
When the hearing was resumed today
Billy Madden was recalled by the de-
Tense and further elucidated the alleged
difference between boxing contests and
prize fights. He declared that prize fight
err uses the bare knuckles while boxers
wear gloves.
VIM. A Brady was then called to the
stand. AS Jeffries' manager, he declared
that the would-be contestants were the
best of friends and would not injure each
other.
He told of the -Corbett fight
at Carson City; showed how Corbett drop
ped to his knee, sustained no injury and
was not knocked out" He vouchsafed the
statement that Corbett is "a model gentle
man." Audiences at boxing contests were
of as high an order as those at the theatar,
he said, adding that he had seen Vice Pres1-
dent-elect Roosevelt at sparring match In
New York.
Characterization on this statement
brought out the fact, however, that Gov.
Roosevelt afterWard signed the bill repeal
ing the Horton law. Brady insisted, how
ever. that the Horton law had been re-
pealed, because the staff of New York
newspaper had been refused tickets to the
boxing contests. .rI
In dilation on the statement that Jeffries
and Rubin are big and strong. but scien-
tific boxers, Brady illustrated his talk by
giving an exhibition of the various points
of boxing, including a clinch and breaka-
way with one Of the attorneys. much to the
amusement of the crowd which packed the
court room.

be. and the inspector Of buildings, Mr.. John
B. Brady, informed him. that when he files

On the way to the fire he passed the dam

trial of Frank Hamilton, the newspaper
reporter, charged with killing Leonard Day.
young millionaire and well known about
town in the billiard parlors Of the hotel, at
an early hour of the morning Of November
. last.
In opening the case for the prosecution
County Attorney Boardman spoke half an
hour, reviewing the alleged incidents lead
ing up to the encounter which resulted in
the fatal stabbing Of Day. He dwelt at
length upon the alleged ill-feeling between
Hamilton and Day, and ended with the dec
laration that before Hamiltons attorneys
and friends had been able to advise him the
prisoner had made confession to police
man, in which, however, he said the pris-
oner had maintained the killing was in self
defense.
DIR. II. IL. Staples, house physician of the
hotel, was the first witness. His testimony
was unimportant, covering only the fact
that he was called and found Day already
dead.
DR.. J. W. Little followed. He told of at
tending the poSt-mortem examination and
described Days wounds The fatal cut, he
said, was one of the left sde Just above
the collar bone, which had severed the SUBJ
clavicular artery and penetrated the apex
of the left lung
Days bloody clothing was placed in evil
dence Each piece was identified and the
whole received in evidence.
Alfred Gary told how he, with two 9TH
ers accompanied Hamilton to the hotel
after / o'clock in the morning. He saw
Day and his party playing billiards. He
heard Hamilton make a remark to Day
about woman whose name was not mem
toned. Hot words and clinch followed
wi ot
see the second clinch. He saw Day stag
ger and fall after they had been separated.
Hamilton had assaulted Day and the lat
ter had seemed to be preparing for it.
