Lille Murder Case Sequel-Defend-
ant Swears Out Warrant for Per-
jury Against a State Witness-At-
tOrney and Sheriff Fight Over Case

The Lille murder case, which is now
| pending i'll the supreme court on a mo-
| ton for a rehearing, is again the princi-
| pal topic of conversation on the streets,
| in the business houses and homes of Da-
| vid City. This was started the other
evening when Lena Margaret Lille filed
a complaint before Police Judge Stowell,
charging Charles w. Derby with COM
hitting perjury in the trial of the case
in the district court in February, 1908.
The complaint alleges that Mr.. Derby
testified on oath that on the morning of
Oct. "a, 1902 that being the morning that
Harvey Lille was murdered, that he,
former Sheriff l.. G.. Rem and James s.
Hill, father Of Mrs. Lille, examined the
key and keyhole in the outer door of the
kitchen in the Lille home; that they
showed marks that indicated that clamps
had been used, also that upon eXamina-
ton of the keyhole that it was full of
dust and cObwebs, the inference of this
was to the effect that someone had made
the marks on the key to indicate that
clamps had been used, but the dust and
cobwebs i'll the keyhOle exploded this
theory. The complaint further charges
that this testimony of Mr. Derby was
false, and that Mr.. Derby committed
perjury in his evidence in this respect
Mr.. Derby was arraigned and pleaded
not guilty. He also filed a motion and
affidavit for a change of venue, owing to
the bias and prejudice of Judge Stowell.
This motion was at first overruled, but
later in the evening it was sustained and
the case transferred to w. S. Mccoy.
justice of the peace. The time of trial
has not been set, but in all probability
it will be tried in very few days
Some very peculiar incidents are COLI
nected with this case. In the first place
it is claimed the complaint was prepared
several days ago, and it is further claim
ed that parties who have charge of the
prosecution waited until Sheriff West
was out of town. and they could get into
the Jail. The sheriff went out of the
city the other afternoon, leaving his wife
as jailer when Police Judge Stowell.
accompanied by Matt Miller, succeeded
i'll getting in to see Mrs Lille, and she
signed the complaint. 1t will be remem-
bered that Matt Miller was the principal
attorney in the defense Of Mrs. Lille !
in the district court G. H. Aldrich, who |
assisted Mr.. Miller, it is claimed. posi- |
lively refuses to take any part in this |
prosecution.
The county attorney, r. NJ. Harris |
also positively refused to take any part |
in the prosecution of Mr.. Derby.

NOT TO SEE SCHELL
SECRETARY HITCHCOCK SICK
AND TIRED OF THE MAN.
Private Secretary Scott Says Father
Schell Has Poured Complaints
Into the Department for Years
Repudiated by High Churchmen.

A Washington special says: Secretary
Hitchcock will not under any circum-
stances see Father Schell. Scott Smith,
private secretary, speaking for Hitch
cock, said: Secretary Hitchcock is
through with Schell, and cares not what
he may write, print, say or do. Indian af-
fairs will proceed without reference to
Schell. Mr.. Rosewater saw Secretary
Hitchcock and urged him to hear Schell.
The secretary refused and i'll turn threw
some light into Rosewater's mind con-
corning Schell and his methods. Mr..
Rosewater expressed great surprise when
acquainted with the facts, and minated
that had he known them he might have
changed his plans.
Archbishop Ryan and Father Ketch-
am talked with the secretary and gave
him 70 understand clearly that they re-
pudiated Schell and his acts, and that he
had no standing in the church. Mr.. Rose
water sought to bring about an interview
between Ketcham and Schell, but Ketch-
am declined
We are tired and sick Of Schell who
is evidently act Of sound mind. For years
he has poured in letters, kilograms and
complaints. Two years ago the secretary
took Scbell to Assistant Attorney General
Van Devanter, now judge Of the circuit
court, and asked him to listen to Schell
and do what he could to remedy the al
legged wrongs. Mr.. Van Deyanter was
much annoyed, but dropped important
business and laid the matter before
Judge Brent, of the department of jus
tice, who is Catholic, with instructions
TO do what could be done. Inspectors
were sent, Investigations made and still
Scheh dinged away.
''Scheh saw the president because Mr..
Rosewater went in person and requested
it, and the president could not very well
refuse. However, Secretary Hitchcock
will not see him, or pay any further at
tention to him"

BANK CASHIER SHOT.
Futile Attempt at Robbery at Platte
Center, Neb

MILAN Holden, farm hand, during
the noon hour Tuesday, entered the Platte
Valley Bank, at Platte Center, Neb., de-
manded the banks cash, and on the re-
fusal Of Cashier Barney Schroeder to
surrender it, shot the latter in the breast,
inf1icting a serious but not fatal wound.
He made his escape in q buggy without
securing any money.
Holden was pursued and later captur-
ed by Sheriff Carrig, after the rObbec
had fired at his pursuers.
William Schelp, clerk in the bank,
was in the back room when the robber
entered. As soon as he heard the shot
he gave the alarm. The rObber jumped
into buggy which he had left in a con-
yenient place and made his escape. The
citizens formed posse at once and start
ed in pursuit of the robber. The sheriff
of Platte County at Columbus was also
notified Of the attempted robbery and
shooting and started at once for Platte
Center
A Columbus, Neb., dispatch says:

He took a close range shot at Charles

threw Englehorn in a barbed wire fence,
where he received serious injuries.
The robber was taken back to Platte
Center and Sheriff Carrig had hard work
to save him from mob violence. He was
positively identified by Schroeder, even
though he had changed his clothing and
removed glass eye that he was wearing
when he did the shooting.
The bandit gives the name Of Billy
Holden, and says he has been working
in the beet fields near Oconee for about
two months. His home. he says, is in
Michigan. He is about 80 years of age.
Shroeder's wound, which was at first
thought to be fatal, is now believed to
be not serious. The ball struck button

BIG SHIP S RAM MED.
Steamer Nord America Has a Big
Hole in Her Side.

Ae New York special says: Fourier
hundred Italian steerage passengers re-
turning to Italy on La Felose steamer
Mold America were thrown into excite
ment Wednesday when the ship was ram
med by the New York, New Haven and
Hartford Railroad float No. 6 in the har-
Dor off Liberty island. The float struck
the steamer about forty feet from the
stern and two feet above the water line,
tearing a hole twenty feet long and six
feet high in her plates, and making it i'm
possible for the vessel to continue her
voyage without extensive repairs.
At the moment Of the collision many
Of the steerage passengers were OH the
side Of the ship toward the approaching
float. When the crash came and the
Nord America heeled over alarmingly,
many Of the passengers were greatly
frightened and the crew had much diff
Guilty in reassuring them.
When the collision occurred the Nord
America was going down the upper bay
with full head of steam. She had left
her pier at the foot Of West Thirty
fourth Street at 10 o'clock AS she was
passing the Statue Of Liberty Capt. Raj
70 saw on his starboard bow the heavy
steel float, with a dozen freight cars
aboard, coming directly toward him.
According to Capt. Raffos statement
he thought the captain Of the float would
pass under his stern and kept on his
course, but the float came on at full
speed and struck the steamship.
After the Nord America regained an
even keel and the passengers were quiz
eted the vessel returned to her pier. The
float, which had apparently suffered but
little in the collision, continued on its
course. The Nord America will have to
be locked and repaired, and cannot re-
sumo her trip for some time.
The company is in a dilemma as to
what to do with her steerage passengers
thus left on their hands. The next steam
er Of the company to sail, the Lombar-
dia, due Friday, has every place on
her booked, and the Nord Americas pass
engers cannot be put aboard her

butcher knife. Afterward he tried to
beat out his brains with small ham

ROBBER WAVES EXAMINATION
Bank Cashier Whom He Shot Will
Likely Recover.

William Holden, who attempted to rob
the Platte County Bank at Platte Cen
ter and who shot Cashier 3. II. SchrOe-
der, was arraigned before County Judge
Ratterman Wednesday for his prelimi-
nary hearing. He was charged with
shooting with intent to kill and murder.
He was without counsel. but he seemed
to know what to do and waived his ex-
animation and was held to the district
court in the sum of 81 500. His case will
be called probably next week, as the
court is now insessi0I.
Schroeder, who was shot, was brought
to Columbus and taken to st. Mary's
hospital. He is reported as making a
steady Improvement, and it is thought
now if no complications arise he will
soon make complete recovery.
