.GlLKlSON CLEARED HERE,
NOW TAKEN TO OMAHA
Mrs. GilkinsOn SHOWS Authority FOR
Activity in Connection with
Hospital stationery.

In police court hearing yesterday morn
ing b. +. Gilkison was fully eNonerated
from the charge of irregularity in solicit
ing business for the benefit of the Jennie
Edmundson hospital and his wife II. l.
Kilkison, had the satisfaction of having
Assistant County Attorney Ross show that
there were very doubtful grounds, IL any
at all upon which to base the charge
against her of obtaining money under
false pretenseB.
According to the explanation given in
court by the Gillisons, their arrest grew
out of a Interpretation of the facts.
The hospital people were led to believe
that the soliciting was done wholly for
advertisements to be inserted in small
booklet containing the annual reports.
while Mrs Gilkison showed that her So
Letting was all done for the blotter page
to be used on 5000 sheets OF letter heads
which she had contracted to furnish the
hospital free OF charge. Mrs. Glkison
showed letter signed by Miss Steinbaugh,
superintendent of the hospital, authorizing
her to make advertising contracts for the
stationery pads
The prosecution put but two witnesses
on the stand, Robert Sprague, manager
OF the Sprague Foundry company, and
! Felix O'Neill Of ONeil Bros, coal dealers.
who said their understanding was that
| the advertisements were for the annual
] booklet. Mrs Gilkison admitted indOrsing
all of the checks given her in payment
/ for the stationery pad advertisements and
showed that she had full right to do So
as the checks represented the cost of the
stationery and her pay for the work
Judge Snyder took the matter under
advisement and required Mrs. Gllkison tC
provide a bond for $50 while he looked
up the law relating to the check indOrse
ments. He stated. however, that he die
not believe Mrs. GilkisOn had committe,
any graver wrong than failure to make
clear the purpose for which she was so
letting the business.
Detective Dunn OF Omaha placed Gnki
son under arrest at the end of the near
Ing and took him TO Omaha to answer &
charge OF forgery in connection with a s.
check passed by him at the Schlitz hotel
purporting 70 be signed by s. A. Lewis o.
Omaha, on whose complaint the arres
| was made.
Gilkison will be arraigned in Omahs
under the charge this morning.
Gllkson denied the charge al the Omaha
police station yesterday afternoon, saying
that he merely signed his own name I,
the check.

INCENDIARIES SET FIRE
TO GEORGE DEALS SALOON
nar Fixtures Ruined and Considerable
Amount of Property
stolen,

The saloon at the corner Of Broadway and
Thirty-seventh street, acquired some time
ago from the estate Of the late John j.
Grove, was broken into shortly before
midnight Sunday night and set on fire In
several places. The rear door was broken
open by the incendlaries and fire started
under the bar beneath the big plate glass
mirror, IN the show case, where the stock
OF cigars was Kept, and AZ another place
IN the north end o. the rconi. The iucen-
diaries also carried away a quantity Of the
goods, y, incipally cigar. When the fire
men reached the place the Sire had almost
entirely ruined the han fixtures. cracked
the mirror and ruined the cigar case.
The motive that prompted the deed is
thought TO be a protest against the eN-
lstence OF the saloon. Although il has been
run in an orderly manner by the present
ownef George Deal. 80 has been the Mecca
OF a large and increasing crowd Of thirsty
fellows from Omaha. who cross the bridge
after the o'clock law closes the saloons

fered by people residing I'm the vicinity.

station, makes 20 difflcult TO provide police
supervision. The belief IS taat whatever
