THE MURDERER HARRISON.
INTERVIEW WITH A 1IUI.I.ETIN UK PORTER
VERY LITTLE TO SAY SORRY, 1IUT
CAN'T HELP IT.
Tho murdoror of Joo Swoboda, William
Harrison, is well-known In Cairo. Ho
has for a long tlmo been bar-tender In tho
DelmonlcO saloon, Commercial avenue,
and -has tho reputation of n quarrelsome
and dangerous person. Ho Is small of
stature, oyes of light gray, light lmlr nnd
comploxlon, with a doubtful kind of expres
sion altogether indescribable. Although
n married man, with ono child, ho has
been for long tlmo a constant frequenter
of bawdy houses, and of lato has been in
fatuated by tho wiles of Grnco Windsor's
not very prepossessing sister. His friends
havo concluded to rest his dcfeiiao on tho
plea of insanity, but cannot, probably,
iiiako it good, slnco ho has novcr been
suspected of any lack of good sense.
Ycstcrdny morning tho representative
of The Bulletin visited the county jail,
whero Harrison is confined, nnd whs al
lowed by Jailer Fitzgerald to Interview
tho prisoner.
Our reporter found him In a coll on tho
west side with two other prisoners. Ho
was calm, and guarded in his conversa
tion, having doubtlessly profited by the
advice of his counsel, Mr. D. T. Lincgar,
and his friend Mr. Henry Winter, who
had just left him. After hand-shaking
the following conversation ensued :
Reporter God mornlnir, Billy.
Harrison (coming to tho door) Good
mornlnir.
Ilrnoricr Am sorrv to soo vou in tins
tlx, Billy, but suppose it can't Lo helped
now.
Harrison I am sorry tho thlnrr hap
petied, but 1 can't help it nowj its dono,
and I'll havo to do tho best 1 can.
Hrporier When will your preliminary
examination take place.
Harrison 1 don't know, out 1 sunposo
in two or three days.
lltporler its pretty rouiru to uo con
fined in such n place.
Harrison it Is inai: out then .Mr
Fitzgerald troats mo mighty well, and you
bet ho won't loose anything hy it.
Jieporterllow many aro thero in 1110
cell with you.
Jiarnson incro nro inrco 01 ut: it is
pretty close for tlirooporsons. Say, don't
you fellows do nnythini; against me. 1
can favor mo if you will.
This was all. Ho was as closo as
corked bottlo.

Tho colored nail-drivers of tho city

Mr. John Clancy protests that tho north

to agrco with John.

Hi 'J : did not know whether Stump had
ever informed .Mr. Galliglier ot tlio con
dition of the boilers.
DR. WAIlD.NKIt
Testified That tlio deceased died from
tho effects of n very severe scald, the
xploslon of 11 steam boiler; ho was not
present when tho deceased died;
deceased did not say any
thing about tho explosion, nor did ho
maku any allusion to tlio muter, nth or
than that hn had 11 pretty hail citsu ; tho
deceased died in what physicians would
call n shock, which in this case was the re

lasts about fortv-eluht hours, when it re

Tho first witness was Kliza, nn inmate
of tho Windsor bawdy house, who testified,
tho first sho know of any difficulty Swo
boda, who was in n room on the first floor
of tho houso with Harrison, Ida Windsor,
and others, said to Harrison : " Billy, I
am going lo stay with Ida to-night."
Harrison roplied : "I'll bo G d
d d if you do. This is my girl." Har
rison then continued to nbuso Swoboda,
calling him soveral times a d d s n
of a b h. Swoboda tried to pacify his
assailant, but could not do so. Both then
roso to their feet, and passed into tho hall,
Harrison following Swoboda still abusing
him, and Swobodn tolling him that ho did
not want to quarrel. Ida Windsor, tho
causo of tho tragedy, then ran out of tho
opposito door, nnd hid in alarm. Whor.
the brawlers got into the hall, Harrison
caught Swoboda by tho coat collar, and
saying: "You d d s n of n b b,
I'll shoot you," drow his pistol, and fired.
Swoboda then caught Iiarrison by tho
neck nnd knocked him down.
Ida Windsor and the other woman who
was present testified substantially thosamo
as Eliza.
Robert Rhoutan testified that ho was
standing on tho sidownlk bclew tho post
ofllco, in front of Henry Latnor s saloon,
nnd was told by a negro thut a man had
boon shot at Windsor's, Ho ran down and
into tho hall; saw Harrison nnd Swolioda
scuflling, Iiarrison was in tho floor and
Swoboda on top of him. Harrison turned
Swoboda and got up. Hu ran for a chair
and attempted to striko Swoboda with it,
saying: "You G d d d s n of n b h
I'll kill you." Rhcutan caught Harrison,
and said: "Did you shoot him 7" Harri
son replied: "ldid; but I want you to
swear that I did not tlmtho shot himself,'
The jury, aftor consultation, returned
the following verdict:

His Honor, tho Mayor, with a promp
titude that must havo astonished his
friends, signed tho ordinances in relation
to the proposed Issuing of bonds to tako
up over-duo bonds, tho extension of Syca-
moro street and tho protection of tho Uni

in great doubt when he confronted tho or

In a speech mado boforo Judgo Bross
on Wednesday n speech which almo
amounted to au argument Mr. Lincgar
charged, in defenso of his client, thut Mr
Robertson, tho policeman, had entered tli
houso of his client without authority, and
without process of law had confined her
in jail. In doing this duty Line,
declared f,ich outrages must bo stopped
and culled tho nttontlon of Mayor Lnm
den, who was prwont nt tho trial, to tho
fact ho was commenting upon. The
mayor, In his placid manner, asked
Mr. Robertson if ho did not know ho
shouldn't havo dono us ho did, and there
left tho matter. Maybo if it had been nny
other officer, Mr. Lansdcn would have sus
pended him, but, (so we havo been
informed by City Attorney Pope), Mr.
Robertson has given His Honor notice that
if ho is not rctninoJ upon tho force, ho
will bo compolled to go back on the repub
lican party, and, as a matter of course,
this being tho caso, Mayor Lansdcn would
not daro jeopardize tho chances of Grant
n tho pending presidential canvass by
driving Mr. Robertson over to tho Liberals.
If ho should do so, two chances to one,
Mr. Munn would conclude that lie is not
proper man to roccivo tltn Fcdoral

Ho believes tho Trustees of tho Properly
should bo compelled to mako the repara

has nut yet enlightened us as to how the
compulsion is to bo applied. Suppnso tlio
Trustees woro to sny to the city : " Re'
pair tho levees yourself. Wo havo only u
common Interest hero with other property
holders, and if thoy aro willing to
stand tho destruction of their prop
erty, wo nro too." What could wo do
about it 7 It may bo said: "Why,
these Trustees agreed to build and
maintain about tho city n pormancnt
lovoe, nnd if thoy don't do so thoy nro ro
sponslblo at law." Exactly ; but thoy aro
not responsible until tho damago is dono,
and If tliolr fault shall wipo out tho value
of their property ut the tlmo it Inflicts tlio
darnngo on us of what valuo would a judg
mcnt against them bo ? Does Mr. Swttyno
sco the tho point; nnd won't it soon occur
tothosowlm'nro always persisting in having
a fight with tho Trustees that tho better
way for both tho city und
the Trustees Is to g"t on
peaceably together' Wo agrco with Mr.
Swayuo und -Mr. Wilson und Mr. Coinings,
und tho othor vory active bolligorcnt nnti
monopolist citizens, that Cairo wc.uld have
been fortunuto to-dny If its site had been
on a lull, against which tho floods of tho

fact would havo ronderod n monopoly un
necessary to thu preparation of the silo for
human habitation nnd havo relieved us
of tho infliction of trustees who won't stir
rendor their trust without a consideration;
hut, then, tho site of Cnln is not a hill
but a pieco of ground over which for
inerly two rivers run, and to redocm which
required capital and madu a monopoly
of tho ground a iiocosslty, It would ho n
high compliment to tho unselfishness of

and without price, but tho Proporty won't
