THE OMAHA DAILY BEE : SUNDAY , MARCH 13 , 1887.-TWELVT5 P A WEEK OF THE TRIAL ENDED The Lauer Trial Drawing to a Close The Evidence in Defense. THECLOW-HANLEY HIPPODROME The Illeyclo Toiirnnmcnt llnsc Ilnll Matters The O. A. It. Kncftwp- inent Kllloilon the Ilrldgo Utlicr The ijniicr Trial. Mrs. Whitehorn , tlio wife of a preced ing witness , was tliu llrst called in the Lauer trial j'csterday afternoon. Slio testified to the pleasant relations which existed between Mr. and Mrs. Laucr. Mrs. Hilda Nelson , a woman who lived about one hundred feet from the Lauer mansion testified that she used to go to their house about two or three times a week to work ; after the reconcil iation she noticed that Latier always treated his wife kindly. Cornelius J. Sullivan , cx-boookkccpcr nt the nail works , tcstilied that ho knew Mrs. Laucr as well as her husband , for the twenty months after to the reconcil iation. Mrs. Lauer was in the habit of driving down to the nailworks to get her husband and drive home with him. They always seemed affectionate and happy together. "INSTANCKS OF AITKCTION. " "Do you remember any instances of affection ? " a kt' ! J'u.lge Savage. "Yioll , if you call chucking Jior under the chin or her sitting on his lap in stances of affection , then I have seen Biich things. " This piece of testimony caused a low ripple of laughter through the court room. Even Laucr's features relapsed Into a smile. Cross-examined by General Cowin Mr. Sullivan said that he had been in the habit of going to Mr. Laucr's house about once in two months to play cards , just to keep a social acquaintance. Mr. and Mrs. Lauor were always happy. UK I.OOKKI ) TIIKOUUH THK WINDOW. "They were the most happy couple you over saw ? " asked General Cowin. " 1 haven't seen many married couples together. " "Hut they were the most happy cotiplo you oversaw , weren't they ? " "Well , I have seen couples that made worse fools of themselves , " retorted the witness. " 1 suppose , " said General Cowin , "that when married people act very affection ate or make fools of themselves in public it is an index that their private life is not BO happy ? " "I object to that question , " Jsald Judge Savage , laughing ; "this young man is not called as an expert in matrimonial alfairs. " Mr. Sullivan , on further cross-examina tion , testified that ho had several times looked tnrough the olllco window and saw Mr. and Mrs. Lauor at different times sitting in each other's lap. They seemed very affectionate. Airs. Savage was called and testified to the pleasant relations between Mr. and Mrs. Lauer. She was a neighbor of theirs. Mrs. Savage also claimed to have ex amined the broken screen of the cellar window , through which the burglar is said to have escaped. Mrs. Lauer had also given her account of the burglary. Judge Thurston asked for this account , but General Cowin objected. The court sustained the objection , and the defense took an exception. Mrs. Savage testified that on the Satur day afternoon of the tragedy she saw Mr. and Mrs. Lauei who had been out driving go into the house together. That was about 5 o'clock. They seemed happy and affectionate. That evening the witness sat up until about 13 o'clock reading. She put down her curtains at about -that time and then noticed that the windows in the Lauer house were dark. About two hours after she retired she was awakened by hearing a shot. Shortly afterwards she heard some" one say "Oh , Mrs. Savage ! " She imme diately dressed and went over to the Lauer house , meeting Mrs. Lauer. The latter had on only a nightgown and a pair of slippers , with an old shawl thrown over her shoulders. In another portion of her testimony Mrs. Savage stated that her house was so close to that of Lauer's that she could hear everything that transpired in tlio lattor's house and hear him get up in the morning , walk across the lloor , go down the stops , or could hoar Mr. and Mrs. L. frolicking together. 'During all that lime she saw or heard no unpleasantness be tween Mr. and Mrs. Lauer. General Cowiu cross-examined the wit ness pretty sharply. "You watched tlio Lauer house pretty closely , didn't you ? " ho asked. "No , sir. " "You spent a good deal of time that way. didn'tyou ? ' ' "No , sir. " Mrs. Savage testified that her eyesight was very poor , whereupon General Cowin asked sarcastically : "Your eyesight was not too poor toon- able you to look into the Laucr house and watch things , was It ? " "No , sir , It wasn't , " snappishly the witness replied. Continuing Mrs. Savage testified that she had several times visited Mr. and Mrs. Latter and she noticed that ho treated her as respectfully and lovingly . --as any husband she ever saw. Mrs. Savage testified to seeing two men about 0 or 10 o'clock prowling about Lauer's yard , on the night that Lauer first shot at tlio burglar. She watched them until they finally went away. They were prowling about and she took them for suspicious characters and perhaps burglars. COWIN AND TIIUItSTON. During this cross-examination Messrs. Cowin and Thurston had a little un friendly spat. General Cowin asked Mrs. Savage a question which Mr. Tliurs- ton objected to as "immaterial , unpro fessional and Indecent. " "I want that question answered , " de manded General Cowin. ' 'Its no such a question us a gentleman would ask , " retorted Mr. Thurston , Mr. Cowin turned half around and an swered , "We'd practice a long time in this court before we'd get such an ex ample from you. " "No , " sneered the other , "and I never openly Insulted and brow-beat a lady , either. " General Cowin said nothing , but went on cross-examining the witness. The question which Thurston objected to was asked when Mrs. Savage testified that When Lauer shot at the burglar , in August , 1884 , she got up and went out doors to see what the trouble was. Gen eral Cowin asked her : 'Did you got up auit go out doors in your night gown expecting to meet two drunken men in a quarrel or shooting at each other , be- uausu you and your daughter were so afraid of men ? " The witness replied that she wanted tote to goo what the trouble was. nnd therefore - fore went out. Mrs. Savage was then cross-examined about tlui night of the tragedv. She ' testified that when she went into tliu * Laucr house after tliu shooting , she . noticed the night wa dark. She noticed no moon. It might havu been obscured. It was with dilliculty ( hat shu picked her way across to Lauer's houso. i SIIK SAW SHADOWS. Cross-examined again , Mrs. Savage taitl that about 10 o'clock that night show w the rclkctiou of Hallie Luuur's shadow on the curtain. Slio also saw what she supposed was Mr. Laucr stand ing by the stair. "You saw Mr. Laucr's form through the curtain , did you ? " asked General Cowin. "Yes. " "Tim curtain was nearly white and so thin that light passed through it easily and without much obstruction. " The witness hesitated and answered , "yes. " On the night of the shooting Mrs. Sav age tcstillcd , she was attracted to Mr. Lauer's house by hearing the shot. She heard voices in the yard , but heard no noico in Lauor's house , though only eighteen feet away so near that she could hear everything that was said. At this juncture , a stormy scene be tween the attorneys for the date and the counsel for defense , over the admission of Mrs. Savage's testimony as to what Mrs. Laucr had told her labout the llrst hurtrlar. Judge Neville ruled out the testimony and tlio defense took excep tion. tion.John A. McSliano was next called to stand. Ho tcstslied that from the time of Mr. and Mrs. Lauer's reconciliation up to the period of the shooting , they were always friendly. "So far as you saw they were friendly before the trouble , weren't they , "in quired General Cowin. "I guess they were , " wild Mr. McShanc. CI OW AND HANIjEY. It l-ooked Mkc it Fit-lit nut Was n Hank Hippodrome. There have been certain disclosures made concerning the alleged fight be tween Clew and llanlcy fit the exposition annex , Thursday nicht , thr.t MO Calcu lated to detract somewhat from the boasted prowess of tlio "Champion of Colorado. " Clew has neon held up by ils backers and admirers over since lie came to Omaha as a square man who would not take part in a liippndroming irrangomcnt under any circumstances , lie lias himself carded the fact that hems ms been troubled by small fry pugilists who have been trying to induce him to make gate receipt fakes. His answer to these people was that ho would light any ICO pound man in the world for money but would not fight for glory , The ad mirers of such a spirit will doubtless be surprised to learn that the match at tlio exposition annex on Thursday night was made under tlio following first'class hip- podroming agreement : _ Articles of agreement between John P. low and Jack llanloy , March t > , 1S.ST ; We both aereoto box liVe friendly rounds on tlio evening of the 10th day of Mnreh , 18t > 7. : ho receipts over anil above all expenses to by evenly divided between us. Wo mutually ajreo that Mr. Koloy. of Koley it Darst , and .Mr. Kd Hothcry take charge of ! tlio door and box olllee. Wo also agree to divide the re ceipts before either of us appear oil the stage to box. Wo agree to use six-ounce gloves. JACK ( J. llANLl'.V , JOHX P. Ot.OW. Previous to the signing of this agree ment a "flash" set of articles had been signed , in which it was stipulated that Clew should forfeit $100 in event of his failure to knock llanloy out in live rounds. This money was to be placed in .Jack Morrison's hands , but did not ma terialize. The public was deceived lee in regard to the manner in which tlio match was brought about , and as it seems to bo in the style now to expose the crooked in sports , the facts may be given. From Clow's card in the paper it wii3 inferred that ho had made the match to teach a lesson to some of tlio small fry puirilists" who , ho alleged , had been bothering him. The facts snow a very different state of affairs. A short time before Hanlo.r had his match at the with the "Marine " Clew annex , approached preached him and wanted to nuiKo a match , llanley objected on the ground that ho had one match on his hand al ready and could not make another. Clew then tried to induce llanley to postpone the match with LuHlanchc and arrange one with him. This llanley refused to do and the matter was dropped until after LaUlancho's visit to Ouuilia , during which tlio match was made for the fight to a finish between llanley and Lalilancho which will take place to-morrow night in St. Paul. Immediately after tins Clew again went to llanloy and wanted to make a match , llanlcy stated that on account of his match with Lalilancho he could not think of going into another light. Then it was , according to the statement of Hanloy and his backer , Ed Holhery , that Clew proposed the hippo- draining arrangement shown above. Clew , it is assorted , begged of llanloy to maka the match , that they would draw a good house and that he needed tlio money badly. After a good deal of preliminary work the match was made and the above agree ment signed. Hanloy was m no condi tion for the match and would not have thought of entering it had lie an idea that it was to bo anything different than had been agreed. A few davs before the light Clew gave it out among his friends that ho was going after llanloy and would try to knock him out. Hanluv hoard of this and went to Clew and asked him about it. Clew replied that ho had been making such cracks but claimed that it was done for the bcnolit of the Houso. Ho assured Hanloy that they would go on and make a lively mill that would satisfy the house and result in a draw. With this understanding llanloy went into the ring in a condition that would have warranted his being in bed. Clew saw this and took a mean advan tage of it by rushing llanloy and strikins' him foul the first dash. The result is well known. Clew succeeded in getting a little cheap notoriety and some money out of tlio fight and left llanloy in a very embarrassing condition. There is no question but that Clew would whip llanley in a light to a finish and there is no question but that ho could not stop him in live rounds witii any kind of cloves. PUINOEWINS. Tlio nioyclo Tournament Ijust Night A. Great Crowd. The bicycle tournament at the exposi tion building last nicht was a gVcat suc cess , both so far as concerns the merits of tlio different riders and tlio attendance. That the audience was largo One of 3,500 people was duo partly to the immense amount of free advertising that John S. Prince lias received lately , and partly to the love of the Omaha public for fair play. The si/b of the audience was in fact a cmu pleto vindication of Mr. Prince , and shows how little stock Omaha people take in the malicious and utterly ground less attacks that have been made upon him. Thi * is certainly gratifying not 011)3' ) to Mr. Prince but also to his friends , who rallied well to his support last night. The first race was a mile dash between two colored youths , John Hiccton and Molt. The latter gave his opponent half a lap start and lost. Time U:45. : The second event was a ten-mile race betweon-Charles W" . Asliintrur and Frank Dingloy. During the first five miles Dingloy spurted and gained over half a hi ) ) on the Colorado man. Tlio latter , however , by a tremendous spurt of spcei made up the distance , and passing Ding- ley , finished over a lap ahead of him Time aifl'J. Dingloy was in bad shape having failed to recover from the depressing pressing effects of Ins snowball-Icicle ex poriotico. Considering the condition he was in ho made a remarkable showing. It was nearly u quarter of 10 o'clock when the two principal contestants o thi ! evening , Prince and Kek , made theii appearance on the track. They were fitartcd on opposite Bides of tuu track- on the north side andPrlnco on the south. During the llrst seven miles which were ridden extraordinarily fast , Kck gained on Prince , getting almost within twenty yards of his wheel , The lirst mile .being accomplished in U:5l. : ! Prince' however , gradually pulled away from him ami gained one lap. He finished the winner in the tune of 1 hour , 7 minutes and 54 seconds. The race was the most exciting over run on this trackand the crowd whooped and yelled from the start. Even the ladies contributed to the noise. A OAIII ) .

During the high wind that prevailed yesterday afternoon Fred Racek met an untimely death on the west end of the Union Pacific bridsro. Ho was on his way to his boarding house on South street and was crossing the approach to the bridge. Ho had his hat pulled down over his ovcs to protect them from the flying sand and was grad ually feeling Ids way along the ties , when ho was struck by a passitur engine and hurled from the bridge. He fell a distance of nearly thirty foot and landed on the pavement on the Sixth street crossing. The cloud of dust that was blowing at the time so obscured the young man that his presence on the track was not observed by the engineer. Racok was picked up and removed 'to St. Joseph's hospital , where ho died at 5 o'clock. His back was broken by the fall and he was otherwise cut and bruised. The deceased was but sixteen years of age , and has lived in Omnlia but a few weeks. His parents live at Stanton , Neb.
